Abstract
Polyethyleneimine (PEI) has a good spongy proton effect and is an excellent nonviral gene vector, but its high charge density leads to the instability and toxicity of PEI/DNA complexes. Cell membrane (CM) capsules provide a universal and natural solution for this problem. Here, CM-coated PEI/DNA capsules (CPDcs) were prepared through extrusion, and the extracellular matrix was coated on CPDcs (ECM-CPDcs) for improved targeting. The results showed that compared with PEI/DNA complexes, CPDcs had core-shell structures (PEI/DNA complexes were coated by a 6-10 nm layer), lower cytotoxicity, and obvious homologous targeting. The internalization and transfection efficiency of 293T-CM-coated PEI70k/DNA capsules (293T-CP70Dcs) were 91.8 and 74.5%, respectively, which were higher than those of PEI70k/DNA complexes. Then, the internalization and transfection efficiency of 293T-CP70Dcs were further improved by ECM coating, which were 94.7 and 78.9%, respectively. Then, the internalization and transfection efficiency of 293T-CP70Dcs were further improved by ECM coating, which were 94.7 and 78.9%, respectively. Moreover, the homologous targeting of various CPDcs was improved by ECM coating, and other CPDcs also showed similar effects as 293T-CP70Dcs after ECM coating. These findings suggest that tumor-targeted CPDcs may have considerable advantages in gene delivery.

Abstract
Although photothermal therapy (PTT) has great potential for tumor inhibition, this single mode of action frequently encounters recurrence and metastasis, highlighting the urgent need for developing combination therapy. Inspired by established evidence that PTT could induce efficient immunogenic cell death (ICD), we here developed a versatile biomimetic nanoplatform (denoted as AuDRM) for the synergism of photothermal/starvation/immunotherapy against cancer. Specifically, dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (NPs) were successfully constructed followed by the in situ synthesis of Au NPs in the mesopores. Afterward, a hybrid membrane was coated to facilitate the loading of R837. Upon efficient accumulation in the tumor tissue by homotypic targeting, the pH-sensitive membrane could be jettisoned to ensure the exposure of Au NPs for starvation therapy and the effective release of the immunostimulator R837 for enhancement of immunotherapy. Except for the PTT-mediated tumor ablation, the induction of ICD coupled with the release of tumor antigens could work synergistically with the immunostimulator R837 for inhibiting the primary tumor as well as the metastasis and induce a long-term immune memory effect for tumor inhibition via a vaccine-like function. Thus, this study paves the way for high-performance tumor ablation by the synergism of photothermal/starvation/immunotherapy.

Abstract
Despite enormous advancements in the field of oncology, the innocuous and effectual treatment of various types of malignancies remained a colossal challenge. The conventional modalities such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery have been remained the most viable options for cancer treatment, but lacking of target-specificity, optimum safety and efficacy, and pharmacokinetic disparities are their impliable shortcomings. Though, in recent decades, numerous encroachments in the field of onco-targeted drug delivery have been adapted but several limitations (i.e., short plasma half-life, early clearance by reticuloendothelial system, immunogenicity, inadequate internalization and localization into the onco-tissues, chemoresistance, and deficient therapeutic efficacy) associated with these onco-targeted delivery systems limits their clinical viability. To abolish the aforementioned inadequacies, a promising approach has been emerged in which stealthing of synthetic nanocarriers has been attained by cloaking them into the natural cell membranes. These biomimetic nanomedicines not only retain characteristics features of the synthetic nanocarriers but also inherit the cell-membrane intrinsic functionalities. In this review, we have summarized preparation methods, mechanism of cloaking, and pharmaceutical and therapeutic superiority of cell-membrane camouflaged nanomedicines in improving the bio-imaging and immunotherapy against various types of malignancies. These pliable adaptations have revolutionized the current drug delivery strategies by optimizing the plasma circulation time, improving the permeation into the cancerous microenvironment, escaping the immune evasion and rapid clearance from the systemic circulation, minimizing the immunogenicity, and enabling the cell-cell communication via cell membrane markers of biomimetic nanomedicines. Moreover, the preeminence of cell-membrane cloaked nanomedicines in improving the bio-imaging and theranostic applications, alone or in combination with phototherapy or radiotherapy, have also been pondered.

Abstract
Treatment resistance of the tumors to photodynamic therapy (PDT) owing to O2 deficiency largely compromised the therapeutic efficacy, which could be addressed via modulating oxygen levels by using O2 self-enriched nanosystems. Here, we report on augmenting the O2-evolving strategy based on a biomimetic, catalytic nanovehicle (named as N/P@MCC), constructed by the catalase-immobilized hollow mesoporous nanospheres by enveloping a cancer cell membrane (CCM), which acts as an efficient nanocontainer to accommodate nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs) and protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). Inheriting the virtues of biomimetic CCM cloaking, the CCM-derived shell conferred N/P@MCC nanovehicles with highly specific self-recognition and homotypic targeting toward cancerous cells, ensuring tumor-specific accumulation and superior circulation durations. N-GQDs, for the first time, have been evidenced as a new dual-functional nanoagents with PTT and PDT capacities, enabling the generation of 1O2 for PDT and inducing local low-temperature hyperthermia for thermally ablating cancer cells and infrared thermal imaging (IRT). Leveraging the intrinsic catalytic features of catalase, such N/P@MCC nanovehicles effectively scavenged the excessive H2O2 to sustainably evolve oxygen for a synchronous O2 self-supply and hypoxia alleviation, with an additional benefit because the resulting O2 bubbles could function as an echo amplifier, leading to the sufficient echogenic reflectivity for ultrasound imaging. Concurrently, the elevated O2 reacted with N-GQDs and PpIX to elicit a maximally increased 1O2 output for augmented PDT. Significantly, the ultrasound imaging coupled with fluorescence imaging, IRT, performs a tumor-modulated trimodal bioimaging effect. Overall, this offers a paradigm to rationally explore O2 self-supply strategies focused on versatile nanotheranostics for hypoxic tumor elimination.

Abstract
Nanosuspensions, as a new drug delivery system for insoluble drugs, are only composed of a drug and a small amount of stabilizer, which is dispersed in an aqueous solution with high drug-loading, small particle size, high dispersion, and large specific surface area. It can significantly improve the dissolution, bioavailability, and efficacy of insoluble drugs. In this study, paclitaxel nanosuspensions ((PTX)NS) were prepared by an ultrasonic precipitation method, with the characteristics of simple preparation and easy repetition. With the help of a homologous targeting mechanism, a kind of glioma C6 cancer cell membrane (CCM)-coated (PTX)NS was developed and modified with DWSW peptide to obtain DWSW-CCM-(PTX)NS with the functions of BBB penetration and tumor targeting. The results showed that the cancer cell membrane could effectively camouflage the nanosuspensions so that it was not cleared by the immune system and could cross the blood-brain-barrier (BBB) and selectively target tumor tissues. Cell uptake experiments and in vivo imaging confirmed that the uptake of DWSW-CCM-(PTX)NS by tumor cells and the distribution in intracranial gliomas increased. Cytotoxicity test and in vivo anti-glioma studies showed that DWSW-CCM-(PTX)NS could significantly inhibit the growth of glioma cells and significantly prolong the survival time of glioma-bearing mice. Finally, the cancer cell membrane coating endowed the nanosuspensions with the biological properties of homologous adhesion and immune escape. This study provides an integrated solution for improving the targeting of nanosuspensions and demonstrates the encouraging potential of biomimetic nanosuspensions applicable to tumor therapy. Paclitaxel nanosuspensions with high drug-loading and without carrier. Biomimetic nanosuspensions wrapped by peptide-modified cancer cell membranes. Penetrate BBB and BBTB to transport drugs to glioma. Dual effects of active and homology targeting improve therapeutic efficiency.

Abstract
Synaptic vesicle-inspired nanoparticles (RT-PPB NPs) as a "nanoguard" were designed for clearing the toxic α-synuclein aggregates in diseased neurons and preventing the culprits from escaping to affect other normal cells. The NPs could overcome a series of tissue and cellular barriers and controllably release drugs in the diseased neurons, which ensured the optimization of synergistic treatment. This study indicates that the synaptic vesicle-inspired NPs may have the potential to open up a new avenue for the treatment of synucleinopathies, as well as other neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
The combination of different modalities greatly enhances the anticancer efficacy of each treatment by combining their merits, showing promising potential in clinical translation. Herein, we fabricated cancer cell membrane-coated gold nanorods (GNR@Mem) possessing excellent photothermal transfer ability in the second near-infrared window and radiosensitizing ability under X-ray irradiation. The cancer cell membrane coating endowed the nanomedicine with stability in the physiological environment and selective homotypic targeting to specific cancer cells in vitro. Under NIR light and X-ray irradiation, the gold nanorods induced a temperature increase, reactive oxygen generation, and subsequent damage to the DNA helix structure, leading to enhanced cell apoptosis. Benefitting from its relative long circulation time in the blood and homotypic targeting effect, the tumor accumulation of GNR@Mem significantly increased. The in vivo results demonstrate that the combination of photothermal therapy and radiotherapy effectively suppresses tumor growth without noticeable systemic toxicity.

Abstract
In this paper, a new pH-responsive nanosystem based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) was developed for cancer therapy. Poly(2-(diethylamino) ethyl methacrylate) (PDEAEMA) was grafted on their outer surface and acts as a gatekeeper, followed by subsequent modification of the polymer by cysteine (MSN-PDEAEMA-Cys) and poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) (MSN-PDEAEMA-Cys-POEGMEMA). The physicochemical properties of these nanocarriers were characterized using scanning and transmission electron microscopies (SEM and TEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The synthesized nanoparticles were well-dispersed with a diameter of ca. 200 nm. The obtained XPS results confirm the successful modification of MSN-PDEAEMA with Cys and POEGMEMA by increasing the peak intensity of C-O and C=O groups at 286.5 and 288.5 eV, respectively. An anti-cancer drug, doxorubicin (DOX), was encapsulated into the fabricated nanoplatform. The DOX release amount at physiological pH of 7.4 was limited (10%), while an accumulation drug release of ca. 35% was accomplished after 30 h in acidic media. The MTT cell line was used to assess the cytotoxicity of the unloaded and DOX-loaded fabricated nanoplatforms. Upon loading of DOX on these nanomaterials, they showed significant toxicity to human liver cancer cells. These results suggest that the prepared nano-structured materials showed good biocompatibility as well, and they can serve as nanocarriers for the delivery of anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract
By combining large-scale dissipative particle dynamics and steered molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the mechanochemical cellular internalization pathways of homogeneous and heterogeneous nanohydrogels and demonstrate that membrane internalization is determined by the crosslink density and encapsulation ability of nanohydrogels. The homogeneous nanohydrogels with a high crosslink density and low encapsulation ability behave as soft nanoparticles partially wrapped by the membrane, while those with a low crosslink density and high encapsulation ability permeate into the membrane. Regardless of the crosslink density, the homogeneous nanohydrogels undergo typical dual morphological deformations. The local lipid nanodomains are identified at the contacting region between the membrane and nanohydrogels because of different diffusion behaviors between lipid and receptor molecules during the internalization process. The yolk@shell heterogeneous nanohydrogels present a different mechanochemical cellular internalization pathway. The yolk with strong affinity is directly in contact with the membrane, resulting in partial membrane wrapping, and the contacting area is much reduced when compared to homogenous nanohydrogels, leading to a smaller lipid nanodomain and thus avoiding related cellular toxicity. Our findings provide a critical mechanism understanding of the biological pathways of nanohydrogels and may guide the molecular design of the hydrogel-based materials for controlled release drug delivery, tissue engineering, and cell culture.

Abstract
Targeting mitochondria has always been a challenging goal for therapeutic nanoparticle agents due to their heterotypic features and size, which usually lead to a lysosome/endosome endocytosis pathway. To overcome this limitation, in this work, a portfolio targeting strategy combining a small targeting molecule with a biomembrane was developed. Modification of small targeting molecule H2N-TPP on gold nanoparticles (GNPs) could not only facilitate the mitochondrial targeting but could also induce gold nanoparticle assembly. Therefore, the GNPs were endowed with good absorption and photothermal conversion abilities in the near-infrared (NIR) region. Meanwhile, a biomimetic strategy was adopted by wrapping the gold nanoparticle assembly (GNA) with cancer cell membranes (CCMs), which helped the GNA enter the prostatic cancer cell via a homotypic membrane-fusion process to avoid being trapped in endosomes/lysosomes. Thereafter, the GNA remaining in the cytoplasm could reach mitochondria more efficiently via guidance from H2N-TPP molecules. This "biomembrane-small molecule" combination targeting process was evidenced by fluorescence microscopy, and the highly efficient photothermal ablation of prostatic tumors in vivo was demonstrated. This portfolio targeting strategy could be extended to various nanodrugs/agents to realize an accurate subcellular targeting efficiency for cancer treatments or cell detections.

Abstract
We report on a new strategy to synthesize asymmetrical hollow colloidal particles by exploiting limited chemical diffusion that occurs at the periphery of a solvated polymer brush on the particle surface. The polymer brush-in our case poly(glycidyl methacrylate)-bears hydroxyl groups upon hydrolysis and is partially cross-linked under the Stöber condition of silication. Desolvation of the polymers creates a cavity. While elucidating this new mechanism, we demonstrate that particles with various types of cavities and tunable properties can be synthesized, including the ones bearing hemispherical and crescent shapes, as well as particles with wrinkled surfaces. Furthermore, we show that the hollow particles adopt preferred orientations because of their shape and composition attributes, which is further explored to facilitate the confined synthesis of nanocrystals.

Abstract
Cell adhesion of nanosystems is significant for efficient cellular uptake and drug delivery in cancer therapy. Herein, a near-infrared (NIR) light-driven biomimetic nanomotor is reported to achieve the improved cell adhesion and cellular uptake for synergistic photothermal and chemotherapy of breast cancer. The nanomotor is composed of carbon@silica (C@SiO2 ) with semi-yolk@spiky-shell structure, loaded with the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) and camouflaged with MCF-7 breast cancer cell membrane (i.e., mC@SiO2 @DOX). Such biomimetic mC@SiO2 @DOX nanomotors display efficient self-thermophoretic propulsion due to a thermal gradient generated by asymmetrically spatial distribution. Moreover, the MCF-7 cancer cell membrane coating can remarkably reduce the bioadhesion of nanomotors in biological medium and exhibit highly specific self-recognition of the source cell line. The combination of effective propulsion and homologous targeting dramatically improves cell adhesion and the resultant cellular uptake efficiency in vitro from 26.2% to 67.5%. Therefore, the biomimetic mC@SiO2 @DOX displays excellent synergistic photothermal and chemotherapy with over 91% MCF-7 cell growth inhibition rate. Such smart design of the fuel-free, NIR light-powered biomimetic nanomotor may pave the way for the application of self-propelled nanomotors in biomedicine.

Abstract
Biohybrid nanosystems represent the cutting-edge research in biofunctionalization of micro- and nano-systems. Their physicochemical properties bring along advantages in the circulation time, camouflaging from the phagocytes, and novel antigens. This is partially a result of the qualitative differences in the protein corona, and the preferential targeting and uptake in homologous cells. However, the effect of the cell membrane on the cellular endocytosis mechanisms and time has not been fully evaluated yet. Here, the effect is assessed by quantitative flow cytometry analysis on the endocytosis of hydrophilic, negatively charged porous silicon nanoparticles and on their membrane-coated counterparts, in the presence of chemical inhibitors of different uptake pathways. Principal component analysis is used to analyze all the data and extrapolate patterns to highlight the cell-specific differences in the endocytosis mechanisms. Furthermore, the differences in the composition of static protein corona between naked and coated particles are investigated together with how these differences affect the interaction with human macrophages. Overall, the presence of the cell membrane only influences the speed and the entity of nanoparticles association with the cells, while there is no direct effect on the endocytosis pathways, composition of protein corona, or any reduction in macrophage-mediated uptake.

Abstract
Nanoparticle (NP)-based cancer immunotherapy has been extensively explored. However, the efficacy of existing strategies is often limited by the lack of effective tumor-specific antigens or the inability to present costimulatory signal or both. Here, we report a novel approach to overcoming these limitations through surface coating with dendritic-tumor fusion cell membranes, which present whole repertories of tumor-associated antigens in the presence of costimulatory molecules. Because antigen-presenting and costimulatory molecules are displayed on their surface, these NPs can efficiently penetrate immune organs and activate T cells. We show that these NPs can be utilized to prevent tumor development and regress established tumors, including tumors in the brain. We demonstrate that encapsulation of immune adjuvants further improves their efficacy. Due to their significant efficacy, the whole tumor antigen-presenting costimulatory NPs have the potential to be translated into clinical applications for treatment of various cancers.

Abstract
Research of nanotechnology for cancer therapy and diagnosis extends beyond drug delivery into the targeted site or surveillance the distribution of nanodrugs in vivo or distinction tumor tissue from normal tissue. To satisfy the clinic needs, nanotheranostic platform should hide the surveillance by immune system and the sequestration by filtration organs (i.e., liver and spleen). Use of biologically derived cellular components in the fabrication of nanoparticles can hide these barriers. In this review, we update the recent progress on cell membrane-coated nanoparticles for cancer theranostics. We hope this review paper can inspire further innovations in biomimetic nanomedicine.

Abstract
The impermeable barrier of solid tumors due to the complexity of their components limits the treatment effect of nanomedicine and hinders its clinical translation. Several methods are available to increase the penetrability of nanomedicine, yet they are too complex to be effective, operational, or practical. Surface modification employs the characteristics of direct contact between multiphase surfaces to achieve the most direct and efficient penetration of solid tumors. Furthermore, their simple operation makes their use feasible. In this review, the latest surface modification strategies for the penetration of nanomedicine into solid tumors are summarized and classified into "bulldozer strategies" and "mouse strategies." Additionally, the evaluation methods, existing problems, and the development prospects of these technologies are discussed.
