Abstract
Photodynamic therapy is a technique already used in ophthalmology or oncology. It is based on the local production of reactive oxygen species through an energy transfer from an excited photosensitizer to oxygen present in the biological tissue. This review first presents an update, mainly covering the last five years, regarding the block copolymers used as nanovectors for the delivery of the photosensitizer. In particular, we describe the chemical nature and structure of the block copolymers showing a very large range of existing systems, spanning from natural polymers such as proteins or polysaccharides to synthetic ones such as polyesters or polyacrylates. A second part focuses on important parameters for their design and the improvement of their efficiency. Finally, particular attention has been paid to the question of nanocarrier internalization and interaction with membranes (both biomimetic and cellular), and the importance of intracellular targeting has been addressed.

Abstract
Some heptamethine cyanine dyes accumulate in solid tumors in vivo and persist there for several days. The reasons why they accumulate and persist in tumors were incompletely defined, but explanations based on uptake into cancer cells via organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) have been widely discussed. All cyanine-based "tumor-seeking dyes" have a chloride centrally placed on the heptamethine bridge (a "meso-chloride"). We were intrigued and perplexed by the correlation between this particular functional group and tumor uptake, so the following study was designed. It features four dyes (1-Cl, 1-Ph, 5-Cl, and 5-Ph) with complementary properties. Dye 1-Cl is otherwise known as MHI-148, and 1-Ph is a close analog wherein the meso-chloride has been replaced by a phenyl group. Data presented here shows that both 1-Cl and 1-Ph form noncovalent adducts with albumin, but only 1-Cl can form a covalent one. Both dyes 5-Cl and 5-Ph have a methylene (CH2) unit replaced by a dimethylammonium functionality (N+Me2). Data presented here shows that both these dyes 5 do not form tight noncovalent adducts with albumin, and only 5-Cl can form a covalent one (though much more slowly than 1-Cl). In tissue culture experiments, uptake of dyes 1 is more impacted by the albumin in the media than by the pan-OATP uptake inhibitor (BSP) that has been used to connect uptake of tumor-seeking dyes in vivo with the OATPs. Uptake of 1-Cl in media containing fluorescein-labeled albumin gave a high degree of colocalization of intracellular fluorescence. No evidence was found for the involvement of OATPs in uptake of the dyes into cells in media containing albumin. In an in vivo tumor model, only the two dyes that can form albumin adducts (1-Cl and 5-Cl) gave intratumor fluorescence that persisted long enough to be clearly discerned over the background (∼4 h); this fluorescence was still observed at 48 h. Tumors could be imaged with a higher contrast if 5-Cl is used instead of 1-Cl, because 5-Cl is cleared more rapidly from healthy tissues. Overall, the evidence is consistent with in vitro and in vivo results and indicates that the two dyes in the test series that accumulate in tumors and persist there (1-Cl and 5-Cl, true tumor-seeking dyes) do so as covalent albumin adducts trapped in tumor tissue via uptake by some cancer cells and via the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect.

Abstract
Biomimetic design has been extensively investigated. The only FDA-approved biomimetic albumin-bound paclitaxel may not be beneficial to some treated patients due to rapid dissociation upon intravenous infusion and no substantial improvement in the drug's pharmacokinetics or biodistribution. Herein, we developed an alternative and injectable preformed albumin-bound anticancer drug delivery. We combined HSA, Kolliphor HS 15 (HS15), and pirarubicin (THP) via purely physical forces in a thin-film hydration method to obtain an albumin-bound complex of HSA-THP. The lack of any chemical reactions preserves HSA bioactivity, in contrast to the destroyed secondary structure within AN-THP (albumin nanoparticle of THP) for the harsh manipulation during preparation. In vitro, HSA-THP showed a significantly higher cellular uptake efficiency than THP, and the complex was more cytotoxic. In vivo, HSA-THP showed longer half-life than THP. It also exhibited greater tumor accumulation and tumor penetration via gp60- and SPARC-mediated biomimetic transport than THP and AN-THP. As a result, HSA-THP showed strong antitumor and antimetastasis efficacy, with relatively little toxicity. These results suggest the clinical potential of biomimetic tumor-targeted drug delivery.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy including adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) is widely used in the clinic and is highly beneficial for patients with hematological malignancies; however, it remains a challenge to develop effective immunotherapy strategies for the treatment of solid cancers, due to the inefficiency of the immune response and the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Immunogenic cell death (ICD) converts dying cancer cells into a therapeutic vaccine and stimulate a systemic antigen-specific antitumor immune response, which can effectively subvert the immunosuppressive TME and enhance the efficiency of immune responses, relative to conventional immunotherapeutic regimens. However, the application of traditional inducers of ICD in anti-cancer immunotherapy has been limited because of low levels of ICD induction and a lack of tumor-targeting accumulation. Mitochondria are important for tumor-targeting strategies and have emerged as organelles with key roles in the immune system. We hypothesized that the alteration of mitochondria in cancer cells could be an important target for the development of an efficient ICD inducer for use in cancer immunotherapy. Here, we report the evaluation of a mitochondria-targeted small molecule, IR-780, that acts as an ICD inducer and exhibits exceptional antineoplastic activity. IR-780 specifically accumulated in tumor cells to elicit ICD in vitro and in vivo, effectively suppressed tumor growth and lung metastasis, and enhanced adoptive T-cell therapy effects against solid tumors in mouse models. These anticancer effects were linked to dendritic cell maturation and synergistic effector T cell priming and infiltration into tumors. The underlying mechanism involves the direct targeting of the mitochondria by IR-780, to destroy cancer cells, including drug-resistant cancer cells, leading to the full exposure of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), thereby enhancing antigen-specific antitumor immune responses. These features of IR-780 suggest that it has the advantage of leading to complete TAA exposure and the stimulation of efficient antitumor immune responses in the TME. IR-780 has potential for use as a preparative ICD inducer, in combination with conventional immunostimulatory regimens for cancer immunotherapy, particularly in the context of solid tumor treatment.

Abstract
A recent breakthrough in the discovery of thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters characterized by small single-triplet energy offsets (ΔEST) offers a wealth of new opportunities to exploit high-performance metal-free photosensitizers. In this report, two intrinsically cancer-mitochondria-targeted TADF emitters-based nanoparticles (TADF NPs) have been developed for two-photon-activated photodynamic therapy (PDT) and fluorescence imaging. The as-prepared TADF NPs integrate the merits of (1) high 1O2 quantum yield of 52%, (2) sufficient near-infrared light penetration depth due to two-photon activation, and (3) excellent structure-inherent mitochondria-targeting capabilities without extra chemical or physical modifications, inducing remarkable endogenous mitochondria-specific reactive oxygen species production and excellent cancer-cell-killing ability at an ultralow light irradiance. We believe that the development of such intrinsically multifunctional TADF NPs stemming from a single molecule will provide new insights into exploration of novel PDT agents with strong photosensitizing ability for various biomedical applications.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) show great promise to be exploited as versatile multifunctional nanocarriers for effective cancer diagnosis and treatment. In this work, perfluorohexane (PFH)-encapsulated MSNs with indocyanine green (ICG)-polydopamine (PDA) layer and poly(ethylene glycol)-folic acid coating (designated as MSNs-PFH@PDA-ICG-PEG-FA) are successfully fabricated to achieve tumor ultrasonic (US)/near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging as well as photothermal therapy (PTT)/photodynamic therapy (PDT). MSNs-PFH@PDA-ICG-PEG-FA exhibits good monodispersity with high ICG loading, significantly enhances ICG photostability, and greatly improves cellular uptake. Upon single 808 nm NIR irradiation, the nanocarrier not only efficiently generates hyperthermia to realize PTT, but also produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) for effective PDT. Meanwhile, NIR irradiation can trigger PFH to undergo vaporization and provide a super-resolution US image. Thus, the PTT/PDT combination therapy can be dually guided by PFH-induced US imaging and ICG-induced NIRF imaging. In vivo antitumor studies demonstrate that PTT/PDT from MSNs-PFH@PDA-ICG-PEG-FA significantly inhibits tumor growth and achieves a cure rate of 60% (three out of five mice are completely cured). Hence, the multifunctional MSNs appear to be a promising theragnostic nanoplatform for multimodal cancer imaging and therapy.

Abstract
The multifunctional effect of a single molecule for therapeutic functionalities on a single theranostic nanosystem has a great significance to enhance the accuracy of diagnosis and improve the efficacy of therapy. Herein, a biocompatible multistep phototherapeutic system (Ppa-Cy7-PEG-biotin) that contains a photosensitizer pyropheophorbide A (Ppa) with the covalent conjunction of a near-infrared (NIR) cyanine dye (Cy7) was successfully fabricated and functionalized with biotin for flexible specific tumor-targeting phototherapy. These theranostic micelles will disaggregate after NIR irradiation via the photodegradation of cyanine accompanied by the photothermal conversion and the optically controlled release for the restoration of photodynamic function of quenched Ppa. Consecutively, promoted treatments of photosensitive molecules greatly prolonged the tumor retention time and treatment efficiency, having a multistep antitumor effect both in vitro and in vivo. Different from the simple phototherapeutic configurations that only act on the superficial areas of tumors at mild doses, the multistep therapy can be competent for broadly damaging the superficial and deeper regions of tumors at the same dose. Therefore, as opposed to the general combination phototherapeutic approach, this strategy presents a photoactivation-based multistep phototheranostic platform with an enormous potential in enhanced combined phototherapy for cancer.

Abstract
Although near-infrared (NIR)-light-mediated photothermal thrombolysis has been investigated to overcome the bleeding risk of clinical clot-busting agents, the secondary embolism of post-phototherapy fragments (>10 µm) for small vessels should not be ignored in this process. In this study, dual-modality photothermal/photodynamic thrombolysis is explored using targeting nanoagents with an emphasis on improving biosafety as well as ameliorating the thrombolytic effect. The nanoagents can actively target glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptors on thrombus to initiate site-specific thrombolysis by hyperthermia and reactive oxygen species under NIR laser irradiation. In comparison to single photothermal thrombolysis, an 87.9% higher re-establishment rate of dual-modality photothermal/photodynamic thrombolysis by one-time treatment is achieved in a lower limb thrombosis model. The dual-modality thrombolysis can also avoid re-embolization after breaking fibrin into tiny fragments. All the results show that this strategy is a safe and validated protocol for thrombolysis, which fits the clinical translational trend of nanomedicine.

Abstract
The ultimate goal of cancer therapy is to eliminate malignant tumors while causing no damage to normal tissues. In the past decades, numerous nanoagents have been employed for cancer treatment because of their unique properties over traditional molecular drugs. However, lack of selectivity and unwanted therapeutic outcomes have severely limited the therapeutic index of traditional nanodrugs. Recently, a series of nanomaterials that can accumulate in specific organelles (nucleus, mitochondrion, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosome, Golgi apparatus) within cancer cells have received increasing interest. These rationally designed nanoagents can either directly destroy the subcellular structures or effectively deliver drugs into the proper targets, which can further activate certain cell death pathways, enabling them to boost the therapeutic efficiency, lower drug dosage, reduce side effects, avoid multidrug resistance, and prevent recurrence. In this Review, the design principles, targeting strategies, therapeutic mechanisms, current challenges, and potential future directions of organelle-targeted nanomaterials will be introduced.

Abstract
Background: Engineering a single organic-molecule-based nanoparticle integrating precise diagnosis and effective therapy is of great significance for cancer treatment and future clinical applications but remains a great challenge. The goal of this study is to explore small organic molecule-based nanoparticles with high photothermal conversion efficiency for photoacoustic imaging-guided therapy. Methods: Heptacyclic B, O-chelated BODIPY structure (namely Boca-BODIPY) with strong near-infrared (NIR) absorption was designed as a theranostic agent through simply molecular engineering, in which heavy atoms and alkyl chains were introduced to promote its application for tumor theranostics. The Boca-BODIPY molecules are further encapsulated in reduced bovine serum albumin (BSA) through self-assembly. Results: The BSA-Boca-BODIPY exhibited excellent biocompatibility, extraordinary stability and high photothermal conversion efficiency up to 58.7%. The nanoparticles could dramatically enhance photoacoustic contrast of the tumor region, and the signal-to-noise ratio was increased about 14 times at 10 h post intravenous injection in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice. In addition, the nanoassemblies can efficiently convert laser energy (808 nm, 0.75 w cm-2, 5min) into hyperthermia for tumor ablation. Under the photoacoustic imaging-guided photothermal therapy (PTT), the 4T1 cancer cells were efficiently killed, no tumor recurrence and PTT-induced toxicity is observed. Conclusions: Molecular engineering is a promising way to design organic-molecule-based nanoparticles for cancer theranostics. Other organic-molecule-based nanoparticles which show great promise for imaging-guided cancer precision therapy can be engineered through this method.

Abstract
Theranostics nanoplatforms offer opportunities for imaging-guided precision therapy and hold great potential for clinical applications. In most reported works, the imaging unit has a lack of site selectivity, and is always kept in the "on" modality regardless of whether it is in normal tissues or tumor sites, increasing the risk of unsafe treatment. Herein, we designed a near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence-guided theranostics nanoplatform by integrating the functions of tumor-response and photodynamic therapy (PDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT). A novel NIR fluorescent dye, CyPT, with excellent optical and PDT/PTT properties, was synthesized and linked onto the gold nanorods (AuNRs) to form CyPT-AuNRs nanohybrids via a sulfur-sulfur bond that can be broken by glutathione (GSH) with high selectivity and sensitivity. In normal cells where the concentration of GSH is low, the fluorescence of CyPT is quenched by the AuNRs. By contrast, the high level of GSH in tumor cells leads to the breaking of the sulfur-sulfur bond, resulting in the release of CyPT and the accomplishment of a "off-on" fluorescence response. Followed by precise NIR tumor-imaging diagnosis, the PDT and PTT treatment which rely on the released CyPT and AuNRs, respectively, can be effectively performed. The CyPT-AuNRs nanoplatform has been successfully applied to the treatment of tumor xenograft models and no distinct damage has been observed in the nearby normal tissues. This versatile nanoplatform has potential for use in targeted tumor imaging and precision therapy.

Abstract
The preparation and photophysical properties of two heavier main group element analogues of boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) chromophores are described. Specifically, we have prepared dipyrrin complexes of dichlorogallate (GADIPY) or phenylphosphenium (PHODIPY) units. Whereas cationic PHODIPY is labile, decomposing to a phosphine over time, GADIPY is readily prepared in good yield as a crystalline solid having moderate air- and water-stability. Crystallographically characterized GADIPY displays intense green photoluminescence (λem = 505 nm, Φem = 0.91 in toluene). These inaugural heavier main group element analogues of BODIPY offer a glimpse into the potential for elaboration to a panoply of chromophores with diverse photophysical properties.

Abstract
The development of versatile antitumor agents with tumor-imaging, targeting and therapeutic activity is promising for clinical cancer therapy. Prostate cancer is still the one of the leading threats to males. Current therapies have restricted clinical efficiency for patients with advanced and metastatic prostate cancer. Recent studies demonstrate that monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) levels elevate with prostate cancer aggression and metastasis. In addition, MAOA inhibitor therapies have been reported as an effective means to reduce the metastasis of prostate cancer and extend mouse survival. Thus, these findings provide evidence that MAOA is promising for the treatment of metastatic and advanced prostate cancer. Herein, three isoniazid (INH)-dye conjugates were synthesized by conjugating MAOA inhibitor INH with mitochondria-targeting NIRF heptamethine dyes to improve the therapeutic efficacy of prostate cancer. These INH-dye conjugates could accumulate in PC-3 cellular mitochondria via organic anion transport peptide (OATP), increase ROS generation, and induce cancer cells apoptosis. In prostate cancer bearing xenografts, INH-dye conjugates showed significantly improved tumor-homing characteristics, resulting in potent antitumor activity via a reduction in MAOA activity. These results suggest that INH-dye conjugates have great potential to be used as versatile antitumor agents with prostate cancer targeting, NIR imaging, and potent antitumor efficacy.

Abstract
The vigorous development of nanotechnology has been accompanied by an equally strong interest and research efforts in nano-based drug delivery systems (NDDSs). However, only a few NDDSs have been translated into clinic thus far. One of the important hurdles is the lack of tools to comprehensively and directly trace the biological fate of NDDSs. Recently, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorophores have emerged as attractive bioimaging tools due to flexible controllability, negligible toxicity and superior photostability. Herein, we recapitulate the current advances in the application of AIE fluorophores to monitor NDDSs both in vitro and in vivo. Particularly, we discuss the cellular fates of self-indicating and stimuli-responsive NDDSs with AIE fluorophores. Moreover, we highlight the in vivo application of AIE agents on the long-term tracking of therapeutics and the multi-modal monitoring of diagnostics in NDDSs. Challenges and opportunities in AIE-guided exploration of NDDSs are also discussed in detail.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT), a promising alternative for cancer therapy, utilizes a sonosensitizer combined with ultrasound (US) irradiation to damage tumor cells/tissues for therapeutic purposes. The ability of sonosensitizers to specifically accumulate in tumor cells/tissues could greatly influence their therapeutic efficiency. In this work, we report the use of US-activated sonosensitizer (IR780)-based nanodroplets (IR780-NDs) for SDT, which provide numerous benefits for killing cancer cells compared with traditional methods. For instance, IR780-NDs showed effective surface-to-core diffusion both in vitro and in vivo. In the presence of US, the acoustic droplet vaporization (ADV) effect significantly assisted the conveyance of IR780-NDs from the circulatory system to tumor regions, and the acoustic wave force also increased the penetration depth within tumor tissues. Furthermore, IR780-NDs possesses mitochondrial targeting capabilities, which improves the precision and accuracy of SDT delivery. During the in vitro assessment, the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was observed following mitochondrial targeting, which rendered cancer cells more susceptible to ROS-induced apoptosis. Additionally, IR780-ND is a suitable candidate for photoacoustic and fluorescence imaging and can also enhance US imaging because of the ADV-generated bubbles, which provides the potential for SDT guidance and monitoring. Therefore, with combined modalities, IR780-NDs can be a promising theranostics nanoplatform for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Serious side effects to surrounding normal tissues and unsatisfactory therapeutic efficacy hamper the further clinic applications of conventional cancer-therapeutic strategies, such as chemotherapy and surgery. The fast development of nanotechnology provides unprecedented superiorities for cancer therapeutics. Externally activatable therapeutic modalities mediated by nanomaterials, relying on highly effective energy transformation to release therapeutic elements/effects (cytotoxic reactive oxygen species, thermal effect, photoelectric effect, Compton effect, cavitation effect, mechanical effect or chemotherapeutic drug) for cancer therapies, categorized and termed as "energy-converting nanomedicine," have arouse considerable concern due to their noninvasiveness, desirable tissue-penetration depth, and accurate modulation of therapeutic dose. This review summarizes the recent advances in the engineering of intelligent functional nanotherapeutics for energy-converting nanomedicine, including photo-based, radiation-based, ultrasound-based, magnetic field-based, microwave-based, electric field-based, and radiofrequency-based nanomedicines, which are enabled by external stimuli (light, radiation, ultrasound, magnetic field, microwave, electric field, and radiofrequency). Furthermore, biosafety issues of energy-converting nanomedicine related to future clinical translation are also addressed. Finally, the potential challenges and prospects of energy-converting nanomedicine for future clinical translation are discussed.

Abstract
Responsive drug release in tumor mitochondria is a pre-requisite for mitochondria-targeted drug delivery systems to improve the efficacy of this promising therapeutic modality. To this end, a photothermal stimulation strategy for mitochondria-responsive drug release along with heat shock is developed to maximize the antitumor effects with minimal side effects. Methods: This strategy relies on mitochondrial-targeted delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) through a photothermal and lipophilic agent IR-780 iodide (IR780)-modified glycolipid conjugates (CSOSA), which can synergistically triggers high-level reactive oxygen species (ROS) to kill tumor cells. Results: Specifically, upon laser irradiation, the photothermal conversion by IR780-CSOSA can not only weaken the hydrophobic interaction between the core of micelles and DOX and trigger unexpected micelle swelling to release DOX in mitochondria for the amplification of ROS, but also induce mitochondria-specific heat shock to promote the fast evolution of ROS at the same locus to eradicate cancer cells in a more effective way. Furthermore, IR780-CSOSA micelles may independently realize the real-time diagnosis and imaging on multiple tumor models. Deep penetration into tumors by IR780-CSOSA/DOX micelles can be manipulated under laser irradiation. Conclusion: Such multifunctional IR780-CSOSA/DOX micelles with integration of mitochondria-responsive drug release and heat shock are demonstrated to be superior to the non-mitochondria-responsive therapy. This study opens up new avenues for the future cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Various nanoformulations of perfluorocarbon have been developed thus far, to achieve ultrasound imaging of tumors and tumor-targeted therapy. However, their application has been greatly limited by their short sonographic duration and large size distribution. A novel theranostic agent was constructed based on gold nanoshell cerasome-encapsulated L-menthol (GNC-LM). Owing to the sustained and controllable generation of L-menthol bubbles under near-infrared laser irradiation, GNC-LM showed good performance in contrast enhancement of ultrasound imaging in vivo. GNC-LM could be imaged for 30 min, which is much longer than the imaging time of SonoVue (commercially used microbubbles). Moreover, photothermal therapy (PTT) based on the light-to-heat conversion of the nanosystem effectively ablated the tumor. Our study demonstrated the promising potential of the obtained GNC-LM to serve as a therapeutic nanoprobe for ultrasound contrast imaging and PTT of tumors.

Abstract
Recently, diverse functional materials that take subcellular structures as therapeutic targets are playing increasingly important roles in cancer therapy. Here, particular emphasis is placed on four kinds of therapies, including chemotherapy, gene therapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT), and hyperthermal therapy, which are the most widely used approaches for killing cancer cells by the specific destruction of subcellular organelles. Moreover, some non-drug-loaded nanoformulations (i.e., metal nanoparticles and molecular self-assemblies) with a fatal effect on cells by influencing the subcellular functions without the use of any drug molecules are also included. According to the basic principles and unique performances of each treatment, appropriate strategies are developed to meet task-specific applications by integrating specific materials, ligands, as well as methods. In addition, the combination of two or more therapies based on multifunctional nanostructures, which either directly target specific subcellular organelles or release organelle-targeted therapeutics, is also introduced with the intent of superadditive therapeutic effects. Finally, the related challenges of critical re-evaluation of this emerging field are presented.

Abstract
Integration of multiple diagnostic/therapeutic modalities into a single system with ultrasmall size, excellent photothermal/photodynamic properties, high cellular uptake efficiency, nuclear delivery capacity, rapid renal clearance, and good biosafety is highly desirable for cancer theranostics, but still remains challenging. Here, a novel type of multifunctional nanodots (denoted as BCCGH) was synthesized by mixing bovine serum albumin, carbon dots, and metal ions (Cu2+ and Gd3+), followed by the conjugation with a photosensitizer (HPPH). The nanodots hold great promise for fluorescence/photoacoustic/magnetic resonance/photothermal imaging-guided synergistic photothermal/photodynamic therapy (PDT) because of their appealing properties such as high photothermal conversion efficiency (68.4%), high longitudinal relaxivity (11.84 mM-1 s-1, 7 T), and superior colloidal stability with negligible Gd3+ release. Benefiting from the massive cellular uptake, endoplasmic reticulum/mitochondrion-targeting ability, and mild near-infrared laser irradiation-promoted nuclear delivery of BCCGH, a high anticancer therapeutic efficiency is achieved in the subsequent in vitro PDT. Besides, as revealed by the in vivo/ex vivo results, the nanodots also exhibit excellent tumor accumulation, efficient renal clearance, complete tumor ablation, and exceptional biosafety. To summarize, this work develops a carbon dot-mediated and albumin-based synthetic approach for constructing ultrasmall and multifunctional nanodots, which may hold great potential for cancer theranostics and beyond.

Abstract
Mitochondria-targeted cancer phototherapy (PT), which works by delivering photoresponsive agents specifically to mitochondria, is a powerful strategy to improve the phototherapeutic efficiency of anticancer treatments. Mitochondria play an essential role in cellular apoptosis, and are relevant to the chemoresistance of cancer cells. Furthermore, mitochondria are a major player in many cellular processes and are highly sensitive to hyperthermia and reactive oxygen species. Therefore, mitochondria serve as excellent locations for organelle-targeted phototherapy. In this review, we focus on the recent advances of mitochondria-targeting materials for mitochondria-specific PT. The combination of mitochondria-targeted PT with other anticancer strategies is also summarized. In addition, we discuss both the challenges currently faced by mitochondria-based cancer PT and the promises it holds.

Abstract
Selective delivery of photosensitizers to mitochondria of cancer cells can enhance the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT). Though cationic Ru-based photosensitizers accumulate in mitochondria, they require excitation with less penetrating short-wavelength photons, limiting their application in PDT. We recently discovered X-ray based cancer therapy by nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (nMOFs) via enhancing radiotherapy (RT) and enabling radiodynamic therapy (RDT). Herein we report Hf-DBB-Ru as a mitochondria-targeted nMOF for RT-RDT. Constructed from Ru-based photosensitizers, the cationic framework exhibits strong mitochondria-targeting property. Upon X-ray irradiation, Hf-DBB-Ru efficiently generates hydroxyl radicals from the Hf6 SBUs and singlet oxygen from the DBB-Ru photosensitizers to lead to RT-RDT effects. Mitochondria-targeted RT-RDT depolarizes the mitochondrial membrane to initiate apoptosis of cancer cells, leading to significant regression of colorectal tumors in mouse models. Our work establishes an effective strategy to selectively target mitochondria with cationic nMOFs for enhanced cancer therapy via RT-RDT with low doses of deeply penetrating X-rays.

Abstract
Nanoparticles activated by near-infrared (NIR) excitation provide a capability for optical imaging and photodestruction of tumors. We have engineered optical nanoconstructs derived from erythrocytes, which are doped with the FDA-approved NIR dye, indocyanine green (ICG). We refer to these constructs as NIR erythrocyte-mimicking transducers (NETs). Herein, we investigate the phototheranostic capabilities of NETs for fluorescence imaging and photodestruction of SKBR3 breast cancer cells and subcutaneous xenograft tumors in mice. Our cellular studies demonstrate that NETs are internalized by these cancer cells and localized to their lysosomes. As evidenced by NIR fluorescence imaging and in vivo laser irradiation studies, NETs remain available within tumors at 24 h postintravenous injection. In response to continuous wave 808 nm laser irradiation at intensity of 680 mW/cm2 for 10-15 min, NETs mediate the destruction of cancer cells and tumors in mice through synergistic photochemical and photothermal effects. We demonstrate that NETs are effective in mediating photoactivation of Caspase-3 to induce tumor apoptosis. Our results provide support for the effectiveness of NETs as theranostic agents for fluorescence imaging and photodestruction of tumors and their role in photoinduced apoptosis initiated by their localization to lysosomes.

Abstract
A polyelectrolyte microcapsule-based layer-by-layer (LbL) technique has been widely used as a multifunctional vehicle for combined tumor therapy. Meanwhile, with the rapid development of combined tumour therapy, the challenge for designing multifunctional drug delivery system has attracted much more attention. Herein, we developed a new type of microcapsule (MC) system called MPA@siRNA@DOX@MC, which conjugated with siRNA and DOX as well as ICG-Der-02 (MPA) by electrostatic absorption. MPA as indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence dye, exhibiting high fluorescence emission and photothermal conversion ability under NIR laser irradiation, was uploaded onto this drug system for realizing the controllable drug release and cancer theranostics. In addition, the results revealed that MPA@siRNA@DOX@MC possessed several ideal properties including high drug-loading capacity, excellent siRNA transfection efficiency, siRNA sequence protection and remarkably improved tumour-targeting capacity. Moreover, the combined therapy based on this drug system displayed improved therapeutic efficacy and negligible side effects both in vivo and in vitro experiment. Ultimately, MPA@siRNA@DOX@MC drug delivery system successfully combined the photothermal therapy and chemotherapy with controlled siRNA sequence silencing may have a promising potential in combined tumor therapy.

Abstract
Subcellular organelles, for example, nucleus, mitochondria, and lysosome, are the vital organelles with responsibilities that maintain cell operation and metabolism. Owing to their roles in energy production and programmed cell death, these organelles have become prime therapeutic targets in different diseases and states. In this study, biocompatible, organelle-targeting nanoprobes were developed by modifying gold nanorods (AuNRs) with specific targeting peptides. These nanoprobes were employed to directly profile subcellular biomolecules and vital organelles by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. Macromolecular spectral profiles of subcellular organelles were achieved and compared. Further, these organelle-targeting AuNRs were used for the photothermal treatment of cancer cells (HepG2, HeLa, and MCF-7 cell lines). The cell viability assays show that the nucleus- and mitochondria-targeting AuNRs provide higher photothermal efficiencies under an 808 nm laser relative to the lysosome-targeting ones. This study makes critical insights into the spectral profiles of subcellular organelles and also inspires people in the development of high-efficacy cancer therapeutic strategies by subcellular organelle-targeting drugs.
