A mesoporous theranostic platform for ultrasound and photoacoustic dual imaging-guided photothermal and enhanced starvation therapy for cancer. Acta Biomater 2024:S1742-7061(24)00279-4. [PMID: 38815685 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.05.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
Tumor starvation therapy utilizing glucose oxidase (GOx), has gained traction due to its non-invasive and bio-safe attributes. However, its effectiveness is often hampered by severe hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment (TME), limiting GOx's catalytic activity. To address this issue, a multifunctional nanosystem based on mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs) was developled to alleviate TME hypoxia. This nanosystem integrated GOx modification and oxygenated perfluoropentane (PFP) encapsulation to address hypoxia-related challenges in the TME. Under NIR laser irradiation, the MPDA NPs exhibit significant photothermal conversion efficacy, activating targeted tumor photothermal therapy (PTT), while also serving as proficient photoacoustic (PA) imaging agents. The ensuing temperature rise facilitates oxygen (O2) release and induces liquid-gas conversion of PFP, generating microbubbles for enhanced ultrasound (US) imaging signals. The supplied oxygen alleviates local hypoxia, thereby enhancing GOx-mediated endogenous glucose consumption for tumor starvation. Overall, the integration of ultrasound/photoacoustic dual imaging-guided PTT and starvation therapy within MPDA-GOx@PFP@O2 nanoparticles (MGPO NPs) presents a promising platform for enhancing the efficacay of tumor treatment by overcoming the complexities of the TME. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A multifunctional MPDA-based theranostic nanoagent was developed for US/PAI imaging-guided PTT and starvation therapy against tumor hypoxia by direct O2 delivery. The incorporation of oxygenated perfluoropentane (PFP) within the mesoporous structure of MGPO not only enables efficient US imaging but also helps in alleviating tumor hypoxia. Moreover, the strong near-infrared (NIR) absorption of MGPO NPs promote the generation of PFP microbubbles and release of oxygen, thereby enhancing US imaging and GOx-mediated starvation therapy. Such a multifunctional nanosystem leverages synergistic effects to enhance therapeutic efficacy while incorporating US/PA imaging for precise visualization of the tumor.

Abstract
Melanoma, a highly aggressive skin tumor, exhibits notable features including heterogeneity, a high mutational load, and innate immune escape. Despite advancements in melanoma treatment, current immunotherapies fail to fully exploit the immune system's maximum potential. Activating immunogenic cell death (ICD) holds promise in enhancing tumor cell immunogenicity, stimulating immune amplification response, improving drug sensitivity, and eliminating tumors. Nanotechnology-enabled ICD has emerged as a compelling therapeutic strategy for augmenting cancer immunotherapy. Nanoparticles possess versatile attributes, such as prolonged blood circulation, stability, and tumor-targeting capabilities, rendering them ideal for drug delivery. In this review, we elucidate the mechanisms underlying ICD induction and associated therapeutic strategies. Additionally, we provide a concise overview of the immune stress response associated with ICD and explore the potential synergistic benefits of combining ICD induction methods with the utilization of nanocarriers.

Pathologically catalyzed physical coating restores the intestinal barrier for inflammatory bowel disease therapy. J Nanobiotechnology 2023; 21:444.

Abstract
Intestinal epithelia impairment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) leads to the leakage of bacteria and antigens and the consequent persistent immune imbalance. Restoring the epithelial barrier is a promising therapeutic target but lacks effective and safe clinical interventions. By identifying the catalase (CAT) presence in the IBD pathological environment, we herein develop a CAT-catalyzed pathologically coating on the damaged epithelial barrier to inhibit intestinal leakage for IBD therapy. With the codelivery of CaO2 (a CAT substrate) and dopamine, the nanosystem can enable CAT-catalyzed oxygen (O2) production and in-situ polymerization of dopamine and then yield a thin and integrative polydopamine (PDA) coating on the intestinal barrier due to the highly adhesive property of PDA. In vivo study demonstrates that PDA coating provides not only a protective barrier by restricting intestinal leakage but also a favorable anti-inflammation effect. Beyond drug management, this work provides a physical repair strategy via catalyzed coating for IBD therapy.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is lethal cerebrovascular disease, and reperfusion as the main strategy of blood supply restoration can cause severe ischemic brain damage. Considered as the major obstacle in medication for stroke, neuroinflammation after reperfusion undergoes dynamic progression, making precision treatment for stroke a Herculean task. In this work, we report a pathogenesis-adaptive polydopamine nanosystem for sequential therapy of ischemic stroke. Intrinsic free radical scavenging and tailored mesostructure of the nanosystem can attenuate oxidative stress at the initial stage. Upon microglial overactivation at the later stage, minocycline-loaded nanosystem can timely reverse the pro-inflammatory transition in response to activated matrix metalloproteinase-2, providing on-demand regulation. Further in vivo stroke study demonstrates a higher survival rate and improved brain recovery of the sequential strategy, compared with mono-therapy and combined therapy. Complemented with satisfactory biosafety results, this adaptive nanosystem for sequential and on-demand regulation of post-stroke neuroinflammation is a promising approach to ischemic stroke therapy.

Abstract
Diabetic wound healing has become a serious healthcare challenge. The high-glucose environment leads to persistent bacterial infection and mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in chronic inflammation, abnormal vascular function, and tissue necrosis. To solve these issues, we developed a double-network hydrogel, constructed with pluronic F127 diacrylate (F127DA) and hyaluronic acid methacrylate (HAMA), and enhanced by SS31-loaded mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs). As components, SS31, a mitochondria-targeted peptide, maintains mitochondrial function, reduces mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and thus regulates macrophage polarization, as well as promoting cell proliferation and migration, while MPDA NPs not only scavenge ROS and exert an anti-bacterial effect by photothermal treatment under near-infrared light irradiation, but also control release of SS31 in response to ROS. This F127DA/HAMA-MPDA@SS31 (FH-M@S) hydrogel has characteristics of adhesion, superior biocompatibility and mechanical properties which can adapt to irregular wounds at different body sites and provide sustained release of MPDA@SS31 (M@S) NPs. In addition, in a diabetic rat full thickness skin defect model, the FH-M@S hydrogel promoted macrophage M2 polarization, collagen deposition, neovascularization and wound healing. Therefore, the FH-M@S hydrogel exhibits promising therapeutic potential for skin regeneration.

Abstract
Postoperative recurrence frequently occurs in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) due to residual microtumors and host cellular immune dysfunction, leading to major setbacks in clinical outcomes and CRC staging. As an increasingly prevalent therapeutic option for CRC patients, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy bears unmet challenges of limited tumor targeting and common side effects of gastrointestinal reaction and radiodermatitis. It is highly desirable to develop neoadjuvant treatment paradigms that impart both tumor-targeting accuracy and protection against recurrence of resectable CRC. Here we report a versatile photo-regulated nanoagonist of plasmonic gold blackbody (AuPB) with a polydopamine (PDA) coating carrying manganese ion (Mn2+) payloads (AuPB@PDA/Mn). When armed with second near-infrared (NIR-II) light, AuPB@PDA/Mn with broad-band localized surface plasmon resonance generates local hyperthermia and discharges Mn2+ ions, which evidently amplify the effects of immunogenic cell death in tumor cells and activate the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase/stimulator of interferon genes pathway in dendritic cells (DCs), hence potentiating the maturation of DC and the secretion of type I interferon in a synergistic way. Matured DCs undertake the task of tumor antigen presentation as the crosstalk to adaptive immunity. As such, the administration of AuPB@PDA/Mn coupled with NIR-II laser irradiation has eminently augmented the infiltration of CD8+ T cells as well as the development of memory CD8+ T cells in colorectal tumor models, substantiating enhanced immunomodulatory efficacy against primary and recurrent CRC. Our strategy highlights the potency of an integrated NIR-II photothermal and immunoregulatory modality by photo-activate delivery of Mn2+ ions, as a neoadjuvant paradigm for presurgical tumor debulking and against postoperative tumor recurrence.

Abstract
A unique feature of nanoparticles for bio-application is the ease of achieving multi-functionality through covalent and non-covalent functionalization. In this way, multiple therapeutic actions, including chemical, photothermal and photodynamic activity, can be combined with different bio-imaging modalities, such as magnetic resonance, photoacoustic, and fluorescence imaging, in a theragnostic approach. In this context, melanin-related nanomaterials possess unique features since they are intrinsically biocompatible and, due to their optical and electronic properties, are themselves very efficient photothermal agents, efficient antioxidants, and photoacoustic contrast agents. Moreover, these materials present a unique versatility of functionalization, which makes them ideal for the design of multifunctional platforms for nanomedicine integrating new functions such as drug delivery and controlled release, gene therapy, or contrast ability in magnetic resonance and fluorescence imaging. In this review, the most relevant and recent examples of melanin-based multi-functionalized nanosystems are discussed, highlighting the different methods of functionalization and, in particular, distinguishing pre-functionalization and post-functionalization. In the meantime, the properties of melanin coatings employable for the functionalization of a variety of material substrates are also briefly introduced, especially in order to explain the origin of the versatility of melanin functionalization. In the final part, the most relevant critical issues related to melanin functionalization that may arise during the design of multifunctional melanin-like nanoplatforms for nanomedicine and bio-application are listed and discussed.

Abstract
As adjuvants or antigens, bacterial membranes have been widely used in recent antibacterial and antitumor research, but they are often injected multiple times to achieve therapeutic outcomes, with limitations in biosafety and clinical application. Herein, we leverage the biocompatibility and immune activation capacity of Salmonella strain VNP20009 to produce double-layered membrane vesicles (DMVs) for enhanced systemic safety and antitumor immunity. Considering the photothermal effect of polydopamine upon irradiation, VNP20009-derived DMVs are prepared to coat the surface of mesoporous polydopamine (MPD) nanoparticles, leading to the potential synergies between photothermal therapy mediated by MPD and immunotherapy magnified by DMVs. The single dose of MPD@DMV can passively target tumors and activate the immune system with upregulated T cell infiltration and secretion levels of pro-inflammatory factors as well as antitumor related cytokines. All of these promoted immune responses result in malignant melanoma tumor regression and extended survival time on local or distant tumor-bearing mouse models. Importantly, we further explore the advantages of intravenous injection of the MPD@DMV agent compared with its intratumoral injection, and the former demonstrates better long-term immune effects on animal bodies. Overall, this formulation design brings broader prospects for the autologous vaccine adjuvant by bacterial membrane vesicles in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Drug microcarriers are widely used in disease treatment, and microfluidics is well established in the preparation of microcarrier particles. A proper design of the microfluidic platform toward scalable production of drug microcarriers can extend its application values in wound healing, where large numbers of microcarriers are required. Here, a microfluidic step emulsification method for the preparation of monodisperse droplets is presented. The droplet size depends primarily on the microchannel depth rather than flow rate, making the system robust for high-throughput production of droplets and hydrogel microparticles. Based on this platform, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) is uniformly encapsulated in the microparticles, and black phosphorus (BP) is incorporated for controllable release via near-infrared (NIR) stimulation. The microparticles serve as drug carriers to be applied to the wound site, inducing angiogenesis and collagen deposition, thereby accelerating wound repair. These results indicate that the step emulsification technique provides a promising solution to scalable production of drug microcarriers for wound healing as well as tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as the signal reporter is widely used for the rapid detection of food-borne pathogens. However, it is difficult for LFIA to achieve sensitive detection due to the insufficient colorimetric signal brightness of AuNPs. Herein, we developed a bimetallic Ag-Au urchin-like hollow nanospheres (BUHNPs) based on the simple and rapid synthesis through co-reduction and galvanic replacement reactions. The BUHNPs exhibit superb colorimetric signal brightness, strong photothermal signals and high antibody coupling efficiency. The obtained colorimetric and photothermal LFIA (BUHNPs-CM-LFIA and BUHNPs-PT-LFIA) based on BUHNPs were used for the sensitive detection of a pathogenic bacterium (Escherichia coli O157:H7). The limit of detection values of the colorimetric and photothermal quantitative analysis were 2.48 × 103 and 5.50 × 102 CFU mL-1, which were approximately 4-fold and 18-fold lower than that of AuNPs-LFIA (9.92 × 103 CFU mL-1), respectively. This work suggests that a dual-readout LFIA with BUHNPs as a promising signal reporter can be used to improve the detection performance of LFIA and construct a more accurate and sensitive detection platform.

A mesoporous polydopamine-derived nanomedicine for targeted and synergistic treatment of inflammatory bowel disease by pH-Responsive drug release and ROS scavenging. Mater Today Bio 2023; 19:100610.

Abstract
Repurposing clinically approved drugs to construct novel nanomedicines is currently a very attractive therapeutic approach. Selective enrichment of anti-inflammatory drugs and reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging at the region of inflammation by stimuli-responsive oral nanomedicine is an effective strategy for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This study reports a novel nanomedicine, which is based on the excellent drug loading and free radical scavenging ability of mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs). By initiating polyacrylic acid(PAA)polymerization on its surface, a "core-shell" structure nano-carrier with pH response is constructed. Then, under alkaline conditions, using the π-π stacking and hydrophobic interaction between the anti-inflammatory drug sulfasalazine (SAP) and MPDA, the nanomedicines (PAA@MPDA-SAP NPs) loaded efficiently (928 μ g mg-1) of SAP was successfully formed. Our results reveal that PAA@MPDA-SAP NPs can pass through the upper digestive tract smoothly and finally accumulate in the inflamed colon. Through the synergistic effect of anti-inflammation and antioxidation, it can effectively reduce the expression of pro-inflammatory factors and enhance the intestinal mucosal barrier, and finally significantly alleviate the symptoms of colitis in mice. Furthermore, we confirmed that PAA@MPDA-SAP NPs have good biocompatibility and anti-inflammatory repair ability under inflammation induction through human colonic organoids. In summary, this work provides a theoretical basis for the development of nanomedicines for IBD therapy.

Abstract
Traditional photothermal therapy ablates tumor cells by a high temperature (> 50 °C). Although it has shown good anti-tumor effect in animal models, the potential damages to healthy tissues and the unnecessary inflammatory reactions caused by the high temperature have hindered the clinical transitions of traditional photothermal therapy. In this study, we used polydopamine (PDA) as a mild photothermal material and control the maximum temperature below 45 °C, which not only avoided the side effects caused by a high temperature, but also ablated a fraction of tumor cells and produced tumor antigens. Meanwhile, the near-infrared (NIR) light also served as a "switch" to trigger the release of CRISPR/Cas9 RNP from Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) after their accumulation to tumor sites via magnetic targeting. The triple functional mild photothermal therapy achieved significant PD-L1 gene knockout efficiency in the tumor-bearing mice, reversed the condition of immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment, led to a higher level of anti-tumor immune responses and effectively inhibited the growth of melanoma. We anticipate that this triple functional mild photothermal therapy would provide a potential new approach for the treatment of malignant tumors.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) is a natural melanin derived from marine mussels that has good biocompatibility, biodegradability, and photothermal conversion ability. As a new coating material, it offers a novel way to modify the surface of various substances. The drug loading capacity and encapsulation efficiency of PDA are greatly improved via the use of mesoporous materials. The abundant pore canals on mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) exhibit a uniquely large surface area, which provides a structural basis for drug delivery. In this review, we systematically summarized the characteristics and manufacturing process of MPDA, introduced its application in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, and discussed the existing problems in its development and clinical application. This comprehensive review will facilitate further research on MPDA in the fields of medicine including cancer therapy, materials science, and biology.

Abstract
Host immune response has gradually been accepted as a critical factor in achieving successful implant osseointegration. The aim of this study is to create a favorable immune microenvironment by the dominant release of IL-4 during the initial few days after implant insertion to mitigate early inflammatory reactions and facilitate osseointegration. Herein, the B-TNT/PDA/IL-4 substrate was established by immobilizing an interleukin-4 (IL-4)/polydopamine (PDA) coating on a black TiO2 nanotube (B-TNT) surface, achieving on-demand IL-4 release under near infrared (NIR) irradiation. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analyses based on high-throughput DNA microarray data revealed that IL-4 addition inhibited osteoclast differentiation and function. Animal experiment results suggested that the B-TNT/PDA/IL-4+Laser substrate induced the least inflammatory, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, inducible nitric oxide synthase and the most CD163 positive cells, compared to the Ti group at 7 days post-implantation. In addition, 28 days post-implantation, micro-computed tomography results showed the highest bone volume/total volume, trabecular thickness, trabecular number and the lowest trabecular separation, while Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson-trichrome staining revealed the largest amount of new bone formation for the B-TNT/PDA/IL-4+Laser group. This study revealed the osteoimmunoregulatory function of the novel B-TNT/PDA/IL-4 surface by photothermal release of IL-4 at an early period post-implantation, thus paving a new way for dental implant surface modification.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an intractable condition with complex pathological processes and poor prognosis. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation induced by the mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) protein is one of the causes of secondary inflammation of SCI. Rapamycin (Rapa) is a pharmacological inhibitor of mTOR, which can inhibit ROS overproduction mediated by abnormal activation of the mTOR protein. Polydopamine, as a nanocarrier with excellent biological safety, has been reported to possess satisfactory ROS scavenging ability. Therefore, we designed a mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticle loaded with Rapa (mPDA@Rapa) for combination therapy, which simultaneously inhibited abnormally activated mTOR-mediated ROS production and eliminated already generated ROS. The synthesized mPDA nanoparticles could realize the effective encapsulation and sustained release of Rapa due to their mesoporous cavities and a hydrophobic benzene ring structure. In vitro experiments proved that mPDA@Rapa nanoparticles had a good ROS scavenging ability towards hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radicals. Furthermore, mPDA@Rapa also showed a good therapeutic effect in SCI model rats, which was evidenced by a smaller injury cavity, more coordinated hind limb movements, and a higher degree of neurogenesis and tissue regeneration. Our work provides a combined strategy to inhibit ROS overproduction and eliminate excess ROS, with potential applications not only in SCI, but also in other ROS-induced inflammations.

Abstract
Clinical implementation of photothermal therapy (PTT) is mainly hampered by limited tissue penetration, undesirable thermal damage to normal tissues, and thermotolerence induced by heat shock proteins (HSPs). To overcome these obstacles, we constructed a novel gene-photothermal synergistic therapeutic nanoplatform composed of a multi-branched Au nanooctopus (AuNO) core and mesoporous polydopamine (mPDA) shell, followed by CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoprotein (RNP) loading and then polyethylene glycol-folic acid (PEG-FA) coating. AuNO was simply synthesized by adjusting the ratio of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), which showed significant localized surface plasmon resonances in the NIR-II window, and exhibited an excellent tissue penetration capability and high photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE, 47.68%). Even, the PCE could be further increased to 66.17% by mPDA coating. Furthermore, the sequential modification of AuNO@mPDA using RNP and PEG-FA can down-regulate HSP90α expression at tumor sites, enhance apoptosis and reduce the heat resistance of cancer cells. The synergistic effect of enhanced photothermal capacity and reduced thermoresistance addressed the multiple limitations of PTT, and presented excellent in vitro and in vivo antitumor efficacy, having great potential for the clinical application of PTT.

Abstract
Developing intelligent responsive platforms to carry out high-performance therapy is of great interest for the treatment of tumors and their metastases. However, effective drug loading, activity maintenance, off-target leakage, and response to collaborative therapy remain great challenges. Herein, a targeted intelligent responsive mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) nanosystem was reported for use in gene-mediated photochemotherapy for synergistic tumor treatment. First, the MPDA was surface modified to maintain a positive charge near the surface and to impart active targeting. Then, gambogic acid (GA) was encapsulated in the MPDA, solidified by phase change materials (PCMs), and finally loaded with siRNA by electrostatic interactions to obtain the smart nanodelivery system (PPMD@GA/si). In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that it not only effectively avoids siRNA inactivation and accidental release of GA, but also possesses potential for targeted accumulation to tumor tissue and mild-temperature photothermal therapy and chemotherapy via near infrared (NIR) radiation. Additionally, the release of siRNA could also effectively inhibit tumor invasion and metastasis to realize multimodal synergistic therapy. Overall, our studies provide a promising idea for synergistic tumor and metastasis treatment based on vector construction.

Abstract
The design and preparation of multifunctional drug carriers for combined photothermal–chemotherapy of cancer have attracted extensive attention over the past few decades. However, the development of simple-structured stimuli-responsive theranostic agents as both photothermal agents and chemotherapeutic agents remains a big challenge. Herein, a novel double-shelled nanocarrier composed of hollow Ag2S (HAg2S) nanospheres and a mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) exterior shell was fabricated through a facile process. Notably, HAg2S possesses both fluorescence and photothermal properties. MPDA acts as a drug carrier and photothermal agent. Meanwhile, the cavity structure between HAg2S and MPDA provides more space for drug loading. The nanocarrier presents a high drug loading rate of 23.4%. It exhibits an apparent pH-responsive DOX release property due to the acidic sensitivity of PDA. In addition, the release of DOX is promoted under NIR irradiation, which is attributed to the heating action generated by the photothermal effect of HAg2S and MPDA. The cytotoxicity test shows that the nanocarriers possess good biocompatibility. Compared with single photothermal therapy or chemotherapy, the combined treatment represents a synergistic effect with higher therapeutic efficacy. In addition, the nanocarriers exhibit excellent fluorescence imaging capability and can target HepG2 cells. These simple-structured smart nanocarriers have a great potential for fluorescence-mediated combination cancer therapy.

Abstract
One of the main challenges in applying the immune checkpoint blockade to treat colorectal cancer (CRC) is the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Owing to its excellent cancer cell killing ability and immune activation, mild photothermal therapy (PTT) has shown bright promise to sensitize tumors to immune checkpoint inhibition through turning the immunologically "cold" tumors into "hot" ones. Herein, a mild photothermal effect-assisted theragnostic nanodrug (MnO2@MPDA-PEG NPs) is developed by incorporating MnO2 into PEGylated-mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA-PEG NPs). The presence of PEG endows the theragnostic nanodrug with high biostability. After accumulation in colorectal tumor, the theragnostic nanodrug responds to the tumor microenvironment, leading to the simultaneous release of Mn2+ which serves as a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent for tumor imaging. The released Mn2+ could also promote mild photothermal treatment-induced immune response, including the maturation of BMDC cells. In vivo antitumor studies on a CT26 model demonstrate that MnO2@MPDA-PEG NPs could be a promising dual-imaging theragnostic nanodrug to potentiate the systemic antitumor immunities.

Abstract
Lactate accumulation in the solid tumor is highly relevant to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Targeting lactate metabolism significantly enhances the efficacy of immunotherapy. However, lactate depletion by lactate oxidase (LOX) consumes oxygen and results in the aggravated hypoxia situation, counteracting the benefit of lactate depletion. Beyond the TME regulation, it is necessary to initiate the effective immunity cycle for therapeutic purposes. In this fashion, dual close-loop of catalyzed lactate depletion and immune response by a rational material design are established to address this issue. Here, we constructed PEG-modified mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles with Cu2+ chelation and LOX encapsulation (denoted as mCuLP). After mCuLP nanosystems targeting into the tumor sites, released LOX consumes lactate to H2O2. Subsequently, the produced H2O2 is further catalyzed by Cu2+-chelated mPDA to produce oxygen, supplying the oxygen source for the closed-loop of lactate depletion. Meanwhile, the mild PTT caused by the photothermal mPDA induces ICD of tumor cells to promote DC maturation and then T lymphocyte infiltration to kill tumor cells, which forms another closed-loop for cancer immunity. Therefore, this dual closed-loop strategy of mCuLP nanosystems effectively inhibits tumor growth, providing a promising treatment modality to cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
The clinical outcomes of cancer nanovaccine have been largely impeded owing to the low antigen-specific T cell response rate and acquired resistance caused by the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, we reported a tumor acidity-responsive nanovaccine to remodel the immunosuppressive TME and expand the recruitment of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) using hybrid micelles (HM), which encapsulated colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1-R) inhibitor BLZ-945 and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitor NLG-919 in its core and displayed a model antigen ovalbumin (OVA) on its surface (denoted as BN@HM-OVA). The bioactive nanovaccine is coated with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) shell for extending nanoparticle circulation. The shell can be shed in response to the weakly acidic tumor microenvironment. The decrease in size and the increase in positive charge may cause the deep tumor penetration of drugs. We demonstrated that the bioactive nanovaccine dramatically enhance antigen presentation by dendritic cells (DCs) and drugs transportation into M1-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and tumor cells via size reduction and increasing positive charge caused by the weakly acidic TME. Such bioactive nanovaccine could remodel the immunosuppressive TME into an effector T cells favorable environment, leading to tumor growth inhibition in prophylactic and therapeutic E.G7-OVA tumor models. Furthermore, combining the bioactive nanovaccine with simultaneous anti-PD-1 antibody treatment leads to a long-term tumor inhibition, based on the optimal timing and sequence of PD-1 blockade against T cell receptor. This research provides a new strategy for the development of efficient cancer immunotherapy. A bioactive nanovaccine (BN@HM-OVA) was adopted for synergistic immunotherapy of E.G7-OVA tumors. BN@HM-OVA exhibited superior ability to induce DCs maturation and robust antigen-specific T cell responses. BN@HM-OVA contributed to a homeostasis in the tumor microenvironment ideal for antitumor vaccination. The combination treatment of BN@HM-OVA and αPD-1 achieved maximum therapeutic benefits.

Abstract
Extrusion of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), a fundamental host innate immune defense against pathogens, has recently been linked to cancer resistance to immunotherapy and distant metastasis. These findings highlight interesting areas of cancer-elicited inflammation and potential therapeutic strategies. Disrupting existing NETs with DNase I has been proved to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of tumor immunotherapy and attenuate metastatic spread. However, systemic biodistribution of DNase I raises safety issues, potentially impairing host defense against infection. Hence, tumor-specific delivery and metastatic niche-targeted effects are attractive options for localized degradation of NETs. We have engineered a nanoplatform with a plasmonic gold blackbody (AuPB) core with broad-spectrum photo activity and a mesoporous polydopamine (mPDA) shell for efficient loading and photoregulated release of DNase I. The on-demand released DNase I triggered by the second near-infrared (NIR-II) light irradiation breaks the "NET-mediated physical barrier", thereby increasing the contact of immune cytotoxic cells with tumor cells in living mice and sensitizing immune checkpoint therapy of primary colorectal cancer (CRC). Moreover, the deposition and light-controlled cargo release from systemically delivered AuPB@mPDA carriers in liver, the most frequent site of CRC metastasis, abolished NET-mediated capture of circulating tumor cells and hence metastatic seeding. Our findings indicate that the localized, light-regulated release of DNase I by photoactive carriers in the NIR-II window represent a translational route for immune-mediated tumor regression and metastasis inhibition.

Abstract
Polymers that can change their properties in response to an external or internal stimulus have become an interesting platform for drug delivery systems. Polymeric nanoparticles can be used to decrease the toxicity of drugs, improve the circulation of hydrophobic drugs, and increase a drug’s efficacy. Furthermore, polymers that are sensitive to specific stimuli can be used to achieve controlled release of drugs into specific areas of the body. This review discusses the different stimuli that can be used for controlled drug delivery based on internal and external stimuli. Internal stimuli have been defined as events that evoke changes in different characteristics, inside the body, such as changes in pH, redox potential, and temperature. External stimuli have been defined as the use of an external source such as light and ultrasound to implement such changes. Special attention has been paid to the particular chemical structures that need to be incorporated into polymers to achieve the desired stimuli response. A current trend in this field is the incorporation of several stimuli in a single polymer to achieve higher specificity. Therefore, to access the most recent advances in stimuli-responsive polymers, the focus of this review is to combine several stimuli. The combination of different stimuli is discussed along with the chemical structures that can produce it.

Abstract
The successful treatment of infected wounds requires strategies with effective antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and healing-promoting properties. Accordingly, the use of Cu2+ and tetracycline (TC), which can promote angiogenesis, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition, also antibacterial activity, at the wound site, has shown application prospects in promoting infected wound repair. However, realizing controllable release to prolong action time and avoid potential toxicities is critical. Moreover, near-infrared light (NIR)-activated mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs) reportedly exert anti-inflammatory effects by eliminating the reactive oxygen species generated during inflammatory responses. In this study, we assess whether Cu2+ and TC loaded in MPDA NPs can accelerate infected wound healing in mice. In particular, Cu2+ is chelated and immobilized on the surface of MPDA NPs, while a thermosensitive phase-change material (PCM; melting point: 39-40 °C), combined with antibiotics, was loaded into the MPDA NPs as a gatekeeper (PPMD@Cu/TC). Results show that PPMD@Cu/TC exhibits significant great photothermal properties with NIR irradiation, which induces the release of Cu2+, while inducing PCM melting and, subsequent, TC release. In combination with anti-inflammatory therapy, NIR-triggered Cu2+ and TC release enables the nanocomposite to eradicate bacterial wound infections and accelerate healing. Importantly, negligible damage to primary organs and satisfactory biocompatibility were observed in the murine model. Collectively, these findings highlight the therapeutic potential of this MPDA-based platform for controlling bacterial infection and accelerating wound healing.

Abstract
Bringing together photothermal therapy and chemotherapy (photothermal-chemotherapy, PT-CT) is a highly promising clinical approach but requires the development of intelligent multifunctional delivery vectors. In this work, we prepared mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs) loaded with the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX). These NPs were then coated with the platelet membrane (PLTM). The coated MPDA NPs are spherical and clearly mesoporous in structure. They have a particle size of approximately 184 nm and pore size of ca. 45 nm. The NPs are potent photothermal agents and efficient DOX carriers, with increased rates of drug release observed in vitro in conditions representative of the tumor microenvironment. The NPs are preferentially taken up by cancer cells but not by macrophage cells, and while cytocompatible with healthy cells are highly toxic to cancer cells. An in vivo murine model of human breast cancer revealed that the NPs can markedly slow the growth of a tumor (ca. 9-fold smaller after 14 days' treatment), have extended pharmacokinetics compared to free DOX (with DOX still detectable in the bloodstream after 24 h when the NPs are applied), and are highly targeted with minimal off-site effects on the heart, liver, spleen, kidney, and lungs.

Abstract
RNA interference (RNAi) is being extensively investigated as a potential therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment. However, RNAi-based therapeutics have not yet been used to treat cancer because of their instability and the difficulty of microRNA (miRNA) delivery. Plasmonic nanoparticle-based RNAi nanotherapeutics have been developed for accurate and sensitive diagnosis and a strong therapeutic effect on cancers by leveraging their ease-of-use and specific properties such as photothermal conversion. In this review, recent strategies and advances in plasmonic nanoparticle-based miRNA delivery are briefly presented to facilitate the detection and treatment of several cancers. The challenges and potential opportunities afforded by the RNAi-based theragnosis field are discussed. We expect that the RNAi-integrated plasmonic nanotherapeutics discussed in this review can provide insights for the early diagnosis and effective treatment of cancer.

Tumor targeting and penetrating biomimetic mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles facilitate photothermal killing and autophagy blocking for synergistic tumor ablation. Acta Biomater 2021; 136:456-472.

Abstract
The synergistic manipulation of autophagy blocking with tumor targeting and penetration effects to enhance cancer cell killing during photothermal therapy (PTT) remains a substantial challenge. Herein, we fabricated a biomimetic nanoplatform by precisely coating homologous prostate cancer cell membranes (CMs) onto the surface of mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (mPDA NPs) encapsulating the autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) for synergistically manipulating PTT and autophagy for anticancer treatment. The resulting biomimetic mPDA@CMs NPs-CQ system could escape macrophage phagocytosis, overcome the vascular barrier, and home in the homologous prostate tumor xenograft with high tumor targeting and penetrating efficiency. The mPDA NPs core endowed the mPDA@CMs NPs-CQ with good photothermal capability to mediate PTT killing of prostate cancer cells, while NIR-triggered CQ release from the nanosystem further arrested PTT-induced protective autophagy of cancer cells, thus weakening the resistance of prostate cancer cells to PTT. This combined PTT killing and autophagy blocking anticancer strategy could induce significant autophagosome accumulation, ROS generation, mitochondrial damage, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and apoptotic signal transduction, which finally results in synergistic prostate tumor ablation in vivo. This prostate cancer biomimetic nanosystem with synergistically enhanced anticancer efficiency achieved by manipulating PTT killing and autophagy blocking is expected to serve as a more effective anticancer strategy against prostate cancer. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Autophagy is considered as one of the most efficient rescuer and reinforcement mechanisms of cancer cells against photothermal therapy (PTT)-induced cancer cell eradication. How to synergistically manipulate autophagy blocking with significant tumor targeting and penetration to enhance PTT-mediated cancer cell killing remains a substantial challenge. Herein, we fabricated a biomimetic nanoplatform by precisely coating homologous cancer cell membranes onto the surface of mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles with encapsulation of the autophagy inhibitor chloroquine for synergistic antitumor treatment with high tumor targeting and penetrating efficiency both in vitro and in vivo. This biomimetic nanosystem with synergistically enhanced anticancer efficiency by manipulating PTT killing and autophagy blocking is expected to serve as a more effective anticancer strategy.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA), which is derived from marine mussels, has excellent potential in early diagnosis of diseases and targeted drug delivery owing to its good biocompatibility, biodegradability, and photothermal conversion. However, when used as a solid nanoparticle, the application of traditional PDA is restricted because of the low drug-loading and encapsulation efficiencies of hydrophobic drugs. Nevertheless, the emergence of mesoporous materials broaden our horizon. Mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) has the characteristics of a porous structure, simple preparation process, low cost, high specific surface area, high light-to-heat conversion efficiency, and excellent biocompatibility, and therefore has gained considerable interest. This review provides an overview of the preparation methods and the latest applications of MPDA-based nanodrug delivery systems (chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy, photothermal therapy combined with chemotherapy, photothermal therapy combined with immunotherapy, photothermal therapy combined with photodynamic/chemodynamic therapy, and cancer theranostics). This review is expected to shed light on the multi-strategy antitumor therapy applications of MPDA-based nanodrug delivery systems. ![]()

Abstract
Preventing bacterial infection in situ and accelerating skin generation simultaneously are essentially important for wound healing. Herein, a mussel-inspired Ag nanozyme-based bilayer hydrogel is constructed to address the above concerns. The bilayer hydrogel is composed of a layer with large pores absorbing the wound exudate and allowing oxygen exchange and a layer with small pores keeping the wound moist and preventing bacterial invasion. Benefitting from the polydopamine (PDA) coating-reduced Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs), the hydrogel exhibits high near infrared (NIR) absorption at 808 nm to generate hyperthermia and NIR-enhanced peroxidase (POD-like) activity to produce hydroxyl radicals (•OH), which endows the hydrogel with excellent antibacterial properties when combined with the released Ag+. In addition, the hydrogel presents adhesiveness due to the catechol group on a PDA molecule. The in vivo test results demonstrate that the bilayer hydrogel can accelerate infected skin generation by facilitating collagen deposition, decreasing tumor necrosis factor-α secretion, and promoting vascular endothelial growth factor expression.

Abstract
Although protein therapeutics is of significance in therapeutic intervention of cancers, controlled delivery of therapeutic proteins still faces substantial challenges including susceptibility to degradation and denaturation and poor membrane permeability. Herein, we report a sialic acid (SA)-imprinted biodegradable silica nanoparticles (BS-NPs)-based protein delivery strategy for targeted cancer therapy. Cytotoxic ribonuclease A (RNase A) was effectively caged in the matrix of disulfide-hybridized silica NPs (encapsulation efficiency of ∼64%), which were further functionalized with cancer targeting capability via surface imprinting with SA as imprinting template. Such nanovectors could not only maintain high stability in physiological conditions but also permit redox-triggered biodegradation for both concomitant release of the loaded therapeutic cargo and in vivo clearance. In vitro experiments confirmed that the SA-imprinted RNase A@BS-NPs could selectively target SA-overexpressed tumor cells, promote cells uptake, and subsequently be cleaved by intracellular glutathione (GSH), resulting in rapid release kinetics and enhanced cell cytotoxicity. In vivo experiments further confirmed that the SA-imprinted RNase A@BS-NPs had specific tumor-targeting ability and high therapeutic efficacy of RNase A in xenograft tumor model. Due to the specific targeting and traceless GSH-stimulated intracellular protein release, the SA-imprinted BS-NPs provided a promising platform for the delivery of biomacromolecules in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Interfacial modular assembly has emerged as an adaptable strategy for engineering the surface properties of substrates in biomedicine, photonics, and catalysis. Herein, we report a versatile and robust coating (pBDT-TA), self-assembled from tannic acid (TA) and a self-polymerizing aromatic dithiol (i.e., benzene-1,4-dithiol, BDT), that can be engineered on diverse substrates with a precisely tuned thickness (5-40 nm) by varying the concentration of BDT used. The pBDT-TA coating is stabilized by covalent (disulfide) bonds and supramolecular (π-π) interactions, endowing the coating with high stability in various harsh aqueous environments across ionic strength, pH, temperature (e.g., 100 mM NaCl, HCl (pH 1) or NaOH (pH 13), and water at 100 °C), as well as surfactant solution (e.g., 100 mM Triton X-100) and biological buffer (e.g., Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline), as validated by experiments and simulations. Moreover, the reported pBDT-TA coating enables secondary reactions on the coating for engineering hybrid adlayers (e.g., ZIF-8 shells) via phenolic-mediated adhesion, and the facile integration of aromatic fluorescent dyes (e.g., rhodamine B) via π interactions without requiring elaborate synthetic processes.

Abstract
The translation of mussel-inspired wet adhesion to biomedical engineering fields have catalyzed the emergence of polydopamine (PDA)-based nanomaterials with privileged features and properties of conducting multiple interfacial interactions. Recent concerns and progress on the understanding of PDA's hierarchical structure and progressive assembly are inspiring approaches toward novel nanostructures with property and function advantages over simple nanoparticle architectures. Major breakthroughs in this field demonstrated the essential role of π-π stacking and π-cation interactions in the rational intervention of PDA self-assembly. In this review, the recently emerging concepts in the preparation and application of PDA nanomaterials, including 3D mesostructures, low-dimensional nanostructures, micelle/nanoemulsion based nanoclusters, as well as other multicomponent nanohybrids by the segregation and organization of PDA building blocks on nanoscale interfaces are outlined. The contribution of π-electron interactions on the interfacial loading/release of π electron-rich molecules (nucleic acids, drugs, photosensitizers) and the exogenous coupling of optical energy, as well as the impact of wet-adhesion interactions on the nano-bio interface interplay, are highlighted by discussing the structure-property relationships in their featured applications including fluorescent biosensing, gene therapy, drug delivery, phototherapy, combined therapy, etc. The limitations of current explorations, and future research directions are also discussed.

Abstract
Various polydopamine (PDA) nanospheres were synthesized by utilizing triblock copolymer Pluronic F127 and 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene (TMB) as soft templates. Precise morphology control of polydopamine nanospheres was realized from solid polydopamine nanospheres to hollow polydopamine nanospheres, mesoporous polydopamine nanospheres and hollow mesoporous polydopamine nanospheres (H-MPDANSs) by adjusting the weight ratio of TMB to F127. The inner diameter of the prepared H-MPDANSs can be controlled in the range of 50-100 nm, and the outer diameter is about 180 nm. Furthermore, the thickness of hollow mesoporous spherical shell can be adjusted by changing the amount of dopamine (DA). The H-MPDANSs have good biocompatibility, excellent photothermal properties, high drug loading capacity, and outstanding sustainable drug release properties. In addition, both NIR laser irradiation and acid pH can facilitate the controlled release of doxorubicin (DOX) from H-MPDANSs@DOX.

Abstract
Phenolics are ubiquitous in nature and have gained immense research attention because of their unique physiochemical properties and widespread industrial use. In recent decades, their accessibility, versatile reactivity, and relative biocompatibility have catalysed research in phenolic-enabled nanotechnology (PEN) particularly for biomedical applications which have been a major benefactor of this emergence, as largely demonstrated by polydopamine and polyphenols. Therefore, it is imperative to overveiw the fundamental mechanisms and synthetic strategies of PEN for state-of-the-art biomedical applications and provide a timely and comprehensive summary. In this review, we will focus on the principles and strategies involved in PEN and summarize the use of the PEN synthetic toolkit for particle engineering and the bottom-up synthesis of nanohybrid materials. Specifically, we will discuss the attractive forces between phenolics and complementary structural motifs in confined particle systems to synthesize high-quality products with controllable size, shape, composition, as well as surface chemistry and function. Additionally, phenolic's numerous applications in biosensing, bioimaging, and disease treatment will be highlighted. This review aims to provide guidelines for new scientists in the field and serve as an up-to-date compilation of what has been achieved in this area, while offering expert perspectives on PEN's use in translational research.

Abstract
Theranostic agents based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photothermal therapy (PTT) play an important role in tumor therapy. However, the available theranostic agents are facing great challenges such as biocompatibility, MRI contrast effect and photothermal conversion efficiency (η). In this work, mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDAPs/Mn) were prepared on MRI and PTT combined theranostic nanoplatforms, of which the high loading manganese ions and specific surface areas enable good MRI contrast and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency, respectively. The MPDAPs/Mn have uniform morphology, good stability and biocompatibility. Meanwhile, in vitro and in vivo studies have confirmed their superior T1-weighted MRI effect and photothermal conversion efficiency. Furthermore, MPDAPs/Mn have excellent antitumor efficacy in HeLa tumor-bearing mice. Therefore, this developed MPDAPs/Mn theranostic nanoplatform could be a promising candidate for MRI-guided photothermal cancer therapy.

Abstract
Infectious or immune diseases have caused serious threat to human health due to their complexity and specificity, and emerging drug delivery systems (DDSs) have evolved into the most promising therapeutic strategy for drug-targeted therapy. Various mesoporous biomaterials are exploited and applied as efficient nanocarriers to loading drugs by virtue of their large surface area, high porosity, and prominent biocompatibility. Nanosized mesoporous nanocarriers show great potential in biomedical research, and it has become the research hotspot in the interdisciplinary field. Herein, recent progress and assembly mechanisms on mesoporous inorganic biomaterials (e.g., silica, carbon, metal oxide) are summarized systematically, and typical functionalization methods (i.e., hybridization, polymerization, and doping) for nanocarriers are also discussed in depth. Particularly, structure-activity relationship and the effect of physicochemical parameters of mesoporous biomaterials, including morphologies (e.g., hollow, core-shell), pore textures (e.g., pore size, pore volume), and surface features (e.g., roughness and hydrophilic/hydrophobic) in DDS application are overviewed and elucidated in detail. As one of the important development directions, advanced stimuli-responsive DDSs (e.g., pH, temperature, redox, ultrasound, light, magnetic field) are highlighted. Finally, the prospect of mesoporous biomaterials in disease therapeutics is stated, and it will open a new spring for the development of mesoporous nanocarriers.

NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 10:E2276.

Abstract
Bioinspired nanomaterials are ideal components for nanomedicine, by virtue of their expected biocompatibility or even complete lack of toxicity. Natural and artificial melanin-based nanoparticles (MNP), including polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NP), excel for their extraordinary combination of additional optical, electronic, chemical, photophysical, and photochemical properties. Thanks to these features, melanin plays an important multifunctional role in the design of new platforms for nanomedicine where this material works not only as a mechanical support or scaffold, but as an active component for imaging, even multimodal, and simple or synergistic therapy. The number of examples of bio-applications of MNP increased dramatically in the last decade. Here, we review the most recent ones, focusing on the multiplicity of functions that melanin performs in theranostics platforms with increasing complexity. For the sake of clarity, we start analyzing briefly the main properties of melanin and its derivative as well as main natural sources and synthetic methods, moving to imaging application from mono-modal (fluorescence, photoacoustic, and magnetic resonance) to multi-modal, and then to mono-therapy (drug delivery, anti-oxidant, photothermal, and photodynamic), and finally to theranostics and synergistic therapies, including gene- and immuno- in combination to photothermal and photodynamic. Nanomedicine aims not only at the treatment of diseases, but also to their prevention, and melanin in nature performs a protective action, in the form of nanopigment, against UV-Vis radiations and oxidants. With these functions being at the border between nanomedicine and cosmetics nanotechnology, recently examples of applications of artificial MNP in cosmetics are increasing, paving the road to the birth of the new science of nanocosmetics. In the last part of this review, we summarize and discuss these important recent results that establish evidence of the interconnection between nanomedicine and cosmetics nanotechnology.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA)-based nanoreactors have shown exceptional promise as multifunctional materials due to their nanoscale dimensions and sub-microliter volumes for reactions of different systems. Biocompatibility, abundance of active sites, and excellent photothermal conversion have facilitated their extensive use in bioscience and energy storage/conversion. This minireview summarizes recent advances in PDA-based nanoreactors, as applied to the abovementioned fields. We first highlight the design and synthesis of functional PDA-based nanoreactors with structural and compositional diversity. Special emphasis in bioscience has been given to drug/protein delivery, photothermal therapy, and antibacterial properties, while for energy-related applications, the focus is on electrochemical energy storage, catalysis, and solar energy harvesting. In addition, perspectives on pressing challenges and future research opportunities regarding PDA-based nanoreactors are discussed.
