Abstract
Metal-ion-based self-assembly supramolecular theranostics exhibit excellent performance in biomedical applications owing to their potential superiorities for simultaneous precise diagnosis, targeted drug delivery, and monitoring the response to therapy in real-time. Specially, the rational designed systems could achieve specific in vivo self-assembly through complexation or ionic interaction to improve tissue-specific accumulation, penetration, and cell internalization, thereby reducing toxicities of drugs in diagnostics and therapy. Furthermore, such imaging traceable nanosystems could provide real-timely information of drug accumulation and therapeutic effects in a non-invasive and safe manner. Herein, the article highlights the recent prominent applications based on the metal ions self-assembly in cancer treatment. This strategy may open up new research directions to develop novel drug delivery systems for cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Benefiting from the blooming interaction of nanotechnology and biotechnology, biosynthetic cellular membrane vesicles (Bio-MVs) have shown superior characteristics for therapeutic transportation because of their hydrophilic cavity and hydrophobic bilayer structure, as well as their inherent biocompatibility and negligible immunogenicity. These excellent cell-like features with specific functional protein expression on the surface can invoke their remarkable ability for Bio-MVs based recombinant protein therapy to facilitate the advanced synergy in poly-therapy. To date, various tactics have been developed for Bio-MVs surface modification with functional proteins through hydrophobic insertion or multivalent electrostatic interactions. While the Bio-MVs grow through genetically engineering strategies can maintain binding specificity, sort orders, and lead to strict information about artificial proteins in a facile and sustainable way. In this progress report, the most current technology of Bio-MVs is discussed, with an emphasis on their multi-functionalities as "tailorable shells" for delivering bio-functional moieties and therapeutic entities. The most notable success and challenges via genetically engineered tactics to achieve the new generation of Bio-MVs are highlighted. Besides, future perspectives of Bio-MVs in novel bio-nanotherapy are provided.

Abstract
Background Drugs that work based on the mechanism of RNA interference have shown strong potential in cancer gene therapy. Although significant progress has been made in small interfering RNA (siRNA) design and manufacturing, ideal delivery system remains a limitation for the development of siRNA-based drugs. Particularly, it is necessary to focus on parameters including delivery efficiency, stability, and safety when developing siRNA formulations for cancer therapy. Methods In this work, a novel degradable siRNA delivery system cRGD-R9-PEG-PEI-Cholesterol (rrPPC) was synthesized based on low molecular weight polyethyleneimine (PEI). Functional groups including cholesterol, cell penetrating peptides (CPPs), and poly(ethylene oxide) were introduced to PEI backbone to attain enhanced transfection efficiency and biocompatibility. Results The synthesized rrPPC was dispersed as nanoparticles in water with an average size of 195 nm and 41.9 mV in potential. rrPPC nanoparticles could efficiently deliver siRNA into C26 clone cancer cells and trigger caveolae-mediated pathway during transmembrane transportation. By loading the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) targeting siRNA, rrPPC/STAT3 siRNA (rrPPC/siSTAT3) complex demonstrated strong anti-cancer effects in multiple colon cancer models following local delivery. In addition, intravenous (IV) injection of rrPPC/siSTAT3 complex efficiently suppressed lung metastasis tumor progression with ideal in vivo safety. Conclusion Our results provide evidence that rrPPC nanoparticles constitute a potential candidate vector for siRNA-based colon cancer gene therapy.

Abstract
The delivery of nanomedicines into internal areas of solid tumors is a great challenge for the design of chemotherapeutic drugs and the realization of their successful application. Herein, we synthesized stable and efficient selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) with an ideal size and a transcellular transport capability for the penetration and treatment of a solid tumor, utilizing Tw-80 as a dispersing agent and mushroom polysaccharide lentinan (LET) as a decorator. In vitro cellular experiments demonstrated that this nanosystem, LET-Tw-SeNPs, renders significant cellular uptake of HepG2 by receptor-mediated endocytosis and exhibits predominant transcellular transport and penetration capacity towards HepG2 tumor spheroids. Moreover, this therapeutic agent simultaneously inhibits the proliferation and migration of HepG2 cells via a cell cycle arrest pathway. Internalized LET-Tw-SeNPs give rise to the overproduction of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus inducing mitochondrial rupture. Meanwhile, pharmacokinetic analysis showed that LET-Tw-SeNPs displayed a long half-life in blood. Altogether, this study demonstrates an inventive strategy for designing nanosystems with high permeability and low blood clearance, in order to achieve efficient in-depth tumor drug delivery and future clinical treatment of solid tumors.

Abstract
Mitochondria-targeting cancer therapies have achieved unprecedented advances attributed to their superior ability for improving drug delivery efficiency and producing an enhanced therapeutic effect. Herein, we report a mitochondria-targeting camptothecin (CPT) polyprodrug system (MCPS) covalently decorated with a high-proportioned CPT content, which can realize drug release specifically responsive to a tumor microenvironment. The nonlinear structure of MCPS can form water-soluble unimolecular micelles with high micellar stability and improved drug accumulation in tumoral cells/tissues. Furthermore, a classical mitochondria-targeting agent, triphenylphosphonium bromide, was tethered in this prodrug system, which causes mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization and mediates the transport of CPT into mitochondria. The disulfide bond in MCPS can be cleaved by an intracellular reductant such as glutathione, leading to enhanced destruction of mitochondria DNA and cell apoptosis induced by a high level of reactive oxygen species. The systematic analyses both in vitro and in vivo indicated the excellent tumor inhibition effect and biosafety of MCPS, which is believed to be an advantageous nanoplatform for subcellular organelle-specific chemotherapy of cancer.

Abstract
Aim: Nanotheranostics consisting of highly-fluorescent quantum dots coupled with gelatin/chondroitin layer-by-layer assembled nanocapsules were developed. Materials & methods: The hydrophobic drugs celecoxib (CXB) and rapamycin (RAP) were co-loaded into the oily core of nanocapsules (NCs) to enable synergistic growth inhibition of breast cancer cells. To overcome the nonspecific binding of actively targeted CS-NCs with normal cells, a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-2)-degradable cationic gelatin layer was electrostatically deposited onto the surface of the negatively-charged CS-NCs. Results: The prepared nanocarriers displayed strong fluorescence which enabled tracing their internalization into cancer cells. An enhanced cytotoxicity of the NCs against breast cancer cells was demonstrated. In vivo, the nanoplatforms displayed superior antitumor efficacy as well as nonimmunogenic response. Conclusion: Therefore, these multifunctional nanoplatforms could be used as potential cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Gene therapy has provided an alternative strategy for cancer therapy. As an important cytokine, interleukin-22 (IL-22) is not only critical in reinforcing innate immune defenses and tissue regeneration, but also involved in the initial establishment of tumors. A soluble-secreted receptor of the cytokine IL-22, IL-22 binding protein (IL-22BP), binds IL-22 and prevents its binding to the functional transmembrane receptor IL-22R1 complex, inhibiting IL-22-based intracellular cancer proliferation signal. In this work, a novel IL-22BP-based cancer gene therapy strategy was reported for the first time. It was established by delivering IL-22BP gene with a newly developed non-viral gene vector DMP. The DMP cationic micelles were prepared by modifying monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(ε-caprolactone) with DOTAP lipid through self-assembling. The anti-cancer efficacy of the DMP/IL-22BP complex was studied on a colon cancer model by intraperitoneal administration. Our results demonstrated that the secretory expressed IL-22BP cytokine effectively inhibited cancer growth both in vitro and in vivo. Multiple anti-cancer mechanisms including IL-22 blocking, apoptosis inducing, lymphocyte infiltration and angiogenesis inhibition were indicated to be involved while no pathology changes were observed in healthy tissues. These results suggest the DMP/IL-22BP complex to be a potential candidate for cancer gene therapy. Cationic DMP micelle delivered interleukin-22BP gene efficiently inhibits colon carcinoma growth, providing a novel strategy for cancer gene therapy.![]()
