Abstract
Semiconducting polymer (SP) is a promising photothermal agent in the antitumor application, but the co-delivery of the second near-infrared window (NIR-II)-based SPs with chemotherapeutic drug (e.g., doxorubicin (DOX)) remains a challenge. Here, SPs were firstly improved via backbone and alkyl side-chain engineering, and afterward, SPs and pH-sensitive prodrug copolymer self-assembled into a nanoparticle for a photoacoustic (PA)-imaging guided combination of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy. SP-encapsulated nanoparticles exhibited a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 45% at a relatively low power level of NIR irradiation (0.3 W/cm2 for 5 min). DOX was rapidly released in response to the acidic lysosomal environment. PA and fluorescence imaging confirmed that the photothermal therapy effectively drove DOX penetration inside tumor tissue, and it resulted in the killing of the surviving tumor cells from hyperthermia. The synergistic effect of SP-based photothermal therapy and DOX-induced chemotherapy was verified in vivo. Overall, the co-delivery of the SP and DOX using pH-sensitive nanoparticles represents a feasible strategy for photothermal therapy with potentially synergistic drug effects. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Recent years have yielded great progress in semiconducting polymers (SPs)-based photothermal therapy for anticancer treatment. However, studies about molecular weight and side-chain of SPs on photothermal conversion efficiency are limited, and investigation of controlled codelivery with chemotherapeutic drug is lacking. Here, we improved the SPs performance via backbone and side-chain engineering, and afterward offered a pH-sensitive DOX-conjugated amphiphilic copolymer to encapsulate SPs. SP-encapsulated nanoparticles exhibited high photothermal conversion efficiency at a clinically feasible power level of NIR irradiation. NIR irradiation-generated hyperthermia not only killed tumor cells but also promoted DOX penetration inside the tumor tissue to ablate the tumor cells that survived hyperthermia. The synergistic effect of SP-based photothermal therapy and DOX-induced chemotherapy was verified in vivo.

Abstract
In recent years, the combination treatment of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as an efficient approach to improve anticancer activity. Here, we combine zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) and CuSe to build a multifunctional therapeutic platform (ZIF-67@CuSe@PVP) with an efficient chemo-photothermal therapy for cancer treatment. ZIF-67@CuSe@PVP nanoparticles were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-vis, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms. These nanoparticles exhibited excellent pH-responsive doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) releases due to the decomposition of ZIF-67 and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (36%) without apparent deterioration during three cycles. In vivo biodistribution evaluation revealed the passive tumor-targeting ability of ZIF-67@CuSe@PVP@DOX via the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. Both in vitro and in vivo data demonstrated excellent anticancer efficacy of ZIF-67@CuSe@PVP in tumor-bearing mice. This multifunctional therapeutic platform could have certain clinical application potential.

Abstract
With rapid emergence of multi-drug resistant microbes, it is imperative to seek alternative means for infection control. Optical waveguides are an auspicious delivery method for precise administration of phototherapy. Studies have shown that phototherapy is promising in fighting against a myriad of infectious pathogens (i.e. viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa) including biofilm-forming species and drug-resistant strains while evading treatment resistance. When administered via optical waveguides, phototherapy can treat both superficial and deep-tissue infections while minimizing off-site effects that afflict conventional phototherapy and pharmacotherapy. Despite great therapeutic potential, exact mechanisms, materials, and fabrication designs to optimize this promising treatment option are underexplored. This review outlines principles and applications of phototherapy and optical waveguides for infection control. Research advances, challenges, and outlook regarding this delivery system are rigorously discussed in a hope to inspire future developments of optical waveguide-mediated phototherapy for the management of infection and beyond.

Abstract
Phototheranostics have gained more and more attention in the field of cancer diagnosis and therapy. Among a variety of fluorophores for phototheranostics, semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (SPNs), which are usually constructed by encapsulating hydrophobic semiconducting polymers (SPs) with amphiphilic copolymers, have shown great promise. As second near-infrared (NIR-II) fluorescence imaging has both higher imaging resolution and deeper tissue penetration compared with first near-infrared (NIR-I) fluorescence imaging, NIR-II fluorescent SPNs have been widely designed and prepared. Among numerous structural units for semiconducting polymers (SPs) synthesis, thiadiazoloquinoxaline (TQ) has been proved as an efficient electron acceptor unit for constructing NIR-II fluorescent SPs by reacting with proper electron donor units. Herein, we summarize recent advances in TQ-based SPNs for NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided cancer photothermal therapy. The preparation of TQ-based SPNs is first described. NIR-II fluorescence imaging-based and multimodal imaging-based phototheranostics are sequentially discussed. At last, the conclusion and future perspectives of this field are presented.

Abstract
Even with all the recent technological improvements, cancer remains to be the disease with the highest impact on global health. Due to obviously disadvantages or limitations on traditional therapy, researchers are engaged to search for safely and effective methods in cancers' therapy. Photothermal therapy (PTT) has been employed in treating cancers and several of other diseases. In this study, novel thermosensitive and targeting nanoparticle, C225-silane-F127/gold nanorod (C-SFGR) combined with PTT was investigated in EGFR-overexpressing xenografts mice model. For better light to heat transformation exposed with 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser, the diameter of thermosensitive C-SFGR was designed at about 120 nm. To address the biocompatibility, the viability of A549 cell line was greater than 80% under high concentrations of C-SFGR (1,000 μg/mL), indicating its low cytotoxicity. After intravenous injection of C-SFGR and combined with NIR treatment for 2 min in A549 bearing mice, tumors were almost completely shriveled after 2 weeks. For developing as theranostic agent, C-SFGR was then labeled with 67Ga, with radiochemical purity over 98%. These present results suggest that C-SFGR could be also applied as a SPECT-imaging agent and as an effective antitumor agent.

Abstract
Molybdenum is a trace dietary element necessary for the survival of humans. Some molybdenum-bearing enzymes are involved in key metabolic activities in the human body (such as xanthine oxidase, aldehyde oxidase and sulfite oxidase). Many molybdenum-based compounds have been widely used in biomedical research. Especially, MoS2-nanomaterials have attracted more attention in cancer diagnosis and treatment recently because of their unique physical and chemical properties. MoS2 can adsorb various biomolecules and drug molecules via covalent or non-covalent interactions because it is easy to modify and possess a high specific surface area, improving its tumor targeting and colloidal stability, as well as accuracy and sensitivity for detecting specific biomarkers. At the same time, in the near-infrared (NIR) window, MoS2 has excellent optical absorption and prominent photothermal conversion efficiency, which can achieve NIR-based phototherapy and NIR-responsive controlled drug-release. Significantly, the modified MoS2-nanocomposite can specifically respond to the tumor microenvironment, leading to drug accumulation in the tumor site increased, reducing its side effects on non-cancerous tissues, and improved therapeutic effect. In this review, we introduced the latest developments of MoS2-nanocomposites in cancer diagnosis and therapy, mainly focusing on biosensors, bioimaging, chemotherapy, phototherapy, microwave hyperthermia, and combination therapy. Furthermore, we also discuss the current challenges and prospects of MoS2-nanocomposites in cancer treatment.

Abstract
With the growth of photoenergy harvesting and thermal engineering, photothermal materials (PTMs) have attracted substantial interest due to their unique functions such as localized heat generation, spatiotemporal thermal controllability, invisibility, and light harvesting capabilities. In particular, π-conjugated organic PTMs show advantages over inorganic or metallic PTMs in thin film applications due to their large light absorptivity, ease of synthesis and tunability of molecular structures for realizing high NIR absorption, flexibility, and solution processability. This review is intended to provide an overview of organic PTMs, including both molecular and polymeric PTMs. A description of the photothermal (PT) effect and conversion efficiency (ηPT ) for organic films is provided. After that, the chemical structure and optical properties of organic PTMs are discussed. Finally, emerging applications of organic PT films from the perspective of spatiotemporal thermal engineering principles are illustrated.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) has been widely applied in cancer therapy as a result of its non-invasive, localized treatment and good therapeutic effect. In general, the final therapeutic effect of PTT mainly depends on the photothermal materials, which can be further considered to be determined by the photothermal conversion efficiency, biocompatibility, and photothermal stability of photothermal materials. In this review, photothermal materials including inorganic materials, organic materials, and organic-inorganic composite materials in recent years have been summarized in terms of the mechanism, preparation, and cancer therapy applications. In the end, the perspectives and obstacles in their further development are overviewed.

Abstract
Targeting B7-H3 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells has antitumor potential for therapy of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in preclinical studies. However, CAR T cell therapy remains a formidable challenge for the treatment of solid tumors due to the heterogeneous and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Nanozymes exhibit merits modulating the immunosuppression of the tumor milieu. Here, a synergetic strategy by combination of nanozymes and CAR T cells in solid tumors is described. This nanozyme with dual photothermal-nanocatalytic properties is endowed to remodel TME by destroying its compact structure. It is found that the B7-H3 CAR T cells infused in mice engrafted with the NSCLC cells have superior antitumor activity after nanozyme ablation of the tumor. Importantly, it is found that the changes altered immune-hostile cancer environment, resulting in enhanced activation and infiltration of B7-H3 CAR T cells. The first evidence that the process of combination nanozyme therapy effectively improves the therapeutic index of CAR T cells is presented. Thus, this study clearly supports that the TME-immunomodulated nanozyme is a promising tool to improve the therapeutic obstacles of CAR T cells against solid tumors.

Abstract
Polypyrrole (PPy) is a conductive polymer and widely applied in different applications owing to its broadband absorption in the UV-visible, near-infrared (NIR), and short-wave-infrared (SWIR) spectrum, excellent conductivity, and strong photothermal effect. In this work, we explored for the first time the photothermal effect of PPy nanoparticles (PPy-NPs) in a photothermal-induced detector structure and developed a new type of air-stable hybrid PPy-NPs/Pt photodetector (PD) with NIR/SWIR sensitivity. By combining PPy-NPs with a platinum (Pt)-resistive pattern, we fabricated PPy-NPs/Pt PDs that are sensitive to illumination in the wavelength range from 800 to 2000 nm. Under the illumination of λ = 1.5 μm, the maximum photoresponsivity was measured to be ∼1.3 A/W with a 131 μs photoresponse rise time. Owing to the excellent material stability from both PPy-NPs and the Pt pattern, the current photodetectors show long-term stable photoresponsivity when they were stored in air without encapsulation. The results suggest that the PPy-NPs/Pt hybrid PDs are promising candidates for a new type of low-cost and broadband due to their multiple advantages such as free of toxic heavy metals, air stability, and solution processing.

Abstract
Tungsten disulfide nanotubes (WS2-NTs) were found to be very active for photothermal therapy. However, their lack of stability in aqueous solutions inhibits their use in many applications, especially in biomedicine. Few attempts were made to chemically functionalize the surface of the NTs to improve their dispersability. Here, we present a new polymerization method using cerium-doped maghemite nanoparticles (CM-NPs) as magnetic nanosized linkers between the WS2-NT surface and pyrrole-N-propionic acid monomers, which allow in situ polymerization onto the composite surface. This unique composite is magnetic, and contains two active entities for photothermal therapy—WS2 and the polypyrrole. The photothermal activity of the composite was tested at a wavelength of 808 nm, and significant thermal activity was observed. Moreover, the polycarboxylated polymeric coating of the NTs enables effective linkage of additional molecules or drugs via covalent bonding. In addition, a new method was established for large-scale synthesis of CM-NPs and WS2-NT-CM composites.

Abstract
The outstanding versatility of graphene for surface functionalization has been exploited by its decoration with synthesized polypyrrole (PPy) nanoparticles (NPs). A green, facile, and easily scalable for mass production nanocomposite development was proposed, and the resulting PPy@Graphene was implemented in chemoresistive gas sensors able to detect trace levels of ammonia (NH3) under room-temperature conditions. Gas exposure for 5 min revealed that the presence of nanoparticles decorating graphene entail greater sensitivity (13-fold) in comparison to the bare graphene performance. Noteworthy, excellent repeatability (0.7% of relative error) and a low limit of detection of 491 ppb were obtained, together with excellent long-term stability. Besides, an extensive material characterization was conducted, and vibration bands obtained via Raman spectroscopy confirmed the formation of PPy NPs, while X-ray spectroscopy (XPS) revealed the relative abundance of the different species, as polarons and bipolarons. Additionally, XPS analyses were conducted before and after NH3 exposure to assess the PPy aging and the changes induced in their physicochemical and electronic properties. Specifically, the gas sensor was tested during a 5-month period, demonstrating significant stability over time, since just a slight decrease (11%) in the responses was registered. In summary, the present work reports for the first time the use of PPy NPs decorating graphene for gas-sensing purposes, revealing promising properties for the development of unattended gas-sensing networks for monitoring air quality.

Abstract
By delivering the idea of green and safe hydrogen energy and novel photothermal therapy to the biomedical field, engineering of therapeutic nanomaterials for treatment of major diseases (such as cancer) holds great significance. In this work, a novel PdMo bimetallene was synthesized by a solvothermal reduction method, and it was explored and applied in the field of anti-tumor therapy for the first time. The absorption peak of the PdMo bimetallene can be precisely adjusted in the NIR biological window (700-1350 nm) only by changing the synthesis time. At the same time, it also shows strong light absorption and high photothermal conversion efficiency. Specifically, the photothermal conversion efficiencies at 808 nm, 980 nm and 1064 nm are 43.1%, 51.7% and 69.15%, respectively. Surprisingly, a PdMo bimetallene is an efficient catalyst, which can effectively promote hydrogen production from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane (AB) under acidic and photothermal conditions. Benefitting from these excellent properties, a multifunctional composite nano therapeutic agent (PdMo@AB@HA) was developed via layer-by-layer surface modification with AB and hyaluronic acid (HA). In this way, the synergistic PTT/hydrogen therapy of PdMo@AB@HA composite nanosheets in the NIR-I and NIR-II windows (808 nm, 980 nm, and 1064 nm) on mouse tumor xenografts of different depths was realized. Furthermore, the controlled release of hydrogen, targeted endocytosis, efficient eradication of tumors of different depths and high biosafety were systematically proved in vitro and in vivo. This work not only provides a novel and efficient theranostic nanoplatform for efficient cancer theranostics, but also provides a new strategy for the development of safe and efficient new anti-tumor therapies.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy allows spatiotemporal control of the treatment effect only at the site of the disease and provides promising opportunities for imaging-guided precision therapy. However, the development of photothermal transduction agents (PTAs) for tumor-specific accumulation and precision imaging, avoiding toxicity to the surrounding healthy tissue, is still challenging. Herein, a cyclooxygenase-2-specific small-organic-molecule-based PTA (Cy7-TCF-IMC) is developed, which can self-assemble into nanosaucers having unique photothermal and photoacoustic properties. Specifically, the self-assembling nature of Cy7-TCF-IMC affords preferential accumulation in tumors arising from synergistic passive enhanced permeability and retention effects and active targeting for precision theranostics. Antitumor therapy results show that these Cy7-TCF-IMC nanosaucers are highly photoacoustic imaging-guided PTAs for tumor ablation. These findings suggest the self-assembled Cy7-TCF-IMC nanosaucer represents a new paradigm as a single-component supramolecular medicine that can synergistically optimize passive and active targeting, thereby improving the therapeutic index of cancer and future clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Metallic nanostructures can improve the production of singlet oxygen (1O2) of a photosensitizer during photodynamic therapy (PDT) . Engineering a high performance nanoparticle is mandatory for an appropriate use of plasmonic nanostructures in PDT. Metal enhanced singlet oxygen generation requires the use of nanoparticles with high scattering efficiency, capable of inducing a significant electric field enhancement and with plasmon peak overlapping the photosensitizer absorption spectrum. Herein, we report the optimization of nanoshells structure (silica core radius and gold shell thickness) to increase the singlet oxygen production by Methylene Blue photosensitizer. A 3D Full-wave field analysis was used to evaluate the plasmonic spectrum, scattering efficiency and localized field intensity of Au nanoshells as a function of their dimensions. The 40/20 core radius/shell thickness optimized gold nanoshell showed 75% scattering efficiency and field enhancement up to 35 times. Metal-enhanced singlet oxygen generation was observed and quantified for Methylene Blue water solution with gold nanoshell particles. Moreover, the influence of the irradiation time and the metallic nanostructures concentration on metal enhanced singlet oxygen generation were also appraised. The experimental results showed that the use of gold nanoshell improved 320% the 1O2 production in a MB solution. The approach used to select a high performance metallic nanoparticle provides insights on engineering plasmonic structures for metal enhanced singlet oxygen generation for PDT.

Abstract
Some infectious or malignant diseases such as cancers are seriously threatening the health of human beings all over the world. The commonly used antibiotic therapy cannot effectively treat these diseases within a short time, and also bring about adverse effects such as drug resistance and immune system damage during long-term systemic treatment. Phototherapy is an emerging antibiotic-free strategy to treat these diseases. Upon light irradiation, phototherapeutic agents can generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) or induce a temperature increase, which leads to the death of targeted cells. These two kinds of killing strategies are referred to as photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), respectively. So far, many photo-responsive agents have been developed. Among them, the metal-organic framework (MOF) is becoming one of the most promising photo-responsive materials because its structure and chemical compositions can be easily modulated to achieve specific functions. MOFs can have intrinsic photodynamic or photothermal ability under the rational design of MOF construction, or serve as the carrier of therapeutic agents, owing to its tunable porosity. MOFs also provide feasibility for various combined therapies and targeting methods, which improves the efficiency of phototherapy. In this review, we firstly investigated the principles of phototherapy, and comprehensively summarized recent advances of MOF in PDT, PTT and synergistic therapy, from construction to modification. We expect that our demonstration will shed light on the future development of this field, and bring it one step closer to clinical trials.

Abstract
Herein, PPy@MnO2 nanocomposites were first harvested by anchoring MnO2 nanosheets on polypyrrole (PPy) nanoparticles via an in situ redox reaction, then polyethylene glycol (PEG) modifier and methylene blue (MB) photosensitizer were linked through electrostatic interactions to obtain PPy@MnO2-PEG-MB nanoarchitectures. PPy nanoparticles ensure photothermal therapy (PTT) ability and MnO2 nanosheets ameliorate tumor hypoxia for enhanced photodynamic therapy (PDT). Therefore, a multifunctional nanotherapeutic system was constructed for the combined PTT/PDT of tumors. For extracellular photothermal properties, the optimal temperature elevation was 52.6 °C with 54.4% photothermal conversion efficiency. The extracellular PDT ability was measured by detecting 1O2 generation; more 1O2 was produced under acidic conditions in the presence of H2O2 (a simulated tumor microenvironment). The effective cellular uptake of the nanotherapeutic system in HeLa cells was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). CLSM also indicated that more 1O2 was generated by the nanotherapeutic system as compared to free MB in HeLa cells, confirming the amelioration of tumor hypoxia by MnO2 nanosheets. MTT assays demonstrated that the nanotherapeutic system possessed superior biocompatibility without laser irradiation, and the lowest cell viabilities for single PTT and PDT groups were 13.78%, 38.82% respectively, while there was only 1.29% cell viability in the combined PTT and PDT group. These results suggest that the strategy of assembling PPy with MnO2 for a multifunctional PTT and enhanced PDT nanoplatform was realized, and opens up an unimpeded approach for integrating photothermal reduction materials with MnO2 for use in synergistic PTT and PDT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Theranostic nanoparticles (NPs) have achieved rapid development owing to their capacity for personalized multimodal diagnostic imaging and antitumor therapy. However, the efficient delivery and bulk accumulation of NPs in tumors are still the decisive factors in improving therapeutic effect. It is urgent to seek other methods to alters tumor microenvironment (like vascular permeability and density) for enhancing the efficiency of nanoparticles delivery and accumulation at the tumor site. METHODS Herein, we developed a Raman-tagged hollow gold nanoparticle (termed as HAuNP@DTTC) with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) property, which could be accumulated efficiently in tumor site with the pre-irradiation of low-dose (3 Gy) X-ray and then exerted highly antitumor effect in breast cancer model. RESULTS The tumor growth inhibition (TGI) of HAuNP@DTTC-induced photothermal therapy (PTT) was increased from 60% for PTT only to 97%, and the lethal distant metastasis of 4T1 breast cancer (such as lung and liver) were effectively inhibited under the X-ray-assisted PTT treatment. Moreover, with the strong absorbance induced by localized surface plasmon resonance in near-infrared (NIR) region, the signals of Raman/photoacoustic (PA) imaging in tumor was also significantly enhanced after the administration of HAuNP@DTTC, indicating it could be used as the Raman/PA imaging and photothermal agent simultaneously under 808 nm laser irradiation. CONCLUSIONS Our studied of the as-prepared HAuNP@DTTC integrated the Raman/PA imaging and PTT functions into the single platform, and showed the good prospects for clinical applications especially with the low-dose X-ray irradiation as an adjuvant, which will be a productive strategy for enhancing drug delivery and accumulation in tumor theranostics.

Abstract
Light-fueled actuators are promising in many fields due to their contactless, easily controllable, and eco-efficiency features. However, their application in liquid environments is complicated by the existing challenges of rapid deformation in liquids, light absorption of the liquid media, and environmental contamination. Here, we design a photothermal pneumatic floating robot (PPFR) using a boat-paddle structure. Light energy is converted into thermal energy of air by an isolated photothermal composite, which is then converted into mechanical energy of liquid to drive the movement of PPFRs. By understanding and controlling the photothermal actuation, the PPFR can achieve an average velocity of 13.1 mm s-1 in water and can be modified for remote on-demand differential steering and self-sustained oscillation. The PPFR may be modified to provide a lifting mechanism, capable of moving 4 times the PPFR mass. Various shapes and materials are suitable for the PPFR, providing a platform for liquid surface transporting, water sampling, pollutant collecting, underwater photography, and photocontrol robots in shallow water.

Abstract
Theranostic agents that integrate diagnostic and therapeutic modalities have drawn extensive attention due to their ability to deliver real-time imaging-guided tumor treatment. Herein, a novel core-shell polydopamine (PDA)-based theranostic agent (PDA@TA-Fe) was fabricated via a two-step strategy. Upon 808 nm and 1064 nm laser irradiation, this agent exhibited high photothermal conversion efficiencies of 29% and 41%, respectively. After endocytosis into tumor cells, the TA-Fe shell of PDA@TA-Fe gradually disintegrated in the weakly acidic tumor microenvironment (TME), and released the TA as an acidity-activated reductant that could reduce Fe3+ to Fe2+. Subsequently, the generated Fe2+ reacted with H2O2 to generate toxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) via the Fenton reaction, which induced the apoptosis of tumor cells and achieved the chemodynamic therapy (CDT). The heat produced by photothermal therapy (PTT) accelerated the ˙OH generation to achieve a synergetic effect of CDT/PTT. In vivo tumor-xenograft imaging and therapeutic assays demonstrated obvious contrast enhancement at the tumor site in the T1/T2-weighted MR imaging and efficient tumor suppression achieved after the intravenous injection of this agent because of the enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect. This study offered a new strategy to design an "all-in-one" nanoplatform for T1/T2 MR imaging-guided synergistic cancer treatment of CDT/PTT.

Abstract
Microbial contamination of water represents a great threat to the public health that has attracted worldwide attention. In this work, polypyrrole magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@PPy NPs) with sterilization properties were fabricated. More specifically, the Fe3O4@PPy NPs obtained via aqueous dispersion polymerization and an in situ chemical oxidative polymerization exhibited a cationic surface and high photothermal conversion efficiency. More than 50% of bacteria adsorption can be achieved at a dosage of 100 μg/mL Fe3O4@PPy NPs under magnetic field, and high photothermal sterilization efficacy (~100%) can be obtained upon NIR exposure at the same dosage for 10 min. Noteworthy, the Fe3O4@PPy NPs can be recycled by magnetism and reused without affecting their photothermal sterilization capability. This study clearly provides experimental evidence of the great potential of Fe3O4@PPy NPs as stable and reusable nanocomposite materials for bacteria adsorption and photothermal sterilization performance. The application of Fe3O4@PPy NPs can realize enviromental-friendly bacterial contaminated water treatment as well as provide stratgies for synergistical antibacterial materials design.

Abstract
Polypyrrole nanoparticles (PPy-NPs) with excellent near-infrared absorption are commonly used as photothermal therapy (PTT) agents; however, PTT using PPy-NPs has a limitation in that it is difficult to maximize their therapeutic effect because of the lack of specific targeting. In this study, to overcome the difficulty of targeting, folic acid functionalized carbon dots (FA-CDs) with bright green fluorescence properties were combined with carboxylated PPy-NPs via the EDC/NHS coupling reaction to yield a PTT imaging agent. The synthesized FA-CD/PPy-NPs with excellent photostability performed folate receptor (FR) positive HeLa cancer cell imaging by green fluorescence signals of FA-CDs and exhibited high cell viability (above 90%) even at 500 μg/mL. The viability of HeLa cells incubated with 200 μg/mL FA-CD/PPy-NPs was dramatically decreased to 25.02 ± 1.85% by NIR laser irradiation, through photothermal therapeutic effects of FA-CD/PPy-NPs with high photothermal conversion efficiency (η = 40.80 ± 1.54%). The cancer cell death by FA-CD/PPy-NPs was confirmed by fluorescence imaging of FA-CDs as well as live/dead cell staining assay (calcein-AM/PI). These results demonstrate that the FA-CD/PPy-NPs can be utilized as multifunctional theranostic agents for specific bioimaging and treatment of FR-positive cancer cells.

Abstract
Organic small molecule-based phototheranostics hold great promise for clinical translation by virtue of their distinct chemical structure, easy reproducibility, and high purity. However, reported molecular agents typically have relatively low optical absorbances, particularly over the near-infrared (NIR) region, and this limits their phototheranostic performance. Herein, we first exploit a diradicaloid molecular structure for enhancing NIR absorption to facilitate efficient photoacoustic imaging (PAI)-guided photothermal therapy (PTT). The donor-acceptor interaction in the diradicaloid molecule (DRM) leads to strong charge transfer resulting on obvious diradical characteristics, which is beneficial for NIR absorption. The DRM possesses excellent light-harvesting ability, with a mass extinction coefficient of ∼220 L g-1 cm-1, which is much higher than those (∼5-100 L g-1 cm-1) of typical organic molecules. After assembling into nanoparticles, they show good water dispersibility, good photostability, and impressive performance for PAI-guided PTT in vitro and in vivo. The impressive in vitro and in vivo performances show that developing small molecules with diradicaloid structures can be an effective approach for enhancing NIR harvesting capability for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (NMOFs) are an interesting and unique class of hybrid porous materials constructed by the self-assembly of metal ions/clusters with organic linkers. The high storage capacities, facile synthesis, easy surface functionalization, diverse compositions and excellent biocompatibilities of NMOFs have made them promising agents for theranostic applications. By combination of a large variety of metal ions and organic ligands, and incorporation of desired molecular functionalities including imaging modalities and therapeutic molecules, diverse MOF structures with versatile functionalities can be obtained and utilized in biomedical imaging and drug delivery. In recent years, NMOFs have attracted great interest as imaging agents in optical imaging (OI), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) and photoacoustic imaging (PAI). Furthermore, the significant porosity of MOFs allows them to be loaded with multiple imaging agents and therapeutics simultaneously and applied for multimodal imaging and therapy as a single entity. In this review, which is intended as an introduction to the use of MOFs in biomedical imaging for a reader entering the subject, we summarize the up-to-date progress of NMOFs as bioimaging agents, giving (i) a broad perspective of the varying imaging techniques that MOFs can enable, (ii) the different routes to manufacturing functionalised MOF nanoparticles and hybrids, and (iii) the integration of imaging with differing therapeutic techniques. The current challenges and perspectives of NMOFs for their further clinical translation are also highlighted and discussed.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the third common and the fourth lethal cancer type worldwide. Immune checkpoint blockade therapy demonstrates great efficacy in a subset of metastatic CRC patients, but precise activation of the antitumor immune response at the tumor site is still challenging. Here a versatile prodrug nanoparticle for second near-infrared (NIR-II) fluorescence imaging-guided combinatory immunotherapy of CRC is reported. The prodrug nanoparticles are constructed with a polymeric oxaliplatin prodrug (PBOXA) and a donor-spacer-acceptor-spacer-donor type small molecular fluorophore TQTCD. The later displays large Stokes shift (>300 nm), fluorescence emission over 1000 nm, and excellent photothermal conversion performance for NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided photothermal therapy (PTT). The prodrug nanoparticles show seven times higher intratumoral OXA accumulation than free oxaliplatin. TQTCD-based PTT and PBOXA-induced chemotherapy trigger immunogenic cell death of the tumor cells and elicit antitumor immune response in a spatiotemporally controllable manner. Further combination of the prodrug nanoparticle-based PTT/chemotherapy with programmed death ligand 1 blockade significantly promotes intratumoral infiltration of the cytotoxic T lymphocytes and eradicates the CRC tumors. The NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided immunotherapy may provide a promising approach for CRC treatment.

Abstract
The desire for all-organic-composed nanoparticles (NPs) of considerable biocompatibility to simultaneously diagnose and treat cancer is undeniably interminable. Heretofore, metal-based agents dominate the landscape of available magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents and photothermal therapeutic agents, but with associated metal-specific downsides. Here, an all-organic metal-free nanoprobe, whose appreciable biocompatibility is synergistically contributed by its tetra-organo-components, is developed as a viable alternative to metal-based probes for MRI-guided tumor-targeted photothermal therapy (PTT). This rationally entails a glycol chitosan (GC)-linked polypyrrole (PP) nanoscaffold that provides abundant primary and secondary amino groups for amidation with the carboxyl groups in a nitroxide radical (TEMPO) and folic acid (FA), to obtain GC-PP@TEMPO-FA NPs. Advantageously, the appreciably benign GC-PP@TEMPO-FA features high nitroxide loading (r1 = 1.58 mM-1 s-1) and in vivo nitroxide-reduction resistance, prolonged nitroxide-systemic circulation times, appreciable water dispersibility, potential photodynamic therapeutic and electron paramagnetic resonance imaging capabilities, considerable biocompatibility, and ultimately achieves a 17 h commensurate MRI contrast enhancement. Moreover, its GC component conveys a plethora of PP to tumor sites, where FA-mediated tumor targeting enables substantial NP accumulation with consequential near-complete tumor regression within 16 days in an MRI-guided PTT. The present work therefore promotes the engineering of organic-based metal-free biocompatible NPs in synergism, in furtherance of tumor-targeted image-guided therapy.

Abstract
Great attention is being increasingly paid to photothermal conversion in the near-infrared (NIR)-II window (1000-1350 nm), where deeper tissue penetration is favored. To date, only a limited number of organic photothermal polymers and relevant theory have been exploited to direct the molecular design of polymers with highly efficient photothermal conversion, specifically in the NIR-II window. This work proposes a fused backbone structure locked via an intramolecular hydrogen bonding interaction and double bond, which favors molecular planarity and rigidity in the ground state and molecular flexibility in the excited state. Following this proposal, a particular class of NIR-II photothermal polymers are prepared. Their remarkable photothermal conversion efficiency is in good agreement with our strategy of coupling polymeric rigidity and flexibility, which accounts for the improved light absorption on going from the ground state to the excited state and nonradiative emission on going from the excited state to the ground state. It is envisioned that such a concept of coupling polymeric rigidity and flexibility will offer great inspiration for developing NIR-II photothermal polymers with the use of other chromophores.

Abstract
Conducting polymers are extensively studied due to their outstanding properties, including tunable electrical property, optical and high mechanical properties, easy synthesis and effortless fabrication and high environmental stability over conventional inorganic materials. Although conducting polymers have a lot of limitations in their pristine form, hybridization with other materials overcomes these limitations. The synergetic effects of conducting polymer composites give them wide applications in electrical, electronics and optoelectronic fields. An in-depth analysis of composites of conducting polymers with carbonaceous materials, metal oxides, transition metals and transition metal dichalcogenides etc. is used to study them effectively. Here in this review we seek to describe the transport models which help to explain the conduction mechanism, relevant synthesis approaches, and physical properties, including electrical, optical and mechanical properties. Recent developments in their applications in the fields of energy storage, photocatalysis, anti-corrosion coatings, biomedical applications and sensing applications are also explained. Structural properties play an important role in the performance of the composites.

Abstract
The chemotherapy combined with photothermal therapy has been a favorable approach for the treatment of breast cancer. In present study, nanoparticles with the characteristics of photothermal/matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) dual-responsive, tumor targeting, and size-variability were designed for enhancing the antitumor efficacy and achieving "on-demand" drug release markedly. Based on the thermal sensitivity of gelatin, we designed a size-variable gelatin nanoparticle (GNP) to encapsulate indocyanine green (ICG) and doxorubicin (DOX). Under an 808 nm laser irradiation, GNP-DOX/ICG responded photothermally and swelled in size from 71.58 ± 4.28 to 160.80 ± 9.51 nm, which was beneficial for particle retention in the tumor sites and release of the loaded therapeutics. Additionally, GNP-DOX/ICG showed a size reduction of the particles to 33.24 ± 4.11 nm and further improved drug release with the degradation of overexpressed MMP-2 in tumor. In the subsequently performed in vitro experiments, it was confirmed that GNP-DOX/ICG could provide a therapeutic effect that was enhanced and synergistic. Consequently, GNP-DOX/ICG could efficiently suppress the growth of 4T1 tumor in vivo. In conclusion, this study may provide a promising strategy in the rational design of drug delivery nanosystems based on gelatin for chemo-photothermal therapy to achieve synergistically enhanced therapeutic efficacy against breast cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to monitor the physiological changes and cytotoxic effects of exogenous contrast agents during photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and photothermal therapy (PTT). In this paper, a low-power telemetric device for mouse vital signs monitoring was designed and demonstrated. APPROACH The power consumption was optimized through hardware and software co-design with a 17% increased operating time compared with typical operation. To demonstrate the feasibility of the monitoring device, PAI and PTT experiments with chitosan-polypyrrole nanocomposites (CS-PPy NCs) as exogenous contrast agents were conducted. Herein, the physiological variation in groups of mice with different CS-PPy NC concentrations was observed and analyzed. MAIN RESULTS The experimental results indicated the influence of CS-PPy NCs and anesthesia on mouse vital signs in PAI and PTT. Additionally, the association between core temperature, heart rate, and saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO2) during PAI and PTT was shown. The strong near-infrared absorbance of exogenous contrast agents could account for the increase in mouse core temperature and tumor temperature in this study. Furthermore, high cross-correlation values between core temperature, heart rate, and SpO2 were demonstrated to explain the fluctuation of mouse vital signs during PAI and PTT. SIGNIFICANCE A design of a vital signs monitoring device, with low power consumption, was introduced in this study. A high cross correlation coefficient of mouse vital signs and the effects of CS-PPy NCs were observed, which explained the mouse physiological variation during the PAI and PTT experiments.

[PMID: 33376327 PMCID: PMC7764553 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s277645] [Citation(s) in RCA: 63] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2020] [Accepted: 12/01/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Gambogic acid (GA), a kind of dry resin secreted by the Garcinia hanburyi tree, is a natural active ingredient with various biological activities, such as anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-bacterial effects, etc. An increasing amount of evidence indicates that GA has obvious anti-cancer effects via various molecular mechanisms, including the induction of apoptosis, autophagy, cell cycle arrest and the inhibition of invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis. In order to improve the efficacy in cancer treatment, nanometer drug delivery systems have been employed to load GA and form micelles, nanoparticles, nanofibers, and so on. In this review, we aim to offer a summary of chemical structure and properties, anti-cancer activities, drug delivery systems and combination therapy of GA, which might provide a reference to promote the development and clinical application of GA.
