Abstract
The invention of silica-based bioactive glass in the late 1960s has sparked significant interest in exploring a wide range of silicon-containing biomaterials from the macroscale to the nanoscale. Over the past few decades, these biomaterials have been extensively explored for their potential in diverse biomedical applications, considering their remarkable bioactivity, excellent biocompatibility, facile surface functionalization, controllable synthesis, etc. However, to expedite the clinical translation and the unexpected utilization of silicon-composed nanomedicine and biomaterials, it is highly desirable to achieve a thorough comprehension of their characteristics and biological effects from an overall perspective. In this review, we provide a comprehensive discussion on the state-of-the-art progress of silicon-composed biomaterials, including their classification, characteristics, fabrication methods, and versatile biomedical applications. Additionally, we highlight the multi-dimensional design of both pure and hybrid silicon-composed nanomedicine and biomaterials and their intrinsic biological effects and interactions with biological systems. Their extensive biomedical applications span from drug delivery and bioimaging to therapeutic interventions and regenerative medicine, showcasing the significance of their rational design and fabrication to meet specific requirements and optimize their theranostic performance. Additionally, we offer insights into the future prospects and potential challenges regarding silicon-composed nanomedicine and biomaterials. By shedding light on these exciting research advances, we aspire to foster further progress in the biomedical field and drive the development of innovative silicon-composed nanomedicine and biomaterials with transformative applications in biomedicine.

Biomater Res 2022; 26:7. [PMID: 35216625 PMCID: PMC8876184 DOI: 10.1186/s40824-022-00253-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2021] [Accepted: 01/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background A considerable number of studies has been carried out to develop alloplastic bone graft materials such as hydroxyapatite (HAP) that mimic the hierarchical structure of natural bones with multiple levels of pores: macro-, micro-, and nanopores. Although nanopores are known to play many essential roles in natural bones, only a few studies have focused on HAPs containing them; none of those studies investigated the functions of nanopores in biological systems. Method We developed a simple yet powerful method to introduce nanopores into alloplastic HAP bone graft materials in large quantities by simply pressing HAP nanoparticles and sintering them at a low temperature. Results The size of nanopores in HAP scaffolds can be controlled between 16.5 and 30.2 nm by changing the sintering temperature. When nanopores with a size of ~ 30.2 nm, similar to that of nanopores in natural bones, are introduced into HAP scaffolds, the mechanical strength and cell proliferation and differentiation rates are significantly increased. The developed HAP scaffolds containing nanopores (SNPs) are biocompatible, with negligible erythema and inflammatory reactions. In addition, they enhance the bone regeneration when are implanted into a rabbit model. Furthermore, the bone regeneration efficiency of the HAP-based SNP is better than that of a commercially available bone graft material. Conclusion Nanopores of HAP scaffolds are very important for improving the bone regeneration efficiency and may be one of the key factors to consider in designing highly efficient next-generation alloplastic bone graft materials.

Effects on immunization of the physicochemical parameters of particles as vaccine carriers. Drug Discov Today 2021; 26:1712-1720.

Abstract
Vaccination has milestone significance for the prophylactic and complete elimination of infectious diseases. However, combating malignant infectious diseases, such as Ebola or HIV, remains a challenge. It is necessary to explore novel technologies to facilitate the immune profile of vaccines. Particles exhibit a remarkable ability to modulate sophisticated immunity because of their intrinsic adjuvanticity or codelivery with immunostimulatory molecules. Recently, particles have been broadly investigated as carriers for vaccine delivery. Their physicochemical parameters (e.g., size, shape, and surface chemistry) significantly influence their in vivo fate and subsequent immunization effect. Herein, we highlight several types of particulate carrier used in the delivery of vaccines. We also examine how to engineer the physical and chemical characteristics of particulate adjuvants to make them robust candidates for a versatile vaccine delivery platform.

Abstract
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) vaccines are a promising cancer immunotherapy approach. However, effective delivery of DNA to antigen-presenting cells (e.g., dendritic cells (DCs)) for the induction of an adaptive immune response is limited. Conventional DNA delivery via intramuscular, intradermal, and subcutaneous injection by hypodermal needles shows a low potency and immunogenicity. Here, we propose the enhanced cancer DNA vaccine by direct transfection to the high number of DCs recruited into the chemoattractant-loaded injectable mesoporous silica microrods (MSRs). Subcutaneous administration of the MSRs mixed with tumor-antigen coding DNA polyplexes resulted in DC recruitment in the macroporous space of the scaffold formed by the spontaneous assembly of high-aspect-ratio MSRs, thereby allowing for enhanced cellular uptake of antigen-coded DNA by host DCs. The MSR scaffolds delivering the DNA vaccine trigger a more robust DC activation, antigen-specific CD8+ T cell response, and Th1 immune response compared to the bolus DNA vaccine. Additionally, the immunological memory can be induced with a single administration of the vaccine. The combination of the vaccination and antiprogrammed cell death-1 antibody significantly eliminates established lung metastasis. These results indicate that MSRs serve as a powerful platform for DNA vaccine delivery to DCs for effective cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Personalized cancer vaccines (PCVs) are reinvigorating vaccine strategies in cancer immunotherapy. In contrast to adoptive T-cell therapy and checkpoint blockade, the PCV strategy modulates the innate and adaptive immune systems with broader activation to redeploy antitumor immunity with individualized tumor-specific antigens (neoantigens). Following a sequential scheme of tumor biopsy, mutation analysis, and epitope prediction, the administration of neoantigens with synthetic long peptide (SLP) or mRNA formulations dramatically improves the population and activity of antigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Despite the promising prospect of PCVs, there is still great potential for optimizing prevaccination procedures and vaccine potency. In particular, the arduous development of tumor-associated antigen (TAA)-based vaccines provides valuable experience and rational principles for augmenting vaccine potency which is expected to advance PCV through the design of adjuvants, delivery systems, and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) reversion since current personalized vaccination simply admixes antigens with adjuvants. Considering the broader application of TAA-based vaccine design, these two strategies complement each other and can lead to both personalized and universal therapeutic methods. Chemical strategies provide vast opportunities for (1) exploring novel adjuvants, including synthetic molecules and materials with optimizable activity, (2) constructing efficient and precise delivery systems to avoid systemic diffusion, improve biosafety, target secondary lymphoid organs, and enhance antigen presentation, and (3) combining bioengineering methods to innovate improvements in conventional vaccination, "smartly" re-educate the TME, and modulate antitumor immunity. As chemical strategies have proven versatility, reliability, and universality in the design of T cell- and B cell-based antitumor vaccines, the union of such numerous chemical methods in vaccine construction is expected to provide new vigor and vitality in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Previously, high-aspect- ratio ribbon-like microconfetti (MC) composed of acetalated dextran (Ace-DEX) have been shown to form a subcutaneous depot for sustained drug release. In this study, MC were explored as an injectable vaccine platform. Production of MC by electrospinning followed by high-shear homogenization allowed for precise control over MC fabrication. Three distinct sizes of MC, small (0.67 × 10.2 μm2), medium (1.28 × 20.7 μm2), and large (5.67 × 90.2 μm2), were fabricated and loaded with the adjuvant, resiquimod. Steady release rates of resiquimod were observed from MC, indicating their ability to create an immunostimulatory depot in vivo. Resiquimod-loaded MC stimulated inflammatory cytokine production in bone marrow-derived dendritic cells without incurring additional cytotoxicity in vitro. Interestingly, even medium and large MC were able to be internalized by antigen-presenting cells and facilitate antigen presentation when ovalbumin was adsorbed onto their surface. After subcutaneous injection in vivo with adsorbed ovalbumin, blank MC of all sizes were found to stimulate a humoral response. Adjuvant activity of resiquimod was enhanced by loading it into MC and small- and medium-sized MC effectively induced a Th1-skewed immune response. Antigen co-delivered with adjuvant-loaded MC of various sizes illustrates a new potential vaccine platform.

Abstract
Although cancer immunotherapy is showing tremendous promise and has progressed to the clinic, it has only achieved sporadic efficacy, with only a fraction of patients benefitting from the therapy and with undesirable side effects due to poor selectivity and high doses. Localized delivery of immunomodulators to activate anticancer immunity in situ avoids overactivation of the systemic immune system and reduces side effects. Engineered biomaterials-implantable, injectable, or transdermal-fabricated into drug delivery devices are critical components for the development of localized cancer immunotherapies. In this review, we briefly summarize progress in the application of engineered biomaterials to the localized delivery of cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Large-scale decontamination of bisphenol A (BPA) from wastewater under field conditions is an urgent need because of the harmful toxic effects of BPA on living organisms. In this study, we report the fabrication of a three-dimensional (3D) hierarchically porous composite scaffold composed of mesoporous SBA-15 silica microrods and reduced graphene oxide (rGO-CD) functionalized with β-cyclodextrin (CD) and its application for BPA separation from contaminated water. The macroporous structure was achieved by sacrificial salt leaching, and the mesoporous structure was derived from the interparticle pores between compressed SBA-15 particles and intrinsic mesopores in SBA-15. The 3D hierarchical macroporous and mesoporous architecture of the scaffold enhances mass transport without any external forces, and the rGO-CD component provides good capture sites for BPA in solution via inclusion complexation between CD and BPA. The inorganic SBA-15 component of the scaffold also allows long-term operation of filters by increasing the mechanical strength of the scaffold. The hierarchically porous SBA-15/rGO-CD composite scaffold could separate BPA from contaminated water significantly better than the scaffold without rGO-CD in both batch and filter systems. Our study indicates that the functional hierarchically porous composite scaffold can be a potential material in wastewater treatment technology.

Abstract
Ex vivo manipulation of autologous antigen-presenting cells and their subsequent infusion back into the patient to dictate immune response is one of the promising strategies in cancer immunotherapy. Here, a 3D alginate scaffold embedded with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is proposed as a vaccine delivery platform for in situ long-term activation of antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DCs). High surface area and hydrophobic surface of the rGO component of the scaffold provide high loading and a very slow release of a loaded antigen, danger signal, and/or chemoattractant from the scaffold. This approach offers long-term bioavailability of the loaded cargo inside the scaffold for manipulation of recruited DCs. After mice are subcutaneously vaccinated with the macroporous alginate graphene scaffold (MAGS) loaded with ovalbumin (OVA) and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), this scaffold recruits a significantly high number of DCs, which present antigenic information via major histocompatibility complex class I for a long period. Furthermore, an MAGS loaded with OVA, GM-CSF, and CpG promotes production of activated T cells and memory T cells, leading to the suppression of OVA-expressing B16 melanoma tumor growth in a prophylactic vaccination experiment. This study indicates that an MAGS can be a strong candidate for long-term programming and modulating immune cells in vivo.

Abstract
At the intersection of the newly emerging fields of optoacoustic imaging and theranostic nanomedicine, promising clinical progress can be made in dismal prognosis of ovarian cancer. An acidic pH targeted wormhole mesoporous silica nanoparticle (V7-RUBY) was developed to serve as a novel tumor specific theranostic nanoparticle detectable using multispectral optoacoustic tomographic (MSOT) imaging. We report the synthesis of a small, < 40 nm, biocompatible asymmetric wormhole pore mesoporous silica core particle that has both large loading capacity and favorable release kinetics combined with tumor-specific targeting and gatekeeping. V7-RUBY exploits the acidic tumor microenvironment for tumor-specific targeting and tumor-specific release. In vitro, treatment with V7-RUBY containing either paclitaxel or carboplatin resulted in increased cell death at pH 6.6 in comparison to drug alone (p < 0.0001). In orthotopic ovarian xenograft mouse models, V7-RUBY containing IR780 was specifically detected within the tumor 7X and 4X higher than the liver and >10X higher than in the kidney using both multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT) imaging with secondary confirmation using near infrared fluorescence imaging (p < 0.0004). The V7-RUBY system carrying a cargo of either contrast agent or an anti-neoplastic drug has the potential to become a theranostic nanoparticle which can improve both diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer.
