“…7 Of these, polyphosphazenes 8 are quite advanced in biomedical applications, 9,10 with uorinated derivatives having FDA approval as stent coatings 11 and vaccine adjuvants in advanced clinical trials. 12,13 Thermoresponsive polyphosphazenes have been extensively investigated, in particular for their use as thermosensitive injectable hydrogels, with, among others, delivery or siRNA for gene silencing, stem cell delivery 14 and combinatorial cancer therapy. 15 Due to a widely observed phenomenon for amphiphilic polymers, 16,17 thermoresponsive polymers commonly possess a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) in aqueous solutions, above which the macromolecules collapse, followed oen by agglomeration and/or gelation.…”
