Abstract
Nanoparticle (NP)-based drug delivery systems have the potential to significantly enhance the pharmacological and therapeutic properties of drugs. These systems enhance the bioavailability and biocompatibility of pharmaceutical agents via enabling targeted delivery to specific tissues or organs. However, the efficacy and safety of these systems are largely dependent on the cellular uptake and intracellular transport of NPs. Thus, it is crucial to monitor the intracellular behavior of NPs within a single cell. Yet, it is challenging due to the complexity and size of the cell. Recently, the development of the Raman instrumentation offers a versatile tool to allow noninvasive cellular measurements. The primary objective of this review is to highlight the most recent advancements in Raman techniques (spontaneous Raman scattering, bioorthogonal Raman scattering, coherence Raman scattering, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering) when it comes to assessing the internalization of NP-based drug delivery systems and their subsequent movement within cells.

Abstract
The liver is an important organ in the human body and performs many functions, such as digestion, detoxification, metabolism, immune responses, and vitamin and mineral storage. Therefore, disorders of liver functions triggered by various hepatic diseases, including hepatitis B virus infection, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, hepatic fibrosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and transplant rejection, significantly threaten human health worldwide. Polymer-based nanomedicines, which can be easily engineered with ideal physicochemical characteristics and functions, have considerable merits, including contributions to improved therapeutic outcomes and reduced adverse effects of drugs, in the treatment of hepatic diseases compared to traditional therapeutic agents. This review describes liver anatomy and function, and liver targeting strategies, hepatic disease treatment applications and intrahepatic fates of polymeric nanomedicines. The challenges and outlooks of hepatic disease treatment with polymeric nanomedicines are also discussed.

Abstract
AIMS Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are the source of tumors and play a key role in the resistance of cancer to therapies. To improve the current therapies against CSCs, in this work we developed a novel system of electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers containing hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-OH) and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). MATERIALS AND METHODS The nanofiber membranes were forged by electrospinning, and the physical and chemical properties of the nanofiber membranes were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, XRD and Raman etc. The photothermal properties of nanofiber membranes and their effects on CSCs differentiation and cytotoxicity were investigated. Finally, the anti-tumor effect of nanofiber membranes in vivo was evaluated. KEY FINDINGS The nanofibers formed under optimal conditions were smooth without beads. The nanofibrous membranes with MWCNTs-OH could increase temperature of the medium under near-infrared (NIR) illumination to suppress the viability of glioma stem cells (GSCs). Meanwhile, the added ATRA could further induce the differentiation of GSCs to destroy their stemness and reduce their resistance to heat treatment. Compared with no NIR irradiation, after 2min NIR irradiation, the membranes reduced the in-vitro viability of GSCs by 13.41%, 14.83%, and 26.71% after 1, 2, and 3 days, respectively. After 3 min daily illumination for 3 days, the viability of GSCs was only 22.75%, and similar results were observed in vivo. SIGNIFICANCE These results showed efficiently cytotoxicity to CSCs by combining heat therapy and differentiation therapy. The nanofiber membranes if inserted at the site after surgical tumor removal, may hinder tumor recurrence.

Abstract
In this chapter, we will introduce and review molecular-sensitive imaging techniques, which close the gap between ex vivo and in vivo analysis. In detail, we will introduce spontaneous Raman spectral imaging, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS), stimulated Raman scattering (SRS), second-harmonic generation (SHG) and third-harmonic generation (THG), two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF), and fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM). After reviewing these imaging techniques, we shortly introduce chemometric methods and machine learning techniques, which are needed to use these imaging techniques in diagnostic applications.

Abstract
Nanoparticle-based cell differentiation therapy has attracted increasing research interest as it is a promising substitute for conventional cancer treatment methods. Here, the topological insulator bismuth selenide nanoparticle (Bi2Se3 NP) was core-shelled with silver (Ag@Bi2Se3) to represent remarkable biocompatibility and plasmonic features (ca. 2.3 times higher than those of Ag nanoparticle). Moreover, a newly developed RNA three-way junction (3WJ) structure was designed for the quad-functionalization of any type of nanoparticle and surface. One leg of the 3WJ was attached to the Ag@Bi2Se3, and the other leg harbored a cell-penetrating RNA and a florescence tag. The third leg was designed to inhibit micro-RNA-17 (miR-17) and to further release retinoic acid (RA). A new drug delivery mechanism was developed for the slow release of RA inside the cytosol based on the prerequisite inhibition of miR-17 using a strand displacement strategy. In this paper, we report a simple methodology for resolving the hydrophobicity challenges of RA by its conjugation with a RNA strand (RA/R) through a stimulus-responsive cross-linker. The developed nanobiohybrid material could fully differentiate SH-SY5Y cancer cells into neurons and stop their growth in 6 days without requiring sequential treatments which has not been reported yet. Using a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy technique, the RA delivery and the cell differentiation process were monitored nondestructively in real time. The fabricated nanobiohybrid material could open the new horizons in the fabrication of different diagnostic/therapeutic agents.
