Biomimetic Materials to Fabricate Artificial Cells

Congratulations to the team! In this Chemical Reviews, we have reviewed the development of cell and bionic strategies and focused on the efforts of bottom-up strategies in artificial cell construction. Different from starting with existing living organisms, we have also discussed the construction of artificial cells based on biomimetic materials, from simple cell scaffolds to multiple compartment systems, from the construction of functional modules to the simulation of crucial metabolism behaviors, or even to the biomimetic of communication networks. All of them could represent an exciting advance in the field. In addition, we will make a rough analysis of the bottlenecks in this field. Meanwhile, the future development of this field has been prospecting. This “Biomimetic Materials to Fabricate Artificial Cells” may bridge the gap between materials engineering and life sciences, forming a theoretical basis for developing various life-inspired assembly materials.
