Abstract
Laser beams, capable of controlling the mechanical motion of micron-scale objects, can serve as a tool, enabling investigations of numerous interaction scenarios under full control. Beyond pure electromagnetic interactions, giving rise to conventional gradient forces and radiation pressure, environment-induced thermal effects can play a role and, in certain cases, govern the dynamics. Here we explore a thermocapillary Marangoni effect, which is responsible for creating long-range few hundreds of nano-Newton forces, acting on a bubble around a 'gilded vaterite' nanoparticle. Decorating calcium carbonate spherulite (the vaterite) with gold nanoseeds allows tuning its optical absorption and, as a result, controlling its temperature in a solution. We demonstrate that keeping a balance between electromagnetic and thermal interactions allows creating of a stable micron-scale bubble around the particle and maintaining its size over time. The bubbles are shown to remain stable over minutes even after the light source is switched off. The bubbles were shown to swim toward a laser focus for over 400-µm distances across the sample. Optothermal effects, allowing for efficient transport, stable bubble creation, and particle-fluid interaction control, can grant nano-engineered drug delivery capsules with additional functions toward a theragnostic paradigm shift.

Kim S, Remya KP, Kim MJ. Nanosized vaterite production through organic-solvent-free indirect carbonation. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 98:106495. [PMID: 37354764 PMCID: PMC10320241 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2023] [Revised: 06/04/2023] [Accepted: 06/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/26/2023]
Abstract
Nanosized vaterite, which exhibits characteristics such as high specific surface area, porosity, and biocompatibility, has attracted research attention for use as a drug delivery material. However, fatal drawbacks such as high costs, difficulty in mass production, and toxicity exist in conventional nanosized vaterite production owing to the use of a large amount of organic solvents to forcibly suppress the vaterite recrystallization and particle growth. Therefore, nanosized 100 % vaterite was produced in this study via indirect carbonation without using any organic solvent, which has rarely been achieved previously. Seawater, sucrose, ultrasonication, and aging-which facilitate vaterite production and particle size reduction-exhibited a synergistic effect in producing vaterite. To realize nanosized vaterite production via indirect carbonation, seawater was used as a solvent, sucrose was added when Ca was eluted, and CO2 bubbling was performed under ultrasonication. Furthermore, the CaCO3-containing suspension obtained after the carbonation was aged. Ultrasonic waves were required to generate nanosized vaterite and reducing size at the carbonation stage. This nanosized-vaterite-production strategy involving organic-solvent-free indirect carbonation is meaningful, in that it highlights the potential of synthesizing vaterite in an economically sound, environmentally friendly manner for use as a pharmaceutical raw material.

Abstract
The growing biomedical challenges impose the continuous development of novel platforms. Ensuring the biocompatibility of drug delivery and implantable biomedical devices is an essential requirement. Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in the form of vaterite nanoparticles is a promising platform, which has demonstrated distinctive optical and biochemical properties, including high porosity and metastability. In this study, the biocompatibility of differently shaped CaCO3 vaterite particles (toroids, ellipsoids, and spheroids) are evaluated by bacterial toxicity mode-of-action with a whole-cell biosensor. Different Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains were used in the bioluminescent assay, including cytotoxicity, genotoxicity and quorum-sensing. Firstly, both scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and fluorescence microscopy characterizations were conducted. Bacterial cell death and aggregates were observed only in the highest tested concentration of the vaterite particles, especially in toroids 15-25 µm. After, the bioluminescent bacterial panel was exposed to the vaterite particles, and their bioluminescent signal reflected their toxicity mode-of-action. The vaterite particles resulted in an induction factor (IF > 1) on the bacterial panel, which was higher after exposure to the toroids (1.557 ≤ IF ≤ 2.271) and ellipsoids particles (1.712 ≤ IF ≤ 2.018), as compared to the spheroids particles (1.134 ≤ IF ≤ 1.494), in all the tested bacterial strains. Furthermore, the vaterite particles did not affect the viability of the bacterial cells. The bacterial monitoring demonstrated the biofriendly nature of especially spheroids vaterite nanoparticles.

Abstract
High-photoluminescence carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized from various sources and various methods using two approaches, namely bottom up and top down, with emission-dependent excitation wavelength. Electronic transition from the higher-occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) state to the lowest-unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO) state, surface defect states, wider excitation spectrum, higher quantum yield, efficient energy transfer, and element doping affected the fluorescence properties of CDs. Using 102 references listed in this review, the authors studied the relationship between fluorescence mechanism and reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced for photodynamic therapy (PDT) and materials anticancer applications. We described how the radical atom or ROS work as anticancer therapy and PDT and described the chemical reaction of high-resolution fluorescence CDs. We summarized experimental techniques that are used for producing CDs and discussed their characteristics. Finally, conclusions and future prospects in this field are also discussed. The important characteristics of CD-based design for high ROS may usher in new prospects and challenges for high efficiency and stability of PDT and anticancer therapy. In conclusion, we have provided perspectives and challenges of the future development of CD s.

Abstract
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is an important inorganic mineral in biological and geological systems. Traditionally, it is widely used in plastics, papermaking, ink, building materials, textiles, cosmetics, and food. Over the last decade, there has been rapid development in the controlled synthesis and surface modification of CaCO3, the stabilization of amorphous CaCO3 (ACC), and CaCO3-based nanostructured materials. In this review, the controlled synthesis of CaCO3 is first examined, including Ca2+-CO32- systems, solid-liquid-gas carbonation, water-in-oil reverse emulsions, and biomineralization. Advancing insights into the nucleation and crystallization of CaCO3 have led to the development of efficient routes towards the controlled synthesis of CaCO3 with specific sizes, morphologies, and polymorphs. Recently-developed surface modification methods of CaCO3 include organic and inorganic modifications, as well as intensified surface reactions. The resultant CaCO3 can then be further engineered via template-induced biomineralization and layer-by-layer assembly into porous, hollow, or core-shell organic-inorganic nanocomposites. The introduction of CaCO3 into nanostructured materials has led to a significant improvement in the mechanical, optical, magnetic, and catalytic properties of such materials, with the resultant CaCO3-based nanostructured materials showing great potential for use in biomaterials and biomedicine, environmental remediation, and energy production and storage. The influences that the preparation conditions and additives have on ACC preparation and stabilization are also discussed. Studies indicate that ACC can be used to construct environmentally-friendly hybrid films, supramolecular hydrogels, and drug vehicles. Finally, the existing challenges and future directions of the controlled synthesis and functionalization of CaCO3 and its expanding applications are highlighted.

Abstract
The recent successful application of lipid-based nanoparticles as delivery vehicles in COVID-19 vaccines demonstrated the superior potential of nanoparticle-based technology for targeted drug delivery in biomedicine. Among novel, rapidly advancing delivery platforms, the inorganic nano/microparticles gradually reach new heights and attract well-deserved attention among scientists and clinicians. Calcium carbonate in its vaterite form is used as a biocompatible carrier for a progressively increasing number of biomedical applications. Its growing popularity is conferred by beneficial porosity of particles, high mechanical stability, biodegradability under certain physiological conditions, ability to provide a continuous steady release of bioactives, preferential safety profile, and low cost, which make calcium carbonate a suitable entity of highly efficacious formulations for controlled drug delivery and release. The focal point of the current review is the success of the recent vaterite applications in the delivery of various diagnostics and therapeutic drugs. The manuscript highlights the nuances of drug loading in vaterite particles, connecting it with particle morphology, size, and charge of the loaded molecules, payload concentration, mono- or multiple drug loading. The manuscript also depicts recent successful methods of increasing the loading capacity developed for vaterite carriers. In addition, the review describes the various administration routes for vaterite particles with bioactive payloads, which were reported in recent years. Special attention is given to the multi-drug-loaded vaterite particles ("molecular cocktails") and reports on their successful delivery in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Because free therapeutic drug molecules often have adverse effects on normal tissues, deliver scanty drug concentrations and exhibit a potentially low efficacy at pathological sites, various drug carriers have been developed for preclinical and clinical trials. Their physicochemical and toxicological properties are the subject of extensive research. Inorganic calcium carbonate particles are promising candidates as drug delivery carriers owning to their hardness, porous internal structure, high surface area, distinctive pH-sensitivity, low degradability, etc, while soft organic alginate hydrogels are also widely used because of their special advantages such as a high hydration, bio-adhesiveness, and non-antigenicity. Here, we review these two distinct substances as well as hybrid structures encompassing both types of carriers. Methods of their synthesis, fundamental properties and mechanisms of formation, and their respective applications are described. Furthermore, we summarize and compare similarities versus differences taking into account unique advantages and disadvantages of these drug delivery carriers. Moreover, rational combination of both carrier types due to their performance complementarity (yin-&yang properties: in general, yin is referred to for definiteness as hard, and yang is broadly taken as soft) is proposed to be used in the so-called hybrid carriers endowing them with even more advanced properties envisioned to be attractive for designing new drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Mesoscopic photonic systems with tailored optical responses have great potential to open new frontiers in implantable biomedical devices. However, biocompatibility is typically a problem, as engineering of optical properties often calls for using toxic compounds and chemicals, unsuitable for in vivo applications. Here, a unique approach to biofriendly delivery of optical resonances is demonstrated. It is shown that the controllable infusion of gold nanoseeds into polycrystalline sub-micrometer vaterite spherulites gives rise to a variety of electric and magnetic Mie resonances, producing a tuneable mesoscopic optical metamaterial. The 3D reconstruction of the spherulites demonstrates the capability of controllable gold loading with volumetric filling factors exceeding 28%. Owing to the biocompatibility of the constitutive elements, "golden vaterite" paves the way to introduce designer-made Mie resonances to cutting-edge biophotonic applications. This concept is exemplified by showing efficient laser heating of gold-filled vaterite spherulites at red and near-infrared wavelengths, highly desirable in photothermal therapy, and photoacoustic tomography.

Abstract
Natural products have contributed conspicuously to the development of innovative nanomedicines. Hence, the interface between nanomaterial science and plant natural products may bestow comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for tackling diseases such as cancer and neurological disorders. Natural product-derived carbon dots (NPdCDs) have revealed noteworthy attributes in the fields of cancer theranostics, microbial imaging, drug sensing and drug delivery. As plants consist of a cocktail of bioactive phytomolecules, the NPdCDs can be anticipated to have medicinal properties, biocompatibility, photo-stability and easy functionalization. NPdCDs have wide-ranging applications. The primary objective of this review is to comment on recent developments in the use of NPdCDs, with special reference to their application in cancer biology. The future of the use of NPdCDs has also been considered.

Abstract
Being the polymorphs of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), vaterite and calcite have attracted a great deal of attention as promising biomaterials for drug delivery and tissue engineering applications. Furthermore, they are important biogenic minerals, enabling living organisms to reach specific functions. In nature, vaterite and calcite monocrystals typically form self-assembled polycrystal micro- and nanoparticles, also referred to as spherulites. Here, we demonstrate that alpine plants belonging to the Saxifraga genus can tailor light scattering channels and utilize multipole interference effect to improve light collection efficiency via producing CaCO3 polycrystal nanoparticles on the margins of their leaves. To provide a clear physical background behind this concept, we study optical properties of artificially synthesized vaterite nanospherulites and reveal the phenomenon of directional light scattering. Dark-field spectroscopy measurements are supported by a comprehensive numerical analysis, accounting for the complex microstructure of particles. We demonstrate the appearance of generalized Kerker condition, where several higher order multipoles interfere constructively in the forward direction, governing the interaction phenomenon. As a result, highly directive forward light scattering from vaterite nanospherulites is observed in the entire visible range. Furthermore, ex vivo studies of microstructure and optical properties of leaves for the alpine plants Saxifraga "Southside Seedling" and Saxifraga Paniculata Ria are performed and underline the importance of the Kerker effect for these living organisms. Our results pave the way for a bioinspired strategy of efficient light collection by self-assembled polycrystal CaCO3 nanoparticles via tailoring light propagation directly to the photosynthetic tissue with minimal losses to undesired scattering channels.

Abstract
Conventional photodynamic therapy (PDT) is limited by its penetration depth due to the photosensitizer and light source. In this study, we developed X-ray induced photodynamic therapy that applied X-ray as the light source to activate Ce-doped CaCO₃ (CaCO₃:Ce) to generate an intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) for killing cancer cells. The A549 cell line was used as the in vitro and in vivo model to evaluate the efficacy of X-ray-induced CaCO₃:Ce. The cell viability significantly decreased and cell cytotoxicity obviously increased with CaCO₃:Ce exposure under X-ray irradiation, which is less harmful than radiotherapy in tumor treatment. CaCO₃:Ce produced significant ROS under X-ray irradiation and promoted A549 cancer cell death. CaCO₃:Ce can enhance the efficacy of X-ray induced PDT, and tumor growth was inhibited in vivo. The blood analysis and hematoxylin and eosin stain (H & E) stain fully supported the safety of the treatment. The mechanisms underlying ROS and CO₂ generation by CaCO₃:Ce activated by X-ray irradiation to induce cell toxicity, thereby inhibiting tumor growth, is discussed. These findings and advances are of great importance in providing a novel therapeutic approach as an alternative tumor treatment.

Abstract
Microgel loading with inorganic nanoparticle (NP) composites attracts interest for various biomedical applications. However, the encapsulation of NPs into microgels usually is a diffusion process driven by osmotic pressure, which depends highly on the concentration of NPs and causes low loading efficiency. In this work, we demonstrate preparation of microgels with ultrahigh content of various nano-objects (up to 92%, wt %) by a gelatin "casting" strategy using porous CaCO3 particles as templates. This approach could encapsulate various NPs with different charged, hydrophilic, and hydrophobic surfaces, shape, and size within microgels, without causing aggregation or change of physicochemical properties of NPs. The hybrid microgels coupled with properties of both inorganic NPs and hydrogels can be taken as an effective photothermal therapy system with great stability, reusability, and degradability and show high effective photothermal activity which is highly related to the content of NPs within microgels. The strategy of fabrication of microgels with nanocomposites is certified to be simple, facile, and low cost, which has potential applications in cancer therapy, drug delivery, catalysis, detecting system, and sewage treatment.

Abstract
The optical properties of nanoparticles have attracted continuous attention owing to their high fundamental and applied importance across many disciplines. A recently emerged field of all-dielectric nanophotonics employs optically induced electric and magnetic Mie resonances in dielectric nanoparticles with a high refractive index. This property allows obtaining additional valuable degrees of freedom to control the optical responses of nanophotonic structures. Here we propose a conceptually distinct approach towards reaching optical resonances in dielectric nanoparticles. We show that, lacking conventional Mie resonances, low-index nanoparticles can exhibit a novel anisotropy-induced family of non-Mie eigenmodes. Specifically, we investigate light interactions with calcite and vaterite nanospheres and compare them with the Mie scattering by a fused silica sphere. Having close permittivities and the same dimensions, these particles exhibit significantly different scattering behavior owing to their internal structure. While a fused silica sphere does not demonstrate any spectral features, the uniaxial structure of the permittivity tensor for calcite and the non-diagonal permittivity tensor for vaterite result in a set of distinguishable peaks in scattering spectra. Multipole decomposition and eigenmode analysis reveal that these peaks are associated with a new family of electric and magnetic resonances. We identify magnetic dipole modes of ordinary, extraordinary and hybrid polarization as well as complex electric dipole resonances, featuring a significant toroidal electric dipole moment. As both vaterite and calcite are biominerals, naturally synthesized and exploited by a variety of living organisms, our results provide an indispensable toolbox for understanding and elucidating the mechanisms behind the optical functionalities of true biological systems.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising treatment against multiantibiotic-resistant bacteria with the advantage of a low tendency towards antibiotic resistance. Due to their high PDT efficiencies and superior chemical stabilities, fullerenes have been proposed as effective photosensitizers for the photodynamic inactivation of bacteria. However, the biomedical applications of fullerenes are hindered by their limited aqueous solubility and apparent tendency to undergo aggregation. Herein, we report a hybrid supramolecular hydrogel prepared by the peptide-modulated self-assembly of fullerenes for targeted and sustained photodynamic antibacterial therapy. Aggregation of the fullerene in the hydrogel is largely inhibited through the non-covalent interactions between the peptide and the fullerene. Consequently, the PDT efficiency of the peptide-fullerene hydrogel is highly improved as compared to the untreated fullerene. The incorporation of fullerene profoundly improves the mechanical properties of the hydrogel, making the peptide-fullerene hydrogel a better injectable formulation for biomedical applications. In vitro and in vivo antibacterial results indicate that the peptide-fullerene hydrogels can effectively inhibit multiantibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and promote wound healing. This study offers a promising paradigm to adapt self-assembling small peptides with integration of multiple functions for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Porous inorganic nanostructured materials are widely used nowadays as drug delivery carriers due to their adventurous features: suitable architecture, large surface area and stability in the biological fluids. Among the different types of inorganic porous materials, silica, calcium carbonate, and calcium phosphate have received significant attention in the last decade. The use of porous inorganic materials as drug carriers for cancer therapy, gene delivery etc. has the potential to improve the life expectancy of the patients affected by the disease. The main goal of this review is to provide general information on the current state of the art of synthesis of the inorganic porous particles based on silica, calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate. Special focus is dedicated to the loading capacity, controllable release of drugs under internal biological stimuli (e.g., pH, redox, enzymes) and external noninvasive stimuli (e.g., light, magnetic field, and ultrasound). Moreover, the diverse compounds to deliver with silica, calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate particles, ranging from the commercial drugs to genetic materials are also discussed.

Abstract
Employing nanoscaled materials as photosensitizer (PS) carriers is an effective strategy to solve the problem of poor solubility and low tumor selectivity of hydrophobic PS in photodynamic therapy (PDT), which compulsorily requires the PS release in PDT implementation. However, the complicated environment in vivo makes it difficult to precisely design and control the release process and the delivery process requires real-time tracking. Developing a delivery strategy of hydrophobic PS in the monomeric form with fluorescent emission and without consideration of the PS release in the PDT process, is in urgent demand. Herein, we report a versatile and potent strategy for fabrication of photodynamic nanoparticles (nanoPSs) with featuring the monomeric PS based on aromatic peptide-modulated self-assembly of porphyrin derivatives. Aromatic peptides within nanoPSs can isolate hydrophobic porphyrins from each other, resulting in monomeric porphyrin delivery with real-time fluorescence tracking property and avoiding self-aggregation and hence porphyrin release. Moreover, partially charged porphyrins tend to expose on the surface of nanoPSs, facilitating production and diffusion of 1O2. The highest 1O2 yield can be achieved with porphyrin loading as low as 6 wt %, reducing side effects of excessive porphyrin injection. The nanoPSs show enhanced PDT efficacy in vitro and in vivo leading to complete tumor eradication. This study highlights opportunities for development of active photodynamic nanoparticles and provides an alternative strategy for delivery of hydrophobic photosensitive drugs with enhanced therapeutic effects.

Abstract
A self-healable antifouling hydrogel based on zwitterionic block copolymer was prepared via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization and Diels-Alder "click" chemistry. The hydrogel consists of a core-cross-linked zwitterionic block copolymer having poly(furfuryl methacrylate) as core and poly(dimethyl-[3-(2-methyl-acryloylamino)-propyl]-(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium) (poly(sulfobetaine)) as shell. The core was cross-linked with dithiobismaleimidoethane. The block copolymers were characterized by dynamic light scattering, field emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), differential scanning calorimetry, water contact angle, and small-angle X-ray scattering analyses. This zwitterionic hydrogel showed self-healing activity via combined effect of phototriggered dynamic disulfide metathesis reaction and zwitterionic interaction, which was monitored by optical microscopy and AFM depth profilometry. The mechanical properties of the hydrogel before and after self-healing were studied using depth-sensing nanoindentation method. It was observed that the prepared zwitterionic hydrogel could reduce the formation of biofilm, which was established by studying the bovine serum albumin (model protein) adsorption over the coating. This multifunctional hydrogel can pave a new direction in antifouling self-healable gel coating applications.

Abstract
As phototheranostic agents, carbon dots (CDs), have recently drawn considerable attention due to their excellent physicochemical properties. However, the complex synthetic route and high-cost of CDs greatly limit their practical application. To address this issue, given their nearly infinite supply from nature, Hypocrella bambusae is used as the precursor for the preparation of CDs in this study. The obtained Hypocrella bambusae CDs (HBCDs) possess good water solubility, broad absorption (350-800 nm), red-light emission (maximum peak at 610 nm), and low biotoxicity. Moreover, HBCDs can highly generate 1O2 (0.38) and heat (27.6%) under 635 nm laser irradiation. These excellent properties of HBCDs capacitate them to be utilized for bimodal fluorescence/photoacoustic imaging-guided synergistic photodynamic therapy (PDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT). This work provides a new candidate for tumor treatment with the combination of PDT and PTT, and explores a novel approach for the preparation of CD-based phototheranostic agents with natural biomass as raw carbon sources.
