Abstract
Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs), which belong to the iron-based metal-organic frameworks, are important biomedical agents. Reducing the size of PBNPs can bring improved functional properties, but unfortunately, has been a long-standing challenge. Herein, sub-5 nm ultrasmall PBNPs (USPBNPs) were successfully synthesized by using ethanol/water mixture as the solvent and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as the surface capping agent. Adjusting the ethanol/water ratio is not only able to control the nucleation time and size of PBNPs but also tune the conformation of PVP molecules so as to prevent interparticle attachment and enlargement. At an ethanol/water ratio of 3:1, highly stable USPBNPs with a size of ∼3.4 nm were synthesized. Due to their large specific surface area, they demonstrated high peroxidase-like and catalase-like activities, which outperform PBNPs synthesized by a conventional method. In addition, they also showed a high longitudinal relaxation rate (r1) of 1.3 mM-1 S-1, suggesting their potential to be used as T1 MRI agent.

Abstract
Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) have attracted increasing research interest in immunosensors, bioimaging, drug delivery, and application as therapeutic agents due to their large internal pore volume, tunable size, easy synthesis and surface modification, good thermal stability, and favorable biocompatibility. This review first outlines the effect of tumor markers using PBNPs-based immunosensors which have a sandwich-type architecture and competitive-type structure. Metal ion doped PBNPs which were used as T1-weight magnetic resonance and photoacoustic imaging agents to improve image quality and surface modified PBNPs which were used as drug carriers to decrease side effects via passive or active targeting to tumor sites are also summarized. Moreover, the PBNPs with high photothermal efficiency and excellent catalase-like activity were promising for photothermal therapy and O2 self-supplied photodynamic therapy of tumors. Hence, PBNPs-based multimodal imaging-guided combinational tumor therapies (such as chemo, photothermal, and photodynamic therapies) were finally reviewed. This review aims to inspire broad interest in the rational design and application of PBNPs for detecting and treating tumors in clinical research.

Abstract
Aim: To investigate the effects of the different morphological characteristics of Prussian blue nanoparticles (PB NPs) on their biocompatibility and biosafety. Materials & methods: PB NPs with different sizes, shapes and charges were synthesized and their biosafety and biocompatibility performance were systematically compared in vitro and in vivo. Results: Increased size and positive charge of PB NPs adversely affected cell viability, while improving their peroxidase activity and photothermal conversion efficiency. In vivo analysis demonstrated good biocompatibility of PB NPs, without retention in the organs, but increased size retarded their metabolism. Meanwhile, increased size and positive charge adversely affected hepatic and renal function. Conclusion: This comprehensive exploration of biosafety and biocompatibility provides strong evidences for the use of PB NPs as nanodrug carrier and/or imaging agent.

Abstract
Butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), the primary source of serum cholinesterase activity, is an indispensable biochemical marker for clinical diagnosis of liver function and organophosphorus poisoning. The requirement for bulky and expensive instruments represents a huge hindrance for point-of-care testing (POCT) of BuChE, especially in resource-limited settings. Herein, an easy-operated, economic, and portable photothermal (PT) biosensing platform for high-throughput BuChE detection was rationally designed. BuChE could "light up" the PT signal through in situ generation of Prussian blue (PB) by MIL-53 (Fe), which allowed us to translate biological signals into temperature signals. Such temperature change signals could be monitored at high throughput (six samples for a single measurement) by a miniature self-made integrated PT device via combining separable 96-well plates, a three-dimensional (3D) printed sample bracket, 808 nm lasers, and thermometers, satisfying the requirement for rapid on-site detection in a large batch with low cost. In addition, the large specific surface area, 3D network structure, and high porosity of MIL-53 (Fe) offered a beneficial platform for its reaction with enzymatic hydrolysate, resulting in high sensing sensitivity and low detection limit (0.3 U L-1), which was at least 20 000 times lower than the normal human serum BuChE activity. This facile, affordable, and broad applicability PT sensing platform provides a beneficial reference for the rational design of other disease diagnostic approaches suitable for POCT.

Abstract
(1) Background. The main goal of this work was to develop a fluorescent dye-labelling technique for our previously described nanosized platform, citrate-coated Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles (PBNPs). In addition, characteristics and stability of the PB nanoparticles labelled with fluorescent dyes were determined. (2) Methods. We adsorbed the fluorescent dyes Eosin Y and Rhodamine B and methylene blue (MB) to PB-nanoparticle systems. The physicochemical properties of these fluorescent dye-labeled PBNPs (iron(II);iron(III);octadecacyanide) were determined using atomic force microscopy, dynamic light scattering, zeta potential measurements, scanning- and transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier-transformation infrared spectroscopy. A methylene-blue (MB) labelled, polyethylene-glycol stabilized PBNP platform was selected for further assessment of in vivo distribution and fluorescent imaging after intravenous administration in mice. (3) Results. The MB-labelled particles emitted a strong fluorescent signal at 662 nm. We found that the fluorescent light emission and steric stabilization made this PBNP-MB particle platform applicable for in vivo optical imaging. (4) Conclusion. We successfully produced a fluorescent and stable, Prussian blue-based nanosystem. The particles can be used as a platform for imaging contrast enhancement. In vivo stability and biodistribution studies revealed new aspects of the use of PBNPs.

Abstract
The requirement of on-demand microfluidic pumps and instrument-free readout methods remains a major challenge for the development of microfluidics. Herein, a new type of microfluidic platform, an on-demand photothermal microfluidic pumping platform, has been developed using an on-chip nanomaterial-mediated photothermal effect as novel and remotely tunable microfluidic driving force. The photothermal microfluidic pumping performance can be adjusted remotely by tuning the irradiation parameters, without changing on-chip parameters or replacing enzymes or other reagents. In contrast to graphene oxide, Prussian blue nanoparticles with higher photothermal conversion efficiency were used as the model photothermal agent to demonstrate the proof of concept. The on-chip pumping distance is linearly correlated with both the irradiation time and the nanomaterial concentration. The applications of photothermal microfluidic pumping have been demonstrated in multiplexed on-chip transport of substances, such as gold nanoparticles, and visual quantitative bar-chart detection of cancer biomarkers without using specialized instruments. Upon contact-free irradiation using a laser pointer, a strong on-chip nanomaterial-mediated photothermal effect can serve as a robust and remotely tunable microfluidic pump in a PMMA/PDMS hybrid bar-chart chip to drive ink bars in a visual quantitative readout fashion. This is the first report on a photothermal microfluidic pumping platform, which has great potential for various microfluidic applications.

Abstract
Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) are a nanomaterial that presents unique properties and an excellent biocompatibility. They can be synthesized in mild conditions and can be derivatized with polymers and/or biomolecules. PBNPs are used in biomedicine as therapy and diagnostic agents. In biomedical imaging, PBNPs constitute contrast agents in photoacoustic and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). They are a good adsorbent to be used as antidotes for poisoning with cesium and/or thallium ions. Moreover, the ability to convert energy into heat makes them useful photothermal agents (PAs) in photothermal therapy (PTT) or as nonantibiotic substances with antibacterial properties. Finally, PBNPs can be both reduced to Prussian white and oxidized to Prussian green. A large window of redox potential exists between reduction and oxidation, which result in the enzyme-like characteristics of these NPs.

Abstract
Background and Aims Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has taken an important role in the diagnosis of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). In the wake of current advances in nanotechnology, the drug delivery industry has seen a surge of nanoparticles advertising high specificity in target imaging. Given the rapid development of the field, this review has assembled related articles to explore whether molecular contrast agents can improve the diagnostic capability on gastrointestinal imaging, especially for IBD. Methods Relevant articles published between 1998 and 2018 from a literature search of PubMed and EMBASE were reviewed. Data extraction was performed on the studies' characteristics, experimental animals, modelling methods, nanoparticles type, magnetic resonance methods, and means of quantitative analysis. Results A total of 8 studies were identified wherein the subjects were animals, and all studies employed MR equipment. One group utilized a perfluorocarbon solution and the other 7 groups used either magnetic nanoparticles or gadolinium- (Gd-) related nanoparticles for molecular contrast. With ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (USPIO) particles and Gd-related nanoparticles, signal enhancements were found in the mucosa or with focal lesion of IBD-related model in T1-weighted images (T1WI), whereas superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) particles showed a signal decrease in the intestinal wall of the model in T1WI or T2-weighted images. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was employed to analyze bowel intensity in 3 studies. And the percentage of normalized enhancement was used in 1 study for assessing the severity of inflammation. Conclusion Molecular MRI with contrast agents can improve the early diagnosis of IBD and quantitate the severity of inflammation in experimental studies.

Abstract
The independence of photodynamic or photothermal modality create difficulties in the success of tumor therapy. In this current study, a multifunctional nanotheranostic agent of PDE-Ce6-HA was developed for tumor targeted and MRI-guided photodynamic/photothermal combined therapy (PDT/PTT). For this purpose, the near-infrared-absorbing nanoparticles of prussian blue were coated with polydopamine and successively conjugated with chlorin e6 (Ce6) for reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. The resultant nanoparticles, denoted as PDE-Ce6, were then modified with hyaluronic acid (HA) through electrostatic interaction to yield the final therapeutic agent of PDE-Ce6-HA NPs. PDE-Ce6-HA NPs not only exhibited high colloid stability, good biocompatibility and suitable transverse relaxation rate (0.54 mM-1 s-1), but also high photothermal conversion efficiency (40.4%) and excellent ROS generation efficiency under NIR light irradiation. The confocal microscopy images demonstrated a selective uptake of PDE-Ce6-HA by CD44 overexpressed HeLa cells via HA-mediated endocytosis. Meanwhile, in vitro anti-cancer evaluation verified the significant photodynamic and photothermal combined effects of PDE-Ce6-HA on cancer cells. Moreover, PDE-Ce6-HA led to an increase of T1-MRI contrast in tumor site. Furthermore, in vivo anti-tumor evaluation proved that the PDE-Ce6-HA under both 808 and 670 nm laser showed significantly high tumor growth inhibition effects compared with individual PTT or PDT. Hence, PDE-Ce6-HA is applicable in tumor targeted and MRI-guided photodynamic/photothermal combined treatment.

Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs), as one excellent nanomaterials, have the advantages of good stability, favorable biocompatibility, low cost, easy preparation and controllable shape. PBNPs was found to be of the fluorescence quenching ability to fluorophores, and the adsorption of DNA onto PBNPs surface occurred via the binding of phosphate skeleton in DNA to Fe2+/Fe3+ in PBNPs. On basis of this, carboxyl fluorescein (FAM) modified Aβ40O-targeting aptamer (FAM-AptAβ) was adsorbed onto PBNPs. And FAM-AptAβ@PBNPs-based fluorescent aptasensor for the determination of Aβ40O was developed. Upon incubating FAM-AptAβ@PBNPs with Aβ40O, the fluorescence intensity of the FAM-AptAβ@PBNPs obviously increased comparing to the initial fluorescence intensity of the FAM-AptAβ@PBNPs. The changes in the fluorescence intensity of the FAM-AptAβ@PBNPs were linear with the Aβ40O concentrations ranging from 1.00 nM to 100 nM. Moreover, AD patients and healthy persons can be distinguished using this method to determine Aβ40O concentrations in human cerebrospinal fluid samples from AD patients and healthy persons. It demonstrates that this PBNPs-based aptasensor is not only simple and cost-effective, but also sensitive, selective and more applicable. This fluorescent sensing strategy is promising for the development of aptasensor in clinical fields.

Abstract
We report the postsynthetic functionalization of Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles by two different luminophores (2-aminoanthracene and rhodamine B). We show that the photoluminescence properties of the fluorophores are modified by a confinement effect upon adsorption and demonstrate that such multifunctional nanosized systems could be used for in vitro imaging.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 703:134781. [PMID: 31744698 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.134781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2019] [Revised: 09/24/2019] [Accepted: 10/01/2019] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
As Prussian Blue analogues (PBAs) represent one of the most classical families of coordination compounds and exhibit versatile catalytic activities, PBAs have been considered as useful heterogeneous catalysts for reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP). Nevertheless, while Cu has been a well-proven transition metal for 4-NP reduction, especially, due to their ability to attain pronounced conversions of reactants under mild conditions, environmental friendliness and great stability. Nevertheless, while Cu has been a well-proven transition metal for 4-NP reduction, Cu-based PBA has never been developed and thoroughly investigated for 4-NP reduction. Thus, in this study, copper hexacyanoferrate, CuII3[Fe(CN)6]2 (CuFeCN) is particularly synthesized and proposed for the first time as a catalyst for reduction of 4-NP in the presence of NaBH4. CuFeCN exhibits a very high catalytic activity towards reduction of 4-NP to 4-AP with 100% conversion within 4 min. The activity factor (AF) at room temperature, 8057.14 s-1 g-1, is between 1 and 2 orders higher than all other MFeCN Prussian blue analogues (M = Co, Fe, Ni, Zn, and Mn). In addition, CuFeCN shows excellent reusability to achieve 100% conversion of 4-NP to 4-AP with highly stable rate constants over successive 7 cycles. The activation energy (Ea) and turn over frequency (TOF) for the reduction of 4-NP to 4-AP catalyzed by CuFeCN system are determined as 24.6 kJ mol-1 and 36.93 min-1, respectively, which are both significantly more superior than most of reported catalysts in literatures. These advantageous properties make CuFeCN ideal to be developed into a promising catalyst for elimination of nitroaromatic contaminants in water.

Abstract
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided phototherapy are new breakthroughs in cancer therapeutics due to their complementary advantages, such as enhanced imaging spatial resolution and depth. Herein, we synthesized monodispersed Prussian blue-encapsulated gold nanoparticles (Au@PB NPs), in which the plasmonic gold core plus coordination polymer of cyanide (C[triple bond, length as m-dash]N) and iron ions coincidently become a superexcellent contrast agent for both MRI and zero-background SERS imaging. PB, as a signal source for MR and SERS, can be easily assembled onto single Au NPs, of which iron ions possess high relaxation efficiency for in vivo MRI, e.g., the longitudinal and transversal relaxation efficiency values are 0.86 mM-1 s-1 (r1) and 5.42 mM-1 s-1 (r2), respectively. Furthermore, with the help of the plasmonic enhancement of the gold core, the C[triple bond, length as m-dash]N groups exhibit a specific, strong, and stable (3S) SERS emission in the Raman-silent region (1800-2800 cm-1), allowing accurate in vivo imaging at the single or even subcellular level. More importantly, PB has remarkable absorption properties in the near infrared region, and can be used as a photosensitizer for photothermal (PT) and photodynamic (PD) therapy simultaneously. Hence, the ideal integration of a plasmonic Au core and PB shell into a single monodispersed MR-guided NP, with zero-background SERS signals, is an important candidate for both tumor navigation and in situ PT/PD treatment guided by SERS/MR dual-mode imaging.

Abstract
Nanoparticles play an important role in biomedicine. We have developed a method for size-controlled synthesis of photomagnetic Prussian blue nanocubes (PBNCs) using superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) as precursors. The developed PBNCs have magnetic and optical properties desired in many biomedical diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Specifically, the size-tunable photomagnetic PBNCs exhibit high magnetic saturation, strong optical absorption with a peak at approximately 700 nm, and superior photostability. Our studies demonstrate that PBNCs can be used as MRI and photoacoustic imaging contrast agents in vivo. We also showed the utility of PBNCs for labeling and magnetic manipulation of cells. Dual magnetic and optical properties, together with excellent biocompatibility, render PBNCs an attractive contrast agent for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The use SPIONs as precursors for PBNCs provides flexibility and allows researchers to design theranostic agents according to required particle size, optical, and magnetic properties.

Abstract
Electrochromic windows (ECWs) become an appealing concept for green buildings. However, conventional ECWs need external biases to operate causing energy consumption and are usually restricted by monotonous color. Recently, electrochromic energy storage windows (EESWs) integrating the functions of electrochromism and energy storage in one device have attracted particular attention in various fields, such as self-powered addressable displays, human-readable batteries, and most importantly energy-efficient smart windows. Herein, a color-tunable (nonemissive-red-yellow-green) self-powered EESW is initially presented utilizing Prussian blue (PB) as a controller of the fluorescent component of CdSe quantum dots. The key design feature is that without any external stimuli, the EESW can be powered by a rechargeable "perpetual" battery, which is composed of two half-cell couples of Fe/PB and Prussian white (PW)/Pt. This technique allows to achieve only by switching the connection status of the two half-cells, the fast discharging and self-charging process of the EESWs with high and sustainable charge-storage capacity. Remarkably, the fabricated self-powered EESWs exhibit quick response ("off" 7 s, "on" 50 s), large transmittance spectra contrast, and high fluorescent contrast modulation (60-86%) over a wide optical range, and great reproducibility (only 3% of the modulation ratio decreased after 30 cycles), which is comparable to ECWs powered by an electrochemical potentiostat.

Abstract
Electrode materials are the most significant components of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and play an important role in endowing them with high electrochemical performance. The exploration of new electrode materials and their comparative study with contemporary resources will help the design of advanced electrodes. Here, we have synthesized a new type of Prussian blue analogue (cerium(III) hexacyanocobaltate, CeHCCo) and systematically explored the effect of valence states of Fe2+ and Ce3+ on crystal structure and electrochemical properties of final products. We demonstrate that the unbalanced charge in iron(II) hexacyanocobaltate (FeHCCo), as opposed to that in CeHCCo, results in more residual K+ ions, thereby leading to the occupancy of cavities. As a result, the K+ ion-rich FeHCCo exhibits lower capacities of 55 ± 3 and 15 ± 3 mAh g-1 at 0.1 and 1 A g-1, respectively, compared with the K+ ion-deficient CeHCCo that exhibits capacities of 242 ± 3 and 111 ± 3 mAh g-1 at the same current densities. This work provides a novel contribution for the exploration of new Prussian blue analogues and bestows a newer concept for electrode material design.

Abstract
In the study, folic acid doped Prussian blue nanoparticles (FA-PB NPs) for theranostic applications were synthesized for the first time. Folic acid was chosen for maintaining nanoparticle stability and also to increase its binding affinity especially for cancer cells. Multifunctional PB NPs were fabricated by one route co-precipitation method to synthesize biocompatible NPs without any further process. Then, FA was doped on the surface of PB NPs. The characterization studies demonstrated that the FA-PB NPs modified sensor surface had large surface area with biocompatible and hydrophilic properties where cancer cells can easily bind. The FA-PB NPs were used for the modification of pencil graphite electrode (PGE) for electrochemical detection of colon cancer cells (DLD-1). Electrochemical impedimetric diagnosis was based on the specific interaction between FA groups on the nanoparticles and FA receptors overexpressed on cancer cells. The voltammetric and impedimetric results showed that the FA-PB NPs based electrode had good sensing performance for the immobilized DLD-1 cells.

Abstract
Prussian blue (PB) is known for its multiple applications ranging from fine arts to therapeutics. More recently, PB nanoparticles have been pointed to as appealing photothermal agents (PA) when irradiated with wavelengths corresponding to the biological windows, namely regions located in the near infrared (NIR) zone. In addition, the combination of PB with other components such as phospholipids boosts their therapeutical potential by facilitating, for instance, the incorporation of drugs becoming suitable drug delivery systems. The novelty of the research relies on the synthesis procedure and characterization of hybrid lipid-PB nanoparticles with a high yield in a friendly environment suitable for photothermal therapy. This goal was achieved by first obtaining insoluble PB coated with oleylamine (OA) to facilitate its combination with lipids. The resulting lipid-PB complex showed a monomodal distribution of sizes with an overall size of around 100 nm and a polydispersity index of about 0.200. It highlights one critical step in the synthesis procedure that is the shaking time of the mixture of PB-OA nanoparticles with the lipid, which was found to be 48 h. This time assured homogeneous preparation without the need of further separation stages. Samples were stable for more than three months under several storage conditions.

Abstract
Oxidative stress in cells caused by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a common cause of cell function degeneration, cell death and various diseases. Efficient, robust and inexpensive nanoparticles (nanoenzymes) capable of scavenging/detoxifying ROS even in harsh environments are attracting strong interest. Prussian blue analogues (PBAs), a prominent group of metalorganic nanoparticles (NPs) with the same cyanometalate structure as the traditional and commonly used Prussian blue (PB), have long been envisaged to mimic enzyme activities for ROS scavenging. However, their biological toxicity, especially potential effects on living beings during practical application, has not yet been fully investigated. Here we reveal the enzyme-like activity of FeCo-PBA NPs, and for the first time investigate the effects of FeCo-PBA on cell viability and growth. We elucidate the effect of the nanoenzyme on the ethanol-production efficacy of a typical model organism, the engineered industrial strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We further demonstrate that FeCo-PBA NPs have almost no cytotoxicity on the cells over a broad dosage range (0-100 μg mL-1), while clearly boosting the yeast fermentation efficiency by mitigating oxidative stress. Atmospheric pressure cold plasma (APCP) pretreatment is used as a multifunctional environmental stress produced by the plasma reactive species. While the plasma enhances the cellular uptake of NPs, FeCo-PBA NPs protect the cells from the oxidative stress induced by both the plasma and the fermentation processes. This synergistic effect leads to higher secondary metabolite yields and energy production. Collectively, this study confirms the positive effects of PBA nanoparticles in living cells through ROS scavenging, thus potentially opening new ways to control the cellular machinery in future nano-biotechnology and nano-biomedical applications.

Abstract
Antibacterial treatment is an essential issue in many diverse fields, from medical device treatments (for example prostheses coating) to food preservation. However, there is a need of novel and light-weight materials with high antibacterial efficiency (preferably due to the physical activation). Utilization of photo-thermally active nanoparticles can lead to novel and re-usable materials that can be remotely activated on-demand to thermally eradicate bacteria and mitigate biofilm formation, therefore meeting the above challenge. In this study polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel films containing non-toxic and highly photo-thermally active Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles were fabricated. The confocal microscopy studies indicated a uniform nanoparticle distribution and a low degree of aggregation. Upon near-infrared (NIR; 700 and 800 nm) light irradiation of PVA-PB films, the local temperature increases rapidly and reaches a plateau (up to ΔT ≅ 78 °C), within ≈6-10 s under relatively low laser intensities, I ≅ 0.3 W cm-2. The high and localized increase of temperature on the fabricated films resulted in an efficient antibacterial effect on Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) bacteria. In addition, the localized photo-thermal effect was also sufficient to substantially mitigate biofilms growth.

Abstract
Aim: Prussian blue nanoparticles (PB NPs) have been reported as excellent antioxidant agents owing to their ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species. However, their poor stability in vivo limits their use in biomedical applications. Materials & methods: In this study, we developed chitosan-templated PB NPs using water-soluble chitosan samples with molecular weights ranging from 3 to 100 kDa, which stabilized the PB NPs and improved their antioxidant activity. Results & conclusion: The chitosan-templated PB NPs coordinated with the optimal chitosan molecular weight had uniform sphere-like particles, improved stability and effective scavenging activity of in vitro reactive oxygen species generation in murine fibroblast cells stimulated by oxidative stress agents without any cytotoxicity, implying that they could be promising antioxidant agents.

Abstract
Multiple therapeutic modalities, such as photodynamic (PDT) and photothermal (PTT) therapies, have been jointly applied to produce a synergistic effect for tumor eradication based on the hyperthermia and generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediated by photoactive agents. Effective delivery of highly efficient photosensitizers and photothermal agents is the key for combination of PDT/PTT. Herein, we propose a strategy to functionalize Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles (NPs) with Chlorin e6 (Ce6)-imbedded erythrocyte membrane vesicles. This nanoplatform can address the major issues of these two capable photoactive agents, such as limited biocompatibility, lack of functional chemical groups, and poor bioavailability due to rapid blood clearance or self-aggregation. Specifically, PB NPs were packaged within Ce6-imbedded erythrocyte membrane vesicles, named as PB@RBC/Ce6 NPs, to take advantage of both biological functions of natural erythrocyte membranes and the unique physicochemical properties of synthetic nanoagents. Compared to bare PB NPs or free Ce6, PB@RBC/Ce6 NPs exhibited considerably enhanced cellular uptake and accumulation in tumoral tissues. Moreover, the PB@RBC/Ce6 NP-mediated PDT/PTT combination therapies produced a notable effect in boosting the necrosis and late apoptosis of tumor cells in vitro, and further showed a synergistic therapeutic effect against an orthotopic tumor model in vivo.

Abstract
In order to unravel the relationship between zeta potential values and r2/r1 ratios for contrast agents in MRI application, a series of macroporous Prussian blue cubes were successfully synthesized by HCl etching and used as model samples for relaxivity investigation. It was found that their r2/r1 ratios firstly decreased and then increased with the increasing HCl concentration, while the variation trend for zeta potential is quite the opposite. By employing Gauss fitting and eliminating the HCl concentration in the resultant equations, a relationship between zeta potential values and r2/r1 ratios, i.e. ζ = 229 × (563 -r2/r1)0.012- 267, was finally obtained. This result showed that magnetic resonance imaging relaxivities (viz. r2/r1) could be tailored through altering zeta potential values (surface charges) of the contrast agent.

Abstract
Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) formed with hexacyanide linkers have been studied for decades. The framework crystal structure of PBAs mainly benefits from the six-fold coordinated cyano functional groups. In this study, in-plane tetracyanonickelate was utilized to engineer an organic linker and design a family of four-fold coordinated PBAs (FF-PBAs; Fe2+Ni(CN)4, MnNi(CN)4, Fe3+Ni(CN)4, CuNi(CN)4, CoNi(CN)4, ZnNi(CN)4, and NiNi(CN)4), which showed an interesting two-dimensional (2D) crystal structure. It was found that these FF-PBAs could be utilized as cathode materials of Li-ion batteries, and the Ni/Fe2+ system exhibited superior electrochemical properties compared to the others with a capacity of 137.9 mA h g-1 at a current density of 100 mA g-1. Furthermore, after a 5000-cycle long-term repeated charge/discharge measurement, the Ni/Fe2+ system displayed a capacity of 60.3 mA h g-1 with a coulombic efficiency of 98.8% at a current density of 1000 mA g-1. In addition, the capacity of 86.1% was preserved at 1000 mA g-1 as compared with that at 100 mA g-1, implying a good rate capability. These potential capacities can be ascribed to an in situ reduction of Li+ in the interlayer of Ni/Fe2+ instead of the formation of other compounds with the host material according to ex situ XRD characterization. These specially designed FF-PBAs are expected to inspire new concepts in electrochemistry and other applications requiring 2D materials.

Abstract
Due to the non-targeted release of anti-cancer agent gamabufotalin (CS-6), conventional chemotherapy using this drug can cause serious side effects, which accordingly result in poor therapeutic efficiency. Recently, the development of smart nanodrug systems has attracted more and more attention due to their significant advantages of high loading efficiency, controllable release behavior and targeted accumulation at tumor sites. In this study, a nanodrug system named as HA@RBC@PB@CS-6 NPs (HRPC) was constructed. In this system, Prussian blue nanoparticles (PB NPs) with hollow porous structure were used as the carrier for CS-6 and photothermal sensitizer simultaneously. The result indicated that the encapsulation of erythrocyte membrane on the PB NPs prolonged the blood circulation life to 10 h and improved the immune evasion ability for more than 60%, as well, which is beneficial for the targeting molecule (HA) to achieve high concentration accumulation of HRPCs at tumor sites. Moreover, we also disclosed that loading drug of CS-6 performed its ultra-strong anti-tumor function partly through markedly suppressing the expression of HSP70, which conversely amplified the efficiency of photothermal therapy. The in vivo study demonstrated the outstanding performance of HRPC in synergistic photothermal/chemotherapy of cancer without side effect to normal tissues.

Abstract
Complete tumor regression is a great challenge faced by single therapy of near-infrared (NIR)-triggered hyperthermia or vascular disrupting agents. An injectable nanocomposite (NC) hydrogel is rationally designed for combined anticancer therapy based on NIR-triggered hyperthermia and vascular disruption. The NC hydrogel, codelivered with Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles and combretastatin A4 (CA4), has good shear-thinning, self-recovery, and excellent photothermal properties. Because of the remarkable tumor-site retention and sustained release of CA4 (about 10% over 12 days), the NC hydrogel has a tumor suppression rate of 99.6%. The programmed combinational therapy conveys the concept of "attack + guard", where PB-based NIR irradiation imposes intensive attack on most of cancer cells, and CA4 serves as a guard against the tumor growth by cutting off the energy supply. Moreover, the biosafety and eco-friendliness of the hydrogel platform pave the way toward clinical applications.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is a devastating disease and one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) following ischemic insult is known as a key factor in exacerbating brain damage. Thus, RONS scavengers that can block excessive production of RONS have great therapeutic potential. Herein, we propose an efficient treatment strategy in which an artificial nanozyme with multienzyme activity drives neuroprotection against ischemic stroke primarily by scavenging RONS. Specifically, through a facile, Bi3+-assisted, template-free synthetic strategy, we developed hollow Prussian blue nanozymes (HPBZs) with multienzyme activity to scavenge RONS in a rat model of ischemic stroke. The comprehensive characteristics of HPBZs against RONS were explored. Apart from attenuating oxidative stress, HPBZs also suppressed apoptosis and counteracted inflammation both in vitro and in vivo, thereby contributing to increased brain tolerance of ischemic injury with minimal side effects. This study provides a proof of concept for a novel class of neuroprotective nanoagents that might be beneficial for treatment of ischemic stroke and other RONS-related disorders.

Abstract
Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) are a type of metal–organic framework and have drawn significant attention recently. To date, most are constructed with divalent transition metal ions coordinated to the N end of a cyanide bridge. In this report, we studied a trivalent gallium ion-based Ga hexacyanocobaltate (GaHCCo), which depicted a face-centered cubic crystal structure. In addition, the synthesized GaHCCo was demonstrated as a cathode material of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and was found to exhibit long-term stability, having a capacity retention of 75% after 3000 cycles of repeated charge–discharge cycling and an extremely high coulombic efficiency of 98%, which was achieved because of a solid-state diffusion controlled Li-ion storage process. After ex situ XRD analysis on the different charge stages, the Li-ion storage in the GaHCCo was attributed to the Co species via the formation of a Li/Co compound. This work will pave the way toward the study of PBAs constructed with trivalent metal ions and provide more insights into the development of high-performance LIBs in the future. A newfound Prussian blue analog, gallium hexacyanocobaltate, has been demonstrated as an electrode material for Li-ion storage.![]()

Abstract
A polyol process was applied to the synthesis of Prussian blue nanoparticles that have a narrow size distribution. Potassium hexacyanidoferrate(iii) and iron(iii) nitrate aqueous solutions were introduced into a 50% polyethylene glycol (PEG) aqueous solution under magnetic stirring at 50 °C and reacted for 48 h. The shape of the so-obtained particles was cubic with somewhat rounded edges and the mean size was 70 nm. In the formation process, nanoparticles of Prussian green, which is a partially oxidized state of Prussian blue, were firstly generated via reduction of the precursors by PEG molecules. The Prussian green nanoparticles were then reduced subsequently to Prussian blue nanoparticles. Rate constants for both the reduction steps have been estimated using the time evolution of absorbance. A polyol process using PEG aqueous solution is applicable to synthesize uniform Prussian blue nanoparticles.![]()

Abstract
Compared with other subtypes of breast cancer, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is seriously threatening to human life. Therefore, it is a matter of urgency to develop multifunctional nanoprobes for visualized theranostics of TNBC, achieving specific targeting toward only TNBC, but not other subtypes. Nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) show important potential in visualized theranostics of tumors, but it is critical to synthesize well-defined core-shell MOF-based nanocomposites by encapsulating a single nanoparticle within MOF. In this study, a TNBC-targeted peptide (ZD2)-engineered, and a single gold nanostar (AuNS) coated within MIL-101-NH2 (Fe) by coating MOF with four cycles, obtain well-defined core-shell AuNS@MOF-ZD2 nanocomposites, which are expected to achieve T1 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging and photothermal therapy (PTT) specifically targeting toward TNBC. The prepared AuNS@MOF-ZD2 nanocomposites possess good biocompatibility, efficient T1 -weighted magnetic resonance (MR) relaxivity and stable photothermal conversion ability with an efficiency of 40.5%. The in vitro and in vivo characterizations prove their performances of T1 -weighted MR and PTT with a low power density of 808 nm laser, achieving excellent theranostic efficacy in TNBC. Importantly, it is demonstrated that the prepared AuNS@MOF-ZD2 nanoprobes can specifically target TNBC cells (MDA-MB-231), but not other subtypes of breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-435, MDA-MB-468, and MCF-7), indicating their promising application in visualized theranostics of breast cancers with molecular classification.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been used for the treatment of various human diseases. To better understand the mechanism of this action and the fate of these cells, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been used for the tracking of transplanted stem cells. Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) have been demonstrated to have the ability of labeling cells to visualize them as an effective MRI contrast agent. In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficiency and biological effects of labeled MSCs using PBNPs. We first synthesized and characterized the PBNPs. Then, iCELLigence real-time cell analysis system revealed that PBNPs did not significantly alter cell viability, proliferation, and migration activity in PBNP-labeled MSCs. Oil Red O staining and Alizarin Red staining revealed that labeled MSCs also have a normal differentiation capacity. Phalloidin staining showed no negative effect of PBNPs on the cytoskeleton. Western blot analysis indicated that PBNPs also did not change the expression of β-catenin and vimentin of MSCs. In vitro MRI, the pellets of the MSCs incubated with PBNPs showed a clear MRI signal darkening effect. In conclusion, PBNPs can be effectively used for the labeling of MSCs and will not influence the biological characteristics of MSCs.

Abstract
Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) with favorable biocompatibility and unique properties have captured the attention of extensive biomedical researchers. A great progress is made in the application of PBNPs as therapy and diagnostics agents in biomedicine. This review begins with the recent synthetic strategies of PBNPs and the regulatory approaches for their size, shape, and uniformity. Then, according to the different properties of PBNPs, their application in biomedicine is summarized in detail. With modifiable features, PBNPs can be used as drug carriers to improve the therapeutic efficacy. Moreover, the exchangeable protons and adsorbability enable PBNPs to decontaminate the radioactive ions from the body. For biomedical imaging, photoacoustic and magnetic resonance imaging based on PBNPs are summarized, as well as the strategies to improve the diagnostic effectiveness. The applications related to the photothermal effects and nanoenzyme activities of PBNPs are described. The challenges and critical factors for the clinical translation of PBNPs as multifunctional theranostic agents are also discussed. Finally, the future prospects for the application of PBNPs are considered. The aim of this review is to provide a better understanding and key consideration for rational design of this increasingly important new paradigm of PBNPs as theranostics.

Abstract
Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) are versatile materials with a wide range of applications. Due to their tunability, intrinsic biocompatibility, as well as low toxicity, these nanoscale coordination polymers have been successfully studied as multimodal contrast agents for multiple imaging techniques. Herein, we report the expanded biomedical application of PBAs to X-ray computed tomography (CT). In our systematic study of the series A{MnII[FeIII(CN)6]} (A = K+, Rb+, Cs+), we showed that derivatives incorporating Rb+ and Cs+ ions in the tetrahedral sites of the parent face-centered cubic cyano-bridged networks exhibited substantially increased X-ray attenuation coefficients, thus yielding significant contrast compared to the clinically approved X-ray contrast agent iohexol at the same concentrations. Additionally, our μ-CT studies revealed that these PBAs could be useful as dual-energy CT contrast agents for different biological specimens by using the lower varying scanning X-ray tube voltages. Finally, in vitro studies using U87-Luc cells treated with PBAs, including cellular CT imaging and bioluminescence cell viability assays, revealed that PBAs were taken up by the glioblastoma cells, with moderate biocompatibility at concentrations below the mM range.

Abstract
Temperature is a critical extrinsic physical parameter that determines cell fate. Hyperthermia therapy has become an efficient treatment for tumor ablation. To understand the response of tumor cells under thermal shocks, we present a paper-based photothermal array that can be conveniently coupled with commercial 96-well cell culture plates. This paper chip device was fabricated in one step using Parafilm® and Kimwipers® based on a heat lamination strategy. Liquid was completely adsorbed and confined within the cellulose fibres of hydrophilic regions. Then, Prussian blue nanoparticles (PB NPs) as the photothermal initiator were introduced into the loading wells, and thermal energy was generated via near infrared (NIR) laser irradiation. After assembling the paper device with a 96-well plate, the temperature of each well could be individually controlled by varying the loading amount of PB NPs and laser irradiation time. As a proof-of-concept study, the effects of local thermal shocks on HeLa cells were investigated using MTT cell viability assay and Live/Dead cell staining. The variation of cell viability could be monitored in situ with controllable temperature elevation. The proposed paper photothermal array loaded with thermal initiators represents an enabling tool for investigating the hyperthermia responses of biological cells. Moreover, the facile fabrication technique for paper patterning is advantageous for customizing high-throughput microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) with extremely low cost.

Abstract
This review outlines recently developed Prussian blue nanoparticle (PB NPs)-based multimodal imaging-guided chemo-photothermal strategies for cancer diagnosis and treatment in order to provide insight into the future of the field. The primary limitation of existing therapeutics is the lack of selectivity in drug delivery: they target healthy and cancerous cells alike. In this paper, we provide a thorough review of diverse synthetic and surface engineering techniques for PB NP fabrication. We have elucidated the various targeting approaches employed to deliver the therapeutic and imaging ligands into the tumor area, and outlined methods for enhancement of the tumor ablative ability of the NPS, including several important combinatorial approaches. In addition, we have summarized different in vitro and in vivo effects of PB NP-based therapies used to overcome both systemic and tumor-associated local barriers. An important new approach - PB NP-based immune drug delivery, which is an exciting and promising strategy to overcome cancer resistance and tumor recurrence - has been discussed. Finally, we have discussed the current understanding of the toxicological effects of PB NPs and PB NP-based therapeutics. We conclude that PB NP-based multimodal imaging-guided chemo-photothermal therapy offers new treatment strategies to overcome current hurdles in cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Prussian blue (PB) is a coordination polymer studied since the early 18th century, historically known as a pigment. PB can be prepared in colloidal form with a straightforward synthesis. It has a strong charge-transfer absorption centered at ~700 nm, with a large tail in the Near-IR range. Irradiation of this band results in thermal relaxation and can be exploited to generate a local hyperthermia by irradiating in the so-called bio-transparent Near-IR window. PB nanoparticles are fully biocompatible (PB has already been approved by FDA) and biodegradable, this making them ideal candidates for in vivo use. While papers based on the imaging, drug-delivery and absorbing properties of PB nanoparticles have appeared and have been reviewed in the past decades, a very recent interest is flourishing with the use of PB nanoparticles as photothermal agents in biomedical applications. This review summarizes the syntheses and the optical features of PB nanoparticles in relation to their photothermal use and describes the state of the art of PB nanoparticles as photothermal agents, also in combination with diagnostic techniques.

Abstract
Design and development of photosensitizers that can efficiently convert energy of near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation are of major importance for cancer photoassisted therapeutics. Herein, for the first time, it is demonstrated that Prussian blue (PB), a classic coordination compound, can act as a novel photosensitizer with efficient generation of singlet oxygen and excellent photothermal conversion via NIR photoirradiation-induced energy transfer. After modification with hyaluronic acid (HA), the as-prepared HA-modified PB nanocubes (HA@PB) are highly dispersible in aqueous and physiological solutions, as well as show excellent photothermal/photodynamic activities under NIR (808 nm) photoexcitation. On the basis of these features, HA@PB is used to study their in vitro and in vivo combined therapeutic effect. Owing to the CD44 ligand of HA, HA@PB have specific uptake by CD44-positive cells in vitro and can be precisely in vivo delivered to the tumor site. HA@PB as one of the synergistically photodynamic/photothermal combination nanoplatforms could achieve excellent therapeutic efficacy with targeted specificity under the guidance of dual-modality photoacoustic/infrared thermal imaging. Hence, this work is expected to pave the way for using PB-based nanomaterials as a promising multifunctional theranostic nanoplatform in biomedical fields.

Abstract
Here we demonstrate for the first time that Mn2+-doped Prussian blue nanoparticles of c.a. 70 nm act as effective agents for photothermal therapy under two-photon excitation with an almost total eradication of malignant cells (97 and 98%) at a concentration of 100 μg mL-1 24 h after NIR excitation. This effect combined with interesting longitudinal NMR relaxivity values offer new perspectives for effective imaging and cancer treatment.
