Zhang X, Ma Y, Shi Y, Jiang L, Wang L, Ur Rashid H, Yuan M, Liu X. Advances in liposomes loaded with photoresponse materials for cancer therapy. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 174:116586. [PMID: 38626516 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.116586] [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: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Cancer treatment is presently a significant challenge in the medical domain, wherein the primary modalities of intervention include chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. However, these therapeutic modalities carry side effects. Photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) have emerged as promising modalities for the treatment of tumors in recent years. Phototherapy is a therapeutic approach that involves the exposure of materials to specific wavelengths of light, which can subsequently be converted into either heat or Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) to effectively eradicate cancer cells. Due to the hydrophobicity and lack of targeting of many photoresponsive materials, the use of nano-carriers for their transportation has been extensively explored. Among these nanocarriers, liposomes have been identified as an effective drug delivery system due to their controllability and availability in the biomedical field. By binding photoresponsive materials to liposomes, it is possible to reduce the cytotoxicity of the material and regulate drug release and accumulation at the tumor site. This article provides a comprehensive review of the progress made in cancer therapy using photoresponsive materials loaded onto liposomes. Additionally, the article discusses the potential synergistic treatment through the combination of phototherapy with chemo/immuno/gene therapy using liposomes.

Abstract
The corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties of fixed orthodontic devices are insufficient in the complex oral cavity, which delays tooth movement and causes enamel demineralization. To overcome the challenges, this research constructs a series of polydopamine-graphene oxide (PDA-GO) nanocoatings on representative NiTi archwires via self-assembly. The morphology, chemical structure, and multifunctional properties of coatings showed tunability dependent on the PDA/GO ratio. Optimized PDA-GO coatings with uniform and dense characteristics prolonged the diffusion path for the corrosive medium and reduced Ni dissolution in NiTi alloys. Meanwhile, the applied coatings endowed NiTi alloys with antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans due to the surface structures and inherent properties of PDA-GO. In vitro cytotoxicity tests further verified their good biocompatibility. This bio-inspired nanocomposite coating provides a practical reference for modification of dental metal surfaces to better behave in the intraoral environment.

Abstract
To improve storage stability and gastrointestinal (GI) stability of liposomes, pectin and chitosan double layer coated liposome (P-C-L) was proposed and optimized using electrostatic deposition technique. The physical-chemical properties and GI fate of the carrier were then investigated in comparison to that of chitosan coated liposomes (C-L) and un-coated liposomes (L). The results showed P-C-L was successfully prepared at 0.2 % chitosan and 0.06 % pectin. It was hydrogen bonds between the amino groups in chitosan and liposomal interfacial region, and the interaction between the carboxyl groups in pectin layer and amino groups in chitosan layer maintained the structure of P-C-L after absorption by electrostatic interaction. The double layer coatings could improve chemical stability of the encapsulated β-carotene (βC), as well as the thermal stability of liposomes. What's more, the permeability of liposomal bilayers and βC release mechanism in simulated GI fluids was changed by the polymer coating. P-C-L exhibited better controlled release for βC than C-L and L, and displayer beneficial effect on delivering bioactive agents passing through intensity tract. This may assistant developing more efficient delivery system for bioactive agent.

Abstract
The low distribution of hydrophobic anticancer drugs in patients is one of the biggest limitations during conventional chemotherapy. SDS-based polyelectrolyte multicore nanocarriers (NCs) prepared according to the layer by layer (LbL) procedure can release paclitaxel (PTX), and selectively kill cancer cells. Our main objective was to verify the antitumor properties of PTX-loaded NCs and to examine whether the drug encapsulated in these NCs retained its cytotoxic properties. The cytotoxicity of the prepared nanosystems was tested on MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 tumour cells and the non-cancerous HMEC-1 cell line in vitro. Confocal microscopy, spectrophotometry, spectrofluorimetry, flow cytometry, and RT PCR techniques were used to define the typical hallmarks of apoptosis. It was demonstrated that PTX encapsulated in the tested NCs exhibited similar cytotoxicity to the free drug, especially in the triple negative breast cancer model. Moreover, SDS/PLL/PTX and SDS/PLL/PGA/PTX significantly reduced DNA synthesis. In addition, PTX-loaded NCs triggered apoptosis and upregulated the transcription of Bax, AIF, cytochrome-c, and caspase-3 mRNA. Our data demonstrate that these novel polyelectrolyte multicore NCs coated with PLL or PLL/PGA are good candidates for delivering PTX. Our discoveries have prominent implications for the possible choice of newly synthesized, SDS-based polyelectrolyte multicore NCs in different anticancer therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Thin oxide layers form easily on the surfaces of titanium (Ti) components, with thicknesses of <100 nm. These layers have excellent corrosion resistance and good biocompatibility. Ti is susceptible to bacterial development on its surface when used as an implant material, which reduces the biocompatibility between the implant and the bone tissue, resulting in reduced osseointegration. In the present study, Ti specimens were surface-negatively ionized using a hot alkali activation method, after which polylysine and polydopamine layers were deposited on them using a layer-by-layer self-assembly method, then a quaternary ammonium salt (QAS) (EPTAC, DEQAS, MPA-N+) was grafted onto the surface of the coating. In all, 17 such composite coatings were prepared. Against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, the bacteriostatic rates of the coated specimens were 97.6 ± 2.0% and 98.4 ± 1.0%, respectively. Thus, this composite coating has the potential to increase the osseointegration and antibacterial performance of implantable Ti devices.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials such as graphene are increasingly used in research and industry for various biomedical applications. Extensive experimental and theoretical studies have revealed that 2D nanomaterials are promising drug delivery vehicles, yet certain materials exhibit toxicity under biological conditions. So far, it is known that 2D nanomaterials possess strong adsorption propensities for biomolecules. To mitigate potential toxicity and retain favorable physical and chemical properties of 2D nanomaterials, it is necessary to explore the underlying mechanisms of interactions between biomolecules and nanomaterials for the subsequent design of biocompatible 2D nanomaterials for nanomedicine. The purpose of this review is to integrate experimental findings with theoretical observations and facilitate the study of 2D nanomaterial interaction with biomolecules at the molecular level. We discuss the current understanding and progress of 2D nanomaterial interaction with proteins, lipid membranes, and DNA based on molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. In this review, we focus on the 2D graphene nanosheet and briefly discuss other 2D nanomaterials. With the ever-growing computing power, we can image nanoscale processes using MD simulation that are otherwise not observable in experiment. We expect that molecular characterization of the complex behavior between 2D nanomaterials and biomolecules will help fulfill the goal of designing effective 2D nanomaterials as drug delivery platforms.

Abstract
Specific targeting, selective stimuli-responsiveness, and controlled release of anticancer agents are requested for high therapeutic efficiency with a minimal adverse effect. Herein, we report the sophisticated synthesis and functionalization of fluorescent mesoporous silicon (FMPSi) nanoparticles decorated with graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets. GO-wrapped FMPSi (FMPSi@GO) was loaded with a cisplatin (Cis) anticancer agent, and Cis-loaded FMPSi@GO (FMPSi-Cis@GO) exhibited the dual stimuli (pH and NIR)-responsiveness of controlled drug release, i.e., the drug release rate was distinctly enhanced at acidic pH 5.5 than at neutral pH 7.0 and further enhanced under NIR irradiation at acidic pH condition. Notably, dequalinium-conjugated FMPSi-Cis@GO (FMPSi-Cis@GO@DQA) demonstrated an excellent specificity for mitochondrial targeting in cancer cells without noticeable toxicity to normal human cells. Our novel silicon nanocarriers demonstrated not only stimuli (pH and NIR)-responsive controlled drug release, but also selective accumulation in the mitochondria of cancer cells and destroying them.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The application of doxorubicin (DOX) in cancer therapy has been limited due to its drug resistance and poor internalization. Graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures have the capacity for DOX delivery while promoting its cytotoxicity in cancer. AREAS COVERED The favorable characteristics of GO nanocomposites, preparation method, and application in cancer therapy are described. Then, DOX resistance in cancer is discussed. The GO-mediated photothermal therapy and DOX delivery for cancer suppression are described. Preparation of stimuli-responsive GO nanocomposites, surface functionalization, hybrid nanoparticles, and theranostic applications are emphasized in DOX chemotherapy. EXPERT OPINION Graphene oxide nanoparticle-based photothermal therapy maximizes the anti-cancer activity of DOX against cancer cells. Apart from DOX delivery, GO nanomaterials are capable of loading anti-cancer agents and genetic tools to minimize drug resistance and enhance the cytolytic impact of DOX in cancer eradication. To enhance DOX accumulation in cancer cells, stimuli-responsive (redox-, light-, enzyme- and pH-sensitive) GO nanoparticles have been developed for DOX delivery. Further development of targeted delivery of DOX-loaded GO nanomaterials against cancer cells may be achieved by surface modification of polymers such as polyethylene glycol, hyaluronic acid, and chitosan. Doxorubicin-loaded GO nanoparticles have demonstrated theranostic potential for simultaneous diagnosis and therapy. Hybridization of GO with other nanocarriers such as silica and gold nanoparticles further broadens their potential anti-cancer therapy applications.

Abstract
Background Numerous drug delivery strategies have been studied, but many hurdles exist in drug delivery rates to the target site. Recently, researchers have attempted to remotely control the in vivo behavior of drugs with light to overcome the shortcomings of conventional drug delivery systems. Photodynamic and photothermal systems are representative strategies wherein a photosensitive material is activated in response to a specific wavelength of light. Area covered Photosensitive materials generally exhibit poor solubility and low biocompatibility. Additionally, their low photostability negatively affects delivery performance. A formulation of lipid-based nanoparticles containing photosensitive substances can help achieve photosensitive drug delivery with improved biocompatibility. The lipid bilayer structure, which can be assembled and disassembled by modulating the surrounding conditions (temperature, pH, etc.), can also be crucial for controlled release of drugs. Expert opinion To the best of our knowledge, translation research on photoresponsive nanoparticles is scarce. However, as various drugs based on lipid nanoparticles have been clinically approved, the development potential of the lipid-based photoresponsive nanoparticles seems high. Thus, the identification of valid indications and development of optimum medical devices will increase the interest in photoresponsive material-based nanoparticles.

Abstract
Liposomes are attractive carriers for targeted and controlled drug delivery receiving increasing attention in cancer photothermal therapy. However, the field of creating near-infrared nanomaterial-liposome hybrid nanocarriers (NIRN-Lips) is relatively little understood. The hybrid nanocarriers combine the dual superiority of nanomaterials and liposomes, with more stable particles, enhanced photoluminescence, higher tumor permeability, better tumor-targeted drug delivery, stimulus-responsive drug release, and thus exhibiting better anti-tumor efficacy. Herein, this review covers the liposomes supported various types of near-infrared nanomaterials, including gold-based nanomaterials, carbon-based nanomaterials, and semiconductor quantum dots. Specifically, the NIRN-Lips are described in terms of their feature, synthesis, and drug-release mechanism. The design considerations of NIRN-Lips are highlighted. Further, we briefly introduced the photothermal conversion mechanism of NIRNs and the cell death mechanism induced by photothermal therapy. Subsequently, we provided a brief conclusion of NIRNs-Lips applied in cancer photothermal therapy. Finally, we discussed a synopsis of associated challenges and future perspectives for the applications of NIRN-Lips in cancer photothermal therapy.

Abstract
In this study, a novel class of multifunctional responsive nanoparticles is designed and fabricated as drug nanocarriers for synergetic chemo-photothermal therapy of tumors. The proposed nanoparticles are composed of a thermo-/pH-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (PNA) nanogel core, a polydopamine (PDA) layer for photothermal conversion, and an outer folic acid (FA) layer as a targeting agent for the folate receptors on tumor cells. The fabricated nanoparticles show good biocompatibility and outstanding photothermal conversion efficiency. The proposed nanoparticles loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) drug molecules are stable under physiological conditions with low leakage of drugs, while rapidly release drugs in environments with low pH conditions and at high temperature. The experimental results show that the drug release process is mainly governed by Fickian diffusion. In vitro cell experimental results demonstrate that the PNA-DOX@PDA-FA nanoparticles can be phagocytized by 4T1 tumor cells and release drugs in tumor cell acidic environments, and confirm that the combined chemo and photothermal therapeutic efficacy of PNA-DOX@PDA-FA nanoparticles is higher than the photothermal therapeutic efficacy or the chemotherapeutic efficacy alone. The proposed multifunctional responsive nanoparticles in this study provide a novel class of drug nanocarriers as a promising tool for synergetic chemo-photothermal therapy of tumors.

Abstract
Lung cancer treatment using cisplatin (DDP) in combination with other drugs are effective for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this study was to prepare a layer-by-layer nanoparticles (NPs) for the co-loading of DDP and oridonin (ORI) and to evaluate the antitumor activity of the system in vitro and in vivo. Novel DDP and ORI co-loaded layer-by-layer NPs (D/O-NPs) were constructed. The mean diameter, surface change stability and drug release behavior of NPs were evaluated. In vitro cytotoxicity of D/O-NPs was investigated against DDP resistant human lung cancer cell line (A549/DDP cells), and in vivo anti-tumor efficiency of D/O-NPs was tested on mice bearing A549/DDP cells xenografts. D/O-NPs have a diameter of 139.6 ± 4.4 nm, a zeta potential value of +13.8 ± 1.6 mV. D/O-NPs could significantly enhance in vitro cell toxicity and in vivo antitumor effect against A549/DDP cells and lung cancer animal model compared to the single drug loaded NPs and free drugs. The results demonstrated that the D/O-NPs could be used as a promising lung cancer treatment system.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study is to characterize poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) composite microcarriers for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) delivery. To reduce the initial burst release and protect the bioactivity, VEGF is encapsulated in soybean l-α-phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and l-α-phosphatidylcholine (PC) anhydrous reverse micelle (VEGF-RM) nanoparticles. Also, mesoporous nano-hexagonal Mg(OH)2 nanostructure (MNS)-loaded PE/PC anhydrous reverse micelle (MNS-RM) nanoparticles are synthesized to suppress the induced inflammation of PLGA acidic byproducts and regulate the release profile. The flow-focusing microfluidic geometry platforms are used to fabricate different combinations of PLGA composite microspheres (PLGA-CMPs) with MNSs, MNS-RM, VEGF-RM, and native VEGF. The essential parameters of each formulation, such as release profiles, encapsulation efficacy, bioactivity, inflammatory response, and cytotoxicity, are investigated by in vitro and in vivo studies. The results indicate that generated acidic byproducts during the hydrolytic degradation process of PLGA can be buffered, and pH values inside and outside microspheres can remain steady during degradation by MNSs. Furthermore, the significant improvement in the stability of the encapsulated VEGF is confirmed by the bioactivity assay. In vitro release study shows that the VEGF initial burst release is well minimized in the present microcarriers. The present monodisperse PLGA-CMPs can be widely used in various tissue engineering and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Currently, the in situ on/off switch of PTT/PDT reagents for tumor treatment has evoked considerable interest in the field of cancer therapy. However, the actual PTT/PDT therapy efficacy in tumor treatment is largely restricted by the PTT/PDT reagents' aggregation issues during their release from the hydrophobic carrier to the hydrophilic tumor microenvironment. Thus, it remains a challenge to break through the therapy barrier caused by the PTT/PDT agent aggregation and achieve substantial improvement of anticancer efficacy. In this work, we developed a novel near-infrared (NIR) light-responsive and gas bubble-generated liposomal nanobomb (Cy/Ce6/CO2-Lip-FA) through the co-encapsulation of PTT/PDT reagents with gas precursor into the hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions of liposomes, respectively, in order to overcome the aggregation issues and substantially improve the synergistic PTT/PDT efficacy. Upon arrival at the tumor region, the PS phototoxicity of Cy/Ce6/CO2-Lip-FA could be effectively switched on through CO2 generation induced by the PTT effect of Cypate upon NIR irradiation. The gas bubble burst can remarkably suppress the aggregation of Cypate/Ce6 and extremely enhance the synergistic PTT/PDT efficacy. These results indicate that the proposed NIR-responsive and gas bubble-functionalized liposomal nanobomb is a highly promising platform for tumor treatment with better therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
The Layer-by-Layer (LbL) method is a well-established method for the assembly of nanomaterials with controlled structure and functionality through the alternate deposition onto a template of two mutual interacting molecules, e.g., polyelectrolytes bearing opposite charge. The current development of this methodology has allowed the fabrication of a broad range of systems by assembling different types of molecules onto substrates with different chemical nature, size, or shape, resulting in numerous applications for LbL systems. In particular, the use of soft colloidal nanosurfaces, including nanogels, vesicles, liposomes, micelles, and emulsion droplets as a template for the assembly of LbL materials has undergone a significant growth in recent years due to their potential impact on the design of platforms for the encapsulation and controlled release of active molecules. This review proposes an analysis of some of the current trends on the fabrication of LbL materials using soft colloidal nanosurfaces, including liposomes, emulsion droplets, or even cells, as templates. Furthermore, some fundamental aspects related to deposition methodologies commonly used for fabricating LbL materials on colloidal templates together with the most fundamental physicochemical aspects involved in the assembly of LbL materials will also be discussed.

Abstract
Nano-drug delivery systems (NDDS) are functional drug-loaded nanocarriers widely applied in cancer therapy. Recently, layer-by-layer (LbL) assembled NDDS have been demonstrated as one of the most promising platforms in delivery of anticancer therapeutics. Here, a brief review of the LbL assembled NDDS for cancer treatment is presented. The fundamentals of the LbL assembled NDDS are first interpreted with an emphasis on the formation mechanisms. Afterwards, the tailored encapsulation of anticancer therapeutics in LbL assembled NDDS are summarized. The state-of-art targeted delivery of LbL assembled NDDS, with special attention to the elaborately control over the passive and active targeting delivery, are represented. Then the controlled release of LbL assembled NDDS with various stimulus responsiveness are systematically reviewed. Finally, conclusions and perspectives on further advancing the LbL assembled NDDS toward more powerful and versatile platforms for cancer therapy are discussed.

Abstract
In order to enhance the targeting efficiency and reduce anti-tumor drug’s side effects, topotecan (TPT) and F7 were co-loaded in thermosensitive liposomes (F7-TPT-TSL), which show enhanced permeability and retention in tumors, as well as local controlled release by heating in vitro. TPT is a water-soluble inhibitor of topoisomerase I that is converted to an inactive carboxylate structure under physiological conditions (pH 7.4). F7 is a novel drug significantly resistant to cyclin-dependent kinase but its use was restricted by its high toxicity. F7-TPT-TSL had excellent particle distribution (about 103 nm), high entrapment efficiency (>95%), obvious thermosensitive property, and good stability. Confocal microscopy demonstrated specific higher accumulation of TSL in tumor cells. MTT proved F7-TPT-TSL/H had strongest cell lethality compared with other formulations. Then therapeutic efficacy revealed synergism of TPT and F7 co-loaded in TSL, together with hyperthermia. Therefore, the F7-TPT-TSL may serve as a promising system for temperature triggered cancer treatment.

Abstract
The epoch of nanotechnology has authorized novel investigation strategies in the area of drug delivery. Liposomes are attractive biomimetic nanocarriers characterized by their biocompatibility, high loading capacity, and their ability to reduce encapsulated drug toxicity. Nevertheless, various limitations including physical instability, lack of site specificity, and low targeting abilities have impeded the use of solo liposomes. Metal nanocarriers are emerging moieties that can enhance the therapeutic activity of many drugs with improved release and targeted potential, yet numerous barriers, such as colloidal instability, cellular toxicity, and poor cellular uptake, restrain their applicability in vivo. The empire of nanohybrid systems has shelled to overcome these curbs and to combine the criteria of liposomes and metal nanocarriers for successful theranostic delivery. Metallic moieties can be embedded or functionalized on the liposomal systems. The current review sheds light on different liposomal-metal nanohybrid systems that were designed as cellular bearers for therapeutic agents, delivering them to their targeted terminus to combat one of the most widely recognized diseases, cancer.

The APEX1/miRNA-27a-5p axis plays key roles in progression, metastasis and targeted chemotherapy of gastric cancer. Int J Pharm 2021; 599:120446. [PMID: 33675923 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2021.120446] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2020] [Revised: 02/10/2021] [Accepted: 02/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) presents a challenge for conventional therapeutics due to low targeting specificity and subsequent elicitation of multiple drug resistance (MDR). As an essential enzyme for DNA repair, apurinic/apyrimidinic endodeoxyribonuclease 1 (APEX1) exhibits multiple functions to affect cancer malignancy and is excessively expressed in GC. However, the roles APEX1 and its inhibitor miR-27a-5p play in modulating GC progression and MDR development remains unclear. Here, we verified APEX1 as a target of miR-27a-5p and subsequently established the APEX1-deleted SGC-7901 cell line by CRISPR/Cas9 editing. The roles of the APEX1/miR-27a-5p axis in GC progression, metastasis and doxorubicin (DOX) resistance were explored by the targeted chemotherapy facilitated by a GC-specific peptide (GP5) functionalized liposomal drug delivery formulation (GP5/Lipo/DOX/miR-27a-5p). The results showed that APEX1 deletion distinctly attenuated cell growth and metastatic properties in GC, and also sensitized GC cells to DOX. Notably, miR-27a-5p was validated as a suppressor of APEX1-dependent GC development and DOX resistance by a RAS/MEK/FOS and PTEN/AKT/SMAD2 pathway-dependent manner. The altered expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) signatures and signal pathway proteins in the APEX1-deleted cells implied that APEX1 potentially enhances DOX resistance of GC cells by altering the regulation of MAPK and AKT pathways, leading to compromised efficacy of chemotherapy or by initiating additional DNA damage response pathways. Taken together, these findings revealed that as a novel therapeutic target, APEX1/miR-27a-5p axis plays essential roles in modulating the GC development and MDR, and the GC targeted drug delivery formulation presents a strategic reference for the future designation of chemotherapeutics study.

Abstract
Aim: To develop a micelle-type nanobubble decorated with fluorescein-5-isothiocyanate-conjugated transferrin, with encapsulation of paclitaxel (PTX@FT-NB) for lung cancer treatment. Materials & methods: PTX@FT-NBs were characterized to determine their physicochemical properties, structural stability and cytotoxicity. Lung cancer cell and mouse xenograft tumor models were used to evaluate the therapeutic effectiveness of PTX@FT-NB. Results: The PTX@FT-NBs not only showed selective targeting to lung cancer cells but also inhibited tumor growth significantly via paclitaxel release. Furthermore, paclitaxel-induced microtubule stabilization demonstrated the release of the drug from PTX@FT-NB in the targeted tumor cell both in vitro and in vivo. Conclusion: PTX@FT-NB has the potential as an anticancer nanocarrier against lung cancer cells because of its specific targeting and better drug delivery capacity.

Abstract
Liposomes are small spherical vesicles composed mainly of phospholipids and cholesterol. Over the years, a number of liposomal formulations have shown clinical promise, but the use of liposomes in oral drug delivery is limited. This is partly due to the vulnerability of conventional liposomes to the detrimental effect of gastrointestinal destabilizing factors and also to the poor efficiency in intestinal absorption of liposomes. Some of these issues can be ameliorated using the layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly technology, which has been widely applied to modify the surface of various nanoparticulate systems. Discussions about LbL functionalization of liposomes as oral drug carriers, however, are scant in the literature. To fill this gap, this review presents an overview of the roles of LbL functionalization in the development of liposomes, followed by a discussion about major principles of molecular design and engineering of LbL-functionalized liposomes for oral drug delivery. Regarding the versatility offered by LbL assembly, it is anticipated that LbL-functionalized liposomes may emerge as one of the important carriers for oral drug administration in the future.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent disease worldwide, and patients at late stages of CRC often suffer from a high mortality rate after surgery. Adjuvant chemotherapeutics (ACs) have been extensively developed to improve the survival rate of such patients, but conventionally formulated ACs inevitably distribute toxic chemotherapeutic drugs to healthy organs and thus often trigger severe side effects. CRC cells may also develop drug resistance following repeat dosing of conventional ACs, limiting their effectiveness. Given these limitations, researchers have sought to use targeted drug delivery systems (DDSs), specifically the nanotechnology-based DDSs, to deliver the ACs. As lipid-based nanoplatforms have shown the potential to improve the efficacy and safety of various cytotoxic drugs (such as paclitaxel and vincristine) in the clinical treatment of gastric cancer and leukemia, the preclinical progress of lipid-based nanoplatforms has attracted increasing interest. The lipid-based nanoplatforms might be the most promising DDSs to succeed in entering a clinical trial for CRC treatment. This review will briefly examine the history of preclinical research on lipid-based nanoplatforms, summarize the current progress, and discuss the challenges and prospects of using such approaches in the treatment of CRC.

Abstract
Smart drug delivery nano-systems show significant changes in their physical or chemical properties in response to slight change in environmental physical and/or chemical signals, and further releasing drugs adjusted to the progression of the disease at the right target and rate intelligently. Two-dimensional materials possess dramatic status extend all over various scientific and technological disciplines by reason of their exceptional unique properties in application of smart drug delivery nano-systems. In this review, we summarized current progress to highlight various kinds of two-dimensional materials drug carriers which are widely explored in smart drug delivery systems as well as classification of stimuli responsive two-dimensional materials and the advantages and disadvantages of their applications. Consequently, we anticipate that this review might inspire the development of new two-dimensional materials with smart drug delivery systems, and deepen researchers' understanding of smart nano-carries based on two-dimensional materials.

Abstract
Liposomes are extensively used in drug delivery, while alginates are widely used in tissue engineering. However, liposomes are usually thermally unstable and drug-leaking when in liquids, while the drug carriers made of alginates show low loading capacities when used for drug delivery. Herein, we developed a type of thermo-responsible liposome-alginate composite hydrogel (TSPMAH) by grafting thermo-responsive liposomes onto alginates by using Ca2+ mediated bonding between the phosphatidic serine (PS) in the liposome membrane and the alginate. The temperature-sensitivity of the liposomes was actualized by using phospholipids comprising dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and PS and the liposomes were prepared by a thin-film dispersion method. The TSPMAH was then successfully prepared by bridge-linking the microcapsules onto the alginate hydrogel via PS-Ca2+-Carboxyl-alginate interaction. Characterizations of the TSPMAH were carried out using scanning electron microscopy, transform infrared spectroscopy, and laser scanning confocal microscopy, respectively. Their rheological property was also characterized by using a rheometer. Cytotoxicity evaluations of the TSPMAH showed that the composite hydrogel was biocompatible, safe, and non-toxic. Further, loading and thermos-inducible release of model drugs encapsulated by the TSPMAH as a drug carrier system was also studied by making protamine-siRNA complex-carrying TSPMAH drug carriers. Our results indicated that the TSPMAH described herein has great potentials to be further developed into an intelligent drug delivery system.

Abstract
PURPOSE Combination therapy for tumors is an important and promising strategy to improve therapeutic efficiency. This study aims at combining tumor targeting, chemo-, and photodynamic therapies to improve the anti-tumor performance. PATIENTS AND METHODS Human serum albumin (HSA), as a nontoxic and biodegradable drug carrier, was used to load hydrophobic photosensitizers (mono-substituted β-4-pyridyloxy phthalocyanine zinc, mPPZ) by a dilution-incubation-purification (DIP) strategy to form molecular complex HSA:mPPZ. This complex was cross-linked as nanoparticles, and then chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX) was adsorbed into the nanoparticles to achieve combined photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy. Next, the surface of the obtained composite was modified by a tumor surface receptor (urokinase receptor) targeting agent (ATF-HSA) using a noncovalent method to obtain the final product (ATF-HSA@HSA:mPPZ:DOX nanoparticles, AHmDN). RESULTS AHmDN exhibited strong stability, remarkable cytotoxicity and higher uptake to tumor cells. Cell imaging analysis indicated that DOX was separated from AHmDN and uniformly distributed in cell nucleus while mPPZ localized in cytoplasm. The PDT activity of all the samples had been confirmed by the detection of intracellular ROS. In animal experiments, AHmDN was demonstrated to have a prominent tumor-targeting effect using a 3D imaging system. In addition, the enhanced antitumor effect of AHmDN in tumor-bearing mice was also been observed. Importantly, the tumor-targeting effect of such nanoparticles lasted for about 14 days after one injection. CONCLUSION These albumin nanoparticles with combined functions of tumor targeting, chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy can highly enhance the anti-tumor effect. This drug delivery system can be applied to package other hydrophobic photosensitizers and chemotherapy drugs for improving therapeutic efficacy to tumors.

Abstract
Engineering of water-dispersible Gd3+ ions-decorated reduced graphene oxide (Gd-rGO) nanosheets (NSs) has been performed. The multifunctional capability of the sample was studied as a novel contrast agent for swept source optical coherence tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, and also as an efficient drug-delivery nanovehicle. The synthesized samples were fabricated in a chemically stable condition, and efforts have been put toward improving its biocompatibility by functionalizing with carbohydrates molecules. Gd incorporation in rGO matrix enhanced the fluorouracil (5-FU) drug loading capacity by 34%. The release of the drug was ∼92% within 72 h. Gd-rGO nanosheets showed significant contrast in comparison to optically responsive bare GO for swept source optical coherence tomography. The longitudinal relaxivity rate (r 1) of 16.85 mM-1 s-1 for Gd-rGO was recorded, which was 4 times larger than that of the commercially used clinical contrast agent Magnevist (4 mM-1 s-1) at a magnetic field strength of 1.5 T.

Abstract
During the past few years, graphene has outstandingly emerged as a key nanomaterial for boosting the performance of commercial, industrial and scientific related technologies. The popularity of this novel nanomaterial in biomedical engineering is due to its excellent biological, electronic, optical and thermal properties that, as a whole, surpass the features of commonly used biomaterials and consequently open a wide range of applications so far within the reach of science fiction. In this minireview, the potential of graphene and its based materials in the expanding biomedical field is highlighted with focus on groundbreaking diagnostic, monitoring and therapeutic strategies. Some of the major challenges related to the synthesis and safety of graphene-based materials are also briefly discussed because of their critical importance in bringing this class of carbon materials closer to the clinic.

Abstract
This paper describes the design of stimuli-sensitive theranostic nanoparticles, composed of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) self-assembled on thermosensitive liposomes encapsulated doxorubicin (DOX) and carbon quantum dot (CQD) (CQD-DOX-rGO-Tlip). The rGO-Tlip particles have been observed to be flower-shaped objects. The thermoresponsive and theranostic potential of CQD-DOX-rGO-Tlips have been studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescent assays. The chemo-photothermal potential of rGO-Tlip on MD-MB-231 cells during NIR laser irradiation has been examined using MTT assay. Also, the ability of rGO-Tlip to be taken up by MD-MB-231 cells has been studied using confocal microscopy and flowcytometry. The results indicate that CQD-DOX-rGO-Tlips achieve a synergistic effect between photothermal therapy and chemotherapy for cancer treatment. Furthermore, online monitoring drug release is accomplished by studying the emission intensity of CQD while DOX released.

Abstract
The extensive research of graphene and its derivatives in biomedical applications during the past few years has witnessed its significance in the field of nanomedicine. Starting from simple drug delivery systems, the application of graphene and its derivatives has been extended to a versatile platform of multiple therapeutic modalities, including photothermal therapy, photodynamic therapy, magnetic hyperthermia therapy, and sonodynamic therapy. In addition to monotherapy, graphene-based materials are widely applied in combined therapies for enhanced anticancer activity and reduced side effects. In particular, graphene-based materials are often designed and fabricated as "smart" platforms for stimuli-responsive nanocarriers, whose therapeutic effects can be activated by the tumor microenvironment, such as acidic pH and elevated glutathione (termed as "endogenous stimuli"), or light, magnetic, or ultrasonic stimuli (termed as "exogenous stimuli"). Herein, the recent advances of smart graphene platforms for combined therapy applications are presented, starting with the principle for the design of graphene-based smart platforms in combined therapy applications. Next, recent advances of combined therapies contributed by graphene-based materials, including chemotherapy-based, photothermal-therapy-based, and ultrasound-therapy-based synergistic therapy, are outlined. In addition, current challenges and future prospects regarding this promising field are discussed.

Abstract
Tremendous efforts have been devoted to the development of future nanomedicines that can be specifically designed to incorporate responsive elements that undergo modification in structural properties upon external triggers. One potential use of such stimuli-responsive materials is to release encapsulated cargo upon excitation by an external trigger. Today, such stimuli-response materials allow for spatial and temporal tunability, which enables the controlled delivery of compounds in a specific and dose-dependent manner. This potentially is of great interest for medicine (e.g. allowing for remotely controlled drug delivery to cells, etc.). Among the different external exogenous and endogenous stimuli used to control the desired release, light and magnetic fields offer interesting possibilities, allowing defined, real time control of intracellular releases. In this review we highlight the use of stimuli-responsive controlled release systems that are able to respond to light and magnetic field triggers for controlling the release of encapsulated cargo inside cells. We discuss established approaches and technologies and describe prominent examples. Special attention is devoted towards polymer capsules and polymer vesicles as containers for encapsulated cargo molecules. The advantages and disadvantages of this methodology in both, in vitro and in vivo models are discussed. An overview of challenges associate with the successful translation of those stimuli-responsive materials towards future applications in the direction of potential clinical use is given.
