Abstract
Phosphorescence, characterized by luminescent lifetimes significantly longer than that of biological autofluorescence under ambient environment, is of great value for biomedical applications. Academic evidence of fluorescence imaging indicates that virtually all imaging metrics (sensitivity, resolution, and penetration depths) are improved when progressing into longer wavelength regions, especially the recently reported second near-infrared (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) window. Although the emission wavelength of probes does matter, it is not clear whether the guideline of "the longer the wavelength, the better the imaging effect" is still suitable for developing phosphorescent probes. For tissue-specific bioimaging, long-lived probes, even if they emit visible phosphorescence, enable accurate visualization of large deep tissues. For studies dealing with bioimaging of tiny biological architectures or dynamic physiopathological activities, the prerequisite is rigorous planning of long-wavelength phosphorescence, being aware of the cooperative contribution of long wavelengths and long lifetimes for improving the spatiotemporal resolution, penetration depth, and sensitivity of bioimaging. In this Review, emerging molecular engineering methods of room-temperature phosphorescence are discussed through the lens of photophysical mechanisms. We highlight the roles of phosphorescence with emission from visible to NIR-II windows toward bioapplications. To appreciate such advances, challenges and prospects in rapidly growing studies of room-temperature phosphorescence are described.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 251:126337. [PMID: 37586620 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/12/2023] [Indexed: 08/18/2023]
Abstract
Thermo-/pH-sensitive nanocomposites based on mesoporous silicate MCM-41 (MSNCs) derived from rice husk ash were synthesized and characterized. MSNCs were coated with thermo-/pH-sensitive Pluronic® F127 and gelatin to form MSNCs@gp nanocomposites, serving as carriers for controlled release of the anticancer drug doxorubicin (Dox). The in vitro and in vivo antitumor efficacy of MSNCs@gp-Dox against liver cancer was evaluated. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectra confirmed the silica nature of MSNCs@gp by detecting the Si-O-Si group. Under acidic microenvironments (pH 5.4) and 42 °C, MSNCs@gp-Dox exhibited significantly higher Dox release (47.33 %) compared to physiological conditions. Thermo-/pH-sensitive drug release (47.33 %) was observed in simulated tumor environments. The Makoid-Banakar model provided the best fit at pH 7.4 and 37 °C with a mean squared error of 0.4352, an Akaike Information Criterion of 15.00, and a regression coefficient of 0.9972. Cytotoxicity tests have demonstrated no significant toxicity in HepG2 cells treated with various concentrations of MSNCs@gp, while MSNCs@gp-Dox induced considerable cell apoptosis. In vivo studies in nude mice revealed effective suppression of liver cancer growth by MSNCs@gp-Dox, indicating high pharmaceutical efficacy. The investigated MSNCs@gp-based drug delivery system shows promise for liver cancer therapy, offering enhanced treatment efficiency with minimal side effects.

Abstract
A type of MCM-41 supported dicationic imidazolium ionic liquid nanocatalyst has been synthesized and found to be competent for the synthesis of 2-oxazolidinones through the sustainable chemical conversion of CO2 with aziridines. It was shown that the highest efficiency was achieved in the cycloaddition of a series of aziridines and CO2 in the presence of a catalytic amount of the solid catalyst MCM-41@ILLaCl4 under mild conditions. Merits of this meticulously designed protocol are the use of a novel supported ionic liquid catalyst, the easy work-up process, good to excellent yields, a short reaction time, and purification without column chromatography. Overall, the present protocol of synthesizing 2-oxazolidinones under cocatalyst- and solvent-free conditions using MCM-41@ILLaCl4 is promising for industrial applications.

Abstract
This review is dedicated to various functional nanoarchitectonic nanocomposites based on molecular octahedral metal atom clusters (Nb6, Mo6, Ta6, W6, Re6). Powder and film nanocomposites with two-dimensional, one-dimensional and zero-dimensional morphologies are presented, as well as film matrices from organic polymers to inorganic layered oxides. The high potential and synergetic effects of these nanocomposites for biotechnology applications, photovoltaic, solar control, catalytic, photonic and sensor applications are demonstrated. This review also provides a basic level of understanding how nanocomposites are characterized and processed using different techniques and methods. The main objective of this review would be to provide guiding significance for the design of new high-performance nanocomposites based on transition metal atom clusters.
