Abstract
Lung metastasis of breast cancer is rapidly becoming a thorny problem in the treatment of patients with breast cancer and an obstacle to long-term survival. The main challenges of treatment are the absence of therapeutic targets and drug resistance, which promotes the development of nanotechnology in the diagnosis and treatment process. Taking advantage of the controllability and targeting of nanotechnology, drug-targeted delivery, controlled sustained release, multi-drug combination, improved drug efficacy, and reduced side effects can be realized in the process of the diagnosis and treatment of metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Several nanotechnology-based theranostic strategies have been investigated in breast cancer lung metastases (BCLM): targeted drug delivery, imaging analysis, immunotherapy, gene therapy, and multi-modality combined therapy, and some clinical applications are in the research phase. In this review, we present current nanotechnology-based diagnosis and treatment approaches for patients of incurable breast cancer with lung metastases, and we hope to be able to summarize more effective and promising nano-drug diagnosis and treatment systems that aim to improve the survival of patients with advanced MBC. We describe nanoplatform-based experimental studies and clinical trials targeting the tumor and the tumor microenvironment (TME) for BCLM to obtain more targeted treatment and in the future treatment steps for patients to provide a pioneering strategy.

These nanomaterials have been extensively explored as contrast agents for various imaging technologies such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), photoacoustic imaging (PAI), and near-infrared fluorescence imaging (NIR-FL). The use of these nanomaterials has significantly enhanced the contrast for precise tumor detection and localization. Moreover, MnNMs have shown responsiveness to the tumor microenvironment (TME), enabling innovative approaches to cancer treatment. This review provides an overview of the latest developments of MnNMs and their potential applications in tumor diagnosis and therapy. Finally, potential challenges and prospects of MnNMs in clinical applications are discussed.

Abstract
Despite significant advances in medical technology and antitumour treatments, the diagnosis and treatment of tumours have undergone remarkable transformations. Noninvasive phototherapy methods, such as photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), have gained significant interest in antitumour medicine. However, traditional photosensitisers or photothermal agents face challenges like immune system recognition, rapid clearance from the bloodstream, limited tumour accumulation, and phototoxicity concerns. Researchers combine photosensitisers or photothermal agents with natural cell membranes to overcome these obstacles to create a nano biomimetic therapeutic platform. When used to coat nanoparticles, red blood cells, platelets, cancer cells, macrophages, lymphocytes, and bacterial outer membranes could provide prolonged circulation, tumour targeting, immune stimulation, or antigenicity. This article covers the principles of cellular membrane biomimetic nanotechnology and phototherapy, along with recent advancements in applying nano biomimetic technology to PDT, PTT, PCT, and combined diagnosis and treatment. Furthermore, the challenges and issues of using nano biomimetic nanoparticles in phototherapy are discussed. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Currently, there has been significant progress in the field of cell membrane biomimetic technology. Researchers are exploring its potential application in tumor diagnosis and treatment through phototherapy. Scholars have conducted extensive research on combining cell membrane technology and phototherapy in anticancer diagnosis and treatment. This review aims to highlight the mechanisms of phototherapy and the latest advancements in single phototherapy (PTT, PDT) and combination phototherapy (PCT, PRT, and PIT), as well as diagnostic approaches. The review provides an overview of various cell membrane technologies, including RBC membranes, platelet membranes, macrophage cell membranes, tumour cell membranes, bacterial membranes, hybrid membranes, and their potential for anticancer applications under phototherapy. Lastly, the review discusses the challenges and future directions in this field.

Abstract
Conventional inorganic semiconductor nanoparticles have emerged as photothermal agents in photothermal therapy and as sonosensitizers in sonodynamic therapy. However, their weak drug-loading capabilities and the deficient techniques for multifunctional inorganic nanoparticles limit their applications. A bismuth-based gold-crowned nanocomposite (BACN) was rationally designed and successfully synthesized and could then be used to prepare nanoplatforms with excellent biocompatibilities for synergistic therapy and real-time imaging. Because of the constituent gold nanoparticles and pyridine, the nanoplatforms functioned as drug delivery vehicles, ultrasonically activated sonosensitizers, and photothermal agents. The BACNs exhibited excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (79.1%) in the second near-infrared biowindow (1064 nm). Cellular and mouse experiments demonstrated that under laser and ultrasound irradiation bufalin-loaded BACNs significantly reduced cancer cell counts and completely eradicated tumors, along with great therapeutic biosafety and no discernible recurrence. Additionally, BACNs were also used as contrast agents in computed tomography-photoacoustic imaging. The versatile BACN nanoplatform with multitreatment effects and trimodal imaging properties shows immense potential as an antitumor nanotherapeutic system.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) organic small molecule dyes (OSMDs) are effective photothermal agents for photothermal therapy (PTT) due to their advantages of low cost and toxicity, good biodegradation, and strong NIR absorption over a wide wavelength range. Nevertheless, OSMDs have limited applicability in PTT due to their low photothermal conversion efficiency and inadequate destruction of tumor regions that are nonirradiated by NIR light. However, they can also act as photosensitizers (PSs) to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can be further eradicated by using ROS-related therapies to address the above limitations of PTT. In this review, the synergistic mechanism, composition, and properties of photodynamic therapy (PDT)-PTT nanoplatforms were comprehensively discussed. In addition, some specific strategies for further improving the combined PTT and PDT based on OSMDs for cancer to completely eradicate cancer cells were outlined. These strategies include performing image-guided co-therapy, enhancing tumor infiltration, increasing H2O2 or O2 in the tumor microenvironment, and loading anticancer drugs onto nanoplatforms to enable combined therapy with phototherapy and chemotherapy. Meanwhile, the intriguing prospects and challenges of this treatment modality were also summarized with a focus on the future trends of its clinical application.

Abstract
Inducing cell death while simultaneously enhancing antitumor immune responses is a promising therapeutic approach for multiple cancers. Celastrol (Cel) and 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38) have contrasting physicochemical properties, but strong synergy in immunogenic cell death induction and anticancer activity. Herein, a hypoxia-sensitive nanosystem (CS@TAP) was designed to demonstrate effective immunotherapy for colorectal cancer by systemic delivery of an immunostimulatory chemotherapy combination. Furthermore, the combination of CS@TAP with anti-PD-L1 mAb (αPD-L1) exhibited a significant therapeutic benefit of delaying tumor growth and increased local doses of immunogenic signaling and T-cell infiltration, ultimately extending survival. We conclude that CS@TAP is an effective inducer of immunogenic cell death (ICD) in cancer immunotherapy. Therefore, this study provides an encouraging strategy to synergistically induce immunogenic cell death to enhance tumor cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) infiltration for anticancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Targeting the delivery of anti-cancer drugs to a tumor site is essential for effective treatment and to ensure minimal damage to healthy cells and tissues. In this work, a chitosan-based nanoplatform was constructed for combined photothermal therapy and chemotherapy of breast cancer. The pH-sensitive and biocompatible biopolymer chitosan (CS) was grafted with N-vinylcaprolactam (NVCL) and modified with biotin (Bio), imparting it with temperature sensitive property and also the ability for active targeting. The polymer self-assembled to give nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with indocyanine green (ICG) and doxorubicin (DOX). When the NPs are exposed to near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation, ICG converts the light to heat, inducing a significant phase transition in the NPs and facilitating the release of the drug cargo. In addition, the solubility of chitosan is increased in the slightly acidic microenvironment of the tumor site, which also promotes drug release. A detailed analysis of the NPs both in vitro and in vivo showed that the carrier system is biocompatible, while the drug-loaded NPs are selectively taken up by cancer cells. Particularly when augmented with NIR irradiation, this leads to potent cell death in vitro and also in an in vivo murine xenograft model of breast cancer.

Abstract
The clinical translation of therapeutic peptides is generally challenged by multiple issues involving absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion. In this study, a macrophage membrane-coated poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanodelivery system was developed to enhance the bioavailability of the somatostatin (SST) peptide, which faces the hurdles of short half-life and potential side effects in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis. Using a facile nanoprecipitation strategy, SST was loaded in the nanoparticles with an encapsulation efficiency (EE) and a loading efficiency (LE) of 73.68 ± 3.56% and 1.47 ± 0.07%, respectively. The final formulation of SST-loaded nanoparticles with the camouflage of macrophage membrane (MP-SST) showed a mean diameter of 151 ± 4 nm and an average zeta potential of −29.6 ± 0.3 mV, which were stable long term during storage. With an above 90% cell viability, a hemolysis level of about 2% (<5%) and a preference for being ingested by activated endothelial cells compared to macrophages, the membrane−polymer hybrid nanoparticle showed biocompatibility and targeting capability in vitro. After being intravenously administered to mice with chronic pancreatitis, the MP-SST increased the content of SST in the serum (123.6 ± 13.6 pg/mL) and pancreas (1144.9 ± 206.2 pg/g) compared to the treatment of (Dulbecco’s phosphate-buffered saline) DPBS (61.7 ± 6.0 pg/mL in serum and 740.2 ± 172.4 pg/g in the pancreas). The recovery of SST by MP-SST downregulated the expressions of chronic pancreatitis-related factors and alleviated the histologic severity of the pancreas to the greatest extent compared to other treatment groups. This augmentation of SST therapeutic effects demonstrated the superiority of integrating the synthetic polymer with biological membranes in the design of nanoplatforms for advanced and smart peptide delivery. Other peptides like SST can also be delivered via the membrane−polymer hybrid nanosystem for the treatment of diseases, broadening and promoting the potential clinical applications of peptides as therapeutics.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) presents special biological behavior and clinicopathological characteristics and leads to a worse prognosis than other types of breast cancer. The development of an effective therapeutic method is significant to improve the survival rate of TNBC cancer patients. In this work, an engineered red blood cell membrane (RBCm)-coating salidroside/indocyanine green nanovesicle (ARISP) is successfully prepared for hypoxic targeting phototherapy of TNBC. Salidroside in ARISP effectively ameliorates hypoxia-induced tumorigenesis by downregulating the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α), which increases the killing effect of reactive oxygen species on tumor cells during photodynamic therapy (PDT) using the photosensitizer indocyanine green. Besides, ARISP has an anti-LDLR modified RBCm-coating that extends its circulation time in the blood and escapes from immune surveillance and enhances hypoxia-targeted cellular uptake via the overexpressed LDLR receptor in hypoxic tumor sites. Moreover, guided by near-infrared fluorescence imaging and photoacoustic imaging, ARISP can eliminate tumors via high-efficiency phototherapy and inhibit lung and liver metastasis in TNBC models. Cytotoxicity assay of ARISP indicates the excellent biocompatibility with normal cells and tissues. This study provides fulfilling insights into the anticancer mechanism of reducing HIF-1α for enhanced PDT and has a promising therapeutic potential for TNBC treatment.

[PMID: 35712639 PMCID: PMC9196673 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s366187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
In recent years, chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has received extensive attention as a novel means of cancer treatment. The CDT agents can exert Fenton and Fenton-like reactions in the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME), converting hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH). However, the pH of TME, as an essential factor in the Fenton reaction, does not catalyze the reaction effectively, hindering its efficiency, which poses a significant challenge for the future clinical application of CDT. Therefore, this paper reviews various strategies to enhance the antitumor properties of nanomaterials by modulating tumor acidity. Ultimately, the performance of CDT can be further improved by inducing strong oxidative stress to produce sufficient ·OH. In this paper, the various acidification pathways and proton pumps with potential acidification functions are mainly discussed, such as catalytic enzymes, exogenous acids, CAIX, MCT, NHE, NBCn1, etc. The problems, opportunities, and challenges of CDT in the cancer field are also discussed, thereby providing new insights for the design of nanomaterials and laying the foundation for their future clinical applications.

Value of Histogram of Gray-Scale Ultrasound Image in Differential Diagnosis of Small Triple Negative Breast Invasive Ductal Carcinoma and Fibroadenoma. Cancer Manag Res 2022; 14:1515-1524. [PMID: 35478712 PMCID: PMC9038159 DOI: 10.2147/cmar.s359986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2022] [Accepted: 04/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate the value of gray-scale ultrasound (US) image histogram in the differential diagnosis between small (≤2.00 cm), oval, or round triple negative breast invasive ductal carcinoma (TN-IDC) and fibroadenoma (FA). Methods Fifty-five cases of triple negative breast invasive ductal carcinoma (TN-IDC group) and 57 cases of breast fibroadenoma (FA group) confirmed by pathology in Hubei cancer hospital from September 2017 to September 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. The gray-scale US images were analyzed by histogram analysis method, from which some parameters (including mean, variance, skewness, kurtosis and 1st, 10th, 50th, 90th and 99th percentile) can be obtained. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to evaluate the inter observer reliability of histogram parameters. Histogram parameters between the TN-IDC and FA groups were compared using independent Student’s t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test, respectively. In addition, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used for the significant parameters to calculate the differential diagnosis efficiency. Results All the histogram parameters showed excellent inter-reader consistency, with the ICC values ranged from 0.883 to 0.999. The mean value, 1st, 10th, 50th, 90th and 99th percentiles of TN-IDC group were significantly lower than those of FA group (P < 0.05). The area under ROC curve (AUC) values of mean and n percentiles were from 0.807 to 0.848. However, there were no significant differences in variance, skewness and kurtosis between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Histogram analysis of gray-scale US images can well distinguish small, oval, or round TN-IDC from FA.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most daunting diseases, low toxicity and efficient approaches are in urgent demand. Herein, we developed degradable mesoporous manganese carbonate nanocubes (MnCO3 NCs), incorporated with survivin shRNA-expressing plasmid DNA (iSur-pDNA) and riboflavin (Rf), namely MRp NCs, for synergistic TNBC therapy. The MnCO3, itself, could generate O2 and CO2 under H2O2 and thus relieve the hypoxia and acidic tumor microenvironment (TME). Furthermore, the MnCO3 NCs exhibited high Rf loading capacity and iSur-pDNA delivery ability after polyethyleneimine modification. Specifically, MRp NCs decompose in TME, meanwhile they deprived the endogenous expression of survivin gene and significantly amplified the generation of reactive oxygen species after exposure to LED light, resulting in serious tumor destruction. The multifunctional MRp NCs with LED light-driven characters are able to provide a high efficiency, low toxicity and promising strategy for TNBC therapy. ![]()
