J Nanobiotechnology 2023; 21:434. [PMID: 37980476 PMCID: PMC10657629 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-023-02172-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Manganese-based nanomaterials (Mn-nanomaterials) hold immense potential in cancer diagnosis and therapies. However, most Mn-nanomaterials are limited by the low sensitivity and low efficiency toward mild weak acidity (pH 6.4-6.8) of the tumor microenvironment, resulting in unsatisfactory therapeutic effect and poor magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performance. This study introduces pH-ultrasensitive PtMn nanoparticles as a novel platform for enhanced ferroptosis-based cancer theranostics. The PtMn nanoparticles were synthesized with different diameters from 5.3 to 2.7 nm with size-dominant catalytic activity and magnetic relaxation, and modified with an acidity-responsive polymer to create pH-sensitive agents. Importantly, R-PtMn-1 (3 nm core) presents "turn-on" oxidase-like activity, affording a significant enhancement ratio (pH 6.0/pH 7.4) in catalytic activity (6.7 folds), compared with R-PtMn-2 (4.2 nm core, 3.7 folds) or R-PtMn-3 (5.3 nm core, 2.1 folds), respectively. Moreover, R-PtMn-1 exhibits dual-mode contrast in high-field MRI. R-PtMn-1 possesses a good enhancement ratio (pH 6.4/pH 7.4) that is 3 or 3.2 folds for T1- or T2-MRI, respectively, which is higher than that of R-PtMn-2 (1.4 or 1.5 folds) or R-PtMn-3 (1.1 or 1.2 folds). Moreover, their pH-ultrasensitivity enabled activation specifically within the tumor microenvironment, avoiding off-target toxicity in normal tissues during delivery. In vitro studies demonstrated elevated intracellular reactive oxygen species production, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial membrane potential changes, malondialdehyde content, and glutathione depletion, leading to enhanced ferroptosis in cancer cells. Meanwhile, normal cells remained unaffected by the nanoparticles. Overall, the pH-ultrasensitive PtMn nanoparticles offer a promising strategy for accurate cancer diagnosis and ferroptosis-based therapy.

Abstract
Radiotherapy is an important therapeutic modality in the treatment of cancers. Nevertheless, the characteristics of the tumor microenvironment (TME), such as hypoxia and high glutathione (GSH), limit the efficacy of radiotherapy. Manganese-based (Mn-based) nanomaterials offer a promising prospect for sensitizing radiotherapy due to their good responsiveness to the TME. In this review, we focus on the mechanisms of radiosensitization of Mn-based nanosystems, including alleviating tumor hypoxia, increasing reactive oxygen species production, increasing GSH conversion, and promoting antitumor immunity. We further illustrate the applications of these mechanisms in cancer radiotherapy, including the development and delivery of radiosensitizers, as well as their combination with other therapeutic modalities. Finally, we summarize the application of Mn-based nanosystems as contrast agents in realizing precision therapy. Hopefully, the present review will provide new insights into the biological mechanisms of Mn-based nanosystems, as well as their applications in radiotherapy, in order to address the difficulties and challenges that remain in their clinical application in the future.

Abstract
Background The integration of diagnostic and therapeutic functions into a biosafe nanoplatform with intelligent response functions at the tumor microenvironment (TME) is a promising strategy for cancer therapy. Methods Mn-doped nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAPMn) nanoparticles were successfully prepared via a simple coprecipitation method for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided photothermal therapy. This study is the first to report on the use of Mn to render biodegradable hydroxyapatite suitable for MRI and effective photothermal therapy (PTT) simultaneously by regulating the pH of nHAPMn during the preparation process. Results Combined with near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation, a photothermal conversion efficiency of 26% and effective photothermal lethality in vitro were achieved. Moreover, the degradation of nHAPMn led to the release of Mn ions and amplified the MRI signals in an acidic TME, which confirmed that nHAPMn had a good pH-responsive MRI capacity in solid tumors. In animal experiments, tumors in the nHAPMn5+NIR group completely abated after 14 days of treatment, with no significant recurrence during the experiment. Conclusion Therefore, nHAPMn is promising as a nanotheranostic agent and can be effective in clinical diagnosis and therapy for treating cancer.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy is known for its non-invasiveness to significantly reduce undesired side effects on patients. However, the infiltration and invasiveness of tumor growth are still beyond the specificity of traditional light-controlled photodynamic therapy (PDT), which lacks cellular-level accuracy to tumor cells, possibly leading to "off-target" damage to healthy tissues such as the skin or immune cells infiltrated. Here, upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) were co-encapsulated with manganese dioxide (MnO2) by amphiphilic polymers poly(styrene-co-methyl acrylate) (PSMA) and further coated with photosensitizer (riboflavin)-loaded mesoporous silica (C@S/V). The C@S/V nanoprobes exhibited shielded upconversion luminescence in normal conditions (pH 7.4, no hydroperoxide (H2O2)) under 980-nm irradiation and thus minimal reactive oxygen production from riboflavin. However, the excess H2O2 (1 mM) and acidic environment (pH 5.5) could decompose the MnO2 within the C@S/V, resulting in remarkable enhancement of upconversion luminescence and a favorable hypoxia-relieving condition for PDT, providing a spatiotemporal signal for therapy initiation. The C@S/V nanoprobes were applied to the co-culture of normal cells (HEK293) and pancreatic cancer cells (Panc02) and performed a selective killing on Panc02 under the 980-nm irradiation. By using the "double-safety" strategy, a responsive C@S/V nanoprobe was designed by the selective activation of acidic and H2O2-rich conditions and 980-nm irradiation for spatiotemporally selective photodynamic therapy with cellular-level accuracy.

Abstract
Degeneration of fibrocartilaginous tissues is often associated with complex pro-inflammatory factors. These include reactive oxygen species (ROS), cell-free nucleic acids (cf-NAs), and epigenetic changes in immune cells. To effectively control this complex inflammatory signaling, it developed an all-in-one nanoscaffold-based 3D porous hybrid protein (3D-PHP) self-therapeutic strategy for treating intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. The 3D-PHP nanoscaffold is synthesized by introducing a novel nanomaterial-templated protein assembly (NTPA) strategy. 3D-PHP nanoscaffolds that avoid covalent modification of proteins demonstrate inflammatory stimuli-responsive drug release, disc-mimetic stiffness, and excellent biodegradability. Enzyme-like 2D nanosheets incorporated into nanoscaffolds further enabled robust scavenging of ROS and cf-NAs, reducing inflammation and enhancing the survival of disc cells under inflammatory stress in vitro. Implantation of 3D-PHP nanoscaffolds loaded with bromodomain extraterminal inhibitor (BETi) into a rat nucleotomy disc injury model effectively suppressed inflammation in vivo, thus promoting restoration of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The resulting regeneration of disc tissue facilitated long-term pain reduction. Therefore, self-therapeutic and epigenetic modulator-encapsulated hybrid protein nanoscaffold shows great promise as a novel approach to restore dysregulated inflammatory signaling and treat degenerative fibrocartilaginous diseases, including disc injuries, providing hope and relief to patients worldwide.

Abstract
The rapid development of nanomedicine and nanobiotechnology has allowed the emergence of various therapeutic modalities with excellent therapeutic efficiency and biosafety, among which, the sonodynamic therapy (SDT), a combination of low-intensity ultrasound and sonosensitizers, is emerging as a promising noninvasive treatment modality for cancer treatment due to its deeper penetration, good patient compliance, and minimal damage to normal tissue. The sonosensitizers are indispensable components in the SDT process because their structure and physicochemical properties are decisive for therapeutic efficacy. Compared to the conventional and mostly studied organic sonosensitizers, inorganic sonosensitizers (noble metal-based, transition metal-based, carbon-based, and silicon-based sonosensitizers) display excellent stability, controllable morphology, and multifunctionality, which greatly expand their application in SDT. In this review, the possible mechanisms of SDT including the cavitation effect and reactive oxygen species generation are briefly discussed. Then, the recent advances in inorganic sonosensitizers are systematically summarized and their formulations and antitumor effects, particularly highlighting the strategies for optimizing the therapeutic efficiency, are outlined. The challenges and future perspectives for developing state-of-the-art sonosensitizers are also discussed. It is expected that this review will shed some light on future screening of decent inorganic sonosensitizers for SDT.

Abstract
The non-specific leakage of drugs from nanocarriers seriously weakened the safety and efficacy of chemotherapy, and it was very critical of constructing tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive delivery nanocarriers, achieving the modulation release of drugs. Herein, using manganese dioxide (MnO2) as gatekeeper, an intelligent nanoplatform based on mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) was developed to deliver doxorubicin (DOX), by which the DOX release was precisely controlled, and simultaneously the photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) were realized. In normal physiological environment, the stable MnO2 shell effectively avoided the leakage of DOX. However, in TME, the overexpressed glutathione (GSH) degraded MnO2 shell, which caused the DOX release. Moreover, the photothermal effect of MPDA and the Fenton-like reaction of the generated Mn2+ further accelerated the cell death. Thus, the developed MPDA-DOX@MnO2 nanoplatform can intelligently modulate the release of DOX, and the combined CDT/PTT/chemotherapy possessed high-safety and high-efficacy against tumors.

Abstract
Immunogenic programmed cell death, such as pyroptosis and ferroptosis, efficiently induces an acute inflammatory response and boosts antitumor immunity. However, the exploration of dual-inducers, particularly nonmetallic inducers, capable of triggering both pyroptosis and ferroptosis remains limited. Here we show the construction of a covalent organic framework (COF-919) from planar and twisted AIEgen-based motifs as a dual-inducer of pyroptosis and ferroptosis for efficient antitumor immunity. Mechanistic studies reveal that COF-919 displays stronger near-infrared light absorption, lower band energy, and longer lifetime to favor the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and photothermal conversion, triggering pyroptosis. Because of its good ROS production capability, it upregulates intracellular lipid peroxidation, leading to glutathione depletion, low expression of glutathione peroxidase 4, and induction of ferroptosis. Additionally, the induction of pyroptosis and ferroptosis by COF-919 effectively inhibits tumor metastasis and recurrence, resulting in over 90% tumor growth inhibition and cure rates exceeding 80%.

Abstract
Pyroptosis is a pro-inflammatory cell death that is associated with innate immunity promotion against tumors. Excess nitric oxide (NO)-triggered nitric stress has potential to induce pyroptosis, but the precise delivery of NO is challenging. Ultrasound (US)-responsive NO production has dominant priority due to its deep penetration, low side effects, noninvasion, and local activation manner. In this work, US-sensitive NO donor N-methyl-N-nitrosoaniline (NMA) with thermodynamically favorable structure is selected and loaded into hyaluronic acid (HA)-modified hollow manganese dioxide nanoparticles (hMnO2 NPs) to fabricate hMnO2 @HA@NMA (MHN) nanogenerators (NGs). The obtained NGs have a record-high NO generation efficiency under US irradiation and can release Mn2+ after targeting the tumor sites. Later on, cascade tumor pyroptosis and cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING)-based immunotherapy is achieved and tumor growth is effectively inhibited.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as a promising class of crystalline porous materials for cancer phototherapy, due to their exceptional characteristics, including light absorption, biocompatibility, and photostability. However, the aggregation-caused quenching effect and apoptosis resistance often limit their therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we demonstrated for the first time that linking luminogens with aggregation-induced emission effect (AIEgens) into COF networks via vinyl linkages was an effective strategy to construct nonmetallic pyroptosis inducers for boosting antitumor immunity. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the formation of the vinyl linkage in the AIE COF endowed it with not only high brightness but also strong light absorption ability, long lifetime, and high quantum yield to favor the generation of reactive oxygen species for eliciting pyroptosis. In addition, the synergized system of the AIE COF and αPD-1 not only effectively eradicated primary and distant tumors but also inhibited tumor recurrence and metastasis in a bilateral 4T1 tumor model.

Abstract
Herein, a novel triple-layered heterojunction catalytic cathode membrane (PVDF/rGO/TFe/MnO2, TMOHccm) was reported and applied in seawater electro membrane reactor assisted electrolytic cell system (SEMR-EC), achieving increased properties for cyanide wastewater treatment. Hydrophilic TMOHccm exhibits higher electrochemical activity (qT* 1.11 C cm-2, qo* 0.03 C cm-2), indicating excellent electron transfer efficiency. Further analysis shows a one-electron redox cycle of exposed transition metal oxides (TMOs) on rGO support mediated oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) process, and calculated results of density functional theory (DFT) demonstrates positive Bader charge (72 |e|) of synthesized catalyst. The developed SEMR-EC was implemented in intermittent-stream operation for treating cyanide wastewater, the system achieved optimized decyanation and carbon removal performance (CN- 100%, TOC 88.49%). Hyperoxidation active species produced SEMR-EC including hydroxyl, sulfate, and reactive chlorine species (RCS) was confirmed. The proposed mechanistic explanation indicated multiple removal pathways relevant to cyanide, organic matter, and iron were elucidated, and the engineering applications prospects were highlighted by cost (5.61 $) and benefit (Ce 399.26 mW m-2 $-1, EFe 248.11 g kWh-1) analysis of the system.

Abstract
Rapid advancements in materials science and nanotechnology, intertwined with oncology, have positioned photothermal therapy (PTT) as a promising noninvasive treatment strategy for cancer. The breast's superficial anatomical location and aesthetic significance render breast cancer a particularly pertinent candidate for the clinical application of PTT following melanoma. This review comprehensively explores the research conducted on the various types of nanoparticles employed in PTT for breast cancer and elaborates on their specific roles and mechanisms of action. The integration of PTT with existing clinical therapies for breast cancer is scrutinized, underscoring its potential for synergistic outcomes. Additionally, the mechanisms underlying PTT and consequential modifications to the tumor microenvironment after treatment are elaborated from a medical perspective. Future research directions are suggested, with an emphasis on the development of integrative platforms that combine multiple therapeutic approaches and the optimization of nanoparticle synthesis for enhanced treatment efficacy. The goal is to push the boundaries of PTT toward a comprehensive, clinically applicable treatment for breast cancer.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has garnered significant interest as an innovative approach for cancer treatment, owing to its notable tumor specificity and selectivity, minimal systemic toxicity and side effects, and absence of the requirement for field stimulation during treatment. This treatment utilizes nanocatalytic medicines containing transitional metals to release metal ions within tumor cells, subsequently initiating Fenton and Fenton-like reactions. These reactions convert hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into hydroxyl radical (•OH) specifically within the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME), thereby inducing apoptosis in tumor cells. However, insufficient endogenous H2O2, the overexpressed reducing substances in the TME, and the weak acidity of solid tumors limit the performance of CDT and restrict its application in vivo. Therefore, a variety of nanozymes and strategies have been designed and developed in order to potentiate CDT against tumors, including the application of various nanozymes and different strategies to remodel TME for enhanced CDT (e.g., increasing the H2O2 level in situ, depleting reductive substances, and lowering the pH value). This review presents an overview of the design and development of various nanocatalysts and the corresponding strategies employed to enhance catalytic drug targeting in recent years. Additionally, it delves into the prospects and obstacles that lie ahead for the future advancement of CDT.

Abstract
The diagnosis of gastrointestinal (GI) diseases currently relies primarily on invasive procedures like digestive endoscopy. However, these procedures can cause discomfort, respiratory issues, and bacterial infections in patients, both during and after the examination. In recent years, nanomedicine has emerged as a promising field, providing significant advancements in diagnostic techniques. Nanoprobes, in particular, offer distinct advantages, such as high specificity and sensitivity in detecting GI diseases. Integration of nanoprobes with advanced imaging techniques, such as nuclear magnetic resonance, optical fluorescence imaging, tomography, and optical correlation tomography, has significantly enhanced the detection capabilities for GI tumors and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This synergy enables early diagnosis and precise staging of GI disorders. Among the nanoparticles investigated for clinical applications, superparamagnetic iron oxide, quantum dots, single carbon nanotubes, and nanocages have emerged as extensively studied and utilized agents. This review aimed to provide insights into the potential applications of nanoparticles in modern imaging techniques, with a specific focus on their role in facilitating early and specific diagnosis of a range of GI disorders, including IBD and colorectal cancer (CRC). Additionally, we discussed the challenges associated with the implementation of nanotechnology-based GI diagnostics and explored future prospects for translation in this promising field.

Abstract
cGAS-STING signaling is a central component in the therapeutic action of most existing cancer therapies. The accumulated knowledge of tumor immunoregulatory network in recent years has spurred the development of cGAS-STING agonists for tumor treatment as an effective immunotherapeutic strategy. However, the clinical translation of these agonists is thus far unsatisfactory because of the low immunostimulatory efficacy and unrestricted side effects under clinically relevant conditions. Interestingly, the rational integration of biomaterial technology offers a promising approach to overcome these limitations for more effective and safer cGAS-STING-mediated tumor therapy. Herein, we first outline the cGAS-STING signaling axis and generally discuss its association with tumors. We then symmetrically summarize the recent progress in those biomaterial-based cGAS-STING agonism strategies to generate robust antitumor immunity, categorized by the chemical nature of those cGAS-STING stimulants and carrier substrates. Finally, a perspective is provided to discuss the existing challenges and potential opportunities in cGAS-STING modulation for tumor therapy.

Abstract
Engineering advanced therapeutic and diagnostic nano-bio-platforms (NBPFs) have emerged as rapidly-developed pathways against a wide range of challenges in antitumor, antipathogen, tissue regeneration, bioimaging, and biosensing applications. Emerged 2D materials have attracted extensive scientific interest as fundamental building blocks or nanostructures among material scientists, chemists, biologists, and doctors due to their advantageous physicochemical and biological properties. This timely review provides a comprehensive summary of creating advanced NBPFs via emerging 2D materials (2D-NBPFs) with unique insights into the corresponding molecularly restructured microenvironments and biofunctionalities. First, it is focused on an up-to-date overview of the synthetic strategies for designing 2D-NBPFs with a cross-comparison of their advantages and disadvantages. After that, the recent key achievements are summarized in tuning the biofunctionalities of 2D-NBPFs via molecularly programmed microenvironments, including physiological stability, biocompatibility, bio-adhesiveness, specific binding to pathogens, broad-spectrum pathogen inhibitors, stimuli-responsive systems, and enzyme-mimetics. Moreover, the representative therapeutic and diagnostic applications of 2D-NBPFs are also discussed with detailed disclosure of their critical design principles and parameters. Finally, current challenges and future research directions are also discussed. Overall, this review will provide cutting-edge and multidisciplinary guidance for accelerating future developments and therapeutic/diagnostic applications of 2D-NBPFs.

Abstract
Manganese is an essential trace element in the human body that acts as a cofactor in many enzymes and metabolisms. It is important to develop methods to detect Mn2+ in living cells. While fluorescent sensors have been very effective in detecting other metal ions, Mn2+-specific fluorescent sensors are rarely reported due to nonspecific fluorescence quenching by the paramagnetism of Mn2+ and poor selectivity against other metal ions such as Ca2+ and Mg2+. To address these issues, we herein report in vitro selection of an RNA-cleaving DNAzyme with exceptionally high selectivity for Mn2+. Through converting it into a fluorescent sensor using a catalytic beacon approach, Mn2+ sensing in immune cells and tumor cells has been achieved. The sensor is also used to monitor degradation of manganese-based nanomaterials such as MnOx in tumor cells. Therefore, this work provides an excellent tool to detect Mn2+ in biological systems and monitor the Mn2+-involved immune response and antitumor therapy.

Abstract
Nanomaterials and nanotechnology have this unassailable position for environmental remediation and medicine. Currently, global environmental pollution and public health problems are increasing and need to be urgently addressed. Manganese (Mn) is one of the essential metal elements for plants and animals, it is necessary to integrate with nanotechnology. Mn and Mn oxide (MnO) nanoparticles (NPs) have applications in dye degradation, biomedicine, electrochemical sensors, plant and animal growth, and catalysis. However, the current research is limited, especially in terms of optimal synthesis of Mn and MnO NPs, separation, purification conditions, and the development of potential application areas is too basic and do not support by in-depth studies. Hence, this review comprehensively discusses the classification, green synthesis methods, and applications of Mn and MnO NPs in biomedical, environmental, and other fields and gives a perspective for the future.

Abstract
Although there are many studies on the preparation and electrochemical properties of the different crystal forms of manganese dioxide, there are few studies on their preparation by a liquid phase method and the influence of their physical and chemical properties on their electrochemical performance. In this paper, five crystal forms of manganese dioxide were prepared by using manganese sulfate as a manganese source and the difference of their physical and chemical properties was studied by phase morphology, specific surface area, pore size, pore volume, particle size and surface structure. The different crystal forms of manganese dioxide were prepared as electrode materials, and their specific capacitance composition was obtained by performing CV and EIS in a three-electrode system, introducing kinetic calculation and analyzing the principle of electrolyte ions in the electrode reaction process. The results show that δ-MnO2 has the largest specific capacitance due to its layered crystal structure, large specific surface area, abundant structural oxygen vacancies and interlayer bound water, and its capacity is mainly controlled by capacitance. Although the tunnel of the γ-MnO2 crystal structure is small, its large specific surface area, large pore volume and small particle size make it have a specific capacitance that is only inferior to δ-MnO2, and the diffusion contribution in the capacity accounts for nearly half, indicating it also has the characteristics of battery materials. α-MnO2 has a larger crystal tunnel structure, but its capacity is lower due to the smaller specific surface area and less structural oxygen vacancies. ε-MnO2 has a lower specific capacitance is not only the same disadvantage as α-MnO2, but also the disorder of its crystal structure. The tunnel size of β-MnO2 is not conducive to the interpenetration of electrolyte ions, but its high oxygen vacancy concentration makes its contribution of capacitance control obvious. EIS data shows that δ-MnO2 has the smallest charge transfer impedance and bulk diffusion impedance, while the two impedances of γ-MnO2 were the largest, which shows that its capacity performance has great potential for improvement. Combined with the calculation of electrode reaction kinetics and the performance test of five crystal capacitors and batteries, it is shown that δ-MnO2 is more suitable for capacitors and γ-MnO2 is more suitable for batteries.

Abstract
Nano-encapsulated manganese oxide (NEMO) particles are noteworthy contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) due to their bright, pH-switchable signal ("OFF" to "ON" at low pH), high metal loading, and targeting capability for increased specificity. For the first time, we performed a head-to-head comparison of NEMO particles from In-house and commercialized sources (US Nano vs Nanoshel) to assess their potential as bright T1 MRI contrast agents. Manganese oxide nanocrystals (MnO, Mn2O3, and Mn3O4) were systematically evaluated for size, chemistry, release of manganese ions, and MRI signal pre- and post-encapsulation within poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA). Suprisingly, a majority of the commercialized formulations were not as advertised by displaying unintended sizes, morphologies, chemistry, dissolution profiles, and/or MRI signal that precludes in vivo use. US Nano's Mn3O4 and Mn2O3 nanocrystals contained impurities that impacted Mn ion release as well as micron-sized rodlike structures. Nanoshel's MnO and Mn2O3 nanoparticles had very large hydrodynamic sizes (>600 nm). In-house MnO and Nanoshel's Mn3O4 nanoparticles demonstrated the best characteristics with brighter T1 MRI signals, small hydrodynamic sizes, and high encapsulation efficiencies. Our findings highlight that researchers must confirm the properties of purchased nanomaterials before utilizing them in desired applications, as their experimental success may be impacted.

[PMID: 37231062 PMCID: PMC10213021 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-35341-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Manganese dioxide nanoparticles (MnO2-NPs) have a wide range of applications in biomedicine. Given this widespread usage, it is worth noting that MnO2-NPs are definitely toxic, especially to the brain. However, the damage caused by MnO2-NPs to the choroid plexus (CP) and to the brain after crossing CP epithelial cells has not been elucidated. Therefore, this study aims to investigate these effects and elucidate potential underlying mechanisms through transcriptomics analysis. To achieve this objective, eighteen SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: the control group (control), low-dose exposure group (low-dose) and high-dose exposure group (high-dose). Animals in the two treated groups were administered with two concentrations of MnO2-NPs (200 mg kg-1 BW and 400 mg kg-1 BW) using a noninvasive intratracheal injection method once a week for three months. Finally, the neural behavior of all the animals was tested using a hot plate tester, open-field test and Y-type electric maze. The morphological characteristics of the CP and hippocampus were observed by H&E stain, and the transcriptome of CP tissues was analysed by transcriptome sequencing. The representative differentially expressed genes were quantified by qRT-PCR. We found that treatment with MnO2-NPs could induce learning capacity and memory faculty decline and destroy the structure of hippocampal and CP cells in rats. High doses of MnO2-NPs had a more obvious destructive capacity. For transcriptomic analysis, we found that there were significant differences in the numbers and types of differential genes in CP between the low- and high-dose groups compared to the control. Through GO terms and KEGG analysis, high-dose MnO2-NPs significantly affected the expression of transporters, ion channel proteins, and ribosomal proteins. There were 17 common differentially expressed genes. Most of them were transporter and binding genes on the cell membrane, and some of them had kinase activity. Three genes, Brinp, Synpr and Crmp1, were selected for qRT-PCR to confirm their expression differences among the three groups. In conclusion, high-dose MnO2-NPs exposure induced abnormal neurobehaviour, impaired memory function, destroyed the structure of the CP and changed its transcriptome in rats. The most significant DEGs in the CP were within the transport system.

A hybrid nanopharmaceutical for specific-amplifying oxidative stress to initiate a cascade of catalytic therapy for pancreatic cancer. J Nanobiotechnology 2023; 21:165.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress (OS) induced by an imbalance of oxidants and antioxidants is an important aspect in anticancer therapy, however, as an adaptive response, excessive glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) acts as an antioxidant against high reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and prevents OS damage to maintain redox homoeostasis, suppressing the clinical efficacy of OS-induced anticancer therapies. RESULTS A naturally occurring ROS-activating drug, galangin (GAL), is introduced into a Fenton-like catalyst (SiO2@MnO2) to form a TME stimulus-responsive hybrid nanopharmaceutical (SiO2-GAL@MnO2, denoted SG@M) for enhancing oxidative stress. Once exposed to TME, as MnO2 responds and consumes GSH, the released Mn2+ converts endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into hydroxyl radicals (·OH), which together with the subsequent release of GAL from SiO2 increases ROS. The "overwhelming" ROS cause OS-mediated mitochondrial malfunction with a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), which releases cytochrome c from mitochondria, activates the Caspase 9/Caspase 3 apoptotic cascade pathway. Downregulation of JAK2 and STAT3 phosphorylation levels blocks the JAK2/STAT3 cell proliferation pathway, whereas downregulation of Cyclin B1 protein levels arrest the cell cycle in the G2/M phase. During 18 days of in vivo treatment observation, tumor growth inhibition was found to be 62.7%, inhibiting the progression of pancreatic cancer. Additionally, the O2 and Mn2+ released during this cascade catalytic effect improve ultrasound imaging (USI) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), respectively. CONCLUSION This hybrid nanopharmaceutical based on oxidative stress amplification provides a strategy for multifunctional integrated therapy of malignant tumors and image-visualized pharmaceutical delivery.

Abstract
Gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agents (CAs) for clinical magnetic resonance imaging are facing the problems of low longitudinal relaxivity (r1) and toxicity caused by gadolinium deposition. Manganese-based small molecule complexes and manganese oxide nanoparticles (MONs) are considered as potential alternatives to Gd-based CAs due to their better biocompatibility, but their relatively low r1 values and complicated synthesis routes slow down their clinical translation. Herein, we presented a facile one-step co-precipitation method to prepare MONs using poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) as a coating agent (MnO2/PAA NPs), which exhibited good biocompatibility and high r1 values. A series of MnO2/PAA NPs with different particle sizes were prepared and the relationship between the particle size and r1 was studied, revealing that the MnO2/PAA NPs with a particle size of 4.9 nm exhibited higher r1. The finally obtained MnO2/PAA NPs had a high r1 value (29.0 Mn mM-1 s-1) and a low r2/r1 ratio (1.8) at 1.5 T, resulting in a strong T1 contrast enhancement. In vivo magnetic resonance angiography with Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats further proved that the MnO2/PAA NPs showed better angiographic performance at low-dosage administration than commercial Gadovist® (Gd-DO3A-Butrol). Moreover, the MnO2/PAA NPs could be rapidly cleared out after imaging, which effectively minimized the toxic side effects. The MnO2/PAA NPs are promising candidates for MR imaging of vascular diseases.

Abstract
Cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs), as one type of Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING) pathway agonist, have shown promising results for eliciting immune responses against cancer and viral infection. However, the suboptimal drug-like properties of conventional CDNs, including their short in vivo half-life and poor cellular permeability, compromise their therapeutic efficacy. In this study, we have developed a manganese-silica nanoplatform (MnOx@HMSN) that enhances the adjuvant effects of CDN by achieving synergy with Mn2+ for vaccination against cancer and SARS-CoV-2. MnOx@HMSN with large mesopores were efficiently co-loaded with CDN and peptide/protein antigens. MnOx@HMSN(CDA) amplified the activation of the STING pathway and enhanced the production of type-I interferons and other proinflammatory cytokines from dendritic cells. MnOx@HMSN(CDA) carrying cancer neoantigens elicited robust antitumor T-cell immunity with therapeutic efficacy in two different murine tumor models. Furthermore, MnOx@HMSN(CDA) loaded with SARS-CoV-2 antigen achieved strong and durable (up to one year) humoral immune responses with neutralizing capability. These results demonstrate that MnOx@HMSN(CDA) is a versatile nanoplatform for vaccine applications.

Abstract
As an essential micronutrient, manganese (Mn) participates in various physiological processes and plays important roles in host immune system, hematopoiesis, endocrine function, and oxidative stress regulation. Mn-based nanoparticles are considered to be biocompatible and show versatile applications in nanomedicine, in particular utilized in tumor immunotherapy in the following ways: 1) acting as a biocompatible nanocarrier to deliver immunotherapeutic agents for tumor immunotherapy; 2) serving as an adjuvant to regulate tumor immune microenvironment and enhance immunotherapy; 3) activating host's immune system through the cGAS-STING pathway to trigger tumor immunotherapy; 4) real-time monitoring tumor immunotherapy effect by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) since Mn2+ ions are ideal MRI contrast agent which can significantly enhance the T1 -weighted MRI signal after binding to proteins. This comprehensive review focuses on the most recent progress of Mn-based nanoplatforms in tumor immunotherapy. The characteristics of Mn are first discussed to guide the design of Mn-based multifunctional nanoplatforms. Then the biomedical applications of Mn-based nanoplatforms, including immunotherapy alone, immunotherapy-involved multimodal synergistic therapy, and imaging-guided immunotherapy are discussed in detail. Finally, the challenges and future developments of Mn-based tumor immunotherapy are highlighted.

Abstract
Programmed cell death (PCD, mainly including apoptosis, necrosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy) and immunogenic cell death (ICD), as important cell death mechanisms, are widely reported in cancer therapy, and understanding the relationship between the two is significant for clinical tumor treatments. Considering that vast nanodrugs are developed to induce tumor PCD and ICD simultaneously, in this review, the interrelationship between PCD and ICD is described using nanomedicines as examples. First, an overview of PCD patterns and focus on the morphological differences and interconnections among them are provided. Then the interrelationship between apoptosis and ICD in terms of endoplasmic reticulum stress is described by introducing various cancer treatments and the recent developments of nanomedicines with inducible immunogenicity. Next, the crosstalk between non-apoptotic (including necrosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy) signaling pathways and ICD is introduced and their relationship through various nanomedicines as examples is further illustrated. Finally, the relationship between PCD and ICD and its application prospects in the development of new ICD nanomaterials are summarized. This review is believed to deepen the understanding of the relationship between PCD and ICD, extend the biomedical applications of various nanodrugs, and promote the progress of clinical tumor therapy.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have been worldwide threats nowadays. Liver fibrosis is reversible in early stages but will develop precancerosis of HCC in cirrhotic stage. In pathological liver, excessive H2O2 is generated and accumulated, which impacts the functionality of hepatocytes, Kupffer cells (KCs) and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), leading to genesis of fibrosis and HCC. H2O2 accumulation is associated with overproduction of superoxide anion (O2•−) and abolished antioxidant enzyme systems. Plenty of therapeutics focused on H2O2 have shown satisfactory effects against liver fibrosis or HCC in different ways. This review summarized the reasons of liver H2O2 accumulation, and the role of H2O2 in genesis of liver fibrosis and HCC. Additionally, nanotherapeutics targeting H2O2 were summarized for further consideration of antifibrotic or antitumor therapy. Liver fibrosis and HCC are closely related because ROS induced liver damage and inflammation, especially over-cumulated H2O2. Excess H2O2 diffusion in pathological liver was due to increased metabolic rate and diminished cellular antioxidant systems. Freely diffused H2O2 damaged liver-specific cells, thereby leading to fibrogenesis and hepatocarcinogenesis. Nanotherapeutics targeting H2O2 are summarized for treatment of liver fibrosis and HCC, and also challenges are proposed.

Abstract
Manganese oxide nanomaterials (MONs) are emerging as a type of highly promising nanomaterials for diseases diagnosis, and surface modification is the basis for colloidal stability and targeting delivery of the nanomaterials. Here, we report the in-situ functionalization of MnO2 with DNA through a biomineralization process. Using adsorption-oxidation method, DNA templated Mn2+ precursor to biomineralize into nano-cubic seed, followed by the growth of MnO2 to form cube/nanosheet hybrid nanostructure. Among four types of DNA homopolymers, poly-thymine (poly-T) was found to stably attach on MnO2 surface to resist various biological displacements (phosphate, serum, and complementary DNA). Capitalized on this finding, a di-block DNA was rationally designed, in which the poly-T block stably anchored on MnO2 surface, while the AS1411 aptamer block was not only an active ligand for tumor targeting delivery, but also a carrier for photosensitizer (Ce6) loading. Upon targeting delivery into tumor cells, the MnO2 acted as catalase-mimic nanozyme for oxygenation to sensitize photodynamic therapy, and the released Mn2+ triggered chemodynamic therapy via Fenton-like reaction, achieving synergistic anti-tumor effect with full biocompatibility. This work provides a simple yet robust strategy to functionalize metal oxides nanomaterials for biological applications via DNA-templated biomineralization.

Abstract
To combat bacteria and even biofilm infections, developing alternative antibacterial wound dressings independent of antibiotics is imperative. Herein, this study developed a series of bioactive chitin/Mn3O4 composite hydrogels under mild conditions for infected wound healing application. The in situ synthesized Mn3O4 NPs homogeneously distribute throughout chitin networks and strongly interact with chitin matrix, and as well as endow the chitin/Mn3O4 hydrogels with NIR-assisted outstanding photothermal antibacterial and antibiofilm activities. Meantime, the chitin/Mn3O4 hydrogels exhibit favorable biocompatibility and antioxidant property. Furthermore, the chitin/Mn3O4 hydrogels with the assist of NIR show an excellent skin wound healing performance in a mouse full-thickness S. aureus biofilms-infected wound model, by accelerating the phase transition from inflammation to remodeling. This study broadens the scope for the fabrication of chitin hydrogels with antibacterial property, and offers an excellent alternative for the bacterial-associated wound infection therapy.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance in cancer stem cells (CSCs) is a major barrier to chemotherapy; hence, developing CSC-specific targeted nanocarriers for efficient drug delivery is critical. In this study, monodisperse hollow-structured MnO2 (H-MnO2) with a mesoporous shell was created for efficient targeted drug delivery. An effective therapeutic compound isoliquiritigenin (ISL) was confirmed to inhibit the lung cancer stem-cell phenotype by natural compound screening based on integrated microfluidic devices. The resultant H-MnO2 showed a high drug-loading content of the potent CSC-targeting compound ISL and near-infrared fluorescent dye indocyanine green (ICG). In addition, H-MnO2 was successively modified with hyaluronic acid (HA) to enhance targeting CSCs with high CD44 expression levels. The H-MnO2@(ICG + ISL)@HA nanocomposites displayed promising chemotherapeutic and photothermal treatment capabilities, as well as NIR-triggered drug release, which showed excellent CSC-killing effects and tumor inhibition efficacy. Meanwhile, the development of the tumor was effectively restrained by NIR-triggered phototherapy and prominent chemotherapy without obvious side effects after tail vein injection of the nanocomposites in vivo. In summary, the prepared nanocomposites accomplished synergistic cancer therapy that targets CSCs, offering a versatile platform for lung cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Circadian rhythm (CR) disruption contributes to tumor initiation and progression, however the pharmacological targeting of circadian regulators reversely inhibits tumor growth. Precisely controlling CR in tumor cells is urgently required to investigate the exact role of CR interruption in tumor therapy. Herein, based on KL001, a small molecule that specifically interacts with the clock gene cryptochrome (CRY) functioning at disruption of CR, we fabricated a hollow MnO2 nanocapsule carrying KL001 and photosensitizer BODIPY with the modification of alendronate (ALD) on the surface (H-MnSiO/K&B-ALD) for osteosarcoma (OS) targeting. The H-MnSiO/K&B-ALD nanoparticles reduced the CR amplitude in OS cells without affecting cell proliferation. Furthermore, nanoparticles-controlled oxygen consumption by inhibiting mitochondrial respiration via CR disruption, thus partially overcoming the hypoxia limitation for photodynamic therapy (PDT) and significantly promoting PDT efficacy. An orthotopic OS model demonstrated that KL001 significantly enhanced the inhibitory effect of H-MnSiO/K&B-ALD nanoparticles on tumor growth after laser irradiation. CR disruption and oxygen level enhancement induced by H-MnSiO/K&B-ALD nanoparticles under laser irradiation were also confirmed in vivo. This discovery first demonstrated the potential of CR controlling for tumor PDT ablation and provided a promising strategy for overcoming tumor hypoxia.

Abstract
Overcoming the resistance to apoptosis and immunosuppression of tumor cells is a significant challenge in augmenting the effect of cancer immunotherapy. Pyroptosis, a lytic programmed cell-death pathway unlike apoptosis, is considered a type of immunogenic cell death (ICD) that can intensify the ICD process in tumor cells, releasing dramatically increased tumor-associated antigens and damage-associated molecular patterns to promote cancer immunotherapy. Herein, a tumor cell membrane-targeted aggregation-induced emission photosensitive dimer is found to be able to achieve highly efficient ICD under the synergistic effect of photodynamic and photothermal therapy. The photosensitive dimer can efficiently produce type-I reactive oxygen species (ROS) by photodynamic therapy in hypoxic tumor tissue, leading to pyroptosis by direct cell membrane damage, which is further reinforced by its photothermal effect. Furthermore, the enhanced ICD effect based on the dimer can completely eliminate the primary tumor on the seventh day of treatment and can also boost systemic antitumor immunity by generating immune memory, which is demonstrated by the superior antitumor therapeutic effects on both solid tumors and metastatic tumors when healing 4T1 tumor mouse models with poor immunogenicity.

Proton pump inhibitor-enhanced nanocatalytic ferroptosis induction for stimuli-responsive dual-modal molecular imaging guided cancer radiosensitization. Acta Biomater 2023; 162:72-84.

Abstract
Although radiotherapeutic efficiency has been revealed to be positively correlated with ferroptosis, the neutral/alkaline cytoplasm pH value of tumor cells remains an intrinsic challenge for efficient Fenton/Fenton-like reaction-based ferroptosis induction. Herein, PEGylated hollow mesoporous organosilica nanotheranostics (HMON)-GOx@MnO2 nanoparticles (HGMP NPs) were designed as a ferroptosis inducer, which could specifically release Mn2+ in tumor cells to activate the Fenton-like reaction for ferroptosis induction. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) were synchronously administered for cytoplasm pH level regulation by inhibiting V-H+-ATPases activity, enhancing Fenton-like reaction-based ferroptosis induction. Moreover, reactive oxygen species production was facilitated via the glucose oxidase triggered cascade catalytic reaction by utilizing intracellular β-D-glucose for H2O2 self-supply and generation of additional cytoplasm H+. The PPI enhanced ferroptosis inducing nanosystem effectively inhibited tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo for tumor-specific ferroptosis induction and radiotherapy sensitization, suggesting that PPI administration could be an efficient adjuvant to reinforce Fenton/Fenton-like reaction-based ferroptosis induction for radiosensitization. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The cytoplasm pH value of tumor cells is typically neutral to alkaline, which is higher than that of the Fenton/Fenton-like reaction desired acidic environments, hindering its efficiency. In this study, PEGylated hollow mesoporous organosilica nanotheranostics (HMON)-GOx@MnO2 nanoparticles were synthesized as a ferroptosis inducer, which could specifically release Mn2+ via depleting glutathione and then activate the Fenton-like reaction in the tumor microenvironment. The glucose oxidase was applied for H2O2 self-supply and addition of cytoplasm H+ to further boost the Fenton-like reaction. We found that proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) increased intracellular acidification by inhibiting the activity of V-H+-ATPases to enhance the Fenton reaction-based ferroptosis induction, suggesting PPIs administration could be a feasible strategy to reinforce ferroptosis induction for radiosensitization.

Abstract
Radiotherapy (RT), as one of the main methods in the clinical treatment of various malignant tumors, would induce systemic immunotherapeutic effects by triggering immunogenic cell death (ICD) of cancer cells. However, the antitumor immune responses produced by RT-induced ICD alone usually are not robust enough to eliminate distant tumors and thus ineffective against cancer metastases. Herein, a biomimetic mineralization method for facile synthesis of MnO2 nanoparticles with high anti-programmed death ligand 1 (αPDL1) encapsulation efficiency (αPDL1@MnO2) is proposed to reinforce RT-induced systemic antitumor immune responses. This therapeutic nanoplatforms-mediated RT can significantly improve the killing of tumor cells and effectively evoke ICD by overcoming hypoxia-induced radio-resistance and reprogramming the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Furthermore, the released Mn2+ ions from αPDL1@MnO2 under acidic tumor pH can activate the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway and facilitate the dendritic cells (DCs) maturation. Meanwhile, αPDL1 released from αPDL1@MnO2 nanoparticles would further promote the intratumoral infiltration of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and trigger systemic antitumor responses, resulting in a strong abscopal effect to effectively inhibit tumor metastases. Overall, the biomineralized MnO2-based nanoplatforms offer a simple strategy for TME modulation and immune activation, which are promising for enhanced RT immunotherapy.

Abstract
Due to their rapid and uncontrolled proliferation, cancer cells are characterized by overexpression of glutathione (GSH), which impairs reactive oxygen species (ROS)-based therapy and weakens the chemotherapeutic agent-induced toxification. Extensive efforts have been made in the past few years to improve therapeutic outcomes by depleting intracellular GSH. Special focus has been given to the anticancer applications of varieties of metal nanomedicines with GSH responsiveness and exhaustion capacity. In this review, we introduce several GSH-responsive and -exhausting metal nanomedicines that can specifically ablate tumors based on the high concentration of intracellular GSH in cancer cells. These include inorganic nanomaterials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and platinum-based nanomaterials. We then discuss in detail the metal nanomedicines that have been extensively applied in synergistic cancer therapy, including chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT), sonodynamic therapy (SDT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), ferroptotic therapy, and radiotherapy. Finally, we present the horizons and challenges in the field for future development.

Abstract
Hypoxia is a negative prognostic indicator of solid tumors, which not only changes the survival state of tumors and increases their invasiveness but also remarkably reduces the sensitivity of tumors to treatments such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy. Thus, developing therapeutic strategies to alleviate tumor hypoxia has recently been considered an extremely valuable target in oncology. In this review, nanotechnological strategies to elevate oxygen levels in tumor therapy in recent years are summarized, including (I) improving the hypoxic tumor microenvironment, (II) oxygen delivery to hypoxic tumors, and (III) oxygen generation in hypoxic tumors. Finally, the challenges and prospects of these nanotechnological strategies for alleviating tumor hypoxia are presented.

Abstract
Albumin-manganese-based nanocomposites (AMNs) characterized by simple preparation and good biocompatibility have been widely used for in vivo T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and cancer theranostics. Herein, an aggregation and crosslinking assembly strategy was proposed to achieve the sensitization to T1 relaxivity of the albumin-manganese nanocomposite. At a relatively low Mn content (0.35%), the aggregation and crosslinking of bovine serum albumin-MnO2 (BM) resulted in a dramatic increase of T1 relaxivity from 5.49 to 67.2 mM-1 s-1. Upon the loading of indocyanine green (ICG) into the crosslinked BM nanoaggregates (C-BM), the T1 relaxivity of the C-BM/ICG nanocomposite (C-BM/I) was further increased to 97.3 mM-1 s-1, which was much higher than those reported previously even at high Mn contents. Moreover, the presence of C-BM greatly enhanced the photoacoustic (PA) and photothermal effects of ICG at 830 and 808 nm, respectively, and the second near infrared fluorescence (NIR-II FL) of ICG also showed better stability. Therefore, the synthesized C-BM/ICG nanocomposite exhibited remarkable performance in in vivo multimodal imaging of tumors, such as T1-weighted MRI, NIR-II FL imaging and PA imaging, and cancer phototherapy with little side effects. This work provided a highly efficient and promising multifunctional nanoprobe for breaking through the limits of cancer theranostics, and opened a new avenue for the development of high-relaxivity AMNs and multimodal imaging methodology.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has shown potential for important applications in tumor precision therapy, but insufficient endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), overexpressed glutathione (GSH) and a weak Fenton-reaction rate greatly reduced the efficacy of CDT. Herein, a metal-organic framework (MOF) based bimetallic nanoprobe with self-supplying H2O2 was developed for enhancing CDT with triple amplification, in which ultrasmall gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were deposited on Co-based MOFs (ZIF-67), and manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoshells were coated to form a ZIF-67@AuNPs@MnO2 nanoprobe. In the tumor microenvironment, MnO2 depleted overexpressed GSH to produce Mn2+, and the bimetallic Co2+/Mn2+ nanoprobe accelerated the Fenton-like reaction rate. Moreover, by catalyzing glucose via ultrasmall AuNPs, the self-supplying H2O2 further promoted hydroxyl radical (˙OH) generation. Compared with those of ZIF-67 and ZIF-67@AuNPs, the ˙OH yield of ZIF-67@AuNPs@MnO2 obviously increased, due to which the cell viability decreased to 9.3%, and the tumor completely disappeared, indicating the enhanced CDT performance of the ZIF-67@AuNPs@MnO2 nanoprobe.

Abstract
Image-guided stimulus-responsive theranostics are beneficial for identifying malignant lesions and integrating multiple cell-killing mechanisms to enhance tumor cell clearance. Herein, an intelligent dual-responsive nanostructure (HSPMH-DOX) was developed for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). The core-shell nanostructure was synthesized by layering polydopamine (PDA), manganese oxide (MnO2), and hyaluronic acid (HA) onto drug-loaded hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HS). The constructed nanoagent has both endogenous and external dual responses. The tumor microenvironment (pH/GSH) can trigger the degradation of gatekeeper (MnO2 and PDA), resulting in the release of anti-tumor drugs, whereas external near-infrared light irradiation can accelerate the degradation process and generate local overheating, resulting in PTT. Notably, MnO2 can not only consume intracellular GSH to enhance CDT but also release Mn2+ for precise localization of tumor tissues using MRI. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments showed that the prepared dual-response nanoagent satisfied biocompatibility, targeting, and the great efficiency of MRI-guided combined therapy. In animal models, combining chemo-PTT and CDT can eradicate tumors in less than two weeks. This work could pave the way for a wide range of stimulus-responsive synergistic theranostic applications, including MRI, chemo-photothermal therapy, and chemodynmic therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Low bioavailability and severe side effects remain the major limitations of conventional cancer chemotherapy. Image-guided combination therapy can alleviate these problems and improve tumor-specific therapy. In the present study, the anticancer drug doxorubicin was encapsulated in a core-shell hollow mesoporous silica nanostructure (HSPMH-DOX), enabling MRI-guided targeted release under both endogenous and external dual stimuli. Moreover, the photothermal and nanoenzymatic effects of nanomedicine can cause local overheating in the tumor and amplify the intracellular CDT effect, accelerating tumor eradication. Systematic evaluations in vitro and in vivo confirmed that nanomedicine enables highly effective MRI-guided synergistic chemo-photothermal and chemodynamic therapy. This work offers a promising therapeutic strategy for precise anti-tumor applications.

Abstract
Novel sonosensitizers with intrinsic characteristics for tumor diagnosis, efficient therapy, and tumor microenvironment regulation are appealing in current sonodynamic therapy. Herein, a manganese (Mn)-layered double hydroxide-based defect-rich nanoplatform is presented as a new type of sono-chemo sensitizer, which allows ultrasound to efficiently trigger reactive oxygen species generation for enhanced sono/chemo-dynamic therapy. Moreover, such a nanoplatform is able to relieve tumor hypoxia and achieve augmented singlet oxygen production via catalyzing endogenous H2 O2 into O2 . On top of these actions, the released Mn2+ ions and immune-modulating agent significantly intensify immune activation and reverse the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment to the immunocompetent one. Consequently, this nanoplatform exhibits excellent anti-tumor efficacy and effectively suppresses both primary and distant tumor growth, demonstrating a new strategy to functionalize nanoparticles as sono-chemo sensitizers for synergistic combination cancer therapy.

Abstract
Ferroptosis has emerged as a therapeutic tactic to trigger cancer cell death driven by abnormal accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, a single ferroptosis treatment modality is often limited. In this work, a combination therapy of ferroptosis and immunotherapy for cancer was proposed. Specifically, a versatile nanodrug was designed for the multiple treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by loading dihydroartemisinin (DHA) on Fe3+-doped MnO2 nanosheets (Fe-MnO2/DHA). Firstly, Fe-MnO2/DHA was degraded by glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to release Fe2+, Mn2+ and DHA, leading to aberrant ROS accumulation due to Fenton/Fenton-like reaction. Secondly, breakage of endoperoxide bridge from DHA was caused by Fe2+ to further induce oxidative stress. Thirdly, the depleted GSH promoted the inactivation of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), resulting in lipid peroxide (LPO) accumulation. The resulting LPO and ROS could induce ferroptosis and apoptosis of liver cancer cells. Furthermore, Fe-MnO2/DHA mediated three-pronged stimulation of oxidative stress, resulting in high levels of targeted immunogenic cell death (ICD). It could enhance the infiltration of CD4+ T and CD8+ T cells, and promote macrophage polarization. DHA also acted as an immunomodulator to inhibit regulatory T cells (Tregs) for systemic antitumor. Overall, Fe-MnO2/DHA presents a multi-modal therapy for HCC driven by ferroptosis, apoptosis and immune activation, significantly advancing synergistic cancer treatment.

Abstract
Nanomedicine exhibits emerging potentials to deliver advanced therapeutic strategies in the fight against triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Nevertheless, it is still difficult to develop a precise codelivery system that integrates highly effective photosensitizers, low toxicity, and hydrophobicity. In this study, PCN-224 is selected as the carrier to enable effective cancer therapy through light-activated reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, and the PCN-224@Mn3 O4 @HA is created in a simple one-step process by coating Mn3 O4 nanoshells on the PCN-224 template, which can then be used as an "ROS activator" to exert catalase- and glutathione peroxidase-like activities to alleviate tumor hypoxia while reducing tumor reducibility, leading to improved photodynamic therapeutic (PDT) effect of PCN-224. Meanwhile, Mn2+ produced cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (∙OH) via the Fenton-like reaction, thus producing a promising spontaneous chemodynamic therapeutic (CDT) effect. Importantly, by remodeling the tumor microenvironment (TME), Mn3 O4 nanoshells downregulated hypoxia-inducible factor 1α expression, inhibiting tumor growth and preventing tumor revival. Thus, the developed nanoshells, via light-controlled ROS formation and multimodality imaging abilities, can effectively inhibit tumor proliferation through synergistic PDT/CDT, and prevent tumor resurgence by remodeling TME.

Abstract
Due to its low adverse effects, minimal invasiveness, and outstanding patient compliance, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has drawn a great deal of interest, which is achieved through incomplete reduction of O2 by a photosensitizer under light illumination that produces amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, tumor hypoxia significantly hinders the therapeutic effect of PDT so that tumor cells cannot be eliminated, which results in tumor cells proliferating, invading, and metastasizing. Additionally, O2 consumption during PDT exacerbates hypoxia in tumors, leading to several adverse events after PDT treatment. In recent years, various investigations have focused on conquering or using tumor hypoxia by nanomaterials to amplify PDT efficacy, which is summarized in this review. This comprehensive review's objective is to present novel viewpoints on the advancement of oxygenation nanomaterials in this promising field, which is motivated by hypoxia-associated anti-tumor therapy.

Abstract
Cancer therapies based on energy conversion, such as photothermal therapy (PTT, light-to-thermal energy conversion) and photodynamic therapy (PDT, light-to-chemical energy conversion) have attracted extensive attention in preclinical research. However, the PTT-related hyperthermia damage to surrounding tissues and shallow penetration of PDT-applied light prevent further advanced clinical practices. Here, we developed a thermoelectric therapy (TET) based on thermoelectric materials constructed p-n heterojunction (SrTiO3/Cu2Se nanoplates) on the principle of light-thermal-electricity-chemical energy conversion. Upon irradiation and natural cooling-induced the temperature gradient (35-45 oC), a self-build-in electric field was constructed and thereby facilitated charges separation in bulk SrTiO3 and Cu2Se. Importantly, the contact between SrTiO3 (n type) and Cu2Se (p type) constructed another interfacial electric field, further guiding the separated charges to re-locate onto the surfaces of SrTiO3 and Cu2Se. The formation of two electric fields minimized probability of charges recombination. Of note, high-performance superoxide radicals and hydroxyl radicals' generation from O2 and H2O under catalyzation by separated electrons and holes, led to intracellular ROS burst and cancer cells apoptosis without apparent damage to surrounding tissues. Construction of bulk and interfacial electric fields in heterojunction for improving charges separation and transfer is also expected to provide a robust strategy for diverse applications.
