Abstract
Chemotherapy is an important cancer treatment modality, but the clinical utility of chemotherapeutics is limited by their toxic side effects, inadequate distribution and insufficient intracellular concentrations. Nanodrug delivery systems (NDDSs) have shown significant advantages in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Variable NDDSs that respond to endogenous and exogenous triggers have attracted much research interest. Here, we summarized nanomaterials commonly used for tumor therapy, such as peptides, liposomes, and carbon nanotubes, as well as the responses of NDDSs to pH, enzymes, magnetic fields, light, and multiple stimuli. Specifically, well-designed NDDSs can change in size or morphology or rupture when induced by one or more stimuli. The varying responses of NDDSs to stimulation contribute to the molecular design and development of novel NDDSs, providing new ideas for improving drug penetration and accumulation, inhibiting tumor resistance and metastasis, and enhancing immunotherapy.

Abstract
Increasing the security of anticounterfeiting materials has been the most important challenge in recent years, and the development of dual-color photoluminescent inks with multi-level security, static/dynamic emission, and dynamic color change is an important solution to overcome this problem. In this study, the multi-functionalized copolymer nanoparticles containing different functional groups (with a concentration of 20 wt %), including ester, carboxylic acid, hydroxyl, epoxide, amide, and amine groups were synthesized successfully by the emulsion polymerization method. The results showed that the particle size and morphology of nanoparticles are affected by the polarity of functional groups. The prepared multi-functionalized copolymer nanoparticles were modified physically with spiropyran (photochromic and red fluorescence emission) and coumarin (cyan emission) derivatives to develop dual-color photoluminescent polymer nanoparticles with application in static-dynamic photoluminescent anticounterfeiting inks, which have multi-level security. The investigation of optical properties indicates that the kinetics of photochromism and photoluminescence properties of samples containing spiropyran is dependent on the local polarity on the surface of polymer nanoparticles. Hence, an increase in the polarity (functionalization with amide, carboxylic acid, and hydroxyl groups) has resulted in fast photochromism, high-intensity photoluminescence emission and increased the efficiency of the photoswitchable color change of emission from cyan to pink. Dual-color photoluminescent anticounterfeiting inks were prepared by mixing polymer nanoparticles containing spiropyran with polymer nanoparticles containing coumarin, in different ratios (1:1, 1:3, 1:5, 1:8, and 1:10). Obtained results showed that prepared samples have cyan emission under UV light of 254 nm (static mode), and a dynamic photoswitching of fluorescence emission from cyan to pink (as a function of irradiation time) was also observed under UV-light irradiation of 365 nm, which is well known as a dynamic mode of emission. The responsivity and intensity of dynamic photoluminescence emission are dependent on the local polarity of the surface functional groups, in which the samples based on amide functionalized copolymer nanoparticles displayed high-intensity emission in the static mode and high-intensity photoswitchable dual-color emission in the dynamic mode, in the case of all ratios of colloid solution mixtures. Printing security tags on cellulose paper by dual-color photoluminescent inks indicates advantages such as maximum printability, resolution, brightness, and static-dynamic photoluminescence emission with high intensity for inks based on amide functionalized nanoparticles. The static-dynamic dual-color photoluminescent anticounterfeiting ink with unique properties and multi-level security was reported for the first time by the collaboration of spiropyran and coumarin. This study can open a new approach and window to the future of advanced and high-security anticounterfeiting technologies.

Abstract
The design of photo-responsive supramolecular hydrogels based on coumarin dimerization and de-dimerization is described. The photo-responsive coumarin unit is chemically incorporated into an oligo(ethylene glycol) (OEG) bis-urea amphiphile that is capable of co-assembling with non-functionalized OEG amphiphile, to form supramolecular fibers. UV light with two different wavelengths (365 nm and 254 nm) is employed to induce a photo-reversible dimerization and de-dimerization process of coumarin units, respectively. The co-assembled solutions could be photo-crosslinked to induce a sol-to-gel transition through dimerization of coumarin with 365 nm UV light, and de-dimerization occurs with 254 nm UV light, to provide a weaker gel. In this system, the mechanical strength of supramolecular hydrogels can be tuned using the irradiation time, providing precise control of gelation in a supramolecular hydrogelator.

Abstract
Chronic wound caused by diabetes is an important cause of disability and seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance to develop a wound dressing that can accelerate the healing of diabetic wounds. Nanoparticles have great advantages in promoting diabetic wound healing due to their antibacterial properties, low cytotoxicity, good biocompatibility and drug delivery ability. Adding nanoparticles to the dressing matrix and using nanoparticles to deliver drugs and cytokines to promote wound healing has proven to be effective. This review will focus on the effects of diabetes on wound healing, introduce the properties, preparation methods and action mechanism of nanoparticles in wound healing, and describe the effects and application status of various nanoparticle-loaded dressings in diabetes-related chronic wound healing.

Abstract
Purpose
The effective, efficient and optimal design of micromixer is the need in the field of biochemical and biomedical diagnostic systems.
Design/methodology/approach
In this paper, multi-objective optimization of split and recombine micromixer (SRM) with different geometrical configurations is carried out. The finite element method-based three-dimensional models are prepared and analyzed using COMSOL Multiphysics 5.0 Software. Taguchi’s design of experiment (DoE), main effect plot analysis, ANOVA and grey relational analysis (GRA) method are used to find out optimum condition. The five geometrical parameters with three levels, namely, angle between inlets, pillar size, pillar shape, aspect ratio and constriction height of SRM are considered as design variables. The mixing index (MXI) and pressure drop (∆P) are considered objective functions.
Findings
The MXI is significantly influenced by pillar shape and aspect ratio, whereas the pressure drop (∆P) by constriction height. Maximum MXI (0.97) with minimum pressure drop (64,587 Pa) is the optimal conditions and obtained at 180 deg angle between inlets, 50 µm of pillar size, 1.5 of aspect ratio, 100 µm of constriction height and ellipse shape pillar cross-section, respectively.
Research limitations/implications
This optimized SRM can be combined with lab-on-a-chip for biochemical and biomedical analysis.
Originality/value
This work is useful to obtain optimal geometry of SRM for getting efficient performance of micromixer.

Abstract
Cancer is a group of disorders characterized by uncontrolled cell growth that affects around 11 million people each year globally. Nanocarrier-based systems are extensively used in cancer imaging, diagnostics as well as therapeutics; owing to their promising features and potential to augment therapeutic efficacy. The focal point of research remains to develop new-fangled smart nanocarriers that can selectively respond to cancer-specific conditions and deliver medications to target cells efficiently. Nanocarriers deliver loaded therapeutic cargos to the tumour site either in a passive or active mode, with the least drug elimination from the drug delivery systems. This review chiefly focuses on current advances allied to smart nanocarriers such as dendrimers, liposomes, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, quantum dots, micelles, superparamagnetic iron-oxide nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes, to list a few. Exhaustive discussion on crucial topics like drug targeting, surface decorated smart-nanocarriers and stimuli-responsive cancer nanotherapeutics responding to temperature, enzyme, pH and redox stimuli have been covered.

Abstract
A series of novel humidity-responsive and photosensitive polymer films (PCA-PAA-PEG) are prepared. These films can be patterning cross-linked by the photodimerization of coumarin pendant groups. The humidity-induced deformation can be well controlled by the pattern because of the different modulus and hydrophilicity between cross-linked and un-cross-linked segments. In addition, the pattern can be erased and the deformation direction can be changed programmatically by the de-cross-linking-re-cross-linking approach due to the reversible photodimerization of coumarin groups. The cross-linking degree also affects the humidity responsiveness of the film. The deformation of the gradient patterning cross-linked film can be more accurately controlled. Moreover, the length and width ratio (L/Ws/Wh) of the un-cross-linked segment to the cross-linked segment affects the deformation of the films as well. When L/Ws/Wh is 5/2/1 or 5/3/1, the deformation is controllable, and when L/Ws/Wh is 5/1/1 or 5/4/1, the deformation is random at the initial stage, but the whole film will bend along the short axis in the end.

Abstract
Natural and synthetic coumarin derivatives have gained increased attention in the design of functional polymers and polymer networks due to their unique optical, biological, and photochemical properties. This review provides a comprehensive overview over recent developments in macromolecular architecture and mainly covers examples from the literature published from 2004 to 2020. Along with a discussion on coumarin and its photochemical properties, we focus on polymers containing coumarin as a nonreactive moiety as well as polymer systems exploiting the dimerization and/or reversible nature of the [2πs + 2πs] cycloaddition reaction. Coumarin moieties undergo a reversible [2πs + 2πs] cycloaddition reaction upon irradiation with specific wavelengths in the UV region, which is applied to impart intrinsic healability, shape-memory, and reversible properties into polymers. In addition, coumarin chromophores are able to dimerize under the exposure to direct sunlight, which is a promising route for the synthesis and cross-linking of polymer systems under "green" and environment-friendly conditions. Along with the chemistry and design of coumarin functional polymers, we highlight various future application fields of coumarin containing polymers involving tissue engineering, drug delivery systems, soft robotics, or 4D printing applications.

Abstract
The evolving dynamics of drug resistance due to tumor heterogeneity often creates impediments to traditional therapies making it a challenging issue for cancer cure. Breast cancer often faces challenges of current therapeutic interventions owing to its multiple complexities and high drug resistivity, for example against drugs like trastuzumab and tamoxifen. Drug resistance in the majority of breast cancer is often aided by the overtly expressed P-glycoprotein (P-gp) that guides in the rapid drug efflux of chemotherapy drugs. Despite continuous endeavors and ground-breaking achievements in the pursuit of finding better cancer therapeutic avenues, drug resistance is still a menace to hold back. Among newer therapeutic approaches, the application of phytonutrients such as alkaloids to suppress P-gp activity in drug-resistant cancers has found an exciting niche in the arena of alternative cancer therapies. In this work, we would like to present a black pepper alkaloid derivative known as BioPerine-loaded chitosan (CS)-polyethylene glycol (PEG) coated polylactic acid (PLA) hybrid polymeric nanoparticle to improve the bioavailability of BioPerine and its therapeutic efficacy in suppressing P-gp expression in MDA-MB 453 breast cancer cell line. Our findings revealed that the CS-PEG-BioPerine-PLA nanoparticles demonstrated a smooth spherical morphology with an average size of 316 nm, with improved aqueous solubility, and provided sustained BioPerine release. The nanoparticles also enhanced in vitro cytotoxicity and downregulation of P-gp expression in MDA-MB 453 cells compared to the commercial inhibitor verapamil hydrochloride, thus promising a piece of exciting evidence for the development of BioPerine based nano-drug delivery system in combination with traditional therapies as a crucial approach to tackling multi-drug resistance in cancers.

Abstract
One of the most important ideas ever produced by the application of materials science to the medical field is the notion of biomaterials. The nanostructured biomaterials play a crucial role in the development of new treatment strategies including not only the replacement of tissues and organs, but also repair and regeneration. They are designed to interact with damaged or injured tissues to induce regeneration, or as a forest for the production of laboratory tissues, so they must be micro-environmentally sensitive. The existing materials have many limitations, including impaired cell attachment, proliferation, and toxicity. Nanotechnology may open new avenues to bone tissue engineering by forming new assemblies similar in size and shape to the existing hierarchical bone structure. Organic and inorganic nanobiomaterials are increasingly used for bone tissue engineering applications because they may allow to overcome some of the current restrictions entailed by bone regeneration methods. This review covers the applications of different organic and inorganic nanobiomaterials in the field of hard tissue engineering.

Hydrophobic nanoprecipitates formed by benzoylphenylureas and β-cyclodextrin inclusion compounds: synthesis, characterization and toxicity against aedes aegypti larvae. Heliyon 2019; 5:e02013.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to synthesize and characterize the inclusion compounds formed by the complexation of β-cyclodextrin (βCD) with insecticides from the class of benzoylphenylureas (BPUs), named novaluron (NOV) and diflubenzuron (DIF), beyond evaluate their larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti larvae. Solid state characterization by FTIR showed changes in the main peaks of BPUs and βCD, suggesting the formation of inclusion compounds in solid phase. DTA and TGA thermal analysis showed changes in temperatures of BPUs decomposition as result of molecular interactions. 1H NMR experiments allowed to observe the occurrence of interactions in solution through changes in chemical shifts of BPUs aromatic hydrogens. However, the presence of H–H intermolecular correlations in 2D ROESY was found only for the DIF/βCD complex, suggesting different topology for each complex. Such hypothesis was corroborated by thermodynamic analysis using ITC, which showed different profile of titration curves, beyond endothermic and exothermic interactions for NOV/βCD and DIF/βCD complexes, respectively. DLS titrations of BPUs or BPUs/βCD DMSO solutions in aqueous solution demonstrated that the spontaneously formed hydrophobic nanoprecipitates (HNPs) have different profile of sizes depending on the BPU/βCD system, corroborating also with the hypothesis about the existence of different topologies for each complex. Finally, the HNPs of inclusion compounds showed to be more efficient than free BPUs, allowing proposing a new insecticide formulation.

Abstract
Responsive polymers undergo reversible or irreversible physical or chemical modifications in response to a change in environment or stimulus, e.g., temperature, pH, light, and magnetic or electric fields. Polymeric nanoparticles (NPs), which constitute a diverse set of morphologies, including micelles, vesicles, and core-shell geometries, have been successfully prepared from responsive polymers and have shown great promise in applications ranging from drug delivery to catalysis. In this review, we summarize pH, thermo-, photo-, and enzymatic responsiveness for a selection of polymers. We then discuss the formation of NPs made from responsive polymers. Finally, we highlight how NPs and other nanomaterials are enabling a wide range of smart applications with improved efficiency, as well as improved sustainability and recyclability of polymeric systems.

Abstract
Currently, with the rapid development of nanotechnology, novel drug delivery systems (DDSs) have made rapid progress, in which nanocarriers play an important role in the tumour treatment. In view of the conventional chemotherapeutic drugs with many restrictions such as nonspecific systemic toxicity, short half-life and low concentration in the tumour sites, stimuli-responsive DDSs can deliver anti-tumour drugs targeting to the specific sites of tumours. Owing to precise stimuli response, stimuli-responsive DDSs can control drug release, so as to improve the curative effects, reduce the damage of normal tissues and organs, and decrease the side effects of traditional anticancer drugs. At present, according to the physicochemical properties and structures of nanomaterials, they can be divided into three categories: (1) endogenous stimuli-responsive materials, including pH, enzyme and redox responsive materials; (2) exogenous stimuli-responsive materials, such as temperature, light, ultrasound and magnetic field responsive materials; (3) multi-stimuli responsive materials. This review mainly focuses on the researches and developments of these novel stimuli-responsive DDSs based on above-mentioned nanomaterials and their clinical applications.

Abstract
Background:
Lipid-Core Nanocapsules (LNC) containing co-encapsulated-coumaric acid
and coumarin are under development. However, there is a lack of analytical methods to assay these
bioactives in nanoformulations.
Objective:
The aim of this study was to validate an LC analytical method for the simultaneous determination
of ρ-coumaric acid and coumarin in lipid-core nanocapsules.
Methods:
The mobile phase was composed of acetonitrile:water (40:60 v/v) adjusted to pH 4 and a C-
18 reversed-phase column was used. Both bioactives were detected at 275 nm. Specificity, linearity,
range, precision and accuracy of the method were assessed, according to the official requirements.
Results:
Nanocapsules containing ρ-coumaric and coumarin had monomodal particle size distribution,
spherical-shape and Z-average size of 207 ± 2 nm. LC method was specific, linear (5 to 30 µg.mL-1),
precise (RSD < 5%) and accurate (97 - 103%). It was applied to assay the content and encapsulation
efficiency of the bioactive substances in LNC, which were close to 0.5 mg.mL-1 and 72%, respectively.
Conclusion:
The proposed analytical method is reliable for the simultaneous assay of ρ-coumaric acid
and coumarin in nanocapsules and can be further used in their development.

Abstract
A novel asymmetric photodimerization reaction of coumarin derivatives bearing the (S)-4-benzyl-2-oxazolidinone auxiliary provides only the syn-head-to-tail (syn-HT) dimer with moderate diastereoselectivity (up to 75 : 25). The mechanism of complete syn-HT selectivity and moderate diastereoselectivity is proposed based on the result of density functional theory (DFT) calculation. The benzyl group of the (S)-4-benzyl-2-oxazolidinone auxiliary in combination with a Lewis acid exerts effective diastereofacial shielding of the reaction site. Photodimerization of chiral coumarin-3-carboxamide affords the syn-HT dimer with moderate diastereoselectivity and we propose a mechanism on the basis of DFT calculations.![]()

Abstract
A kind of coumarin-modified gold nanoparticle by the bridge of dsDNA chains was designed and synthesized for sensitive detection of DNase I. The fluorescence of coumarin 343 at emission wavelengths of 491 nm excited at 440 nm was quenched by the gold nanoparticles due to the energy transfer process after the coumarin 343 was connected on the gold nanoparticles by DNA chains. When dsDNA chains were cut off by DNase I, the coumarin 343 molecules were released from gold nanoparticles and the fluorescence of coumarin 343 would be restored. The DNase I activity could be detected by this fluorescence assay with a high sensitivity based on the change of the energy transfer efficiency. The intensity of restored fluorescence is linearly related to the quantity of DNase I in the range from 1.0 to 40 mU/mL with a detection limit of 0.22 mU/mL. This design idea could render a useful way to develop similar molecular or enzyme sensor in analytical or biological fields.

Abstract
Using coumarin-modified diphenylalanine (CO-FF) and γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) as building blocks, we successfully constructed one-dimensional nanofibers with several nanometers in width and tens of micrometers in length. Through the photodimerization of coumarin units in CO-FF⊂γ-CD complexes, the resultant nanofibers could be cross-linked to organic 2D thin films with a lateral dimension of tens of micrometers and a thickness of nanometers. The resultant thin films exhibited a significant fluorescence enhancement for twisted intramolecular charge-transfer (TICT) molecules and effective removal of pollutant from water through filtration. This 1D → 2D morphological conversion controlled by light may provide a novel strategy to construct the highly ordered nanostructures that can be used as templates for making nanoscaled materials with defined sizes and shapes.

Abstract
In an effort to incorporate increasingly higher levels of functionality into soft nanoparticles, heterogeneously structured particles stand out as a simple means to enhance functionality by tailoring only particle architecture. Various means exist for the fabrication of particles with specific structural configurations; however, the tunability of particle morphology is still a challenging and often laborious task, especially in self-assembled systems where a single equilibrium configuration dominates. Improved strategies for multipatch particle assembly are therefore needed to allow for the tailoring of particle structure via a single, continuous assembly route. One means of accomplishing this is through kinetic trapping of particle morphologies along the path to the final equilibrium configuration in precipitation-induced, phase-separating polymer blends. Here, we demonstrate this capability by using rapid nanoprecipitation to control the overall size, composition, and patch distribution of soft colloids. In particular, we illustrate that polymer feed concentration, blend ratio, and polymer molecular weight can all serve as functional handles with which to consistently alter particle patch distributions in a self-assembling homopolymer system without redesigning the starting materials. We furthermore delineate the role of polymer vitrification in the determination of particle structure.

Abstract
Tissue engineering (TE) envisions the creation of functional substitutes for damaged tissues through integrated solutions, where medical, biological, and engineering principles are combined. Bone regeneration is one of the areas in which designing a model that mimics all tissue properties is still a challenge. The hierarchical structure and high vascularization of bone hampers a TE approach, especially in large bone defects. Nanotechnology can open up a new era for TE, allowing the creation of nanostructures that are comparable in size to those appearing in natural bone. Therefore, nanoengineered systems are now able to more closely mimic the structures observed in naturally occurring systems, and it is also possible to combine several approaches - such as drug delivery and cell labeling - within a single system. This review aims to cover the most recent developments on the use of different nanoparticles for bone TE, with emphasis on their application for scaffolds improvement; drug and gene delivery carriers, and labeling techniques. © 2017 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Abstract
In general, effective clinical treatment demands precision medicine, which requires specific perturbation to disease cells with no damage to normal tissue. Thus far, guaranteeing that selective therapeutic effects occur only at targeted disease areas remains a technical challenge. Among the various endeavors to achieve such an outcome, strategies based on light-controlled therapies have received special attention, mostly due to their unique advantages, including the low-invasive property and the capability to obtain spatial and temporal precision at the targeted sites via specific wavelength light irradiation. However, most conventional light-mediated therapies, especially those based on short-wavelength UV or visible light irradiation, have potential issues including limited penetration depth and harmful photo damage to healthy tissue. Therefore, the implemention of near-infrared (NIR) light illumination, which can travel into deeper tissues without causing obvious photo-induced cytotoxcity, has been suggested as a preferable option for precise phototherapeutic applications in vitro and in vivo. In this article, an overview is presented of existing therapeutic applications through NIR light-absorbed nanostructures, such as NIR light-controlled drug delivery, NIR light-mediated photothermal and photodynamic therapies. Potential challenges and relevant future prospects are also discussed.

Abstract
Amino acid-based poly(ester amide)s are a new family of biodegradable polymers that exhibit "pseudo-protein" characteristics and the structural varieties of poly(ester amide)s make them hold great potential in multiple biomedical applications. In this study, a lysine-phenylalanine-based pseudo-protein is developed as the self-assembled nanomicellar carrier for efficient delivery of doxorubicin. The lysine moieties from the pseudo-protein provide available sites for further functionalization, and methylcoumarin is introduced for easy and photocontrollable crosslinking, to effectively improve the micellar stability in serum containing environment and against dilution. However, photocrosslinks do not bring in any barrier for the intracellular release of doxoubicin. Doxorubicin release is significantly accelerated by proteolytic enzyme, due to the biodegradability of pseudo-protein micelles. In addition, pseudo-protein delivery system exhibits unique interactions with HCT116 human colon cancer cells. Doxorubicin loaded in pseudo-protein micelles colocalizes with mitochondria and endolysosomes, while free doxorubicin is distributed only in the nuclei. Doxorubicin-loaded pseudo-protein micelles stimulate increased level of intracellular reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial damage. Free doxorubicin induces conditional apoptosis in HCT116 cells between 0.5× 10-6 and 2 × 10-6 m, while DOX loaded in pseudo-protein micelles induces apoptosis over a higher/broader concentration range (2 × 10-6 -10 × 10-6 m).

Abstract
New achievements in the realm of nanoscience and innovative techniques of nanomedicine have moved micro/nanoparticles (MNPs) to the point of becoming actually useful for practical applications in the near future. Various differences between the extracellular and intracellular environments of cancerous and normal cells and the particular characteristics of tumors such as physicochemical properties, neovasculature, elasticity, surface electrical charge, and pH have motivated the design and fabrication of inventive "smart" MNPs for stimulus-responsive controlled drug release. These novel MNPs can be tailored to be responsive to pH variations, redox potential, enzymatic activation, thermal gradients, magnetic fields, light, and ultrasound (US), or can even be responsive to dual or multi-combinations of different stimuli. This unparalleled capability has increased their importance as site-specific controlled drug delivery systems (DDSs) and has encouraged their rapid development in recent years. An in-depth understanding of the underlying mechanisms of these DDS approaches is expected to further contribute to this groundbreaking field of nanomedicine. Smart nanocarriers in the form of MNPs that can be triggered by internal or external stimulus are summarized and discussed in the present review, including pH-sensitive peptides and polymers, redox-responsive micelles and nanogels, thermo- or magnetic-responsive nanoparticles (NPs), mechanical- or electrical-responsive MNPs, light or ultrasound-sensitive particles, and multi-responsive MNPs including dual stimuli-sensitive nanosheets of graphene. This review highlights the recent advances of smart MNPs categorized according to their activation stimulus (physical, chemical, or biological) and looks forward to future pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
The applications of photodynamic therapy (PDT) are usually limited by photosensitizers' side effects and singlet oxygen's short half-life. Herein, a mitochondria-targeted nanosystem is demonstrated to enhance the PDT efficacy by releasing a bio-precursor of photosensitizer under two-photon irradiation. A phototriggerable coumarin derivative is first synthesized by linking 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA, the bio-precursor) to coumarin; and the nanosystem (CD-ALA-TPP) is then fabricated by covalently incorporating this coumarin derivative and a mitochondria-targeting compound triphenylphosphonium (TPP) onto carbon dots (CDs). Upon cellular internalization, the nanosystem preferentially accumulates in mitochondria; and under one- or two-photon irradiation, it releases 5-ALA molecules that are then metabolized into protoporphyrin IX in mitochondria through a series of biosynthesis processes. The subsequent red light irradiation induces this endogenously synthesized photosensitizer to generate singlet oxygen, thereby causing oxidant damage to mitochondria and then the apoptosis of the cells. Analysis via 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays indicate that the novel PDT system exhibits enhanced cytotoxicity toward cancer cells. This study may offer a new strategy for designing PDT systems with high efficacy and low side effects.

Abstract
The coumarin analogues have been widely utilized in medicine, biology, biochemistry, and material sciences. Here, we report a detailed study on the reactivity of coumarins toward DNA. A series of coumarin analogues were synthesized and incorporated into oligodeoxynucleotides. A photoinduced [2 + 2] cycloaddition occurs between the coumarin moiety and the thymidine upon 350 nm irradiation forming both syn- and anti-cyclobutane adducts (17 and 18), which are photoreversible by 254/350 nm irradiation in DNA. Quantitative DNA interstrand cross-link (ICL) formation was observed with the coumarin moieties containing a flexible two-carbon or longer chain. DNA cross-linking by coumarins shows a kinetic preference when flanked by an A:T base pair as opposed to a G:C pair. An efficient photoinduced electron transfer between coumarin and dG slows down ICL formation. ICL formation quenches the fluorescence of coumarin, which, for the first time, enables fast, easy, and real-time monitoring of DNA cross-linking and photoreversibility via fluorescence spectroscopy. It can be used to detect the transversion mutation between pyrimidines and purines. Overall, this work provides new insights into the biochemical properties and possible toxicity of coumarins. A quantitative, fluorescence-detectable, and photoswitchable DNA cross-linking reaction of the coumarin moieties can potentially serve as mechanistic probes and tools for bioresearch without disrupting native biological environment.

Abstract
Microfluidics is an emerging and promising interdisciplinary technology which offers powerful platforms for precise production of novel functional materials (e.g., emulsion droplets, microcapsules, and nanoparticles as drug delivery vehicles- and drug molecules) as well as high-throughput analyses (e.g., bioassays, detection, and diagnostics). In particular, multiphase microfluidics is a rapidly growing technology and has beneficial applications in various fields including biomedicals, chemicals, and foods. In this review, we first describe the fundamentals and latest developments in multiphase microfluidics for producing biocompatible materials that are precisely controlled in size, shape, internal morphology and composition. We next describe some microfluidic applications that synthesize drug molecules, handle biological substances and biological units, and imitate biological organs. We also highlight and discuss design, applications and scale up of droplet- and flow-based microfluidic devices used for drug discovery and delivery.
