Abstract
In this study, we present a novel system consisting of nanomotors and a hydrogel. Calcium carbonate nanomotors are prepared using layer-by-layer self-assembly technology with calcium carbonate nanoparticles as the core and catalase (CAT) and polydopamine (PDA) as the shell. Calcium carbonate nanomotors were loaded into a Schiff base hydrogel to synthesize the CaCO3@NM-hydrogel system. A nanomotor is a device that works on the nanoscale to convert some form of energy to mechanical energy. The motion speed of the system in 5.0 mM H2O2 aqueous solution under near-infrared light (NIR) irradiation with a power density of 1.8 W/cm2 is 13.6 μm/s. The addition of CaCO3@NM further promotes gelation and improves the mechanical properties. The energy storage modulus increases to 4.0 × 103 Pa, which is 50 times higher. Schiff base hydrogels form dynamic reversible chemical bonds due to inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bonding. They also have good self-healing properties, as observed by measuring the energy storage modulus versus the loss modulus at 1 versus 10 kHz. The results show that the system significantly inhibited the growth of both Gram-positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, and Gram-negative bacteria, Escherichia coli, after 48 h, with an inhibition rate of nearly 95%. These findings provide a basis for further research and potential applications of the system in wound dressings.

Abstract
Natural and artificial enzyme oxygen-generating systems for photodynamic therapy (PDT) are developed for tumor treatment, yet they have fallen short of the desired efficacy. Moreover, both the enzymes and photosensitizers usually need carriers for efficient delivery to tumor sites. Here, a self-cascade-enhanced multimodal tumor therapy is developed by ingeniously integrating self-cascade-enhanced PDT with Zn2+-overloading therapy. Manganese-porphyrin (TCPP-Mn) is chosen both as the photosensitizer and catalase (CAT) mimic, which can be encapsulated within glucose oxidase (GOx). Acid-responsive zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is applied as the carrier for TCPP-Mn@GOx (T@G), attaining TCPP-Mn@GOx@ZIF-8 (T@G@Z). T@G@Z demonstrates robust anti-tumor ability as follows: upon the structural degradation of ZIF-8, GOx can mediate the oxidation of glucose and generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2); TCPP-Mn can catalyze H2O2 into O2 for self-cascade-enhanced PDT; meanwhile, the released Zn2+ can enhance oxidative stress and induce mitochondrial dysfunction by destroying mitochondrial membrane potential; furthermore, immunotherapy can be activated to resist primary tumor and tumor metastasis. The self-cascade-enhanced T@G@Z exhibited its potential application for further tumor management.

Abstract
Intravesical instillation is the common therapeutic strategy for bladder cancer. Besides chemo drugs, nanoparticles are used as intravesical instillation reagents, offering appealing therapeutic approaches for bladder cancer treatment. Metal oxide nanoparticle based chemodynamic therapy (CDT) converts tumor intracellular hydrogen peroxide to ROS with cancer cell-specific toxicity, which makes it a promising approach for the intravesical instillation of bladder cancer. However, the limited penetration of nanoparticle based therapeutic agents into the mucosa layer of the bladder wall poses a great challenge for the clinical application of CDT in intravesical instillation. Herein, we developed a 1064 nm NIR-II light driven hydrogel nanomotor for the CDT for bladder cancer via intravesical instillation. The hydrogel nanomotor was synthesized via microfluidics, wrapped with a lipid bilayer, and encapsulates CuO2 nanoparticles as a CDT reagent and core-shell structured Fe3O4@Cu9S8 nanoparticles as a fuel reagent with asymmetric distribution in the nanomotor (LipGel-NM). An NIR-II light irradiation of 1064 nm drives the active motion of LipGel-NMs, thus facilitating their distribution in the bladder and deep penetration into the mucosa layer of the bladder wall. After FA-mediated endocytosis in bladder cancer cells, CuO2 is released from LipGel-NMs due to the acidic intracellular environment for CDT. The NIR-II light powered active motion of LipGel-NMs effectively enhances CDT, providing a promising strategy for bladder cancer therapy.

Abstract
Though platinum (Pt)-based complexes have been recently exploited as immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducers for activating immunotherapy, the effective activation of sufficient immune responses with minimal side effects in deep-seated tumors remains a formidable challenge. Herein, we propose the first example of a near-infrared (NIR) light-activated and lysosomal targeted Pt(II) metallacycle (1) as a supramolecular ICD inducer. 1 synergistically potentiates immunomodulatory response in deep-seated tumors via multiple-regulated approaches, involving NIR light excitation, boosted reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, good selectivity between normal and tumor cells, and enhanced tumor penetration/retention capabilities. Specifically, 1 has excellent depth-activated ROS production (~7 mm), accompanied by strong anti-diffusion and anti-ROS quenching ability. In vitro experiments demonstrate that 1 exhibits significant cellular uptake and ROS generation in tumor cells as well as respective multicellular tumor spheroids. Based on these advantages, 1 induces a more efficient ICD in an ultralow dose (i.e., 5 μM) compared with the clinical ICD inducer-oxaliplatin (300 μM). In vivo, vaccination experiments further demonstrate that 1 serves as a potent ICD inducer through eliciting CD8+/CD4+ T cell response and Foxp3+ T cell depletion with negligible adverse effects. This study pioneers a promising avenue for safe and effective metal-based ICD agents in immunotherapy.

Abstract
Artificial nanorobots have emerged as promising tools for a wide range of biomedical applications, including biosensing, detoxification, and drug delivery. Their unique ability to navigate confined spaces with precise control extends their operational scope to the cellular or subcellular level. By combining tailored surface functionality and propulsion mechanisms, nanorobots demonstrate rapid penetration of cell membranes and efficient internalization, enhancing intracellular delivery capabilities. Moreover, their robust motion within cells enables targeted interactions with intracellular components, such as proteins, molecules, and organelles, leading to superior performance in intracellular biosensing and organelle-targeted cargo delivery. Consequently, nanorobots hold significant potential as miniaturized surgeons capable of directly modulating cellular dynamics and combating metastasis, thereby maximizing therapeutic outcomes for precision therapy. In this review, we provide an overview of the propulsion modes of nanorobots and discuss essential factors to harness propulsive energy from the local environment or external power sources, including structure, material, and engine selection. We then discuss key advancements in nanorobot technology for various intracellular applications. Finally, we address important considerations for future nanorobot design to facilitate their translation into clinical practice and unlock their full potential in biomedical research and healthcare.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an effective cancer treatment method. Due to its easy focusing and tunability of the irradiation light, direct and accurate local treatment can be performed in a noninvasive manner by PTT. This treatment strategy requires the use of photothermal agents to convert light energy into heat energy, thereby achieving local heating and triggering biochemical processes to kill tumor cells. As a key factor in PTT, the photothermal conversion ability of photothermal agents directly determines the efficacy of PTT. In addition, photothermal agents generally have photothermal imaging (PTI) and photoacoustic imaging (PAI) functions, which can not only guide the optimization of irradiation conditions but also achieve the integration of disease diagnosis. If the photothermal agents have function of fluorescence imaging (FLI) or fluorescence enhancement, they can not only further improve the accuracy in disease diagnosis but also accurately determine the tumor location through multimodal imaging for corresponding treatment. In this paper, we summarize recent advances in photothermal agents with FLI or fluorescence enhancement functions for PTT and tumor diagnosis. According to the different recognition sites, the application of specific targeting photothermal agents is introduced. Finally, limitations and challenges of photothermal agents with fluorescence imaging/enhancement in the field of PTT and tumor diagnosis are prospected.

Abstract
Nanotechnology brings hope for targeted drug delivery. However, most current drug delivery systems use passive delivery strategies with limited therapeutic efficiency. Over the past two decades, research on micro/nanomotors (MNMs) has flourished in the biomedical field. Compared with other driven methods, light-driven MNMs have the advantages of being reversible, simple to control, clean, and efficient. Under light irradiation, the MNMs can overcome several barriers in the body and show great potential in the treatment of various diseases, such as tumors, and gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Herein, the classification and mechanism of light-driven MNMs are introduced briefly. Subsequently, the applications of light-driven MNMs in overcoming physiological and pathological barriers in the past five years are highlighted. Finally, the future prospects and challenges of light-driven MNMs are discussed as well. This review will provide inspiration and direction for light-driven MNMs to overcome biological barriers in vivo and promote the clinical application of light-driven MNMs in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a common inflammatory bowel disease with a high incidence rate and serious consequences. Attempts in this area are focusing on developing efficient delivery systems for relieving IBD. Herein, we present a kind of near-infrared-II (NIR-II)-activated pollen-derived micromotor (PDMM) as an efficient delivery system for treating IBD. These PDMMs are pollen grains with half of them covered by a gold (Au) layer, which can result in an asymmetric thermal gradient around the PDMMs under NIR-II irradiation, thereby forming a thermophoretic force to drive PDMMs to move spontaneously. Besides, the inherent spiny and hollow architectures of pollen grains endowed the PDMMs with outstanding capacity of adherence and drug delivery, respectively. Based on these features, we have demonstrated that the PDMMs could move actively in vivo with the irradiation of NIR-II light and adhere to the surrounding tissues for drug delivery. Thus, the PDMMs loaded with dexamethasone show desirable curative effects on treating IBD. These results indicated that the proposed PDMM-based delivery system has great potential in clinic gastrointestinal administration.

Abstract
Multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacterial infections are gradually increasing in the global scope, causing a serious burden to patients and society. The formation of bacterial biofilms, which is one of the key reasons for antibiotic resistance, blocks antibiotic penetration by forming a physical barrier. Nano/micro motors (MNMs) are micro-/nanoscale devices capable of performing complex tasks in the bacterial microenvironment by transforming various energy sources (including chemical fuels or external physical fields) into mechanical motion or actuation. This autonomous movement provides significant advantages in breaking through biological barriers and accelerating drug diffusion. In recent years, MNMs with high penetrating power have been used as carriers of antibiotics to overcome bacterial biofilms, enabling efficient drug delivery and improving the therapeutic effectiveness of MDR bacterial infections. Additionally, non-antibiotic antibacterial strategies based on nanomaterials, such as photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy, are continuously being developed due to their non-invasive nature, high effectiveness, and non-induction of resistance. Therefore, multifunctional MNMs have broad prospects in the treatment of MDR bacterial infections. This review discusses the performance of MNMs in the breakthrough and elimination of bacterial biofilms, as well as their application in the field of anti-infection. Finally, the challenges and future development directions of antibacterial MNMs are introduced.

Abstract
The application of nanomaterials in healthcare has emerged as a promising strategy due to their unique structural diversity, surface properties, and compositional diversity. In particular, nanomaterials have found a significant role in improving drug delivery and inhibiting the growth and metastasis of tumor cells. Moreover, recent studies have highlighted their potential in modulating the tumor microenvironment (TME) and enhancing the activity of immune cells to improve tumor therapy efficacy. Various types of nanomaterials are currently utilized as drug carriers, immunosuppressants, immune activators, immunoassay reagents, and more for tumor immunotherapy. Necessarily, nanomaterials used for tumor immunotherapy can be grouped into two categories: organic and inorganic nanomaterials. Though both have shown the ability to achieve the purpose of tumor immunotherapy, their composition and structural properties result in differences in their mechanisms and modes of action. Organic nanomaterials can be further divided into organic polymers, cell membranes, nanoemulsion-modified, and hydrogel forms. At the same time, inorganic nanomaterials can be broadly classified as nonmetallic and metallic nanomaterials. The current work aims to explore the mechanisms of action of these different types of nanomaterials and their prospects for promoting tumor immunotherapy.
