Abstract
X-ray-based analytics are routinely applied in many fields, including physics, chemistry, materials science, and engineering. The full potential of such techniques in the life sciences and medicine, however, has not yet been fully exploited. We highlight current and upcoming advances in this direction. We describe different X-ray-based methodologies (including those performed at synchrotron light sources and X-ray free-electron lasers) and their potentials for application to investigate the nano-bio interface. The discussion is predominantly guided by asking how such methods could better help to understand and to improve nanoparticle-based drug delivery, though the concepts also apply to nano-bio interactions in general. We discuss current limitations and how they might be overcome, particularly for future use in vivo.

Abstract
In 2017 the World Health Organization (WHO) announced a list of the 12 multidrug-resistant (MDR) families of bacteria that pose the greatest threat to human health, and recommended that new measures should be taken to promote the development of new therapies against these superbugs. Few antibiotics have been developed in the last two decades. Part of this slow progression can be attributed to the surge in the resistance acquired by bacteria, which is holding back pharma companies from taking the risk to invest in new antibiotic entities. With limited antibiotic options and an escalating bacterial resistance there is an urgent need to explore alternative ways of meeting this global challenge. The field of medical nanotechnology has emerged as an innovative and a powerful tool for treating some of the most complicated health conditions. Different inorganic nanomaterials including gold, silver, and others have showed potential antibacterial efficacies. Interestingly, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have gained specific attention, due to their biocompatibility, ease of surface functionalization, and their optical properties. In this review, we will focus on the latest research, done in the field of antibacterial gold nanoparticles; by discussing the mechanisms of action, antibacterial efficacies, and future implementations of these innovative antibacterial systems.

Abstract
Cancer is still one of the most serious diseases with threats to health and life. Although some advances have been made in targeting delivery of antitumor drugs over the past number of years, there are still many problems needing to be solved, such as poor efficacy and high systemic toxicity. Micro/nanomotors capable of self-propulsion in fluid provide promising platforms for improving the efficiency of tumor delivery. Herein, the recent progress in micro/nanomotors for tumor targeting delivery and therapy is reviewed, with special focus on the contributions of micro/nanomotors to the different stages of tumor targeting delivery as well as the combination therapy by micro/nanomotors. The present limitations and future directions are also put forward for further development.

Abstract
In recent years, the irrational use of antibiotics has escalated the evolution of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial strains. The infectious diseases caused by these MDR bacterial strains remain a major threat to human health and have emerged as the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The WHO and CDC have expressed serious concern regarding the continued increase in the development of multidrug resistance among bacteria. The antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a severe global threat of growing concern to human health and economic burden. Bacteria have developed the ability to resist antimicrobials by altering target site/enzyme, inactivation of the enzyme, decreasing cell permeability, increasing efflux due to over-expression of efflux pumps, target protection, target overproduction, and many other ways. The shortage of new antimicrobials and rapid rise in antibiotic resistance demands pressing need to develop alternate antibacterial agents.

Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) is one of the most deadly cancers worldwide, with very low survival rates, mainly due to poor management, which has barely changed in recent years. Nanomedicines, especially gold nanomaterials, with their unique and size-dependent properties offer a potential solution to many challenges in the field. The versatility afforded by the shape, size, charge and surface chemistry of gold nanostructures allows them to be adapted for many applications in the diagnosis, treatment and imaging of LC. In this review, a survey of the most recent advances in the field is presented with an emphasis on the optical properties of gold nanoscale materials and their use in cancer management. Gold nanoparticle toxicology has also been a focus of interest for many years but the studies have also sometimes arrived at contradictory conclusions. To enable extrapolation and facilitate the development of medicines based on gold nanomaterials, it must be assumed that each design will have its own unique characteristics that require evaluation before translation to the clinic. Advances in the understanding and recognition of the molecular signatures of LC have aided the development of personalised medicines. Tailoring the treatment to each case should, ideally increase the survival outcomes as well as reduce medical costs. This review seeks to present the potential of gold nanomaterials in LC management and to provide a unified view, which will be of interest to those in the field as well as researchers considering entering this highly important area of research.

Abstract
Biomaterial carriers offer modular features to control the delivery and presentation of vaccines and immunotherapies. This tunability is a distinct capability of biomaterials. Understanding how tunable material features impact immune responses is important to improve vaccine and immunotherapy design, as well as clinical translation. Here we discuss the modularity of biomaterial properties as a means of controlling encounters with immune signals across scales - tissue, cell, molecular, and time - and ultimately, to direct stimulation or regulation of immune function. We highlight these advances using illustrations from recent literature across infectious disease, cancer, and autoimmunity. As the immune engineering field matures, informed design criteria could support more rational biomaterial carriers for vaccination and immunotherapy.

Abstract
The tragic deaths of three patients in a recent AAV-based X-linked myotubular myopathy clinical trial highlight once again the pressing need for safe and reliable gene delivery vectors. Non-viral minimized DNA vectors offer one possible way to meet this need. Recent pre-clinical results with minimized DNA vectors have yielded promising outcomes in cancer therapy, stem cell therapy, stem cell reprograming, and other uses. Broad clinical use of these vectors, however, remains to be realized. Further advances in vector design and production are ongoing. An intriguing and promising potential development results from manipulation of the specific shape of non-viral minimized DNA vectors. By improving cellular uptake and biodistribution specificity, this approach could impact gene therapy, DNA nanotechnology, and personalized medicine.

Abstract
In this study, two sets of methyl-coated non-porous and mesoporous amorphous silica materials of two target sizes (100 and 300 nm; 10-844 m2/g) were used to investigate the potential role of specific surface area (SSA) and porosity on the oral toxicity in mice. Female Swiss mice were administered by oral gavage for 5 consecutive days. Two silica dose levels (100 and 1000 mg/kg b.w.) were tested for all four materials. All dispersions were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA). Batch dispersions of porous silica were rather unstable due to agglomeration. Animals were sacrificed one day after the last administration or after a three-week recovery period. No relevant toxicological effects were induced by any of the silica materials tested, as evaluated by body weight, gross pathology, relative organ weights (liver, spleen, kidneys), hematology, blood biochemistry, genotoxicity (Comet assay in jejunum cells and micronucleus test in peripheral blood erythrocytes), liver and small intestine histopathology, and intestinal inflammation. The presence of silica particles in the intestine was evaluated by a hyperspectral imaging microscopy system (CytoViva) using histological samples of jejunum tissue. Silica spectral signatures were found in jejunum samples with all the treatments, but only statistically significant in one of the treatment groups.

Abstract
The blood brain barrier (BBB) is a very selective barrier that protects the brain and the central nervous system (CNS) from the entry of harmful substances and helps regulate the exchange of different molecules and nutrients from and into the brain and the CNS. This selectivity makes delivering therapeutic and diagnostic materials across the BBB very challenging. In this study, different shapes and sizes of gold nanoparticles (GNP) were synthesized and functionalized with five different thiolated ligands to obtain GNP with various surface chemistries. The potential of GNP of different properties to be accumulated into the brain through the BBB and into other organs was investigated in a mouse model using qualitative and quantitative approaches. Gold nanorods (GNR) functionalized with 4-mercaptophenol (Mph) showed the highest penetration ability across the BBB into the brain with no significant deposition in other organs. Interestingly, increasing the size of GNR retarded their delivery into the brain, while enhancing their accumulation in other organs. On the other hand, gold nanospheres (GNS) demonstrated high deposition percentages in the brain and other organs with possible toxic effects. The properties of GNP play a crucial role in their interaction with the BBB and accumulation in the brain and other organs. Thus, GNP can be considered a promising nano-platform for drug delivery into the brain and as a photothermal-inducing agent against brain cancer.

Abstract
The presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) limit gold nanoparticles (GNP) accumulation in central nervous system (CNS) after intravenous (IV) administration. The intranasal (IN) route has been suggested as a good strategy for circumventing the BBB. In this report, we used gold nanoprisms (78 nm) and nanospheres (47 nm), of comparable surface areas (8000 vs 7235 nm2) functionalized with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) and D1 peptide (GNPr-D1 and GNS-D1, respectively) to evaluate their delivery to the CNS after IN administration. Cell viability assay showed that GNPr-D1 and GNS-D1 were not cytotoxic at concentrations ranged between 0.05 and 0.5 nM. IN administration of GNPr-D1 and GNS-D1 demonstrated a significant difference between the two types of GNP, in which the latter reached the CNS in higher levels. Pharmacokinetic study showed that the peak brain level of gold was 0.75 h after IN administration of GNS-D1. After IN and IV administrations of GNS-D1, gold concentrations found in brain were 55 times higher via the IN route compared to IV administration. Data revealed that the IN route is more effective for targeting gold to the brain than IV administration. Finally, no significant difference was observed between the IN and IV routes in the distribution of GNS-D1 in the various brain areas.

Abstract
As one of the most promising and effective delivery systems for targeted controlled-release drugs, nanocarriers (NCs) have been widely studied. Although the development of nanoparticle preparations is very prosperous, the safety and effectiveness of NCs are not guaranteed and cannot be precisely controlled due to the unclear processes of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME), as well as the drug release mechanism of NCs in the body. Thus, the approval of NCs for clinical use is extremely rare. This paper reviews the research progress and challenges of using NCs in vivo based on a review of several hundred closely related publications. First, the ADME of NCs under different administration routes is summarized; second, the influences of the physical, chemical, and biosensitive properties, as well as targeted modifications of NCs on their disposal process, are systematically analyzed; third, the tracer technology related to the in vivo study of NCs is elaborated; and finally, the challenges and perspectives of nanoparticle research in vivo are introduced. This review may help readers to understand the current research progress and challenges of nanoparticles in vivo, as well as of tracing technology in nanoparticle research, to help researchers to design safer and more efficient NCs. Furthermore, this review may aid researchers in choosing or exploring more suitable tracing technologies to further advance the development of nanotechnology.

Abstract
Zwitterionic molecules are known to resist nonspecific protein adsorption and have been proposed as an alternative to the widely used polyethylene glycol. Recently, zwitterionic-like nanoparticles were created from the coimmobilization of positive and negative ligands, resulting in surfaces that also prevent protein corona formation while keeping available sites for bioconjugation. However, it is unclear if they are able to keep their original properties when immersed in biological environments while retaining a toxicity-free profile, indispensable features before considering these structures for clinics. Herein, we obtained optimized zwitterionic-like silica nanoparticles from the functionalization with varying ratios of THPMP and DETAPTMS organosilanes and investigated their behavior in realistic biological milieu. The generated zwitterionic-like particle was able to resist single-protein adsorption, while the interaction with a myriad of serum proteins led to significant loss of colloidal stability. Moreover, the zwitterionic particles presented poor hemocompatibility, causing considerable disruption of red blood cells. Our findings suggest that the exposure of ionic groups allows these structures to directly engage with the environment and that electrostatic neutrality is not enough to grant low-fouling and stealth properties.

Abstract
Aim: We investigated the use of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) as drug nanocarriers combining an anti-osteoporotic agent, alendronate (ALN), and an anti-cancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX). Materials & methods: CNC physicochemical characterization, in vivo imaging coupled with histology and in vitro uptake and toxicity assays were carried out. Results: In vivo CNC-ALN did not modify bone tropism and lung penetration, whereas its liver and kidney accumulation was slightly higher compared with CNCs alone. In vitro studies showed that CNC-ALN did not impair ALN's effect on osteoclasts, whereas CNC-DOX confirmed the therapeutic potential against bone metastatic cancer cells. Conclusions: This study provides robust proof of the potential of CNCs as easy, flexible and specific carriers to deliver compounds to the bone.

Abstract
Nanotheranostics, which combines optical multiplexed disease detection with therapeutic monitoring in a single modality, has the potential to propel the field of nanomedicine toward genuine personalized medicine. Currently employed mainstream modalities using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in diagnosis and treatment are limited by a lack of specificity and potential issues associated with systemic toxicity. Light-mediated nanotheranostics offers a relatively non-invasive alternative for cancer diagnosis and treatment by using AuNPs of specific shapes and sizes that absorb near infrared (NIR) light, inducing plasmon resonance for enhanced tumor detection and generating localized heat for tumor ablation. Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in the field of nanotheranostics, however the main biological and translational barriers to nanotheranostics leading to a new paradigm in anti-cancer nanomedicine stem from the molecular complexities of cancer and an incomplete mechanistic understanding of utilization of Au-NPs in living systems. This work provides a comprehensive overview on the biological, physical and translational barriers facing the development of nanotheranostics. It will also summarise the recent advances in engineering specific AuNPs, their unique characteristics and, importantly, tunability to achieve the desired optical/photothermal properties.

Abstract
The intestinal epithelium is considered to be a major obstacle to the gastrointestinal administration for water-insoluble drugs. To enhance the intestinal absorption of paclitaxel by improving its solubility and overcoming the intestinal epithelium barrier, transferrin-modified paclitaxel nanocrystals were prepared based on the specific transferrin receptor expressed on the apical membrane of the intestinal epithelium and examined to exhibit a mean size of around 178 nm, a rod-like morphology, a sustained release property, and an enhanced in vitro antitumor effect. The in situ intestinal perfusion study proved that the intestinal absorption of transferrin-modified paclitaxel nanocrystals was remarkably enhanced compared with that of Taxol and unmodified paclitaxel nanocrystals, which was further evidenced by the result of pharmacokinetic study. Their transcytosis pathway and intracellular trafficking track were disclosed using Caco-2 cell monolayers. The transcytosis of transferrin-modified paclitaxel nanocrystals and unmodified paclitaxel nanocrystals was principally mediated by clathrin and lipid rafts. The colocalization of both paclitaxel nanocrystals with the organelles observed under confocal microscopy suggested that the late endosomes, lysosomes, ER, and Golgi apparatus played a part in the transcellular transport of both paclitaxel nanocrystals during their transcytosis. Therefore, the designed transferrin-modified drug nanocrystals might have a great potential in the enhancement of intestinal absorption of water-insoluble drugs.

Abstract
Thousands of different nanoparticles (NPs) involve in our daily life with various origins from food, cosmetics, drugs, etc. It is believed that decreasing the size of materials up to nanometer levels can facilitate their unfavorable absorption since they can pass the natural barriers of live tissues and organs even, they can go across the relatively impermeable membranes. The interaction of these NPs with the biological environment disturbs the natural functions of cells and its components and cause health issues. In the lack of the detailed and comprehensive standard protocols about the toxicity of NPs materials, their control, and effects, this review study focuses on the current research literature about the related factors in toxicity of NPs such as size, concentration, etc. with an emphasis on metal and metal oxide nanoparticles. The goal of the study is to highlight their potential hazard and the advancement of green non-cytotoxic nanomaterials with safe threshold dose levels to resolve the toxicity issues. This study supports the NPs design along with minimizing the adverse effects of nanoparticles especially those used in biological treatments.

Abstract
The liver is one of the most important multi-functional organs in the human body. Amongst various crucial functions, it is the main detoxification center and predominantly implicated in the clearance of xenobiotics potentially including particulates that reach this organ. It is now well established that a significant quantity of injected, ingested or inhaled nanomaterials (NMs) translocate from primary exposure sites and accumulate in liver. This review aimed to summarize and discuss the progress made in the field of hepatic nanotoxicology, and crucially highlight knowledge gaps that still exist.Key considerations include In vivo studies clearly demonstrate that low-solubility NMs predominantly accumulate in the liver macrophages the Kupffer cells (KC), rather than hepatocytes.KCs lining the liver sinusoids are the first cell type that comes in contact with NMs in vivo. Further, these macrophages govern overall inflammatory responses in a healthy liver. Therefore, interaction with of NM with KCs in vitro appears to be very important.Many acute in vivo studies demonstrated signs of toxicity induced by a variety of NMs. However, acute studies may not be that meaningful due to liver's unique and unparalleled ability to regenerate. In almost all investigations where a recovery period was included, the healthy liver was able to recover from NM challenge. This organ's ability to regenerate cannot be reproduced in vitro. However, recommendations and evidence is offered for the design of more physiologically relevant in vitro models.Models of hepatic disease enhance the NM-induced hepatotoxicity.The review offers a number of important suggestions for the future of hepatic nanotoxicology study design. This is of great significance as its findings are highly relevant due to the development of more advanced in vitro, and in silico models aiming to improve physiologically relevant toxicological testing strategies and bridging the gap between in vitro and in vivo experimentation.

Abstract
The unique features of noble-metal nanostructures (NMNs) are leading to unprecedented expansion of research and exploration of their application in therapeutics, diagnostics and bioimaging fields. With the ever-growing applications of NMNs, both therapeutic and environmental NMNs are likely to be exposed to tissues and organs, requiring careful studies towards their biological effects in vitro and in vivo. Upon NMNs exposure, tissues and cells may undergo a series of adaptive changes both in morphology and function. At the cellular level, the accumulation of NMNs in various subcellular organelles including lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, and nucleus may interfere with their functions, causing changes in a variety of cellular functions, such as digestion, protein synthesis and secretion, energy metabolism, mitochondrial respiration, and proliferation. In animals, retention of NMNs in metabolic-, respiratory-, immune-related, and other organs can trigger significant physiological and pathological changes to these organs and influence their functions. Exploring how NMNs interact with tissues and cells and the underlying mechanisms are of vital importance for their future applications. Here, we illustrate the characteristics of NMNs-induced adaptive changes both in vitro and in vivo. Potential strategies in the design of NMNs are also discussed to take advantage of beneficial adaptive changes and avoid unfavorable changes for the proper implementation of these nanoplatforms.

Machine learning predicts the functional composition of the protein corona and the cellular recognition of nanoparticles. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2020; 117:10492-10499.

Abstract
The protein corona affects the clinical applications, organ targeting, and safety assessment of nanomaterials, and prediction of the protein corona would be valuable for the design of ideal nanomaterials. However, no methods to predict the protein corona are available. Overcoming the numerous quantitative and qualitative factors influencing corona formation, the present work builds models that precisely predict the functional composition of the protein corona and the cell recognition of nanoparticles (NPs) integrating machine learning and meta-analysis. This workflow provides an effective method to predict the functional composition of the protein corona that determines cell recognition to guide the synthesis and applications of NPs. Protein corona formation is critical for the design of ideal and safe nanoparticles (NPs) for nanomedicine, biosensing, organ targeting, and other applications, but methods to quantitatively predict the formation of the protein corona, especially for functional compositions, remain unavailable. The traditional linear regression model performs poorly for the protein corona, as measured by R2 (less than 0.40). Here, the performance with R2 over 0.75 in the prediction of the protein corona was achieved by integrating a machine learning model and meta-analysis. NPs without modification and surface modification were identified as the two most important factors determining protein corona formation. According to experimental verification, the functional protein compositions (e.g., immune proteins, complement proteins, and apolipoproteins) in complex coronas were precisely predicted with good R2 (most over 0.80). Moreover, the method successfully predicted the cellular recognition (e.g., cellular uptake by macrophages and cytokine release) mediated by functional corona proteins. This workflow provides a method to accurately and quantitatively predict the functional composition of the protein corona that determines cellular recognition and nanotoxicity to guide the synthesis and applications of a wide range of NPs by overcoming limitations and uncertainty.

Abstract
Nanoparticles have been widely used in tumor targeted drug delivery, while the antitumor effects are not always satisfactory due to the limited penetration and retention. As we all know, there is a paradox that nanoparticles with large sizes tend to distribute around tumor blood vessels rather than penetrate into tumor parenchyma, while smaller sizes can penetrate deeply but with poor tumor retention. In recent days, an intelligent, size-tunable strategy provided a solution to determine the size problem of nanoparticles and exhibited good application prospects. In this review, we summarize series of stimuli-induced aggregation and shrinkage strategies for tumor targeted drug delivery, which can significantly increase the retention and penetration of nanodrugs in tumor sites at the same time, thus promoting treatment efficacy. Internal (enzymes, pH, and redox) and external (light and temperature) stimuli are introduced to change the morphology of the original nanodrugs through protonation, hydrophobization, hydrogen bond, π-π stacking and enzymolysis-resulted click reactions or dissociation, etc. Apart from applications in oncotherapy, size-tunable strategies also have a great prospect in the diagnosis and real time bioimaging fields, which are also introduced in this review. Finally, the potential challenges for application and future directions are thoroughly discussed, providing guidance for further clinical transformation.

Abstract
Despite the common knowledge that the reticuloendothelial system is largely responsible for blood clearance of systemically administered nanoparticles, the sequestration mechanism remains a "black box". Using transgenic zebrafish embryos with cell type-specific fluorescent reporters and fluorescently labeled model nanoparticles (70 nm SiO2), we here demonstrate simultaneous three-color in vivo imaging of intravenously injected nanoparticles, macrophages, and scavenger endothelial cells (SECs). The trafficking processes were further revealed at ultrastructural resolution by transmission electron microscopy. We also find, using a correlative light-electron microscopy approach, that macrophages rapidly sequester nanoparticles via membrane adhesion and endocytosis (including macropinocytosis) within minutes after injection. In contrast, SECs trap single nanoparticles via scavenger receptor-mediated endocytosis, resulting in gradual sequestration with a time scale of hours. Inhibition of the scavenger receptors prevented SECs from accumulating nanoparticles but enhanced uptake in macrophages, indicating the competitive nature of nanoparticle clearance in vivo. To directly quantify the relative contributions of the two cell types to overall nanoparticle sequestration, the differential sequestration kinetics was studied within the first 30 min post-injection. This revealed a much higher and increasing relative contribution of SECs, as they by far outnumber macrophages in zebrafish embryos, suggesting the importance of the macrophage:SECs ratio in a given tissue. Further characterizing macrophages on their efficiency in nanoparticle clearance, we show that inflammatory stimuli diminish the uptake of nanoparticles per cell. Our study demonstrates the strength of transgenic zebrafish embryos for intravital real-time and ultrastructural imaging of nanomaterials that may provide mechanistic insights into nanoparticle clearance in rodent models and humans.

Size, Surface Functionalization, and Genotoxicity of Gold Nanoparticles In Vitro. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 10:nano10020271.

Abstract
Several studies suggested that gold nanoparticles (NPs) could be genotoxic in vitro and in vivo. However, gold NPs currently produced present a wide range of sizes and functionalization, which could affect their interactions with the environment or with biological structures and, thus, modify their toxic effects. In this study, we investigated the role of surface charge in determining the genotoxic potential of gold NPs, as measured by the induction of DNA damage (comet assay) and chromosomal damage (micronucleus assay) in human bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells. The cellular uptake of gold NPs was assessed by hyperspectral imaging. Two core sizes (~5 nm and ~20 nm) and three functionalizations representing negative (carboxylate), positive (ammonium), and neutral (poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)ylated) surface charges were examined. Cationic ammonium gold NPs were clearly more cytotoxic than their anionic and neutral counterparts, but genotoxicity was not simply dependent on functionalization or size, since DNA damage was induced by 20-nm ammonium and PEGylated gold NPs, while micronucleus induction was increased by 5-nm ammonium and 20-nm PEGylated gold NPs. The 5-nm carboxylated gold NPs were not genotoxic, and evidence on the genotoxicity of the 20-nm carboxylated gold NPs was restricted to a positive result at the lowest dose in the micronucleus assay. When interpreting the results, it has to be taken into account that cytotoxicity limited the doses available for the ammonium-functionalized gold NPs and that gold NPs were earlier described to interfere with the comet assay procedure, possibly resulting in a false positive result. In conclusion, our findings show that the cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of gold NPs are clearly enhanced by positive surface charge, but neither functionalization nor size can single-handedly account for the genotoxic effects of the gold NPs.

Abstract
Aim: To study the difference in biodistribution of gold nanoprisms (NPr) and nanorods (NR), PEGylated to ensure colloidal stability. Materials & methods: Surface changes were studied for nanoparticles in different media, while the biodistribution was quantified and imaged in vivo. Results: Upon interaction with the mouse serum, NR showed more abrupt changes in surface properties than NPr. In the in vivo tests, while NPr accumulated similarly in the spleen and liver, NR showed much higher gold presence in the spleen than in liver; together with some accumulation in kidneys, which was nonexistent in NPr. NPr were cleared from the tissues 2 months after administration, while NR were more persistent. Conclusion: The results suggest that the differential biodistribution is caused by size-/shape-dependent interactions with the serum.

Translocation of transition metal oxide nanoparticles to breast milk and offspring: The necessity of bridging mother-offspring-integration toxicological assessments.

Abstract
Although infant nanomaterial exposure is a worldwide concern, breastfeeding transfer of transition metal-oxide nanoparticles to as well as their toxicity to offspring are still unclear. Breastfeeding transmits nutrition and immunity from mothers to their offspring; it also provides a portal for maternal toxins to enter offspring. Thus, a toxicology assessment of both mothers and their offspring should be established to monitor nanomaterial exposure during lactation. Here, we determined the effects of the exposure route on the biodistribution, biopersistence, and toxicology of nanoparticles (titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, and zirconium dioxide) in both mouse dams and their offspring. Oral and airway exposure routes were tested using gavage and intranasal administration, respectively. Biodistribution in the main organs (breast, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, intestine, and brain) and biopersistence in the blood and milk were determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Hematology and histomorphology analyses were performed to determine the toxicology of the nanoparticles. A reduced offspring body weight was found with the reduced nanoparticle size. Furthermore, both oral and airway exposure increased the nanoparticle concentrations in the main tissues and milk. More nanoparticles were transferred into maternal tissues and milk via airway exposure than via oral exposure. During the transfer of the metal from the exposed nanoparticles to milk, the immune cell pathway played a more important role in the airway route than in the oral exposure route. Finally, maternal exposure via both the oral and airway routes reduced the body weight and survival rate of their breastfeeding offspring, which could possibly be attributed to the toxicity of nanoparticles to blood cells and organs. In conclusion, maternal exposure to nanoparticles led to a reduced body weight and survival rate in breastfed offspring, and nanoparticle exposure via the airway route led to a higher immune response and tissue injury than that via the oral exposure route. This study suggests that the use of products containing metal nanoparticles in breastfeeding mothers and their offspring should be reconsidered to maintain a safe breastfeeding system.

Abstract
We know surprisingly little about the long-term outcomes for nanomaterials interacting with organisms. To date, most of what we know is derived from in vivo studies that limit the range of materials studied and the scope of advanced molecular biology tools applied. Long-term in vitro nanoparticle studies are hampered by a lack of suitable models, as standard cell culture techniques present several drawbacks, while technical limitations render current three-dimensional (3D) cellular spheroid models less suited. Now, by controlling the kinetic processes of cell assembly and division in a non-Newtonian culture medium, we engineer reproducible cell clusters of controlled size and phenotype, leading to a convenient and flexible long-term 3D culture that allows nanoparticle studies over many weeks in an in vitro setting. We present applications of this model for the assessment of intracellular polymeric and silica nanoparticle persistence and found that hydrocarbon-based polymeric nanoparticles undergo no apparent degradation over long time periods with no obvious biological impact, while amorphous silica nanoparticles degrade at different rates over several weeks, depending on their synthesis method.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have been described as excellent candidates to overcome antibiotic resistance. Frequently, AMPs exhibit a wide therapeutic window, with low cytotoxicity and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against a variety of pathogens. In addition, some AMPs are also able to modulate the immune response, decreasing potential harmful effects such as sepsis. Despite these benefits, only a few formulations have successfully reached clinics. A common flaw in the druggability of AMPs is their poor pharmacokinetics, common to several peptide drugs, as they may be degraded by a myriad of proteases inside the organism. The combination of AMPs with carrier nanoparticles to improve delivery may enhance their half-life, decreasing the dosage and thus, reducing production costs and eventual toxicity. Here, we present the most recent advances in lipid and metal nanodevices for AMP delivery, with a special focus on metal nanoparticles and liposome formulations.

Abstract
Multi-branched metal nanomaterials can exhibit precisely controllable plasmonic properties with the precise control of their sizes and morphologies. In this study, trepang-like gold nanocrystals (AuNCs) with tunable plasmonic properties were synthesized via DNA-directed self-assembly technology. The gold precursor was precisely controlled to be reduced and grow along the DNA skeleton of DNA-conjugated gold nanorods to form multi-branched trepang-like nanocrystals. It was investigated in detail and proven that several key factors greatly influenced the precise control of the morphology and plasmonic property of the proposed AuNCs during their synthesis, including the gold precursor, reducing agent, surfactant, loading amount of DNA and DNA structure. The relative finite-difference time-domain calculation results suggested that the change in the plasmonic resonance peak is consistent with the precise change in the size and morphology of the as-synthesized AuNCs. The trepang-like AuNCs exhibited broad absorption bands in the wavelength range of 700-1100 nm with a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 36.2%. Finally, the trepang-like AuNCs with good biocompatibility were applied in photothermal therapy and imaging analysis.

Abstract
What to measure? is a key question in nanoscience, and it is not straightforward to address as different physicochemical properties define a nanoparticle sample. Most prominent among these properties are size, shape, surface charge, and porosity. Today researchers have an unprecedented variety of measurement techniques at their disposal to assign precise numerical values to those parameters. However, methods based on different physical principles probe different aspects, not only of the particles themselves, but also of their preparation history and their environment at the time of measurement. Understanding these connections can be of great value for interpreting characterization results and ultimately controlling the nanoparticle structure-function relationship. Here, the current techniques that enable the precise measurement of these fundamental nanoparticle properties are presented and their practical advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Some recommendations of how the physicochemical parameters of nanoparticles should be investigated and how to fully characterize these properties in different environments according to the intended nanoparticle use are proposed. The intention is to improve comparability of nanoparticle properties and performance to ensure the successful transfer of scientific knowledge to industrial real-world applications.

Abstract
Targeted drug delivery systems (TDDSs) provide a promising approach to overcome the side effect of traditional chemotherapy by specific tumor targeting and drug release. Hyaluronan (HA), as a selective CD44 targeting group, has been widely used in TDDSs for chemotherapy. However, different molecular weight HAs would demonstrate different binding ability to CD44, which may result in different therapeutic effects. Herein, a silica/hydroxyapatite (MSNs/HAP) hybrid carrier loaded with anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) (DOX@MSNs/HAP) is fabricated. HA and oligo HA (oHA) are coated onto the nanoparticles (HA-DOX@MSNs/HAP, oHA-DOX@MSNs/HAP), respectively, to investigate their performance in tumor targeting ability. oHA-DOX@MSNs/HAP shows much higher efficiency cellular uptake and drug release in tumor regions due to more effective CD44 targeting of oHA. Thus, the anticancer effect of oHA-DOX@MSNs/HAP is significantly enhanced compared to HA-DOX@MSNs/HAP, as demonstrated in a tumor-bearing mouse model. This study may enable the rational design of nanodrug systems for future tumor-targeted chemotherapy.

Abstract
Recently, photodynamic therapy (PDT) emerges as a promising way to initiate immune response and being used in combination with chemotherapy. However, the antitumor effect is restricted due to the poor tumor penetration and retention, premature drug release and immunosuppressive environment of tumor sites. And as the size of nanoparticles plays a key role in drug delivery, series of hyaluronidase-responsive size-reducible biomimetic nanoparticles (mCAuNCs@HA) with different initial sizes are synthesized, and the optimal size of 150 nm is screened out because of the best blood circulation, tumor penetration and retention. Then the photosensitizer pheophorbide A and ROS-responsive paclitaxel dimer prodrug (PXTK) are co-loaded to facilitate on-demand drug release. The hydrolysis byproduct cinnamaldehyde in turn stimulates the ROS production by mitochondria, which compensates for the ROS consumed in the hydrolysis process. Anti-PD-L1 peptide (dPPA) is furthered loaded to alleviate the immunosuppressive environment of tumor and enhance the function of cytotoxic T lymphocytes activated by PDT-induced immunogenic cell death. The combination therapy activates CD4+, CD8+ T cells and NK cells and enhances secretion of cytokines (TNF-α and IL-12) with tumor inhibition rate increased to 84.2% and no metastasis is observed, providing a viable combination therapy for better anti-tumor and anti-metastasis efficacy.

Abstract
Overcoming the epithelial barriers to enhance drug transport is a focused topic for gastrointestinal, intratracheal, intranasal, vaginal, and intrauterine delivery. Nanomedicines with targeting functionization promote such a process owing to specific ligand-receptor interaction. However, compared to the cell uptake of targeting nanotherapies, currently few studies concentrate on their transcytosis including endocytosis for "in" and exocytosis for "out". In fact, the cellular regulatory mechanism for these pathways as well as the principle of ligand's effect on the transcytosis are almost ignored. Here, we fabricated transferrin (Tf) functionalized nanogranules (Tf-NG) as the nanomedicine model and confirmed the difference in polar distributions of Tf receptors (TfRs) between two epithelium models (bipolarity for Caco-2 and unipolarity for MDCK cells). Compared to the nonspecific reference, Tf-conjugation boosted the endocytosis by different pathways in two cell models and transformed the intracellular route of Tf-NG in both cells differently, affecting exocytosis, recycling, and degradation but not the secretion pathway. Only bipolar cells could establish a complete transport flow from "in" to "out", leading to the enhanced transcytosis of Tf-NG. Importantly, epithelia could make responses to Tf-NG transcytosis. Based on the quantitative proteomics, the intracellular trafficking of Tf-NG altered the protein expression profiles, in which the endocytosis- and transcytosis-related proteins were specifically upregulated. Particularly, only bipolar cells could positively feed back to such trafficking via accelerating the subsequent Tf-NG transcytosis. Here, all the cell transport of Tf-NG was polarity associated. In summary, Tf modification elevated the transcytosis of Tf-NG across the epithelium by triggering the polarity-associated transport flow and positive cell feedback loop. These findings provided an insight into the targeting nanodelivery for efficient transport through epithelial barriers.

Abstract
Despite massive growth in nanomedicine research to date, the field still lacks fundamental understanding of how certain physical and chemical features of a nanoparticle affect its ability to overcome biological obstacles in vivo and reach its intended target. To gain fundamental understanding of how physical and chemical parameters affect the biological outcomes of administered nanoparticles, model systems that can systematically manipulate a single parameter with minimal influence on others are needed. Gold nanoparticles are particularly good model systems in this case as one can synthetically control the physical dimensions and surface chemistry of the particles independently and with great precision. Additionally, the chemical and physical properties of gold allow particles to be detected and quantified in tissues and cells with high sensitivity. Through systematic biological studies using gold nanoparticles, insights toward rationally designed nanomedicine for in vivo imaging and therapy can be obtained. This article is categorized under: Nanotechnology Approaches to Biology > Nanoscale Systems in Biology.

Abstract
Inorganic nanoparticles provide the opportunity to localize bioactive agents to the target sites and protect them from degradation. In many cases, acute toxicities of inorganic nanoparticles used for delivery applications have been investigated. However, little information is available regarding the long-term toxicity of such materials. This review focuses on the importance of subchronic and chronic toxicity assessment of inorganic nanoparticles investigated for delivery applications. We have attempted to provide a comprehensive review of the available literature for chronic toxicity assessment of inorganic nanoparticles. Where possible correlations are made between particle composition, physiochemical properties, duration, frequency and route of administration, as well as the sex of animals, with tissue and blood toxicity, immunotoxicity and genotoxicity. A critical gap analysis is provided and important factors that need to be considered for long-term toxicology of inorganic nanoparticles are discussed.

Abstract
The biological interactions of graphene have been extensively investigated over the last 10 years. However, very little is known about graphene interactions with the cell surface and how the graphene internalization process is driven and mediated by specific recognition sites at the interface with the cell. In this work, we propose a methodology to investigate direct molecular correlations between the biomolecular corona of graphene and specific cell receptors, showing that key protein recognition motifs, presented on the nanomaterial surface, can engage selectively with specific cell receptors. We consider the case of apolipoprotein A-I, found to be very abundant in the graphene protein corona, and observe that the uptake of graphene nanoflakes is somewhat increased in cells with greatly elevated expression of scavenger receptors B1, suggesting a possible mechanism of endogenous interaction. The uptake results, obtained by flow cytometry, have been confirmed using Raman microspectroscopic mapping, exploiting the strong Raman signature of graphene.

Abstract
The interaction between individual amino acids and the surface of carboxylate-modified polystyrene nanoparticles in solution was studied using Saturation-Transfer Difference (STD)-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). Individual amino acids were screened for nanoparticle binding using an STD-NMR experiment at a fixed saturation time, and STD buildup curves were measured for those amino acids that exhibited significant STD difference signals in the initial screening. The strongest STD effects were measured for protons of aromatic side chains, with relatively weaker effects observed for protons in long-chain aliphatic and positively charged side chains. This indicates that there are several modes of binding to these polystyrene nanoparticles: electrostatic attraction between the negatively charged surface of the carboxylate-modified polystyrene nanoparticle and positively charged amino acids, hydrophobic effects between long aliphatic side chains and the nanoparticle surface, and π-π interactions between aromatic amino acids and aromatic groups in styrene. This information can be used in future studies to predict and understand interactions between nanoparticle surfaces and specific amino acid residues in small peptides and proteins.

Abstract
The physicochemical properties of a set of 21 different gold nanoparticles (spherical and rod-shaped nanoparticles (NPs) of different diameters with three different surface coatings) were studied. Protein corona formation, in vitro uptake, effect on cell viability and proliferation, and in vivo biodistribution of these NPs were determined. The relation of the results of the different NPs was analyzed by hierarchical cluster analysis, which will tell which NPs have the most similar physicochemical properties and biological effects, without having to specify individual physicochemical parameters. The results show that the physicochemical properties of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) are mainly accounted for by their hydrodynamic diameter and their zeta-potential. The formation of the protein corona is determined by the pH-dependence of their zeta-potential. While several reports found that in vitro uptake and in vivo biodistribution of NPs are correlated to individual physicochemical parameters, e. g., size, shape, or surface chemistry, such direct dependence in the investigated multidimensional set of NPs was not found in our study. This most likely is due to entanglement of the different parameters, which complicates the prediction of the biological effect of NPs in case multiple physicochemical properties are simultaneously varied. The in vitro uptake and in vivo biodistribution of NPs seem to be not directly driven by the protein corona, but the physicochemical properties determine as well the corona as they influence in vitro/ in vivo behaviors, and thus the effect of the protein corona would be rather indirect.

Abstract
Due to the numerous factors (e.g., nanoparticle [NP] properties and experimental conditions) influencing nanotoxicity, it is difficult to identify the priority factors dominating nanotoxicity. Herein, by integrating data from the literature and a random forest model, the priority factors determining reproductive toxicity were successfully screened from highly heterogeneous data. Among 10 factors from more than 18 different NPs, the NP type and the exposure pathway were found to dominantly determine NP accumulation. The reproductive toxicity of various NPs primarily depended on the NP type and the toxicity indicators. Nanoparticles containing major elements (e.g., Zn and Fe) tended to accumulate in rats but induced lower toxicity than NPs containing noble elements. Compared with other exposure pathways, i.p. injection posed significantly higher risks for NP accumulation. By combining similarity network analysis and hierarchical clustering, the sources of highly heterogeneous data were identified, the factor-toxicity dependencies were extracted and visualized, and the prediction of nanotoxicity was then achieved based on the screened priority factors. The present work provides insights for the design of animal experiments and the illustration and prediction of nanotoxicity.
