[PMID: 39079566 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134233] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 07/08/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 08/23/2024]
Abstract
With the increasingly rapid pace of updates and iterations in electronic devices, electronic equipment/systems are becoming progressively intricate, aiming to achieve swift responsiveness through higher packaging density, which leads to electromagnetic interference and brings along with it heat accumulation, the creation of new composite phase change materials with efficient thermal management capabilities integrated with excellent electromagnetic interference shielding capabilities is imminent. In this study, nickel foam/lignin/rGO dual network scaffolds (LGN) with high electrical conductivity were prepared by vacuum-assisted adsorption, freeze-drying, and thermal annealing, and then PEG was encapsulated in LGN by vacuum impregnation to obtain shape-stabilized PEG/NiF/LN-rGO (PLGN) composite phase change material. The results demonstrate that the prepared PLGNs exhibit robust stability, exceptional thermal management capabilities, and commendable electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE). Among these composites, PLGN-3 stands out with a notably high energy storage density, featuring a melting enthalpy of 140.95 J/g and a relative enthalpy efficiency of 98.72%. Benefiting from its outstanding electrical conductivity (1597.5 S/cm for PLGN-3) and superior light absorption, the PLGN composite phase change material also demonstrates highly effective photothermal and electrothermal conversion capabilities. In addition, the EMI shielding effectiveness reaches up to 69.9 dB at 8.2-12.4 GHz. In conclusion, the synthesized PLGN composite phase change material demonstrates considerable promise for mitigating electromagnetic interference and facilitating thermal energy management in electronic devices.

An iron-based metal-organic framework nanoplatform for enhanced ferroptosis and oridonin delivery as a comprehensive antitumor strategy. Acta Pharm Sin B 2024; 14:4073-4086. [PMID: 39309488 PMCID: PMC11413704 DOI: 10.1016/j.apsb.2024.05.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 09/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Ferroptosis is a recently discovered pathway for regulated cell death pathway. However, its efficacy is affected by limited iron content and intracellular ion homeostasis. Here, we designed a metal-organic framework (MOF)-based nanoplatform that incorporates calcium peroxide (CaO2) and oridonin (ORI). This platform can improve the tumor microenvironment and disrupt intracellular iron homeostasis, thereby enhancing ferroptosis therapy. Fused cell membranes (FM) were used to modify nanoparticles (ORI@CaO2@Fe-TCPP, NPs) to produce FM@ORI@CaO2@Fe-TCPP (FM@NPs). The encapsulated ORI inhibited the HSPB1/PCBP1/IREB2 and FSP1/COQ10 pathways simultaneously, working in tandem with Fe3+ to induce ferroptosis. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) guided by porphyrin (TCPP) significantly enhanced ferroptosis through excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This self-amplifying strategy promoted robust ferroptosis, which could work synergistically with FM-mediated immunotherapy. In vivo experiments showed that FM@NPs inhibited 91.57% of melanoma cells within six days, a rate 5.6 times higher than chemotherapy alone. FM@NPs were biodegraded and directly eliminated in the urine or faeces without substantial toxicity. Thus, this study demonstrated that combining immunotherapy with efficient ferroptosis induction through nanotechnology is a feasible and promising strategy for melanoma treatment.

Clin Chim Acta 2024; 562:119871. [PMID: 39009333 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2024.119871] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2024] [Revised: 07/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024]
Abstract
Leukemia, a type of blood cancer marked by an abnormal increase in white blood cells, poses a significant challenge to healthcare. The key to successful treatment lies in early detection. However, traditional methods often fall short. This review investigates the potential of electrochemical biosensors for a more accurate and earlier diagnosis of leukemia. Electrochemical biosensors are compact devices that transform biological interactions into electrical signals. Their small size, ease of use, and minimal sample requirements make them perfectly suited for point-of-care applications. Their remarkable sensitivity and specificity enable the detection of subtle biomolecular changes associated with leukemia, which is crucial for early disease detection. This review delves into studies that have utilized these biosensors to identify various types of leukemia. It examines the roles of electrodes, biorecognition elements, and signal transduction mechanisms. The discussion includes the integration of nanomaterials such as gold nanoparticles and nitrogen-doped graphene into biosensor design. These materials boost sensitivity, enhance signal amplification, and facilitate multi-analyte detection, thereby providing a more holistic view of the disease. Beyond technical advancements, the review underscores the practical benefits of these biosensors. Their portability makes them a promising tool for resource-constrained settings, enabling swift diagnosis in remote areas or at a patient's bedside. The potential for monitoring treatment effectiveness and detecting minimal residual disease to prevent relapse is also explored. This review emphasizes the transformative potential of electrochemical biosensors in combating leukemia. By facilitating earlier and more accurate diagnosis, these biosensors stand to revolutionize patient care and enhance treatment outcomes.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment of glioblastoma IDH-wildtype is highly immune suppressive and is characterized by a strong component of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). To interfere with the immune suppressive functions of MDSCs, a comprehensive understanding on how MDSCs acquire their suppressive phenotype is essential. Previously, we and others have shown a distinct Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (Siglec) receptor expression profile for MDSCs in glioblastoma. Siglec receptors can transmit inhibitory signals comparable to PD-1 and are suggested to act as glyco-immune checkpoints. Here, we investigated how glioma specific Siglec-sialic acid interactions influence myeloid immune suppressive functions. Co-culturing monocytes with glioblastoma cells induced CD163 expression on the monocytes. Upon desialylation of the glioblastoma cells, this induction of CD163 was hampered, and furthermore, the monocytes were now able to secrete higher amounts of IL-6 and TNFα compared to fully sialylated glioblastoma cells. Additionally, Siglec-specific triggering using anti-Siglec-7 or Siglec-9 antibodies displayed a decreased TNFα secretion by the monocytes, validating the role of the Siglec-Sialic axis in the co-culture experiments. Together, our results demonstrate that glioblastoma cells induce a myeloid immune-suppressive phenotype that could be partly rescued by lowering the glioblastoma-associated sialic acid levels. This manuscript supports further research of the Siglec-Sialic acid axis in the context of glioblastoma and its potential to improve clinical outcome.

Abstract
The spleen, body's largest secondary lymphoid organ, is also a vital hematopoietic and immunological organ. It is regarded as one of the most significant organs in humans. As more researchers recognize the functions of the spleen, clinical methods for treating splenic diseases and spleen-targeted drug delivery systems to improve the efficacy of spleen-related therapies have gradually developed. Many modification strategies (size, charge, ligand, protein corona) and hitchhiking strategies (erythrocytes, neutrophils) of nanoparticles (NPs) have shown a significant increase in spleen targeting efficiency. However, most of the targeted drug therapy strategies for the spleen are to enhance or inhibit the immune function of the spleen to achieve therapeutic effects, and there are few studies on spleen-related diseases. In this review, we not only provide a detailed summary of the design rules for spleen-targeted drug delivery systems in recent years, but also introduce common spleen diseases (splenic tumors, splenic injuries, and splenomegaly) with the hopes of generating more ideas for future spleen research.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading cause of cancer-related death in men, and most PCa patients treated with androgen deprivation therapy will progress to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) due to the lack of efficient treatment. Recently, lots of research indicated that photothermal therapy (PTT) was a promising alternative that provided an accurate and efficient prostate cancer therapy. A photothermic agent (PTA) is a basic component of PPT and is divided into organic and inorganic PTAs. Besides, the combination of PTT and other therapies, such as photodynamic therapy (PDT), immunotherapy (IT), chemotherapy (CT), etc., provides an more efficient strategy for PCa therapy. Here, we introduce basic information about PTT and summarize the PTT treatment strategies for prostate cancer. Based on recent works, we think the combination of PPT and other therapies provides a novel possibility for PCa, especially CRPC clinical treatment.

Abstract
Across the globe, the task of providing clean and safe drinking water is getting harder. Organic contaminants, including dyes and pharmaceutical medications, are a significant environmental threat, especially in aquatic bodies due to their uncontrolled emission. Therefore, a method for their degradation in water bodies that is both environmentally friendly and commercially feasible must be developed. In the realm of photocatalysis, carbon-based nanomaterials have drawn more attention in the last ten years. Due to their exceptional and distinct qualities, metal-free carbon-based photocatalytic systems have received a lot of attention recently for their ability to degrade organic contaminants into semiconductor quantum dots, which are already available. A class of nanomaterials with a particle size between 2 and 10 nm showing distinct optoelectrical characteristics is among the variety of catalytic quantum dots. This review covers several synthesis techniques such as electrochemical, laser ablation, microwave radiation, hydrothermal, and optical features of CQDs such as the photoluminescent (PL) property and quantum confinement effect. The uses of CQDs in the degradation of various dyes as well as the difficulties that still exist and the opportunities that lie ahead have also been explored.

Abstract
Recent developments in nanoscale materials have found extensive use in various fields, especially in the biomedical industry. Several substantial obstacles must be overcome, particularly those related to nanostructured materials in biomedicine, before they can be used in therapeutic applications. Significant concerns in biomedicine include biological processes, adaptability, toxic effects, and nano-biointerfacial properties. Biomedical researchers have difficulty choosing suitable materials for drug carriers, cancer treatment, and antiviral uses. Carbon nanomaterials are among the various nanoparticle forms that are continually receiving interest for biomedical applications. They are suitable materials owing to their distinctive physical and chemical properties, such as electrical, high-temperature, mechanical, and optical diversification. An individualized, controlled, dependable, low-carcinogenic, target-specific drug delivery system can diagnose and treat infections in biomedical applications. The variety of carbon materials at the nanoscale is remarkable. Allotropes and other forms of the same element, carbon, are represented in nanoscale dimensions. These show promise for a wide range of applications. Carbon nanostructured materials with exceptional mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties include graphene and carbon nanotubes. They can potentially revolutionize industries, including electronics, energy, and medicine. Ongoing investigation and expansion efforts continue to unlock possibilities for these materials, making them a key player in shaping the future of advanced technology. Carbon nanostructured materials explore the potential positive effects of reducing the greenhouse effect. The current state of nanostructured materials in the biomedical sector is covered in this review, along with their synthesis techniques and potential uses.

Abstract
Cancer is a severe disease that, in 2022, caused more than 9.89 million deaths worldwide. One worrisome type of cancer is bone cancer, such as osteosarcoma and Ewing tumors, which occur more frequently in infants. This study shows an active interest in the use of graphene oxide and its derivatives in therapy against bone cancer. We present a systematic review analyzing the current state of the art related to the use of GO in treating osteosarcoma, through evaluating the existing literature. In this sense, studies focused on GO-based nanomaterials for potential applications against osteosarcoma were reviewed, which has revealed that there is an excellent trend toward the use of GO-based nanomaterials, based on their thermal and anti-cancer activities, for the treatment of osteosarcoma through various therapeutic approaches. However, more research is needed to develop highly efficient localized therapies. It is suggested, therefore, that photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, and the use of nanocarriers should be considered as non-invasive, more specific, and efficient alternatives in the treatment of osteosarcoma. These options present promising approaches to enhance the effectiveness of therapy while also seeking to reduce side effects and minimize the damage to surrounding healthy tissues. The bibliometric analysis of photothermal and photochemical treatments of graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide from January 2004 to December 2022 extracted 948 documents with its search strategy, mainly related to research papers, review papers, and conference papers, demonstrating a high-impact field supported by the need for more selective and efficient bone cancer therapies. The central countries leading the research are the United States, Iran, Italy, Germany, China, South Korea, and Australia, with strong collaborations worldwide. At the same time, the most-cited papers were published in journals with impact factors of more than 6.0 (2021), with more than 290 citations. Additionally, the journals that published the most on the topic are high impact factor journals, according to the analysis performed, demonstrating the high impact of the research field.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Fear of pain in dentistry especially the injection involved in most of the processes has always been an important issue preventing the patients from consulting a dentist at the right time. This study aims to evaluate the effect of photobiomodulation therapy on reduction of pain in infiltration injection. MATERIALS AND METHODS This trial is a crossover study including 30 patients. The patients are divided into two groups (laser therapy in the first period and placebo effect in the next period or vice versa with split-mouth design) using the covariate adaptive randomization method. All the patients received bilateral maxillary canine anesthesia in two periods performed with an ICT injection device (amount of anesthesia solution loaded: 1.8 mL) at a speed of 1 mL/min and a temperature of the solution of 37 °C. In each period, patients received either a prophylactic dose of 940-nm laser (500 mW, 10 J/cm2) or its placebo effect before the injection. The degree of pain perception after each sort of treatment is evaluated by both SEM (Sound, Eye, Motor, and Pain) and VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) scales. RESULTS According to analysis, all the patients scored a VAS scale under 3 in the period they received intervention. Also considering the SEM scale, most of the patients scored 0 in the intervention period. No adverse effect was reported during or after the process.

Abstract
Choriocarcinoma can be cured by chemotherapy, but this causes resistance and severe side effects that bring about physical and psychological consequences for patients. Therefore, there is still an urgent need to find other alternative minimally invasive therapies to halt the progression of choriocarcinoma. Novel carbon-coated selenium nanoparticles (C-Se) were successfully synthesized for choriocarcinoma photothermal therapy. C-Se combined with near-infrared laser irradiation can inhibit the proliferation of human choriocarcinoma (JEG-3) cells and induce cell apoptosis. C-Se killed cells and produced ROS under near-infrared laser irradiation. Finally, the therapeutic mechanism of C-Se + laser was explored showing that C-Se + laser influenced numerous biological processes. Taken together, C-Se exhibited significant potential for choriocarcinoma photothermal therapy.

Abstract
We demonstrate the development of a label-free, impedance-based biosensor by using a passivation layer of 50-nm tantalum pentoxide (Ta2O5) on interdigitated electrodes (IDE). This layer was fabricated by atomic layer deposition (ALD) and has a high dielectric constant (high-κ), which improves the capacitive property of the IDE. We validate the biosensor's performance by measuring uromodulin, a urine biomarker for kidney tubular damage, from artificial urine samples. The passivation layer is functionalized with uromodulin antibodies for selective binding. The passivated IDE enables the non-faradaic impedance measurement of uromodulin concentrations with a measurement range from 0.5 ng/mL to 8 ng/mL and with a relative change in impedance of 15 % per ng/mL at a frequency of 150 Hz (log scale). This work presents a concept for point-of-care biosensing applications for disease biomarkers.

Abstract
AIMS Oral mucosal diseases can lead to pain, difficulty speaking and eating, psychological distress, and cancer. Topical drug delivery using biological macromolecules, specifically hydrogels, is gaining interest due to the drawbacks of conventional treatments for oral mucosal lesions. SCOPE Biological hydrogels made from natural polymers and their derivatives, such as chitosan, hyaluronic acid, alginate, and gelatin, represent promising alternatives to conventional oral medication delivery methods. Topical drug delivery is beneficial for oral mucosal lesions as it can directly target the affected area, especially with the development of smart stimuli-responsive hydrogels, which allow for more controlled drug release. Biological hydrogels have already been used to deliver drugs like lidocaine and nystatin. This review summarizes the current research on applying smart natural polymer-based hydrogels for drug delivery in oral mucosal lesions. CONCLUSION Smart biological hydrogels show great promise as topical drug delivery systems for oral mucosal lesions, offering sustained drug release, increased therapeutic efficacy, and minimized systemic complications. Technological advancement is expected to lead to the development of more effective and safer drug delivery systems. The potential benefits of biological polymer-based hydrogels make them an exciting area of research for oral mucosal lesion treatment.

Abstract
LDs (Lipid droplets) are key organelles for lipid metabolism and storage, which are closely related to ferroptosis and fatty liver. Due to its small size and highly dynamic nature, developing high-fidelity fluorescent probes for imaging of LDs is crucial for observing the dynamic physiological processes of LDs and investigating LDs-associated diseases. Herein, we synthesized three dicyanoisophorone-based fluorescent probes (DCIMe, DCIJ, and DCIQ) with different electron-donating groups and studied their imaging performance for LDs. The results show that DCIQ is highly polarity sensitive and can perform high-fidelity imaging for LDs, with significantly better performance than DCIMe, DCIJ, and commercial LD probe BODIPY 493/503. Based on this, DCIQ was successfully applied to real-time observe the interplays between LDs and other organelles (mitochondria, lysosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum), and to image the dynamics of LDs with fast scanning mode (0.44 s/frame) and the generation of oleic acid-induced LDs with high-fidelity. Finally, DCIQ was used to study the changes of LDs in the ferroptosis process and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease tissues. Overall, this study provided a powerful tool for high-fidelity imaging of LDs in cells and tissues.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials as drug carriers and photosensitizers have emerged as a promising antitumor strategy. However, our understanding of 2D antitumor nanomaterials is limited to intrinsic properties or additive modification of different materials. Subtractive structural engineering of 2D nanomaterials for better antitumor efficacy is largely overlooked. Here, subtractively engineered 2D MXenes with uniformly distributed nanopores are synthesized. The nanoporous defects endowed MXene with enhanced surface plasmon resonance effect for better optical absorbance performance and strong exciton-phonon coupling for higher photothermal conversion efficiency. In addition, porous structure improves the binding ability between drug and unsaturated bonds, thus promoting drug-loading capacity and reducing uncontrolled drug release. Furthermore, the porous structure provides adhesion sites for filopodia, thereby promoting the cellular internalization of the drug. Clinically, osteosarcoma is the most common bone malignancy routinely treated with doxorubicin-based chemotherapy. There have been no significant treatment advances in the past decade. As a proof-of-concept, nanoporous MXene loaded with doxorubicin is developed for treating human osteosarcoma cells. The porous MXene platform results in a higher amount of doxorubicin-loading, faster near-infrared (NIR)-controlled doxorubicin release, higher photothermal efficacy under NIR irradiation, and increased cell adhesion and internalization. This facile method pioneers a new paradigm for enhancing 2D material functions and is attractive for tumor treatment.

Abstract
The stability and transformation of nanomaterial aqueous suspensions are essential for their applications. Preparation of high-concentration carbon nanomaterials suspensions remains challenging due to their nonpolar nature. Herein, 200 mg mL-1 carbon nanomaterial aqueous suspensions are achieved by using graphite-like crystalline nanosheets (GCNs) with high hydrophilicity. Furthermore, these high-concentration GCN aqueous suspensions spontaneously transform into gels when induced by mono-, di-, and trivalent metal salt electrolytes at room temperature. Theoretical calculation of potential energy by DLVO theory reveals that the gelatinized GCNs is a new and metastable state between two usual forms of solution and coagulation. It is shown that the gelation of GCNs is due to the preferential orientation of nanosheets in an edge-edge arrangement, which differs from the case of solution and coagulation. High-temperature treatment of GCN gels produces metal/carbon materials with pore structures. This work provides a promising opportunity to create various metal/carbon functional materials.

Abstract
The photoconvertible fluorophore synthesis enables the light controlled imaging channels switch for accurate tracking the quantity and localization of intracellular biomolecules in chemical biology. Herein, we repurposed the photochemistry of Fischer's base and developed a sunlight-directed fluorophore-switch strategy for high-efficiency trimethine cyanine (Cy3.5/Cy3) synthesis. The unexpected sunlight-directed photoconversion of Fischer's base proceeds in conventional solvents and accelerates in chloroform via photo-oxidation and hydrogen atom transfer without using extra additives, and the heterogenous dimerization mechanism was proposed and confirmed by isolation of the reactive intermediates. The reliable strategy is employed in the photosynthesis of commercially available cytomembrane marker (DiI) and other cyanine based organelle markers with appreciable yields. Sunlight-controlled fluorophore-switch of subcellular organelle markers in living cells validated the feasibility of our strategy with cell-tolerant character. Moreover, remote control synthesis of Cy3.5 in vivo directed via sunlight further demonstrated the extended application of our strategy. Therefore, this sunlight-directed strategy will facilitate exploitation of cyanine-based probes with switched fluorescence imaging channels and further enable precise description of the dynamic variations in living cells with minimal autofluorescence and cellular disturbance.

Abstract
We investigate the interactions between C-reactive protein (CRP) and new CRP-binding peptide materials using experimental (biological and physicochemical) methods with the support of theoretical simulations (computational modeling analysis). Three specific CRP-binding peptides (P2, P3, and P9) derived from an M13 bacteriophage have been identified using phage-display technology. The binding efficiency of the peptides exposed on phages toward the CRP protein was demonstrated via biological methods. Fibers of the selected phages/peptides interact differently due to different compositions of amino acid sequences on the exposed peptides, which was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy. Numerical and experimental studies consistently showed that the P3 peptide is the best CRP binder. A combination of theoretical and experimental methods demonstrates that identifying the best binder can be performed simply, cheaply, and fast. Such an approach has not been reported previously for peptide screening and demonstrates a new trend in science where calculations can replace or support laborious experimental techniques. Finally, the best CRP binder─the P3 peptide─was used for CRP recognition on silicate-modified indium tin oxide-coated glass electrodes. The obtained electrodes exhibit a wide range of operation (1.0-100 μg mL-1) with a detection limit (LOD = 3σ/S) of 0.34 μg mL-1. Moreover, the dissociation constant Kd of 4.2 ± 0.144 μg mL-1 (35 ± 1.2 nM) was evaluated from the change in the current. The selectivity of the obtained electrode was demonstrated in the presence of three interfering proteins. These results prove that the presented P3 peptide is a potential candidate as a receptor for CRP, which can replace specific antibodies.

Abstract
Graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNMs), specifically graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), have shown great potential in cancer therapy owing to their physicochemical properties. As GO and rGO strongly absorb light in the near-infrared (NIR) region, they are useful in photothermal therapy (PTT) for cancer treatment. However, despite the structural similarities of GO and rGO, they exhibit different influences on anticancer treatment due to their different photothermal capacities. In this review, various characterization techniques used to compare the structural features of GO and rGO are first outlined. Then, a comprehensive summary and discussion of the applicability of GBNMs in the context of PTT for diverse cancer types are presented. This discussion includes the integration of PTT with secondary therapeutic strategies, with a particular focus on the photothermal capacity achieved through near-infrared irradiation parameters and the modifications implemented. Furthermore, a dedicated section is devoted to studies on hybrid magnetic-GBNMs. Finally, the challenges and prospects associated with the utilization of GBNM in PTT, with a primary emphasis on the potential for clinical translation, are addressed.

Abstract
Two-Dimensional (2D) materials have attracted immense attention in recent years. These materials have found their applications in various fields, such as catalysis, adsorption, energy storage, and sensing, as they exhibit excellent physical, chemical, electronic, photonic, and biological properties. Recently, researchers have focused on constructing porous structures on 2D materials. Various strategies, such as chemical etching and template-based methods, for the development of surface pores are reported, and the porous 2D materials fabricated over the years are used to develop supercapacitors and energy storage devices. Moreover, the lattice structure of the 2D materials can be modulated during the construction of porous structures to develop 2D materials that can be used in various fields such as lattice defects in 2D nanomaterials for enhancing biomedical performances. This review focuses on the recently developed chemical etching, solvent thermal synthesis, microwave combustion, and template methods that are used to fabricate porous 2D materials. The application prospects of the porous 2D materials are summarized. Finally, the key scientific challenges associated with developing porous 2D materials are presented to provide a platform for developing porous 2D materials.

Int J Nanomedicine 2023; 18:4779-4804. [PMID: 37635909 PMCID: PMC10460188 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s413831] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 06/19/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Tumors are the second-most common disease in the world, killing people at an alarming rate. As issues with drug resistance, lack of targeting, and severe side effects are revealed, there is a growing demand for precision-targeted drug delivery systems. Plant-derived nanovesicles (PDNVs), which arecomposed of proteins, lipids, RNA, and metabolites, are widely distributed and readily accessible. The potential for anti-proliferative, pro-apoptotic, and drug-resistant-reversing effects on tumor cells, as well as the ability to alter the tumor microenvironment (TME) by modulating tumor-specific immune cells, make PDNVs promising anti-tumor therapeutics. With a lipid bilayer structure that allows drug loading and a transmembrane capacity readily endocytosed by cells, PDNVs are also expected to become a new drug delivery platform. Exogenous modifications of PDNVs enhance their circulating stability, tumor targeting ability, high cell endocytosis rate, and controlled-release capacity. In this review, we summarize PDNVs' natural antitumor activity, as well as engineered PDNVs as efficient precision-targeted drug delivery tools that enhance therapeutic effects. Additionally, we discuss critical considerations related to the issues raised in this area, which will encourage researchers to improve PDNVs as better anti-tumor therapeutics for clinic applications.

Abstract
Although many carriers for the delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs have been investigated, the disadvantages of passive targeting and uncontrolled drug release limit their utility. Herein, hyaluronic acid (HA) was hydrophobically modified to serve as a carrier for binding to cluster determinant 44 (CD44) overexpressed on tumor cell surfaces. Specifically, after deacetylation, HA was grafted to dodecylamine or tetradecylamine to afford amphiphilic zwitterionic polymer micelles, designated dHAD and dHAT, respectively, for the delivery of paclitaxel (PTX). The micelles were negatively charged at pH 7.4 and positively charged at pH 5.6, and this pH sensitivity facilitated PTX release under acidic conditions. The cell uptake efficiencies of the dHAD-PTX and dHAT-PTX micelles by MCF-7 cells after 4 h of incubation were 96.9% and 95.4%, respectively, and their affinities for CD44 were twice that of HA. Furthermore, the micelles markedly inhibited tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo, with IC50 values of 1.943 μg/mL for dHAD-PTX and 1.874 μg/mL for dHAT-PTX for MCF-7 cells; the tumor inhibition rate of dHAD-PTX (92.96%) was higher than that of dHAT-PTX (78.65%). Importantly, dHAD and dHAT micelles showed negligible systemic toxicity. Our findings suggest that these micelles are promising delivery vehicles for antitumor drugs.

Abstract
Rapid development of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in delivering pharmaceutics and therapeutics approaches still linger the concerns of their toxic effects. Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is characterized by excessive lipid accumulation and overt hepatic inflammatory damage, and is the leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. This study aimed to assess the potential hepatic effects of GNPs on NASH phenotype and progression in mice. Mice were fed a MCD diet for 8 weeks to elicit NASH and then intravenously injected with PEG-GNPs at a single dose of 1, 5, and 25 mg/kg-bw. After 24 h and 1 week of administration, the levels of plasma ALT and AST, and the number of lipid droplets, the degree of lobular inflammation and the contents of triglycerides and cholesterols in the livers of the NASH mice significantly increased compared with the untreated NASH mice, indicating that the severity of MCD diet-induced NASH-like symptoms in mice increased after PEG-GNP administration. Moreover, the aggravated hepatic steatosis in a manner involving altered expression of the genes related to hepatic de novo lipogenesis, lipolysis, and fatty acid oxidation was observed after PEG-GNP administration. Additionally, the RNA levels of biomarkers of hepatic pro-inflammatory responses, endoplasmic reticulum stress, apoptosis, and autophagy in MCD-fed mice increased compared with the untreated NASH group. Moreover, PEG-GNP-treated NASH mice displayed an increase in MCD diet-induced hepatic fibrosis, revealed by massive deposition of collagen fiber in the liver and increased expression of fibrogenic genes. Collectively, these results suggest that hepatic GNP deposition after PEG-GNP administration increase the severity of MCD-induced NASH phenotype in mice, which is attributable to, in large part, increased steatohepatitic injury and liver fibrosis in mice.

Abstract
Sulfur- and nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (S,N-CQDs) were synthesized using feijoa leaves as a green precursor via a novel route. Spectroscopic and microscopic methods such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy were used to analyze the synthesized materials. The blue emissive S,N-CQDs were applied for qualitative and quantitative determination of levodopa (L-DOPA) in aqueous environmental and real samples. Human blood serum and urine were used as real samples with good recovery of 98.4-104.6 and 97.3-104.3%, respectively. A smartphone-based fluorimeter device was employed as a novel and user-friendly self-product device for pictorial determination of L-DOPA. Bacterial cellulose nanopaper (BC) was used as a substrate for S,N-CQDs to make an optical nanopaper-based sensor for L-DOPA determination. The S,N-CQDs demonstrated good selectivity and sensitivity. The interaction of L-DOPA with the functional groups of the S,N-CQDs via the photo-induced electron transfer (PET) mechanism quenched the fluorescence of S,N-CQDs. The PET process was studied using fluorescence lifetime decay, which confirmed the dynamic quenching of S,N-CQD fluorescence. The limit of detection (LOD) of S,N-CQDs in aqueous solution and the nanopaper-based sensor was 0.45 μM in the concentration range of 1-50 μM and 31.05 μM in the concentration range of 1-250 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Rapid progress in nanotechnology has advanced fundamental neuroscience and innovative treatment using combined diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The atomic scale tunability of nanomaterials, which can interact with biological systems, has attracted interest in emerging multidisciplinary fields. Graphene, a two-dimensional nanocarbon, has gained increasing attention in neuroscience due to its unique honeycomb structure and functional properties. Hydrophobic planar sheets of graphene can be effectively loaded with aromatic molecules to produce a defect-free and stable dispersion. The optical and thermal properties of graphene make it suitable for biosensing and bioimaging applications. In addition, graphene and its derivatives functionalized with tailored bioactive molecules can cross the blood-brain barrier for drug delivery, substantially improving their biological property. Therefore, graphene-based materials have promising potential for possible application in neuroscience. Herein, we aimed to summarize the important properties of graphene materials required for their application in neuroscience, the interaction between graphene-based materials and various cells in the central and peripheral nervous systems, and their potential clinical applications in recording electrodes, drug delivery, treatment, and as nerve scaffolds for neurological diseases. Finally, we offer insights into the prospects and limitations to aid graphene development in neuroscience research and nanotherapeutics that can be used clinically.

Abstract
Graphene oxide is a promising nanomaterial with many potential applications. However, before it can be widely used in areas such as drug delivery and medical diagnostics, its influence on various cell populations in the human body must be studied to ensure its safety. We investigated the interaction of graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles with human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) in the Cell-IQ system, evaluating cell viability, mobility, and growth rate. GO nanoparticles of different sizes coated with linear or branched polyethylene glycol (P or bP, respectively) were used at concentrations of 5 and 25 μg/mL. Designations were the following: P-GOs (Ø 184 ± 73 nm), bP-GOs (Ø 287 ± 52 nm), P-GOb (Ø 569 ± 14 nm), and bP-GOb (Ø 1376 ± 48 nm). After incubating the cells with all types of nanoparticles for 24 h, the internalization of the nanoparticles by the cells was observed. We found that all GO nanoparticles used in this study exerted a cytotoxic effect on hMSCs when used at a high concentration (25 μg/mL), whereas at a low concentration (5 μg/mL) a cytotoxic effect was observed only for bP-GOb particles. We also found that P-GOs particles decreased cell mobility at a concentration of 25 μg/mL, whereas bP-GOb particles increased it. Larger particles (P-GOb and bP-GOb) increased the rate of movement of hMSCs regardless of concentration. There were no statistically significant differences in the growth rate of cells compared with the control group.

Abstract
The alternative antibacterial treatment photothermal therapy (PTT) significantly affects oral microbiota inactivation. In this work, graphene with photothermal properties was coated on a zirconia surface using atmospheric pressure plasma, and then the antibacterial properties against oral bacteria were evaluated. For the graphene oxide coating on the zirconia specimens, an atmospheric pressure plasma generator (PGS-300, Expantech, Suwon, Republic of Korea) was used, and an Ar/CH4 gas mixture was coated on a zirconia specimen at a power of 240 W and a rate of 10 L/min. In the physiological property test, the surface properties were evaluated by measuring the surface shape of the zirconia specimen coated with graphene oxide, as well as the chemical composition and contact angle of the surface. In the biological experiment, the degree of adhesion of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) was determined by crystal violet assay and live/dead staining. All statistical analyzes were performed using SPSS 21.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The group in which the zirconia specimen coated with graphene oxide was irradiated with near-infrared rays demonstrated a significant reduction in the adhesion of S. mutans and P. gingivalis compared with the group not irradiated. The oral microbiota inactivation was reduced by the photothermal effect on the zirconia coated with graphene oxide, exhibiting photothermal properties.

Abstract
Various biomaterials have been evaluated to enhance bone formation in critical-sized bone defects; however, the ideal scaffold is still missing. The objective of this study was to investigate the in vitro and in vivo regenerative capacity of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and graphene oxide (GO) nanomaterials to stimulate critical-sized bone defect regeneration. The in vitro cytotoxicity and hemocompatibility of g-C3N4 and GO were evaluated, and their potential to induce the in vitro osteogenesis of human fetal osteoblast (hFOB) cells was assessed using qPCR. Then, bone defect in femoral condyles was created in rabbits and left empty as control or filled with either g-C3N4 or GO. The osteogenesis of the different implanted scaffolds was evaluated after 4, 8, and 12 weeks of surgery using X-ray, computed tomography (CT), macro/microscopic examinations, and qPCR analysis of osteocalcin (OC) and osteopontin (OP) expressions. Both materials displayed good cell viability and hemocompatibility with enhanced collagen type-I (Col-I), OC, and OP expressions of the hFOB cells. Compared to the control group, the bone healing process in g-C3N4 and GO groups was promoted in vivo. Moreover, complete healing of the bone defect was observed radiologically and grossly in g-C3N4 implanted group. Additionally, g-C3N4 implanted group showed higher percentages of osteoid tissue, mature collagen, biodegradation, and expressions of OC and OP. In conclusion, our results revealed that g-C3N4 and GO nanomaterials could induce osteogenesis in critical-sized bone defects.

Abstract
Purpose Graphene oxide (GO) and its derivatives have recently been identified as promising candidates for early disease diagnosis and therapy. However, the physiological stability and precise launch requirements present limitations on further clinical practices. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were employed as an unobstructed biological vehicle to address the validate this ADSC-based tumor-targeting system for highly efficient GO delivery combined with two-stage NIR radiation for superior tumor ablation. Methods GO was modified with poly-ethylene glycol (PEG) and folic acid (FA). Afterward, the GO nanocomposite was internalized into ADSCs. The GO-PEG-FA-laden ADSCs were injected into the tail veins of the tumor-bearing mice. Subsequently, first-stage NIR radiation was utilized to disrupt the ADSCs for GO-PEG-FA release. After this, the heat generated by secondary-stage NIR radiation destroy the malignant cells and shrink the tumor, and the cascade process could be recycled until complete tumor ablation if necessary. Results The GO-PEG-FA nanocomposite exhibited negligible cytotoxicity and could be internalized into ADSCs to target specific tumor sites after 32 days of intravenous injection. The nanocomposite was released from the ADSCs and taken up into cancer cells again with the assistance of FA after the first dose of near-infrared radiation. Then, the second radiation dose could directly strike the cancer cell for cancer ablation. Conclusion In summary, we reported a stem cell-based anticancer system that used GO-PEG-FA-laden ADSCs for breast cancer therapy through NIR treatment in mice potentially opens a new avenue not only to address precise drug targeting in tumor therapy, but also future clinical practice in diverse areas.

Abstract
Biohybrid micro/nanobots have emerged as an innovative resource to be employed in the biomedical field due to their biocompatible and biodegradable properties. These are tiny nanomaterial-based integrated structures engineered in a way that they can move autonomously and perform the programmed tasks efficiently even at hard-to-reach organ/tissues/cellular sites. The biohybrid micro/nanobots can either be cell/bacterial/enzyme-based or may mimic the properties of an active molecule. It holds the potential to change the landscape in various areas of biomedical including early diagnosis of disease, therapeutics, imaging, or precision surgery. The propulsion mechanism of the biohybrid micro/nanobots can be both fuel-based and fuel-free, but the most effective and easiest way to propel these micro/nanobots is via enzymes. Micro/nanobots possess the feature to adsorb/functionalize chemicals or drugs at their surfaces thus offering the scope of delivering drugs at the targeted locations. They also have shown immense potential in intracellular sensing of biomolecules and molecular events. Moreover, with recent progress in the material development and processing is required for enhanced activity and robustness the fabrication is done via various advanced techniques to avoid self-degradation and cause cellular toxicity during autonomous movement in biological medium. In this review, various approaches of design, architecture, and performance of such micro/nanobots have been illustrated along with their potential applications in controlled cargo release, therapeutics, intracellular sensing, and bioimaging. Furthermore, it is also foregrounding their advancement offering an insight into their future scopes, opportunities, and challenges involved in advanced biomedical applications.

Abstract
A proper self-regenerating capability is lacking in human cardiac tissue which along with the alarming rate of deaths associated with cardiovascular disorders makes tissue engineering critical. Novel approaches are now being investigated in order to speedily overcome the challenges in this path. Tissue engineering has been revolutionized by the advent of nanomaterials, and later by the application of carbon-based nanomaterials because of their exceptional variable functionality, conductivity, and mechanical properties. Electrically conductive biomaterials used as cell bearers provide the tissue with an appropriate microenvironment for the specific seeded cells as substrates for the sake of protecting cells in biological media against attacking mechanisms. Nevertheless, their advantages and shortcoming in view of cellular behavior, toxicity, and targeted delivery depend on the tissue in which they are implanted or being used as a scaffold. This review seeks to address, summarize, classify, conceptualize, and discuss the use of carbon-based nanoparticles in cardiac tissue engineering emphasizing their conductivity. We considered electrical conductivity as a key affecting the regeneration of cells. Correspondingly, we reviewed conductive polymers used in tissue engineering and specifically in cardiac repair as key biomaterials with high efficiency. We comprehensively classified and discussed the advantages of using conductive biomaterials in cardiac tissue engineering. An overall review of the open literature on electroactive substrates including carbon-based biomaterials over the last decade was provided, tabulated, and thoroughly discussed. The most commonly used conductive substrates comprising graphene, graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, and carbon nanofibers in cardiac repair were studied.

Abstract
The development of an optical system for combinatorial theranostics is of significant interest. Clinical translation of such theranostic agents need to cross several barriers. Herein, we have developed a facile method for the preparation of J-aggregates using FDA approved agents, namely, NIR fluorophore indocyanine green (ICG) and a chemotherapeutic drug, cisplatin (CDDP), which induces ICG to form indocyanine green J-aggregates (IJAs). The formation of IJAs has been characterized by the formation of a new absorption peak centered at ∼896 nm. The existing methods to synthesize IJAs have used several harsh reaction conditions, such as elevated temperatures, for a prolonged time duration (∼60 days). To the best of our knowledge, for the first time, we have reported the formation of IJAs assisted by CDDP at 37 °C temperature within 12 h. The presence of CDDP in ICG favors IJA formation and thereby reduces the harshness of the reaction conditions in the conventionally followed protocols. Moreover, the presence of CDDP can facilitate photoactivated combinatorial therapy. The as synthesized IJA optical system has superior properties to those of free ICG, in terms of diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities (being activatable at ∼896 nm wavelength, which can achieve deeper tissue penetration) and excellent optical and storage stability. The facile synthesis proposed along with CDDP incorporation makes the optical system a clinically relevant one-component theranostic agent.

Abstract
Conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy are nonselective and nonspecific for cell killing, causing serious side effects and threatening the lives of patients. It is of great significance to develop more accurate tumor-targeting therapeutic strategies. Nanotechnology is in a leading position to provide new treatment options for cancer, and it has great potential for selective targeted therapy and controlled drug release. 2D nanomaterials (2D NMs) have broad application prospects in the field of tumor-targeted delivery systems due to their special structure-based functions and excellent optical, electrical, and thermal properties. This review emphasizes the design strategies of tumor-targeted delivery systems based on 2D NMs from three aspects: passive targeting, active targeting, and tumor-microenvironment targeting, in order to promote the rational application of 2D NMs in clinical practice.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) has attracted much attention in the past few years because of its interesting and promising electrical, thermal, mechanical, and structural properties. These properties can be altered, as GO can be readily functionalized. Brodie synthesized the GO in 1859 by reacting graphite with KClO3 in the presence of fuming HNO3; the reaction took 3-4 days to complete at 333 K. Since then, various schemes have been developed to reduce the reaction time, increase the yield, and minimize the release of toxic byproducts (NO2 and N2O4). The modified Hummers method has been widely accepted to produce GO in bulk. Due to its versatile characteristics, GO has a wide range of applications in different fields like tissue engineering, photocatalysis, catalysis, and biomedical applications. Its porous structure is considered appropriate for tissue and organ regeneration. Various branches of tissue engineering are being extensively explored, such as bone, neural, dentistry, cartilage, and skin tissue engineering. The band gap of GO can be easily tuned, and therefore it has a wide range of photocatalytic applications as well: the degradation of organic contaminants, hydrogen generation, and CO2 reduction, etc. GO could be a potential nanocarrier in drug delivery systems, gene delivery, biological sensing, and antibacterial nanocomposites due to its large surface area and high density, as it is highly functionalized with oxygen-containing functional groups. GO or its composites are found to be toxic to various biological species and as also discussed in this review. It has been observed that superoxide dismutase (SOD) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels gradually increase over a period after GO is introduced in the biological systems. Hence, GO at specific concentrations is toxic for various species like earthworms, Chironomus riparius, Zebrafish, etc.

Abstract
Leukemia often initiates following dysfunctions in hematopoietic stem cells lineages. Various types of leukemia, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), and human T-cell leukemia/lymphoma virus type 1 (HTLV-1) can thus call for different diagnosis and treatment options. One of the most important subjects in leukemia is the early detection of the disease for effective therapeutic purposes. In this respect, biosensors detecting the molecules of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) as analytes are called genosensors or DNA biosensors. Electrochemical sensors, as the most significant approach, also involve reacting of chemical solutions with sensors to generate electrical signals proportional to analyte concentrations. Biosensors can further help detect cancer cells in the early stages of the disease. Moreover, electrochemical biosensors, developed based on various nanomaterials (NMs), can increase sensitivity to the detection of leukemia-related genes, e.g., BCR/ABL as a fusion gene and promyelocytic leukemia/retinoic acid receptor alpha (PML/RARα). Therefore, the present review reflects on previous studies recruiting different NMs for leukemia detection.

Abstract
Chitosan is a natural polymer with acceptable biocompatibility, biodegradability, and mechanical stability; hence, it has been widely appraised for drug and gene delivery applications. However, there has been no comprehensive assessment to tailor-make chitosan cross-linkers of various types and functionalities as well as complex chitosan-based semi- and full-interpenetrating networks for drug delivery systems (DDSs). Herein, various fabrication methods developed for chitosan hydrogels are deliberated, including chitosan crosslinking with and without diverse cross-linkers. Tripolyphosphate, genipin and multi-functional aldehydes, carboxylic acids, and epoxides are common cross-linkers used in developing biomedical chitosan for DDSs. Methods deployed for modifying the properties and performance of chitosan hydrogels, via their composite production (semi- and full-interpenetrating networks), are also cogitated here. In addition, recent advances in the fabrication of advanced chitosan hydrogels for drug delivery applications such as oral drug delivery, transdermal drug delivery, and cancer therapy are discussed. Lastly, thoughts on what is needed for the chitosan field to continue to grow is also debated in this comprehensive review article.

Abstract
Aggressive glioblastoma (GBM) has no known treatment as a primary brain tumor. Since the cancer is so heterogeneous, an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) exists, and the blood–brain barrier (BBB) prevents chemotherapeutic chemicals from reaching the central nervous system (CNS), therapeutic success for GBM has been restricted. Drug delivery based on nanocarriers and nanotechnology has the potential to be a handy tool in the continuing effort to combat the challenges of treating GBM. There are various new therapies being tested to extend survival time. Maximizing therapeutic effectiveness necessitates using many treatment modalities at once. In the fight against GBM, combination treatments outperform individual ones. Combination therapies may be enhanced by using nanotechnology-based delivery techniques. Nano-chemotherapy, nano-chemotherapy–radiation, nano-chemotherapy–phototherapy, and nano-chemotherapy–immunotherapy for GBM are the focus of the current review to shed light on the current status of innovative designs.

NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:2645. [PMID: 35957076 PMCID: PMC9370342 DOI: 10.3390/nano12152645] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2022] [Revised: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 07/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022]
Abstract
Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) are effective photothermal therapy (PTT) agents: they absorb near-infrared radiation and reemit it as heat via phonon-phonon relaxations that, in the presence of tumors, can induce thermal and immunogenic cell death. However, in the context of central nervous system (CNS) tumors, the off-target effects of PTT have the potential to result in injury to healthy CNS tissue. Motivated by this need for targeted PTT agents for CNS tumors, we present a PBNP formulation that targets fibroblast growth factor-inducible 14 (Fn14)-expressing glioblastoma cell lines. We conjugated an antibody targeting Fn14, a receptor abundantly expressed on many glioblastomas but near absent on healthy CNS tissue, to PBNPs (aFn14-PBNPs). We measured the attachment efficiency of aFn14 onto PBNPs, the size and stability of aFn14-PBNPs, and the ability of aFn14-PBNPs to induce thermal and immunogenic cell death and target and treat glioblastoma tumor cells in vitro. aFn14 remained stably conjugated to the PBNPs for at least 21 days. Further, PTT with aFn14-PBNPs induced thermal and immunogenic cell death in glioblastoma tumor cells. However, in a targeted treatment assay, PTT was only effective in killing glioblastoma tumor cells when using aFn14-PBNPs, not when using PBNPs alone. Our methodology is novel in its targeting moiety, tumor application, and combination with PTT. To the best of our knowledge, PBNPs have not been investigated as a targeted PTT agent in glioblastoma via conjugation to aFn14. Our results demonstrate a novel and effective method for delivering targeted PTT to aFn14-expressing tumor cells via aFn14 conjugation to PBNPs.

Abstract
Phototherapy has recently emerged as a promising solution for cancer treatment due to its multifunctionality and minimal invasiveness. Notwithstanding the limited penetration depth of light through skin, the ability of photopharmaceutical device systems to deliver light to desired lesions is important. The device system deploys advanced biocompatible materials and fabrication technologies for electronics, and eventually enables more efficient phototherapy. In this review, we focus on diverse optical electronics to illuminate the lesion site with light. Then, moving on to the phototherapy, we highlight photo-thermal therapy with light absorbing materials, photo-activated chemotherapy with light sensitive materials, and photo-dynamic therapy using photosensitizers. Furthermore, we introduce a drug delivery system that can deliver these photopharmaceutical agents spatiotemporally to the tumor site. To this end, we provide a general overview of materials and devices for phototherapy and discuss critical issues and pending limitations of such phototherapy.

Abstract
Carbon materials possess powerful antioxidant activity that might be promising for the development of new generation treatment of cardiovascular diseases, ischemic conditions, and reperfusion injury. The present study aimed to characterize the structure of nanosized graphene oxide (GrO) sample and evaluate the antioxidant efficacy of GrO in situ models of oxidative stress widely used in pre-clinical studies. The structure and surface chemistry of the initial samples were analyzed via LDS, RAMAN, LDI, TPD-MS, and FTIR methods. The GrO showed a strong ability to scavenge DPPH, hydroxyl, and superoxide anion free radicals and have a total antioxidant capacity. The DFT quantum-chemical calculation demonstrated the radical scavenging effect of GrO proceeding due to the physical adsorption of the free radical on the surface. For evaluation of the antioxidant effect of GrO in situ, we used the model of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) of Langendorff isolated rat heart. We revealed that intravenous pretreatment of Wistar male rats with GrO significantly increased resistance of myocardium to I/R, improved restoration of heart function, prevented non-effective oxygen utilization, and I/R induced reactive oxygen species production in cardiac tissue. Thus, our data demonstrate the perspective of further use of GrO for the development of antiischemic therapy.

Abstract
![]()
In recent years,
the toxicity of graphene-related materials (GRMs)
has been evaluated in diverse models to guarantee their safety. In
most applications, sublethal doses of GRMs contact human barriers
such as skin in a subchronic way. Herein, the subchronic effect (30
day exposure) of three GRMs (GO 1, GO 2, and FLG) with different oxidation
degrees and sizes was studied. The effects of these materials on human
skin cells, HaCaTs, were assayed through high-throughput metabolic-based
readout and other cell-based assays. A differential effect was found
between the different GRMs. GO 2 induced a metabolic remodeling in
epithelial cells, increasing the level of tricarboxylic acid components,
mirrored by increased cell proliferation and changes in cell phenotype.
The oxidation degree, size, and method of manufacture of GRMs dictated
harmful effects on cell metabolism and behavior generated by nontoxic
exposures. Therefore, a “safe by design” procedure is
necessary when working with these nanomaterials.

Abstract
Accumulated data indicated that many types of cancers have increased protein O-GlcNAcylation at cell surface and inside cells. The aberrant O-GlcNAcylation is considered a potential therapeutic target. Although several types of compounds capable of inhibiting O-GlcNAcylation have been developed, their low solubility, poor permeability and delivery efficiency have impeded the application for in vivo and pre-clinical studies. Nanocarriers have the advantages of controllable drug release and active cancer-targeting capability. Moreover, nanoparticles can improve drug delivery efficiency and reduce the non-specific distribution in normal tissues by the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect in cancer. Taking the advantage of O-GlcNAc-specific antibodies or lectins, nanoparticles could further improve their cancer-targeting capability. Although nanocarriers targeting the canonical N- and O-linked glycosylation have been extensively investigated for cancer detection and therapy, application of nanotechniques for the specific targeting of O-GlcNAcylation has not been actively pursued. This review summarizes the general features of GlcNAcylation and its alterations in cancers. Analyses are focused on the following areas: How the nanocarriers may improve the solubility and/or cell permeability of O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) inhibitors; The modification of nanocarriers with lectins or antibodies for active targeting of O-GlcNAc; The nanocarriers-mediated co-delivery of OGT inhibitors and conventional drugs, which may lead to synergistic effects. Unsolved issues impeding the research progression on O-GlcNAcylation-targeting scheme are also discussed.

Abstract
Chemotherapeutics that can trigger immunogenic cell death (ICD) and release tumor-specific antigens are effective on treating a variety of cancers. The codelivery of chemotherapeutics with adjuvants is a promising strategy to achieve synergistic therapeutic effect. However, low drug loading and complicated preparation of current delivery systems lead to carrier-associated toxicity and immunogenicity. Herein, we developed a facile approach to construct liposomal spherical nucleic acids (SNA) by the self-assembly of 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DOPE)-doxorubicin conjugate and DOPE-matrix metalloproteinases-9 (MMP-9) responsive peptide-CpG conjugate (DOPE-MMP-CpG). Liposomal SNAs efficiently co-delivered DOX and CpG into tumors and released the two drugs upon biological stimuli of MMP-9 enzyme in tumor microenvironment (TME) and high concentration of endogenous glutathione in tumor cells. We demonstrated that liposomal SNA enhanced activation of dendritic cells (DCs), promoted expansion of CD8+ and CD4+ T cells in both tumors and spleen, inhibited tumor growth, and extended animal survival. This work provided a simple strategy of delivering chemotherapeutics and adjuvants to tumors with synergistic therapeutic effect and reduced side effect.

Abstract
This paper presents a multiphysical numerical study of a photothermal therapy performed on a numerical phantom of a mouse head containing a glioblastoma. The study has been designed to be as realistic as possible. Heat diffusion simulations were performed on the phantom to understand the temperature evolution in the mouse head and therefore in the glioblastoma. The thermal dose has been calculated and lesions caused by heat are shown. The thermal damage on the tumor has also been quantified. To improve the effectiveness of the therapy, the photoabsorber's concentration was increased locally, at the tumor site, to mimic the effect of using absorbing contrast agents such as nanoparticles. Photoacoustic simulations were performed in order to monitor temperature in the phantom: as the Grüneisen parameter changes with the temperature, the photoacoustic signal undergoes changes that can be linked to temperature evolution. These photoacoustic simulations were performed at different instants during the therapy and the evolution of the photoacoustic signal as a function of the spatio-temporal distribution of the temperature in the phantom was observed and quantified. We have developed in this paper a numerical tool that can be used to help defining key parameters of a photothermal therapy.
