Abstract
Bringing together photothermal therapy and chemotherapy (photothermal-chemotherapy, PT-CT) is a highly promising clinical approach but requires the development of intelligent multifunctional delivery vectors. In this work, we prepared mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs) loaded with the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX). These NPs were then coated with the platelet membrane (PLTM). The coated MPDA NPs are spherical and clearly mesoporous in structure. They have a particle size of approximately 184 nm and pore size of ca. 45 nm. The NPs are potent photothermal agents and efficient DOX carriers, with increased rates of drug release observed in vitro in conditions representative of the tumor microenvironment. The NPs are preferentially taken up by cancer cells but not by macrophage cells, and while cytocompatible with healthy cells are highly toxic to cancer cells. An in vivo murine model of human breast cancer revealed that the NPs can markedly slow the growth of a tumor (ca. 9-fold smaller after 14 days' treatment), have extended pharmacokinetics compared to free DOX (with DOX still detectable in the bloodstream after 24 h when the NPs are applied), and are highly targeted with minimal off-site effects on the heart, liver, spleen, kidney, and lungs.

Abstract
This research proposes the one-pot preparation of polydopamine (PDA) decorated mesoporoussilica nanoparticle (PMSN) for the thermal and tumor micro-environment (TME) responsive colorectal tumor therapy. The pores of PMSN were used for the Fe3+ loading. Lauric acid (LA), a phase-change ligand, was selected as a "doorkeeper" to coat the surface of Fe3+-loaded PMSN and prevent the undesired leakage of Fe3+. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was selected as a stabilizer to endow the PMSN-Fe-LA-BSA nanopartilces (PMFLB) with colloidal stability. Under the near infrared laser, the light-sensitive PDA produced significant heat to kill the colorectal cancer cells via hyperthermia. Moreover, the heat induced the phase-change of LA and triggered the release of Fe3+, which further reacted with the endogenous H2S in the colorectal TME. After that, the Fe3+ was transformed into Fe2+, which triggered the Fenton reaction with the H2O2 in the TME and effectively generated hydroxyl radical (·OH). Finally, the Fe2+ was transformed into Fe3+, which repeatedly reacted with the H2S and produced more ·OH to enhance the chemodynamic therapy of colorectal tumor. Such a thermosensitive PMFLB which operates in synergy with the colorectal TME opens an alternative avenue for the rational design of multifunctional nano-therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Mitochondria, a kind of subcellular organelle, play crucial roles in cancer cells as an energy source and as a generator of reactive substrates, which concern the generation, proliferation, drug resistance, and other functions of cancer. Therefore, precise delivery of anticancer agents to mitochondria can be a novel strategy for enhanced cancer treatment. Mitochondria have a four-layer structure with a high negative potential, which thereby prevents many molecules from reaching the mitochondria. Luckily, the advances in nanosystems have provided enormous hope to overcome this challenge. These nanosystems include liposomes, nanoparticles, and nanomicelles. Here, we summarize the very latest developments in mitochondria-targeting nanomedicines in cancer treatment as well as focus on designing multifunctional mitochondria-targeting nanosystems based on the latest nanotechnology.

Abstract
Transmembrane MUC18 is highly expressed on most metastatic cancers. Herein, we demonstrate that targeting MUC18 with polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) and a mild photothermal effect can completely cease the migration of melanoma and breast cancer cells without killing the cells. The inhibited cell migration can be attributed to the altered actin cytoskeleton, cell stiffness, and cell morphology, as revealed by nanomechanical and super resolution fluorescence imaging techniques. Further mechanistic studies at the molecular level show that MUC18 targeted PDA NPs and a mild photothermal treatment produce a synergistic effect on the actin cytoskeleton by downregulating the transmembrane MUC18 and interrupting ezrin-radixin-moesin phosphorylation, thereby releasing the actin cytoskeleton from the cell membrane and compromising force transduction through the actin cytoskeleton to the transmembrane MUC18. Overall, the concept of targeting transmembrane metastatic markers and disrupting their downstream effectors (i.e., actin and actin-binding proteins) opens up a new avenue to cancer therapy.

Abstract
Transcatheter arterial embolization has been considered as a promising targeted delivery approach for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Currently, chemoembolization was the main treatment for unresectable HCC. However, the traditional chemoembolization treatment suffers from undesirable therapeutic effects and serious side-effects. In this study, the doxorubicin (DOX)-encapsulated and near-infrared (NIR)-responsible copper sulfide (CuS)-based nanotherapeutics was developed for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided chemo-photothermal therapy of HCC tumor in rats. The DOX-loaded CuS nanocomposites (DOX@BSA-CuS) demonstrated distinct NIR-triggered drug release behavior and high photothermal effect. In an orthotopic HCC rat model, DOX@BSA-CuS nanocomposites were selectively delivered to the tumor site via the intra-arterial transcatheter. The proposed DOX@BSA-CuS nanocomposites plus NIR laser irradiation exhibited significant tumor growth suppression performance. Moreover, the treatment progress can be monitored by MRI images. Finally, the preliminary toxicity estimate suggested the negligible side-effect of DOX@BSA-CuS nanocomposites during the therapeutic process. These results suggest the clinical translational potential possibility for imaging-guided arterial embolization with DOX@BSA-CuS nanocomposites for the treatment of HCC.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as a promising cancer therapeutic method. In this study, Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptide-conjugated polydopamine-coated gold nanostars (Au@PDA-RGD NPs) were prepared for targeting PTT of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A polydopamine (PDA) shell was coated on the surface of gold nanostars by the oxidative self-polymerization of dopamine (termed as Au@PDA NPs). Au@PDA NPs were further functionalized with polyethylene glycol and RGD peptide to improve biocompatibility as well as selectivity toward the HCC cells. Au@PDA-RGD NPs showed an intense absorption at 822 nm, which makes them suitable for near-infrared-excited PTT. Our results indicated that the Au@PDA-RGD NPs were effective for the PTT therapy of the αVβ3 integrin receptor-overexpressed HepG2 cells in vitro. Further antitumor mechanism studies showed that the Au@PDA-RGD NPs-based PTT induced human liver cancer cells death via the mitochondrial–lysosomal and autophagy pathways. In vivo experiments showed that Au@PDA-RGD NPs had excellent tumor treatment efficiency and negligible side effects. Thus, our study showed that Au@PDA-RGD NPs could offer an excellent nanoplatform for PTT of HCC.

Abstract
The lack of cancer cell specificity and the occurrence of multidrug resistance (MDR) are two major obstacles in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). To tackle these challenges, a novel nanoparticle (NP)-based drug delivery system (DDS) with a core/shell structure consisted of d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS)-galactose (Gal)/polydopamine (PDA) is fabricated. The NP is loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) and a nitric oxide (NO) donor N,N'-di-sec-butyl-N,N'-dinitroso-1,4-phenylenediamine (BNN) sensitive to heat to afford NO-DOX@PDA-TPGS-Gal. The unique binding of Gal to asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) and the pH-sensitive degradation of NP ensure the targeted transportation of NP into liver cells and the release of DOX in HCC cells. The near-infrared (NIR) light further facilitates DOX release and initiates NO generation from BNN due to the photothermal property of PDA. In addition to the cytotoxicity contributed by DOX, NO, and heat, TPGS and NO act as MDR reversal agents to inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-related efflux of DOX by HepG2/ADR cells. The combined chemo-photothermal therapy (chemo-PTT) by NO-DOX@PDA-TPGS-Gal thus shows potent anti-cancer activity against drug-resistant HCC cells in vitro and in vivo and significantly prolongs the life span of drug-resistant tumor-bearing mice. The present work provides a useful strategy for highly targeted and MDR reversal treatment of HCC.

Abstract
The hydrophobicity of ultrafiltration membranes is the main cause of membrane fouling and reduced permeability, so it is necessary to improve the hydrophilicity and anti-fouling performance of ultrafiltration membrane materials. MoS2 nanoparticles that were modified with polydopamine (PDA) and polyethyleneimine (PEI), named MoS2-PDA-PEI, were added to fabricate a polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membrane (PES/MoS2-PDA-PEI) for the first time. The effects of modified MoS2 nanoparticles on membrane performance were clarified. The results indicated that the permeability, rejection, and anti-fouling capability of the hybrid PES/MoS2-PDA-PEI membrane have been improved compared with the pristine PES membrane. When the content of MoS2-PDA-PEI nanoparticles in the membrane is 0.5%, the pure water flux of the hybrid membrane reaches 364.03 L m−2 h−1, and the rejection rate of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and humic acid (HA) is 96.5% and 93.2% respectively. The flux recovery rate of HA reached 97.06%. As expected, the addition of MoS2-PDA-PEI nanoparticles promotes the formation of the porous structure and improves the hydrophilicity of the membrane, thereby improving its antifouling performance. The hydrophobicity of ultrafiltration membranes is the main cause of membrane fouling and reduced permeability, so it is necessary to improve the hydrophilicity and anti-fouling performance of ultrafiltration membrane materials.![]()

Abstract
Multifunctional nanocomposites have drawn great attention in clinical applications because of their ability to integrate diagnostic and therapeutic functions. Manganese dioxide (MnO2), owing to its biocompatibility and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) properties, has been widely applied in biomedical research. Our previous work on biogenic MnO2 nanoparticles (Bio-MnO2 NPs) revealed that intrinsic photothermal properties and stimuli-responsive MRI imaging are particularly promising for the development of theranostic systems. However, further improvement in the photothermal therapy (PTT) performance of Bio-MnO2 NPs is still required. Herein, we have improved the PTT efficiency of Bio-MnO2 NPs by in situ synthesis of fluorescent polydopamine (PDA) while generating additional stimuli responsive fluorescence properties in this system, thus further broadening the scope of their theranostic functions. These synthesis conditions are mild and green. The fluorescence of PDA was quenched by capping Bio-MnO2 NPs and could be recovered upon degradation of Bio-MnO2 NPs inside tumour cells. Additionally, Mn2+ released from the nanoparticles can support T1-weighted MR imaging. Compared to the Bio-MnO2 NPs alone, the integration of Bio-MnO2 NPs and PDA significantly enhances the photothermal performance in vitro and in vivo. With their high biocompatibility, these multifunctional composite nanodevices hold great potential for fluorescence imaging and MRI-guided photothermal therapy.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is a branch of science dealing with the development of new types of nanomaterials by several methods. In the biomedical field, nanotechnology is widely used in the form of nanotherapeutics. Therefore, the current biomedical research pays much attention to nanotechnology for the development of efficient cancer treatment. Indocyanine green (ICG) is a near-infrared tricarbocyanine dye approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for human clinical use. ICG is a biologically safe photosensitizer and it can kill tumor cells by producing singlet oxygen species and photothermal heat upon NIR irradiation. ICG has some limitations such as easy aggregation, rapid aqueous degradation, and a short half-life. To address these limitations, ICG is further formulated with nanoparticles. Therefore, ICG is integrated with organic nanomaterials (polymers, micelles, liposomes, dendrimers and protein), inorganic nanomaterials (magnetic, gold, mesoporous, calcium, and LDH based), and hybrid nanomaterials. The combination of ICG with nanomaterials provides highly efficient therapeutic effects. Nowadays, ICG is used for various biomedical applications, especially in cancer therapeutics. In this review, we mainly focus on ICG-based combined cancer nanotherapeutics for advanced cancer treatment.

Abstract
Polyphenols, the phenolic hydroxyl group-containing organic molecules, are widely found in natural plants and have shown beneficial effects on human health. Recently, polyphenol-containing nanoparticles have attracted extensive research attention due to their antioxidation property, anticancer activity, and universal adherent affinity, and thus have shown great promise in the preparation, stabilization, and modification of multifunctional nanoassemblies for bioimaging, therapeutic delivery, and other biomedical applications. Additionally, the metal-polyphenol networks, formed by the coordination interactions between polyphenols and metal ions, have been used to prepare an important class of polyphenol-containing nanoparticles for surface modification, bioimaging, drug delivery, and disease treatments. By focusing on the interactions between polyphenols and different materials (e.g., metal ions, inorganic materials, polymers, proteins, and nucleic acids), a comprehensive review on the synthesis and properties of the polyphenol-containing nanoparticles is provided. Moreover, the remarkable versatility of polyphenol-containing nanoparticles in different biomedical applications, including biodetection, multimodal bioimaging, protein and gene delivery, bone repair, antibiosis, and cancer theranostics is also demonstrated. Finally, the challenges faced by future research regarding the polyphenol-containing nanoparticles are discussed.

Abstract
Highly oriented, layered, and mechanically resilient films of polydopamine (PDA) have been synthesized from the air/water interface. The films show a unique layered structure, as shown by scanning and transmission electron studies (SEM/TEM) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), which resemble that of 2D layered materials. The films exhibit a composition typical of PDA-based materials, as evidenced by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS); moreover, the samples present the distinctive resonance modes of PDA-based nanomaterials in Raman and infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) experiments. The presence of highly ordinated 3-4 protomolecule stacking, taking place at the air/water interface, with a unique eumelanin-like supramolecular arrangement is presented. Moreover, the films show superior mechanical resilience with E = 13 ± 4 GPa and H = 0.21 ± 0.03 GPa, as revealed by nanoindentation experiments, making them highly resilient and easily transferable. Finally, the ordering induced by the interface opens many possibilities for further studies, including those regarding the supramolecular structure on PDA due to their similarity to 2D layered materials.

Abstract
There is a growing demand to develop sprayable hydrogel adhesives with rapid-forming and antibacterial abilities to instantly seal open wounds and combat pathogen infection. Herein, we propose to design a polydopamine nanoparticle (PDA NP) coupled PEG hydrogel that can quickly solidify via an amidation reaction after spraying as well as tightly binding PDA NPs to deliver reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induce a photothermal effect for bactericidal activity, and provide a hydrophilic surface for antifouling activity. The molecular structure of the 4-arm-PEG-NHS precursor was regulated to increase its reactivity with 4-arm-PEG-NH2, which thus shortened the gelation time of the PEG adhesive to 1 s to allow a fast solidification after being sprayed. The PEG-NHS precursor also provided covalent binding with tissue and PDA NPs. The reduced PDA NPs have redox activity to convey electrons to oxygen to generate ROS (H2O2), thus endowing the hydrogel with ROS dependent antibacterial ability. Moreover, NIR irradiation can accelerate the ROS release because of the photothermal effect of PDA NPs. In vitro tests demonstrated that H2O2 and the NIR-photothermal effect synergistically induced a fast bacterial killing, and an in vivo anti-infection test also proved the effectiveness of PEG-PDA. The sprayable PEG-PDA hydrogel adhesive, with rapid-forming performance and a dual bactericidal mechanism, may be promising for sealing large-scale and acute wound sites or invisible bleeding sites, and protect them from pathogen infection.

Abstract
It is of great significance to develop multifunctional gene carriers to achieve treatments with enhanced therapeutic effects in an inflammation-free manner. In this work, assembled micelles of polysaccharide were utilized for the biomineralization of calcium carbonate to produce one-dimensional Alg-CaCO3 nanoparticles. In order to introduce both functions of mild hyperthermia and gene transfection, polydopamine (PDA) coating was applied to conjugate cationic polymers on the surface of nanoparticles. The resultant ACDP nanohybrids exhibited enhanced performance as gene carriers under near infrared (NIR) light irradiation at a low power density. Meanwhile, the pH-responsive degradation of gene carriers could further promote gene release for better effectiveness. The enhanced gene therapy induces tumor cell apoptosis, which could prevent inflammatory responses. The feasibility of mild hyperthermia-enhanced gene therapy for tumor treatment was investigated in vitro and in vivo. In addition, dual-modal ultrasound (US) and photoacoustic (PA) imaging was also realized to monitor and guide the treatment processes. The current work provides a new avenue for the construction of multifunctional platform to realize cancer therapy with improved therapeutic effectiveness in an inflammation-free manner.

Abstract
To improve the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer agents and extend their application, mussel-inspired chemical modifications have attracted considerable attention. Surface modification based on polydopamine (PDA) has been a facile and versatile method to immobilize biomolecules on substrates for targeted drug delivery. To better analyze pharmaceutical differences between PDA-based surface modification and traditional synthesis methods, we prepared two kinds of folate (FA)-targeted nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with paclitaxel (PTX). The resultant PTX-PDA-FA NPs and PTX-FA NPs represented PDA and synthesis strategies, respectively. PTX-PDA-FA NPs and PTX-FA NPs have been characterized. The particle size of PTX-PDA-FA NPs was smaller than that of PTX-FA NPs. The two kinds of NPs both exhibited long-rod morphology, good colloidal stability and sustained slow drug release. Cytotoxicityin vitrowas evaluated, and antitumor efficacy was investigated against 4T1 tumor-bearing mice. The tumor targeting therapeutic index of PTX-PDA-FA NPs and PTX-FA NPs showed equivalent superior specificity compared to nontargeted groups, which indicated that FA successfully attached to the surface of NPs by the PDA method and that the antitumor effect was equivalent to that of FA-modified NPs prepared by the chemical synthesis method. These results further indicated that PDA, as a simple and effective chemical surface modification platform, could be developed and applied in targeted delivery systems.

Abstract
The translation of mussel-inspired wet adhesion to biomedical engineering fields have catalyzed the emergence of polydopamine (PDA)-based nanomaterials with privileged features and properties of conducting multiple interfacial interactions. Recent concerns and progress on the understanding of PDA's hierarchical structure and progressive assembly are inspiring approaches toward novel nanostructures with property and function advantages over simple nanoparticle architectures. Major breakthroughs in this field demonstrated the essential role of π-π stacking and π-cation interactions in the rational intervention of PDA self-assembly. In this review, the recently emerging concepts in the preparation and application of PDA nanomaterials, including 3D mesostructures, low-dimensional nanostructures, micelle/nanoemulsion based nanoclusters, as well as other multicomponent nanohybrids by the segregation and organization of PDA building blocks on nanoscale interfaces are outlined. The contribution of π-electron interactions on the interfacial loading/release of π electron-rich molecules (nucleic acids, drugs, photosensitizers) and the exogenous coupling of optical energy, as well as the impact of wet-adhesion interactions on the nano-bio interface interplay, are highlighted by discussing the structure-property relationships in their featured applications including fluorescent biosensing, gene therapy, drug delivery, phototherapy, combined therapy, etc. The limitations of current explorations, and future research directions are also discussed.

Abstract
Various polydopamine (PDA) nanospheres were synthesized by utilizing triblock copolymer Pluronic F127 and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene (TMB) as soft templates. Precise morphology control of polydopamine nanospheres was realized from solid polydopamine nanospheres to hollow polydopamine nanospheres, mesoporous polydopamine nanospheres and hollow mesoporous polydopamine nanospheres (H-MPDANSs) by adjusting the weight ratio of TMB to F127. The inner diameter of the prepared H-MPDANSs can be controlled in the range of 50-100 nm, and the outer diameter is about 180 nm. Furthermore, the thickness of hollow mesoporous spherical shell can be adjusted by changing the amount of dopamine (DA). The H-MPDANSs have good biocompatibility, excellent photothermal properties, high drug loading capacity, and outstanding sustainable drug release properties. In addition, both NIR laser irradiation and acid pH can facilitate the controlled release of doxorubicin (DOX) from H-MPDANSs@DOX.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) induced by the overexpression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transporters mainly leads to chemotherapy (CT) failure. Herein, a NIR/pH dual-sensitive charge-reversal polypeptide nanocomposite (PDA-PLC) was developed for co-delivering a nitric oxide (NO) donor and doxorubicin (DOX). Under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, the released high-concentration of NO gas inhibited the P-gp expression to sensitize the chemotherapeutic medicine DOX and assisted photothermal therapy (PTT) to eradicate cancer cells without skin scarring. Further, the distinctive charge-reversal capacity of PDA-PLC significantly facilitated cellular uptake in the tumor acidic microenvironment (pH 6.8) and enhanced its stability in the physiological environment (pH 7.4). This DOX-loading polypeptide nanocomposite (PDA-PLC/DOX) provides an effective strategy for the PTT-NO-CT triple-combination therapy to overcome MDR STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Multidrug resistance (MDR) has been considered to be the paramount factor of chemotherapy (CT) failure in cancer. In this work, an NIR/pH dual-sensitive charge-reversal polypeptide nanomedicine (PDA-PLC/DOX) was developed to overcome MDR through the triple combination therapy of photothermal therapy (PTT), NO gas therapy, and CT. The distinctive charge-reversal capacity of PDA-PLC/DOX significantly facilitated cellular uptake in the tumor acidic microenvironment (pH 6.8) and enhanced its stability in the physiological environment (pH 7.4), while the NIR trigger-released NO gas greatly inhibited the expression of P-gp and synergistically enhanced PTT and CT efficacy. This polypeptide nanocomposite PDA-PLC/DOX provides an effective strategy of using the PTT-NO-CT triple combination therapy with charge-reversal property to completely eradicate the MCF-7/ADR tumor.

Abstract
A hierarchical multichannel polydopamine (HMPDA) nanoparticle with ample chondroitin sulfate (CS) is fabricated via modification of the silane coupling agent (APTES), followed by grafting CS on the unique bicontinuous open channels of HMPDA through amidation reaction. The obtained nanoparticles with both mesopores and macropores, abbreviated as HMPDA-A-CS15, possess a total pore volume of 0.3398 cm3 g-1, and a large surface area up to 69.10 m2 g-1. The as-prepared HMPDA-A-CS15 exhibits significantly enhanced selectivity for the separation of LDL, which is attributed to the specific recognition effect of CS for LDL. Furthermore, the unique large open channels endow the HMPDA-A-CS15 nanoparticles with a gratifying sorption capacity (1015.2 mg g-1) for LDL adsorption. The captured LDL can be stripped using 0.5% (v/v) ammonia solution with the advantage of easy atomization in downstream mass spectrometry (MS) analyses, and a recovery of 71.7% is achieved. Moreover, HMPDA-A-CS15 is further employed in the enrichment of LDL, which can be separated from the complex serum of simulated hypercholesterolemia patients with a favorable adsorption performance, as illustrated by the SDS-PAGE technique.

Abstract
Commonly known as a skin pigment, melanin has a vital role in UV radiation protection, primarily acting as a radical scavenger. However, a lesser known natural property of melanin, observed in some melanized organisms, is its capacity to adsorb toxins, including metals and organic molecules. Inspired by this, we set out to generate a synthetic porous melanin that would pave the way to enhancing the natural adsorbent properties of melanin and melanin-like materials. Here, we developed a method for the synthesis of porous polydopamine-based melanin utilizing a mesoporous silica (MS) nanoparticle template and characterized its physical properties. Through the oxidative polymerization of dopamine, followed by the etching of silica, we generated synthetic porous melanin (SPM) with the highest measured surface area of any known polydopamine-based material. The prepared SPM was effective for the uptake of various gases and organophosphate toxins, with the material exhibiting high selectivity for CO2 over CH4 and high potential for ammonia capture. Given the demonstrated advantages provided by synthetic porous melanin and melanin's role as an adsorbent in nature, we anticipate the discovery of porous analogues in biological systems.

Abstract
Combined therapy system has become an efficient strategy to overcome drug resistance and strengthen therapeutic effects. Herein, an efficient NIR-/pH-triggered dual-drug-loaded nanoplatform was designed for combined chemo-photothermal therapy. The hydrophobic anticancer drug bortezomib (BTZ) was first loaded in mesoporous polydopamine nanospheres (MPDAs) through the acid-sensitive borate ester bond. Afterward, pH-responsive carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) conjugated on the surface of MPDA could capture another anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) and exhibited controlled release behavior in an acidic tumor microenvironment. Meanwhile, under NIR laser irradiation, hyperthermia produced by the photothermal conversion agent MPDA could efficiently ablate cancer cells and further promote drug release. In vitro and in vivo experiments emphasized that the synthesized MPDA-BTZ@CMCS-DOX nanostructure exhibited efficient accumulation in the tumor site, resulting in sustained release of BTZ and DOX and realizing NIR-/pH-triggered chemotherapy and photothermal synergistic ablation of cancer.

Abstract
Immunotherapy has shown great potential in cancer therapeutics but has limitations of the insufficient activation of dendritic cells (DCs) and immune-suppressive microenvironment. To overcome these obstacles, a cascade synergistic immunotherapy nanosystem (denoted as CpG@PDA-FA) was designed to elevate anticancer immune response. The combination nanosystem including a photothermal agent polydopamine (PDA) and immunomodulator CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG ODNs). On the one hand, polydopamine (PDA) acts as a photothermal agent to induce low-temperature PTT. It leads to immunogenic cell death (ICD), a programmed cell death pathway, which can activate DCs and enhance the antitumor immune response of T cells. On the other hand, CpG ODNs further promote maturation and migration of DCs as well as ameliorates the immunosuppression microenvironment of the tumor (TME). This paper focuses on a cancer synergistic treatment of ICD-induced immunotherapy by low-temperature PTT and ameliorates TME by immunomodulator CpG ODNs. We proved that CpG@PDA-FA NPs realized a remarkable synergistic treatment effect compared with respective single PTT or CpG therapy in the maturation of DCs and activation of T cells. In addition, CpG@PDA-FA NPs also reduced myeloid-derived suppressor cells and regulatory T cells to relieve immunosuppression. Hence, CpG@PDA-FA NPs provide a bidirectional immunotherapy strategy for tumor inhibition and highlight the cascade effects of low-temperature PTT and immunotherapy.

Abstract
Photo-chemotherapy presents promising therapeutic effects in cancer treatment. Photo-thermal and chemotherapeutic agents are generally delivered independently or jointly by drug carriers, such as polymer micelles. A polymer micelle is one type of widely researched drug carrier. However, there is a disassembly risk for polymer micelles under excessive dilution in blood circulation, leading to the premature release of payloads from the micelles and finally resulting in undesirable toxic side effects. Herein, amino-PEG decorated copper sulfide nanoparticles (CuS NPs) with photothermal effect were applied as a cross-linker to enhance polymeric micelles' stability and to provide photothermal therapy in the meanwhile. The micelles were prepared using a pH/reductive responsive polymer, poly(ε-caprolactone)-ss-poly(2-(diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate/glycidyl methacrylate/2-methylacrylloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (PCL-SS-P(DPA/GMA/MP)), abbreviated as DGM. Cross-linked micelles (DGM-CuS) exhibited high photothermal transformation efficiency and excellent stability against dilution, as well as pH and redox responsive drug release. Under near-infrared laser irradiation, the cell cytotoxicity of doxorubicin-loaded micelles DGM-CuS@DOX and DGM-CuS@DOX-P (DGM-CuS@DOX modified by peptides) increased by 17.1 times and 69.2 times correspondingly compared to that without laser irradiation. All of the solid 4T1 tumors disappeared, and tumor metastases were merely observed in the major organs of the tumor-bearing mice after administration of DGM-CuS@DOX and DGM-CuS@DOX-P with irradiation. In this synergistic therapy system, CuS NPs play double roles of a photothermal agent and a micelle cross-linker. The strategy of utilizing nanoparticles as cross-linkers is newly reported, which offers new insight for combination therapy.

Abstract
New nano-reagents with diagnostic imaging and therapeutic functions are very important for precision medicine against cancer. In this work, a new nanotheraontic agent for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided combined photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemotherapy was constructed based on polydopamine (PDA) functionalized copper ferrite nanospheres (PDA@CFNs). The high relaxivity makes it possible for PDA@CFNs to become a promising MRI contrast agent, providing necessary and exhaustive information for tumor diagnosis. In addition, because both CFNs and PDA have strong near-infrared (NIR) absorption, PDA@CFNs exhibit excellent photothermal performance. Highly effective tumor ablation is achieved in a mouse model through PTT and pH/NIR triggered on-demand chemotherapy. These findings reveal that constructing smart pH/NIR responsive multifunctional theranostic agents is a feasible strategy for precision cancer therapy.

Abstract
Herein, we simply synthesized intrinsic fluorescent polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) in sodium hydroxide solution (NaOH, pH 11), and constructed a new fluorescence nanoplatform for the detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) using PDA NPs as an effective signal reporter. The nanoplatform was constructed by the combination of enzymatic hydrolysis of ALP to the substrate l-ascorbic acid-2-phosphate (AA2P) and the chemical redox reaction between l-ascorbic acid (AA) and mercury ion (Hg2+). The fluorescence of PDA NPs could be effectively quenched by Hg2+ through the coordination effect between Hg2+ and the functional groups on the surface of PDA NPs. However, the quenching effect was greatly inhibited by the addition of AA into the solution. Based on this point, the activity of ALP could be monitored by hydrolysis of the substrate AA2P to AA and the fluorescence output of PDA NPs. The nanoplatform exhibited high sensitivity and desirable selectivity for ALP detection. With a wide linear range of 0 to 18 U L-1, a detection limit of 0.4 U L-1 was achieved using the developed nanosensor. The proposed method could not only be used to screen the inhibitor of ALP but also be used to detect ALP activity in human serum samples successfully. Moreover, the strategy can easily be expanded to determining other kinds of enzymes participating in AA-generation reactions.

Abstract
The second near infrared photoacoustic imaging (NIR-II PAI) and photothermal therapy (NIR-II PTT) have attracted wide interest in cancer theranostics because of maximum permission exposure (MPE), deep penetration, and lower scattering and background noise compared to NIR-I counterparts; however, it is imperative to develop biocompatible nanomaterials having NIR-II response. By utilizing multivalent Au-S coordination bonds, we constructed a zwitterionic polypeptide nanocomposite of PMC@AuNP with a suitable size of 48 ± 2 nm, which possessed a strong and broad absorbance at 650-1100 nm and an excellent photothermal conversion efficiency of 49.5%. In vitro biological studies demonstrated that NIR-II PTT within MPE was more effective than NIR-I PTT beyond MPE. Along with X-ray computed tomography and photothermal imaging functions, PMC@AuNP in vivo presented unique NIR-I/II PAI with 2.6-5.9 times signal enhancement compared to the contrast. By single dose and NIR-II irradiation (1064 nm, 1 W cm-2, 10 min), NIR-II PTT within MPE completely eradicated MCF-7 tumors without tissue damage and tumor recurrence within 24 days, inducing a better antitumor efficacy than NIR-I PTT beyond MPE. Importantly, this study provides an innovative method for the fabrication of biocompatible zwitterionic polypeptide nanocomposites with unique NIR-I/II PAI and NIR-II PTT attributes, thus holding great potential for precise cancer theranostics and further clinical transitions.

Abstract
Living therapeutics approaches that exploit mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as nanomedicine carriers are highly attractive due to MSCs native tropism toward the 3D tumor microenvironment. However, a streamlined pre-clinical evaluation of nano-in-cell anti-cancer therapies remains limited by the lack of in vitro testing platforms for screening MSCs-3D microtumor interactions. Herein we generated dense breast cancer mono and heterotypic 3D micro-spheroids for evaluating MSCs-solid tumors interactions and screen advanced nano-in-MSCs therapies. Breast cancer monotypic and heterotypic models comprising cancer cells and cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) were self-assembled under controlled conditions using the liquid overlay technique. The resulting microtumors exhibited high compactness, reproducible morphology and necrotic regions, similarly to native solid tumors. For evaluating tumoritropic therapies in organotypic tumor-stroma 3D models, theranostic polydopamine nanoparticles loaded with indocyanine green-doxorubicin combinations (PDA-ICG-DOX) were synthesized and administered to human bone-marrow derived MSCs (hBM-MSCs). The dual-loaded PDA nano-platforms were efficiently internalized, exhibited highly efficient NIR-light responsivity and assured MSCs viability up to 3 days. The administration of PDA-ICG-DOX nano-in-MSC tumoritropic units to microtumor models was performed in ultra-low adhesion surfaces for simulating in vitro the stem cell-tumor interactions observed in the in vivo scenario. Bioimaging analysis revealed hBM-MSCs adhesion to 3D cancer cells mass and MSCs-chemo-photothermal nanotherapeutics exhibited higher anti-tumor potential when compared to their standalone chemotherapy treated 3D tumor counterparts. Overall, the proposed methodology is suitable for evaluating MSCs-microtumors individualized interactions and enables a rapid high-throughput screening of tumoritropic therapies bioperformance.

Abstract
The development of multifunctional nanoagents for the simultaneous achievement of high diagnostic and therapeutic performances is significant for precise cancer treatment. Herein, we report on a polydopamine (PDA)-based multifunctional nanoagent, PML, in which the methylene blue (MB) photosensitizer (PS) and l-arginine (l-Arg) tumor-targeting species are equipped. After selectively accumulating in tumor sites, glutathione (GSH)-responsive PML degradation can controllably release loaded MB to produce singlet oxygen (1O2) under near-infrared (NIR) photoirradiation. This GSH-depleted PS release process can not only weaken the body's antioxidant defence ability but also synergistically increase the 1O2 concentration. Therefore, GSH depletion-enhanced photodynamic therapy (PDT) efficiency is logically achieved by regulating the intracellular redox balance. In addition, our nanoagent can guide photoacoustic/NIR thermal dual-modal imaging and convert light into heat for cooperative cancer phototherapy because of the inherent photothermal conversion nature of PDA. As a result, excellent in vivo antitumor phototherapy (PDT + PTT) is achieved under the precise guidance of dual-modal imaging. This work not only realizes the integration of cancer diagnosis and treatment through PDA-based nanocarriers but also delivers dimensions in designing the next generation of multifunctional antitumor nanoagents for enhanced phototherapy and photodiagnosis by regulating the redox balance.

Abstract
Polydopamine nanoparticles (PD NPs) have been synthesized in the present work through the oxidative polymerization of dopamine in aqueous media containing five different types of alcohol in a constant solvent volume ratio. We have shown that the type of alcohol, along with the ammonium hydroxide concentration used in the synthesis process, conditions particle size. Additionally, it has been found that the type of alcohol employed influences the well-known capacity of polydopamine nanoparticles to adsorb iron. As a consequence, since a ferroptosis-like mechanism may account for the cytotoxicity of these nanoparticles, the type of alcohol could also have a determining role in their antineoplastic activity. Here, the existence of a correlation between the ability of polydopamine nanoparticles to load Fe3+ and their toxic effect on breast cancer cells has been proven. For instance, nanoparticles synthesized using 2-propanol adsorbed more Fe3+ and had the greatest capacity to reduce breast tumor cell viability. Moreover, none of the nanoparticle synthesized with the different alcohols significantly decreased normal cell survival. Cancer cells present greater iron-dependence than healthy cells and this fact may explain why polydopamine nanoparticles toxicity, in which Fenton chemistry could be implicated, seems tumor-specific.

Abstract
Black phosphorus-based nanomaterials (BPNMs), an emerging member of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, possess excellent physicochemical properties and hold great potential for application in advanced nanomedicines. However, the bare BPNMs easily decrease their biomedical activities due to their degradability and in vivo interactions with biological macromolecules such as plasma proteins, largely restricting their biomedical application. A variety of surface modifications, via chemical, physical or biological approaches, have been developed for BPNMs to avoid these limitations and achieve stable, long-lasting and safe therapeutic effects, thus enlighten the development of the multifunctional BPNMs for more practical application in the field of biomedicine. The present review summarizes the recent advances in the surface modification of BPNMs and the resultant expansion of their biomedical applications.

Abstract
Introduction Decellularized matrix from porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS) endows scaffolds with an ECM-like surface, which enhances stem cell self-renewal, proliferation, and differentiation. Mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) is extensively recognized as an excellent bio-ceramic for fabricating bone grafts. Materials and Methods In the current study, SIS was doped on an MBG scaffold (MBG/SIS) using polyurethane foam templating and polydopamine chemistry method. To mimic the bony environment of a natural bone matrix, an ECM-inspired delivery system was constructed by coupling the BMP2-related peptide P28 to a heparinized MBG/SIS scaffold (MBG/SIS-H-P28). The release of P28 from MBG/SIS-H-P28 and its effects on the proliferation, viability, and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal stem cells were investigated in vitro and in vivo. Results Our research indicated that the novel tissue-derived ECM scaffold MBG/SIS has a hierarchical and interconnected porous architecture, and superior biomechanical properties. MBG/SIS-H-P28 released P28 in a controlled manner, with the long-term release time of 40 d. The results of in vitro experiments showed improvements in cell proliferation, cell viability, alkaline phosphatase activity, and mRNA expression levels of osteogenesis-related genes (Runx-2, OCN, OPN, and ALP) compared to those of MBG/SIS or MBG/SIS-P28 and MBG/SIS-H-P28. The in vivo results demonstrated that MBG/SIS-H-P28 scaffolds evidently increased bone formation in rat calvarial critical-sized defect compared to that in controls. Conclusion MBG/SIS-H-P28 scaffolds show potential as ideal platforms for delivery of P28 and for providing a bony environment for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) has a wide range of applications in biomedicine due to its high biocompatibility and surface chemistry and because of the presence of many functional groups in it, enabling further modification. As a catechol-like material, it has chelation properties for various types of metal ions, including iron. Here, we developed a procedure that uses PDA as a template to grow iron structures β-FeOOH directly on its surface. The innovative approach of this work relies on that these structures can be obtained in neutral conditions and selective iron-ion source. The influence of iron-ion source, environment, and solution concentration on the structure and amount of resulting material is presented. The growth has been characterized over time, taking into account their photothermal, magnetic, and colloidal stability properties. Moreover, we shed new light on understanding the interaction of PDA with iron ions for the growth of iron-based nanostructure on polydopamine particles. Finally, we predict that PDA@β-FeOOH nanoparticles could be a promising material in dual therapy merging photothermal therapy (PTT) treatment and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents.

Abstract
Introduction We present a multimodal nanoplatforms for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in vitro. The nanoplatforms are based on polydopamine (PDA)-coated magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) and spheres (sMAG) with PAMAM dendrimers and functionalized with NHS-PEG-Mal (N-hydroxysuccinimide–polyethylene glycol–maleimide) linker, which allows their functionalization with a folic acid derivative. The nanomaterials bearing a folic acid-targeting moiety show high efficiency in killing cancer cells in the dual chemo- and photothermal therapy (CT-PTT) of the liver cancer cells in comparison to modalities performed separately. Materials and Methods All materials are characterized in detail with transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, zeta potential and magnetic measurements. Also, photothermal properties were determined under irradiation of nanoparticles with laser beam of 2 W/cm2. The nontoxicity of nanoparticles with doxorubicin and without was checked by WST and LIVE/DEAD assay. Those tests were also used to evaluate materials bearing folic acid and anticancer drug in combined chemo- and photothermal therapy of HCC. Further, the generation of reactive oxygen species profile was also evaluated using flow cytometry test. Results Both NPs and sMAG showed high photothermal properties. Nevertheless, the higher photothermal response was found for magnetic spheres. Materials of concentration above 10 µg/mL reveal that their activity was comparable to free doxorubicin. It is worth highlighting that a functionalized magnetic sphere with DOXO more strongly affected the HepG2 cells than smaller functionalized nanoparticles with DOXO in the performed chemotherapy. This can be attributed to the larger size of particles and a different method of drug distribution. In the further stage, both materials were assessed in combined chemo- and photothermal therapy (CT-PTT) which revealed that magnetic spheres were also more effective in this modality than smaller nanoparticles. Conclusion Here, we present two types of nanomaterials (nanoparticles and spheres) based on polydopamine and PAMAM dendrimers g.5.0 functionalized with NHS-PEG-Mal linker terminated with folic acid for in vitro hepatocellular carcinoma treatment. The obtained materials can serve as efficient agents for dual chemo- and photothermal therapy of HCC. We also proved that PDA-coated magnetic spheres were more efficient in therapies based on near-infrared irradiation because determined cell viabilities for those materials are lower than for the same concentrations of nanomaterials based on small magnetic nanoparticles.

Abstract
In the field of tissue engineering, there are several issues to consider when designing biomaterials for implants, including cellular interaction, good biocompatibility, and biochemical activity. Biomimetic mineralization has gained considerable attention as an emerging approach for the synthesis of biocompatible materials with complex shapes, categorized organization, controlled shape, and size in aqueous environments. Understanding biomineralization strategies could enhance opportunities for novel biomimetic mineralization approaches. In this regard, mussel-inspired biomaterials have recently attracted many researchers due to appealing features, such as strong adhesive properties on moist surfaces, improved cell adhesion, and immobilization of bioactive molecules via catechol chemistry. This molecular designed approach has been a key point in combining new functionalities into accessible biomaterials for biomedical applications. Polydopamine (PDA) has emerged as a promising material for biomaterial functionalization, considering its simple molecular structure, independence of target materials, cell interactions for adhesion, and robust reactivity for resulting functionalization. In this review, we highlight the strategies for using PDA to induce the biomineralization of hydroxyapatite (HA) on the surface of various implant materials with good mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. We also discuss the interactions between the PDA-HA coating, and several cell types that are intricate in many biomedical applications, involving bone defect repair, bone regeneration, cell attachment, and antibacterial activity.

Abstract
In the present work, we report on the modelling of processes at the zinc oxide and polydopamine (ZnO/PDA) interface. The PDA layer was deposited onto ZnO nanorods (NRs) via chemical bath deposition. The defect concentrations in ZnO before and after PDA deposition were calculated and analysed. The ZnONRs/PDA core–shell nanostructures were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL) measurements, and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The TEM and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) measurements confirmed the conformal coating of PDA, while the PL emission from ZnO and ZnONRs/PDA samples showed a reduction of intensity after the PDA deposition. The decrease of defect concentration participating in PL and quantum efficiency explains the PL reduction. Finally, the observed decrease of activation energies and a shift of the PL peaks are attributed to the formation of an additional local electrical field between the PDA and ZnO nanostructures. The results shown in this study provide a unique insight into the optical and electronic processes of the ZnO/PDA interface.![]()

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To prepare xanthatin (XA)-loaded polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles (PDA-XA-NPs) and to investigate their adhesion and bioavailability. MATERIALS AND METHODS PDA-XA-NPs were synthesized and characterized using transmission electron microscopy, zeta potential analysis and encapsulation efficiency analysis. Their in vitro release kinetics and inhibitory effects on gastric cancer were studied. The adhesion of PDA-XA-NPs was evaluated by in vivo imaging atlas. The pharmacokinetics of PDA-XA-NPs and XA was compared. RESULTS PDA-XA-NPs had a spherical shape, a particle size of about 380 nm, an encapsulation efficiency of (82.1 ± 0.02) % and a drug loading capacity of (5.5 ± 0.1)%. The release of PDA-XA-NPs in PBS was stable and slow, without being affected by pH. The adhesion capacity of PDA-XA-NPs for mucin was significantly higher than that of bulk drug. The gastric mucosal retention of PDA-XA-NPs reached 89.1% which significantly exceeded that of XA. In vivo imaging showed that PDA-XA-NPs targeting the stomach were retained for a period of time. The pharmacokinetics study showed that PDA-XA-NPs had a longer retention time and a slower drug release than those of XA. In vitro experiments confirmed that PDA-XA-NPs exerted similar inhibitory effects on gastric cancer to those of XA, which lasted for a period of time. CONCLUSION High-adhesion NPs were constructed. Gastric cancer was targeted by orally administered PDA-XA-NPs, as a potentially feasible therapy. Eventually, the bioavailability of XA was increased.

Abstract
Modifying different functional moieties into one platform is a conventional strategy for constructing theranostic systems. However, this strategy usually suffers from the unsatisfied efficiency of each individual function. Herein, a programmed self-assembly strategy is presented to fabricate theranostic nanoparticles, which significantly exhibit a dual-modality imaging function involving fluorescence imaging and magnetic resource imaging (MRI), and an efficient targeted therapy to cancer cells. Fluorescent vesicles are first self-assembled by aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active molecules. Gd3+, serving as an MRI agent, is subsequently bound to the vesicles to provide highly positive charges, which have been realized to be anticancer active. Thereafter, transferrin (Tf) protein is introduced onto the surface of Gd3+ coordinated vesicles, shielding the positive charges and making the nanoparticles nontoxic to cells. With the assistance of Tf protein, the constructed nanoparticles are specifically targeted to cancer cells. Moreover, Tf proteins further peel off from nanoparticles in lysosomes due to their charge reversion, resulting in highly positive charges and heavy toxicity of nanoparticles to kill cancer cells. In the nanoparticles, each of the functional components acts as double-sided adhesive tape to glue the next layer, so that the abilities of functional components are not compromised. This strategy holds great potential for theranostic nanomedicine.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) is a bioinspired fascinating polymer which is considered nowadays as a material of choice for designing drug delivery nanosystems. Indeed, PDA exhibits multiple interesting features including simple preparation protocols, biocompatibility, simple functionalization procedures, free radicals scavenging and photothermal/photoacoustic properties. However, because of its heterogeneous structure, clear procedures about PDA nanoparticles synthesis and PEGylation with well-defined and reproducible physicochemical properties such as size, shape and nanomechanics are still needed. In this work, we established tightly controlled experimental conditions to synthesize PDA nanoparticles with well-defined size and yield. This allowed us to identify the factors that affect the most these two parameters and to construct surface response plots with accurate predictive values of size and yield. The nanomechanical properties of PDA NPs exhibiting different sizes have been studied with AFM nanoindentation experiments. Our results demonstrated for the first time that the elasticity of PDA NPs was decreasing with their size. This could be explained by the higher geometric packing order of the stacked oligomeric fractions inside the core of the biggest PDA NPs. Next, in order to determine the best PEGylation experimental conditions of PDA NPs using thiol-terminated PEG that allow grafting the highest polymer density with proteins repelling properties, we have first optimized the PEGylation strategy on PDA films. By using a combination of QCM-D and AFM experiments, we could demonstrate that efficient PEGylation of PDA films could be done even at low PEG concentration but in the presence of NaCl which exerts a salting out effect on PEG chains improving thus the grafting density. Finally, we transposed these experimental conditions to PDA NPs and we could synthesize PEGylated PDA NPs exhibiting high stability in physiological conditions as revealed by FTIR and DLS experiments respectively.

Abstract
Among a plethora of nano-sized therapeutics, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been some of the most investigated novel materials for, predominantly, cancer drug delivery applications. Due to their large drug uptake capacities and slow-release mechanisms, MOFs are desirable drug delivery vehicles that protect and transport sensitive drug molecules to target sites. The inclusion of other guest materials into MOFs to make MOF-composite materials has added further functionality, from externally triggered drug release to improved pharmacokinetics and diagnostic aids. MOF-composites are synthetically versatile and can include examples such as magnetic nanoparticles in MOFs for MRI image contrast and polymer coatings that improve the blood-circulation time. From synthesis to applications, this review will consider the main developments in MOF-composite chemistry for biomedical applications and demonstrate the potential of these novel agents in nanomedicine. It is concluded that, although vast synthetic progress has been made in the field, it requires now to develop more biomedical expertise with a focus on rational model selection, a major comparative toxicity study, and advanced targeting techniques.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) is a major type of artificial melanin material with many interesting properties such as antioxidant activity, free-radical scavenging, high photothermal conversion efficiency, and strong metal-ion chelation. The high affinity of PDA to a wide range of metals/metal ions has offered a new class of functional metal-containing polydopamine (MPDA) nanomaterials with promising functions and extensive applications. Understanding and controlling the metal coordination environment is vital to achieve desirable functions for which such materials can be exploited. MPDA nanomaterials with metal/metal ions as the active functions are reviewed, including their synthesis and metal coordination environment and their applications in catalysis, batteries, solar cells, capacitors, medical imaging, cancer therapy, antifouling, and antibacterial coating. The current trends, limitations, and future directions of this area are also explored.

Abstract
The mussel inspired polydopamine has acquired great relevance in the field of nanomedicines, owing to its incredible physicochemical properties. Polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) due to their low cytotoxicity, high biocompatibility and ready biodegradation have already been widely investigated in various drug delivery, chemotherapeutic, and diagnostic applications. In addition, owing to its highly reactive nature, it possesses a very high capability for loading drugs and chemotherapeutics. Therefore, the loading efficiency of PDA NPs for an antibiotic i.e., gentamicin (G) has been investigated in this work. For this purpose, an in-situ polymerization method was studied to load the drug into PDA NPs using variable drug: monomer ratios. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed the successful loading of drug within PDA NPs, mainly via hydrogen bonding between the amine groups of gentamicin and the hydroxyl groups of PDA. The loading amount was quantified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and the highest percentage loading capacity was achieved for G-PDA prepared with drug to monomer ratio of 1:1. Moreover, the gentamicin loaded PDA NPs were tested in a preliminary antibacterial evaluation using the broth microdilution method against both Gram-(+) Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-(-) Pseudomonas aeruginosa microorganisms. The highest loaded G-PDA sample exhibited the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration values. The developed gentamicin loaded PDA is very promising for long term drug release and treating various microbial infections.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive hydrogels with adaptable physical properties show great potential in the biomedical field. In particular, the collection of electrical signals is essential for precision medicine. Here, a simple strategy is demonstrated for achieving controlled drug release and real-time monitoring using an interpenetrating binary network consisting of a graphene aerogel and a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogel with incorporated polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA-NPs). Owing to the good physical properties of graphene and the embedded PDA-NPs, the hybrid hydrogel shows enhanced mechanical properties and good electrical conductivity. In addition, the hybrid hydrogel also shows dual thermo- and near-infrared light responsiveness, as revealed by the controlled release of a model drug. In addition, as the hydrogel exhibits detectable changes in resistance during drug release, the drug-release behavior of the hydrogel can be monitored in real time using electrical signals. Moreover, owing to the abundance of catechol groups on the PDA-NPs, the hybrid hydrogel shows good tissue adhesiveness, as demonstrated using in vivo experiments. Thus, the developed hybrid hydrogel exhibits considerable practical applicability for drug delivery and precision medicine.

Abstract
Exploring a combined phototherapeutic strategy to overcome the limitations of a single mode therapy and inducing high anticancer efficiency is highly promising for precision cancer nanomedicine. However, a single-wavelength laser activates dual photothermal/photodynamic therapy (PTT/PDT) treatment is still a formidable challenge. Herein, we strategically design and fabricate a multifunctional theranostic nanosystem based on chlorin e6-functionalized polydopamine (PDA) coated prussian blue/manganese dioxide nanoparticles (PB-MnO2@PDA-Ce6 NPs). Interestingly, the obtained PB-MnO2@PDA NPs not only offer an effective delivery system for Ce6 but also provide strong optical absorption in the near-infrared range, endowing high antitumor efficacy of PTT. More importantly, the as-prepared PB-MnO2@PDA-Ce6 nanoagents exhibit an effective oxygen generation, superior reactive oxygen species (ROS), and outstanding photothermal conversion ability to greatly improve PTT and PDT treatments. As a result, both in vitro and in vivo treatments guided by MR imaging on liver cancer cells reveal the complete cell/tumor eradication under a single wavelength of 660 nm laser irradiation, implying the simultaneous synergistic PDT/PTT effects triggered by PB-MnO2@PDA-Ce6 nanoplatform, which are much higher than individual treatment. Taken together, our phototherapeutic nanoagents exhibit an excellent therapeutic performance, which may act as a nanoplatform to find safe and clinically translatable routes to accelerate cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
Biological structures have emerged through millennia of evolution, and nature has fine-tuned the material properties in order to optimise the structure-function relationship. Following this paradigm, polydopamine (PDA), which was found to be crucial for the adhesion of mussels to wet surfaces, was hence initially introduced as a coating substance to increase the chemical reactivity and surface adhesion properties. Structurally, polydopamine is very similar to melanin, which is a pigment of human skin responsible for the protection of underlying skin layers by efficiently absorbing light with potentially harmful wavelengths. Recent findings have shown the subsequent release of the energy (in the form of heat) upon light excitation, presenting it as an ideal candidate for photothermal applications. Thus, polydopamine can both be used to (i) coat nanoparticle surfaces and to (ii) form capsules and ultra-small (nano)particles/nanocomposites while retaining bulk characteristics (i.e., biocompatibility, stability under UV irradiation, heat conversion, and activity during photoacoustic imaging). Due to the aforementioned properties, polydopamine-based materials have since been tested in adhesive and in energy-related as well as in a range of medical applications such as for tumour ablation, imaging, and drug delivery. In this review, we focus upon how different forms of the material can be synthesised and the use of polydopamine in biological and biomedical applications.

Abstract
Light-responsive nanoprobes were suffering from the threat of high-dose laser irradiation, and it was important for constructing new nanoprobes for safe and efficient phototheranostics. Here, polydopamine (PDA)-coated gold nanobipyramids (AuNBPs@PDA) were synthesized for amplified photoacoustic (PA) signal and enhanced photothermal conversion with low-dose laser irradiation and then doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded AuNBPs@PDA-DOX nanoprobes were constructed for PA imaging-guided synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemotherapy. The AuNBPs@PDA nanoparticles possessed higher photothermal conversion efficiency (42.07%) and stronger PA signal than those of AuNBP nanoparticles, and the AuNBPs@PDA-DOX nanoprobes showed dual-responsive DOX release of pH and photothermal stimulation. With low-dose laser irradiation (1.0 W/cm2) and low-concentration AuNBPs@PDA-DOX (60 μg/mL), the 4T1 cell viability was reduced to about 5%, owing to the combination of PTT and chemotherapy, compared with 42.3% of single chemotherapy and 25.3% of single PTT. Moreover, by modeling 4T1 tumor-bearing nude mice, in vivo PA imaging was achieved and the tumors were completely inhibited, demonstrating the excellent synergistic effect of PTT/chemotherapy. Therefore, the developed AuNBPs@PDA-DOX nanoprobes can be used for phototheranostics and synergistic chemotherapy, achieving low-dose laser irradiation and high-efficient visualized theranostics.
