Abstract
As one of the most instrumental components in the architecture of advanced nanomedicines, plasmonic nanostructures (mainly gold and silver nanomaterials) have been paid a lot of attention. This type of nanomaterial can absorb light photons with a specific wavelength and generate heat or excited electrons through surface resonance, which is a unique physical property. In innovative biomaterials, a significant number of theranostic (therapeutic and diagnostic) materials are produced through the conjugation of thiol-containing ingredients with gold and silver nanoparticles (Au and Ag NPs). Hence, it is essential to investigate Au/Ag-S interfaces precisely and determine the exact bonding states in the active nanobiomaterials. This study intends to provide useful insights into the interactions between Au/Ag NPs and thiol groups that exist in the structure of biomaterials. In this regard, the modeling of Au/Ag-S bonding in active biological ingredients is precisely reviewed. Then, the physiological stability of Au/Ag-based plasmonic nanobioconjugates in real physiological environments (pharmacokinetics) is discussed. Recent experimental validation and achievements of plasmonic theranostics and radiolabelled nanomaterials based on Au/Ag-S conjugation are also profoundly reviewed. This study will also help researchers working on biosensors in which plasmonic devices deal with the thiol-containing biomaterials (e.g., antibodies) inside blood serum and living cells.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common and deadly malignancy, ranking second in terms of mortality and third in terms of incidence on a global scale. The survival rates for CRC patients are unsatisfactory primarily because of the absence of highly effective clinical strategies. The efficacy of existing CRC treatments, such as chemotherapy (CT), is constrained by issues such as drug resistance and damage to healthy tissues. Alternative approaches such as photothermal therapy (PTT), while offering advantages over traditional therapies, suffer instead from a low efficiency in killing tumor cells when used alone. In this context, nanostructures can efficiently contribute to a selective and targeted treatment. Here, we combined CT and PTT by developing a nanoplatform based on polydopamine nanoparticles (PDNPs), selected for their biocompatibility, drug-carrying capabilities, and ability to produce heat upon exposure to near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. As a chemotherapy drug, sorafenib has been selected, a multikinase inhibitor already approved for clinical use. By encapsulating sorafenib in polydopamine nanoparticles (Sor-PDNPs), we were able to successfully improve the drug stability in physiological media and the consequent uptake by CRC cells, thereby increasing its therapeutic effects. Upon NIR stimulus, Sor-PDNPs can induce a temperature increment of about 10 °C, encompassing both PTT and triggering a localized and massive drug release. Sor-PDNPs were tested on healthy colon cells, showing minimal adverse outcomes; conversely, they demonstrated excellent efficacy against CRC cells, with a strong capability to hinder cancer cell proliferation and induce apoptosis. Obtained findings pave the way to new synergistic chemo-photothermal approaches, maximizing the therapeutic outcomes against CRC while minimizing side effects on healthy cells.

Polydopamine based photothermal/photodynamic synchronous coating modified intraocular lens for efficient and safer posterior capsule opacification prevention. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2024; 158:213792.

Abstract
Posterior capsule opacification (PCO), as one of the most common late complications after intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in cataract surgery, seriously affects patients' postoperative vision and surgical satisfaction, and can only be treated by laser incision of the posterior capsule. Although drug eluting coating modification have been proved to inhibit PCO effectively, the complicated coating methods and the potential toxicity of the antiproliferative drugs hinders its actual application. In this study, an indocyanine green (ICG) loaded polydopamine (PDA) coating modified IOL (IP-IOL) was designed to prevented PCO. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown that IP-IOL can effectively eliminate lens epithelial cells and significantly reduce the degree of PCO. At the same time, it still has good imaging quality and optical properties. Furthermore, both the near-infrared irradiation and ICG loaded PDA coating modified IOLs have proved to possess high biological safety to eyes. Thus, with easy preparation and safer near-infrared irradiated photothermal/photodynamic synchronous properties, such ICG loaded PDA coating provides an effective yet easier and safer PCO prevention after IOL implantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical application of human bone-marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for the treatment of refractory diseases has achieved remarkable results. However, there is a need for a systematic evaluation of the quality and safety of MSCs sourced from donors. In this study, we sought to assess one potential factor that might impact quality, namely the age of the donor. METHODS We downloaded two data sets from each of two Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), GSE39035 and GSE97311 databases, namely samples form young (< 65 years of age) and old (> 65) donor groups. Through, bioinformatics analysis and experimental validation to these retrieved data, we found that MSCs derived from aged donors can lead to differential expression of gene profiles compared with those from young donors, and potentially affect the function of MSCs, and may even induce malignant tumors. RESULTS We identified a total of 337 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including two upregulated and eight downregulated genes from the databases of both GSE39035 and GSE97311. We further identified 13 hub genes. Six of them, TBX15, IGF1, GATA2, PITX2, SNAI1 and VCAN, were highly expressed in many human malignancies in Human Protein Atlas database. In the MSCs in vitro senescent cell model, qPCR analysis validated that all six hub genes were highly expressed in senescent MSCs. Our findings confirm that aged donors of MSCs have a significant effect on gene expression profiles. The MSCs from old donors have the potential to cause a variety of malignancies. These TBX15, IGF1, GATA2, PITX2, SNAI1, VCAN genes could be used as potential biomarkers to diagnosis aging state of donor MSCs, and evaluate whether MSCs derived from an aged donor could be used for therapy in the clinic. Our findings provide a diagnostic basis for the clinical use of MSCs to treat a variety of diseases. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, our findings not only provide guidance for the safe and standardized use of MSCs in the clinic for the treatment of various diseases, but also provide insights into the use of cell regeneration approaches to reverse aging and support rejuvenation.

Abstract
Recently, drug delivery strategies based on nanomaterials have attracted a lot of interest in different kinds of therapies because of their superior properties. Polydopamine (PDA), one of the most interesting materials in nanomedicine because of its versatility and biocompatibility, has been widely investigated in the drug delivery field. It can be easily functionalized to favor processes like cellular uptake and blood circulation, and it can also induce drug release through two kinds of stimuli: NIR light irradiation and pH. In this review, we describe PDA nanomaterials' performance on drug delivery, based on their size, morphology, and surface charge. Indeed, these characteristics strongly influence the main mechanisms involved in a drug delivery system: blood circulation, cellular uptake, drug loading, and drug release. The understanding of the connections between PDA nanosystems' properties and these phenomena is pivotal to obtain a controlled design of new nanocarriers based on the specific drug delivery applications.

Abstract
Purpose The search for effective and low-risk treatment methods for colorectal cancer (CRC) is a pressing concern, given the inherent risks and adverse reactions associated with traditional therapies. Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as a promising approach for cancer treatment, offering advantages such as non-radiation, non-invasiveness, and targeted treatment. Consequently, the development of nanoparticles with high stability, biocompatibility, and photothermal effects has become a significant research focus within the field of PTT. Methods In this study, TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites were synthesized and characterized, and their photothermal conversion efficiency in the near-infrared region II (NIR-II) was determined. Then studied the in vivo and in vitro photothermal activity and anti-tumor effect of TiO2-Ti3C2 in human colorectal cancer cell lines and nude mice subcutaneous tumor model. Results The results showed that TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites have strong absorption ability in the NIR-II, and have high photothermal conversion efficiency under 1064 nm (0.5 W/cm2, 6 min) laser stimulation. In addition, in vitro experiments showed that TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites significantly inhibited the invasion, migration, and proliferation of colorectal cancer cells, and induced cell apoptosis; in vivo, experiments showed that TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites-mediated PTT had good biocompatibility and efficient targeted inhibition of tumor growth. Conclusion In conclusion, TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites can be used as NIR-II absorption materials in PTT to suppress the invasion, migration, and proliferation of colorectal cancer cells, induce colorectal cancer cell apoptosis, and thus inhibit the development of CRC. Therefore, TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites can be used as potential anti-tumor drugs for photothermal ablation of colorectal cancer cells.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles (NPs) have diverse nanomedicine applications owing to their biocompatibility and abundant entry to cells. Yet, our knowledge in their interactions with cells was infrequently studied until recent years. This review presents the latest insights into the cell-nano interactions of PDA NPs, including their 'self-targeting' to dopamine receptors for cellular entry without the aid of ligands, in vitro 'self-therapeutic' cellular responses (antiferroptosis, macrophage polarization, and modulation of mitochondrial bioenergetics) in the absence of drugs, and in vivo cellular localization and pharmacological properties upon various routes of administration. This review concludes with our perspectives on the therapeutic promise of PDA NPs and the need for studies on PDA biochemistry, biodegradability, and protein adsorption.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an emerging non-invasive method used in cancer treatment. In PTT, near-infrared laser light is absorbed by a chromophore and converted into heat within the tumor tissue. PTT for cancer usually combines a variety of interactive plasmonic nanomaterials with laser irradiation. PTT enjoys PT agents with high conversion efficiency to convert light into heat to destroy malignant tissue. In this review, published studies concerned with the use of nanoparticles (NPs) in PTT were collected by a systematic and comprehensive search of PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, and Scopus databases. Gold, silver and iron NPs were the most frequent choice in PTT. The use of surface modified NPs allowed selective delivery and led to a precise controlled increase in the local temperature. The presence of NPs during PTT can increase the reactive generation of oxygen species, damage the DNA and mitochondria, leading to cancer cell death mainly via apoptosis. Many studies recently used core-shell metal NPs, and the effects of the polymer coating or ligands targeted to specific cellular receptors in order to increase PTT efficiency were often reported. The effective parameters (NP type, size, concentration, coated polymers or attached ligands, exposure conditions, cell line or type, and cell death mechanisms) were investigated individually. With the advances in chemical synthesis technology, NPs with different shapes, sizes, and coatings can be prepared with desirable properties, to achieve multimodal cancer treatment with precision and specificity.

Abstract
The biosafety and degradability of nanocarriers have always been an important factor restricting their entry into the clinic. In this work, a new nano-system was prepared by coating the photothermal effect of dopamine-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticles with carboxymethyl chitin through electrostatic interaction, and is further anchored with folic acid on the surface for targeted delivery of anti-cancer the drug doxorubicin (DOX). The nano-system (DOX@PDA/MSN-CMCS-FA) is simply modified CMCS after being loaded with DOX and has good dispersibility, and the drug loading is 10.6%. In vitro release studies have shown that the release rate of PDA/MSN-CMCS-FA is 40% in pH 5.5. Effective degradation is debris in 14 d acidic environments. Due to the anti-infrared photothermal effects of PDA doping and DOX chemotherapy, the semi-lethal concentration (IC50) of nanoparticles (NPS) was 14.95 μg/mL, which can inhibit tumor cell growth by photochemical synergistic treatment, and have certain degradation performance.

Abstract
Cancer is a fatal disease with a complex pathophysiology. Lack of specificity and cytotoxicity, as well as the multidrug resistance of traditional cancer chemotherapy, are the most common limitations that often cause treatment failure. Thus, in recent years, significant efforts have concentrated on the development of a modernistic field called nano-oncology, which provides the possibility of using nanoparticles (NPs) with the aim to detect, target, and treat cancer diseases. In comparison with conventional anticancer strategies, NPs provide a targeted approach, preventing undesirable side effects. What is more, nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems have shown good pharmacokinetics and precise targeting, as well as reduced multidrug resistance. It has been documented that, in cancer cells, NPs promote reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, activate ER (endoplasmic reticulum) stress, modulate various signaling pathways, etc. Furthermore, their ability to inhibit tumor growth in vivo has also been documented. In this paper, we have reviewed the role of silver NPs (AgNPs) in cancer nanomedicine, discussing numerous mechanisms by which they render anticancer properties under both in vitro and in vivo conditions, as well as their potential in the diagnosis of cancer.

Polydopamine (PDA) is a biopolymer with unique physicochemical properties, including free-radical scavenging, high photothermal conversion efficiency, biocompatibility, biodegradability, excellent fluorescent and theranostic capacity due to their abundant surface chemistry. Thus, PDA is used for a myriad of applications including drug delivery, biosensing, imaging and cancer therapy. Recent reports present a new functionality of PDA as a coating nanomaterial, with major implications in mucosal drug delivery applications, particularly muco-adhesion and muco-penetration. However, this application has received minimal traction in the literature. In this review, we present the physicochemical and functional properties of PDA and highlight its key biomedical applications, especially in cancer therapy. A detailed presentation of the role of PDA as a promising coating material for nanoparticulate carriers intended for mucosal delivery forms the core aspect of the review. Finally, a reflection on key considerations and challenges in the utilizing PDA for mucosal drug delivery, along with the possibilities of translation to clinical studies is expounded.

Abstract
Although the clinical application of nanoparticles is still limited by biological barriers and distribution, with the deepening of our understanding of nanoparticles over the past decades, people are gradually breaking through the previous limitations in the diagnosis and treatment of tumors, providing novel strategies for clinical decision makers. The transition of nanoparticles from passive targeting to active tumor-targeting by abundant surface-modified nanoparticles is also a development process of precision cancer treatment. Different particles can be used as targeted delivery tools of antitumor drugs. The mechanism of gold nanoparticles inducing apoptosis and cycle arrest of tumor cells has been discovered. Moreover, the unique photothermal effect of gold nanoparticles may be widely used in tumor therapy in the future, with less side effects on surrounding tissues. Lipid-based nanoparticles are expected to overcome the blood-brain barrier due to their special characteristics, while polymer-based nanoparticles show better biocompatibility and lower toxicity. In this paper, we discuss the development of nanoparticles in tumor therapy and the challenges that need to be addressed.

Abstract
Gold nanorods have been studied extensively in the field of tumor therapy but have not been explored in the treatment of venous malformation (VM), which is a common vascular disease in clinic practice lacking an effective therapeutic approach. Herein we reported a nanoplatform of CD31 antibody-conjugated gold nanorods for the photothermal therapy of venous malformation. We immobilized CD31 antibodies on gold nanorods using standard 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC)/N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide sodium (NHS) amine coupling strategies. Besides, a VM xenograft model suitable for testing therapeutic efficacy was established by isolating and culturing VM patient endothelial cells. In vitro experiments indicated that anti-CD31 gold nanorods (GNRs) combined with photothermal therapy (PTT) contributed to the suppression of proliferation and activation of the apoptosis pathway. For in vivo experiments, anti-CD31 GNRs were locally injected into VM xenograft models followed by near infrared (NIR) 808 nm laser irradiation. Notably, VM on the mice was destroyed and absorbed. The anti-CD31 GNRs nanoplatform may serve as a new strategy for the treatment of VM which is of good biosafety and high value of applications.

Abstract
Photoresponsive soft materials are everywhere in the nature, from human's retina tissues to plants, and have been the inspiration for engineers in the development of modern biomedical materials. Light as an external stimulus is particularly attractive because it is relatively cheap, noninvasive to superficial biological tissues, can be delivered contactless and offers high spatiotemporal control. In the biomedical field, soft materials that respond to long wavelength or that incorporate a photon upconversion mechanism are desired to overcome the limited UV-visible light penetration into biological tissues. Upon light exposure, photosensitive soft materials respond through mechanisms of isomerization, crosslinking or cleavage, hyperthermia, photoreactions, electrical current generation, among others. In this review, we discuss the most recent applications of photosensitive soft materials in the modulation of cellular behavior, for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, in drug delivery and for phototherapies.

Abstract
Chronic infected wound healing is a critical challenge in clinical practice owing to the involvement of multiple physiological processes, including bacteria-related, inflammatory regulation and angiogenesis. Therefore, a multi-functional strategy with synergistic anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic effects should be developed. Owing to their biomimetic structural features and controlled delivery of active agents, electrospun nanofilms are promising biomaterials for the treatment of skin defects. In this study, we fabricated multi-functional nanofilms with pro-angiogenic, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory capacities. First, strontium (Sr) ions were incorporated into poly(L-lactic-co-caprolactone) (PLCL) nanofilms. Subsequently, polydopamine (PDA) and zinc oxide (ZnO) were decorated onto the surface of Sr-loaded PLCL nanofilms to prepare ZnO/PDA@PLCL@Sr nanofilms. In vitro results showed that ZnO/PDA@PLCL@Sr nanofilms were biocompatible, exhibited angiogenic activity and significantly inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli upon near-infrared -light irradiation. Furthermore, ZnO/PDA@PLCL@Sr nanofilms were found to drive the transformation of macrophages into the M2 phenotype. In vivo results further validated that ZnO/PDA@PLCL@Sr nanofilms exhibited pro-angiogenic and anti-bacterial activities and regulated inflammation to accelerate wound -healing in a rat model of bacteria-infected skin defects. In conclusion, we successfully developed a multi-functional biomaterial with pro-angiogenic, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory capacities to treat chronic infected wounds.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal cancer (GIC) is the most common cancer with a poor prognosis. Currently, surgery is the main treatment for GIC. However, the high rate of postoperative recurrence leads to a low five-year survival rate. In recent years, immunotherapy has received much attention. As the only immunotherapy drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) drugs have great potential in cancer therapy. Nevertheless, the efficacy of ICB treatment is greatly limited by the low immunogenicity and immunosuppressive microenvironment of GIC. Therefore, the targets of immunotherapy have expanded from ICB to increasing tumor immunogenicity, increasing the recruitment and maturation of immune cells and reducing the proportion of inhibitory immune cells, such as M2-like macrophages, regulatory T cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells. Moreover, with the development of nanotechnology, a variety of nanoparticles have been approved by the FDA for clinical therapy, so novel nanodrug delivery systems have become a research focus for anticancer therapy. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the application of immunotherapy-based nanoparticles in GICs, such as gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer, and described the existing challenges and future trends.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most prevalent type of cancer for incidence and second for mortality worldwide. Late diagnosis and inconvenient and expensive current diagnostic tools largely contribute to the progress of the disease. The use of chemotherapy in the management of CRC significantly reduces tumor growth, metastasis, and morbidity rates. However, poor solubility, low cellular uptake, nonspecific distribution, multiple drug resistance and unwanted adverse effects are still among the major drawbacks of chemotherapy that limit its clinical significance in the treatment of CRC. Owing to their remarkable advantages over conventional therapies, the use of nanotechnology-based delivery systems especially polymeric nanocarriers (PNCs) has revolutionized many fields including disease diagnosis and drug delivery. AIM OF REVIEW In this review, we shed the light on the current status of using PNCs in the diagnosis and treatment of CRC with a special focus on targeting strategies, surface modifications and safety concerns for different types of PNCs in colonic cancer delivery. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW The review explores the current progress on the use of PNCs in the diagnosis and treatment of CRC with a special focus on the role of PNCs in improvement of cellular uptake, drug targeting and co-delivery of chemotherapeutic agents. Possible toxicity and biocompatibility issues related to the use of PNCs and imitations and future recommendation for the use of those smart carriers in the diagnosis and treatment of CRC are also discussed.

Abstract
It is critical to construct stimuli-responsive multifunctional nanoparticles for the drug delivery system for cancer treatment. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) has a large specific surface area and decomposes quickly under acidic conditions, which presents an excellent potential in pH-sensitive drug carriers. However, the mere chemotherapeutic drug loaded into ZIF-8 is a monotherapy and may restrict the therapeutic efficacy of malignancies. In this work, an effective nanoparticle-based delivery platform is established to simultaneously encapsulate doxorubicin (DOX) and MXene quantum dot (MQD) in ZIF-8 nanoparticles (MQD@ZIF-8/DOX). Under near-infrared (NIR) laser (808 nm) and UV light (365 nm) irradiation, MQD@ZIF-8 demonstrates a high photothermal conversion efficiency and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, which shows excellent photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy effects. Furthermore, the release of DOX-loaded into MQD@ZIF-8 nanoparticles is significantly increased under NIR laser irradiation and at pH 5.6, indicating that acidic conditions and NIR laser irradiation can be effectively combined to stimulate the drug release. The cellular experiments show that MQD@ZIF-8/DOX has an obvious killing effect on HeLa cells and achieves the combined anti-tumor effect of chemotherapy and phototherapy.

Abstract
Artesunate (AS), the first-line treatment of malaria with a satisfactory safety profile, has been repurposed as a potential anticancer candidate as it mainly generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) through its intrinsic endoperoxide bridge reacting with ferrous-based catalysts to suppress cancer cell growth. However, further clinical translation of AS is hindered by the attenuated anticancer efficacy due to insufficient ROS generation. Herein, we rationally integrated hydrophobic-modified AS (hAS) with biomimetic polydopamine (PDA) and biomineral calcium carbonate to fabricate high AS-loaded nanomedicine (Ca-PDA/hAS@PEG) for cancer chemo-photothermal therapy, which exerted anticancer effects in the following ways: (1) the heat was generated when PDA was irradiated by near-infrared (NIR) light for photothermal therapy. Meanwhile, the increased temperature accelerated the production of ROS from hAS, thus enhancing the anticancer efficacy of hAS-based chemotherapy; (2) hAS-mediated chemotherapy boosted the cancer inhibition effect of photothermal therapy by arousing the intracellular ROS levels in the presence of endogenous ferrous ions and sensitizing cancer cells to thermal ablation; (3) the integration of calcium carbonate into the nanoparticle facilitated the pH-responsive drug release for precise treatment. Such hybrid nanoparticles exhibited a combinational antitumor effect of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy in vivo with no systemic toxicity. Taken together, our work presents a facile strategy to improve the anticancer efficacy of AS by combining chemical modification and photothermal therapy-assisted endoperoxide bridge cleavage, which may offer opportunities to pave the way for clinical translation of AS-based nanomedicines. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The clinical translation of artesunate (AS) is hindered by the attenuated anticancer efficacy due to insufficient ROS generation. Herein, we rationally integrated hydrophobic-modified AS (hAS) with biomimetic polydopamine (PDA) and biomineral calcium carbonate to fabricate high AS-loaded nanomedicine (Ca-PDA/hAS@PEG) for improved cancer chemo-photothermal therapy. The heat generated from PDA in response to near-infrared light irradiation could locally ablate tumor as well as accelerate the production of ROS by hAS, thus enhancing the anticancer efficacy of hAS-based chemotherapy. On the other hand, hAS-based chemotherapy amplified the intracellular oxidative stress, sensitizing cancer cells to thermal ablation. Our work presents a facile strategy to improve the anticancer efficacy of AS by combining chemical modification and photothermal therapy-assisted endoperoxide bridge cleavage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a minimally invasive or noninvasive method by destructing cancer cells through selective thermal decomposition. However, a long period of laser irradiation to achieve coagulative necrosis often causes unfavorable thermal damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. The current study aims to evaluate the feasibility of temporal power modulation to improve the treatment efficacy of gold nanorods-assisted PTT against tumor tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 25 µg/ml of PEGylated gold nanorods (PEG-GNR) was used as an absorbing agent during 1064 nm laser irradiation for PTT. Temperature monitoring was conducted on the aqueous solution of PEG-GNR for dosimetry comparison. For in vivo tests, CT-26 tumor-bearing murine models with PEG-GNR injected were treated with three irradiation conditions: 3 W/cm2 for 90 s, 1.5 W/cm2 for 180 s, and 3 W/cm2 for 60 s followed by 1.5 W/cm2 for 60 s (modulated). Ten days after the treatments, histology analysis was performed to assess the extent of coagulation necrosis in the treated tissues. RESULTS The temporal power modulation maintained the tissue temperature of around 50°C for a longer period during the irradiation. Histology analysis confirmed that the modulated group entailed a larger coagulative necrosis area with less thermal damage to the peripheral tissue, compared to the other irradiation conditions. CONCLUSION Therefore, the power-modulated PTT could improve treatment efficacy with reduced injury by maintaining the constant tissue temperature. Further studies will examine the feasibility of the proposed technique in large animal models in terms of acute and chronic tissue responses and treatment margin for clinical translations.

Abstract
Bacterial infection remains one of the most dangerous threats to human health due to the increasing cases of bacterial resistance, which is caused by the extensive use of current antibiotics. Photothermal therapy (PTT) is similar to photodynamic therapy (PDT), but PTT can generate heat energy under the excitation of light of specific wavelength, resulting in overheating and damage to target cells or sites. Polydopamine (PDA) has been proved to show plenty of advantages, such as simple preparation, good photothermal conversion effects, high biocompatibility, and easy functionalization and adhesion. Taking these advantages, dopamine is widely used to synthesize the PDA nanosystem with excellent photothermal effects, good biocompatibility, and high drug loading ability, which therefore play more and more important roles for anticancer and antibacterial treatment. PDA nanosystem-mediated PTT has been reported to induce significant tumor inhibition, as well as bacterial killings due to PTT-induced hyperthermia. Moreover, combined with other cancer or bacterial inhibition strategies, PDA nanosystem-mediated PTT can achieve more effective tumor and bacterial inhibitions. In this review, we summarized the progress of preparation methods for the PDA nanosystem, followed by advances of their biological functions and mechanisms for PTT uses, especially in the field of antibacterial treatments. We also provided advances on how to combine PDA nanosystem-mediated PTT with other antibacterial methods for synergistic bacterial killings. Moreover, we further provide some prospects of PDA nanosystem-mediated PTT against intracellular bacteria, which might be helpful to facilitate their future research progress for antibacterial therapy.

Abstract
Combination therapy system has become a promising strategy for achieving favorable antitumor efficacy. Herein, a novel oral drug delivery system with colon localization and tumor targeting functions was designed for orthotopic colon cancer chemotherapy and photothermal combinational therapy. The polydopamine coated nanodiamond (PND) was used as the photothermal carrier, through the coupling of sulfhydryl-polyethylene glycol-folate (SH-PEG-FA) on the surface of PND to achieve systematic colon tumor targeting, curcumin (CUR) was loaded as the model drug, and then coated with chitosan (CS) to achieve the long gastrointestinal tract retention and colon localization functions to obtain PND-PEG-FA/CUR@CS nanoparticles. It has high photothermal conversion efficiency and good photothermal stability and exhibited near-infrared (NIR) laser-responsive drug release behavior. Folate (FA) modification effectively promotes the intracellular uptake of nanoparticles by CT26 cells, and the combination of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy (CT/PTT) can enhance cytotoxicity. Compared with free CUR group, nanoparticles prolonged the gastrointestinal tract retention time, accumulated more in colon tumor tissues, and exhibited good photothermal effect in vivo. More importantly, the CT/PTT group exhibited satisfactory tumor growth inhibition effects with good biocompatibility in vivo. In summary, this oral drug delivery system is an efficient platform for chemotherapy and photothermal combinational therapy of orthotopic colon cancer.

The Potential Role of Nanoparticles as an Anticancer Therapy in the Treatment of Rectal Cancer. Processes (Basel) 2021.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is a rapidly developing science and is applied in a variety of diagnostic and treatment technologies. Colorectal cancer is one of the deadliest human diseases, and hence, wide research is underway regarding its preventative measures. This review demonstrated that “nano” drug delivery systems have successfully transferred pharmaceutical drug particles at the nanoscale as compared to larger particles. Research has shown a higher rate of disease progression among patients who receive conventional drugs compared to those who were given nanoscale drugs. However, the behavior of the cellular components differs from the performance of larger cellular components of the same type; these differences are due to the physical interactions between the nanoparticles (NPs). The review aimed to discuss several recent research studies focused on delivering NPs for the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC). The reviewed experiments have primarily compared the use of NPs alone or with the addition of an anticancer drug or nanocarriers. These three research methods may help solve past problems and propose new future approaches for colorectal cancer by utilizing the available nanotechnologies. Furthermore, the review illustrated the underlying idea behind NP carriers and stem cell delivery that can be used to create a rapid delivery system for stem cells.

Abstract
Among the diverse nanomaterials, polymer-based nanocomposites are gained more attention due to their high efficacy, target biological activities, biodegradability and biocompatibility-gum acacia (GA) - a polymer obtained from acacia trees-is considering the multifunctional nanocomposite synthesis. Distinctive Physico-chemical and biocompatibility properties of gum acacia are utilised to prepare a highly stable, biologically active, eco-friendly Nanocomposite. In this current investigation, gum acacia - poly ethylene glycol grafted iron oxide nanocomposite (GA-PEG-IONC) was synthesised by in situ green science principles. The synthesised Nanocomposite was evaluated against the molecular mechanism of urinary tract pathogenic bacterial strains and prostate cancer cells (Pc 3). Nanocomposite prepared in this examination exhibited notable structural, functional stability with nanoarchitecture which was affirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), electron microscopic studies, atomic force microscopy (AFM), vibrating sample magnetometric analysis (VSM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), Synthesised Nanocomposite brought about notable antibacterial activity against urinary tract pathogenic strains by recording potential inhibitory effect on the expression of Las R gene. Inhibition of Las R gene expression reduced notable effect on biofilm development. Anticancer activity against prostate cancer cells (Pc3) was investigated by measurement of HOXB13 gene expression level. Inhibition of HOXB13 gene expression by the IONC brought about structural, functional changes. HOXB13 gene expression inhibition reveals a remarkable cytotoxic effect by recording decreased cell viability. Morphometric analysis by phase-contrast and DAPI fluorescence staining demonstrates that the Nanocomposite prompted cell morphology anomalies or apoptotic changes. Nanocomposite treatment brought about a good sign of Apoptosis by recording enhanced caspase 3 and 9 activities, DNA fragmentation and elevated reactive oxygen species generation (ROS). Hemocompatibility studies were carried out to determine the biocompatibility of the Nanocomposite. Spectrophotometric estimation of plasma haemoglobin, microscopic examination of whole blood cells shows the Nanocomposite was not inciting any indication of toxicity. These findings infer that IONC synthesised in the present study is the promising contender for a broad scope of biomedical applications, especially as an antibacterial and anticancer agent.

Abstract
Among the diverse nanomaterials, gold nanoparticles (AuNps) are utilised for various therapeutic application due to the distinct physical, chemical properties and biocompatibility. Synthesis of gold nanoparticles using plants is the promising route. This method is low cost, eco-friendly and higher biological activities. In this present study, Gold nanoparticles were synthesised from fruit extract of Terminalia bellirica fruit extract. Their anticancer and anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated against colorectal cancer cell line (HT29) and TNBS-induced zebrafish model. Highly stable tannin capped gold nanoparticles were synthesised from fruit extract broth of Terminalia bellirica rapidly. Structural and functional properties of the synthesised nanoparticles were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) equipped with energy-dispersive atomic X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). All the characterisation studies reveal highly stable, crystalline, phytochemicals, mainly tannin doped, spherical, 28 nm controlled sized gold nanoparticles. The molecular mechanism of anticancer activity was studied by determining cancer markers' expression, which was studied using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Antioxidative enzymes' status and apoptosis changes were also investigated. Synthesised nanoparticles brought a drastic reduction of all the tested cancer markers' expression. Notable changes in antioxidative enzymes' status and a good sign of apoptosis were observed in nanoparticles' treatment. The anti-inflammatory activity was studied against TNBS-induced zebrafish model, which was confirmed by determining inflammatory markers' expression TNF-α, iNOS (induced Nitric Oxide Synthase) and histopathological examination. Nanoparticles' treatment recorded a drastic reduction of inflammatory markers' expression. No marked sign of inflammation was also observed in histopathological analysis of the nanoparticles' treatment group. The present study suggests the possible utilisation of T. bellirica-mediated gold nanoparticles as an effective therapeutic agent against a prolonged inflammatory disease that progressively develops into cancer.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as a promising cancer therapeutic method. In this study, Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptide-conjugated polydopamine-coated gold nanostars (Au@PDA-RGD NPs) were prepared for targeting PTT of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A polydopamine (PDA) shell was coated on the surface of gold nanostars by the oxidative self-polymerization of dopamine (termed as Au@PDA NPs). Au@PDA NPs were further functionalized with polyethylene glycol and RGD peptide to improve biocompatibility as well as selectivity toward the HCC cells. Au@PDA-RGD NPs showed an intense absorption at 822 nm, which makes them suitable for near-infrared-excited PTT. Our results indicated that the Au@PDA-RGD NPs were effective for the PTT therapy of the αVβ3 integrin receptor-overexpressed HepG2 cells in vitro. Further antitumor mechanism studies showed that the Au@PDA-RGD NPs-based PTT induced human liver cancer cells death via the mitochondrial–lysosomal and autophagy pathways. In vivo experiments showed that Au@PDA-RGD NPs had excellent tumor treatment efficiency and negligible side effects. Thus, our study showed that Au@PDA-RGD NPs could offer an excellent nanoplatform for PTT of HCC.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a universal heterogeneous disease that is characterized by genetic and epigenetic alterations. Immunotherapy using monoclonal antibodies (mAb) and cancer vaccines are substitute strategies for CRC treatment. When cancer immunotherapy is combined with chemotherapy, surgery, and radiotherapy, the CRC treatment would become excessively efficient. One of the compelling immunotherapy approaches to increase the efficiency of CRC therapy is the deployment of therapeutic mAbs, nanobodies, bi-specific antibodies and cancer vaccines, which improve clinical outcomes in patients. Also, among the possible therapeutic approaches for CRC patients, gene vaccines in combination with antibodies are recently introduced as a new perspective. Here, we aimed to present the current progress in CRC immunotherapy, especially using Bi-specific antibodies and dendritic cells mRNA vaccines. For this aim, all data were extracted from Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, and Elsevier, using keywords cancer vaccines; CRC immunotherapy and CRC mRNA vaccines. About 97 articles were selected and investigated completely based on the latest developments and novelties on bi-specific antibodies, mRNA vaccines, nanobodies, and MGD007.

Abstract
The surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique, that uses magnetic plasmonic particles (MPPs), is an advanced SERS detection platform owing to the synergetic effects of the particles’ magnetic and plasmonic properties. As well as being an ultrasensitive and reliable SERS material, MPPs perform various functions, such as aiding in separation, drug delivery, and acting as a therapeutic material. This literature discusses the structure and multifunctionality of MPPs, which has enabled the novel application of MPPs to various biological fields.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recent statistics have reported colorectal cancer (CRC) as the second leading cause of cancer-associated deaths in the world. Early diagnosis of CRC may help to reduce the mortality and associated complications. However, the conventional diagnostic techniques often lead to misdiagnosis, fail to differentiate benign from malignant tissue or diagnose only at an advanced stage. For the treatment of CRC, surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiotherapy have been employed. However, the quality of living of the CRC patients is highly compromised after employing current therapeutic approaches owing to the toxicity issues and relapse. AREA COVERED This review accentuates the molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis, stages of CRC, conventional approaches for diagnosis and therapy of CRC and the issues confronted thereby. It provides an outlook on the advantages of employing nanotechnology-based approaches for prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of CRC. EXPERT OPINION Employing nanotechnology-based approaches has demonstrated promising outcomes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of CRC.

Lu J, Cai L, Dai Y, Liu Y, Zuo F, Ni C, Shi M, Li J. Polydopamine-Based Nanoparticles for Photothermal Therapy/Chemotherapy and their Synergistic Therapy with Autophagy Inhibitor to Promote Antitumor Treatment. CHEM REC 2021; 21:781-796. [PMID: 33634962 DOI: 10.1002/tcr.202000170] [Citation(s) in RCA: 59] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2020] [Revised: 01/20/2021] [Accepted: 01/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) has attracted much attention recently due to its strong adhesion capability to most substrates. After combining with organic (such as organic metal framework, micelles, hydrogel, polypeptide copolymer) or inorganic nanomaterials (such as gold, silicon, carbon), polydopamine-based nanoparticles (PDA NPs) exhibit the merging of characteristics. Until now, the preparation methods, polymerization mechanism, and photothermal therapy (PTT) or chemotherapy (CT) applications of PDA NPs have been reported detailly. Since the PTT or CT treatment process is often accompanied by exogenous stimuli, tumor cells usually induce pro-survival autophagy to protect the cells from further damage, which will weaken the therapeutic effect. Therefore, an in-depth understanding of PDA NPs modulated PTT, CT, and autophagy is required. However, this association is rarely reviewed. Herein, we briefly described the relationship between PTT/CT, autophagy, and tumor treatment. Then, the outstanding performances of PDA NPs in PTT/CT and their combination with autophagy inhibitors for tumor synergistic therapy have been summarized. This work is expected to shed light on the multi-strategy antitumor therapy applications of PDA NPs.

Abstract
Photothermal immunotherapy has emerged as one of the most potent approaches for cancer treatment, but this strategy has suffered from the lack of biodegradability of the photoresponsive materials. In this study, we aimed to develop biodegradable materials for photothermal immunotherapy. To this end, we designed a DNA CpG hydrogel (DH, generated by rolling-circle amplification), loaded it with bis-(3'-5')-cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (G/DH), and coated the formulation with melanin (Mel/G/DH). Mel/G/DH exhibited a temperature increase upon near infrared (NIR) illumination. In vitro, Mel/G/DH plus NIR (808 nm) irradiation, induced the exposure of calreticulin on CT26 cancer cells, and significantly activated the maturation of dendritic cells (DC). In vivo, local administration of Mel/G/DH (+NIR) exerted photothermal killing of primary tumors and induced maturation of DC in lymph nodes. Treatment of primary tumors with Mel/G/DH(+NIR) prevented the growth of rechallenged tumors at a distant site. Survival was 100% in mice treated with Mel/G/DH(+NIR), 5-fold higher than the group treated with Mel/G(+NIR). Mel/G/DH(+NIR) treatment remodeled the immune microenvironment of distant tumors, increasing cytotoxic T cells and decreasing Treg cells. Taken together, the results of this study suggest the potential of Mel/G/DH as a platform for modulating tumor immune microenvironment aimed at preventing the recurrence of distant tumors.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) represent one of the most explored categories of nanomaterials for new and improved biomaterials and biotechnologies, with impressive use in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry, anti-infective therapy and wound care, food and the textile industry. Their extensive and versatile applicability relies on the genuine and easy-tunable properties of nanosilver, including remarkable physicochemical behavior, exceptional antimicrobial efficiency, anti-inflammatory action and antitumor activity. Besides commercially available and clinically safe AgNPs-based products, a substantial number of recent studies assessed the applicability of nanosilver as therapeutic agents in augmented and alternative strategies for cancer therapy, sensing and diagnosis platforms, restorative and regenerative biomaterials. Given the beneficial interactions of AgNPs with living structures and their nontoxic effects on healthy human cells, they represent an accurate candidate for various biomedical products. In the present review, the most important and recent applications of AgNPs in biomedical products and biomedicine are considered.

Abstract
As well as the exploration of translatable delivery nanosystems for cancer therapeutic agents, the development of automatable continuous-flow manufacturing technology comprising digitally controlled reactions for the on-demand production of pharmaceuticals is an important challenge in anticancer nanomedicine. Most attempts to resolve these issues have involved the development of alternative reactions, formulations, or constructs containing stimulus components aimed at producing multiple approaches for highly efficacious combination cancer therapies. However, there has been no report of a platform based on plug-in execution that enables continuous-flow manufacture in a compact, reconfigurable manner, although an optimal platform technology may be a prerequisite for the timely translation of recently developed nanomedicines. To this end, we describe the development of a platform toward digitizable, continuous manufacture by a serial combination of plug-in reactionwares (heating plates, a spraying cup, and a photochamber) for single-pass flow fabrication. Specifically, we fabricated three different composite nanoblocks consisting of Au1Ag9 (<8 nm; stimulus component), docetaxel (an anticancer drug), and bovine serum albumin (a protective and targeting agent) using our system, with the result of producing nanoblocks with photothermally modulatable and structurally disintegratable properties. These were examined for effectiveness in near-infrared-induced chemothermal cancer therapy and renal excretion of Au1Ag9 particles and exhibited high anticancer efficacy and warrantable biosafety.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Advanced nanomaterials have emerged as effective approaches to liver cancer therapy such as photothermal therapy. However, limited penetration depth of photothermal agents (PTAs) activated in the NIR-I bio-window and thermoresistance due to heat shock proteins restrict the therapeutic efficacy of PTT in HCC. Herein, we prepared a Bi@ZIF-8 (BZ) nanomaterial by a simple one-step reduction method. Then, gambogic acid, a natural inhibitor of Hsp90, was efficiently loaded onto the BZ nanomaterial via physical mixing. The characterization of the nanomaterial and release of GA due to pH change or NIR-light irradiation were separately studied. Photothermal conversion efficiency was calculated, and therapeutic studies were carried out in vitro and in vivo. This nanomaterial exhibited a significantly enhanced drug release rate when the temperature was increased under acidic conditions and had good light stability under laser irradiation and a photothermal conversion efficiency of about 24.4%. In addition, this novel nanomaterial achieved good therapeutic effects with less toxicity in vitro. The BZ nanomaterial loaded with GA caused tumor shrinkage as well as disappearance and effectively downregulated Hsp90 expression in tumors in vivo. Moreover, this novel nanomaterial exhibited good biocompatibility and potential for application in low-temperature PTT with excellent tumor destruction efficacy.

Abstract
Many tumors develop resistance to most of the apoptosis-based cancer therapies. In this sense targeting non-apoptotic forms of cell death including necroptosis, autophagy and ferroptosis may have therapeutic benefits in apoptosis-defective cancer cells. Nanomaterials have shown great advantages in cancer treatment owing to their unique characteristics. Besides, the capability of nanomaterials to induce different forms of cell death has gained widespread attention in cancer treatment. Reports in this field reflect the therapeutic potential of necroptotic cell death induced by nanomaterials in cancer. Also, autophagic cell death induced by nanomaterials alone and as a part of chemo-, radio- and photothermal therapy holds great promise as anticancer therapeutic option. Besides, ferroptosis induction by iron-based nanomaterials in drug delivery, immunotherapy, hyperthermia and imaging systems shows promising results in malignancies. Hence, this review is devoted to the latest efforts and the challenges in this field of research and its clinical merits.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. Its poor response to current treatment options in advanced stages and the need for efficient diagnosis in early stages call for the development of new therapeutic and diagnostic strategies. Some of them are based on the use of nanometric materials as carriers and releasers of therapeutic agents and fluorescent molecules, or even on the utilization of magnetic materials that provide very interesting properties. These nanoformulations present several advantages compared with the free molecular cargo, including increased drug solubility, bioavailability, stability, and tumor specificity. Moreover, tumor multidrug resistance has been decreased in some cases, leading to improved treatment effectiveness by reducing drug dose and potential side effects. Here, we present an updated overview of the latest advances in clinical research, in vivo studies, and patents regarding the application of nanoformulations in the treatment of CRC. Based on the information gathered, a wide variety of nanomaterials are being investigated in clinical research, even in advanced phases, i.e., close to reaching the market. In sum, these novel materials can offer remarkable advantages with respect to current therapies, which could be complemented or even replaced by these nanosystems in the near future.

Abstract
Various types of photodynamic agents have been explored for photodynamic therapy (PDT) to destroy cancers located in deep tissues. However, these agents are generally limited by low singlet oxygen (1O2) yields owing to weak absorption in the optical transparent window of biological tissues. Accordingly, in this work, we developed a nanocomposite through the assembly of gold nanobipyramids (GNBPs) on black phosphorus nanosheets (BPNSs). This nanocomposite could simultaneously enhance 1O2 generation and hyperthermia by localized surface plasmon resonance in cancer therapy. As two-dimensional inorganic photosensitizers, BPNSs were hybridized with GNBPs to form BPNS-GNBP hybrid nanosheets. The hybridization markedly increased 1O2 production by the BPNSs through plasmon-enhanced light absorption. The nanocomposite exhibited a higher photothermal conversion efficiency than the BPNSs alone. In vitro and in vivo assays indicated that the BPNS-GNBP hybrid nanocomposite exhibited good tumor inhibition efficacy owing to simultaneous dual-modality phototherapy. In vivo, the nanocomposite suppressed deep-seated tumor growth with minimal adverse effects in mice bearing orthotopic A549 human lung tumors. Taken together, these results demonstrated that our BPNS-GNBP nanocomposite could function as a promising dual-modality phototherapeutic agent for enhanced cancer therapy in future cancer treatments. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In this study, we established a new nanocomposite by assembly of gold nanobipyramids (GNBPs) on black phosphorus nanosheets (BPNSs). Characterization of this nanocomposite showed that BPNS-GNBP enhanced 1O2 generation and hyperthermia. BPNS-GNBP exhibited good tumor inhibition efficacy in vivo and in vitro owing to simultaneous dual-modal phototherapy functions. Moreover, BPNS-GNBP suppressed deep-seated tumor growth in vivo and did not show adverse effects in mice bearing orthotopic A549 human lung tumors. Overall, these results showed that BPNS-GNBP may be used as a promising dual-modal phototherapeutic agent for enhanced cancer therapy in future clinical applications.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has recently emerged as a promising treatment for cancer due to the high specificity of CDT towards tumor microenvironment (TME). However, the low efficiency of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and the robust ROS defensive mechanisms in cancer cells remain critical hurdles for current CDT. Addressing both challenges in a single platform, we developed a novel redox and light-responsive (RLR) nanoparticle with a core-shell structure. Remarkably, our hierarchical RLR nanoparticle is composed of an ultrasmall Fe3O4 nanoparticle engineered framework of hollow carbon matrix core and a nanoflower-like MnO2 shell. Under the abundant overexpressed glutathione (GSH) and acidic nature in TME, the RLR nanoparticle was programmed to degrade and self-activate CDT-induced cancer-killing by accelerating ROS generation via overcoming the ROS defensive mechanisms based on the depletion of intracellular GSH, the sequential production of theranostic ion species (e.g., Mn2+ and Fe2+), a spatiotemporal controllable photothermal hyperthermia and a redox triggered chemotherapeutic drug release. Additionally, the carbon framework of RLR nanoparticle could collapse by leaching of iron ions. An excellent selective and near-complete tumor suppression based on the RLR nanoparticles through a strong synergy between CDT, PTT and anti-cancer drugs was demonstrated via in vitro and in vivo anti-tumoral assays.

Abstract
As a mussel-inspired material, polydopamine (PDA), possesses many properties, such as a simple preparation process, good biocompatibility, strong adhesive property, easy functionalization, outstanding photothermal conversion efficiency, and strong quenching effect. PDA has attracted increasingly considerable attention because it provides a simple and versatile approach to functionalize material surfaces for obtaining a variety of multifunctional nanomaterials. In this review, recent significant research developments of PDA including its synthesis and polymerization mechanism, physicochemical properties, different nano/microstructures, and diverse applications are summarized and discussed. For the sections of its applications in surface modification and biomedicine, we mainly highlight the achievements in the past few years (2016-2019). The remaining challenges and future perspectives of PDA-based nanoplatforms are discussed rationally at the end. This timely and overall review should be desirable for a wide range of scientists and facilitate further development of surface coating methods and the production of PDA-based materials.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are promising nanomaterials for various biomedical applications owing to their remarkable optical properties and biocompatibility. However, their interfacial properties require modification for practical use in such applications. Herein, a simple method for modifying the surface of GNPs with polydopamine (PDA) to serve as a scaffold for the subsequent polymerization of hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG) is reported. GNPs were first coated with PDA (GNP-PDA), and then ring-opening chemistry was used at this interface to modify GNP-PDA with HPG (GNP-PDA-HPG). The produced GNP-PDA-HPG shows not only excellent dispersibility in a salt-containing solution but also strong resistance to aggregation in high- and low-pH solutions, even after 10 days. Moreover, we demonstrate a one-pot method for functionalizing GNP-PDA with HPG and either COOH or trimethylammonium. Finally, we conjugated the trimethylammonium-functionalized GNP-PDA-HPG with fluorescent nanodiamonds to investigate the photothermal ability of the functional GNPs.
