Abstract
The considerable development of carrier-free nanodrugs has been achieved due to their high drug-loading capability, simple preparation method, and offering "all-in-one" functional platform features. However, the native defects of carrier-free nanodrugs limit their delivery and release behavior throughout the in vivo journey, which significantly compromise the therapeutic efficacy and hinder their further development in cancer treatment. In this review, we summarized and discussed the recent strategies to enhance drug delivery and release of carrier-free nanodrugs for improved cancer therapy, including optimizing the intrinsic physicochemical properties and external modification. Finally, the corresponding challenges that carrier-free nanodrugs faced are discussed and the future perspectives for its application are presented. We hope this review will provide constructive information for the rational design of more effective carrier-free nanodrugs to advance therapeutic treatment.

Abstract
The scientific community, recently, has focused notable attention on the chemopreventive and therapeutic effects of dietary polyphenols for human health. Emerging evidence demonstrates that polyphenols, flavonoids and vitamins counteract and neutralize genetic and environmental stressors, particularly oxidative stress and inflammatory process closely connected to cancer initiation, promotion and progression. Interestingly, polyphenols can exert antioxidant or pro-oxidant cytotoxic effects depending on their endogenous concentration. Notably, polyphenols at high dose act as pro-oxidants in a wide type of cancer cells by inhibiting Nrf2 pathway and the expression of antioxidant vitagenes, such as NAD(P)H-quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1), glutathione transferase (GT), GPx, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), sirtuin-1 (Sirt1) and thioredoxin (Trx) system which play an essential role in the metabolism of reactive oxygen species (ROS), detoxification of xenobiotics and inhibition of cancer progression, by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest according to the hormesis approach. Importantly, mutagenesis of Nrf2 pathway can exacerbate its "dark side" role, representing a crucial event in the initiation stage of carcinogenesis. Herein, we review the hormetic effects of polyphenols and nanoincapsulated-polyphenols in chemoprevention and treatment of brain tumors via activation or inhibition of Nrf2/vitagenes to suppress carcinogenesis in the early stages, and thus inhibit its progression. Lastly, we discuss innovative preclinical approaches through mini-brain tumor organoids to study human carcinogenesis, from basic cancer research to clinical practice, as promising tools to recapitulate the arrangement of structural neuronal tissues and biological functions of the human brain, as well as test drug toxicity and drive personalized and precision medicine in brain cancer.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT), a novel cancer therapeutic strategy defined as the treatment using Fenton or Fenton-like reaction to produce •OH in the tumor region, was first proposed by Bu, Shi, and co-workers in 2016. Recently, with the rapid development of Fenton and Fenton-like nanomaterials, CDT has attracted tremendous attention because of its unique advantages: 1) It is tumor-selective with low side effects; 2) the CDT process does not depend on external field stimulation; 3) it can modulate the hypoxic and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment; 4) the treatment cost of CDT is low. In addition to the Fe-involved CDT strategies, the Fenton-like reaction-mediated CDT strategies have also been proposed, which are based on many other metal elements including copper, manganese, cobalt, titanium, vanadium, palladium, silver, molybdenum, ruthenium, tungsten, cerium, and zinc. Moreover, CDT has been combined with other therapies like chemotherapy, radiotherapy, phototherapy, sonodynamic therapy, and immunotherapy for achieving enhanced anticancer effects. Besides, there have also been studies that extend the application of CDT to the antibacterial field. This review introduces the latest advancements in the nanomaterials-involved CDT from 2018 to the present and proposes the current limitations as well as future research directions in the related field.

Abstract
Amplification of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) to realize enhanced cancer therapy has been considered to be unique in current cancer nanomedicine design. Herein, the design of metal-phenolic-network-coated dendrimer-drug conjugates as a novel theranostic nanoplatform based on ERS amplification is reported. In the design, acetylated generation-5 poly(amidoamine) dendrimers are conjugated with an ERS drug, toyocamycin (Toy), through the attached phenylboronic acid moiety, and coated with an iron (Fe)-tannic acid (TF) network. The generated nanocomplexes with a size of 50.2 nm are stable under the physiological environment, and can rapidly release Toy under the tumor microenvironment due to the pH- and reactive-oxygen-species-responsive boronic ester bonds to effectively inhibit the ERS-mediated cancer cell adaptation. Meanwhile, the coated TF network enables the nanocomplexes to generate cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals through a Fenton reaction, amplifying the ERS for improved chemo/chemodynamic therapy of cancer cells in vitro and a xenografted breast tumor model in vivo. Moreover, the coating of TF also renders the complexes with an eminent r1 relaxivity for in vivo T1 -weighted tumor magnetic resonance imaging. The created intelligent nanocomplexes may represent an advanced nanomedicine formulation uniquely integrated with a metal-phenolic network and dendrimer nanotechnology for imaging-guided cancer therapy through ERS amplification.

Abstract
Recently, various metal peroxide nanomaterials have drawn increasing attention as an efficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) self-supplying agent for enhanced tumor therapy. However, a single kind of metal peroxide is insufficient to achieve more effective antitumor performance. Here, a hyaluronic acid modified calcium and copper peroxides nanocomposite has been synthesized by a simple one-step strategy. After effective accumulation at the tumor site due to the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect and specific recognition of hyaluronate acid with CD44 protein on the surface of tumor cells, plenty of Ca2+, Cu2+, and H2O2 can be simultaneously released in acid and hyaluronidase overexpressed tumor microenvironment (TME), generating abundant hydroxyl radical through enhanced Fenton-type reaction between Cu2+ and self-supplying H2O2 with the assistance of glutathione depletion. Overloaded Ca2+ can lead to mitochondria injury and thus enhance the oxidative stress in tumor cells. Moreover, an unbalanced calcium transport channel caused by oxidative stress can further promote tumor calcification and necrosis, which is generally defined as ion-interference therapy. As a result, the synergistic effect of Fenton-like reaction by Cu2+ and mitochondria dysfunction by Ca2+ in ROS generation is performed. Therefore, a TME-responsive calcium and copper peroxides nanocomposite based on one-step integration has been successfully established and exhibits a more satisfactory antitumor efficiency than any single kind of metal peroxide.

A tumor microenvironment responsive nanoplatform with oxidative stress amplification for effective MRI-based visual tumor ferroptosis. Acta Biomater 2022; 138:518-527. [PMID: 34775124 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2021] [Revised: 10/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
As a promising new form of non-apoptotic regulated cell death, ferroptosis has potential as an effective supplement to apoptosis-based cancer treatments. However, high intracellular glutathione (GSH) levels and insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the tumor limit the efficacy of ferroptosis. Here, we designed a theranostic nanoplatform, named FCS/GCS, by incorporating amphiphilic polymer skeletal (P-SS-D), cinnamaldehyde prodrug (CA-OH) and iron ions (Fe3+)/gadolinium ions (Gd3+) via chelation reactions between Fe3+/Gd3+ and polyphenols. When delivered in the tumor microenvironment with high GSH level, the nanoparticles are depolymerized by the poly(disulfide) backbone of P-SS-D. The activated CA consumes the GSH and elevates intracellular H2O2, followed by a high level of Fenton reaction to generate abundant •OH levels. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) further accelerates CA activation. The GSH consumption by disulfide, CA and Fe3+, downregulates GPX4 and generates •OH, which accelerate lipid peroxides (LPO) accumulation and consequently enhances ferroptosis. Additionally, the released Gd3+ may serve as a contrast agent for tumor-specific T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Thus, the rationally designed FCS/GCS system is a promising strategy for effective MRI-based visual ferroptosis therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Ferroptosis is a new form of non-apoptotic regulated cell death and has potential as an effective supplement to apoptosis-based cancer treatment. However, the efficiency of ferroptosis is limited by excessive glutathione level and insufficient hydrogen peroxide level in tumor site. In this study, we fabricate a theranostic nanoplatform (FCS/GCS) to amplify oxidation stress in tumor site for effective ferroptosis-based cancer treatment, and tumor specific magnetic resonance imaging is introduced for supervision. Our nanoplatform may provide a promising strategy for MRI-based visual ferroptosis therapy with high specificity and efficiency.

Abstract
Most of the antitumor chemotherapeutic drugs execute the therapeutic performance upon eliciting tumor cell apoptosis, which may cause chemoresistance of tumors. Design of novel drugs to eradicate apoptosis-resistant tumors via non-apoptotic cell death pathways is promising for improving the long-term chemotherapeutic efficacy. Herein, a Fe(III)-Shikonin metal-polyphenol-coordinated supramolecular nanomedicine for combined therapy of tumor via ferroptosis and necroptosis is designed. The construction of the nanomedicine based on the coordinated self-assembly between Fe3+ and Shikonin not only overcomes the shortcomings of Shikonin including its low bioavailability and high toxicity toward normal tissues, but also integrates the theranostics functions of Fe ions. Under the exposure of the high concentration of glutathione (GSH) in tumor cells, the as-prepared nanomedicine will disassemble into Fe2+ and Shikonin, followed by stimulating the tumor cell death through ferroptosis and necroptosis. In addition, benefiting from the stealth effect of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and the targeting ability of cyclo(Arg-Gly-Asp-d-Phe-Lys) (cRGD) to αv β3 -integrin, NH2 -PEG-cRGD-modified nanomedicine exhibits a GSH-responsive therapy toward 4T1 tumor in vivo and self-enhanced longitudinal relaxation (T1 )-weighted imaging property. Since the self-assembly of natural Shikonin and human body-necessary Fe element is facile and feasible, the work may provide a promising supramolecular nanomedicine for next-generation chemotherapeutic applications.

Abstract
Traditional tumor treatments, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and photothermal therapy, are developed and used to treat different types of cancer. Recently, chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has been emerged as a novel cancer therapeutic strategy. CDT utilizes Fenton or Fenton-like reaction to generate highly cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) from endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) to kill cancer cells, which displays promising therapeutic potentials for tumor treatment. However, the low catalytic efficiency and off-target side effects of Fenton reaction limit the biomedical application of CDT. In this regard, various strategies are implemented to potentiate CDT against tumor, including retrofitting the tumor microenvironment (e.g., increasing H2 O2 level, decreasing reductive substances, and reducing pH), enhancing the catalytic efficiency of nanocatalysts, and other strategies. This review aims to summarize the development of CDT and summarize these recent progresses of nanocatalyst-mediated CDT for antitumor application. The future development trend and challenges of CDT are also discussed.

Abstract
Cisplatin is the most widely used chemotherapeutic agent due to its efficacy in the treatment of a broad range of cancer types; while the side effects and drug resistance of cisplatin limit its clincial application. Combination therapy, which contains several types of free drugs, exhibits promising potential in clinical practice. Nevertheless, current combination chemotherapy cannot accurately deliver different drug components into a single tumor cell at the same time. Herein, we report a triple-action nanoplatinum drug based on artesunate and cantharidin to overcome the influence of pharmacokinetics and distribution variation in different drugs. The results show that the triple action nanoplatinum drug enhances ROS generation, leads to DNA damage, and inhibits DNA repair. Therefore, a high-efficiency killing effect is achieved with a triple-action platinum drug in a single tumor cell.

Abstract
Malignant melanoma is an aggressive tumor with a tendency to metastasize early and with an increasing incidence worldwide. Although in early stage, melanoma is well treatable by excision, the chances of cure and thus the survival rate decrease dramatically after metastatic spread. Conventional treatment options for advanced disease include surgical resection of metastases, chemotherapy, radiation, targeted therapy and immunotherapy. Today, targeted kinase inhibitors and immune checkpoint blockers have for the most part replaced less effective chemotherapies. Magnetic nanoparticles as novel agents for theranostic purposes have great potential in the treatment of metastatic melanoma. In the present review, we provide a brief overview of treatment options for malignant melanoma with different magnetic nanocarriers for theranostics. We also discuss current efforts of designing magnetic particles for combined, multimodal therapies (e.g., chemotherapy, immunotherapy) for malignant melanoma.

Abstract
Introduction Numerous options for treatment of glioblastoma have been explored; however, single-drug therapies and poor targeting have failed to provide effective drugs. Chemotherapy has significant antitumor effect, but the efficacy of single-drug therapies in the clinic is limited over a long period of time. Thus, novel therapeutic approaches are necessary to address these critical issues. Objectives The present study, we investigated a tumor-specific metal-tea polyphenol-based cascade nanoreactor for chemodynamic therapy-enhanced chemotherapy. Methods HA-EGCG was synthesized for the first time by introducing epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) into the skeleton of hyaluronic acid (HA) with reducible disulfide bonds. A rapid and green method was developed to fabricate the metal-tea polyphenol networks (MTP) with an HA-EGCG coating (DOX@MTP/HA-EGCG) based on Fe3+ and EGCG for targeted delivery of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX). GL261 cells were used to evaluate the antitumor efficacy of the DOX@MTP/HA-EGCG nanoreactor in vitro and in vivo. Results DOX@MTP/HA-EGCG nanoreactors were able to disassemble, resulting in escape of their components from lysosomes and precise release of DOX, Fe3+, and EGCG in the tumor cells. HA-EGCG depleted glutathione to amplify oxidative stress and enhance chemodynamic therapy. The results of in vivo experiments suggested that DOX@MTP/HA-EGCG specifically accumulates at the CD44-overexpressing GL261 tumor sites and that sustained release of DOX and Fe3+ induced a distinct therapeutic outcome. Conclusions The findings suggested the developed nanoreactor has promising potential as a future GL261 glioblastoma therapy.

Abstract
Cisplatin has been used as standard regimen for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its therapeutic efficacy is greatly limited by the drug resistance. Cisplatin alone cannot achieve an ideal therapeutic outcome. Herein, a dual threat hybrid artemisinin platinum (ArtePt) is synthesized to combine chemodynamic therapy (CDT) with chemotherapy. On the one hand, artesunate can react with intracellular ferrous ion to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) via Fenton reaction for CDT. On the other hand, cisplatin can target DNA for chemotherapy. However, GSH in cancer cells can effectively consume free radicals and detoxify cisplatin simultaneously, which compromised the efficacy of CDT and chemotherapy. Hence, an amphiphilic polymer with an iodine atom in the side chain is designed and encapsulated ArtePt to form NP(ArtePt). This iodine containing polymer NP(ArtePt) can effectively deplete intracellular GSH via an Iodo-Click reaction, thereby enhancing the effect of CDT as well as chemotherapy. Thereafter, a patient-derived xenograft model of hepatic carcinoma (PDXHCC ) is established to evaluate the therapeutic effect of NP(ArtePt), and a significant antitumor effect is achieved with NP(ArtePt). Overall, this study provides an effective strategy to combine CDT with chemotherapy to enhance the efficacy of cisplatin via Iodo-Click reaction, opening a new avenue for the cancer treatment.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is a traditional treatment method in clinical cancer treatment. However, it is limited due to the large toxic side effects of chemotherapeutics. Nanomedicines have shown great potential in the application of tumor therapy. The size of nanoparticles as a crucial factor in the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect can be regulated for the enhanced chemotherapy. Therefore, we believe that regulation of nanoparticle size can be used as an effective sensitizer to enhance the therapeutic effect of chemotherapy drugs on tumors. Here, we prepared several nanoparticles of different hydrodynamic diameters commonly found in nanomedical applications by the diblock copolymer of methoxy polyethylene glycol-poly (ϵ -caprolactone) (mPEG-PCL). The blood circulation effect and organ distribution in blood were detected by fluorescence labeled nanoparticles. We found that the small-sized nanoparticles exhibited much longer blood circulation time than the large-sized nanoparticles in vivo, and thus the nanoparticle concentration in the tumor tissue was relatively high. Systematic injection of the doxorubicin (DOX) loaded nanoparticles can effectively inhibit tumor growth. Compared to the free drug, tumor cells were much more sensitive to DOX loaded nanoparticles of small size. Our nano-drug delivery system has been proven to be safe and nontoxic in vivo and was suitable for use as a sensitizer in clinical oncology chemotherapy.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) uses the tumor microenvironment-assisted intratumoral Fenton reaction for generating highly toxic hydroxyl free radicals (•OH) to achieve selective tumor treatment. However, the limited intratumoral Fenton reaction efficiency restricts the therapeutic efficacy of CDT. Recent years have witnessed the impressive development of various strategies to increase the efficiency of intratumoral Fenton reaction. The introduction of these reinforcement strategies can dramatically improve the treatment efficiency of CDT and further promote the development of enhanced CDT (ECDT)-based multimodal anticancer treatments. In this review, the authors systematically introduce these reinforcement strategies, from their basic working principles, reinforcement mechanisms to their representative clinical applications. Then, ECDT-based multimodal anticancer therapy is discussed, including how to integrate these emerging Fenton reinforcement strategies for accelerating the development of multimodal anticancer therapy, as well as the synergistic mechanisms of ECDT and other treatment methods. Eventually, future direction and challenges of ECDT and ECDT-based multimodal synergistic therapies are elaborated, highlighting the key scientific problems and unsolved technical bottlenecks to facilitate clinical translation.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA), which is derived from marine mussels, has excellent potential in early diagnosis of diseases and targeted drug delivery owing to its good biocompatibility, biodegradability, and photothermal conversion. However, when used as a solid nanoparticle, the application of traditional PDA is restricted because of the low drug-loading and encapsulation efficiencies of hydrophobic drugs. Nevertheless, the emergence of mesoporous materials broaden our horizon. Mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) has the characteristics of a porous structure, simple preparation process, low cost, high specific surface area, high light-to-heat conversion efficiency, and excellent biocompatibility, and therefore has gained considerable interest. This review provides an overview of the preparation methods and the latest applications of MPDA-based nanodrug delivery systems (chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy, photothermal therapy combined with chemotherapy, photothermal therapy combined with immunotherapy, photothermal therapy combined with photodynamic/chemodynamic therapy, and cancer theranostics). This review is expected to shed light on the multi-strategy antitumor therapy applications of MPDA-based nanodrug delivery systems. ![]()

Abstract
In chemodynamic therapy (CDT), the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production plays an important role for evaluating the therapeutic efficacy. However, the high levels of glutathione (GSH) in tumor cells consume the ROS, directly reducing the therapeutic efficiency. Herein, we synthesized carbon-based nanoparticle (Cu-cys CBNPs) using one-pot strategy, which consume GSH via redox reactions to produce Cu+ that catalyze H2 O2 to produce . OH, thus the ROS level was observably increased through this synergistic effect. In vivo experiments further revealed that Cu-cys CBNPs could effectively inhibit tumor growth. Additionally, Cu-cys CBNPs can affect the activity of some protein sulfhydryl groups in cells, which was assessed by rdTOP-ABPP assay. In general, this study not only provides a potential CDT drug, but also provides a strategy for one-pot synthesis of multifunctional nanomaterials.

Abstract
Immune cells can actively regulate tumors or inflammatory sites and have good biocompatibility and safety. Currently, they are one of the most promising candidates for drug delivery systems. Moreover, immune cells can significantly extend the circulation time of nanoparticles and have broad-spectrum tumor-targeting properties. This article first introduces the immune cell types most commonly used in recent years, analyzes their advantages and disadvantages, and elucidates their application in anti-tumor therapy. Next, the various ways of loading nanoparticles on immune cells that have been used in recent years are summarized and simply divided into two categories: backpacks and Trojan horses. Finally, the two "mountains" that stand in front of us when using immune cells as cell carriers, off-target problems and effective release strategies, are discussed.

Abstract
Spatiotemporal regulation of multi-enzyme catalysis with stimuli is crucial in nature to meet different metabolic requirements but presents a challenge in artificial cascade systems. Here, we report a strategy for precise and tunable modulation of enzyme-nanozyme cascade reaction kinetics by remote magnetic stimulation. As a proof of concept, glucose oxidase (GOx) was immobilized onto a ferrimagnetic vortex iron oxide nanoring (Fe3O4 NR) functionalized with poly(ethylene glycol) of different molecular weights to construct a series of Fe3O4 NR@GOx with nanometer linking distances. The activities of GOx and the Fe3O4 NR nanozyme in these systems were shown to be differentially stimulated by Fe3O4 NR-mediated local heat in response to an alternating magnetic field (AMF), leading to modulated cascade reaction kinetics in a distance-dependent manner. Compared to the free GOx and Fe3O4 NR mixture, Fe3O4 NR(D2)@GOx with an optimum linking distance of 1 nm exhibits a superior kinetic match between GOx and the Fe3O4 NR nanozyme and over a 400-fold higher cascade activity under AMF exposure. This enables remarkable intracellular reactive oxygen species production and significantly improved tumor inhibition of AMF-stimulated Fe3O4 NR(D2)@GOx in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice. The strategy reported here offers a straightforward new tool for fine-tuning multi-enzyme catalysis at the molecular level using magnetic stimuli and holds great promise for use in a variety of biotechnology and synthetic biology applications.

Abstract
The clinical translation of chemodynamic therapy has been highly obstructed by the insufficient intracellular H2O2 level in diseased tissues. Herein, we developed a supramolecular nanozyme through a facile one-step cooperative coordination self-assembly of an amphipathic amino acid and glucose oxidase (GOx) in the presence of Fe2+. The results demonstrated that the supramolecular nanozyme possessed cascade enzymatic activity (i.e., GOx and peroxidase), which could amplify the killing efficacy of hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) via self-supplying H2O2, finally achieving synergistic starvation-chemodynamic cancer therapy in vitro. Additionally, this cascade nanozyme also exhibited highly effective antibacterial activity on Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) without the need for additional H2O2. This work provided a promising strategy for the design and development of nanozymes for future biomedical applications.

Abstract
Nanocatalytic cancer therapy based on chemodynamic therapy, which converts hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into toxic reactive oxygen species via the Fenton-like reaction, is regarded as a promising therapeutic strategy due to its specific response toward the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, the H2O2 concentration in TME (100 μM to 1 mM) is insufficient and introducing enough H2O2 or H2O2-generating agents is challenging. In view of this, we report a drug delivery system, CaO2/DOX@Cu/ZIF-8@HA (CDZH), which is capable of targeted H2O2 self-supply and exhibits outstanding chemo/chemodynamic synergetic therapy capability. CaO2/DOX@Cu/ZIF-8@HA is synthesized by fabricating biodegradable Cu/ZIF-8 shell-encapsulated CaO2 nanoparticles, loading chemotherapy drug doxorubicin, and coating a hyaluronic acid shell. In an acidic tumor microenvironment, the CDZH nanostructures targeted the release of doxorubicin, Cu2+, and CaO2. Doxorubicin affects chemotherapy and bioimaging, and CaO2 supplies H2O2 through a Cu-Fenton-like reaction to generate hydroxyl radicals with high oxidation activity for chemodynamic therapy. In brief, the drug delivery system combined targeted H2O2 self-supply and targeted bioimaging possess the potential of an efficient synergistic strategy for chemodynamic therapy and chemotherapy.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a new form of regulated cell death with significant therapeutic prospect, but its application against drug-resistant tumor cells is challenging due to their ability to effuse antitumor agents via p-glycoprotein (P-gp) and anti-lipid peroxidation alkaline intracellular environment. Herein, an amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP)-based nanoplatform is reported for the targeted combinational ferroptosis/apoptosis therapy of drug resistant tumor cells by blocking the MCT4-mediated efflux of lactic acid (LA). The nanoplatform is fabricated through the biomineralization of doxorubicin-Fe2+ (DOX-Fe2+ ) complex and MCT4-inhibiting siRNAs (siMCT4) and can release them to the tumor cytoplasm after the hydrolysis of ACP and dissociation of DOX-Fe2+ in the acidic lysosomes. siMCT4 can inhibit MCT4 expression and force the glycolysis-generated lactic acid (LA) to remain in cytoplasm for rapid acidification. The nanoplatform-induced remodeling of the tumor intracellular environment can not only interrupt the ATP supply required for P-gp-dependent DOX effusion to enhance H2 O2 production, but also increase the overall catalytic efficiency of Fe2+ for the initiation and propagation of lipid peroxidation. These features could act in concert to enhance the efficacy of the combinational ferroptosis/chemotherapy and prolong the survival of tumor-bearing mice. This study may provide new avenues for the treatment of multidrug-resistant tumors.

Abstract
Although the combination of photothermal/chemodynamic therapy (PTT/CDT) based on various inorganic nanomaterials has promising anticancer effects, poor biocompatibility and biodegradability of inorganic nanoplatforms pose obstacles to their use in clinic. On the contrary, nanoscale metal-organic particles are considered to be a promising platform because of their biocompatibility and efficient metabolism. Herein, HA@Cy-Cu NPs are prepared using the coordination-driven assembly of cyanine dyes with Cu2+ ions. HA@Cy-Cu NPs demonstrate excellent synergistic PTT/CDT, a high photothermal conversion efficiency (43%), and enhanced photostability. Moreover, Cu2+ in the NPs can be reduced to Cu+ by glutathione (GSH) and can transform H2 O2 to •OH, which down-regulates intracellular GSH levels and up-regulates significant oxidative damage. Therefore, promising in vivo tumor ablation is observed at a low dose of HA@Cy-Cu, suggesting that the combination of PTT/CDT greatly improved the antitumor performance. HA@Cy-Cu can further improve organic nano-systems for anti-tumor therapy by integrating PTT and CDT.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is considered as a promising modality for selective cancer therapy, which is realized via Fenton reaction-mediated decomposition of endogenous H2O2 to produce toxic hydroxyl radical (•OH) for tumor ablation. While extensive efforts have been made to develop CDT-based therapeutics, their in vivo efficacy is usually unsatisfactory due to poor catalytic activity limited by tumor microenvironment, such as anti-oxidative systems, insufficient H2O2, and mild acidity. To mitigate these issues, we have witnessed a surge in the development of CDT-based combinatorial nanomedicines with complementary or synergistic mechanisms for enhanced tumor therapy. By virtue of their bio-imaging capabilities, Fenton metal nanomedicines (FMNs) are equipped with intrinsic properties of imaging-guided tumor therapies. In this critical review, we summarize recent progress of this field, focusing on FMNs for imaging-guided combinatorial tumor therapy. First, various Fenton metals with inherent catalytic performances and imaging properties, including Fe, Cu and Mn, were introduced to illustrate their possible applications for tumor theranostics. Then, CDT-based combinatorial systems were reviewed by incorporating many other treatment means, including chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT), sonodynamic therapy (SDT), photothermal therapy (PTT), starvation therapy and immunotherapy. Next, various imaging approaches based on Fenton metals were presented in detail. Finally, challenges are discussed, and future prospects are speculated in the field to pave way for future developments.

Abstract
Porphyrin-based nanozymes (Porzymes) have shown promising application potential to fight against tumors using catalytically generated reactive oxygen species from the excessively produced H2O2 in the tumor microenvironment. However, the low coordination porphyrin (CP) loading ratio, difficult controllable nanostructure, low bioavailability, and low biocatalytic activities of current established Porzymes have severely limited their antitumor applications. Here, a novel malignant melanoma cell membrane-coated Pd-based CP nanoplatform (Trojan Porzymes) has been synthesized for biocatalytic and homologous tumor therapies. The Trojan Porzymes exhibit a high CP loading ratio, uniform nanoscale size, single-atom nanostructure, homologous targeted ability, and high-efficiency photo/sono-augmented biocatalytic activities. The enzyme-like biocatalytic experiments display that the Trojan Porzymes can generate abundant •OH via chemodynamic path and 1O2 via visible light or ultrasound excitation. Then we demonstrate that the Trojan Porzymes show homologous targeting ability to tumor cells and can achieve efficient accumulation and long-term retention in cancer tissues. Our in vivo data further disclose that the photo/sono-assisted chemodynamic therapies can significantly augment the treatment efficiency of malignant melanoma. We believe that our work will afford a new biocatalytic and homologous strategy for future clinical malignant melanoma treatments, which may inspire and guide more future studies to develop individualized biomedicine in precise tumor therapies.

Abstract
Bone metastasis occurs in about 70% of breast cancer patients. The surgical resection of metastatic tumors often leads to bone erosion and destruction, which greatly hinders the treatment and prognosis of breast cancer patients with bone metastasis. Herein, a bifunctional scaffold 3D-printed from nanoink is fabricated to simultaneously eliminate the tumor cells and repair the tumor-associated bone defects. The metallic polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles (FeMg-NPs) may effectively load and sustainably release the metal ions Fe3+ and Mg2+ in situ. Fe3+ exerts a chemodynamic therapy to synergize with the photothermal therapy induced by PDA with effective photothermal conversion under NIR laser, which efficiently eliminates the bone-metastatic tumor. Meanwhile, the sustained release of osteoinductive Mg2+ from the bony porous 3D scaffold enhances the new bone formation in the bone defects. Taken together, the implantation of scaffold (FeMg-SC) 3D-printed from the FeMg-NPs-containing nanoink provides a novel strategy to simultaneously eradicate bone-metastatic tumor and repair the tumor-associated bone defects.

Abstract
PEGylation has been widely applied to prolong the circulation times of nanomedicines via the steric shielding effect, which consequently improves the intratumoral accumulation. However, cell uptake of PEGylated nanoformulations is always blocked by the steric repulsion of PEG, which limits their therapeutic effect. To this end, we designed and prepared two kinds of poly(l-glutamic acid)-cisplatin (PLG-CDDP) nanoformulations with detachable PEG, which is responsive to specific tumor tissue microenvironments for prolonged circulation time and enhanced cell internalization. The extracellular pH (pHe)-responsive cleavage 2-propionic-3-methylmaleic anhydride (CDM)-derived amide bond and matrix metalloproteinases-2/9 (MMP-2/9)-sensitive degradable peptide PLGLAG were utilized to link PLG and PEG, yielding pHe-responsive PEG-pH e-PLG and MMP-sensitive PEG-MMP-PLG. The corresponding smart nanoformulations PEG-pH e-PLG-Pt and PEG-MMP-PLG-Pt were then prepared by the complexation of polypeptides and cisplatin (CDDP). The circulation half-lives of PEG-pH e-PLG-Pt and PEG-MMP-PLG-Pt were about 4.6 and 4.2 times higher than that of the control PLG-Pt, respectively. Upon reaching tumor tissue, PEG on the surface of nanomedicines was detached as triggered by pHe or MMP, which increased intratumoral CDDP retention, enhanced cell uptake, and improved antitumor efficacy toward a fatal high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) mouse model, indicating the promising prospects for clinical application of detachable PEGylated nanoformulations.

Abstract
Catalytic cascade transformations, which occur in spatially constrained tumor environment to generate therapeutic moieties from prodrugs or intrinsic species, are highly desirable for precise cancer therapy. Nevertheless, it is high challenging to engineer a cascade nanoreactor with tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive capability for synergistic tumor therapy. Inspired by the biocatalytic cascades in biological processes, here, a tumor-specific nanoreactor was established to activate cascade reactions for oxidative stress-augmented chemotherapy by the integration of an artificial enzyme, Pt(IV)-based prodrug (Pt(IV)), with Cu(II)-based metal-organic frameworks (CuMOF). Upon internalization of CuMOF@Pt(IV) by tumor cells, in addition to chemotherapeutic effect, the activated cisplatin by glutathione (GSH) reduction is capable of acting as an artificial enzyme to elevate the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) level through cascade reactions for augmenting the therapeutic efficacy of Cu+-mediated chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Meanwhile, CuMOF@Pt(IV) specifically deplete overexpressed GSH at tumor sites, thus amplifying tumor oxidative stress, and finally leading to augmented antitumor efficacy. The orchestrated cooperative effect of chemotherapy and oxidative stress presents splendid therapeutic efficacy on tumor-bearing mice with negligible adverse effects. Therefore, this cascade nanoreactor provides exciting opportunities to develop complementary therapeutic modalities for precise cancer treatment.

Abstract
Autophagy inhibition could hinder the underlying protective mechanisms in the course of tumor treatment. The advances in autophagy inhibition have driven focus on the functionalized nanoplatforms by combining the current treatment paradigms with complementary autophagy inhibition for enhanced efficacy. Furthermore, Ca2+ overload is also a promising adjuvant target for the tumor treatment by augmenting mitochondrial damage. In this view, complementary mitochondrial Ca2+ overload and autophagy inhibition were first demonstrated as a novel strategy suitable for homing in on the shortage of photodynamic therapy (PDT). We constructed biodegradable tumor-targeted inorganic/organic hybrid nanocomposites (DPGC/OI) synchronously encapsulating IR780 and Obatoclax by biomineralization of the nanofilm method, which consists of pH-triggered calcium phosphate (CP), long circulation phospholipid block copolymers 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DSPE)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)2000-glucose (DPG). In the presence of the hydrophilic PEG chain and glucose transporter 1 (Glut-1) ligands, DPGC would become an effectively tumor-oriented nanoplatform. Subsequently, IR780 as an outstanding photosensitizer could produce increased amounts of toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) after laser irradiation. Calcium phosphate (CP) as the Ca2+ nanogenerator could generate Ca2+ at low pH to induce mitochondrial Ca2+ overload. The dysfunction of mitochondria could enhance increased amounts of ROS. Based on the premise that autophagy would degrade dysfunctional organelles to sustain metabolism and homeostasis, which might participate in resistance to PDT, Obatoclax as an autophagy inhibitor would hinder the protective mechanism from cancer cells with negligible toxicity. Such an enhanced PDT via mitochondrial Ca2+ overload and autophagy inhibition could be realized by DPGC/OI.

Abstract
The clinical application of chemodynamic therapy is impeded by the insufficient intracellular H2 O2 level in tumor tissues. Herein, we developed a supramolecular nanoparticle via a simple one-step supramolecular polymerization-induced self-assembly process using platinum (IV) complex-modified β-cyclodextrin-ferrocene conjugates as supramolecular monomers. The supramolecular nanoparticles could dissociate rapidly upon exposure to endogenous H2 O2 in the tumor and release hydroxyl radicals as well as platinum (IV) prodrugs in situ, which is reduced into cisplatin to significantly promote the generation of H2 O2 in the tumor tissue. Thus, the supramolecular nanomedicine overcomes the limitation of conventional chemodynamic therapy via the self-augmented cascade radical generation and drug release. In addition, dissociated supramolecular nanoparticles could be readily excreted from the body via renal clearance to effectively avoid systemic toxicity and ensure long term biocompatibility of the nanomedicine. This work may provide new insights on the design and development of novel supramolecular nanoassemblies for cascade chemo/chemodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Endogenic tumor chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is emerging as a tumor-therapeutic strategy featuring in situ treatments with high efficiency and specificity based on the Fenton reaction principle. Considering the limitation of monotherapy and relatively insufficient intracellular level of endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in tumor tissues, a mitochondria-specific nanocatalyst composed of cisplatin prodrug and gallic acid-ferrous (GA-Fe(II)) nanocomposites is successfully fabricated to fulfill chemotherapy-augmented sequential chemoreactive tumor therapy. The bioactive cisplatin elevates the level of endogenous H2O2 through the activation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX)-related cascaded reactions, and the GA-Fe(II) nanocomposites possessing sustainable Fenton catalytic activity subsequently catalyzes H2O2 into highly reactive and toxic hydroxyl radicals to substantially inhibit tumor progression. Especially, this mitochondria-specific nanocatalyst amplifies oxidative stress, stimulates mitochondrial dysfunction, downregulates AKT/mTOR signaling and finally induces cell autophagic death. Both in vitro and in vivo measurements verify that the chemotherapy-augmented sequential chemoreactive nanotherapy based on the mitochondria-specific nanocatalyst implements excellent anticancer efficiency and avoids undesired side effects. This work reveals the enormous potential of chemotherapy-augmented CDT for combating tumors.

Abstract
Metal-coordinated supramolecular nanoassemblies have recently attracted extensive attention as materials for cancer theranostics. Owing to their unique physicochemical properties, metal-coordinated supramolecular self-assemblies can bridge the boundary between traditional inorganic and organic materials. By tailoring the structural components of the metal ions and binding ligands, numerous multifunctional theranostic nanomedicines can be constructed. Metal-coordinated supramolecular nanoassemblies can modulate the tumor microenvironment (TME), thus facilitating the development of TME-responsive nanomedicines. More importantly, TME-responsive organic-inorganic hybrid nanomaterials can be constructed in vivo by exploiting the metal-coordinated self-assembly of a variety of functional ligands, which is a promising strategy for enhancing the tumor accumulation of theranostic molecules. In this review, recent advancements in the design and fabrication of metal-coordinated supramolecular nanomedicines for cancer theranostics are highlighted. These supramolecular compounds are classified according to the order in which the coordinated metal ions appear in the periodic table. Furthermore, the prospects and challenges of metal-coordinated supramolecular self-assemblies for both technical advances and clinical translation are discussed. In particular, the superiority of TME-responsive nanomedicines for in vivo coordinated self-assembly is elaborated, with an emphasis on strategies that enhance the accumulation of functional components in tumors for an ideal theranostic outcome.

Abstract
Platinum-based anticancer drugs can inhibit the growth of cancer cells by disrupting DNA replication, which makes them widely applicable in clinics for treating tumors and cancers. However, owing to the intrinsic or acquired drug resistance and severe side effects caused in the treatment, their successful clinical applications have been limited. Various strategies have been used to address these challenges. Nanocarriers have been used for platinum drug delivery because they can be effectively deposited in tumor tissues to reduce the damage to normal organs for an enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. Furthermore, for synergizing the function of platinum-based drugs with different mechanisms to decrease the toxicities, multicomponent chemotherapy has become an imperative strategy in clinical cancer treatments. This review aims to introduce the mechanisms of action and limitations of platinum-based drugs in clinics, followed by providing the current advancement of nanocarriers including lipids, polymers, dendrimers, micelles and albumin for platinum drug delivery in cancer treatments. In addition, multicomponent chemotherapy based on platinum drugs is introduced in detail. Finally, the prospects of multicomponent chemotherapy for cancer treatment are discussed as well.

Abstract
Macrophage accumulation is central to the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic plaques. Reducing macrophages in plaques is an appealing approach to attenuate the development of atherosclerosis. Chemodynamic therapy, specifically inhibiting hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-rich cells in slightly acidic microenvironment, has emerged as a new method in tumor treatment. Herein, we manufactured ultrasmall dopamine-modified hyaluronic acid (HD)-stabilized Fe(III)-tannic acid nanoparticles (HFTNPs). HFTNPs can specifically accumulate in inflammatory macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques, provide brighter magnetic resonance images, promote reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and induce the death of inflammatory macrophages without damaging normal cells and tissues. In conclusion, HFTNPs have a tremendous potential as safe and effective diagnostic and therapeutic reagents for atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Although multimethod therapy has shown great promise for effective cancer treatment, it is still a great challenge to develop simple and effective strategies to construct multifunctional therapeutic reagents. According to the characteristics of the tumor microenvironment, such as a mild acidic environment and overexpression of H2O2, an intelligent therapeutic reagent with photoacoustic (PA) imaging-guided photothermal therapy, chemodynamic therapy, and in situ chemotherapy was constructed by simply loading disulfiram (DSF) in a Cu-based porous metal-organic framework (HKUST-1). The resultant material DFS@HKUST-1 shows near-infrared adsorption around 600-900 nm and effective photoacoustic imaging properties and photothermal conversion efficiency upon 808 nm irradiation. Besides, after DFS@HKUST-1 is enriched in the tumor, the acidic environment of the tumor will slowly trigger the decomposition of HKUST-1, leading to the release of Cu2+ ions to react with DSF and endogenous H2O2 to generate the Cu/DSF complex (CuET) and cytotoxic •OH for chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy, respectively. Therefore, DFS@HKUST-1 can serve as a promising tumor microenvironment response therapeutic reagent for photoacoustic imaging-guided multimethod therapy.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is a promising therapeutic modality with transition metal ions and endogenous H2O2 as reagents, but its efficiency is impaired by low endogenous H2O2 levels and nonregeneration of metal ions. Most intracellular H2O2 supplement strategies use oxidases and are intensively dependent on oxygen participation. The hypoxia microenvironments of solid tumors weaken their performance. Here, we develop a near-infrared II light powered nanoamplifier to improve the local oxygen level and to enhance CDT. The nanoamplifier CPNP-Fc/Pt consists of ferrocene (Fc)- and cisplatin prodrug (Pt(IV))-modified conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNPs). CPNP has a donor-acceptor structure and demonstrates a good photothermal effect under 1064 nm light irradiation, which accelerates blood flow and efficiently elevates the local oxygen content. In response to intracellular glutathione, Pt(II) is released from CPNP-Fc/Pt and triggers enzymatic cascade reactions with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NADPH oxidase) and superoxide dismutase to convert oxygen into H2O2. The enhanced oxygen level results in efficient intracellular H2O2 supply. Fc is reacted with H2O2 and converted to Fc+ via the Fenton reaction, with the generation of hydroxyl radicals for CDT. Unlike free metal ions, the Fe(III) in Fc+ is reduced to Fe(II) by intracellular NAD(P)H, which achieves the regeneration of Fc. The sufficient intracellular H2O2 supply and efficient Fc regeneration effectively enhance the Fenton reaction and demonstrate good in vivo CDT results with tumor growth suppression. This design offers a promising strategy to enhance CDT efficiency in the hypoxia microenvironment of solid tumors.

Abstract
It is of utmost urgency to achieve effective and safe anticancer treatment with the increasing mortality rate of cancer. Novel anticancer drugs and strategies need to be designed for enhanced therapeutic efficacy. Fenton- and Fenton-like reaction-based chemodynamic therapy (CDT) are new strategies to enhance anticancer efficacy due to their capacity to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxygen (O2). On the one hand, the generated ROS can damage the cancer cells directly. On the other hand, the generated O2 can relieve the hypoxic condition in the tumor microenvironment (TME) which hinders efficient photodynamic therapy, radiotherapy, etc. Therefore, CDT can be used together with many other therapeutic strategies for synergistically enhanced combination therapy. The antitumor applications of Fenton- and Fenton-like reaction-based nanomaterials will be discussed in this review, including: (iþ) producing abundant ROS in-situ to kill cancer cells directly, (ii) enhancing therapeutic efficiency indirectly by Fenton reaction-mediated combination therapy, (iii) diagnosis and monitoring of cancer therapy. These strategies exhibit the potential of CDT-based nanomaterials for efficient cancer therapy.
