Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been recognized as a valuable treatment option for localized cancers. Herein, we demonstrate a cellular and subcellular targeted strategy to facilitate PDT efficacy. The PDT system was fabricated by incorporating a cationic porphyrin derivative (MitoTPP) onto the polyethylene glycol (PEG)-functionalized and folic acid-modified nanographene oxide (NGO). For this PDT system, NGO serves as the carrier for MitoTPP as well as the quencher for MitoTPP's fluorescence and singlet oxygen ((1)O2) generation. Attaching a hydrophobic cation to the photosensitizer ensures its release from NGO at lower pH values as well as its mitochondria-targeting capability. Laser confocal microscope experiments demonstrate that this dual-targeted nanosystem could preferably enter the cancer cells overexpressed with folate receptor, and release its cargo MitoTPP, which subsequently accumulates in mitochondria. Upon light irradiation, the released MitoTPP molecules generate singlet oxygen and cause oxidant damage to the mitochondria. Cell viability assays suggest that the dual-targeted nanohybrids exhibit much higher cytotoxicity toward the FR-positive cells.

Abstract
Phototherapies such as photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), due to their specific spatiotemporal selectivity and minimal invasiveness, have been widely investigated as alternative treatments of malignant diseases. Graphene and its derivatives not only have been used as carriers to deliver photosensitizers for PDT, but also as photothermal conversion agents (PTCAs) for PTT. Herein, we strategically designed and produced a novel photo-theranostic platform based on sinoporphyrin sodium (DVDMS) photosensitizer-loaded PEGylated graphene oxide (GO-PEG-DVDMS) for enhanced fluorescence/photoacoustic (PA) dual-modal imaging and combined PDT and PTT. The GO-PEG carrier drastically improves the fluorescence of loaded DVDMS via intramolecular charge transfer. Concurrently, DVDMS significantly enhances the near-infrared (NIR) absorption of GO for improved PA imaging and PTT. The cancer theranostic capability of the as-prepared GO-PEG-DVDMS was carefully investigated both in vitro and in vivo. This novel theranostics is well suited for fluorescence/PA dual-modal imaging and synergistic PDT/PTT.

Abstract
Multimodal therapeutic agents based on nanomaterials for cancer combination therapy have attracted increasing attention. In this report, a novel photo- and chemoactive nanohybrid was fabricated by assembling photosensitizer Zn(II)-phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) on the biocompatible poly-l-lysine (PLL)-grafted graphene (G-PLL). This nanocomplex of G-PLL/DOX/ZnPc showed excellent physiochemical properties, including high solubility and stability in biological solutions, high drug loading efficiency, pH-triggered drug release, and ability to generalize (1)O2 under light excitation. Compared to free drug molecules, cells treated with G-PLL/DOX/ZnPc showed a higher cellular uptake. In particular, G-PLL/DOX/ZnPc elicited a remarkable synergistic anticancer activity owing to combined photodynamic and chemotherapeutic effects. The combination dose reduction indexes revealed that combining DOX with ZnPc provided strong synergistic effects (combination index < 0.1) against three cancer cell lines tested (HeLa, MCF-7, and B16). Thus, this study demonstrates programmable dual-modality therapy exemplified by G-PLL/DOX/ZnPc to synergistically treat cancers.

Abstract
Single- or few-layered transitional metal dichalcogenides, as a new genus of two-dimensional nanomaterials, have attracted tremendous attention in recent years, owing to their various intriguing properties. In this study, chemically exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets are modified with lipoic acid-terminated polyethylene glycol (LA-PEG), obtaining PEGylated MoS2 (MoS2-PEG) with high stability in physiological solutions and no obvious toxicity. Taking advantage of its ultra-high surface area, the obtained MoS2-PEG is able to load a photodynamic agent, chlorin e6 (Ce6), by physical adsorption. In vitro experiments reveal that Ce6 after being loaded on MoS2-PEG shows remarkably increased cellular uptake and thus significantly enhanced photodynamic therapeutic efficiency. Utilizing the strong, near-infrared (NIR) absorbance of the MoS2 nanosheets, we further demonstrate photothermally enhanced photodynamic therapy using Ce6-loaded MoS2-PEG for synergistic cancer killing, in both in vitro cellular and in vivo animal experiments. Our study presents a new type of multifunctional nanocarrier for the delivery of photodynamic therapy, which, if combined with photothermal therapy, appears to be an effective therapeutic approach for cancer treatment.

Abstract
AIM PEGylated fluorescent nanodiamond (FND) conjugated with Tf (FND-PEG-Tf) was investigated for targeted drug delivery. MATERIALS & METHODS Human hepatoma (HepG2) and normal (L-02) cell lines were used to investigate the difference in cellular uptake of FND-PEG-Tf and its loading drug system. Nanoparticle uptake was evaluated by flow cytometry and laser scanning confocal microscopy. RESULTS FND-PEG-Tf showed highly specific TfR-mediated uptake by HepG2 cells, relative to negative controls (L-02 cell), which was a strong correlation among TfR density on the cell surface. The mechanism of TfR-mediated uptake was attested by free Tf with Fe³⁺ as a competitive agent. The difference in cell viability between L-02 and HepG2 cells treated with doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) nanoparticles (FND-PEG-Tf-DOX) can be explained by FND-PEG-Tf, which can target drug delivery to cancer cells. CONCLUSION FND-PEG-Tf can potentially be utilized in targeted cancer cell imaging and effective drug delivery for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Herein, a cancer-recognizing polymeric photosensitizer (CRPP) was demonstrated not only for high water solubility but also for pH-responsive targeted photodynamic cancer therapy. The synthesized CRPP exhibited high water solubility and the pH-dependent charge-switching property. From an in vitro cellular internalization study with HCT-116 human colon cancer cells, significantly enhanced cellular uptake as detected for CRPP at pH 6.5 compared to the cellular uptake of CRPP at pH 7.4, which led to enhanced cytotoxicity in the cancer cells. Finally, the CRPP was found to exhibit high tumor-targeting efficacy in an in vivo tumor model and was finally excreted through the renal route.

Abstract
We report a type of photosensitizer (PS)-loaded micelles integrating cyanine dye as potential theranostic micelles for precise anatomical tumor localization via dual photoacoustic (PA)/near-infrared fluorescent (NIRF) imaging modalities, and simultaneously superior cancer therapy via sequential synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT)/photodynamic therapy (PDT). The micelles exhibit enhanced photostability, cell internalization and tumor accumulation. The dual NIRF/PA imaging modalities of the micelles cause the high imaging contrast and spatial resolution of tumors, which provide precise anatomical localization of the tumor and its inner vasculature for guiding PTT/PDT treatments. Moreover, the micelles can generate severe photothermal damage on cancer cells and destabilization of the lysosomes upon PTT photoirradiation, which subsequently facilitate synergistic photodynamic injury via PS under PDT treatment. The sequential treatments of PTT/PDT trigger the enhanced cytoplasmic delivery of PS, which contributes to the synergistic anticancer efficacy of PS. Our strategy provides a dual-modal cancer imaging with high imaging contrast and spatial resolution, and subsequent therapeutic synergy of PTT/PDT for potential multimodal theranostic application.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally-occurring glycosaminoglycan and a major component of the extracellular matrix. Low levels of the hyaluronic acid receptor CD44 are found on the surface of epithelial, hematopoietic, and neuronal cells; it is overexpressed in many cancer cells, and in particular in tumor-initiating cells. HA has recently attracted considerable interest in the field of developing drug delivery systems, having been used, as such or encapsulated in different types of nanoassembly, as ligand to prepare nano-platforms for actively targeting drugs, genes, and diagnostic agents. This review describes recent progress made with the several chemical strategies adopted to synthesize conjugates and prepare novel delivery systems with improved behaviors.

Abstract
Nanographene oxide (NGO) are highly suitable to be the shells of inorganic nanomaterials to enhance their biocompatibility and hydrophilicity for biomedical applications while retaining their useful photonic, magnetic, or radiological functions. In this study, a novel nanostructure with gold nanorods (AuNRs) encapsulated in NGO shells is developed to be an ultraefficient chemophotothermal cancer therapy agent. The NGO shells decrease the toxicity of surfactant-coated AuNRs and provide anchor points for the conjugation of hyaluronic acid (HA). The HA-conjugated NGO-enwrapped AuNR nanocomposites (NGOHA-AuNRs) perform higher photothermal efficiency than AuNRs and have the capability of targeting hepatoma Huh-7 cells. NGOHA-AuNR is applied to load doxorubicin (DOX), and it exhibits pH-responsive and near-infrared light-triggered drug-release properties. Chemophotothermal combined therapy by NGOHA-AuNRs-DOX performs 1.5-fold and 4-fold higher targeting cell death rates than single chemotherapy and photothermal therapy, respectively, with biosafety to nontargeting cells simultaneously. Furthermore, our strategy could be extended to constructing other NGO-encapsulated functional nanomaterial-based carrier systems.

Abstract
An efficient phototriggered Diels-Alder conjugation is utilized to graft in an effective and straightforward approach poly(trifluoro ethyl methacrylate) (Mn = 3700 Da, Đ = 1.27) and a model peptide (GIGKFLHS) onto thin hyaluronan films and cellulose surfaces. The surfaces were functionalized with an o-quinodimethane moiety - capable of releasing a caged diene - via carbodiimide mediated coupling. The o-quinodimethane group is employed as a photoactive linker to tether predefined peptide/polymer strands in a spatially controlled manner onto the biosurface by photoenol ligation. An in-depth characterization employing XPS, ToF-SIMS, SPR, ellipsometry, and AFM was conducted to evidence the effectiveness of the presented approach.

Abstract
This present article demonstrates the strategy to prepare photoresponsive reduced graphene oxide with mussel inspired adhesive material dopamine (DN) and photochromic dye spiropyran (SP) conjugated to the backbone of the targeting ligand hyaluronic acid (HA; HA-SP). Graphene oxide (GO) was reduced by prepared HA-SP accepting the advantages of catechol chemistry under mildly alkaline condition enabling to achieve functionalized graphene (rGO/HA-SP) as fluorescent nanoparticles. Due to containing HA, rGO/HA-SP can bind to the CD44 cell receptors. The prepared rGO/HA-SP is able to retain its photochromic features and can be converted to merocyanine (MC) form upon irradiation with UV light (wavelength: 365 nm) displaying purple color. Photochromic behavior of rGO/HA-SP was monitored by UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. In vitro fluorescence behavior, examined by confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM), of rGO/HA-SP in cancerous A549 cell lines assured that efficient delivery of rGO/HA-SP was gained due to HA as targeting ligand. In this work, we have shown that in vivo fluorescence image of spiropyran is possible by administrating MC form solution of rGO/HA-SP using Balb/C mice as in vivo modal. Accumulation of rGO/HA-SP in tumor tissue from biodistribution analysis strongly supports the specific delivery of prepared graphene to the target destination. The well tuned drug release manner from the surface of rGO/HA-SP strongly recommends the developed material not only as fluorescent probe for diagnosis but also as a drug carrier in drug delivery system.

Abstract
Here, we report hyaluronyl reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets as a tumor-targeting delivery system for anticancer agents. Hyaluronyl-modified rGO nanosheets were prepared by synthesizing cholesteryl hyaluronic acid (CHA) and using it to coat rGO nanosheets, yielding CHA-rGO. Compared with rGO, CHA-rGO nanosheets showed increased colloidal stability under physiological conditions and improved in vivo safety, with a survival rate of 100% after intravenous administration of 40 mg/kg in mice. The doxorubicin (Dox) loading capacity of CHA-rGO was 4-fold greater than that of rGO. Uptake of Dox by CD44-overexpressing KB cells was higher for CHA-rGO than for rGO, and was decreased in the presence of hyaluronic acid through competition for CD44 receptor binding. After intravenous administration in tumor-bearing mice, CHA-rGO/Dox showed higher tumor accumulation than rGO/Dox. The in vivo antitumor efficacy of Dox delivered by CHA-rGO was significantly increased compared with free Dox or rGO/Dox. In CHA-rGO/Dox-treated mice, tumor weights were reduced to 14.1% ± 0.1% of those in untreated mice. Our findings indicate that CHA-rGO nanosheets possess greater stability, safety, drug-loading capacity, and CD44-mediated delivery of Dox than rGO nanosheets. These beneficial properties of CHA-rGO improved the distribution of Dox to tumors and facilitated the cellular uptake of Dox by CD44-overexpressing tumor cells, resulting in enhanced anticancer effects.
