[PMID: 38636377 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139311] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-based immunochromatographic assay has gained popularity as a rapid detection method for food hazards. Synthesizing highly stable AuNPs in a rapid, simple and environmentally friendly manner is a key focus in this field. Here, we present a green microfluidic strategy for the rapid, automated, and size-controllable synthesis of pepsin-doped AuNPs (AuNPs@Pep) by employing glucose-pepsin as a versatile reducing agent and stabilizer. Through combining the colorimetric and photothermal (PoT) properties of AuNPs@Pep, both "signal-off" and "signal-on" formats of microfluidic paper analytical devices (PADs) were developed for detection of a small molecule antibiotic, florfenicol, and an egg allergen, ovalbumin. Compared to the colorimetric mode, a 4-fold and 3-fold improvement in limit of detection was observed in the "signal-off" detection of florfenicol and the "signal-on" detection of ovalbumin, respectively. The results demonstrated the practicality of AuNPs@Pep as a colorimetric/PoT dual-readout probe for immunochromatographic detection of food hazards at different molecular scales.

Abstract
Cancer presents a formidable challenge in modern medicine due to the intratumoral heterogeneity and the dynamic microenvironmental niche. Natural or genetically engineered oncolytic bacteria have always been hailed by scientists for their intrinsic tumor-targeting and oncolytic capacities. However, the immunogenicity and low toxicity inevitably constrain their application in clinical practice. When nanomaterials, characterized by distinctive physicochemical properties, are integrated with oncolytic bacteria, they achieve mutually complementary advantages and construct efficient and safe nanobiohybrids. In this review, we initially analyze the merits and drawbacks of conventional tumor therapeutic approaches, followed by a detailed examination of the precise oncolysis mechanisms employed by oncolytic bacteria. Subsequently, we focus on harnessing nanomaterial-assisted oncolytic bacteria (NAOB) to augment the effectiveness of tumor therapy and utilizing them as nanotheranostic agents for imaging-guided tumor treatment. Finally, by summarizing and analyzing the current deficiencies of NAOB, this review provides some innovative directions for developing nanobiohybrids, intending to infuse novel research concepts into the realm of solid tumor therapy.

Abstract
Bacterial infections continue to pose a significant global health challenge, with the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria and biofilms further complicating treatment options. The rise of pan-resistant bacteria, coupled with the slow development of new antibiotics, highlights the urgent need for new therapeutic strategies. Nanotechnology-based biosensors offer fast, specific, sensitive, and selective methods for detecting and treating bacteria; hence, it is a promising approach for the diagnosis and treatment of MDR bacteria. Through mechanisms, such as destructive bacterial cell membranes, suppression of efflux pumps, and generation of reactive oxygen species, nanotechnology effectively combats bacterial resistance and biofilms. Nano-biosensors and related technology have demonstrated their importance in bacteria diagnosis and treatment, providing innovative ideas for MDR inhibition. This review focuses on multiple nanotechnology approaches in targeting MDR bacteria and eliminating antimicrobial biofilms, highlighting nano-biosensors via photodynamics-based biosensors, eletrochemistry biosensors, acoustic-dynamics sensors, and so on. Furthermore, the major challenges, opportunities of multi-physical-field biometrics-based biosensors, and relevant nanotechnology in MDR bacterial theranostics are also discussed. Overall, this review provides insights and scientific references to harness the comprehensive and diverse capabilities of nano-biosensors for precise bacteria theranostics and MDR inhibition.

Abstract
Recently, single-wavelength synergetic photothermal/photodynamic (PTT/PDT) therapy is beginning to make its mark in cancer treatment, and the key to it is a photosensitizer. In this work, an iron-doped metal-zinc-centered organic framework mesoporous carbon derivative (denoted as Fex-Zn-NCT) with a similar porphyrin property was successfully synthesized by a mild, simple, and green aqueous reaction. The effects of different Fe contents and pyrolysis temperatures on the morphology, structure, and PTT/PDT of Fex-Zn-NCT were investigated. Most importantly, we found that Fe50-Zn-NC900 exhibited excellent PTT/PDT performance under single-wavelength near-infrared (808 nm) light irradiation in a hydrophilic environment. The photothermal conversion efficiency (η) was counted as ∼81.3%, and the singlet oxygen (1O2) quantum yield (Φ) was compared with indocyanine green (ICG) as ∼0.0041. Furthermore, Fe50-Zn-NC900 is provided with a clear ability for generating 1O2 in living tumor cells and inducted massive necrosis/apoptosis of tumor cells with single-wavelength near-infrared laser irradiation. All of these are clear to consider that Fe50-Zn-NC900 displays great potential as an excellent photosensitizer for single-wavelength dual-mode PTT/PDT therapy.

Neutrophil-inspired photothermo-responsive drug delivery system for targeted treatment of bacterial infection and endotoxins neutralization. Biomater Res 2023; 27:30. [PMID: 37061741 PMCID: PMC10105932 DOI: 10.1186/s40824-023-00372-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 03/26/2023] [Indexed: 04/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND P. aeruginosa, a highly virulent Gram-negative bacterium, can cause severe nosocomial infections, and it has developed resistance against most antibiotics. New therapeutic strategies are urgently needed to treat such bacterial infection and reduce its toxicity caused by endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS). Neutrophils have been proven to be able to target inflammation site and neutrophil membrane receptors such as Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) and CD14, and exhibit specific affinity to LPS. However, antibacterial delivery system based on the unique properties of neutrophils has not been reported. METHODS A neutrophil-inspired antibacterial delivery system for targeted photothermal treatment, stimuli-responsive antibiotic release and endotoxin neutralization is reported in this study. Specifically, the photothermal reagent indocyanine green (ICG) and antibiotic rifampicin (RIF) are co-loaded into poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NP-ICG/RIF), followed by coating with neutrophil membrane to obtain antibacterial delivery system (NM-NP-ICG/RIF). The inflammation targeting properties, synergistic antibacterial activity of photothermal therapy and antibiotic treatment, and endotoxin neutralization have been studied in vitro. A P. aeruginosa-induced murine skin abscess infection model has been used to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of the NM-NP-ICG/RIF. RESULTS Once irradiated by near-infrared lasers, the heat generated by NP-ICG/RIF triggers the release of RIF and ICG, resulting in a synergistic chemo-photothermal antibacterial effect against P. aeruginosa (~ 99.99% killing efficiency in 5 min). After coating with neutrophil-like cell membrane vesicles (NMVs), the nanoparticles (NM-NP-ICG/RIF) specifically bind to inflammatory vascular endothelial cells in infectious site, endowing the nanoparticles with an infection microenvironment targeting function to enhance retention time. Importantly, it is discovered for the first time that NMVs-coated nanoparticles are able to neutralize endotoxins. The P. aeruginosa murine skin abscess infection model further demonstrates the in vivo therapeutic efficacy of NM-NP-ICG/RIF. CONCLUSION The neutrophil-inspired antibacterial delivery system (NM-NP-ICG/RIF) is capable of targeting infection microenvironment, neutralizing endotoxin, and eradicating bacteria through a synergistic effect of photothermal therapy and antibiotic treatment. This drug delivery system made from FDA-approved compounds provides a promising approach to fighting against hard-to-treat bacterial infections.

Abstract
In recent years, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated cancer therapies have been widely recognized for their high selectivity and good biological safety. However, due to the difficulties of endogenous tumor microenvironment (TME), penetration of tumor tissues and integration of multimodal tumor ablation, the treatment with traditional therapies could not achieve satisfactory tumor inhibition effects. Here, a doxorubicin (DOX)-glucose oxidase (GOx) dual-loaded and poly (2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEOz) decorated magnetic polydopamine nanoparticles (Fe3O4-DOX@PDA-GOx@PEOz, FDPGP) were constructed for tumor ablation. GOx-mediated cascade enzyme reactions could amplify oxidative stress damage and further synergistically inhibit breast cancer. Its pH-responsive charge reversal, drug-controlled release, photothermal, and cascade reactions were evaluated through extracellular experiments. Cellular uptake, cell cytotoxicity, tumor penetration and therapeutic efficacy of FDPGP were investigated through intracellular experiments. Finally, in vivo distribution, photothermal, synergistic antitumor therapeutic effect and biosafety were evaluated comprehensively by in vivo experiments. Excitingly, outstanding tumor enrichment and penetration, superior anticancer effects and biosafety were achieved by the combination of photothermal therapy (PTT)/starvation therapy (ST)/chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/chemotherapy (CT). As such, the FDPGP nanoplatform provides a new insight into the development of collaboratively multimodal enhanced tumor therapy.

Abstract
Given the similarity with photocatalysis, sonodynamic therapy (SDT) can be defined as ultrasonic (US) catalysis. Encouraged by the principles of photocatalysis and defect chemistry, defect-rich nickel (Ni)-doped cobaltous oxide (Ni-CoO@PEG) porous hexagonal nanosheets have been synthesized as a sonosensitizer. The doping of Ni decreases the band gap that is testified by density functional theory to increase the US-generated charges. Under US irradiation, Ni-CoO@PEG nanosheets produce 1O2 as an active species that is determined by dissolved O2 and electrons. Moreover, the doping also brings abundant oxygen vacancies (OV) that not only are in favor of efficient separation of electron-hole but also enhance the interaction toward O2, boosting 1O2 generation. In addition, Ni-CoO@PEG shows robust mimic catalase (CAT) and peroxidase characterization to effectively improve the intratumor O2 content and oxidation stress. What is more, the nanosheets also possess glucose oxidase activity that can consume glucose to elevate the H2O2/acid level and to block the intracellular energy supply. The tandem nanozyme behaviors would further regulate the tumor microenvironment for assisting anticancer treatment. It is noted that Ni-CoO@PEG reveals a novel half-metallic feature endowing great magnetism and magnetic resonance imaging capacity. The above synergistic treatments exhibit outstanding anticancer performance that also evokes antitumor immunity to suppress metastasis and recurrence, efficiently.

Abstract
Hypoxia is a negative prognostic indicator of solid tumors, which not only changes the survival state of tumors and increases their invasiveness but also remarkably reduces the sensitivity of tumors to treatments such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy. Thus, developing therapeutic strategies to alleviate tumor hypoxia has recently been considered an extremely valuable target in oncology. In this review, nanotechnological strategies to elevate oxygen levels in tumor therapy in recent years are summarized, including (I) improving the hypoxic tumor microenvironment, (II) oxygen delivery to hypoxic tumors, and (III) oxygen generation in hypoxic tumors. Finally, the challenges and prospects of these nanotechnological strategies for alleviating tumor hypoxia are presented.

Abstract
Biomedical imaging technology, which allows us to peer deeply within living subjects and visually explore the delivery and distribution of agents in living things, is producing tremendous opportunities for the early diagnosis and precise therapy of diseases. In this feature article, based on reviewing the latest representative examples of progress together with our recent efforts in the bioimaging field, we intend to introduce three typical kinds of non-invasive imaging technologies, i.e., fluorescence, ultrasonic and photoacoustic imaging, in which optical and/or acoustic signals are employed for analyzing various diseases. In particular, fluorescence imaging possesses a series of outstanding advantages, such as high temporal resolution, as well as rapid and sensitive feedback. Hence, in the first section, we will introduce the latest studies on developing novel fluorescence imaging methods for imaging bacterial infections, cancer and lymph node metastasis in a long-term and real-time manner. However, the issues of imaging penetration depth induced by photon scattering and light attenuation of biological tissue limit their widespread in vivo imaging applications. Taking advantage of the excellect penetration depth of acoustic signals, ultrasonic imaging has been widely applied for determining the location, size and shape of organs, identifying normal and abnormal tissues, as well as confirming the edges of lesions in hospitals. Thus, in the second section, we will briefly summarize recent advances in ultrasonic imaging techniques for diagnosing diseases in deep tissues. Nevertheless, the absence of lesion targeting and dependency on a professional technician may lead to the possibility of false-positive diagnosis. By combining the merits of both optical and acoustic signals, newly-developed photoacoustic imaging, simultaneously featuring higher temporal and spatial resolution with good sensitivity, as well as deeper penetration depth, is discussed in the third secretion. In the final part, we further discuss the major challenges and prospects for developing imaging technology for accurate disease diagnosis. We believe that these non-invasive imaging technologies will introduce a new perspective for the precise diagnosis of various diseases in the future.

Nucleic acid drug vectors for diagnosis and treatment of brain diseases. Signal Transduct Target Ther 2023; 8:39. [PMID: 36650130 PMCID: PMC9844208 DOI: 10.1038/s41392-022-01298-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Nucleic acid drugs have the advantages of rich target selection, simple in design, good and enduring effect. They have been demonstrated to have irreplaceable superiority in brain disease treatment, while vectors are a decisive factor in therapeutic efficacy. Strict physiological barriers, such as degradation and clearance in circulation, blood-brain barrier, cellular uptake, endosome/lysosome barriers, release, obstruct the delivery of nucleic acid drugs to the brain by the vectors. Nucleic acid drugs against a single target are inefficient in treating brain diseases of complex pathogenesis. Differences between individual patients lead to severe uncertainties in brain disease treatment with nucleic acid drugs. In this Review, we briefly summarize the classification of nucleic acid drugs. Next, we discuss physiological barriers during drug delivery and universal coping strategies and introduce the application methods of these universal strategies to nucleic acid drug vectors. Subsequently, we explore nucleic acid drug-based multidrug regimens for the combination treatment of brain diseases and the construction of the corresponding vectors. In the following, we address the feasibility of patient stratification and personalized therapy through diagnostic information from medical imaging and the manner of introducing contrast agents into vectors. Finally, we take a perspective on the future feasibility and remaining challenges of vector-based integrated diagnosis and gene therapy for brain diseases.

Abstract
Targeted nanoparticles of different origins are considered as new-generation diagnostic and therapeutic tools. However, there are no targeted drug formulations within the composition of nanoparticles approved by the FDA for use in the clinic, which is associated with the insufficient effectiveness of the developed candidates, the difficulties of their biotechnological production, and inadequate batch-to-batch reproducibility. Targeted protein self-assembling nanoparticles circumvent this problem since proteins are encoded in DNA and the final protein product is produced in only one possible way. We believe that the combination of the endless biomedical potential of protein carriers as nanoparticles and the standardized protein purification protocols will make significant progress in "magic bullet" creation possible, bringing modern biomedicine to a new level. In this review, we are focused on the currently existing platforms for targeted self-assembling protein nanoparticles based on transferrin, lactoferrin, casein, lumazine synthase, albumin, ferritin, and encapsulin proteins, as well as on proteins from magnetosomes and virus-like particles. The applications of these self-assembling proteins for targeted delivery in vitro and in vivo are thoroughly discussed, including bioimaging applications and different therapeutic approaches, such as chemotherapy, gene delivery, and photodynamic and photothermal therapy. A critical assessment of these protein platforms' efficacy in biomedicine is provided and possible problems associated with their further development are described.

Abstract
One of the biggest health related issues in the twenty-first century is cancer. The current therapeutic platforms have not advanced enough to keep up with the number of rising cases. The traditional therapeutic approaches frequently fail to produce the desired outcomes. Therefore, developing new and more potent remedies is crucial. Recently, investigating microorganisms as potential anti-cancer treatments have garnered a lot of attention. Tumor-targeting microorganisms are more versatile at inhibiting cancer than the majority of standard therapies. Bacteria preferentially gather and thrive inside tumors, where they can trigger anti-cancer immune responses. They can be further trained to generate and distribute anticancer drugs based on clinical requirements using straightforward genetic engineering approaches. To improve clinical outcomes, therapeutic strategies utilizing live tumor-targeting bacteria can be used either alone or in combination with existing anticancer treatments. On the other hand, oncolytic viruses that target cancer cells, gene therapy via viral vectors, and viral immunotherapy are other popular areas of biotechnological investigation. Therefore, viruses serve as a unique candidate for anti-tumor therapy. This chapter describes the role of microbes, primarily bacteria and viruses in anti-cancer therapeutics. The various approaches to utilizing microbes in cancer therapy are discussed and examples of microorganisms that are now in use or that are undergoing experimental research are briefly discussed. We further point out the hurdles and the prospects of microbes-based remedies for cancer treatment.

Microfluidic Synthesis of the Tumor Microenvironment-Responsive Nanosystem for Type-I Photodynamic Therapy. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27238386.

Abstract
Type I photosensitizers with aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIE-gens) have the ability to generate high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which have a good application prospect in cancer photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, the encapsulation and delivery of AIE molecules are unsatisfactory and seriously affect the efficiency of a practical therapy. Faced with this issue, we synthesized the metal-organic framework (MOF) in one step using the microfluidic integration technology and encapsulated TBP-2 (an AIE molecule) into the MOF to obtain the composite nanomaterial ZT. Material characterization showed that the prepared ZT had stable physical and chemical properties and controllable size and morphology. After being endocytosed by tumor cells, ZT was degraded in response to the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME), and then TBP-2 molecules were released. After stimulation by low-power white light, a large amount of •OH and H2O2 was generated by TBP-2 through type I PDT, thereby achieving a tumor-killing effect. Further in vitro cell experiments showed good biocompatibility of the prepared ZT. To the best of our knowledge, this report is the first on the microfluidic synthesis of multifunctional MOF for type I PDT in response to the TME. Overall, the preparation of ZT by the microfluidic synthesis method provides new insight into cancer therapy.

Abstract
Magnetosomes intracellularly biomineralized by Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are membrane-enveloped nanoparticles of the magnetic minerals magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4). MTB thrive in oxic-anoxic interface and exhibit magnetotaxis due to the presence of magnetosomes. Because of the unique characteristic and bionavigation inspiration of magnetosomes, MTB has been a subject of study focused on by biologists, medical pharmacologists, geologists, and physicists since the discovery. We herein first briefly review the features of MTB and magnetosomes. The recent insights into the process and mechanism for magnetosome biomineralization including iron uptake, magnetosome membrane invagination, iron mineralization and magnetosome chain assembly are summarized in detail. Additionally, the current research progress in biotechnological applications of magnetosomes is also elucidated, such as drug delivery, MRI image contrast, magnetic hyperthermia, wastewater treatment, and cell separation. This review would expand our understanding of biomineralization and biotechnological applications of bacterial magnetosomes.

Abstract
The control of heat at the nanoscale via the excitation of localized surface plasmons in nanoparticles (NPs) irradiated with light holds great potential in several fields (cancer therapy, catalysis, desalination). To date, most thermoplasmonic applications are based on Ag and Au NPs, whose cost of raw materials inevitably limits the scalability for industrial applications requiring large amounts of photothermal NPs, as in the case of desalination plants. On the other hand, alternative nanomaterials proposed so far exhibit severe restrictions associated with the insufficient photothermal efficacy in the visible, the poor chemical stability, and the challenging scalability. Here, it is demonstrated the outstanding potential of NiSe and CoSe topological nodal-line semimetals for thermoplasmonics. The anisotropic dielectric properties of NiSe and CoSe activate additional plasmonic resonances. Specifically, NiSe and CoSe NPs support multiple localized surface plasmons in the optical range, resulting in a broadband matching with sunlight radiation spectrum. Finally, it is validated the proposed NiSe and CoSe-based thermoplasmonic platform by implementing solar-driven membrane distillation by adopting NiSe and CoSe nanofillers embedded in a polymeric membrane for seawater desalination. Remarkably, replacing Ag with NiSe and CoSe for solar membrane distillation increases the transmembrane flux by 330% and 690%, respectively. Correspondingly, costs of raw materials are also reduced by 24 and 11 times, respectively. The results pave the way for the advent of NiSe and CoSe for efficient and sustainable thermoplasmonics and related applications exploiting sunlight within the paradigm of the circular blue economy.

Abstract
The components and hospitable properties of tumor microenvironment (TME) are associated with tumor progression. Recently, TME modulating vectors and strategies have garnished significant attention in cancer therapy. Although a pilot work has reviewed TME regulation via nanoparticle-based delivery systems, there is no systematical review that summarizes the natural bacteria-based anti-tumor system to modulate TME. In this review, we conclude the strategies of bacterial carriers (including whole bacteria, bacterial skeleton and bacterial components) to regulate TME from the perspective of TME components and hospitable properties, and the clinical trials of bacteria-mediated cancer therapy. Current challenges and future prospects for the design of bacteria-based carriers are also proposed that provide critical insights into this natural delivery system and related translation from the bench to the clinic.

Abstract
Phototherapy, such as photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), refers to the therapeutic strategy using a visible or near-infrared (NIR) laser to generate free radicals or heat for noninvasive and localized tumor treatment. However, limited by the low photoconversion efficiency of therapeutic agents, a single treatment method can hardly lead to complete tumor ablation, even when enhancing the power density of the laser and/or prolonging the irradiation duration. In this work, copper ion and ruthenium complex codoped polydopamine nanoparticles (Cu(II)/LRu/PDA NPs) are designed for PDT/PTT dual-mode therapy. The doped LRu in the NPs can generate reactive oxygen species under visible laser irradiation and enable PDT. Because of the strong absorption in the NIR region, PDA can not only generate heat for PTT under irradiation but also be used for photoacoustic tomography (PAT) imaging. Meanwhile, the doping of Cu(II) in the NPs through the coordination with PDA facilitates T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Thus, MR/PAT imaging-guided PDT/PTT dual-mode therapy is achieved. The in vivo experiments indicate that the Cu(II)/LRu/PDA NPs can accumulate in HeLa tumors with a retention rate up to 8.34%ID/g. MR/PAT imaging can clearly identify the location and boundary of the tumors, permitting precise guidance for phototherapy. Under the combined effect of PDT and PTT, a complete ablation of HeLa tumors is achieved. The current work provides an alternative nanoplatform for performing PDT/PTT dual-mode therapy, which can be further guided by MR/PAT imaging.
