Abstract
Together, tumor and virus-specific tissue-resident CD8+ memory T cells (TRMs) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can provide rapid frontline immune surveillance. The quantity and activity of CD8+ TRMs were correlated with the relapse-free survival of patients with improved health. However, HBV-specific CD8+ TRMs have a more exhausted phenotype and respond more actively under anti-PDL1 or PD1 treatment of HBV+HCC patients. Vaccination strategies that induce a strong and sustained CD8+ TRMs response are quite promising. Herein, a biodegradable poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) microsphere and nanosphere particle (PLGA N.M.P) delivery system co-assembled by anti-PD1 antibodies (aPD1) and loaded with ovalbumin (OVA-aPD1 N.M.P) was fabricated and characterized for size (200 nm and 1 μm diameter), charge (-15 mV), and loading efficiencies of OVA (238 μg mg-1 particles) and aPD1 (40 μg mg-1 particles). OVA-aPD1 N.M.P could stimulate the maturation of BMDCs and enhance the antigen uptake and presentation by 2-fold compared to free OVA. The nanoparticles also induced the activation of macrophages (RAW 264.7) to produce a high level of cytokines, including TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-10. In vivo stimulation of mice using OVA-aPD1 N.M.P robustly enhanced IFN-γ-producing-CD8+ T cell infiltration in tumor tissues and the secretion of IgG and IgG2a/IgG1 antibodies. OVA-aPD1 N.M.P delivered OVA to increase the activation and proliferation of OVA-specific CD8+ TRMs, and its combination with anti-PD1 antibodies promoted complete tumor rejection by the reversal of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cell exhaustion. Thus, PLGA N.M.P could induce a strong CD8+ TRMs response, further highlighting its therapeutic potential in enhancing an antitumor immune response.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibody-based therapeutics have achieved remarkable success in treating a wide range of human diseases. However, conventional systemic delivery methods have limitations in insufficient target tissue permeability, high costs, repeated administrations, etc. Novel technologies have been developed to address these limitations and further enhance antibody therapy. Local antibody delivery via respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, eye and blood-brain barrier have shown promising results in increasing local concentrations and overcoming barriers. Nucleic acid-encoded antibodies expressed from plasmid DNA, viral vectors or mRNA delivery platforms also offer advantages over recombinant proteins such as sustained expression, rapid onset, and lower costs. This review summarizes recent advances in antibody delivery methods and highlights innovative technologies that have potential to expand therapeutic applications of antibodies.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, significant strides have been made in understanding the pivotal roles that chemokine networks play in tumor biology. These networks, comprising chemokines and their receptors, wield substantial influence over cancer immune regulation and therapeutic outcomes. As a result, targeting these chemokine systems has emerged as a promising avenue for cancer immunotherapy. However, therapies targeting chemokines face significant challenges in solid tumor treatment, due to the complex and fragile of the chemokine networks. A nuanced comprehension of the complicacy and functions of chemokine networks, and their impact on the tumor microenvironment, is essential for optimizing their therapeutic utility in oncology. This review elucidates the ways in which chemokine networks interact with cancer immunity and tumorigenesis. We particularly elaborate on recent innovations in manipulating these networks for cancer treatment. The review also highlights future challenges and explores potential biomaterial strategies for clinical applications.

Abstract
The high selectivity and affinity of antibodies toward their antigens have made them a highly valuable tool in disease therapy, diagnosis, and basic research. A plethora of chemical and genetic approaches have been devised to make antibodies accessible to more "undruggable" targets and equipped with new functions of illustrating or regulating biological processes more precisely. In this Review, in addition to introducing how naked antibodies and various antibody conjugates (such as antibody-drug conjugates, antibody-oligonucleotide conjugates, antibody-enzyme conjugates, etc.) work in therapeutic applications, special attention has been paid to how chemistry tools have helped to optimize the therapeutic outcome (i.e., with enhanced efficacy and reduced side effects) or facilitate the multifunctionalization of antibodies, with a focus on emerging fields such as targeted protein degradation, real-time live-cell imaging, catalytic labeling or decaging with spatiotemporal control as well as the engagement of antibodies inside cells. With advances in modern chemistry and biotechnology, well-designed antibodies and their derivatives via size miniaturization or multifunctionalization together with efficient delivery systems have emerged, which have gradually improved our understanding of important biological processes and paved the way to pursue novel targets for potential treatments of various diseases.

Abstract
Immunotherapy continues to be in the spotlight of oncology therapy research in the past few years and has been proven to be a promising option to modulate one's innate and adaptive immune systems for cancer treatment. However, the poor delivery efficiency of immune agents, potential off-target toxicity, and nonimmunogenic tumors significantly limit its effectiveness and extensive application. Recently, emerging biomaterial-based drug carriers, including but not limited to immune cells and bacteria, are expected to be potential candidates to break the dilemma of immunotherapy, with their excellent natures of intrinsic tumor tropism and immunomodulatory activity. More than that, the tiny vesicles and physiological components derived from them have similar functions with their source cells due to the inheritance of various surface signal molecules and proteins. Herein, we presented representative examples about the latest advances of biomaterial-based delivery systems employed in cancer immunotherapy, including immune cells, bacteria, and their derivatives. Simultaneously, opportunities and challenges of immune cells and bacteria-based carriers are discussed to provide reference for their future application in cancer immunotherapy.

Development of an Antibody Delivery Method for Cancer Treatment by Combining Ultrasound with Therapeutic Antibody-Modified Nanobubbles Using Fc-Binding Polypeptide.

Abstract
A key challenge in treating solid tumors is that the tumor microenvironment often inhibits the penetration of therapeutic antibodies into the tumor, leading to reduced therapeutic efficiency. It has been reported that the combination of ultrasound-responsive micro/nanobubble and therapeutic ultrasound (TUS) enhances the tissue permeability and increases the efficiency of delivery of macromolecular drugs to target tissues. In this study, to facilitate efficient therapeutic antibody delivery to tumors using this combination system, we developed therapeutic antibody-modified nanobubble (NBs) using an Fc-binding polypeptide that can quickly load antibodies to nanocarriers; since the polypeptide was derived from Protein G. TUS exposure to this Herceptin®-modified NBs (Her-NBs) was followed by evaluation of the antibody's own ADCC activity, resulting the retained activity. Moreover, the utility of combining therapeutic antibody-modified NBs and TUS exposure as an antibody delivery system for cancer therapy was assessed in vivo. The Her-NBs + TUS group had a higher inhibitory effect than the Herceptin and Her-NBs groups. Overall, these results suggest that the combination of therapeutic antibody-modified NBs and TUS exposure can enable efficient antibody drug delivery to tumors, while retaining the original antibody activity. Hence, this system has the potential to maximize the therapeutic effects in antibody therapy for solid cancers.

Abstract
Many recent studies focus on the pulmonary delivery of vaccines as it is needle-free, safe, and effective. Inhaled vaccines enhance systemic and mucosal immunization but still faces many limitations that can be resolved using polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs). This review focuses on the use of properties of PNPs, specifically chitosan and PLGA to be used in the delivery of vaccines by inhalation. It also aims to highlight that PNPs have adjuvant properties by themselves that induce cellular and humeral immunogenicity. Further, different factors influence the behavior of PNP in vivo such as size, morphology, and charge are discussed. Finally, some of the primary challenges facing PNPs are reviewed including formulation instability, reproducibility, device-related factors, patient-related factors, and industrial-level scale-up. Herein, the most important variables of PNPs that shall be defined in any PNPs to be used for pulmonary delivery are defined. Further, this study focuses on the most popular polymers used for this purpose.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been widely researched as drug delivery systems due to their intrinsic porous structures. Herein, machine learning (ML) technologies were applied for the screening of MOFs with high drug loading capacity. To achieve this, first, a comprehensive dataset was gathered, including 40 data points from more than 100 different publications. The organic linkers, metal ions, and the functional groups, as well as the surface area and the pore volume of the investigated MOFs, were chosen as the model’s inputs, and the output was the ibuprofen (IBU) loading capacity. Thereafter, various advanced and powerful machine learning algorithms, such as support vector regression (SVR), random forest (RF), adaptive boosting (AdaBoost), and categorical boosting (CatBoost), were employed to predict the ibuprofen loading capacity of MOFs. The coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.70, 0.72, 0.66, and 0.76 were obtained for the SVR, RF, AdaBoost, and CatBoost approaches, respectively. Among all the algorithms, CatBoost was the most reliable, exhibiting superior performance regarding the sparse matrices and categorical features. Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) analysis was employed to explore the impact of the eigenvalues of the model’s outputs. Our initial results indicate that this methodology is a well generalized, straightforward, and cost-effective method that can be applied not only for the prediction of IBU loading capacity, but also in many other biomaterials projects.

Abstract
Silk fibroin (SF) is a promising biomaterial due to its good biocompatibility, easy availability, and high mechanical properties. Compared with mulberry silk fibroin (MSF), nonmulberry silk fibroin (NSF) isolated from typical nonmulberry silkworm silk exhibits unique arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequences with favorable cell adhesion enhancing effect. This inherent property probably makes the NSF more suitable for cell culture and tissue regeneration-related applications. Accordingly, various types of NSF-based biomaterials, such as particles, films, fiber mats, and 3D scaffolds, are constructed and their application potential in different biomedical fields is extensively investigated. Based on these promising NSF biomaterials, this review firstly makes a systematical comparison between the molecular structure and properties of MSF and typical NSF and highlights the unique properties of NSF. In addition, we summarize the effective fabrication strategies from degummed nonmulberry silk fibers to regenerated NSF-based biomaterials with controllable formats and their recent application progresses in cell behavior regulation and tissue regeneration. Finally, current challenges and future perspectives for the fabrication and application of NSF-based biomaterials are discussed. Related research and perspectives may provide valuable references for designing and modifying effective NSF-based and other natural biomaterials. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: There exist many reviews about mulberry silk fibroin (MSF) biomaterials and their biomedical applications, while that about nonmulberry silk fibroin (NSF) biomaterials is scarce. Compared with MSF, NSF exhibits unique arginine-glycine-aspartic acid sequences with promising cell adhesion enhancing effect, which makes NSF more suitable for cell culture and tissue regeneration related applications. Focusing on these advanced NSF biomaterials, this review has systematically compared the structure and properties of MSF and NSF, and emphasized the unique properties of NSF. Following that, the effective construction strategies for NSF-based biomaterials are summarized, and their recent applications in cell behavior regulations and tissue regenerations are highlighted. Furthermore, current challenges and future perspectives for the fabrication and application of NSF-based biomaterials were discussed.

Abstract
Accumulating recent evidence indicates that the human microbiome plays essential roles in pathophysiological states, including cancer. The tumor microbiome, an emerging concept that has not yet been clearly defined, has been proven to influence both cancer development and therapy through complex mechanisms. Small molecule metabolites produced by the tumor microbiome through unique biosynthetic pathways can easily diffuse into tissues and penetrate cell membranes through transporters or free diffusion, thus remodeling the signaling pathways of cancer and immune cells by interacting with biomacromolecules. Targeting tumor microbiome metabolism could offer a novel perspective for not only understanding cancer progression but also developing new strategies for the treatment of multiple cancer types. Here, we summarize recent advances regarding the role the tumor microbiome plays as a game changer in cancer biology. Specifically, the metabolites produced by the tumor microbiome and their potential effects on the cancer development therapy are discussed to understand the importance of the microbial metabolism in the tumor microenvironment. Finally, new anticancer therapeutic strategies that target tumor microbiome metabolism are reviewed and proposed to provide new insights in clinical applications.

Abstract
Breast cancer is prevalent and diverse with significantly high incidence and mortality rates. Curcumin (Cur), a polyphenol component of turmeric, has been widely recognized as having strong anti-breast cancer activity. However, its anti-cancer efficiency is largely impaired by some of its concomitant negative properties, including its poor solubility, low cellular uptake, and severe reported side effects. Hence, the necessity arises to develop a novel low-toxic and high-efficiency targeting drug delivery system (DDS). In this study, we developed a pH-sensitive tumor self-targeting DDS (Cur@HFn) based on self-assembled HFn loaded with Cur, in which Cur was encapsulated into HFn cavity by using a disassembly/reassembly strategy, and the Cur@HFn was characterized by ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). A variety of breast cancer cell models were built to evaluate cytotoxicity, apoptosis, targeting properties, and uptake mechanism of the Cur@HFn. The pharmacodynamics was also evaluated in tumor (4T1) bearing mice after intravenous injection. In vitro release experiments showed that Cur@HFn is pH sensitive and shows sustained drug release under slightly acidic conditions. Compared with Cur, Cur@HFn has stronger cytotoxicity, cellular uptake, and targeting performance. Our study supported that Cur@HFn has a higher in vivo therapeutic effect and lower systemic toxicity. The safety evaluation results indicated that Cur@HFn has no hematotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and nephrotoxicity. The findings of the present study showed that the Cur@HFn has been successfully prepared and has potential application value in the treatment of breast cancer.

Abstract
Introduction Cancer of the bladder is one of the most common and life-threatening. Compared with traditional delivery methods, intravesical administration reduces the amount of drugs required, increases the amount of drugs reaching the lesion site, and minimizes systemic exposure to therapeutic agents. To overcome the limitations of urinary voiding, low urothelium permeability, and intermittent catheterization for large dilution and irrigation of drugs in the bladder, magnetic and photothermal-responsive folate receptor-targeted thermal liposomes (FA-TMLs) were designed for the targeted delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) to bladder cancer cells. Methods Through a microfluidic mixer chip, the magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), gold nanorods (GNRs) and DOX were encapsulated in folate-modified thermosensitive liposomes to form FA-TMLs@MNPs-GNRs-DOX. DLS, TEM, DSC, and magnetic hysteresis loop were used to characterize the construction of FA-TMLs@MNPs-GNRs-DOX. Results FA-TMLs@MNPs-GNRs-DOX had a size of about 230 nm and exhibited superparamagnetic properties with the saturation magnetization of 20 emu/g. The DOX loading capacity was as high as 0.57 mg/mL. Additionally, drug release of the FA-TMLs@MNPs-GNRs-DOX could be controlled by temperature change through the photothermal effect. A 980 nm laser beam was selectively irradiated on the FA-TMLs@MNPs-GNRs-DOX to trigger the structural changes of the FA-TMLs, and an average of 95% of the drug was released after 3 hours. The results of cell uptake experiments reveal indicated that FA-TMLs@MNPs-GNRs-DOX were able to specifically bind folate-receptor-positive cells and exhibited toxicity to bladder tumor cells. Conclusion The present results suggest FA-TMLs@MNPs-GNRs-DOX have a promising multifunctional response and can act as an ideal multifunctional drug delivery system (DDS) for the treatment of bladder tumors.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is showing great potential in the treatment of cancer diseases, and photosensitizers play crucial roles in absorbing the energy of light and generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) during PDT. Most of the photosensitizers bearing macrocyclic structures have strong hydrophobicity and suffer from the π-π interaction and undesired aggregation caused quenching (ACQ), which severely limit the PDT efficacy. Moreover, the continuous oxygen consumption during PDT also leads to the upregulated expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), which can aggravate the growth of tumors. To overcome the abovementioned problems, polymerized photosensitizers repelled by flexible thioketal linkers were designed and synthesized using a multicomponent polymerization (MCP) method to afford the poly-porphyrins with high molecular weight (Mw > 20 000 g/mol) under room temperature. The ACQ effect could be significantly inhibited by introducing flexible chains and increasing Mw, leading to the improvement in the singlet oxygen quantum yield and phototoxicity simultaneously. An HIF-1α inhibitor, Lificiguat (YC-1) was synthesized as a chemodrug and codelivered with poly-porphyrins to decrease the expression of HIF-1α and inhibit tumor growth under hypoxia. With the synergistic PDT and chemotherapy, poly-porphyrin/YC-1 micelles showed excellent therapeutic antitumor efficacy both in vitro and in vivo.
