Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) heptamethine cyanine (HCy) dyes are promising photothermal transducers for image-guided cancer treatment owing to their prominent photophysical properties and high photothermal conversion ability. However, HCy photothermal transducers usually have poor photostability due to degradation induced by the self-generated reactive oxygen species. Herein, a novel mitochondria-targeting dimeric HCy dye, named dimeric oBHCy, is rationally designed, exhibiting strong near-infrared II (NIR-II) fluorescence emission, high photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE), and excellent photostability. The large π-conjugation and drastic intramolecular motion of the diphenol rotor in the dimeric oBHCy enhance the nonradiative energy dissipation and suppress the intersystem crossing process, thereby achieving a high PCE (49.2%) and improved photostability. Impressively, dimeric oBHCy can precisely target mitochondria and induce mitochondrial damage upon NIR light irradiation. Under the guidance of in vivo NIR-II fluorescence imaging, efficient NIR light-activated photothermal therapy of 4T1 breast tumors is accomplished with a tumor inhibitory rate of 96% following a single injection of the dimeric oBHCy. This work offers an innovative strategy for designing cyanine photothermal transducers with integrated NIR-II fluorescence and photothermal properties for efficient cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Second near-infrared (NIR-II) fluorescence imaging shows huge application prospects in clinical disease diagnosis and surgical navigation, while it is still a big challenge to exploit high performance NIR-II dyes with long-wavelength absorption and high fluorescence quantum yield. Herein, based on planar π-conjugated donor-acceptor-donor systems, three NIR-II dyes (TP-DBBT, TP-TQ1, and TP-TQ2) were synthesized with bulk steric hindrance, and the influence of acceptor engineering on absorption/emission wavelengths, fluorescence efficiency and photothermal properties was systematically investigated. Compared with TP-DBBT and TP-TQ2, the TP-TQ1 based on 6,7-diphenyl-[1,2,5]thiadiazoloquinoxaline can well balance absorption/emission wavelengths, NIR-II fluorescence brightness and photothermal effects. And the TP-TQ1 nanoparticles (NPs) possess high absorption ability at a peak absorption of 877 nm, with a high relative quantum yield of 0.69% for large steric hindrance hampering the close π-π stacking interactions. Furthermore, the TP-TQ1 NPs show a desirable photothermal conversion efficiency of 48% and good compatibility. In vivo experiments demonstrate that the TP-TQ1 NPs can serve as a versatile theranostic agent for NIR-II fluorescence/photoacoustic imaging-guided tumor phototherapy. The molecular planarization strategy provides an approach for designing efficient NIR-II fluorophores with extending absorption/emission wavelength, high fluorescence brightness, and outstanding phototheranostic performance.

Abstract
Organic fluorescent molecules with emission in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) biological window have aroused increasing investigation in cancer phototheranostics. Among these studies, Benzobisthiadiazole (BBT), with high electron affinity, is widely utilized as the electron acceptor in constructing donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) structured fluorophores with intensive near-infrared (NIR) absorption and NIR-II fluorescence. Until now, numerous BBT-based NIR-II dyes have been employed in tumor phototheranostics due to their exceptional structure tunability, biocompatibility, and photophysical properties. This review systematically overviews the research progress of BBT-based small molecular NIR-II dyes and focuses on molecule design and bioapplications. First, the molecular engineering strategies to fine-tune the photophysical properties in constructing the high-performance BBT-based NIR-II fluorophores are discussed in detail. Then, their biological applications in optical imaging and phototherapy are highlighted. Finally, the current challenges and future prospects of BBT-based NIR-II fluorescent dyes are also summarized. This review is believed to significantly promote the further progress of BBT-derived NIR-II fluorophores for cancer phototheranostics.

Synergistic effect of photothermal and magnetic hyperthermia for in situ activation of Fenton reaction in tumor microenvironment for chemodynamic therapy. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2024; 157:213724.

Abstract
Traditional cancer treatments are ineffective and cause severe adverse effects. Thus, the development of chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has the potential for in situ catalysis of endogenous molecules into highly toxic species, which would then effectively destroy cancer cells. However, the shortage of high-performance nanomaterials hinders the broad clinical application of this approach. In present study, an effective therapeutic platform was developed using a simple hydrothermal method for the in-situ activation of the Fenton reaction within the tumor microenvironment (TME) to generate substantial quantities of •OH and ultimately destroy cancer cells, which could be further synergistically increased by photothermal therapy (PHT) and magnetic hyperthermia (MHT) aided by FeMoO4 nanorods (NRs). The produced FeMoO4 NRs were used as MHT/PHT and Fenton catalysts. The photothermal conversion efficiency of the FeMoO4 NRs was 31.75 %. In vitro and \ experiments demonstrated that the synergistic combination of MHT/PHT/CDT notably improved anticancer efficacy. This work reveals the significant efficacy of CDT aided by both photothermal and magnetic hyperthermia and offers a feasible strategy for the use of iron-based nanoparticles in the field of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) effectively suppresses tumor growth with high selectivity. Nevertheless, PTT may cause an inflammatory response that leads to tumor recurrence and treatment resistance, which are the main disadvantages of PTT. Herein, monodisperse hafnium carbide nanoparticles (HfC NPs) were successfully prepared for noninflammatory PTT of cancer. HfC NPs possessed satisfactory near-infrared (NIR) absorption, good photothermal conversion efficiency (PTCE, 36.8 %) and photothermal stability. Furthermore, holding large surface areas and intrinsic redox-active sites, HfC NPs exhibited excellent anti-inflammatory properties due to their antioxidant and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymatic activities. In vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed that HfC NPs converted light energy into heat energy upon NIR laser irradiation to kill cancer cells through PTT and achieved a better therapeutic effect by anti-inflammatory effects after PTT. This work highlights that multifunctional HfC NPs can be applied in noninflammatory PTT with outstanding safety and efficacy.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) systems typically do not possess intrinsic tumor-targeting capability, resulting in indiscriminate thermal damage to both cancer and normal cells. Herein, a low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-based nanosystem (denoted as MTTQ@LDL) is reported for targeted photothermal killing of cancer cells. Such a nanosystem is fabricated by reconstituting the lipophilic core of LDL with an organic photothermal agent MTTQ. The reconstitution process improves the supramolecular photothermal effects of MTTQ assemblies, which contributes to the significantly enhanced photothermal conversion efficiency (41.3% vs. 16.2%). MTTQ@LDL can actively target LDL receptor-overexpressed cancer cells via receptor-mediated endocytosis, enabling the selective killing of cancer cells over normal cells (98% vs. 7%) post-NIR irradiation. Reconstituted LDL can serve as a promising platform for targeted delivery of functional materials, holding great promise in tumor eradication in vivo.

Abstract
Lyotropic liquid crystals are self-assembled, non-lamellar, and mesophase nanostructured materials that have garnered significant attention as drug carriers. Cubosomes, a subtype of lyotropic liquid crystalline nanoparticles, possess three-dimensional structures that display bicontinuous cubic liquid-crystalline patterns. These patterns are formed through the self-organization of unsaturated monoglycerides (amphphilic lipids such as glyceryl monooleate or phytantriol), followed by stabilization using steric polymers (poloxamers). Owing to their bicontinuous structure and steric polymer-based stabilization, cubosomes have been demonstrated to possess greater entrapment efficiency for hydrophobic drugs compared to liposomes, while also exhibiting high stability. In the past decade, there has been significant interest in cubosomes due to their ability to deliver therapeutic and contrast agents for cancer treatment and imaging with minimal side effects, establishing them as a safe and effective approach. Concerning these advantages, the present review elaborates on the general aspects, composition, and preparation techniques of cubosomes, followed by explanations of their mechanisms of drug loading and release patterns. Furthermore, the review provides meticulous discussions on the use of cubosomes in the treatment and imaging of various types of cancer, culminating in the enumeration of patents related to cubosome-based drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Currently, clinical photothermal therapy (PTT) is greatly limited by the poor tissue penetration of the excitation light sources in visible (390-780 nm) and first near-infrared (NIR-I, 780-900 nm) window. Herein, based on space and bond synergistic conjugation, a multiple-aniline organic small molecule (TPD), is synthesized for high-efficiency second near-infrared (NIR-II, 900-1700 nm) photoacoustic imaging guided PTT. With the heterogeneity of six nitrogen atoms in TPD, the lone electrons on the nitrogen atom and the π bond orbital on the benzene ring form multielectron conjugations with highly delocalized state, which endowed TPD with strong NIR-II absorption (maximum peak at 925 nm). Besides, according to the single molecular reorganization, the alkyl side chains on TPD make more free space for intramolecular motion to enhance the photothermal conversion ability. Forming TPD nanoparticles (NPs) in J-aggregation, they show a further bathochromic-shifted absorbance (maximum peak at 976 nm) as well as a high photothermal conversion efficiency (66.7%) under NIR-II laser irradiation. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that TPD NPs can effectively inhibit the growth of tumors without palpable side effects. The study provides a novel NIR-II multiple-aniline structure based on multielectron hyperconjugation, and opens a new design thought for photothermal agents.

Abstract
With the popularization and application of artificial intelligence and medical image big data in the field of medical image, the universality of modes and the rapid development of deep learning have endowed multi-mode fusion technology with great development potential. Technologies of 5G and artificial intelligence have rapidly promoted the innovation of online hospitals. To assist doctors in the remote diagnosis of cancer lesions, this article proposes a cancer localization and recognition model based on magnetic resonance images. We combine a convolution neural network with Transformer to achieve local features and global context information, which can suppress the interference of noise and background regions in magnetic resonance imaging. We design a module combining convolutional neural networks and Transformer architecture, which interactively fuses the extracted features to increase the cancer localization accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. We extract tumor regions and perform feature fusion to further improve the interactive ability of features and achieve cancer recognition. Our model can achieve an accuracy of 88.65%, which means our model can locate cancer regions in MRI images and effectively identify them. Furthermore, our model can be embedded into the online hospital system by 5G technology to provide technical support for the construction of network hospitals.

Abstract
A novel croconic acid-bisindole dye CR-630 with a morpholine ring showed good water-solubility and obvious lysosome-targeting. The protonation of the nitrogen atom in the indole and lysosome-targeting of morpholine ring let it exhibit stronger pH-responsive NIR/PA imaging and photothermal effect in the lysosome acidic microenvironment (pH 4.0-5.5) than in the tumor acidic microenvironment. In the animal study, compound CR-630 could NIRF/PA image in the tumor tissues in 1.5-2.0 h, effectively inhibit the growth of the tumor, and even ablate the tumor at the drug dose of 1 mg/kg. It also demonstrated good biosafety. This study gives a new idea to develop water-solubility organic dyes with lysosome targeting, stronger pH-responsive NIRF/PA imaging and PTT for breast cancer.

Abstract
Malignant brain tumors, a heterogeneous group of primary and metastatic neoplasms in the central nervous system (CNS), are notorious for their highly invasive and devastating characteristics, dismal prognosis and low survival rate. Recently, near-infrared (NIR) optical imaging modalities including fluorescence imaging (FLI) and photoacoustic imaging (PAI) have displayed bright prospect in innovation of brain tumor diagnoses, due to their merits, like noninvasiveness, high spatiotemporal resolution, good sensitivity and large penetration depth. Importantly, these imaging techniques have been widely used to vividly guide diverse brain tumor therapies in a real-time manner with high accuracy and efficiency. Herein, we provide a systematic summary of the state-of-the-art NIR contrast agents (CAs) for brain tumors single-modal imaging (e.g., FLI and PAI), dual-modal imaging (e.g., FLI/PAI, FLI/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and PAI/MRI) and triple-modal imaging (e.g., MRI/FLI/PAI and MRI/PAI/computed tomography (CT) imaging). In addition, we update the most recent progress on the NIR optical imaging-guided therapies, like single-modal (e.g., photothermal therapy (PTT), chemotherapy, surgery, photodynamic therapy (PDT), gene therapy and gas therapy), dual-modal (e.g., PTT/chemotherapy, PTT/surgery, PTT/PDT, PDT/chemotherapy, PTT/chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and PTT/gene therapy) and triple-modal (e.g., PTT/PDT/chemotherapy, PTT/PDT/surgery, PTT/PDT/gene therapy and PTT/gene/chemotherapy). Finally, we discuss the opportunities and challenges of the CAs and nanotheranostics for future clinic translation.

Abstract
The development of new diagnostic imaging and precise treatment methods for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is significant to improve patients' quality of life and prolong their survival time. Herein, we proposed a photoacoustic imaging (PAI)-guided GBM high-efficient photothermal therapy (PTT) based on a second near-infrared (NIR-II) absorptive polymer (PDTP-TBZ) conjugated with intense electron donor dithienopyrrole (DTP) and strong electron acceptor thiadiazolobenzotriazole (TBZ). By nanoprecipitation, PDTP-TBZ can form into nanoparticles (PT NPs), and c(RGDfK) cyclic peptide with integrin-specific targeting was then modified on the surface of PT NPs to obtain the ability of active targeting GBM multifunctional nano-reagent (cRGD@PT NPs). Both in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that cRGD@PT NPs as NIR-II GBM phototheranostic reagents can greatly improve the enrichment rate at tumor sites under PAI monitoring, and carry out precise NIR-II PTT with high effective tumor cell phototoxicity and high biological safety. Thus, cRGD@PT NPs have great potential for the future GBM phototheranostic application in clinic. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In this work, we successfully constructed an intense electron donor dithienopyrrole (DTP) with a strong electron acceptor thiadiazolobenzotriazole (TBZ) into a novel NIR-II optical absorptive conjugated polymer (PDTP-TBZ). Then, the c(RGDfK) cyclic peptide was modified on the surface of PT NPs to obtain multifunctional nanodiagnostic reagents (cRGD@PT NPs) that can effectively target GBM neovascularization and tumor cells. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that cRGD@PT NPs possess high photothermal conversion efficiency and practical photoacoustic imaging capability under 1064 nm laser irradiation. The results of this work suggested that cRGD@PT NPs have great potential in efficient NIR-II PTT guided by accurate PAI, which provide a good perspective for the treatment and diagnosis of GBM.

Abstract
Local tumor photothermal treatment with the near-infrared light at the second window (NIR-II) is a promising strategy in triggering the in situ tumor vaccination (ISTV) for cancer therapy. However, limited penetration of photothermal agents within tumors seriously limits their spatial effect in generating sufficient tumor-associated antigens, a key factor to the success of ISTV. In this study, a nano-adjuvant system is fabricated based on the NIR-II-absorbable gold nanostars decorated with hyaluronidases and immunostimulatory oligodeoxynucleotides CpG for ISTV. The nano-adjuvant displays a deep tumor penetration capacity via loosening the dense extracellular matrix of tumors. Upon NIR-II light irradiation, the nano-adjuvant significantly inhibits the tumor growth, induces a cascade of immune responses, generates an obvious adaptive immunity against the re-challenged cancers, boosts the abscopal effect, and completely inhibits the pulmonary metastases. The study highlights an advanced nano-adjuvant formulation featuring deep tumor penetration for NIR-II-triggered ISTV.

Abstract
The current serious mismatch between the increasing severity of bacterial infections and antibiotic production capacity urgently requires the emergence of novel antimicrobial materials. In this paper, dopamine methacrylamide (DMA) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) were polymerized as the monomers into a block copolymer poly(dopamine methacrylamide-block-N-isopropylacrylamide) (P(DA-NIP)) and then encapsulated with polydopamine-coated magnetic nanoparticle clusters (MNC) to produce an antibacterial nanocomposite (MNC@P(DA-NIP)). This nanocomposite has triple responses respectively to light, heat and magnetism, which endow MNC@P(DA-NIP) with the abilities to kill bacteria effectively and capture/release bacteria conveniently. Under near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation, MNC@P(DA-NIP) could significantly elevate the temperature through photothermal conversion. The increased temperature favored both the capture of bacteria on MNC@P(DA-NIP), and the damage of bacterial cells, causing bacterial death almost completely. While low temperatures could promote the release of dead bacteria from the nanocomposites, might through the recovery of the hydrophilic state of the outlayer PNIPAM. Moreover, thanks to the magnetic responsibility, MNC@P(DA-NIP) could be easily separated from the bacterial cells and perform better biofilm penetration. The results showed that the antibacterial effect of MNC@P(DA-NIP) was 3.5 times higher than that of MNC, and the recycling capacity of MNC@P(DA-NIP) was better than MNC@PDA. What's more, MNC@P(DA-NIP) possessed the excellent anti-biofilm properties under magnetic field (MF) and NIR. The most important features of the triple-responsive nanocomposites are excellent antibacterial effect, good recyclability and easy preparation, which provide the nanocomposites with great potential in eliminating harmful bacterial cells.

Abstract
With the outbreak of COVID-19, microbial pollution has gained increasing attention as a threat to human health. Consequently, many research efforts are being devoted to the development of efficient disinfection methods. In this context, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) stands out as a green and broad-spectrum disinfectant, which can be produced and sprayed in the air directly by cavitation in ultrasonic nebulisation. However, the yield of H2O2 obtained by ultrasonic nebulisation is too low to satisfy the requirements for disinfection by spraying and needs to be improved to achieve efficient disinfection of the air and objects. Herein, we report the introduction of a zinc layer into an ultrasonic nebuliser to improve the production of H2O2 and generate additional Zn2+ by self-corrosion, achieving good disinfecting performance. Specifically, a zinc layer was assembled on the oscillator plate of a commercial ultrasonic nebuliser, resulting in a 21-fold increase in the yield of H2O2 and the production of 4.75 μg/mL Zn2+ in the spraying droplets. When the generated water mist was used to treat a bottle polluted with Escherichia coli for 30 min, the sterilisation rate reached 93.53%. This ultrasonic nebulisation using a functional zinc layer successfully enhanced the production of H2O2 while generating Zn2+, providing a platform for the development of new methodologies of spray disinfection.

Abstract
Helicene-based therapeutic agents for organelle-targeted photodynamic therapy (PDT) involving both type I and II are challenging and still underexplored. Herein, water-soluble nanoparticles containing twisted double [7]carbohelicene (D7H-NPs) are prepared through self-assembly with 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[methoxy(polyethylene glycol)-2000] by a nanoprecipitation method. D7H-NPs display high water solubility with an average size of 46 ± 2 nm. Notably, D7H-NPs can generate efficient singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) and superoxide anion (O2· - ) upon white light irradiation, forming the basis of PDT. Moreover, the typical accumulation in lysosomes of 4T1 cancer cells paves the way to use D7H-NPs for lysosome-targeted cancer phototherapeutics. This paper reports a promising helicene-based phototherapeutic agent involving both type I and II PDT for organelle-targeted biotherapy.

Abstract
Light-mediated therapies, including photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) have been exploited as minimally invasive techniques for ablation of various tumors., Both modalities may eradicate tumors with minimal side effects to normal tissues and organs. Moreover, developments of light-mediated approaches using nanoparticles (NPs) and photosensitizer (PS) as diagnostic and therapeutic agents may have a crucial role in achieving successful cancer treatment. In recent years, novel nanoplatforms and strategies have been investigated to boost the therapeutic effect.. In this regard, gold, iron oxide, graphene oxide nanoparticles and hybrid nanocomposites have attracted attention.. Moreover, the combination of these materials with PS, in the form of hybrid NPs, reduces in vitro and in vivo normal tissue cytotoxicity, improves their solubility property in the biological environment and enhances the therapeutic effects. In this review, we look into the basic principles of PTT and PDT with their strengths and limitations to treat cancers. We also will discuss light-based nanoparticles and their PTT and PDT applications in the preclinical and clinical translation. Also, recent advances and trends in this field will be discussed along with the clinical challenges of PTT and PDT.

Acta Biomater 2021; 136:546-557. [PMID: 34536603 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.09.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2021] [Revised: 09/07/2021] [Accepted: 09/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
The high risk of tumor recurrence presents a big challenge in melanoma therapy. Photothermal therapy (PTT) has merged as a powerful weapon against tumor in recent years, which produces tumor-associated antigens (TAA) and recruits dendritic cells (DCs) to tumor sites through immunogenic cell death (ICD) for immune activation. However, due to the lack of activation signals of DCs, the immune effect induced by PTT is not sufficient to inhibit the recurrence and proliferation of tumor. To efficiently cooperate PTT and immunotherapy to circumvent tumor recurrence, here we constructed a polydopamine (PDA) based core-shell nanoplatform loading CpG ODNs to elicit robust photothermal ablation and antitumor immune responses. Cationized polydopamine coated with hyaluronic acid (HA) shell was proven an efficient photothermal agent that increased the surface temperature of tumor by 16 °C and induced ICD. CpG ODNs effectively induced maturation of DCs by elevating the expression of co-stimulating markers. PTT combined with CpG ODNs achieved a remarkable synergistic treatment effect in the maturation of DCs and activation of T cells in melanoma-bearing mice model compared with PTT or CpG ODNs alone. Furthermore, in a tumor recurrence model, photothermal-immune combination therapy increased the infiltration of CTLs in distant tumor compared with PTT or CpG ODNs alone. The combination therapy overcame insufficient immunity at distant tumor caused by PTT alone and relieved immunosuppression microenvironment of the tumor. Hence, the PDA based core-shell nanoplatform presents a potent photo-immunotherapy against proliferation and recurrence of melanoma. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In order to solve the insufficient immunity induced by photothermal therapy (PTT), CpG ODNs were utilized to enhance the weak immune response mediated by PTT through inducing DCs maturation. Hence, we designed a polydopamine (PDA) based core-shell nanoplatform loading CpG ODNs followed by hyaluronic acid named PPP/CpG/HA to elicit robust photothermal ablation and antitumor immune responses. CpG ODNs were delivered to the tumor site through the targeting effect of the HA shell. The core-shell nanoplatform achieved a remarkable synergistic treatment effect in the maturation of DCs and activation of T cells, thereby overcoming insufficient immunity at distant tumor caused by PTT alone. The core-shell nanoplatform presents a potent photo-immunotherapy against proliferation and recurrence of melanoma.

Abstract
The specific coagulation in the tumor vasculature has the potential for the ablation of solid tumors by cutting off the blood supply. However, the safe delivery of effective vessel occluding agents in the tumor-specific embolization therapy remains challenging. Herein, it is reported that the photothermal responsive tumor-specific embolization therapy based on thrombin (Thr) is delivered by intravenous injection via the phase-change materials (PCM)-based nanoparticles. The wax sealing profile of PCM enables safe delivery and prevents the preleakage of Thr in the blood circulation. While in the tumor site, the thermal effect induced by IR780 triggers the melting of PCM and rapidly releases Thr to generate coagulation in the tumor blood vessels. Based on the safe delivery and controllable release of Thr, thermal responsive tumor-specific embolization therapy could be achieved with high efficiency and no significant damage to normal organs and tissues. The safe administration of Thr to induce vascular infarction in tumors based on PCM nanoparticles in this work shows a promising strategy for improving the therapeutic specificity and efficacy of coagulation-based tumor therapy.

Abstract
The development of cancer diagnostic imaging and treatment is a major concern worldwide. By integrating imaging and therapy into one theranostic nanoplatform for simultaneously detecting tumors, evaluating the targeting ability and timely monitoring therapeutic responses provide more opportunities for precision medicine. Among various theranostic nanosystems, a series of single-component nanoparticles (NPs) have been developed for "all-in-one" theranostics, which presents the unique properties of facile preparation, simple composition, defined structure, high reproducibility, and excellent biocompatibility. Specifically, utilizing single-component NPs for both diagnostics and therapeutics can reduce the possible numerous untoward side effects and risks to the living body. In this review, the recent progress of multifunctional single-component NPs in the applications of cancer theranostics is systematically summarized. Notably, the structure design, categories of NPs, targeted strategies, biomedical applications, potential barriers, challenges, and prospects for the future clinical practice of this rapidly growing field are discussed.

Abstract
Bodipy is one of the most popular dyes for bioimaging, however, a complicated synthetic protocol is needed to create and isolate ideal near-infrared (NIR) emissive Bodipy derivatives for optical bioimaging. It is noticed that the donor species impact the wavelength when the π-conjugation system of green light emissive Bodipy is elongated via a one-step reaction. Herein, several Bodipy dyes bearing different common donors are synthesized. Their optical properties confirm that both absorption and emission peaks of the synthesized Bodipy could be tuned to NIR wavelength by using stronger donors via a facile reaction. The synthesized monocarboxyl Bodipy could conjugate with aminated PEG to yield an amphiphilic polymer, which further self-assembles into a NIR nanoparticle (NP). The NIR NP exhibits preferential tumor accumulation via the enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect, making it useful for tumor diagnosis by both fluorescence imaging and photoacoustic tomography.

Abstract
Intrinsic tumor microenvironment (TME)-related therapeutic resistance and nontumor-specific imaging have limited the application of imaging-guided cancer therapy. Herein, a TME-responsive MnO2-based nanoplatform coupled with turn-on and always-on fluorescence probes was designed through a facile biomineralization method for imaging-guided photodynamic/chemodynamic/photothermal therapy (PDT/CDT/PTT). After the tumor-targeting delivery of the AuNCs@MnO2-ICG@AS1411 (AMIT) nanoplatform via aptamer AS1411, the TME-responsive dissociation of MnO2 generated sufficient O2 and Mn2+ with the consumption of GSH for improving PDT efficacy and Fenton-like reaction-mediated CDT. Simultaneously, the released small-sized ICG and AuNCs facilitated PDT and PTT efficacy via the deep tumor penetration. Moreover, the turn-on fluorescence of AuNCs revealed the real-time TME-responsive MnO2 degradation process, and the always-on ICG fluorescence enabled the in situ monitoring of the payload distribution in vitro and in vivo. The AMIT NPs also provided magnetic resonance and thermal imaging guidance for the enhanced PDT, CDT, and PTT. Therefore, this all-in-one nanosystem provides a simple and versatile strategy for multiple imaging-guided theranostic applications.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy as an emerging therapeutic strategy has been implemented for oncotherapy. However, the reactive oxygen species can be counteracted by the exorbitant glutathione (GSH) produced by the tumor cells before exerting the antitumor effect. Herein, borneol (NB) serving as a monoterpenoid sensitizer, and copper sulfide (CuS NPs) as an NIR-II photothermal agent were loaded in a thermo-responsive vehicle (NB/CuS@PCM NPs). Under 1,060-nm laser irradiation, the hyperthermia produced by CuS NPs can be used for photothermal therapy and melt the phase change material for drug delivery. In the acidity microenvironment, the CuS NPs released from NB/CuS@PCM NPs could degrade to Cu2+, then Cu2+ was reduced to Cu+ during the depletion of GSH. As Fenton-like catalyst, the copper ion could convert hydrogen peroxide into hydroxyl radicals for chemodynamic therapy. Moreover, the NB originated from NB/CuS@PCM NPs could increase the intracellular ROS content to improve the treatment outcome of chemodynamic therapy. The animal experimental results indicated that the NB/CuS@PCM NPs could accumulate at the tumor site and exhibit an excellent antitumor effect. This work confirmed that the combination of oxidative stress-induced damage and photothermal therapy is a potential therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Development of multiple agents has a significant impact on the cancer diagnosis and therapy. Several fluorescent dyes including near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent agents have been already well studied in the field of photodynamic therapy (PDT). In the present study, we reported a novel fluorescent dye could obviously inhibit cancer cell proliferation with slight toxic effects on the biological organism. Furthermore, it displayed selective staining on cancer cells, particularly on cancer stem cells (CSCs), rather than normal cells. Mechanically, this dye preferred to invading mitochondria of cancer cells and inducing overwhelming reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. The in vivo experiments further demonstrated that this dye could image cancer cells and even CSCs in a short-time intratumor injection manner using a zebrafish model and subsequently inhibit cancer cell proliferation after a relatively long-time drug exposure. Taken together, the future development of this agent will promise to make an essential contribution to the cancer diagnosis and therapeutics.

Abstract
The release and biodistribution of drugs in the body have an important impact on tumor diagnosis and treatment. Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent active fluorophores with good photostability are used to detect drug release and perform in vivo imaging. Here, we developed a glutathione-responsive NIR prodrug POEGMA-b-P(CPT-CyOH) (PCC) for effective cancer diagnosis and treatment, whereby the camptothecin (CPT) and NIR fluorophore CyOH in PCC are connected by disulfide bonds. In vitro experiments confirmed that PCC was quickly taken up by cells. The high concentration of tumor intracellular glutathione caused the cleavage of the PCC disulfide bonds, leading to the release of the chemotherapeutic drug CPT, indicating that PCC can promote apoptosis. Moreover, owing to the fluorescent properties of CyOH, PCC was successfully used for in vivo imaging to observe the drug penetration and enrichment capabilities in tumors. Finally, PCC successfully inhibited tumor growth, indicating that the prodrug has a good anti-tumor effect. This work provides new strategies for chemical drug delivery and precise cancer treatment.

Abstract
Purpose A targeted drug delivery system that combines protein-arginine deiminase type-4 (PAD4) inhibitors YW3-56 (356) with PTT of NPs is constructed to both decrease the accumulation of gold in metabolic organs and reduce the dose of chemotherapeutic agents. Patients and Methods In vitro cytotoxicity test and in vivo S180 tumor-bearing mice model were used to compare antitumor activity of 356-modified gold nanospheres and nanorods. The A549 tumor-bearing mice model was also exploited in antitumor assessment. In addition, ICP-MS, blood cell analyzer and blood biochemistry analyzer are applied for assessing the biosafety of NPs. Results Both 356-modified gold nanospheres and nanorods showed antitumor activity. However, 356-loaded gold nanorods are found to have better tumor inhibitory activity than 356-loaded gold nanospheres in the presence of laser and without laser irradiation. Thus, 356-loaded gold nanorods are selected to be applied for chemo-photothermal combined therapy on in vivo. We find that combination therapy could inhibit tumor growth and reduce lung tumor metastasis and inflammatory infiltration compared with individual therapy. It triggers apoptosis in tumor tissue observed by TUNEL assay and TEM pictures. Conclusion Thus, an RGD targeting and PAD4 inhibitor-loaded system are established based on chemo-photothermal combined therapy. It could inhibit tumor growth, prevent lung metastasis and improve biosafety.

Abstract
Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are constructed from metal ions/cluster nodes and functional organic ligands through coordination bonds. Owing to the advantages of diverse synthetic methods, easy modification after synthesis, large adsorption capacity for heavy metals, and short equilibrium time, considerable attention has recently been paid to MOFs for tumor phototherapy. Through rational tuning of metal ions and ligands, MOFs present abundant properties for various applications. Light-triggered phototherapy, including photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), is an emerging cancer treatment approach. Nanosized MOFs can be applied as phototherapeutic agents to accomplish phototherapy with excellent phototherapeutic efficacy. This review outlines the latest advances in the field of phototherapy with various metal ion-based MOFs.

Abstract
Complete treatment of cancer remains a major challenge today. Herein, a biocompatible drug delivery system named as PCM + PTX@mPBs/PEG was constructed. In this system, Paclitaxel (PTX) was blended with phase-change material (PCM) and loaded in mesoporous Prussian blue nanoparticles (mPBs), and chelated with polyethylene glycol at surface. The blank PCM@mPBs/PEG had uniform particle size distribution, large pore size to load drug, excellent photothermal efficiency and good biocompatibility. After loading PTX, PCM + PTX@mPBs/PEG was demonstrated with a high loading capacity and the drug presented temperature-responsive release characteristics. In addition, PTX can be released under the exposure of an NIR laser. In vitro cell experiments showed that nanoparticles can be exposed to near-infrared irradiation to increase uptake in cells, which enhanced anticancer activity. After tail vein injection of PCM + PTX@mPBs/PEG suspension in tumor-bearing mice, PCM + PTX@mPBs/PEG can accumulate at the tumor site through passive transport. The tumor was effectively suppressed by phototherapy and chemotherapy with few side effects. In summary, compared with photothermal therapy or chemotherapy alone, the prepared PCM + PTX@mPBs/PEG showed synergistic photothermal and chemotherapeutic effects on cancer treatment of mice.

Abstract
Tumor tissues are not only independent of cancer cells, but also tumor blood vessels. Thus, targeting the tumor blood vessels is as important as targeting the tumor for cancer treatment. Herein, an organic semiconducting molecule named T8IC is developed for the potential phototeranostics in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm). The T8IC molecule with an electronic-rich core and electron-deficient side edge shows a typical semiconducting structure, which makes the bandgap narrow. With the addition of anti-angiogenic agent sorafenib into T8IC, TS nanoparticles (NPs) were formed by nanoprecipitation with synergetic anti-angiogenic and phototheranostic effects. Compared to the molecular state, the J-aggregative TS NPs were formed with great bathochromic-shifts in both the absorption spectrum (maximum increased from 755 nm to 826 nm) and the emission spectrum (maximum increased from 840 nm to 1030 nm), which endow them with the ideal deep tumor NIR-II fluorescence imaging ability. Besides, TS NPs present both high photothermal conversion efficiency (∼32.47%) and good ROS generation ability, making them possess excellent cancer phototherapy capability. Guided by NIR-II fluorescence imaging, the tumor blood vessels can be cut off via sorafenib and cancer cells can be killed via T8IC simultaneously, making TS NPs show promising potential for the synergistic therapeutic effect in clinical applications.
