Abstract
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in multifunctional theranostic agents capable of delivering therapeutic payloads while facilitating simultaneous diagnostic imaging of diseased sites. This approach offers a comprehensive strategy particularly valuable in dynamically evolving diseases like cancer, where combining therapy and diagnostics provides crucial insights for treatment planning. Nanoscale platforms, specifically nanogels, have emerged as promising candidates due to their stability, tunability, and multifunctionality as carriers. As a well-studied subgroup of soft polymeric nanoparticles, nanogels exhibit inherent advantages due to their size and chemical compositions, allowing for passive and active targeting of diseased tissues. Moreover, nanogels loaded with therapeutic and diagnostic agents can be designed to respond to specific stimuli at the disease site, enhancing their efficacy and specificity. This capability enables fine-tuning of theranostic platforms, garnering significant clinical interest as they can be tailored for personalized treatments. The ability to monitor tumor progression in response to treatment facilitates the adaptation of therapies according to individual patient responses, highlighting the importance of designing theranostic platforms to guide clinicians in making informed treatment decisions. Consequently, the integration of therapy and diagnostics using theranostic platforms continues to advance, offering intelligent solutions to address the challenges of complex diseases such as cancer. In this context, nanogels capable of delivering therapeutic payloads and simultaneously armed with diagnostic modalities have emerged as an attractive theranostic platform. This review focuses on advances made toward the fabrication and utilization of theranostic nanogels by highlighting examples from recent literature where their performances through a combination of therapeutic agents and imaging methods have been evaluated.

Abstract
Tumors pose a significant threat to human health, and their occurrence and fatality rates are on the rise each year. Accurate tumor diagnosis is crucial in preventing untimely treatment and late-stage metastasis, thereby reducing mortality. To address this, we have developed a novel type of hybrid nanogel called γ-Fe2O3@PNIPAM/PAm/CTS, which contains iron oxide nanoparticles and poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide)/polyacrylamide/chitosan. The rationale for this study relies on the concept that thermosensitive PNIPAM has the ability to contract when exposed to elevated temperature conditions found within tumors. This contraction leads to a dense clustering of the high-loading γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles within the nanogel, thus greatly enhancing the capabilities of MRI. Additionally, the amino groups in chitosan on the particle surface can be converted into ammonium salts under mildly acidic conditions, allowing for an increase in the charge of the nanogel specifically at the slightly acidic tumor site. Consequently, it promotes the phagocytosis of tumor cells and effectively enhances the accumulation and retention of nanogels at the tumor site. The synthesis of the hybrid nanogels involves a surfactant-free emulsion copolymerization process, where vinyl-modified γ-Fe2O3 superparamagnetic nanoparticles are copolymerized with the monomers in the presence of chitosan. We have optimized various reaction parameters to achieve a high loading content of the superparamagnetic nanoparticles, reaching up to 60%. The achieved r 2 value of 517.74 mM-1 S-1 significantly surpasses that of the clinical imaging contrast agent Resovist (approximately 151 mM-1 S-1). To assess the performance of these magnetic nanogels, we conducted experiments using Cal27 oral tumors and 4T1 breast tumors in animal models. The nanogels exhibited temperature- and pH-sensitivity, enabling magnetic targeting and enhancing diagnosis through MRI. The results demonstrated the potential of these hybrid nanogels as contrast agents for magnetic targeting in biomedical applications.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a complex and variable region characterized by hypoxia, low pH, high redox status, overexpression of enzymes, and high-adenosine triphosphate concentrations. In recent years, with the continuous in-depth study of nanomaterials, more and more TME-specific response nanomaterials are used for tumor treatment. However, the complexity of the TME causes different types of responses with various strategies and mechanisms of action. Aiming to systematically demonstrate the recent advances in research on TME-responsive nanomaterials, this work summarizes the characteristics of TME and outlines the strategies of different TME responses. Representative reaction types are illustrated and their merits and demerits are analyzed. Finally, forward-looking views on TME-response strategies for nanomaterials are presented. It is envisaged that such emerging strategies for the treatment of cancer are expected to exhibit dramatic trans-clinical capabilities, demonstrating the extensive potential for the diagnosis and therapy of cancer.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) possess unique magnetism and good biocompatibility, and they have been widely applied as contrast agents (CAs) for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Traditional CAs typically show a fixed enhanced signal, thus exhibiting the limitations of low sensitivity and a lack of specificity. Nowadays, the progress of stimulus-responsive IONPs allows alteration of the relaxation signal in response to internal stimuli of the tumor, or external stimuli, thus providing an opportunity to overcome those limitations. This review summarizes the current status of smart IONPs as tumor imaging MRI CAs that exhibit responsiveness to endogenous stimuli, such as pH, hypoxia, glutathione, and enzymes, or exogenous stimuli, such as magnets, light, and so on. We discuss the challenges and future opportunities for IONPs as MRI CAs and comprehensively illustrate the applications of these stimuli-responsive IONPs. This review will help provide guidance for designing IONPs as MRI CAs and further promote the reasonable design of magnetic nanoparticles and achieve early and accurate tumor detection.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based nanocarriers (PBNs) are the focus of extensive investigation because of their biocompatibility, low cost, wide availability, and chemical versatility, which allow a wide range of anticancer agents to be loaded within the nanocarriers. Similar to other nanocarriers, most PBNs are designed to extravasate out of tumor vessels, depending on the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. However, the EPR effect is compromised in some tumors due to the heterogeneity of tumor structures. Transvascular transport efficacy is decreased by complex blood vessels and condensed tumor stroma. The limited extravasation impedes efficient drug delivery into tumor parenchyma, and thus affects the subsequent tumor accumulation, which hinders the therapeutic effect of PBNs. Therefore, overcoming the biological barriers that restrict extravasation from tumor vessels is of great importance in PBN design. Many strategies have been developed to enhance the EPR effect that involve nanocarrier property regulation and tumor structure remodeling. Moreover, some researchers have proposed active transcytosis pathways that are complementary to the paracellular EPR effect to increase the transvascular extravasation efficiency of PBNs. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in the design of PBNs with enhanced transvascular transport to enable optimization of PBNs in the extravasation of the drug delivery process. We also discuss the obstacles and challenges that need to be addressed to clarify the transendothemial mechanism of PBNs and the potential interactions between extravasation and other drug delivery steps.

Abstract
Nanogels are three-dimensional networks at the nanoscale level that can be fabricated through physical or chemical processes using polymers. These nanoparticles' biocompatibility, notable stability, efficacious drug-loading capacity, and ligand-binding proficiency make them highly suitable for employment as drug-delivery vehicles. In addition, they exhibit the ability to react to both endogenous and exogenous stimuli, which may include factors such as temperature, illumination, pH levels, and a diverse range of other factors. This facilitates the consistent administration of the drug to the intended site. Alginate biopolymers have been utilized to encapsulate anticancer drugs due to their biocompatible nature, hydrophilic properties, and cost-effectiveness. The efficacy of alginate nano gel-based systems in cancer treatment has been demonstrated through multiple studies that endorse their progress toward clinical implementation. This paper comprehensively reviews alginate and its associated systems in drug delivery systems.

Abstract
With the rapid growth of the global economy and the global population, the production of solid waste has increased remarkably. Mushrooms are gaining popularity among researchers for their ability to turn waste into nutrients. However, a large number of by-products are produced during the industrial processing of mushrooms. Traditional waste management, focusing on the utilization and disposal of mushroom by-products, has attracted the attention of researchers. Meanwhile, the circular economy has become a multidisciplinary research field, and the valorization of mushroom by-products is a very important part of circular economy research. Various mushroom by-products of mushroom are reviewed in this paper. By-products are used in food as raw materials or functional components, in livestock and poultry feed after grinding/fermentation, and as electrochemical materials and papermaking materials. The by-products can also be used to produce ethanol and other biological sources of energy, as absorbing substances in sewage treatment, and as fertilizer in soil amendment. Mushroom processing by-products can be applied in various fields. To improve production efficiency, new extraction technology (including supercritical fluid technology and microwave extraction technology) can be adopted to increase the bioactive substance content in the by-products. Choosing appropriate processing temperature, time, and other processing conditions can also enhance product quality. Finally, more research is needed on the cost-effective utilization of the by-products and the feasibility of industrialization. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Cancer is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, irrespective of the level of human development. Globally, it was estimated that there were 19.3 million new cases of cancer and almost 10 million deaths from cancer in 2020. The importance of prevention, early detection as well as effective cancer therapies cannot be over-emphasized. One of the important strategies in cancer therapy is targeted drug delivery to the specific tumor sites. Nanogels are among the several drug delivery systems (DDS) being explored as potential candidates for targeted drug delivery in cancer therapy. Nanogels, which are new generation, versatile DDS with the possession of dual characteristics of hydrogels and nanoparticles have shown great potential as targeted DDS in cancer therapy. Nanogels are hydrogels with a three-dimensional (3D) tunable porous structure and a particle size in the nanometre range, from 20 to 200 nm. They have been visualized as ideal DDS with enormous drug loading capacity, and high stability. Nanogels can be modified to achieve active targeting and enhance drug accumulation in disease sites. They can be designed to be stimulus-responsive, and react to internal or external stimuli such as pH, temperature, light, redox, thus resulting in the controlled release of loaded drug. This prevents drug accumulation in non-target tissues and minimizes the side effects of the drug. Drugs with severe adverse effects, short circulation half-life, and easy degradability by enzymes, such as anti-cancer drugs, and proteins, are suitable for delivery by chemically cross-linked or physically assembled nanogel systems. This systematic review summarizes the evolution of nanogels for targeted drug delivery for cancer therapy over the last decade. On-going clinical trials and recent applications of nanogels as targeted DDS for cancer therapy will be discussed in detail. The review will be concluded with discussions on safety and regulatory considerations as well as future research prospects of nanogel-targeted drug delivery for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Designing novel systems for efficient cancer treatment and improving the quality of life for patients is a prime requirement in the healthcare sector. In this regard, theranostics have recently emerged as a unique platform, which combines the benefits of both diagnosis and therapeutics delivery. Theranostics have the desired contrast agent and the drugs combined in a single carrier, thus providing the opportunity for real-time imaging to monitor the therapy results. This helps in reducing the hazards related to treatment overdose or underdose and gives the possibility of personalized therapy. Polysaccharides, as natural biomolecules, have been widely explored to develop theranostics, as they act as a matrix for simultaneously loading both contrast agents and drugs for their utility in drug delivery and imaging. Additionally, their remarkable physicochemical attributes (biodegradability, satisfactory safety profile, abundance, and diversity in functionality and charge) can be tuned via postmodification, which offers numerous possibilities to develop theranostics with desired characteristics. Hence, we provide an overview of recent advances in polysaccharide matrix-based theranostics for drug delivery combined with magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, positron emission tomography, single photon emission computed tomography, and ultrasound imaging. Herein, we also summarize the toxicity assessment of polysaccharides, associated contrast agents, and nanotoxicity along with the challenges and future research directions.

Abstract
It is essential to synthesize a "diagnosis and therapy" integration nanocarrier for magnetic resonance imaging-guided breast cancer-targeted chemotherapy. Here, we report Fe3O4/P(NIPAM-AA-MAPEG) nanogels (MNLs) based on in situ loading of doxorubicin (DOX) by miniemulsion polymerization. Especially, propyl acrylic acid (AA) moieties were introduced to absorb DOX by electrostatic interactions and conjugated with the antibody herceptin (HER) through the amino-carboxyl coupling reaction. The size and morphology of MNLs could be adjusted by varying the polymerization parameters, such as the monomer feeding ratio, ferrofluid content, and cross-linker content. The MNLs showed superior stability in a physiological environment, but their structures were destroyed in an acidic environment to accelerate DOX release. The dissociation of the HER-DOX-MNLs accelerated the delivery of DOX and enhanced the therapeutic effects. The studies exhibited that the HER-DOX-MNLs could inhibit the tumor growth. In addition, the MNLs with a high magnetic content had the potential advantages in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of breast cancer diagnosis. The dual-targeted pH-responsive nanogels were successfully designed as a multifunctional nanocarrier for realizing HER2-positive breast cancer chemotherapy and diagnostics.

Abstract
Polysaccharides are natural polymers with hydrophilic, biocompatible and biodegradable characteristics and have many opportunities in the food and pharmaceutical sectors. This review focuses on the field of nano and microstructures whose internal structure is based on networked polysaccharide chains in 3D i.e., polysaccharide nanogels (NGs) and microgels (MGs). As it is observed the number of articles on NGs and MGs in peer reviewed scientific journals has been increasing over the last two decades. At the same time, the relative contribution of polysaccharides in this field is gaining place. This review focuses on the different applied methods for the fabrication of a variety of polysaccharide-based NGs and MGs and aims to highlight the recent advances on the subject and present their potentials and properties with regards to their integration in aspects of medicinal and food sciences. The presentation of the recent advances in the application of polysaccharide NGs and MGs is divided in materials with potential as emulsion stabilizers and materials with potential as carriers of bioactives. For applications in the medical sector the division is based on the fabrication processes and includes self-assembled, electrostatically complexed/ionically crosslinked and chemically crosslinked NGs and MGs. It is concluded that many advances are expected in the application of these polysaccharide-based materials and in particular as nutrient-loaded emulsion stabilizers, viscosity modifiers and co-assembled structures in combination with proteins.

Abstract
Owing to the distinctive constituents of tumor tissue from those healthy organs, nanomedicine strategies show significant potentials in smart drug delivery. Nowadays, stimuli-responsive nanogels are playing increasingly important roles in the application of cancer therapy because of their sensitivity to various internal or external physicochemical stimuli, which exhibit site-specific and markedly enhanced drug release. Besides, nanogels are promising as drug carriers because of their porous structures, good biocompatibility, large surface area, and excellent capability with drugs. Taking advantage of multiresponsiveness, recent years have witnessed the rapid evolution of stimulus-responsive nanogels from monoresponsive to multiresponsive systems; however, there lacks a comprehensive review summarizing these reports. In this Review, we discuss the properties, synthesis, and characterization of nanogels. Moreover, tumor microenvironment and corresponding designing strategies for stimuli-response nanogels, both exogenous (temperature, magnetic field, light) and endogenous (pH, biomolecular, redox, ROS, pressure, hypoxia) are summarized on the basis of the recent advances in multistimuli-responsive nanogel systems. Nanogel and two-dimensional material composites show excellent performance in the field of constructing multistimulus-responsive nanoparticles and precise intelligent drug release integrated system for multimodal cancer diagnosis and therapy. Finally, potential progresses and suggestions are provided for the further design of hybrid nanogels based on emerging two-dimensional materials.

Abstract
Currently, research in nanoparticles as a drug delivery system has broadened to include their use as a delivery system for bioactive substances and a diagnostic or theranostic system. Nanogels, nanoparticles containing a high amount of water, have gained attention due to their advantages of colloidal stability, core-shell structure, and adjustable structural components. These advantages provide the potential to design and fabricate multifunctional nanosystems for various biomedical applications. Modified or functionalized polymers and some metals are components that markedly enhance the features of the nanogels, such as tunable amphiphilicity, biocompatibility, stimuli-responsiveness, or sensing moieties, leading to specificity, stability, and tracking abilities. Here, we review the diverse designs of core-shell structure nanogels along with studies on the fabrication and demonstration of the responsiveness of nanogels to different stimuli, temperature, pH, reductive environment, or radiation. Furthermore, additional biomedical applications are presented to illustrate the versatility of the nanogels.

Abstract
Biocompatible magnetic hydrogels provide a great source of synthetic materials, which facilitate remote stimuli, enabling safer biological and environmental applications. Prominently, the ex situ and in situ magnetic phase integration is used to fabricate magneto-driven hydrogels, exhibiting varied behaviours in aqueous media. Therefore, it is essential to understand their physicochemical properties to target the best material for each application. In this investigation, three different types of magnetic alginate beads were synthesised. First, by direct, ex situ, calcium chloride gelation of a mixture of Fe3O4 nanoparticles with an alginate solution. Second, by in situ synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles inside of the alginate beads and third, by adding an extra protection alginate layer on the in situ synthesised Fe3O4 nanoparticles alginate beads. The three types of magnetic beads were chemically and magnetically characterised. It was found that they exhibited particular stability to different pH and ionic strength conditions in aqueous solution. These are essential properties to be controlled when used for magneto-driven applications such as targeted drug delivery and water purification. Therefore, this fundamental study will direct the path to the selection of the best magnetic bead synthesis protocol according to the defined magneto-driven application.

Abstract
Photo-chemotherapy (PCT) reveals great potential in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment, therefore the construct of smart PCT nano-agents with high photothermal conversion efficiency and accurate drug delivery is of great significant. Herein, a novel hybrid nanomaterial MGO-TCA-FA has been designed and constructed by grafting the triformyl cholic acid (TCA) and folic acid (FA) on the surface of Fe3O4 modified graphene oxide (MGO). The doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) as a model drug could be effectively loaded on the MGO-TCA-FA via hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking (the drug loading amount was 1040 mg/g). The formed MGO-TCA-FA@DOX has been developed to be an effective PCT nanoplatform with the advantages of multiple-targeted drug delivery, near-infrared light (NIR) and pH triggered drug release, and photothermal conversion efficiency. In vitro experiments showed that compared with other cancer cells and normal liver cells, MGO-TCA-FA@DOX could specifically target liver cancer cells and presented significant killing ability to liver cancer cells. More importantly, in vivo experiments indicated that PCT synergistic therapy (MGO-TCA-FA@DOX) revealed the best tumor inhibition (the tumor inhibition rate was about 85%) compared with chemotherapy and photothermal therapy alone. Thus, this study supplied a viable multiple-targeted PCT nano-agent for chemo-photothermal combination therapy of liver cancer.

Abstract
Current challenge of using cytokines is its poor distribution and systemic side effects. To avoid this issue, we prepared the tumor-targeted and microenvironment-responsive nanocarriers (TRN), which were consisted of α-tocopheryl succinate (α-TOS) loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles as cores, and surface-modified by thioketal-linkage, electrostatically coated with carboxymethyl chitin, and further anchored glucose-regulated protein 78-binding peptide as shells for encapsulating IL-12. TRN showed a size of 260 nm after encapsulated IL-12 and α-TOS with loading content of 0.0206% and 7.21%, respectively, and exhibited good biocompatibility to 4 T1 cells and macrophages. Moreover, IL-12/α-TOS loaded TRN displayed obvious anti-tumor efficacy on BALB/c nude mice bearing 4 T1 tumors, which was derived from promoted targeting to tumor tissue, endocytosed by macrophages and locally release IL-12 to subsequently repolarize tumor-associated macrophages into tumoricidal M1 phenotype with reduced side effects. The nanosystem exhibited as a promising strategy with functional conversion of macrophages in tumor microenvironment for anti-tumor therapy.

Abstract
Alginate is an edible heteropolysaccharide that abundantly available in the brown seaweed and the capsule of bacteria such as Azotobacter sp. and Pseudomonas sp. Owing to alginate gel forming capability, it is widely used in food, textile and paper industries; and to a lesser extent in biomedical applications as biomaterial to promote wound healing and tissue regeneration. This is evident from the rising use of alginate-based dressing for heavily exuding wound and their mass availability in the market nowadays. However, alginate also has limitation. When in contact with physiological environment, alginate could gelate into softer structure, consequently limits its potential in the soft tissue regeneration and becomes inappropriate for the usage related to load bearing body parts. To cater this problem, wide range of materials have been added to alginate structure, producing sturdy composite materials. For instance, the incorporation of adhesive peptide and natural polymer or synthetic polymer to alginate moieties creates an improved composite material, which not only possesses better mechanical properties compared to native alginate, but also grants additional healing capability and promote better tissue regeneration. In addition, drug release kinetic and cell viability can be further improved when alginate composite is used as encapsulating agent. In this review, preparation of alginate and alginate composite in various forms (fibre, bead, hydrogel, and 3D-printed matrices) used for biomedical application is described first, followed by the discussion of latest trend related to alginate composite utilization in wound dressing, drug delivery, and tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
The treatment of cancer includes several conventional therapies like surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, etc. but mostly associated with limitations like off-targeted action, fatigue and organ toxicity. The emergence of nanotechnology-enabled drug delivery systems shows revolutionary development to overcome the limitations of such therapies. Magnetic nanocomposites are the new area of research that consists of nanoscale magnetic materials for triggering the release of active in response to an external magnetic field. For targeted drug delivery and enhancing the biocompatibility, effective functionalization of magnetic nanocomposites is required. Therefore, several biological molecules like carbohydrate polymers, proteins, nucleic acids, antibodies, etc. are used. This review article focuses on the insights of advances in the development of carbohydrate-based magnetic nanocomposites for safe and effective cancer treatment. Carbohydrate-based magnetic nanocomposites offer significant advantages like greater stability, higher biocompatibility and lower toxicity with better physicochemical properties such as higher magnetic moments and anisotropy, larger heating properties, etc. Magnetic nanocomposites explore in almost all the areas of cancer therapeutics for drug delivery carrier, as antineoplastic and MRI contrast agents and in photothermal, photodynamic and in combinational therapies for the development of safer nanocarriers. Such progressive trend of carbohydrate-based magnetic nanocomposites will encourage the researchers for better site-specific delivery with higher safety profile in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX), an anthracycline drug, is widely used for the treatment of several cancers like osteosarcoma, cervical carcinoma, breast cancer, etc. DOX lacks target specificity; thereby it also affects normal cells thus resulting in several side-effects. A drug delivery system (DDS) can be used to deliver the drug in a controlled and sustained manner at a targeted site within the body. Various DDS like nanoemulsions, polymeric nanoparticles, and liposomes are used for loading DOX. Alginate, a polysaccharide is widely used for fabricating DDS due to its biodegradable and bio-compatible properties. Alginates, in combination with other biomaterials, have been extensively used as a novel drug delivery carrier for DOX. Alginate provides a platform for drug delivery in different forms like hydrogels, nanogels, nanoparticles, microparticles, graphene oxide systems, magnetic systems, etc. Herein, we briefly describe alginate in combination with other materials as a nanocarrier for targeted delivery of DOX for anti-cancer treatment.

Abstract
In the last decade, the use of nanotheranostics as emerging diagnostic and therapeutic tools for various diseases, especially cancer, is held great attention. Up to date, several approaches have been employed in order to develop smart nanotheranostics, which combine bioactive targeting on specific tissues as well as diagnostic properties. The nanotheranostics can deliver therapeutic agents by concomitantly monitor the therapy response in real-time. Consequently, the possibility of over- or under-dosing is decreased. Various non-invasive imaging techniques have been used to quantitatively monitor the drug delivery processes. Radiolabeling of nanomaterials is widely used as powerful diagnostic approach on nuclear medicine imaging. In fact, various radiolabeled nanomaterials have been designed and developed for imaging tumors and other lesions due to their efficient characteristics. Inorganic nanoparticles as gold, silver, silica based nanomaterials or organic nanoparticles as polymers, carbon based nanomaterials, liposomes have been reported as multifunctional nanotheranostics. In this review, the imaging modalities according to their use in various diseases are summarized, providing special details for radiolabeling. In further, the most current nanotheranostics categorized via the used nanomaterials are also summed up. To conclude, this review can be beneficial for medical and pharmaceutical society as well as material scientists who work in the field of nanotheranostics since they can use this research as guide for producing newer and more efficient nanotheranostics.

Abstract
Compared to normal tissue, solid tumors exhibit a lower pH value. Such pH gradient can be used to design pH-sensitive nanogels for selective drug delivery. The acid-sensitive elements in the nanogel cause it to swell/degrade rapidly, followed by rapid drug release.

Abstract
Development of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) based theranostics has suffered due to its self-contradictory requirements on water dispersity and drug loadings. Generally well-dispersed SPIONs have excellent MRI performance but are insensitive to magnetism mediated delivery. Besides, loading hydrophobic drugs also hampers the stability of SPIONs which is critical for their biomedical applications. Considering these aspects, we employed curcumin as a cross-linking agent to facilitate the modular assembly of drug and monodisperse SPIONs (Cur/ALN-β-CD-SPIONs). Interestingly, the saturation magnetization of Cur/ALN-β-CD-SPIONs is higher than that of ALN-β-CD-SPIONs, and the value of r2 indicating the negative contrast ability increases to 389.96 mM-1 s-1. Furthermore, the Cur/ALN-β-CD-SPIONs are very stable in PBS buffer over 3 weeks. The mice treated with Cur/ALN-β-CD-SPIONs by tail vein injection displayed a better tumor inhibition effect than that of free curcumin. This study provides a simple method for modular assembly of drug and monodisperse SPIONs, which is crucial to the design of SPIONs with superior T2-imaging performance and drug delivery.

Abstract
A smart hydrogel with pH/magnetic dual sensitivity was synthesized by in-situ synthesis of Fe3O4 inside carboxymethyl chitin hydrogel matrix prepared from Hericium erinaceus residue. The structure, pH/magnetic sensitivity, swelling and drug release behavior of the prepared hydrogels were investigated. The results showed that Fe3O4 nanoparticles were successfully synthesized and uniformly distributed within the hydrogels. The prepared hydrogels could be attracted by the magnet and exhibited sustained shrinkage behavior at low pH, with the desirable pH/magnetic sensitivity. The formed Fe3O4 could be developed inside the hydrogels by increasing the concentrations of precursor Fe2+/Fe3+ ions, and the magnetic sensitivity of hydrogels was enhanced, while the pH sensitivity and swelling degree were weakened. The Fe3O4 content-dependent behavior of the prepared hydrogels suggested the adjustable properties of hydrogels. The release of 5-Fu in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids followed the Fick diffusion mechanism and showed different release rates, indicating the pH-controlled drug release behavior.

Abstract
Solid tumors form a permissive microenvironment with irregular features, including high pressured tumor interstitial fluid with acidic pH, co-adaptation of cancer cells with other cells like the immune system cells, abnormal metabolism and anomalous overexpression of various pieces of molecular machinery. The functional expressions of several oncomarkers in different solid tumors have led to the development of targeted drug-delivery systems (DDSs). As a new class of DDSs, stimuli-responsive nanomedicines (SRNMs) have been developed using advanced nanobiomaterials such as biopolymers that show excellent biocompatibility with low inherent immunogenicity. In this review, we aim to overview different types of SRNMs, present deep insights into the stimuli-responsive biopolymers and discuss the most up-to-date progress in the design and development of SRNMs used as advanced DDSs for targeted therapy of cancer.

Abstract
Nanogels as a versatile vehicle for doxorubicin have attracted great attention during the last decade. Since a nanogel composite device transport encapsulated drugs to the site of action and release them in a desirable time-frame, it could provide higher therapeutic effect. By implementation of different polymers, polymer/inorganic NPs and various crosslinking chemistry, it is possible to fabricate novel composite nanogel systems with favorable characteristics such as smart intelligent systems or multipurpose platforms. Due to high stability, good drug loading capacity for hydrophobic and hydrophilic agents, nanogels introduce great opportunity in pharmaceutical innovations. Composite nanogels show capability in gene, drug and diagnostic agents' delivery while providing an ideal platform for theranostic purposes as multifunctional systems. Doxorubicin as an anticancer agent is widely used against numerous cancers. Due to high systemic toxicity of doxorubicin, there is still need for its safe and specific delivery to the site of action. In this regard, so many efforts have been put in by the researchers for preparation of different nanogel formulations of doxorubicin in order to produce more efficient formulations. This review focuses on design, fabrication, advantages and disadvantages of composite nanogel-based doxorubicin formulations.

Abstract
Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional contrast agents (CAs) for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). They have been extensively investigated as CAs due to their high biocompatibility and excellent magnetic properties. Furthermore, the ease of functionalization of their surfaces with different types of ligands (antibodies, peptides, sugars, etc.) opens up the possibility of carrying out molecular MRI. Thus, IONPs functionalized with epithelial growth factor receptor antibodies, short peptides, like RGD, or aptamers, among others, have been proposed for the diagnosis of various types of cancer, including breast, stomach, colon, kidney, liver or brain cancer. In addition to cancer diagnosis, different types of IONPs have been developed for other applications, such as the detection of brain inflammation or the early diagnosis of thrombosis. This review addresses key aspects in the development of IONPs for MRI applications, namely, synthesis of the inorganic core, functionalization processes to make IONPs biocompatible and also to target them to specific tissues or cells, and finally in vivo studies in animal models, with special emphasis on tumor models.

Abstract
For renal clearable nanoagents, it is challenging to delay the renal clearance to acquire efficient tumor accumulation. Herein, we report sodium alginate (SA) stabilized gold (Au) NCs. The Au NCs are of high biocompatibility and renal clearable. Contributed from the ligands of SA, the half-life (t1/2) of Au NCs is prolonged to ∼9.3 h, enhancing the tumor accumulation rate to 10.4 %ID/g. In tumor microenvironment (TME), the Au NCs are stimulated to functionally aggregate, which switches on the photothermal effect. Animal experiments prove that Au NCs aggregates are efficient photothermal therapy (PTT) agents for both local treatment of single tumors and systemic treatment of double-tumor models without causing noticeable side effects, confirming the biosecurity of Au NCs and systemic PTT. The switchable strategy of PTT may signify the establishment of a new systemic therapeutic methodology.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-nanoparticle (NP) hybrid nanoclusters have great potential to revitalize diverse bioapplications; however, fabricating polysaccharide-based hybrid nanoclusters composed of high-quality NPs generated in the organic phase remains a challenge. Here, using calcium alginate as a polysaccharide/tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAOH) combination, we report a novel approach to the design of alginate-hydrophobic magnetic-plasmonic core-shell (MPCS) NP hybrid nanoclusters (A-MPCS HNCs). Furthermore, we observe the dependence of the formation of A-MPCS HNCs on the TMAOH concentration. The enhanced performance in both magnetic resonance r2 relaxivity and photoacoustic (PA) signals and the biocompatibility/bioactivity as well as the in vivo performance of A-MPCS HNCs shows them to be a promising magnetic resonance/photoacoustic dual-mode imaging agent. Our strategy could open doors to the use of other precious high-quality nanomaterials created in the organic phase via well-established synthetic chemistry in the design of alginate-hydrophobic nanomaterial hybrid nanoclusters, giving rise to novel and multifarious bioapplications.

Regenerable bagasse-based carbon activated by in situ formation of zero-valent zinc microparticles for high-performance degradation of amoxicillin in water. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2019; 26:27677-27686.

Abstract
Increasing degradation of amoxicillin in water by low-cost advanced functional activated carbon-based materials derived from bagasse is an effective and economic way to remove the antibiotic residue pollutant and for high-valued utilization and transformation of plant wastes. In this work, bagasse was pyrolyzed and Zn2+ was activated for designing a high-efficiency bagasse-based activated carbon, which was characterized by FTIR, XRD, XPS, SEM, EDS, and ζ potential analyses. These analyses illustrated the mechanism of amoxicillin degradation, and microscale zero-valent zinc in bagasse-based activated carbon has a key role in amoxicillin degradation. Amoxicillin was broken down by reductive degraded radicals, which were produced by microscale zero-valent zinc corrosion in water. After the amoxicillin degradation, the byproduct of zinc hydroxide being adsorbed onto the used bagasse-based activated carbon can provide possibility of sustainable regeneration. Mass spectra analysis illustrated the main degradation products of amoxicillin. The kinetic experiments were adopted to observe the process of amoxicillin degradation, followed by the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The isotherm experiments demonstrated that the maximum amoxicillin degradation capacity of bagasse-based activated carbon was about 46 mg g-1. The bagasse wastes were used as carbon source to design potential advanced activated carbon materials for increasing degradation of amoxicillin in water.
