Abstract
AbstractIn this study, gadolinium (Gd) doped MgAl layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were synthesized via a ‘bottom-up’ method and fully characterized by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and relaxivity measurements. Two cytotoxic agents were then intercalated via ion-exchange. X-ray diffraction patterns exhibit expanded interlayer spacings as a result of successful drug intercalation. Infrared spectra also showed characteristic peaks of the incorporated methotrexate (MTX) or 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). The LDHs were found to be highly stable under physiological conditions, while in acidic conditions a small proportion of Gd was freed into the immersion medium. Dissolution tests revealed that both 5FU and MTX were rapidly released from the LDH carrier. The longitudinal relaxivity of Gd-LDHs remains largely stable during drug release over 24 h, and was higher in acidic environments. Overall, the drug-loaded Gd-LDH systems prepared in this study could serve as pH-sensitive theranostic platforms for MRI-guided anti-cancer therapy.

Abstract
Dynamic drug delivery systems (DDSs) have the ability of transforming their morphology and functionality in response to the biological microenvironments at the disease site and/or external stimuli, show spatio-temporally controllable drug delivery, and enhance the treatment efficacy. Due to the large surface area and modification flexibility, two-dimensional (2D) inorganic nanomaterials are being increasingly exploited for developing intelligent DDSs for biomedical applications. In this review, we summarize the engineering methodologies used to construct transformable 2D DDSs, including changing compositions, creating defects, and surface dot-coating with polymers, biomolecules, or nanodots. Then we present and discuss dynamic inorganic 2D DDSs whose transformation is driven by the diseased characteristics, such as pH gradient, redox, hypoxia, and enzyme in the tumor microenvironment as well as the external stimuli including light, magnetism, and ultrasound. Finally, the limitations and challenges of current transformable inorganic DDSs for clinical translation and their in vivo safety assessment are discussed.

Abstract
Up to 70% of patients with late-stage breast cancer have bone metastasis. Current treatment regimens for breast cancer bone metastasis are palliative with no therapeutic cure. Disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) colonize inside the osteogenic niches in the early stage of bone metastasis. Drug delivery into osteogenic niches to inhibit DTC colonization can prevent bone metastasis from entering its late stage and therefore cure bone metastasis. Here, we constructed a 50% DSS6 peptide conjugated nanoparticle to target the osteogenic niche. The osteogenic niche was always located at the endosteum with immature hydroxyapatite. Arsenic-manganese nanocrystals (around 14 nm) were loaded in osteogenic niche-targeted PEG-PLGA nanoparticles with an acidic environment-triggered arsenic release. Arsenic formulations greatly reduced 4T1 cell adhesion to mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)/preosteoblasts (pre-OBs) and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblastic cells. Arsenic formulations also prevented tumor cell colonization and dormancy via altering the direct interaction between 4T1 cells and MSCs/pre-OBs. The chemotactic migration of 4T1 cells toward osteogenic cells was blocked by arsenic in mimic 3D osteogenic niche. Systemic administration of osteogenic niche-targeted arsenic nanoparticles significantly extended the survival of mice with 4T1 syngeneic bone metastasis. Our findings provide an effective approach for osteogenic niche-specific drug delivery and suggest that bone metastasis can be effectively inhibited by blockage of tumor cell colonization in the bone microenvironment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multi-modal therapy has attracted increasing attention as it provides enhanced effectiveness and potential stimulation of the immune community. However, low accumulation at the tumor sites and quick immune clearance of the anti-tumor agents are still insurmountable challenges. Hypothetically, cancer cell membrane (CCM) can homologously target the tumor whereas multi-modal therapy can complement the disadvantages of singular therapies. Meanwhile, moderate hyperthermia induced by photothermal therapy can boost the cellular uptake of therapeutic agents by cancer cells. RESULTS CCM-cloaked indocyanine green (ICG)-incorporated and abraxane (PTX-BSA)-loaded layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets (LIPC NSs) were fabricated for target efficient photo-chemotherapy of colorectal carcinoma (CRC). The CCM-cloaked LDH delivery system showed efficient homologous targeting and cytotoxicity, which was further enhanced under laser irradiation to synergize CRC apoptosis. On the other hand, CCM-cloaking remarkably reduced the uptake of LDH NSs by HEK 293T cells and macrophages, implying mitigation of the side effects and the immune clearance, respectively. In vivo data further exhibited that LIPC NSs enhanced the drug accumulation in tumor tissues and significantly retarded tumor progression under laser irradiation at very low therapeutic doses (1.2 and 0.6 mg/kg of ICG and PTX-BSA), without observed side effects on other organs. CONCLUSIONS This research has demonstrated that targeting delivery efficiency and immune-escaping ability of LIPC NSs are tremendously enhanced by CCM cloaking for efficient tumor accumulation and in situ generated hyperthermia boosts the uptake of LIPC NSs by cancer cells, a potential effective way to improve the multi-modal cancer therapy.

Abstract
The development of multifunctional nanoformulations (NFs) include several features in a single nanosystem for these devices to overcome the disadvantages of inefficiency and undesirable toxicity of traditional therapies and provide new opportunities in the management of tumors. Herein, multifunctional CaO2@Mn-PDA NFs with a core-shell structure, integrating the photothermal conversion properties of Mn-PDA, the chemodynamic properties of doped Mn ions, and relieving hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment (TME) were developed. The as-fabricated CaO2@Mn-PDA NFs were embedded in microneedles (MNs) for transdermal delivery into tumor sites, leading to the generation of a new minimally invasive and synergistic therapeutic strategy against skin melanoma. Under near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation, the CaO2@Mn-PDA NFs exhibited a synergistic therapeutic effect, including photothermal therapy (PTT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), and modulating hypoxia due to their high photothermal conversion efficiency, boosted intracellular production of reactive oxygen species, excellent chemodynamic reactions, etc. Therefore, the developed MN platform, which can build implanted multifunctional characteristics for on-demand NIR-induced synergistic therapy, have a bright future in tumor suppression.

Abstract
This study aimed to synthesize and characterize L-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) complexed Mn2+ nanoparticle (L-EGCG-Mn), a proof-of-concept pH-sensitive manganese core nanoparticle (NP), and compare its magnetic resonance (MR) properties with those of Gd-DTPA, both in vitro and in vivo. Reverse microemulsion was used to obtain the L-EGCG-Mn NPs. The physicochemical properties of L-EGCG-Mn were characterized using dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, and near-infrared fluorescence small animal live imaging. The in vitro relaxivity of L-EGCG-Mn incubated with different pH buffer solutions (pH = 7.4, 6.8, 5.5) was evaluated. The T1-weighted MR imaging (MRI) properties were evaluated in vitro using hypoxic H22 cells as well as in H22 tumor-bearing mice. Cytotoxicity tests and histological analysis were performed to evaluate the safety of L-EGCG-Mn. L-EGCG-Mn showed good biocompatibility, stability, pH sensitivity, and tumor-targeting ability. Moreover, when the pH was decreased from 7.4 to 5.5, the r 1 relaxivity of L-EGCG-Mn was shown to gradually increase from 1.79 to 6.43 mM-1·s-1. Furthermore, after incubation with L-EGCG-Mn for 4 h, the T1 relaxation time of hypoxic H22 cells was significantly lower than that of normoxic H22 cells (1788 ± 89 vs. 1982 ± 68 ms, p=.041). The in vivo analysis showed that after injection, L-EGCG-Mn exhibited a higher MRI signal compared to Gd-DTPA in H22 tumor-bearing mice (p < .05). Furthermore, L-EGCG-Mn was found to have a good safety profile via cytotoxicity tests and histological analysis. L-EGCG-Mn has a good safety profile and pH sensitivity and may thus serve as a potential MRI contrast agent.

Abstract
Developing simple and efficient nanotheranostic platforms with behavior responsive to the acid microenvironment of a tumor is of great significance for accurate tumor diagnosis and therapy. In this study, a smart 2D nanotheranostic platform has been successfully fabricated by doping functional ferrous ions into as-synthesized MgAl-layered double hydroxide (LDH) with doxurubicin (DOX) loading to form Fe-LDH/DOX NPs, which achieved magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided synergistic chemo/photothermal therapy for breast cancer. The doping of ferrous ions into Fe-LDH/DOX enabled a strong photo-induced heating ability with a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 45.67%, which could be combined with the antitumor drug DOX to achieve the synergistic effect of photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemotherapy for killing tumor cells. Additionally, its in vitro pH-dependent degradation behavior and T2-weighted MRI effect revealed that the as-prepared Fe-LDH/DOX is sensitive to the tumor acid microenvironment. Most importantly, the growth rate of tumors in 4T1 bearing mice could be effectively inhibited after the synergistic treatment of PTT and chemotherapy by Fe-LDH/DOX. These results show that doping functional metal ions into LDH NPs may open a novel approach to fabricating an LDH NP-based nanotheranostics platform with advanced diagnostic and therapeutic performances.

Abstract
Manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles (NPs) are highly attractive for biomedical applications due to their biocompatibility, stimuli-responsive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) properties and capability to modulate the hypoxic tumour microenvironment (TME). However, conventional MnO2 NPs do not possess photothermal therapy (PTT) functions except for hybrids with other photothermal materials. Herein, we first reveal the extraordinary photothermal conversion efficiency (44%) of enzymatically synthesised MnO2 NPs (Bio-MnO2 NPs), which are distinct from chemically synthesised MnO2 NPs. In addition, the Bio-MnO2 NPs revealed high thermal recycling stability and solubility as well as dual pH- and reduction-responsive MRI enhancement for tumour theragnosis. These NPs were prepared through a facile MnxEFG enzyme-mediated biomineralization process. The MnxEFG complex from Bacillus sp. PL-12 is the only manganese mineralization enzyme that could be heterologously overexpressed in its active form to achieve Bio-MnO2 NPs without a bacterial host. The hexagonal layer symmetry of the Bio-MnO2 NPs is the key feature facilitating the high photothermal conversion efficiency and TME-responsive T1-weighted MRI. Evaluations both in vitro at the cellular level and in vivo in a systematic tumour-bearing mouse xenograft model demonstrated the high photothermal ablation efficacy of the Bio-MnO2 NPs, which achieved complete tumour eradication with high therapeutic biosafety without obvious reoccurrence. Moreover, stimuli-responsive MR enhancement potentially allows imaging-guided precision PTT. With their excellent biocompatibility, mild synthesis conditions and relatively simple composition, Bio-MnO2 NPs hold great translational promise.

Abstract
Tannic acid (TA), a large polyphenolic molecule, has long been known for use in food additives, antioxidants, bio-sorbents, animal feed and adhesives due to its intrinsic properties such as antioxidation, metal chelation, and polymerization. Recently, there has been a renewed interest in fabricating engineered advanced materials with TA modification for novel bio-applications. The modification process involves various interactions/reactions based on its diverse chemical structure, contributed by abundant aromatic rings and hydroxyl groups. In addition, the obtained composites are endowed with retained TA activity and novel enhanced properties. Therefore, the aim of this review is to highlight the recent biomedical application of TA-based metal phenolic networks (TA-MPNs) by focusing on their intrinsic properties and the endowed ability for novel engineered functional composites. The potential contributions of TA-MPNs in "Tumor Theranostics", "Anti-Bacterial Ability", "Wound Repair for Skin Regeneration" and "Bone Tissue Regeneration Applications" are summarized in this paper.

Abstract
Elevating intratumoral levels of highly toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) by nanocatalytic medicine for tumor-specific therapy without using conventional toxic chemodrugs is recently of considerable interest, which, however, still suffers from less satisfactory therapeutic efficacy due to the relatively poor accumulation at the tumor site and largely blocked intratumoral infiltration of nanomedicines. Herein, an ultrasound (US)-triggered dual size/charge-switchable nanocatalytic medicine, designated as Cu-LDH/HMME@Lips, is constructed for deep solid tumor therapy via catalytic ROS generations. The negatively charged liposome outer-layer of the nanomedicine enables much-prolonged blood circulation for significantly enhanced tumoral accumulation, while the positively charged Fenton-like catalyst Cu-LDH released from the liposome under the US stimulation demonstrates much enhanced intratumoral penetration via transcytosis. In the meantime, the co-released sonosensitizer hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) catalyze the singlet oxygen (1O2) generation upon the US irradiation, and deep-tumoral infiltrated Cu-LDH catalyzes the H2O2 decomposition to produce highly toxic hydroxyl radical (·OH) specifically within the mildly acidic tumor microenvironment (TME). The efficient intratumoral accumulation and penetration via the dual size/charge switching mechanism, and the ROS generations by both sonosensitization and Fenton-like reactions, ensures the high therapeutic efficacy for the deep tumor therapy by the nanocatalytic medicine.

Abstract
In this study, fine hollow nanocapsules, consisting of NiFe hydroxides (denoted as H-NiFe(OH)x), are designed and synthesized for the delivery of an anticancer drug (Doxorubicin, DOX) and tumour depletion. Owing to its fascinating characteristics of "Fe2+ preservation and regeneration", H-NiFe(OH)x presents considerable Fenton activity for hydroxyl radical (˙OH) induction. Efficient delivery of DOX is ensured due to its hollow microstructure, and a typical pH-responsive drug release is enabled. More importantly, the intracellular DOX, in addition to its intrinsic antitumour properties, induces extra exogenous H2O2 which favors the production of ˙OH by H-NiFe(OH)x in tumour cells. In consequence, remarkable in vitro and in vivo antitumour properties are successfully achieved. This drug delivery system is particularly inspirational to further studies in the exploration of intelligent therapeutic platforms for combinational tumour therapy.

Abstract
With the inspiration to develop new cancer nanotherapeutics by repurposing old drugs, in the current study, a novel two dimensional nanomedicine namely Mn doped, dihydroartemisinin (DHA) loaded layered double hydroxide (MnMgFe-LDH/DHA) with peroxide self-supplying properties for enhanced photothermal-chemodynamic therapy was proposed. Such nanostructures could be synthesized by a simple coprecipitation method, and the as-prepared MnMgFe-LDH/DHA exhibits excellent photothermal properties with a photothermal conversion efficiency up to 10.7%. Besides, the in situ reaction between the released DHA and Fe2+/Mn2+ produced by the degradation of LDH can lead to a burst of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) by Fenton-like reactions. Furthermore, the in vivo experiments demonstrate that MnMgFe-LDH/DHA exhibits a remarkable chemodynamic/photothermal therapy (CDT/PTT) synergistic effect on tumor treatment with negligible damage to normal tissues. Finally, this research provides a smart strategy to construct a DHA repurposing nanomedicine for tumor specific treatment.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles are extensively explored as multifunctional nanocarriers due to their versatility in both the host layer and the interlayer anion. In this study, we report modification of positively charged Cu-containing LDH nanoparticles with a pH-responsive charge-changeable polymer to improve the particle colloidal stability in blood circulation, reduce the nonspecific uptake by normal cells in organs, and subsequently facilitate tumor accumulation and uptake by tumor cells in the acidic tumor microenvironment. In vitro experimental results demonstrate that this promising charge-convertible polymer-LDH nanocarrier well reduces the capture by macrophages in the physiologic medium (pH 7.4) but facilitates the uptake by tumor cells due to detaching of the coated polymer layer in the weakly acidic condition (pH 6.8). Cu-containing LDH nanoparticles also show pH-responsive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast capacity (i.e., r 1 relaxivity). In vivo MRI further confirms effective tumor accumulation of the charge-convertible nanohybrids, with ∼4.8% of the injected dose accumulated at 24 h postintravenous injection, proving the potential as a versatile delivery nanocarrier to enhance the antitumor treatment.

Abstract
DNA nanoflower has been demonstrated as a promising DNA nanostructure for therapeutics and bioimaging primarily because of the programmable DNA sequence and unique structure. Herein, we report manganese ions mediated enzymatic biomineralization to prepare DNA-Mn hybrid nanoflower (DMNF). Paramagnetic Mn2+ was explored as the co-factor of DNA polymerase for the extension of long strand DNA. The biomimetic synthesis of DMNF was performed using the long strand DNA as template via nucleation and growth of Mn2PPi. The morphology and size of DMNF were controllable by tuning reaction time and Mn2+ concentration. The aptamer sequence was encoded into circle template to achieve tumor-targeted DMNF, and cellular uptake assay demonstrated obvious aptamer-mediated internalization. DMNF showed enhanced T1-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging effect in acid environment for high tumor-specific MR imaging, and high spatial resolution imaging of kidneys and liver. Our work provides a facile enzymatically biomineral strategy to integrate multifunctional modules into one DNA structure and promotes the development of DNA nanostructure for precision medicine.

Abstract
Multimodal imaging-guided therapy holds great potential for precise theranostics of cancer metastasis. However, imaging agents enabling the convergence of complementary modalities with therapeutic functions to achieve perfect theranostics have been less exploited. This study reports the construction of a multifunctional nanoagent (FIP-99mTc) that comprises Fe3O4 for magnetic resonance imaging, radioactive 99mTc for single-photon-emission computed tomography, and IR-1061 to serve for the second near-infrared fluorescence imaging, photoacoustic imaging, and photothermal therapy treatment of cancer metastasis. The nanoagent possessed superior multimodal imaging capability with high sensitivity and resolution attributing to the complement of all the imaging modalities. Moreover, the nanoagent showed ideal photothermal conversion ability to effectively kill tumor cells at low concentration and power laser irradiation. In the in vivo study, FIP-99mTc confirmed the fast accumulation and clear delineation of metastatic lymph nodes within 1 h after administration. Attributing to the efficient uptake and photothermal conversion, FIP-99mTc could raise the temperature of metastatic lymph nodes to 54 °C within 10 min laser irradiation, so as to facilitate tumor cell ablation. More importantly, FIP-99mTc not only played an active role in suppressing cancer growth in metastatic lymph nodes with high efficiency but also could effectively prevent further lung metastasis after resection of the primary tumor. This study proposes a simple but effective theranostic approach toward lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxide (LDH) has been a big challenge in exploring new hybrid materials by intercalating inorganic, organic, or bio molecules into their lamellar lattice, those which often showed dual functions from each other or new mutative properties. Recently, nano-bio convergence technology becomes one of the most extensively studied research fields in the view point of developing advanced drugs and diagnostic agents to fight against disease and eventually to improve the lives of human beings. Therefore, LDH as one of the nanomaterials have been intensively investigated not only as biocompatible drug delivery vehicle for cancer chemotherapy but also as diagnostic and imaging agents. In the present review, we have attempted to summarize theranostic functions of drug-LDH hybrid nanoparticles including their synthetic methods, physico-chemical and biological properties, and their unique mechanism overcoming drug resistance, and targeting properties based on in vitro and finally in vivo results. This article is categorized under: Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Nanodevices Diagnostic Tools > in vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging.

Abstract
As an essential trace element in the human body, transitional metal copper (Cu) ions are the bioactive components within the body featuring dedicated biological effects such as promoting angiogenesis and influencing lipid/glucose metabolism. The recent substantial advances of nanotechnology and nanomedicine promote the emerging of distinctive Cu-involved biomaterial nanoplatforms with intriguing theranostic performances in biomedicine, which are originated from the biological effects of Cu species and the physiochemical attributes of Cu-composed nanoparticles. Based on the very-recent significant progresses of Cu-involved nanotheranostics, this work highlights and discusses the principles, progresses, and prospects on the elaborate design and rational construction of Cu-composed functional nanoplatforms for a diverse array of biomedical applications, including photonic nanomedicine, catalytic nanotherapeutics, antibacteria, accelerated tissue regeneration, and bioimaging. The engineering of Cu-based nanocomposites for synergistic nanotherapeutics is also exemplified, followed by revealing their intrinsic biological effects and biosafety for revolutionizing their clinical translation. Finally, the underlying critical concerns, unresolved hurdles, and future prospects on their clinical uses are analyzed and an outlook is provided. By entering the "Copper Age," these Cu-involved nanotherapeutic modalities are expected to find more broad biomedical applications in preclinical and clinical phases, despite the current research and developments still being in infancy.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) has been one of the most common diseases, and thus the development of novel biomaterials with superior osteogenic ability is the key issue. In this work, Yb-containing MgAl-layered double hydroxide (LDH) monolayer nanosheets (MgAlYb-LDHs) were designed and synthesized and were used as a new biomaterial with outstanding osteogenic differentiation ability. The LDH monolayer nanosheets gave a high loading content (LC) of 197% for alendronate (AL) with an encapsulation efficiency (EE) of 98.6%. Notably, outstanding in vitro osteogenic differentiation performance of MgAlYb-LDHs was demonstrated in the transcriptional level of Collagen I, with a 3000-fold enhancement compared with the blank control. For in vivo tests with rabbits, the total volume of bone regeneration after treatment with the LDH group was 2.77 and 1.41 times larger than that with the negative control group and positive control group (autologous bone graft, clinical gold standard) at 8 weeks postoperatively. In addition, with the degradation of AL/LDHs, the bone mass density (BMD) of the femoral head increased by 1.52 times compared with that for the positive control group at 8 weeks postoperatively. Therefore, this work provides a new perspective for the design and preparation of 2D monolayer MgAlYb-LDHs and their drug formulation (AL/LDHs), which show great promise in ONFH accompanied by osteoporosis.

Abstract
Extremely small iron oxide nanoparticles (ESIONPs), as a kind of the special T1 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent that can provide T1 contrasting enhancement since their magnetically disordered shells are dominant compared to their magnetic cores and have powerful potential for constructing stimuli-responsive contrast agents (CAs) to realize precise the tumor diagnosis with high specificity and sensitivity. The stimuli-responsive function of ESIONPs-based CAs can be directly endowed through the synergistic regulation of the longitudinal and transverse relaxivity (r1 and r2) of ESIONPs. However, the systematical investigation for the synergistic regulation of r1 and r2 of ESIONPs is quite lacking. Herein, based on the relaxivity theories, three kinds of ESIONPs-based nanoassemblies with pH-responsiveness were designed and constructed to explore the possibility of various synergistic regulations on r1 and r2. When three kinds of ESIONPs-based nanoassemblies were converted to dissociated ones under a weak acid environment, ESIONPs micelle could realize a synergistic regulation of the single r2 decrease along with the stable r1, while gold nanoparticles-ESIONPs (AuNPs-ESIONPs) vesicle could provide a synergistic regulation comprising the single r1 increase along with the stable r2, and ESIONPs vesicle could offer a synergistic regulation involving the r2 decrease together with the r1 increase. Moreover, all the synergistic regulations on r1 and r2 were efficient strategies to fabricate ESIONPs-based CAs with the stimuli-responsive function. These systematic and feasible synergistic regulations of r1 and r2 may guide and promote the development of ESIONPs-based stimuli-responsive CAs for the highly sensitive and specific tumor diagnosis.

Abstract
Molecular imaging has gained utmost importance in the recent past in early diagnosis of diseases. In comparison to other imaging modalities, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has proven to extend its abilities not only for its usage of non-ionizing radiation but also for the high spatial resolution in soft tissues. A major limitation faced by MRI is the sensitivity in detecting diseased conditions until a certain stage. At present, this limitation is overcome with the use of contrast agents that show potential in altering the T1 and T2 relaxation times of the hydrogen protons. This modulation to the relaxation times leads to better contrast differences based on the type of contrast agent and the pulse sequence being engaged for acquiring images. Water molecules, as the major contributor of hydrogen protons, are proven to interact with such contrast agents. Major drawbacks noted with the marketed MRI contrast agents are their toxicity and renal clearance. To conquer these issues, magnetic nanomaterials are being researched for their abilities to match the contrast enhancement offered by traditional agents reducing their drawbacks. Furthermore, comparative diagnosis with both T1 and T2 contrast at the same time has also interested investigators. To achieve this, twin mode T1 and T2 weighted contrast agents are developed utilizing the remarkable properties extended by magnetic nanoplatforms. As a step forward, multimodal imaging agents are also being engineered based on these magnetic nanoplatforms that will generate cross-verified diagnoses using multiple imaging modalities with a unique imaging agent. This review starts by introducing the basics of MRI with major focus on the typical interactions of water molecules with a variety of magnetic nanomaterials. The review also concentrates on the clinical needs and nanomaterials available for twin T1 and T2 contrast with a minor introduction to multimodal imaging agents. In conclusion, the advent of MRI with the advantages offered by magnetic nanomaterials is summarized, leading to insights for future developments.

Abstract
Nanotheranostics have been actively sought in precision nanomedicine in recent years. However, insufficient tumor accumulation and limited cell uptake often impede the nanotheranostic efficacy. Herein, pH-sensitive charge-reversible polymer-coated layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanohybrids are devised to possess long circulation in blood but reserve surface charges in the weakly acidic tumor tissue to re-expose therapeutic LDH nanoparticles for enhanced tumor accumulation and cell uptake. In vitro experimental data demonstrate that charge-reversible nanohybrids mitigate the cell uptake in physiological conditions (pH 7.4), but remarkably facilitate internalization by tumor cells after charge reversion in the weakly acidic environment (pH 6.8). More significantly, about 6.0% of injected charge-reversible nanohybrids accumulate in the tumor tissue at 24 h post injection, far higher than the average accumulation (0.7%) reported elsewhere for nanoparticles. This high tumor accumulation clearly shows the tumor tissues in T1 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging. As a consequence, >95% inhibition of tumor growth in the B16F0-bearing mouse model is achieved via only one treatment combining RNAi and photothermal therapy under very mild irradiation (808 nm laser, 0.3 W cm-2 for 180 s). The current research thus demonstrates a new strategy to functionalize nanoparticles and simultaneously enhance their tumor accumulation and cell internalization for effective cancer theranostics.

Abstract
A large number of graphene and other 2D materials are currently used for the development of new technologies, increasingly entering different industrial sectors. Interrogating the impact of such 2D materials on health and environment is crucial for both modulating their potential toxicity in living organisms and eliminating them from the environment. In this context, understanding if 2D materials are bio-persistent is mandatory. In this review we describe the importance of biodegradability and decomposition of 2D materials. We initially cover the biodegradation of graphene family materials, followed by other emerging classes of 2D materials including transition metal dichalcogenides and oxides, Xenes, Mxenes and other non-metallic 2D materials. We explain the role of defects and functional groups, introduced onto the surface of the materials during their preparation, and the consequences of chemical functionalization on biodegradability. In strong relation to the chemistry on 2D materials, we describe the concept of "degradation-by-design" that we contributed to develop, and which concerns the covalent modification with appropriate molecules to enhance the biodegradability of 2D materials. Finally, we cover the importance of designing new biodegradable 2D conjugates and devices for biomedical applications as drug delivery carriers, in bioelectronics, and tissue engineering. We would like to highlight that the biodegradation of 2D materials mainly depends on the type of material, the chemical functionalization, the aqueous dispersibility and the redox potentials of the different oxidative environments. Biodegradation is one of the necessary conditions for the safe application of 2D materials. Therefore, we hope that this review will help to better understand their biodegradation processes, and will stimulate the chemists to explore new chemical strategies to design safer products, composites and devices containing 2D materials.

Abstract
Inorganic nanoparticles (NPs)-mediated tumor theranostics have attracted widespread attention due to their unique physicochemical properties, such as optical, electrical, magnetic, and thermal properties. In the past decade, great advancements have been made in inorganic NPs-associated drug delivery, multimodal tumor imaging, and tumor therapy. However, the potential toxicity of inorganic NPs due to their low biodegradability, background signals interference and treatment side effects limit their clinical application. Therefore, developing biodegradable and intelligent NPs is beneficial to avoid excessive metal ions deposition, specific tumor imaging and treatment. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in tumor microenvironment (TME)-triggered biodegradation of inorganic NPs accompanied by imaging signal amplification and the released ions-mediated tumor therapy. First, the feature characteristics of the TME are introduced, including mild acidity, hypoxia, overexpressed reactive oxygen species (ROS), glutathione (GSH), and enzymes et al.; then, the biodegradation of NPs in a TME-induced activation of imaging signals, such as magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and fluorescence imaging is described; furthermore, tumor therapies through "Fenton", "Fenton-like" reactions, and interference of biological effects in cells is presented. Finally, the challenges and outlook for improving the degradation efficiency, imaging, specificity and efficiency of tumor imaging and treatment are discussed.

Abstract
Recently, Mn(II)-based T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents (CAs) have been explored widely for cancer diagnosis. However, the "always-on" properties and poor excretability of the conventional Mn(II)-based CAs leads to high background signals and unsatisfactory clearance from the body. Here, we report an "in situ three-dimensional to two-dimensional (3D-to-2D) transformation" method to prepare novel excretable 2D manganese-based layered silicates (Mn-LSNs) with extremely high signal-to-noise for tumor-specific MR imaging for the first time. Our observations combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that 3D metal (Mn, Fe, Co) oxide nanoparticles are initially formed from the molecular precursor solution and then in situ transform into 2D metal (Mn, Fe, Co)-based layered silicates triggered by the addition of tetraethyl orthosilicate, which provides a time-saving and versatile way to prepare novel 2D silicate nanomaterials. The unique ion-exchangeable capacity and high host layer charge density endow Mn-LSNs with an "ON/OFF" pH/GSH stimuli-activatable T1 relaxivity with superb high signal-to-noise (640-, 1200-fold for slightly acidic and reductive changes, respectively). Further in vivo MR imaging reveals that Mn-LSNs exhibit a continuously rapid T1-MRI signal enhancement in tumor tissue and no visible signal enhancement in normal tissue, indicating an excellent tumor-specific imaging. In addition, Mn-LSNs exhibit a rapid excretion from the mouse body in 24 h and invisible organ toxicity, which could help to solve the critical intractable degradation issue of conventional inorganic CAs. Moreover, the tumor microenvironment (pH/GSH/H2O2) specific degradability of Mn-LSNs could help to improve the penetration depth of particles into the tumor parenchyma. Developing this novel Mn-LSNs contrast agent, together with the already demonstrated capacity of layered silicates for drug and gene delivery, provides opportunities for future cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Excessive phosphorus in water is the primary culprit for eutrophication, which causes approximately $2.2 billion annual economic loss in the United States. This study demonstrates a phosphate-selective sustainable method by adopting Garcinia subelliptica leaves as a natural bio-template, where MgMn-layered double hydroxide (MgMn-LDH) and graphene oxide (GO) can be grown in situ to obtain L-GO/MgMn-LDH. After calcination, the composite shows a hierarchical porous structure and selective recognition of phosphate, which achieves significantly high and recyclable selective phosphate adsorption capacity and desorption rate of 244.08 mg-P g-1 and 85.8%, respectively. The detail variation of LDHs during calcination has been observed via in situ transmission electron microscope (TEM). Moreover, the roles in facilitating phosphate adsorption and antimicrobial ability of chemical constituents in Garcinia subelliptica leaves, biflavonoids, and triterpenoids have been investigated. These results indicate the proposed bio-templated adsorbent is practical and eco-friendly for phosphorus sustainability in commercial wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Molecular diagnosis has played an increasingly important role in cancer detection. However, it remains challenging to develop an in situ analytical method capable of profiling the molecular phenotype of tumors for precision cancer diagnosis. A "Trojan horse" strategy based on stimulus-responsive surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SR-SERS) is reported here for selectively recording the comprehensive molecular information of tumors in situ, without resorting to destructive sample preparation and complex data analysis. This technique is employed to delineate the margin between tumors and normal tissues with high accuracy, and to further discriminate the molecular fingerprints of tumors in the early and late stages. Based on molecular profiling, we discovered that the signal ratios of fatty acid-to-phenylalanine could serve as promising indicators for identifying the primary tumors in different stages. This simple SR-SERS technique also provides a potential useful means for identifying tumor classifications or distinguishing primary and metastatic tumors.

Abstract
The antioxidant effect weakens the ability of PDT to resist melanoma, and the hypoxic tumor environment further restricts the application of photosensitizers in tumors. Therefore, to enhance the ability of PDT to resist melanoma, we designed a sequential enhanced PDT theranostic platform (Au@MTM-HA). Firstly, the nanotherapeutic platform uses TiO2 as a photosensitizer, which is doped with MnO2 to form a mesoporous MTM. The MTM can continuously provide oxygen, thereby increasing the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reducing the metastatic effect by alleviating tumor hypoxia. Furthermore, the released Au25Sv9 could inhibit the activity of antioxidant defense enzymes and reduce the scavenging of ROS and further enhance the PDT effect. Simultaneously, surface-modified HA could not only recognize CD44 receptor but also act as a sealing agent for carriers. Result: Au@MTM-HA could explosively produce a 3-fold higher ROS and improve the PDT effect. Therefore, this work may provide strong evidence for Au@MTM-HA as a new and promising PDT candidate for the treatment of metastatic melanoma.

Abstract
The exploration of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) agents possessing excellent performances and high biosafety is of great importance for both fundamental science research and biomedical applications. In this study, we present that monodisperse Fe2O3 supraparticles (SPs) can act as T1-weighted MRI agents, which not only possess a distinct off-on MRI switch in the tumor microenvironment but also are readily excreted from living bodies due to its quasi-amorphous structure and hierarchical topology design. First, the Fe2O3 SPs have a surface-to-volume ratio obviously smaller than that of their building blocks by means of self-assembly processes, which, on the one hand, causes a rather low r1 relaxivity (0.19 mM-1 s-1) and, on the other hand, can effectively prevent their aggregation after intravenous injection. Second, the Fe2O3 SPs have a dramatic disassembly/degradation-induced active T1-weighted signal readout (more than 6 times the r1 value enhancement and about 20 times the r2/r1 ratio decrease) in the tumor microenvironment, resulting in a high signal-to-noise ratio for imaging performances. Therefore, they possess excellent in vivo imaging capacity, even with a tumor size as small as 5 mm3. Third, the disassembled/decomposed behaviors of the Fe2O3 SPs facilitate their timely clearance/excretion from living bodies. In particular, they exhibit distinct renal clearance behavior without any kidney damage with the right dosage. Fourth, the favorable biodegradability of the as-prepared Fe2O3 SPs can further relieve the concerns about the unclear biological effects, particularly on nanomaterials, in general.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles have been extensively utilised as negative (T2) contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging. In the past few years, researchers have also exploited their application as positive (T1) contrast agents to overcome the limitation of traditional Gd3+ contrast agents. To provide T1 contrast, these particles must present certain physicochemical properties with control over the size, morphology and surface of the particles. In this review, we summarise the reported T1 iron oxide nanoparticles and critically revise their properties, synthetic protocols and application, not only in MRI but also in multimodal imaging. In addition, we briefly summarise the most important nanoparticulate Gd and Mn agents to evaluate whether T1 iron oxide nanoparticles can reach Gd/Mn contrast capabilities.

Abstract
2D nanomaterials with unique nanosheet structures, large surface areas, and extraordinary physicochemical properties have attracted tremendous interest. In the area of nanomedicine, research on graphene and its derivatives for diverse biomedical applications began as early as 2008. Since then, many other types of 2D nanomaterials, including transition metal dichalcogenides, transition metal carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides, black phosphorus nanosheets, layered double hydroxides, and metal-organic framework nanosheets, have been explored in the area of nanomedicine over the past decade. In particular, a large surface area makes 2D nanomaterials highly efficient drug delivery nanoplatforms. The unique optical and/or X-ray attenuation properties of 2D nanomaterials can be harnessed for phototherapy or radiotherapy of cancer. Furthermore, by integrating 2D nanomaterials with other functional nanoparticles or utilizing their inherent physical properties, 2D nanomaterials may also be engineered as nanoprobes for multimodal imaging of tumors. 2D nanomaterials have shown substantial potential for cancer theranostics. Herein, the latest progress in the development of 2D nanomaterials for cancer theranostic applications is summarized. Current challenges and future perspectives of 2D nanomaterials applied in nanomedicine are also discussed.

Abstract
Clinical manifestations of tumors indicate that malignant phenotypes developing in the hypoxic microenvironment lead to resistance to cancer treatment, rendering chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and photodynamic therapy less sensitive and effective in patients with tumor. Visualizing the oxygen level in the tumor environment has garnered much attention due to its implications in precision tumor therapy. Following the rapid development of biomaterials in nanotechnology, various nanomaterials have been designed to visualize the oxygen levels in tumors. Here, we review recent research on detecting oxygen levels in solid tumors for tumor hypoxia imaging. To monitor the hypoxic level of tumors, two main strategies were investigated: directly detecting oxygen levels in tumors and monitoring the hypoxia-assisted reduced microenvironment. We believe that hypoxia as a tumor-specific microenvironment can be a breakthrough in the clinical treatment of tumors.

Abstract
Mn(iv)-Based nanoparticles (NPs) are effective in improving tumor oxygenation (hypoxia) and reducing endogenous hydrogen peroxide and acidity in the tumor region. However, the optimized reduction conditions of conventional Mn(iv)-based NPs are generally reported at pH ≤ 6.5, while the usual pH range of the tumor microenvironment (TME) is 6.5-7.0. The dissatisfactory imaging performance in the weakly acidic environment may limit their further application in tumor diagnosis. In this study, Mn(iii) was introduced in a nanoplatform, because it is reduced into Mn(ii) in weakly acidic environments. Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptide-decorated bovine serum albumin (BSA) was employed as the stabilizer and scaffold to fabricate Mn(iii)- and Mn(iv)-integrated nanocomposites (RGD-BMnNPs) with suitable size, good stability, and excellent biocompatibility. The as-prepared NPs showed clear contrast enhancement at pH 6.5-6.9 in vitro as well as sensitive and rapid T1-weighted imaging performance within the tumor region in a glioblastoma (U87MG) orthotopic model, owing to the intrinsic disproportionation reaction of Mn(iii) in the weakly acidic environment. In addition, these NPs could be used for efficient siRNA delivery. They showed superior advantages in this process, including increased tumour uptake, improved tumor accumulation and enhanced therapeutic effects with the modulation of the TME. These novel albumin-stabilized manganese-based NPs combined with efficient drug delivery capacity hold great potential to serve as intelligent theranostic agents for further clinical translation.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death all over the world. The development of nanoplatform provides a promising strategy for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. As the foundation of the nanoplatform, the composition of nanocarrier decides the basic properties. Protein exists in all kinds of life and participates in any life activities, having great potentials to serve as a nanocarrier because of its excellent biocompatibility, abundance of functional groups, and inherent biological activity. As a result, protein-based nanoplatforms have evoked extensive interests for tumor imaging and therapy. This review presents the latest progresses on the advancement of protein-based nanoplatforms, introducing the most common protein nanocarriers (such as human/bovine serum albumin, ferritin, human transferrin) thoroughly including their physiochemical properties and specific applications. Also, other kinds of protein are briefly involved. Finally, the prospects and challenges of the development of protein-based nanoplatforms are summarized. This article is categorized under: Biology-Inspired Nanomaterials > Protein and Virus-Based Structures Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME), which is characterised by high H2O2 and glutathione (GSH) levels, low pH value and hypoxia, imposes crucial influences on tumor therapeutic outcomes. Rational design and preparation of nanomaterial systems that are responsive to the intrinsic properties of the TME open a promising avenue towards tumor-specific treatment. Herein, CoMn-layered double hydroxide (CoMn-LDH) nanosheets were synthesized via a bottom-up method followed by surface modification with a photosensitizer, chlorin e6 (Ce6), which exhibited TME-responsive imaging as well as photodynamic and chemodynamic synergistic therapy (PDT/CDT). Due to their ultralow bond energy and large adsorption energy, CoMn-LDH nanosheets show fast self-degradability in a GSH (10 mM) microenvironment, giving an excellent CDT activity in mildly acidic conditions (pH = 6.5), superior GSH removal ability (99.82%) and O2 production (35.37 μg L-1 s-1). Moreover, Ce6/CoMn-LDH nanosheets display satisfactory photoacoustic (PA) imaging and GSH-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a 45.1-fold T1-enhancement. In addition, both in vitro and in vivo therapeutic tests based on Ce6/CoMn-LDH demonstrate a satisfactory anticancer activity with complete cancer cell apoptosis and dramatic tumor elimination. This work provides a new perspective for the design of multifunctional 2D nanosheets towards a fully promoted TME-responsive synergistic therapy, which holds great promise for future clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Manganese-based nanomaterials have piqued great interest in cancer nanotheranostics, owing to their excellent physicochemical properties. Here we report a facile wet-chemical synthesis of size-controllable, biodegradable, and metastable γ-phase manganese sulfide nanotheranostics, which is employed for tumor pH-responsive traceable gas therapy primed chemodynamic therapy (CDT), using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a biological template (The final product was denoted as MnS@BSA). The as-prepared MnS@BSA can be degraded in response to the mildly acidic tumor microenvironment, releasing hydrogen sulfide (H2S) for gas therapy and manganese ions for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CDT. In vitro experiments validated the pH-responsiveness of MnS@BSA at pH 6.8 and both H2S gas and •OH radicals were detected during its degradation. In vivo experiments showed efficiently tumor turn-on T1-weighted MRI, significantly suppressed tumor growth and greatly prolonged survival of tumor-bearing mice following intravenous administration of MnS@BSA. Our findings indicated that MnS@BSA nanotheranostics hold great potential for traceable H2S gas therapy primed CDT of cancer.
