Abstract
Water splitting is promising, especially for energy and environmental applications; however, there are limited studies on the link between water splitting and cancer treatment. Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) can be used to convert near-infrared (NIR) light to ultraviolet (UV) or visible (Vis) light and have great potential for biomedical applications because of their profound penetration ability, theranostic approaches, low self-fluorescence background, reduced damage to biological tissue, and low toxicity. UCNPs with photocatalytic materials can enhance the photocatalytic activities that generate a shorter wavelength to increase the tissue penetration depth in the biological microenvironment under NIR light irradiation. Moreover, UCNPs with a photosensitizer can absorb NIR light and convert it into UV/vis light and emit upconverted photons, which excite the photoinitiator to create H2, O2, and/or OH˙ via water splitting processes when exposed to NIR irradiation. Therefore, combining UCNPs with intensified photocatalytic and photoinitiator materials may be a promising therapeutic approach for cancer treatment. This review provides a novel strategy for explaining the principles and mechanisms of UCNPs and NIR-driven UCNPs with photocatalytic materials through water splitting to achieve therapeutic outcomes for clinical applications. Moreover, the challenges and future perspectives of UCNP-based photocatalytic materials for water splitting for cancer treatment are discussed in this review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared II theranostic agents have gained great momentum in the research field of AD owing to the appealing advantages. Recently, an array of activatable NIR-II fluorescence probes has been developed to specifically monitor pathological targets of AD. Furthermore, various NIR-II-mediated nanomaterials with desirable photothermal and photodynamic properties have demonstrated favorable outcomes in the management of AD. METHODS We summerized amounts of references and focused on small-molecule probes, nanomaterials, photothermal therapy, and photodynamic therapy based on NIR-II fluorescent imaging for the diagnosis and treatment in AD. In addition, design strategies for NIR-II-triggered theranostics targeting AD are presented, and some prospects are also addressed. RESULTS NIR-II theranostic agents including small molecular probes and nanoparticles have received the increasing attention for biomedical applications. Meanwhile, most of the theranostic agents exhibited the promising results in animal studies. To our surprise, the multifunctional nanoplatforms also show a great potential in the diagnosis and treatment of AD. CONCLUSIONS Although NIR-II theranostic agents showed the great potential in diagnosis and treatment of AD, there are still many challenges: 1) Faborable NIR-II fluorohpores are still lacking; 2) Biocompatibility, bioseurity and dosage of NIR-II theranostic agents should be further revealed; 3) New equipment and software associated with NIR-II imaging system should be explored.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), referring to a gradual deterioration in cognitive function, including memory loss and impaired thinking skills, has emerged as a substantial worldwide challenge with profound social and economic implications. As the prevalence of AD continues to rise and the population ages, there is an imperative demand for innovative imaging techniques to help improve our understanding of these complex conditions. Photoacoustic (PA) imaging forms a hybrid imaging modality by integrating the high-contrast of optical imaging and deep-penetration of ultrasound imaging. PA imaging enables the visualization and characterization of tissue structures and multifunctional information at high resolution and, has demonstrated promising preliminary results in the study and diagnosis of AD. This review endeavors to offer a thorough overview of the current applications and potential of PA imaging on AD diagnosis and treatment. Firstly, the structural, functional, molecular parameter changes associated with AD-related brain imaging captured by PA imaging will be summarized, shaping the diagnostic standpoint of this review. Then, the therapeutic methods aimed at AD is discussed further. Lastly, the potential solutions and clinical applications to expand the extent of PA imaging into deeper AD scenarios is proposed. While certain aspects might not be fully covered, this mini-review provides valuable insights into AD diagnosis and treatment through the utilization of innovative tissue photothermal effects. We hope that it will spark further exploration in this field, fostering improved and earlier theranostics for AD.

Abstract
Photoporation techniques based on plasmonic nanoparticles such as gold nanoparticles have been extensively studied for the intracellular delivery of substances via cell membrane disruption. However, the clinical application of AuNP is challenging due to its absorption in the 500 nm region of the light spectrum. To overcome this challenge, upconversion nanoparticles were employed to stimulate AuNP at NIR wavelengths. posAuNP@UCNPs nanocomposites were produced by coating 30 nm UCNPs on 80 nm AuNPs using DOPA-PEI, which were then irradiated with 980 nm NIR light to facilitate their intracellular delivery. TEM and DLS confirmed that posAuNP and UCNP combine to form nanocomposites. Additionally, multiphysics simulation was used to analyze the distribution of the posAuNP electric field based on morphological differences that change as the UCNP ratio increases. Next, effective LED irradiation conditions were established by applying upconverting-photon quenching-mediated perforation influx to C28/I2 cells as suspensions or spheroids. posAuNP@UCNP nanocomposites were confirmed to be effective for the delivery of baricitinib as a treatment for osteoarthritis in a three-dimensional osteoarthritis model. Finally, chondrocyte differentiation was induced through intracellular delivery of baricitinib using posAuNP@UCNPs. The findings suggest that posAuNP@UCNPs have great potential as a tool for non-invasive drug delivery via UCPPin.

Abstract
Excessive accumulations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and amyloid-β (Aβ) protein are closely associated with the complex pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Therefore, approaches that synergistically exert elimination of ROS and dissociation of Aβ fibrils are effective therapeutic strategies for correcting the AD microenvironment. Herein, a novel near infrared (NIR) responsive Prussian blue-based nanomaterial (PBK NPs) is established with excellent antioxidant activity and photothermal effect. PBK NPs possess similar activities to multiple antioxidant enzymes, including superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, and catalase, which can eliminate massive ROS and relieve oxidative stress. Under the NIR irradiation, PBK NPs can generate local heat to disaggregate Aβ fibrils efficiently. By modifying CKLVFFAED peptide, PBK NPs display obvious targeting ability for blood-brain barrier penetration and Aβ binding. Furthermore, in vivo studies demonstrate that PBK NPs have outstanding ability to decompose Aβ plaques and alleviate neuroinflammation in AD mouse model. Overall, PBK NPs provide evident neuroprotection by reducing ROS levels and regulating Aβ deposition, and may accelerate the development of multifunctional nanomaterials for delaying the progression of AD.

Abstract
In recent years, tremendous progress has been made in the development of nanomedicines for advanced therapeutics, yet their unsatisfactory targeting ability hinders the further application of nanomedicines. Nanomaterials undergo a series of processes, from intravenous injection to precise delivery at target sites. Each process faces different or even contradictory requirements for nanoparticles to pass through biological barriers. To overcome biological barriers, researchers have been developing nanomedicines with transformable physicochemical properties in recent years. Physicochemical transformability enables nanomedicines to responsively switch their physicochemical properties, including size, shape, surface charge, etc., thus enabling them to cross a series of biological barriers and achieve maximum delivery efficiency. In this review, we summarize recent developments in nanomedicines with transformable physicochemical properties. First, the biological dilemmas faced by nanomedicines are analyzed. Furthermore, the design and synthesis of nanomaterials with transformable physicochemical properties in terms of size, charge, and shape are summarized. Other switchable physicochemical parameters such as mobility, roughness and mechanical properties, which have been sought after most recently, are also discussed. Finally, the prospects and challenges for nanomedicines with transformable physicochemical properties are highlighted.

Abstract
Infectious disease viruses, such as foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), are highly contagious viruses that cause significant socioeconomic damage upon spreading. Developing an on-site diagnostic tool for early clinical detection and real-time surveillance of FMDV outbreaks is essential to prevent the further spread of the disease. However, early diagnosis of FMDV is still challenging due to the limited sensitivity and time-consuming manual result entry of commercial on-site tests for salivary samples. Here, we report a near-infrared (NIR) signal nanoprobe-based highly accurate detection and remote monitoring system toward FMDVs, which automates the analysis and reporting of diagnosis data. The NIR signal lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) was assembled with a nanoprobe with a stable emission intensity at 800 nm, minimizing the interference signal of opaque salivary samples. We investigated the clinical applicability of the NIR signal LFA at biosafety level 3 (BSL-3) laboratories using 147 opaque salivary samples. The NIR signal LFA achieved a 32-fold lower limit of detection (LOD) than a commercial LFA in detecting live FMDVs, including all isolates occurring in the Republic of Korea during 2010-2017. Our results showed that the NIR signal LFA successfully discriminated the FMDV-positive clinical salivary samples from healthy controls with a sensitivity of 96.9%, specificity of 100.0%, and AUC (area under the receiver operator characteristic curve) value of 0.999. Finally, we substantiated the real-time collection of diagnostic results using a customized portable NIR reader at nine different laboratories of government-certified quarantine institutions for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD).

Abstract
Much attention has been paid to oxidising amyloid-β peptides (Aβ) for inhibiting their aggregation using photosensitive materials. However, the low penetration of ultraviolet/visible light into biological tissues and low targeting properties of the materials hinder their application. Here, we constructed a novel platform for attenuating the neurotoxicity of Aβ through functional upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs@SiO2-ThS). UCNPs@SiO2-ThS can not only inhibit the aggregation of Aβ42 monomers, but also disassemble Aβ42 fibrils by its selective photooxidative capacity under the irradiation of near-infrared (NIR) light. Moreover, based on the enhancement of ThS fluorescence after attaching to Aβ42 fibrils, only Aβ42 fibrils exposed to both UCNPs@SiO2-ThS and light can be oxidized rather than other normal proteins. To further enhance Aβ-target photooxygenation, we introduced the Aβ-target peptide (KLVFF) on the surface. Compared to traditional chemotherapies and radiotherapies, this novel PDT strategy shows remarkably reduced side effects and improved targeting.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disease that brings about enormous economic pressure to families and society. Inhibiting abnormal aggregation of Aβ and accelerating the dissociation of aggregates is treated as an effective method to prevent and treat AD. Recently, nanomaterials have been applied in AD treatment due to their excellent physicochemical properties and drug activity.

Near-Infrared Photothermally Enhanced Photo-Oxygenation for Inhibition of Amyloid-β Aggregation Based on RVG-Conjugated Porphyrinic Metal-Organic Framework and Indocyanine Green Nanoplatform.

Abstract
Amyloid aggregation is associated with many neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). The current technologies using phototherapy for amyloid inhibition are usually photodynamic approaches based on evidence that reactive oxygen species can inhibit Aβ aggregation. Herein, we report a novel combinational photothermally assisted photo-oxygenation treatment based on a nano-platform of the brain-targeting peptide RVG conjugated with the 2D porphyrinic PCN-222 metal-organic framework and indocyanine green (PCN-222@ICG@RVG) with enhanced photo-inhibition in Alzheimer's Aβ aggregation. A photothermally assisted photo-oxygenation treatment based on PCN@ICG could largely enhance the photo-inhibition effect on Aβ42 aggregation and lead to much lower neurotoxicity upon near-infrared (NIR) irradiation at 808 nm compared with a single modality of photo-treatment in both cell-free and in vitro experiments. Generally, local photothermal heat increases the instability of Aβ aggregates and keeps Aβ in the status of monomers, which facilitates the photo-oxygenation process of generating oxidized Aβ monomers with low aggregation capability. In addition, combined with the brain-targeting peptide RVG, the PCN-222@ICG@RVG nanoprobe shows high permeability of the human blood-brain barrier (BBB) on a human brain-on-a-chip platform. The ex vivo study also demonstrates that NIR-activated PCN-222@ICG@RVG could efficiently dissemble Aβ plaques. Our work suggests that the combination of photothermal treatment with photo-oxygenation can synergistically enhance the inhibition of Aβ aggregation, which may boost NIR-based combinational phototherapy of AD in the future.

Abstract
Huntington's disease (HD) belongs to protein misfolding disorders associated with polyglutamine (polyQ)-rich mutant huntingtin (mHtt) protein inclusions. Currently, it is indicated that the aggregation of polyQ-rich mHtt participates in neuronal toxicity and dysfunction. Here, we designed and synthesized a polyglutamine-specific gold nanoparticle (AuNP) complex, which specifically targeted mHtt and alleviated its toxicity. The polyglutamine-specific AuNPs were prepared by decorating the surface of AuNPs with an amphiphilic peptide (JLD1) consisting of both polyglutamine-binding sequences and negatively charged sequences. By applying the polyQ aggregation model system, we demonstrated that AuNPs-JLD1 dissociated the fibrillary aggregates from the polyQ peptide and reduced its β-sheet content in a concentration-dependent manner. By further integrating polyethyleneimine (PEI) onto AuNPs-JLD1, we generated a complex (AuNPs-JLD1-PEI). We showed that this complex could penetrate cells, bind to cytosolic mHtt proteins, dissociate mHtt inclusions, reduce mHtt oligomers, and ameliorate mHtt-induced toxicity. AuNPs-JLD1-PEI was also able to be transported to the brain and improved the functional deterioration in the HD Drosophila larva model. Our results revealed the feasibility of combining AuNPs, JLD1s, and cell-penetrating polymers against mHtt protein aggregation and oligomerization, which hinted on the early therapeutic strategies against HD.

Abstract
Over the past decades, nano-drug delivery systems have shown great potential in improving tumor treatment. And the controllability and design flexibility of nanoparticles endow them a broad development space. The particle size is one of the most important factors affecting the potency of nano-drug delivery systems. Large-size (100–200 nm) nanoparticles are more conducive to long circulation and tumor retention, but have poor tumor penetration; small-size (<50 nm) nanoparticles can deeply penetrate tumor but are easily cleared. Most of the current fixed-size nanoparticles are difficult to balance the retention and penetration, while the proposal of size-adjustable nano-drug delivery systems offers a solution to this paradox. Many endogenous and exogenous stimuli, such as acidic pH, upregulated enzymes, temperature, light, catalysts, redox conditions, and reactive oxygen species, can trigger the in situ transformation of nanoparticles based on protonation, hydrolysis, click reaction, phase transition, photoisomerization, redox reaction, etc. In this review, we summarize the principles and applications of stimuli-responsive size-adjustable strategies, including size-enlargement strategies and size-shrinkage strategies. We also propose the challenges faced by size-adjustable nano-drug delivery systems, hoping to promote the development of this strategy.

Abstract
Phototherapy has emerged as a powerful approach for interrupting β-amyloid (Aβ) self-assembly. However, deeper tissue penetration and safer photosensitizers are urgent to be exploited for avoiding damaging nearby normal tissues and improving therapeutic effectiveness. A hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF)-based NIR-II photooxygenation catalyst is presented here to settle the abovementioned challenges. By encapsulating the pyridinium hemicyanine dye DSM with a large two-photon absorption (TPA) cross-section in NIR-II window into the porphyrin-based HOF, the resultant DSM@n-HOF-6 exhibits significant two-photon NIR-II-excited Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) to generate singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) for Aβ oxidation. Further, the target peptides of KLVFFAED (KD8) are covalently grafted on DSM@n-HOF-6 to enhance the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability and Aβ selectivity. The HOF-based photooxygenation catalyst shows an outstanding inhibitory effect of Aβ aggregation upon the NIR-II irradiation. Further in vivo studies demonstrate the obvious decrease of craniocerebral Aβ plaques and recovery of memory deficits in triple-transgenic AD (3×Tg-AD) model mice.

Abstract
The past decades have witnessed an increased incidence of neurological disorders (NDs) such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ischemic stroke, and epilepsy, which significantly lower patients' life quality and increase the economic and social burden. Recently, nanomedicines composed of imaging and/or therapeutic agents have been explored to diagnose and/or treat NDs due to their enhanced bioavailability, blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, and targeting capacity. Intriguingly, dynamic nanoassemblies self-assembled from functional nanoparticles to simultaneously interfere with multiple pathogenic substances and pathological changes, have been regarded as one of the foremost candidates to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic efficacy of NDs. To help readers better understand this emerging field, in this review, the pathogenic mechanism of different types of NDs is briefly introduced, then the functional nanoparticles used as building blocks in the construction of dynamic nanoassemblies for NDs theranostics are summarized. Furthermore, dynamic nanoassemblies that can actively cross the BBB to target brain lesions, sensitively and efficiently diagnose or treat NDs, and effectively promote neuroregeneration are highlighted. Finally, we conclude with our perspectives on the future development in this field.

Abstract
It is well established that the polymerization of amyloid-β peptides into fibrils/plaques is a critical step during the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Phototherapy, which includes photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy, is a highly attractive strategy in AD treatment due to its merits of operational flexibility, noninvasiveness, and high spatiotemporal resolution. Distinct from traditional chemotherapies or immunotherapies, phototherapies capitalize on the interaction between photosensitizers or photothermal transduction agents and light to trigger photochemical reactions to generate either reactive oxygen species or heat effects to modulate Aβ aggregation, ultimately restoring nerve damage and ameliorating memory deficits. In this Review, we provide an overview of the recent advances in the development of near-infrared-activated nanoagents for AD phototherapies and discuss the potential challenges of and perspectives on this emerging field with a special focus on how to improve the efficiency and utility of such treatment. We hope that this Review will spur preclinical research and the clinical translation of AD treatment through phototherapy.

Abstract
Fabricating antibacterial hydrogels with antimicrobial drugs and synthetic biocompatible biomimetic hydrogels is a promising strategy for practical medical applications. Here, we report a bicomponent hydrogel composed of a biomimetic polyisocyanopetide (PIC) hydrogel and a photodynamic antibacterial membrane-intercalating conjugated oligoelectrolyte (COE). The aggregation behavior and aggregate size of the COEs in water can be regulated using the PIC hydrogel, which could induce COEs with higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) production efficiency and increased association of COEs toward bacteria, therefore enhancing the antibacterial efficiency. This strategy provides a facile method for developing biomimetic hydrogels with high antibacterial capability.

Abstract
Theranostics is a new trend integrating diagnostic and therapeutic functions in tumour research. Theranostic nanoparticles enabling both tumour imaging and drug delivery are a promising platform for image-guided cancer therapy. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has great potential in synergy with traditional chemotherapy but faces great challenges due to hypoxia, poor targeting ability and the limited penetration depth of visible light. To solve these problems, we presented a novel nanosystem of FA/UCNPs-RB/HCPT/PFH@lipid (denoted as FURH-PFH-NPs), with a perfluorohexane (PFH) carrying rich oxygen core and a folic acid-modified lipid shell. The shell contains 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) and self-fluorescing photosensitizer compounds, namely, upconversion nanoparticles and rose bengal (UCNPs-RB). In this study, FURH-PFH-NPs aggregated in SKOV3 cells (in vitro) and the nude xenograft tumour region when combined with folic acid receptors. When triggered by low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU), FURH-PFH-NPs released PFH, UCNPs-RB and HCPT. The above procedure was monitored through multimodal imaging, which simultaneously guided the tumour therapy. UCNPs-RB and PFH promoted the PDT effect under LIFU. Through PDT and HCPT, we obtained better therapeutic effects and good biosafety against SKOV3 nude xenograft tumours. FURH-PFH-NPs combined with LIFU and laser irradiation might be a promising strategy for ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Extracellular deposition of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide aggregates is a major characteristic of Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. Because Aβ peptide aggregates aggravate neuropathy and cognitive impairment for AD patients, numerous efforts have been devoted to suppressing Aβ self-assembly as a prospective AD treatment option. Here, we report Aβ-targeting, red-light-responsive carbon dots (CDs), and their therapeutic functions as a light-powered nanomodulator to spatiotemporally suppress toxic Aβ aggregation both in vitro and in vivo. Our aptamer-functionalized carbon dots (Apta@CDs) showed strong targeting ability toward Aβ42 species. Moreover, red LED irradiation induced Apta@CDs to irreversibly denature Aβ peptides, impeding the formation of β-sheet-rich Aβ aggregates and attenuating Aβ-associated cytotoxicity. Consequently, Apta@CDs-mediated photomodualtion modality achieved effective suppression of Aβ aggregation in vivo, which significantly reduced the Aβ burden at the targeted sites in the brain of 5xFAD mice by ∼40% and ∼25% according to imaging and ELISA analyses, respectively. Our work demonstrates the therapeutic potential of photomodulating CDs for light-driven suppression against Aβ self-assembly and related neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Photo-oxygenation of β-amyloid (Aβ) has been considered an efficient way to inhibit Aβ aggregation in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, current photosensitizers cannot simultaneously achieve enhanced blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability and selective photooxygenation of Aβ, leading to poor therapeutic efficacy, severe off-target toxicity, and substandard bioavailability. Herein, an Aβ target-driven supramolecular self-assembly (PKNPs) with enhanced BBB penetrability and switchable photoactivity is designed and demonstrated to be effective in preventing Aβ aggregation in vivo. PKNPs are prepared by the self-assembly of the Aβ-targeting peptide KLVFF and an FDA-approved porphyrin derivative (5-(4-carboxyphenyl)-10,15,20-triphenylporphyrin). Due to the photothermal effect of PKNPs, the BBB permeability of PKNPs under irradiation is 8.5-fold higher than that of porphyrin alone. Moreover, upon selective interaction with Aβ, PKNPs undergo morphological change from the spherical to the amorphous form, resulting in a smart transformation from photothermal activity to photodynamic activity. Consequently, the disassembled PKNPs can selectively oxygenate Aβ without affecting off-target proteins (insulin, bovine serum albumin, and human serum albumin). The well-designed PKNPs exhibit not only improved BBB permeability but also highly selective Aβ photooxygenation. Furthermore, in vivo experiments demonstrate that PKNPs can alleviate Aβ-induced neurotoxicity and prolong the life span of the commonly used AD transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans CL2006. Our work may open a new path for using supramolecular self-assemblies as switchable phototheranostics for the selective and effective prevention of Aβ aggregation and related neurotoxicity in AD.

Abstract
Phototherapy, such as photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy, holds great potential for modulation of Alzheimer's β-amyloid (Aβ) self-assembly. Unfortunately, current works for phototherapy of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are just employing either visible or first near-infrared (NIR-I) light with limited tissue penetration, which can not avoid damaging nearby normal tissues of AD patients through the dense skull and scalp. To overcome the shortcomings of AD phototherapy, herein we report an amyloid targeting, N-doped three-dimensional mesoporous carbon nanosphere (KD8@N-MCNs) as a second near-infrared (NIR-II) PTT agent. This makes it possible for photothermal dissociation of Aβ aggregates through the scalp and skull in a NIR-II window without hurting nearby normal tissues. Besides, KD8@N-MCNs have both superoxide dismutase and catalase activities, which can scavenge intracellular superfluous reactive oxygen species and alleviate neuroinflammation in vivo. Furthermore, KD8@N-MCNs efficiently cross the blood-brain barrier owing to the covalently grafted target peptides of KLVFFAED on the nanosphere surface. In vivo studies demonstrate that KD8@N-MCNs decrease Aβ deposits, ameliorate memory deficits, and alleviate neuroinflammation in the 3xTg-AD mouse model. Our work provides a biocompatible and non-invasive way to attenuate AD-associated pathology.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) have become a public health problem. Progressive cerebral accumulation of amyloid protein (Aβ) was widely considered as the cause of AD. One promising strategy for AD preclinical study is to degrade and clear the deposited amyloid aggregates with β-sheet-rich secondary structure in the brain. Based on the requirement, photo-active materials with the specific excitation and the standardization of the photosensitizer preparation and application in clinics, have attracted increased attention in the study and treatment of neurodegenerative disease as a novel method termed as photodynamic therapy (PDT). This review will focus on the new photosensitizing materials and discuss the trend of PDT techniques for the possible application in the treatment strategy of amyloid-related diseases.

Abstract
Various cancer therapies have been developed, but tumor recurrence with incomplete tumor killing and remaining tumor cells/tissues is frequent in monotherapies. Herein, a nano-bio therapeutic emulsion formulated with multifunctional nanoscintillators and anaerobic Clostridium novyi-NT spores for synergistic image-guided combinational cancer therapy is reported. MRI visible nanoscintillators (NSs) are synthesized with a NaGdF4 :Tb,Ce@NaGdF4 core/shell structure for an image-guided X-ray photodynamic therapy (PDT) of the normoxic peripheral tumor. An anaerobic oncolytic bacterium (C. novyi-NT) therapy is combined to treat the hypoxic central tumor tissues. Photosensitizer-coated NSs (PS-NSs) and C. novyi-NT spores are emulsified with clinically available ethiodized oil (Lipiodol) to be the nano-bio therapeutic emulsion and injected into the tumor with computed tomography image guidance. The distribution of nano-bio therapeutic emulsion, including PS-NSs and anaerobic C. novyi-NT spores in the tumor site, is confirmed by both X-ray and T1 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging. Following the image-guided X-ray PDT and anaerobic C. novyi- NT combination treatment, apoptotic cell death in cancer tissues, including both peripheral and central tumor regions, is significantly higher than in the control groups. This combination therapy approach using a nano-bio therapeutic emulsion is expected to overcome the limitations of conventional cancer therapy, resulting in increased cancer-therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
As a class of carbon-based nanomaterials, carbon dots (CDs) have attracted enormous attention because of their tunable optical and physicochemical properties, such as absorptivity and photoluminescence from ultraviolet to near-infrared, high photostability, biocompatibility, and aqueous dispersity. These characteristics make CDs a promising alternative photonic nanoagent to conventional fluorophores in disease diagnosis, treatment, and healthcare managements. This review describes the fundamental photophysical properties of CDs and highlights their recent applications to bioimaging, photomedicine (e.g., photodynamic/photothermal therapies), biosensors, and healthcare devices. We discuss current challenges and future prospects of photonic CDs to give an insight into developing vibrant fields of CD-based biomedicine and healthcare.

Abstract
The abnormal accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregates in the brain is a major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. We report a near-infrared (NIR)-active CuBi2O4-based photocathodic platform that can target intact Aβ aggregates and dissociate them into nontoxic species. Because of its relatively narrow band gap, CuBi2O4 exhibits strong absorption of NIR light, which allows for deeper tissue penetration and causes less photodamage to tissues compared to visible light. Furthermore, its high stability in aqueous media, biocompatibility, and robustness against photocorrosion make CuBi2O4 an ideal material for medical applications. For the targeted clearance of Aβ aggregates, we have conjugated the KLVFF peptide which specifically recognizes and captures Aβ aggregates on the surface of silver-doped CuBi2O4 (Ag:CuBi2O4). Upon illumination of NIR light under a cathodic bias, the KLVFF-immobilized Ag:CuBi2O4 (KLVFF-Ag:CuBi2O4) effectively dissociated β-sheet-rich, long, and entangled Aβ fibrillary aggregates into small fragmented, soluble species through photo-oxygenation. We also verified that the KLVFF-Ag:CuBi2O4 photocathode is biocompatible and effective in reducing Aβ aggregate-induced neurotoxicity. Our work demonstrates the potential of the KLVFF-Ag:CuBi2O4 platform for the targeted disassembly of cytotoxic, robust Aβ aggregates with the aid of NIR energy and cathodic bias.

Abstract
The delivery of drugs across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) effectively and safely is one of the major challenges in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. In this work, we constructed a nano-system using microbubbles to promote the crossing of drugs across the BBB, where microbubbles in combination with focused ultrasound were used to mediate the transient opening of the BBB and delivery of nanomedicines. This system (Qc@SNPs-MB) was formed by embedding quercetin-modified sulfur nanoparticles (Qc@SNPs) in microbubbles (MB). Qc@SNPs-MB was destroyed instantly when exposed to ultrasonic pulses, and it enhanced the permeability of the blood vessels, resulting in the brief opening of the BBB owing to the "sonoporation" effect. Also, Qc@SNPs were released from the outer shell of the microbubbles and entered the brain across the open BBB, accumulating in the brain parenchyma. Due to the rapid accumulation of Qc@SNPs in the brain, it effectively reduced neuronal apoptosis, inflammatory response, calcium homeostasis imbalance, and oxidative stress, which are all mediated by endoplasmic reticulum stress, and protected nerve cells, thus treating Alzheimer's disease (AD) effectively. The Morris water maze experiment showed that the learning ability and memory ability of the AD mice treated with Qc@SNPs were significantly improved, and no obvious side effects were found. Therefore, Qc@SNPs-MB combined with ultrasound can provide an effective and safe drug delivery method for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and a promising strategy for endoplasmic reticulum stress therapy.

Abstract
Nanoparticles have been widely used in tumor targeted drug delivery, while the antitumor effects are not always satisfactory due to the limited penetration and retention. As we all know, there is a paradox that nanoparticles with large sizes tend to distribute around tumor blood vessels rather than penetrate into tumor parenchyma, while smaller sizes can penetrate deeply but with poor tumor retention. In recent days, an intelligent, size-tunable strategy provided a solution to determine the size problem of nanoparticles and exhibited good application prospects. In this review, we summarize series of stimuli-induced aggregation and shrinkage strategies for tumor targeted drug delivery, which can significantly increase the retention and penetration of nanodrugs in tumor sites at the same time, thus promoting treatment efficacy. Internal (enzymes, pH, and redox) and external (light and temperature) stimuli are introduced to change the morphology of the original nanodrugs through protonation, hydrophobization, hydrogen bond, π-π stacking and enzymolysis-resulted click reactions or dissociation, etc. Apart from applications in oncotherapy, size-tunable strategies also have a great prospect in the diagnosis and real time bioimaging fields, which are also introduced in this review. Finally, the potential challenges for application and future directions are thoroughly discussed, providing guidance for further clinical transformation.

Abstract
We demonstrate amyloid fibril (AF) decomposition induced by NIR-active upconversion nanoparticles complexed with photosensitisers. The process is triggered by upconversion, which initiates a photochemical reaction cascade that culminates in the generation of the highly reactive singlet-oxygen product 1O2 close to the amyloid superstructures, resulting in AF decomposition.

Abstract
Optogenetics have evolved as a promising tool to control the processes at a cellular level via photons. Specially, it confers a specific control over cellular function through real-time cytomodulation even in freely moving animals. Neuronal stimulation is prerequisite for deep tissue light penetration or insertion of optrode for light illumination to the neurons that have been proven to be compromised due to poor light penetration and invasiveness of the procedure, respectively. In this review, the application of nanotechnology is being elaborated by the use of metal nanoparticles (AuNPs), upconversion nanocrystals (UCNPs), and quantum dots (CdSe) for targeting particular organs or tissues, and their potential to emit a specific light on excitation to overcome the limitations associated with earlier methods has been elucidated. The optothermal and magnetothermal properties, photoluminescence, and higher photostability of nanomaterials are explored in context of therapeutic applicability of optogenetics. The nanostructure characteristics and specific ion channel targeting have shown promising therapeutic potential against neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's), epilepsy, and blindness. This review compiles mechanical and optical characteristics of nanomaterials that endow superior optogenetic therapeutic potentials to cure immedicable infirmities.

Abstract
The inhibition of amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation by photo-oxygenation has become an effective way of treating Alzheimer's disease (AD). New near-infrared (NIR) activated treatment agents, which not only possess high photo-oxygenation efficiency, but also show low biotoxicity, are urgently needed. Herein, for the first time, it is demonstrated that NIR activated black phosphorus (BP) could serve as an effective nontoxic photo-oxidant for amyloid-β peptide in vitro and in vivo. The nanoplatform BP@BTA (BTA: one of thioflavin-T derivatives) possesses high affinity to the Aβ peptide due to specific amyloid selectivity of BTA. Importantly, under NIR light, BP@BTA can significantly generate a high quantum yield of singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) to oxygenate Aβ, thereby resulting in inhibiting the aggregation and attenuating Aβ-induced cytotoxicity. In addition, BP could finally degrade into nontoxic phosphate, which guarantees the biosafety. Using transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans CL2006 as AD model, the results demonstrate that the 1 O2 -generation system could dramatically promote life-span extension of CL2006 strain by decreasing the neurotoxicity of Aβ.

Abstract
Herein, we report a siloxane-encapsulated upconversion nanoparticle hybrid composite (SE-UCNP), which exhibits excellent photoluminescence (PL) stability for over 40 days even at an elevated temperature, in high humidity, and in harsh chemicals. The SE-UCNP is synthesized through UV-induced free-radical polymerization of a sol-gel-derived UCNP-containing oligosiloxane resin (UCNP-oligosiloxane). The siloxane matrix with a random network structure by Si-O-Si bonds successfully encapsulates the UCNPs with chemical linkages between the siloxane matrix and organic ligands on UCNPs. This encapsulation results in surface passivation retaining the intrinsic fluorescent properties of UCNPs under severe conditions (e.g., 85 °C/85% relative humidity) and a wide range of pH (from 1 to 14). As an application example, we fabricate a two-color binary microbarcode based on SE-UCNP via a low-cost transfer printing process. Under near-infrared irradiation, the binary sequences in our barcode are readable enough to identify objects using a mobile phone camera. The hybridization of UCNPs with a siloxane matrix provides the capacity for highly stable UCNP-based applications in real environments.

Abstract
The aberrant aggregation of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) in the brain has been considered as the major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's diseases (AD). Inhibition of Aβ aggregation is considered as an attractive therapeutic intervention for alleviating amyloid-associated neurotoxicity. Here, we report the near-infrared light (NIR)-induced suppression of Aβ aggregation and reduction of Aβ-induced cytotoxicity via porphyrinic metal-organic framework (MOF) PCN-224 nanoparticles. PCN-224 nanoparticles are hydrothermally synthesized by coordinating tetra-kis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) ligands with zirconium. The PCN-224 nanoparticles show high photo-oxygenation efficiency, good biocompatibility, and high stability. The study reveals that the porphyrinic MOF-based nanoprobe activated by NIR light could successfully inhibit self-assembly of monomeric Aβ into a β-sheet-rich structure. Furthermore, photoexcited PCN-224 nanoparticles also significantly reduce Aβ-induced cytotoxicity under NIR irradiation.

Abstract
C60 has a special dual function; it can act as both a powerful reactive oxygen species (ROS) producer under UV or visible light and an ROS scavenger in the dark. However, ROS has double-edged effects in living systems. It is still a great challenge for biomedical application to switch and adjust the two opposite properties of C60 in one system. Herein, UCNP@C60 -pep (UCNP: upconversion nanoparticle, pep: Aβ-target peptide KLVFF) is designed as a near-infrared-switchable nanoplatform for synergy therapy of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Under near-infrared (NIR) light, the Aβ-targeting hybrid nanoparticles produce ROS and result in Aβ photooxygenation, which can hinder Aβ aggregation and mitigate the attendant cytotoxicity. In the dark, UCNP@C60 -pep shows protective effects against the increased oxidative stress. The ROS-generating and ROS-quenching abilities of UCNP@C60 -pep are both beneficial for decreasing Aβ-induced neurotoxicity and extending the longevity of the commonly used transgenic AD model Caenorhabditis elegans CL2006. Moreover, UCNP@C60-pep can also be used for upconversion luminescence (UCL) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which has benefits for "image-guided therapy." This study may offer a new perspective for the biological applications of C60 .

Abstract
Yolk-shell nanostructures (YSNs) composed of a core within a hollow cavity surrounded by a porous outer shell have received tremendous research interest owing to their unique structural features, fascinating physicochemical properties, and widespread potential applications. Here, a comprehensive overview of the design, synthesis, and biomedical applications of YSNs is presented. The synthetic strategies toward YSNs are divided into four categories, including hard-templating, soft-templating, self-templating, and multimethod combination synthesis. For the hard- or soft-templating strategies, different types of rigid or vesicle templates are used for making YSNs. For the self-templating strategy, a number of unconventional synthetic methods without additional templates are introduced. For the multimethod combination strategy, various methods are applied together to produce YSNs that cannot be obtained directly by only a single method. The biomedical applications of YSNs including biosensing, bioimaging, drug/gene delivery, and cancer therapy are discussed in detail. Moreover, the potential superiority of YSNs for these applications is also highlighted. Finally, some perspectives on the future research and development of YSNs are provided.

Abstract
Polyphenol compounds, such as curcumin, rutin, rifampicin, can inhibit Aβ aggregation and decrease reactive oxygen species (ROS), and have received much attention in recent years for Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment. However, the excess metal ions in amyloid plaque can chelate to polyphenol compounds. It significantly declines the efficacy of polyphenol compounds when used in the clinic. In this report, a near-infrared (NIR)-caged upconversion responsive system UCNP@SiO2 @Cur/CQ is designed and synthesized to control drug sequential release by regulating NIR laser. When the system is irradiated at low intensity of the NIR laser, the caged metal chelator, clioquinol (CQ), is first released for removing free metal ions, which affects the efficacy of curcumin. Subsequently, the strongly caged curcumin is released with increasing the intensity of NIR light. In this way, the treatment efficacy of curcumin is improved. This NIR-caged drug release system can not only remove Cu2+ but also clean superfluous ROS. Therefore, developing controllable sequential drug releasing may provide clinical benefits of combination treatment of AD. To the best of our knowledge, this work reports for the first time that a sequentially controlled system can overcome the interference of metal ions on polyphenol compounds for AD treatment.
