Abstract
To facilitate the understanding of the dynamic distribution and activity of lysosomal enzymes, it is highly desirable to develop high-fidelity near-infrared (NIR) activatable fluorescent probes. Here, we propose a general acceptor engineering strategy to construct NIR probes with lysosome-targeting capability. Upon isosteric replacement and additional functionalization, the β-gal-activatable probe OELyso-Gal exhibited excellent lysosome-targeting capability and favorable responsive performance to the enzyme of interest. Notably, the steric hindrance effect from acceptor engineering is modest, which renders the probe unprecedented affinity to enzymes. Upon the introduction of acceptor engineering, the lysosome-targeting probe became more sensitive to β-gal in cells and tissues, boosting the discrimination of high β-gal-expressing ovarian cancer tumours from low β-gal-expressing tissues. Furthermore, the superiority of OELyso-Gal was validated in real-time visualization of ovarian cancer in tumour-bearing mice. This elegant acceptor engineering strategy provides inspirational insights into the development of customized fluorescent probes for monitoring disease-associated biomarkers within subcellular organelles.

Adv Drug Deliv Rev 2022; 183:114177.

Abstract
As immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducers initiating antitumor immune responses, certain chemotherapeutic drugs have shown considerable potential to reverse the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (ITM) into immune-responsive tumors. The application of these drugs in nanomedicine provides a more enhanced therapeutic index by improving unfavorable pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles and inefficient tumor targeting. However, the clinical translation of conventional nanoparticles is restricted by fundamental problems, such as risks of immunogenicity and potential toxicity by carrier materials, premature drug leakage in off-target sites during circulation, low drug loading contents, and complex structure and synthetic processes that hinder quality control (QC) and scale-up industrial production. To address these limitations, tumor-activated carrier-free prodrug nanoparticles (PDNPs), constructed only by the self-assembly of prodrugs without any additional carrier materials, have been widely investigated with distinct advantages for safe and more effective drug delivery. In addition, combination immunotherapy based on PDNPs with other diverse modalities has efficiently reversed the ITM to immune-responsive tumors, potentiating the response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. In this review, the trends and advances in PDNPs are outlined, and each self-assembly mechanism is discussed. In addition, various combination immunotherapies based on PDNPs are reviewed. Finally, a physical tumor microenvironment remodeling strategy to maximize the potential of PDNPs, and key considerations for clinical translation are highlighted.

Abstract
Most anticancer drugs, particularly paclitaxel (PTX), are suffering the challenges of cancer chemotherapy due to their poor water-solubility, high toxicity under effective therapeutic dosages, and multi-drug resistance. Currently, nanoscale drug delivery systems (DDSs) represent an efficient platform to overcome the above challenges. However, those DDSs generally need a careful design of conjugation, complexation, or co-self-assembly. Herein, a facile out-of-the-box nanocapsule is developed not only to be easily packed with on-demand hydrophobic anticancer drugs (up to 76% of loading efficiency for PTX), but also to be loaded with other concomitant drugs for synergy therapy (Itraconazole (ITA) here as P-glycoprotein inhibitor for drug resistance and antiangiogenic agent for combination therapy with PTX). Three kinds of biocompatible poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylates (PEGDM) derivatives usually as cross-linking agents are selected and successfully constructed adequate nanocapsules with single monomer as shell materials. More importantly, as-prepared nanocapsules have abilities of esterase triggering and lung targeting. Both in vitro and in vivo studies showed that the drug-loaded nanocapsules can effectively inhibit tumor growth and vascular proliferation in PTX-resistant tumor models without apparent systemic toxicity. The above results demonstrate that the nanocapsule system provides an effective and universal strategy for lung targeting, esterase triggering, and synergy therapy.

Gold nanoparticles synergize with bacterial lipopolysaccharide to enhance class A scavenger receptor dependent particle uptake in neutrophils and augment neutrophil extracellular traps formation. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2021; 211:111900.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are extensively utilized in biomedical fields. However, their potential interaction with host cells has not been comprehensively elucidated. In this study, we demonstrated a size-dependent effect of AuNPs to synergize with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in promoting neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) release in human peripheral neutrophils. Mechanistically, LPS was more efficient to contact with 10 nm AuNPs and promote their uptake in neutrophils compared to 40 and 100 nm AuNPs, leading to a synergistic upregulation of class A scavenger receptor (SRA) which mediated AuNPs uptake and triggered activation of extracellular regulated protein kinase (ERK) and p38. Blocking SRA or inhibiting ERK and p38 activation remarkably abrogated the effect of AuNPs and LPS to induce NETs formation. Further experiments demonstrated that AuNPs and LPS augmented the production of cytosolic reactive oxygen species (ROS) in p38 and ERK dependent manner, through upregulating and activating NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2). Accordingly, scavenging of ROS or inhibiting the NOX2 dampened NETs release induced by combined AuNPs and LPS treatment. AuNPs and LPS also synergized to upregulate reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (ROMO1) via activating ERK, thereby increasing mitochondrial ROS generation and promoting the release of NETs. In summary, we provide new evidences about the synergy of AuNPs and LPS to augment cellular responses in neutrophils, which implicates the need to consider the amplifying effect by pathogenic stimuli when utilizing nanomaterials in infectious or inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Nanoparticles have been developed for tumor treatment due to the enhanced permeability and retention effects. However, lack of specific cancer cells selectivity results in low delivery efficiency and undesired side effects. In that case, the stimuli-responsive nanoparticles system designed for the specific structure and physicochemical properties of tumors have attracted more and more attention of researchers. Esterase-responsive nanoparticle system is widely used due to the overexpressed esterase in tumor cells. For a rational designed esterase-responsive nanoparticle, ester bonds and nanoparticle structures are the key characters. In this review, we overviewed the design of esterase-responsive nanoparticles, including ester bonds design and nano-structure design, and analyzed the fitness of each design for different application. In the end, the outlook of esterase-responsive nanoparticle is looking forward.

Abstract
Lysosome visualization is very important for accurate diagnosis of human diseases. However, currently developed lysosome imaging probes usually have poor specificity and are easily quenched, leading to a low signal to noise ratio in lysosome labeling. To resolve this problem, herein, metal-organic framework-based probes of copper-terephthalic acid (CuBDC) are investigated, which show sensitivity to pH and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), simultaneously. By self-assembling under the template effect of soluble starch, the particle size of CuBDC can be well controlled for entering into cells and locating lysosomes. Based on the Fenton-like reaction, CuBDC can catalyze the decomposition of H2O2 into ˙OH, which in turn reacts with CuBDC to generate a stable fluorescent substance. Meanwhile, Cu2+ can be released from CuBDC under acidic conditions for reacting with H2O2 more thoroughly. And the synthesized CuBDC has a similar attraction to the electrophilic ˙OH at different pH values owing to the residual soluble starch in the particles. The above properties cause CuBDC to have a stable fluorescence signal with low pH values and high H2O2 concentration, simultaneously. The fluorescence imaging experiments in HeLa cells demonstrate that CuBDC acting as a pH/H2O2 responsive fluorescent probe holds great promise for lysosome-specific imaging.

Abstract
Background Apolipoprotein A-II (ApoA-II) is down regulated in the sera of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients, which may be due to increase utilization of high density lipoprotein (HDL) lipid by pancreatic cancer tissue. This study examined the influence of exogenous ApoA-II on lipid uptake and cell growth in pancreatic cancer (PC) both in vitro and in vivo. Methods Cryo transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examined ApoA-II’s influence on morphology of SMOFLipid emulsion. The influence of ApoA-II on proliferation of cancer cell lines was determined by incubating them with lipid+/-ApoA-II and anti-SR-B1 antibody. Lipid was labeled with the fluorophore, DiD, to trace lipid uptake by cancer cells in vitro by confocal microscopy and in vivo in PDAC patient derived xenograft tumours (PDXT) by fluorescence imaging. Scavenger receptor class B type-1(SR-B1) expression in PDAC cell lines and in PDAC PDXT was measured by western blotting and immunohistochemistry, respectively. Results ApoA-II spontaneously converted lipid emulsion into very small unilamellar rHDL like vesicles (rHDL/A-II) and enhanced lipid uptake in PANC-1, CFPAC-1 and primary tumour cells as shown by confocal microscopy. SR-B1 expression was 13.2, 10.6, 3.1 and 2.3 fold higher in PANC-1, MIAPaCa-2, CFPAC-1 and BxPC3 cell lines than the normal pancreatic cell line (HPDE6) and 3.7 fold greater in PDAC tissue than in normal pancreas. ApoA-II plus lipid significantly increased the uptake of labeled lipid and promoted cell growth in PANC-1, MIAPaCa-2, CFPAC-1 and BxPC3 cells which was inhibited by anti SR-B1 antibody. Further, ApoA-II increased the uptake of lipid in xenografts by 3.4 fold. Conclusion Our data suggest that ApoA-II enhance targeting potential of lipid in pancreatic cancer which may have imaging and drug delivery potentialities.

Abstract
The development of multifunctional nanoparticles has attracted increasing attention. The versatility of nanoparticles largely depends on their physiochemical properties (especially size). However, the optimized size range may be different for the bioapplications of each function associated with multifunctional nanoparticles. It is important to investigate every optimized size range to ascertain which size enables the best function of the nanoparticles before deciding their final size. In this work, we synthesized a series of monodisperse Fe3O4 nanoparticles with identical surface properties ranging in size from 60 to 310 nm and systematically investigated their biobehavior and application. Our data indicate that compared to their large counterparts, small Fe3O4 nanoparticles exhibited greater cellular internalization and deeper penetration into multicellular spheroids, thus enabling a higher photothermal ablation efficacy in vitro. Interestingly, larger Fe3O4 nanoparticles showed greater accumulation in tumors, thereby inducing more efficient tumor growth inhibition. In addition, 120 nm may be the optimal diameter of Fe3O4 nanoparticles for magnetic resonance imaging and photoacoustic tomography in vitro. However, more efficient in vivo imaging mediated by Fe3O4 nanoparticles will predominantly depend on their high accumulation. Our work presents a different appropriate size range for each biofunction of Fe3O4 nanoparticles, which could be a valuable reference for future nanoparticle design.

Abstract
A biological system is essentially an elegant assembly of polymeric nanostructures. The polymers in the body, biomacromolecules, are both building blocks and versatile messengers. We propose that non-biologically derived polymers can be potential therapeutic candidates with unique advantages. Emerging findings about polycations, polysaccharides, immobilised multivalent ligands, and biomolecular coronas provide evidence that polymers are activated at the nano-bio interface, while emphasising the current theoretical and practical challenges. Our increasing understanding of the nano-bio interface and evolving approaches to establish the therapeutic potential of polymers enable the development of polymer drugs with high specificities for broad applications.
