Abstract
Over the past decade, we have seen rapid advances in applying nanotechnology in biomedical areas including bioimaging, biodetection, and drug delivery. As an emerging field, DNA nanotechnology offers simple yet powerful design techniques for self-assembly of nanostructures with unique advantages and high potential in enhancing drug targeting and reducing drug toxicity. Various sequence programming and optimization approaches have been developed to design DNA nanostructures with precisely engineered, controllable size, shape, surface chemistry, and function. Potent anticancer drug molecules, including Doxorubicin and CpG oligonucleotides, have been successfully loaded on DNA nanostructures to increase their cell uptake efficiency. These advances have implicated the bright future of DNA nanotechnology-enabled nanomedicine. In this review, we begin with the origin of DNA nanotechnology, followed by summarizing state-of-the-art strategies for the construction of DNA nanostructures and drug payloads delivered by DNA nanovehicles. Further, we discuss the cellular fates of DNA nanostructures as well as challenges and opportunities for DNA nanostructure-based drug delivery.

Abstract
Stem cell-based therapy is considered a promising approach for the repair of nervous tissues. Neural stem cells (NSCs) cannot proliferate or differentiate efficiently; hence, different biomaterials have been explored to improve NSC proliferation and differentiation. However, these agents either had low bioavailability or poor biocompatibility. In this work, our group investigated the effects of tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (TDNs), a novel DNA biological material, on the self-renew and differentiation of neuroectodermal (NE-4C) stem cells. We observed that TDN treatment promoted self-renew of the stem cells via activating the Wnt/β -catenin pathway. In addition, our findings suggested that NE-4C stem cells' neuronal differentiation could be promoted effectively by TDNs via inhibiting the notch signaling pathway. In summary, this is the first report about the effects of TDNs on the proliferation and differentiation of NE-4C stem cells and the results demonstrate that TDNs have a great potential in nerve tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Self-assembled DNA nanostructures have attracted significant research interest in biomedical applications because of their excellent programmability and biocompatibility. To develop multifunctional drug delivery from DNA nanostructures, considerable key information is still needed for clinical application. Traditional fixed endpoint assays do not reflect the dynamic and heterogeneous responses of cells with regard to drugs, and may lead to the misinterpretation of experimental results. For the first time, an integrated time-lapse live cell imaging system was used to study the cellular internalization and controlled drug release profile of three different shaped DNA origami/doxorubicin (DOX) complexes for three days. Our results demonstrated the dependence of DNA nanostructures on shape for drug delivery efficiency, while the rigid 3D DNA origami triangle frame exhibited enhanced cellular uptake capability, as compared with flexible 2D DNA structures. In addition, the translocation of released DOX into the nucleus was proved by fluorescence microscopy, in which a DOX-loaded 3D DNA triangle frame displayed a stronger accumulation of DOX in nuclei. Moreover, given the facile drug loading and auto fluorescence of the anti-cancer drug, DOX, our results suggest that the DNA nanostructure is a promising candidate, as a label-free nanocarrier, for DOX delivery, with great potential for anticancer therapy as well.

Abstract
DNA origami methods enable the fabrication of various nanostructures and nanodevices, but their effective use depends on an understanding of their structural and mechanical properties and the effects of basic structural features. Frequency-modulation atomic force microscopy is introduced to directly characterize, in aqueous solution, the crossover regions of sets of 2D DNA origami based on different crossover/nick designs. Rhombic-shaped nanostructures formed under the influence of flexible crossovers placed between DNA helices are observed in DNA origami incorporating crossovers every 3, 4, or 6 DNA turns. The bending rigidity of crossovers is determined to be only one-third of that of the DNA helix, based on interhelical electrostatic forces reported elsewhere, and the measured pitches of the 3-turn crossover design rhombic-shaped nanostructures undergoing negligible bending. To evaluate the robustness of their structural integrity, they are intentionally and simultaneously stressed using force-controlled atomic force microscopy. DNA crossovers are verified to have a stabilizing effect on the structural robustness, while the nicks have an opposite effect. The structural and mechanical properties of DNA origami and the effects of crossovers and nicks revealed in this paper can provide information essential for the design of versatile DNA origami structures that exhibit specified and desirable properties.

Abstract
Formulating pharmaceutically active ingredients for drug delivery is a challenge. There is a need for new drug delivery systems that take up therapeutic molecules and release them into biological systems. We propose a novel mode of encapsulation that involves matrices formed through co-assembly of drugs with adamantane hybrids that feature four CG dimers as sticky ends. Such adamantanes are accessible via inexpensive solution-phase syntheses, and the resulting materials show attractive properties for controlled release. This is demonstrated for two different hybrids and a series of drugs, including anticancer drugs, antibiotics, and cyclosporin. Up to 20 molar equivalents of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are encapsulated in hybrid materials. Encapsulation is demonstrated for DNA-binding and several non-DNA binding compounds. Nanoparticles were detected that range in size from 114-835 nm average diameter, and ζ potentials were found to be between -29 and +28 mV. Release of doxorubicin into serum at near-constant rates for 10 days was shown, demonstrating the potential for slow release. The encapsulation and release in self-assembling matrices of dinucleotide-bearing adamantanes appears to be broadly applicable and may thus lead to new drug delivery systems for APIs.

Abstract
Self-assembled nucleic acids perform biological, chemical, and mechanical work at the nanoscale. DNA-based molecular machines have been designed here to perform work by reacting with cancer-specific miRNA mimics and then regulating gene expression in vitro by tuning RNA polymerase activity. Because RNA production is topologically restrained, the machines demonstrate chromatin analogous gene expression (CAGE). With modular and tunable design features, CAGE has potential for molecular biology, synthetic biology, and personalized medicine applications.

Abstract
DNA nanostructures largely rely on pairing DNA bases; thus, sequence designing is required. Here, this study demonstrates a sequence-independent strategy to fabricate DNA nanogel (NG) inspired by cisplatin, a chemotherapeutic drug that acts as a DNA crosslinker. A simple heating and cooling of the genomic DNA extracts and cisplatin produces DNA NG with a size controlled by the heating time. Furthermore, the drug-loaded NG is formulated by spontaneously mixing DNA segments, cisplatin, and doxorubicin. The in vitro cell studies demonstrate that the doxorubicin-loaded NG alters the drug distribution in cells while its cytotoxic potential is well-maintained. This chemotherapeutic-inspired method provides a facile one-pot and cost-effective strategy to fabricate size-controllable DNA NG that potentially acts as drug carrier.

Abstract
In the quest of greater sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic systems, one continually searches for alternative DNA hybridization methods, enabling greater versatility and where possible field-enabled detection of target analytes. We present, herein, a hybrid molecular self-assembled scaffolded DNA origami entity, intimately immobilized via capture probes linked to aminopropyltriethoxysilane, onto a glass optical fiber end-face transducer, thus producing a novel biosensor. Immobilized DNA nanorobots with a switchable flap can then be actuated by a specific target DNA present in a sample, by exposing a hemin/G-quadruplex DNAzyme, which then catalyzes the generation of chemiluminescence, once the specific fiber probes are immersed in a luminol-based solution. Integrating organic nanorobots to inorganic fiber optics creates a hybrid system that we demonstrate as a proof-of-principle can be utilized in specific DNA sequence detection. This system has potential applications in a wide range of fields, including point-of-care diagnostics or cellular in vivo biosensing when using ultrathin fiber optic probes for research purposes.

Abstract
Co-delivery of both chemotherapy drugs and siRNA from a single delivery vehicle can have a significant impact on cancer therapy due to the potential for overcoming issues such as drug resistance. However, the inherent chemical differences between charged nucleic acids and hydrophobic drugs have hindered entrapment of both components within a single carrier. While poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PEG-PLGA) copolymers have been used successfully for targeted delivery of chemotherapy drugs, loading of DNA or RNA has been poor. It is demonstrated that significant amounts of DNA can be encapsulated within PLGA-containing nanoparticles through the use of a new synthetic DNA analog, click nucleic acids (CNAs). First, triblock copolymers of PEG-CNA-PLGA are synthesized and then formulated into polymer nanoparticles from oil-in-water emulsions. The CNA-containing particles show high encapsulation of DNA complementary to the CNA sequence, whereas PEG-PLGA alone shows minimal DNA loading, and non-complementary DNA strands do not get encapsulated within the PEG-CNA-PLGA nanoparticles. Furthermore, the dye pyrene can be successfully co-loaded with DNA and lastly, a complex, larger DNA sequence that contains an overhang complementary to the CNA can also be encapsulated, demonstrating the potential utility of the CNA-containing particles as carriers for chemotherapy agents and gene silencers.

Abstract
Self-assembled nanostructures have been used for the detection of numerous cancer biomarkers. In this study, a gold-upconversion-nanoparticle (Au-UCNP) pyramid based on aptamers is fabricated to simultaneously detect thrombin and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and fluorescence, respectively. The higher the concentration of thrombin, the lower the intensity of SERS. PSA connected with the PSA aptamer leads to an increase in fluorescence intensity. The limit of detection of thrombin and PSA reaches 57 × 10-18 and 0.032 × 10-18 m, respectively. In addition, the pyramid also exhibits great target specificity. The results of human serum target detection demonstrate that the Au-UCNP pyramid is an excellent choice for the quantitative determination of cancer biomarkers, and is feasible for the early diagnosis of cancer.

Abstract
DNA is emerging as a smart material to construct nanovehicles for targeted drug delivery. The programmability of Watson-Crick base paring enables construction of defined and dynamic DNA nanostructures of almost arbitrary shape and DNA can readily be functionalized with a variety of molecular modules. The applications of DNA nanostructures are still in its infancy, but one of the high expectations are to deliver solutions for targeted therapy. Nucleic acids, however, do not easily enter cells unassisted and biological barriers and harsh nucleolytic conditions in the human body must also be overcome. Here, we highlight recent strategies for DNA nanostructures in drug delivery, DNA nanovehicles, to facilitate targeting and crossing of the biological barriers. In light of this, we discuss future solutions and challenges for DNA nanovehicles to unravel their great potential to facilitate targeted drug delivery.

Abstract
A rationally designed new class of DNA-based nanoswitches allosterically regulated by specific biological targets, antibodies and transcription factors, can load and release a molecular cargo in a controlled fashion.
Here we demonstrate the rational design of a new class of DNA-based nanoswitches which are allosterically regulated by specific biological targets, antibodies and transcription factors, and are able to load and release a molecular cargo (i.e. doxorubicin) in a controlled fashion. In our first model system we rationally designed a stem-loop DNA-nanoswitch that adopts two mutually exclusive conformations: a “Load” conformation containing a doxorubicin-intercalating domain and a “Release” conformation containing a duplex portion recognized by a specific transcription-factor (here Tata Binding Protein). The binding of the transcription factor pushes this conformational equilibrium towards the “Release” state thus leading to doxorubicin release from the nanoswitch. In our second model system we designed a similar stem-loop DNA-nanoswitch for which conformational change and subsequent doxorubicin release can be triggered by a specific antibody. Our approach augments the current tool kit of smart drug release mechanisms regulated by different biological inputs.

Abstract
Besides being the carrier of genetic information, DNA is also an excellent biological organizer to establish well-designed nanostructures in the fields of material engineering, nanotechnology, and biomedicine. DNA-based materials represent a diverse nanoscale system primarily due to their predictable base pairing and highly regulated conformations, which greatly facilitate the construction of DNA nanostructures with distinct shapes and sizes. Integrating the emerging advancements in bioconjugation techniques, DNA nanostructures can be readily functionalized with high precision for many purposes ranging from biosensors to imaging to drug delivery. Recent progress in the field of DNA nanotechnology has exhibited collective efforts to employ DNA nanostructures as smart imaging agents or delivery platforms within living organisms. Despite significant improvements in the development of DNA nanostructures, there is limited knowledge regarding the in vivo biological fate of these intriguing nanomaterials. In this review, we summarize the current strategies for designing and purifying highly-versatile DNA nanostructures for biological applications, including molecular imaging and drug delivery. Since DNA nanostructures may elicit an immune response in vivo, we also present a short discussion of their potential toxicities in biomedical applications. Lastly, we discuss future perspectives and potential challenges that may limit the effective preclinical and clinical employment of DNA nanostructures. Due to their unique properties, we predict that DNA nanomaterials will make excellent agents for effective diagnostic imaging and drug delivery, improving patient outcome in cancer and other related diseases in the near future.

Abstract
DNA origami is a DNA-based nanotechnology that utilizes programmed combinations of short complementary oligonucleotides to fold a large single strand of DNA into precise 2D and 3D shapes. The exquisite nanoscale shape control of this inherently biocompatible material is combined with the potential to spatially address the origami structures with diverse cargoes including drugs, antibodies, nucleic acid sequences, small molecules, and inorganic particles. This programmable flexibility enables the fabrication of precise nanoscale devices that have already shown great potential for biomedical applications such as: drug delivery, biosensing, and synthetic nanopore formation. Here, the advances in the DNA-origami field since its inception several years ago are reviewed with a focus on how these DNA-nanodevices can be designed to interact with cells to direct or probe their behavior.

Abstract
A major problem in cancer treatment is the multidrug resistance. siRNA inhibitors have great advantages to solve the problem, if the bottleneck of their delivery could be well addressed by the various nanocarriers. Moreover, co-delivery of siRNA together with the various anticancer agents in one nanocarrier may maximize their additive or synergistic effect. This review provides a comprehensive summary on the state-of-the-art of the nanocarriers, which may include prodrugs, micelles, liposomes, dendrimers, nanohydrogels, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanoparticles of biodegradable polymers and nucleic acid nanocarriers for delivery of siRNA and co-delivery of siRNA together with anticancer agents with focus on synthesis of the nanocarrier materials, design and characterization, in vitro and in vivo evaluation, and prospect and challenges of nanocarriers.

Abstract
DNA origami provides rapid access to easily functionalized, nanometer-sized structures making it an intriguing platform for the development of defined drug delivery and sensor systems. Low cellular uptake of DNA nanostructures is a major obstacle in the development of DNA-based delivery platforms. Herein, significant strong increase in cellular uptake in an established cancer cell line by modifying a planar DNA origami structure with the iron transport protein transferrin (Tf) is demonstrated. A variable number of Tf molecules are coupled to the origami structure using a DNA-directed, site-selective labeling technique to retain ligand functionality. A combination of confocal fluorescence microscopy and quantitative (qPCR) techniques shows up to 22-fold increased cytoplasmic uptake compared to unmodified structures and with an efficiency that correlates to the number of transferrin molecules on the origami surface.

Abstract
DNA nanotechnology is an emerging and exciting field, and represents a forefront frontier for the biomedical field. The specificity of the interactions between complementary base pairs makes DNA an incredible building material for programmable and very versatile two- and three-dimensional nanostructures called DNA origami. Here, we analyze the DNA origami and DNA-based nanostructures as a drug delivery system. Besides their physical-chemical nature, we dissect the critical factors such as stability, loading capability, release and immunocompatibility, which mainly limit in vivo applications. Special attention was dedicated to highlighting the boundaries to be overcome to bring DNA nanostructures closer to the bedside of patients.

Abstract
We have demonstrated that mussel-inspired polydopamine can serve as an intermediate coating layer for covalently attaching oligonucleotides on nanostructures of diverse chemical nature, which are made possible by the universal adhesion and spontaneous reactivity of polydopamine. Our results have shown that polydopamine can strongly bond to representative nanoparticles (i.e., Au nanoparticles and magnetic polymer nanobeads) and form a thin layer of coating that allows for attachment of commercially available DNA with thiol or amine end functionality. The resulting DNA-nanoparticle conjugates not only show excellent chemical and thermal stability and high loading density of DNA, but the linked DNA also maintain their biological functions in directing cancer cell targeting and undergo DNA hybridization to form multifunctional magnetic core-plasmonic satellite assemblies. The generally applicable strategy opens new opportunities for easy adoption of DNA-nanoparticle conjugates for broad applications in biosensors and nanomedicine.

Reversible Regulation of Catalytic Activity of Gold Nanoparticles with DNA Nanomachines. Sci Rep 2015; 5:14402.

Abstract
Reversible catalysis regulation has gained much attention and traditional strategies utilized reversible ligand coordination for switching catalyst's conformations. However, it remains challenging to regulate the catalytic activity of metal nanoparticle-based catalysts. Herein, we report a new DNA nanomachine-driven reversible nano-shield strategy for circumventing this problem. The basic idea is based on the fact that the conformational change of surface-attached DNA nanomachines will cause the variation of the exposed surface active area on metal nanoparticles. As a proof-of-concept study, we immobilized G-rich DNA strands on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) which have glucose oxidase (GOx) like activity. Through the reversible conformational change of the G-rich DNA between a flexible single-stranded form and a compact G-quadruplex form, the catalytic activity of AuNPs has been regulated reversibly for several cycles. This strategy is reliable and robust, which demonstrated the possibility of reversibly adjusting catalytic activity with external surface coverage switching, rather than coordination interactions.
