Abstract
Biocompatible photocatalytic water-splitting systems are promising for tissue self-oxygenation. Herein, a structure-function dual biomimetic fingerprint-like silver phosphate/polydopamine/graphitic carbon nitride (Ag3PO4/PDA/g-C3N4) heterojunction nanocomposite is proposed for enhanced solar-driven oxygen (O2) evolution in vivo in situ. Briefly, a porous nitrogen-defected g-C3N4 nanovoile (CN) is synthesized as the base. Dopamine molecules are controllably inserted into the CN interlayer, forming PDA spacers (4.28 nm) through self-polymerization-induced supramolecular-assembly. Ag3PO4 nanoparticles are then in situ deposited to create Ag3PO4/PDA/CN. The fingerprint-like structure of PDA/CN enlarges the layer spacing, thereby accelerating mass transfer and increasing reaction sites. The PDA spacer roles as excellent light harvester, electronic-ionic conductor, and redox pair through conformational changes, resulting in tailored electronic band structure, optimized carrier behavior, and reduced electrochemical impedance. In physiological conditions, Ag3PO4/PDA/CN exhibits O2 evolution rate of 45.35 μmol⋅g-1⋅h-1, 9-fold of bulk g-C3N4. The biocompatibility and in vivo oxygen supply effectiveness for biomedical applications have been verified in animal models.

Abstract
The detection of pH and glutathione (GSH) is positively significant for the cell microenvironment imaging. Here, to assess the pH value and the concentration of GSH efficiently and visually, a cellulose-based multi-bands ratiometric fluorescence probe was designed by assembling MnO2-modified cellulose gold nanoclusters, fluorescein isothiocyanate-grafted cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and protoporphyrin IX-modified CNCs. The probe exhibits GSH-responsive, pH-sensitive and GSH/pH-independent fluorescent properties at 440 nm, 520 nm, and 633 nm, respectively. Furthermore, the probe identifies GSH within 4 s by degrading MnO2 into Mn2+ in response to GSH. Ingeniously, the green fluorescence of the probe at 520 nm was decreased with pH, and the red fluorescence at 633 nm remained stable. Therefore, the probe displayed distinguishing fluorescence colors from pink to blue and from green to blue for the synchronous detection of pH and GSH concentration within 4 s. The design strategy provides insights to construct multi-bands fluorescence probes for the rapid detection of multiple target analytes.

Abstract
In recent years, tumor catalytic therapy based on nanozymes has attracted widespread attention. However, its application is limited by the tumor hypoxic microenvironment (TME). In this study, we developed oxygen-supplying magnetic bead nanozymes that integrate hemoglobin and encapsulate the photosensitizer curcumin, demonstrating reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced synergistic breast cancer therapy. Fe3O4 magnetic bead-mediated catalytic dynamic therapy (CDT) generates hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) through the Fenton reaction in the tumor microenvironment. The Hb-encapsulated Fe3O4 magnetic beads can be co-loaded with the photosensitizer/chemotherapeutic agent curcumin (cur), resulting in Fe3O4-Hb@cur. Under hypoxic conditions, oxygen molecules are released from Fe3O4-Hb@cur to overcome the TME hypoxia, resulting in comprehensive effects favoring anti-tumor responses. Upon near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, Fe3O4-Hb@cur activates the surrounding molecular oxygen to generate a certain amount of singlet oxygen (1O2), which is utilized for photodynamic therapy (PDT) in cancer treatment. Meanwhile, we validated that the O2 carried by Hb significantly enhances the intracellular ROS level, intensifying the catalytic therapy mediated by Fe3O4 magnetic beads and inflicting lethal damage to cancer cells, effectively inhibiting tumor growth. Therefore, significant in vivo synergistic therapeutic effects can be achieved through catalytic-photodynamic combination therapy.

Redox Homeostasis Disruptors Based on Metal-Phenolic Network Nanoparticles for Chemo/Chemodynamic Synergistic Tumor Therapy through Activating Apoptosis and Cuproptosis. Adv Healthc Mater 2023; 12:e2301346.

Abstract
The combination of chemo/chemodynamic therapy is a promising strategy for improving antitumor efficacy. Herein, metal-phenolic network nanoparticles (NPs) self-assembled from copper ions and gallic acid (Cu-GA) are developed to evoke apoptosis and cuproptosis for synergistic chemo/chemodynamic therapy. The Cu-GA NPs are biodegraded in response to the highly expressed glutathione (GSH) in tumor cells, resulting in the simultaneous release of Cu+ and GA. The intracellular GSH content is dramatically reduced by the released GA, rendering the tumor cells incapable of scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) and more susceptible to cuproptosis. Meanwhile, ROS levels within the tumor cells are significantly increased by the Fenton-like reaction of released Cu+ , which disrupts redox homeostasis and achieves apoptosis-related chemodynamic therapy. Moreover, massive accumulation of Cu+ in the tumor cells further induces aggregation of lipoylated dihydrolipoamide S-acetyltransferase and downregulation of iron-sulfur cluster protein, activating cuproptosis to enhance the antitumor efficacy of Cu-GA NPs. The experiments in vivo further demonstrate that Cu-GA NPs exhibited the excellent biosafety and superior antitumor capacity, which can efficiently inhibit the growth of tumors due to the activation by the tumor specific GSH and hydrogen peroxide. These Cu-based metal-phenolic network NPs provide a potential strategy to build up efficient and safe cancer therapy.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT), an emerging treatment for solid tumors, has the advantages of deep tissue penetration, non-invasiveness, low side effects, and negligible drug resistance. However, the hypoxic environment of deep solid tumors can discount the efficacy of oxygenated dependent SDT. Here, we synthesized a polythiophene-based sonosensitizer (PT2) and a two-dimensional pleated niobium carbide (Nb2C) Mxene. PT2 was loaded onto the surface of poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP)-coated Nb2C MXene through electrostatic interaction to obtain Nb2C-PVP-PT2 nanosheets (NSs) with a high loading efficiency of 153.7%. Nb2C MXene exhibited catalase-like activity, which could catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce O2, in turn alleviating tumor hypoxia and enhancing the efficacy of SDT. The depletion of H2O2 further results in abnormal cellular H2O2 levels and reduced tumor cell activity. Moreover, the decomposed NSs led to the release of the sonosensitizer PT2 that can efficiently generate both singlet oxygen and superoxide anions under ultrasound irradiation. These events led to the inhibition of DNA replication of tumor cells, causing tumor cell death, allowing for enhanced SDT efficacy.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM), a highly aggressive form of brain cancer, is considered one of the deadliest cancers, and even with the most advanced medical treatments, most affected patients have a poor prognosis. However, recent advances in nanotechnology offer promising avenues for the development of versatile therapeutic and diagnostic nanoplatforms that can deliver drugs to brain tumor sites through the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Despite these breakthroughs, the use of nanoplatforms in GBM therapy has been a subject of great controversy due to concerns over the biosafety of these nanoplatforms. In recent years, biomimetic nanoplatforms have gained unprecedented attention in the biomedical field. With advantages such as extended circulation times, and improved immune evasion and active targeting compared to conventional nanosystems, bionanoparticles have shown great potential for use in biomedical applications. In this prospective article, we endeavor to comprehensively review the application of bionanomaterials in the treatment of glioma, focusing on the rational design of multifunctional nanoplatforms to facilitate BBB infiltration, promote efficient accumulation in the tumor, enable precise tumor imaging, and achieve remarkable tumor suppression. Furthermore, we discuss the challenges and future trends in this field. Through careful design and optimization of nanoplatforms, researchers are paving the way toward safer and more effective therapies for GBM patients. The development of biomimetic nanoplatform applications for glioma therapy is a promising avenue for precision medicine, which could ultimately improve patient outcomes and quality of life.

Abstract
Lung cancer remains a major health problem despite the considerable research into prevention and treatment methods. Through a deeper understanding of tumors, patient-specific ex vivo spheroid models with high specificity can be used to accurately investigate the cause, metastasis, and treatment strategies for lung cancer. Biofabricate lung tumors are presented, consisting of patient-derived tumor spheroids, endothelial cells, and lung decellularized extracellular matrix, which maintain a radial oxygen gradient, as well as biophysicochemical behaviors of the native tumors for precision medicine. It is also demonstrated that the developed lung-cancer spheroid model reproduces patient responses to chemotherapeutics and targeted therapy in a co-clinical trial, with 85% accuracy, 86.7% sensitivity, and 80% specificity. RNA sequencing analysis validates that the gene expression in the spheroids replicates that in the patient's primary tumor. This model can be used as an ex vivo predictive model for personalized cancer therapy and to improve the quality of clinical care.
