Abstract
Extended-release local anesthetics (LAs) have drawn increasing attention with their promising role in improving analgesia and reducing adverse events of LAs. Nano-structured carriers such as liposomes and polymersomes optimally meet the demands of/for extended-release, and have been utilized in drug delivery over decades and showed satisfactory results with extended-release. Based on mature technology of liposomes, EXPAREL, the first approved liposomal LA loaded with bupivacaine, has seen its success in an extended-release form. At the same time, polymersomes has advances over liposomes with complementary profiles, which inspires the emergence of hybrid carriers. This article summarized the recent research successes on nano-structured extended-release LAs, of which liposomal and polymeric are mainstream systems. Furthermore, with continual optimization, drug delivery systems carry properties beyond simple transportation, such as specificity and responsiveness. In the near future, we may achieve targeted delivery and controlled-release properties to satisfy various analgesic requirements.

Abstract
Drug delivery strategies possessing selectivity for cancer cells are eagerly needed in therapy of metastatic breast cancer. In this study, the chemotherapeutic agent, docetaxel (DTX), is conjugated onto heparan sulfate (HS). Aspirin (ASP), which has the activity of anti-metastasis and enhancing T cells infiltration in tumors, is encapsulated into the HS-DTX micelle. Then the cationic polyethyleneimine (PEI)-polyethylene glycol (PEG) copolymer binds to HS via electrostatic force, forming the ASP-loaded HS-DTX micelle (AHD)/PEI-PEG nanocomplex (PAHD). PAHD displays long circulation behavior in blood due to the PEG shell. Under the tumor microenvironment with weakly acidic pH, PEI-PEG separates from AHD, and the free cationic PEI-PEG facilitates the cellular uptake of AHD by increasing permeability of cell membranes. Then the overexpressed heparanase degrades HS, releasing ASP and DTX. PAHD shows specific toxicity toward tumor cells but not normal cells, with advanced activity of inhibiting tumor growth and lung metastasis in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice. The number of CD8+ T cells in tumor tissues is also increased. Therefore, PAHD can become an efficient drug delivery system for breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
Tumor-microenvironment-responsive theranostics have great potential for precision diagnosis and effective treatment of cancer. Polyaniline (PANI) is the first reported pH-responsive organic photothermal agent and is widely used as a theranostic agent. However, tumor pH-responsive PANI-based theranostic agents are not explored, mainly because the conversion from the emeraldine base (EB) to emeraldine salt (ES) state of PANI requires pH < 4, which is lower than tumor acidic microenvironment. Herein, a tumor pH-responsive PANI-based theranostic agent is designed and prepared for amplified photoacoustic imaging guided augmented photothermal therapy (PTT), through intermolecular acid-base reactions between carboxyl groups of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and imine moieties of PANI. The albumin/PANI assemblies (BSA-PANI) can convert from the EB to ES state at pH < 7, accompanied by the absorbance redshift from visible to near-infrared region. Both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that tumor acidic microenvironment can trigger both the photoacoustic imaging (PAI) signal amplification and the PTT efficacy enhancement of BSA-PANI assemblies. This work not only highlights that BSA-PANI assemblies overcome the limitation of low-pH protonation, but also provides a facile assembly strategy for a tumor pH-responsive PANI-based nanoplatform for cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Multiple amino acid (glutamine and lysine)-modified gold nanoparticles a with pH-switchable zwitterionic surface were fabricated through coordination bonds using ferrous iron (Fe2+) as bridge ions, which are able to spontaneously and selectively assemble in tumor cells for accurate tumor therapy combining enzyme-triggered photothermal therapy and H2O2-dependent catalytic medicine. These gold nanoparticles showed electric neutrality at pH 7.4 (hematological system) to prevent endocytosis of normal cells, which could be positively charged at pH 6.8 (tumor microenvironment) to promote the endocytosis of tumor cells to these nanoparticles, performing great tumor selectivity. After cell uptake, the specific enzyme (transglutaminase) in tumor cells would catalyze the polymerization of glutamine and lysine to cause the intracellular assembly of these gold nanoparticles, resulting in an excellent photothermal property for accurate tumor therapy. Moreover, the Fe2+ ion could decompose excess hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in tumor cells via the Fenton reaction, resulting in a large amount of hydroxyl radicals (·OH). These radicals would also cause tumor cell damage. This synergetic therapy associating with high tumor selectivity generated an 8-fold in vitro cytotoxicity against tumor cells compared with normal cells under 48 h incubation with 10 min NIR irradiation. Moreover, in vivo data from tumor-bearing nude mice models showed that tumors can be completely inhibited and gradually eliminated after multimode treatment combining catalytic medicine and photothermal therapy for 3 weeks. This system takes advantage of three tumor microenvironment conditions (low pH, enzyme, and H2O2) to trigger the therapeutic actions, which is a promising platform for cancer therapy that achieved prolonged circulation time in the blood system, selective cellular uptake, and accurate tumor therapy in multiple models.

Abstract
Receptor-targeted delivery systems have been proposed as means of concentrating therapeutic agents to improve therapeutic effects on disease sites and reduce side effects on normal issues. Herein, we synthesized biocompatible folic acid (FA)-functionalized DHE-modified TiP (TiP-PAH-DHE-FA) nanoparticles as a drug delivery system that possessed high drug loading capability and enhanced folate-receptor-mediated cellular uptake. Moreover, it also allowed drug effect evaluation based on the real-time monitoring of the fluorescence intensity of HE molecules that are triggered by intercellular ROS. This acquired drug delivery system provided a novel platform to integrate efficient cell-specific drug delivery with real-time monitoring of therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Chemo-photothermal therapy has become a promising tool for clinical noninvasive tumor therapy, which is able to efficiently avoid drug resistance and other side effects from chemical anticarcinogenic drugs. The ability to selectively fast-heat tumor tissues over surrounding compartments is of fundamental importance and makes effective treatment of tumor margins and complex tumor geometries. Currently existing chemo-photothermal methods mainly show slow light-to-heat conversion with increased temperature up to around 45-57 °C for 5-20 min or a longer time in vitro under regular near-infrared laser irradiation, and during tumor therapy, worse performance in temperature changes are obtained due to the much longer penetration distance in vivo. Herein, nanoarchitectonics with excellent chemo-photothermal performance are first proposed for tumors via in situ decoration of nanogold flowers on graphene oxide surface with further modification of the aptamer molecule. Even with simple synthesis processes, these nanoarchitectonics demonstrate impressive increased temperatures up to 85 °C in just 2 min under 808 nm laser irradiation with regular power density. Due to the fast light-to-heat conversion ability and specific binding effect between the aptamer and tumor cells, the designed nanocarrier shows a rapid and target therapy system with a targeted chemo-photothermal tumor treatment.

Abstract
Programmable drug delivery systems hold great promise to enhance cancer treatment. Herein, a programmable drug delivery system using a chondroitin sulfate (CS)-based composite nanoparticle was developed for enhancing and sensitizing chemotherapy to drug-resistant cancer. The nanoparticle was composed of a cross-linked CS hydrogel shell and hydrophobic cores containing both free drugs and CS-linked prodrugs. Interestingly, the nanoparticle could mediate tumor-specific CD44 targeting. After specific cellular uptake, the payloads were suddenly released because of the decomposition of the CS shell, and the free drug molecules with synergistic effects induced tumor-specific cytotoxicity rapidly. Subsequently, the inner cores of the nanoparticles sustainedly release their cargos in drug-resistant tumor cells to keep the effective drug concentration against the drug efflux mediated by P-glycoprotein. CS dissociated from the outer shell and sensitized cancer cells to the antitumor drugs through downregulation of Bcl-XL, an antiapoptosis protein. Such a programmable drug delivery system with specific tumor-targeting and sensitized therapy is promising for rational drug delivery and provides more versatility for controlled release in biomedical applications.

Abstract
We report the synthesis of amphiphilic polymers featuring lipophilic stearyl chains and hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) polymers that are connected through singlet oxygen-cleavable alkoxyanthracene linkers. These amphiphilic polymers assembled in water to form micelles with diameters of ∼20 nm. Reaction of the alkoxyanthracene linkers with light and O2 cleaved the ether C-O bonds, resulting in formation of the corresponding 9,10-anthraquinone derivatives and concomitant disruption of the micelles. These micelles were loaded with the chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin, which was efficiently released upon photo-oxidation. The drug-loaded reactive micelles were effective at killing cancer cells in vitro upon irradiation at 365 nm, functioning through both doxorubicin release and photodynamic mechanisms.

A dual-targeted hyaluronic acid-gold nanorod platform with triple-stimuli responsiveness for photodynamic/photothermal therapy of breast cancer. Acta Biomater 2019; 83:400-413. [PMID: 30465921 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2018.11.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 107] [Impact Index Per Article: 21.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2018] [Revised: 11/09/2018] [Accepted: 11/18/2018] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Multi-stimuli-responsive theranostic nanoplatform integrating functions of both imaging and multimodal therapeutics holds great promise for improving diagnosis and therapeutic efficacy. In this study, we reported a pH, glutathione (GSH) and hyaluronidase (HAase) triple-responsive nanoplatform for HER2 and CD44 dual-targeted and fluorescence imaging-guided PDT/PTT dual-therapy against HER2-overexpressed breast cancer. The nanoplatform was fabricated by functionalizing gold nanorods (GNRs) with hyaluronic acid (HA) bearing pendant hydrazide and thiol groups via Au-S bonds, and subsequently chemically conjugating 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA), Cy7.5 and anti-HER2 antibody onto HA moiety for PDT, fluorescence imaging and active targeting, respectively. The resulting versatile nanoplatform GNR-HA-ALA/Cy7.5-HER2 had uniform sizes, favorable dispersibility, as well as pH, GSH and HAase triple-responsive drug release manner. In vitro studies demonstrated that HER2 and CD44 receptor-mediated dual-targeting strategy could significantly enhance the cellular uptake of GNR-HA-ALA/Cy7.5-HER2. Under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, MCF-7 cells could efficiently generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and heat, and be more efficiently killed by a combination of PDT and PTT as compared with individual therapy. Pharmacokinetic and biodistribution studies showed that the nanoplatform possessed a circulation half-life of 1.9 h and could be specifically delivered to tumor tissues with an accumulation ratio of 12.8%. Upon the fluorescence imaging-guided PDT/PTT treatments, the tumors were completely eliminated without obvious side effects. The results suggest that the GNR-HA-ALA/Cy7.5-HER2 holds great potential for breast cancer therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A combination of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) is emerging as a promising cancer treatment strategy. However, its therapeutic efficacy is compromised by the nonspecific delivery and unintended release of photo-responsive agents. Herein, we developed a multifunctional theranostic nanoplatform GNR-HA-ALA/Cy7.5-HER2 with pH, glutathione and hyaluronidase triple-responsive drug release for HER2 and CD44 dual-targeted and fluorescence imaging-guided PDT/PTT therapy against breast cancer. We demonstrated that HER2 and CD44 receptors-mediated dual-targeting strategy significantly enhanced the cellular uptake of GNR-HA-ALA/Cy7.5-HER2. We also demonstrated that the combined PDT/PTT treatment had significantly superior antitumor effect than PDT or PTT alone both in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, GNR-HA-ALA/Cy7.5-HER2 could serve as a promising nanoplatform for HER2-positive breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
Sophisticated self-assembly may endow materials with a variety of unique functions that are highly desirable for therapeutic nanoplatform. Herein, we report the coassembly of two structurally defined telodendrimers, each comprised of hydrophilic linear PEG and hydrophobic cholic acid cluster as a basic amphiphilic molecular subunit. One telodendrimer has four added indocyanine green derivatives, leading to excellent photothermal properties; the other telodendrimer has four sulfhydryl groups designed for efficient intersubunit cross-linking, contributing to superior stability during circulation. The coassembled nanoparticle (CPCI-NP) possesses superior photothermal conversion efficiency as well as efficient encapsulation and controlled release of cytotoxic molecules and immunomodulatory agents. CPCI-NP loaded with doxorubicin has proven to be a highly efficacious combination photothermal/chemotherapeutic nanoplatform against orthotopic OSC-3 oral cancer xenograft model. When loaded with imiquimod, a potent small molecule immunostimulant, CPCI-NP is found to be highly effective against 4T1 syngeneic murine breast cancer model, particularly when photothermal/immuno-therapy is given in combination with PD-1 checkpoint blockade antibody. Such triple therapy not only eradicates the light-irradiated primary tumors, but also activates systemic antitumor immunoactivity, causing tumor death at light-unexposed distant tumor sites. This coassembled multifunctional, versatile, and easily scalable photothermal immuno-nanoplatform shows great promise for clinical translation.

Abstract
We have developed endogenous redox-responsive polymer conjugated GO-based hybrid nanomaterials (GO-PEGssFol-CPT) for delivery of anticancer drug camptothecin (CPT) to the cancer cells. The synthesized intermediate (PEGSSFol) and CPT loaded GO- PEGSSFol were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and 1H NMR. The morphological feature changes of TEM and AFM images have confirmed the loading of CPT on the nanocarrier and its release from the nanocarrier. The amount of CPT was loaded was found to be 14.2%. The extent of camptothecin (CPT) release from GO-BiotinPVA-CPT in the presence of different concentrations of glutathione (GSH) was monitored with the increase in the fluorescence intensity at λmax 438 nm and UV-Vis absorbance at 366 nm. The time-dependent camptothecin (CPT) release was monitored in the presence of GSH. It was noticed that CPT was completely released from GO-PEGssFol-CPT within 45 min. This release process is free from interference by other ubiquitous analytes in the living system. The constant fluorescence intensity of GO-PEGssFol-CPT against acidic pH indicated that CPT would not be released in the extracellular region of cancer cells. Therefore, such delivery system could be used to prevent unwanted cytotoxicity to the healthy cells. The GO-PEGssFol-CPT showed higher antiproliferative activity against cervical cancer cells compared to the CPT. Thus, GO-PEGssFol-CPT can be a new material to deliver the anticancer drug to the target tumor region.

Abstract
Hypoxia, and hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), can induce tumor resistance to radiation therapy. To overcome hypoxia-induced radiation resistance, recent studies have described nanosystems to improve tumor oxygenation for immobilizing DNA damage and simultaneously initiate oxygen-dependent HIF-1α degradation. However, HIF-1α degradation is incomplete during tumor oxygenation treatment alone. Therefore, tumor oxygenation combined with residual HIF-1 functional inhibition is crucial to optimizing therapeutic outcomes of radiotherapy. Here, a reactive oxygen species (ROS) responsive nanoplatform is reported to successfully add up tumor oxygenation and HIF-1 functional inhibition. This ROS responsive nanoplatform, based on manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles, delivers the HIF-1 inhibitor acriflavine and other hydrophilic cationic drugs to tumor tissues. After reacting with overexpressed hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) within tumor tissues, Mn2+ and oxygen molecules are released for magnetic resonance imaging and tumor oxygenation, respectively. Cooperating with the HIF-1 functional inhibition, the expression of tumor invasion-related signaling molecules (VEGF, MMP-9) is obviously decreased to reduce the risk of metastasis. Furthermore, the nanoplatform could relieve T-cell exhaustion via downregulation of PD-L1, whose effects are similar to the checkpoint inhibitor PD-L1 antibody, and subsequently activates tumor-specific immune responses against abscopal tumors. These therapeutic benefits including increased X-ray-induced damage, downregulated resistance, and T-cell exhaustion related proteins expression achieved synergistically the optimal inhibition of tumor growth. Overall, this designed ROS responsive nanoplatform is of great potential in the sensitization of radiation for combating primary and metastatic tumors.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) MXenes have recently been shown to be promising for applications in anticancer photothermal therapy (PTT), owing to their outstanding photothermal performance. However, as with the other inorganic 2D nanomaterials, the MXene-based nanoplatforms lack the appropriate biocompatibility and stability in physiological conditions, targeting capability, and controlled release of drug, for cancer therapy. Fabricating a smart MXene-based nanoplatform for the treatment of cancer therefore remains a challenge. In this work, composite hydrogels based on cellulose and Ti3C2 MXene, were synthesized for the first time. We have shown that the cellulose/MXene composite hydrogels possess rapid response near-infrared-stimulated characteristics, which present as a continuous dynamic process in water. As a result, when loaded with the anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX), the cellulose/MXene hydrogels are capable of significantly accelerating the DOX release. This behavior is attributed to the expansion of the pores within the three-dimensional cellulose-based networks, triggered by illumination with an 808 nm light. Capitalizing on their excellent photothermal performance and controlled, sustained release of DOX, the cellulose/MXene hydrogels are utilized as a multifunctional nanoplatform for tumor treatment by intratumoral injection. The results showed that the combination of PTT and prolonged adjuvant chemotherapy delivered using this nanoplatform was highly efficient for instant tumor destruction and for suppressing tumor relapse, demonstrating the potential of the nanoplatform for application in cancer therapy. Our work not only opens the door for the fabrication of smart MXene-based nanocomposites, along with their promising application against cancer, but also paves the way for the development of other inorganic 2D composites for applications in biomedicine.

Abstract
In photodynamic therapy (PDT), the elevated glutathione (GSH) of cancer cells have two sides for treatment efficacy, activation pre-drug by removing activity suppressor part (advantages) and consumption reactive oxygen species (ROS) to confer PDT resistance (disadvantages). Preparation all-in-one system by simple method to make best use of the advantages and bypass the disadvantages still were remains a technical challenge. Herein, we report a robust PDT nanoparticle with above function based on a self-assembled pyridine modified Zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc-DTP). The activity suppressor and active part of ZnPc-DTP were linked by disulfide bond. After targeting cancer cells, GSH can react with ZnPc-DTP nanoparticles by cutting disulfide bond to release its active part (ZnPc-SH) and oxidize GSH. In vitro and in vivo results indicated that ZnPc-SH can effective suppress tumor growth under the low antioxidant tumor microenvironment (TME).

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) have demonstrated a potential for hepatocarcinoma therapy. However, the effective and safe NP-mediated drug transportation is still challenging due to premature leakage and inaccurate release of the drug. Herein, we designed a series of core cross-linking galactose-based glycopolymer-drug conjugates (GPDs) NPs with both redox-responsive and pH-sensitive characteristics to target and program drug release. Glycopolymer is comprised of galactose-containing units, which gather on the surface of GPD NPs and exhibit specific recognition to hepatocarcinoma cells, which over-express the asialoglycoprotein receptor. GPD NPs are stable in a normal physiological environment and can rapidly release the drug in hepatocarcinoma cells, which are reductive and acidic, by combining disulfide bond cross-linked core, as well as boronate ester-linked hydrophilic glycopolymer chain and the hydrophobic drug.

Abstract
A biocomplex of DNA nanotube-peptide, consisting of six concatenated DNA strands, three locked DNA strands, and a cell-penetrating peptide, is reported. The barrel-structured DNA nanotube-peptide was successfully applied as a codrug-delivery system for targeting cancer therapy. The mucin 1 protein (MUC-1) aptamer is part of a DNA nanotube that can specifically recognize MUC-1 protein on the surface of MCF-7 cells. Cyclo (Arg-Gly-Asp-d-Phe-Lys; cRGD), as a cell-penetrating peptide, facilitates recruitment and uptake of targeting drugs by binding to integrin receptors (αv β3 ) of the cytomembrane surface. Anticancer drugs doxorubicin (DOX) and paclitaxel (PTX) were loaded into the capsulated DNA nanotube-peptide (CDNP), which was used as codrug cargo models. The as-prepared biocomplex can be utilized not only to deliver drugs, but also to achieve anticancer effects in vivo. Experimental results suggested that the treatment efficacy of the codrug delivery platform (CDNP/DOX/PTX) was better than that of a single-drug delivery platform (CDNP/DOX or CDNP/PTX). This system, which is composed of DNA strands and peptide, has good biocompatibility and biodegradability. Furthermore, the system can readily detect target mRNA in MCF-7 cells in vitro. The detection limits of mRNA are 9.7×10-8 and 1.8×10-8 m with CDNP/DOX and CDNP/PTX-FITC (FITC=fluorescein isothiocyanate), respectively, as probes.

Abstract
The premature leakage of anticancer drugs during blood circulation may the damage immune system, normal cells, and tissues. Constructing targeted nanocarriers with pH, glutathione, and NIR triple-responsive property can effectively avoid the leakage of anticancer drugs before they arrive at the targeted site. In this paper, magnetic hollow porous carbon nanoparticles (MHPCNs) were successfully fabricated as nanocarrier. Poly(γ-glutamic acid) was used to cap the pores of MHPCNs. The photothermal conversion property of carbon and iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanomaterials was utilized to perform photothermal therapy to overcome multidrug-resistance produced by chemotherapy. The biodistribution of nanoparticles was investigated by magnetic resonance imaging. Experiments in vivo confirm the efficient accumulations of nanoparticles at tumor sites. Meanwhile, tumor growth was effectively inhibited via synergistic photothermal/chemotherapy with minimal side effects.

Abstract
Structural heterogeneity and the lack of in vivo real-time tracking of drug release are the utmost barriers for nanocarrier-mediated prodrugs in targeted therapy. Herein, we describe the strategy of molecularly precise self-assembly of monodisperse nanotheranostics for BP n -DCM-S-CPT (n = 0, 5 and 20) with fixed drug loadings (36%, 23% and 16%) and constant release capacities, permitting in vivo real-time targeted therapy. We focus on regulating the hydrophilic fragment length to construct stable, well-defined nanostructured assemblies. Taking the bis-condensed dicyanomethylene-4H-pyran (DCM) derivative as the activatable near-infrared (NIR) fluorophore, it makes full use of two terminal conjunctions: the hydrophobic disulfide-bridged anticancer prodrug camptothecin (CPT) and the hydrophilic oligomer-bridged biotin segment serving as an active targeting unit. From the rational design, only BP20-DCM-S-CPT forms uniform and highly stable self-assemblies (ca. 80 nm, critical micelle concentration = 1.52 μM) with several advantages, such as structural homogeneity, fixed drug loading efficiency, real-time drug release tracking and synergistic targeting (passive, active and activatable ability). More importantly, in vitro and in vivo experiments verify that the surface-grafted biotins of nanoassemblies are directly exposed to receptors on cancer cells, thus markedly facilitating cellular internalization. Notably, through synergistic targeting, BP20-DCM-S-CPT displays excellent tumor-specific drug release performance in HeLa tumor-bearing nude mice, which has significantly enhanced in vivo antitumor activity and nearly eradicates the tumor (IRT = 99.7%) with few side effects. For the first time, the specific molecularly precise self-assembly of BP20-DCM-S-CPT within a single-molecular framework has successfully achieved a single reproducible entity for real-time reporting of drug release and cancer therapeutic efficacy in living animals, providing a new insight into amphiphilic nanotheranostics for clinical translation.

Abstract
In this work, we report a novel gold nanorod (AuNR)-based nanocomposite that shows strong binding to bacterium and high antibacterial efficiency. The AuNRs were used as a photothermal material to transform near-infrared radiation (NIR) into heat. We selected poly (acrylic acid) to modify the surface of the AuNRs based on a simple self-assembly method. After conjugation of the bacterium-binding molecule vancomycin, the nanocomposites were capable of efficiently gathering on the cell walls of bacteria. The nanocomposites exhibited a high bacterial inhibition capability owing to NIR-induced heat generation in situ. Therefore, the prepared photothermal nanocomposites show great potential for use in antibacterial assays.

Abstract
Ultrasound (US)-triggered sonodynamic therapy (SDT) can solve the critical issue of low tissue-penetrating depth of traditional phototriggered therapies, but the SDT efficacy is still not satisfactorily high in combating cancer at the current stage. Here we report on augmenting the SDT efficacy based on catalytic nanomedicine, which takes the efficient catalytic features of nanoenzymes to modulate the tumor microenvironment (TME). The multifunctional nanosonosensitizers have been successfully constructed by the integration of a MnO x component with biocompatible/biodegradable hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles, followed by conjugation with protoporphyrin (as the sonosensitizer) and cyclic arginine-glycine-aspartic pentapeptide (as the targeting peptide). The MnO x component in the composite nanosonosensitizer acts as an inorganic nanoenzyme for converting the tumor-overexpressed hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) molecules into oxygen and enhancing the tumor oxygen level subsequently, which has been demonstrated to facilitate SDT-induced reactive oxygen species production and enhance SDT efficacy subsequently. The targeted accumulation of these composite nanosonosensitizers efficiently suppressed the growth of U87 tumor xenograft on nude mice after US-triggered SDT treatment. The high in vivo biocompatibility and easy excretion of these multifunctional nanosonosensitizers from the body have also been evaluated and demonstrated to guarantee their future clinical translation, and their TME-responsive T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging capability provides the potential for therapeutic guidance and monitoring during SDT.

Abstract
An intelligent theranostic nanoplatform based on nanovalve operated metal-organic framework (MOF) core-shell hybrids, incorporating tumorous microenvironment-triggered drug release, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guidance, sustained release, and effective chemotherapy in one pot is reported. The core-shell hybrids are constructed by an in situ growth method, in which Fe3 O4 particles with superior abilities of MRI and magnetic separation form the core and UiO-66 MOF with high loading capacity compose the shell, and then are surface-installed with pillararene-based pseudorotaxanes as tightness-adjustable nanovalves. This strategy endows the system with the ability of targeted, multistimuli responsive drug release in response to pH changes, temperature variations, and competitive agents. Water-soluble carboxylatopillar[6]arene system achieved sustained drug release over 7 days due to stronger host-guest binding, suggesting that the nanovalve tightness further reinforces the desirable release of anticancer agent over a prolonged time at the lesion site.
