A versatile theranostic magnetic polydopamine iron oxide NIR laser-responsive nanosystem containing doxorubicin for chemo-photothermal therapy of melanoma. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2024; 159:213797. [PMID: 38368693 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2024.213797] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024]
Abstract
Theranostics nanoparticles (NPs) have recently received much attention in cancer imaging and treatment. This study aimed to develop a multifunctional nanosystem for the targeted delivery of photothermal and chemotherapy agents. Fe3O4 NPs were modified with polydopamine, bovine serum albumin, and loaded with DOX via a thermal-cleavable Azo linker (Fe3O4@PDA@BSA-DOX). The size of Fe3O4@PDA@BSA NPs was approximately 98 nm under the desired conditions. Because of the ability of Fe3O4 and PDA to convert light into heat, the temperature of Fe3O4@PDA@BSA NPs increased to approximately 47 °C within 10 min when exposed to an 808 nm NIR laser with a power density of 1.5 W/cm2. The heat generated by the NIR laser leads to the breaking of AZO linker and drug release. In vivo and in vitro results demonstrated that prepared NPs under laser irradiation successfully eradicated tumor cells without any significant toxicity effect. Moreover, the Fe3O4@PDA@BSA NPs exhibited the potential to function as a contrasting agent. These NPs could accumulate in tumors with the help of an external magnet, resulting in a significant enhancement in the quality of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The prepared novel multifunctional NPs seem to be an efficient system for imaging and combination therapy in melanoma.

Abstract
This review discusses the possible methods for improving therapeutic efficacies of phthalocyanine (Pcs) -based therapeutic probes in photo- and sono-dynamic therapies under hypoxic conditions. Herein, the structural design strategies including varying the central metal, position substituents and the effects of adjuvant used in supplementing the therapeutics activities of Pcs or formation of NPs are discussed for cancer therapies in hypoxic conditions. Different mechanisms induced for cell death influenced by the compositions of the Pcs-probes are discussed. The focus mainly highlights the oxygen (O2) -dependent mechanisms including methods of supplementing tumour microenvironment O2-concentrations to promote PDT or SDT therapies. Alternatively, O2-independent mechanisms mainly used to evade hypoxia by stimulating anticancer processes that don't require O2 to initiate cell death, such as the Fenton reaction or thermal ablation effects.

Abstract
In this study, a multifunctional therapeutic agent combining chemotherapy and photothermal therapy on a single platform has been developed in the form of vinorelbine-loaded polydopamine-coated iron oxide nanoparticles. Vinorelbine (VNB) is loaded on the surface of iron oxide nanoparticles produced by a solvothermal technique after coating with polydopamine (PDA) with varying weight ratios as a result of dopamine polymerisation and covalent bonding of thiol-polyethylene glycol (SH-PEG). The VNB/PDA/Fe3O4 nanoparticles have a saturation magnetisation value of 60.40 emu/g in vibrating sample magnetometry, which proves their magnetisation. Vinorelbine, which is used as an effective cancer therapy agent, is included in the nanocomposite structure, and in vitro drug release studies under different pH conditions (pH 5.5 and 7.4) and photothermal activity at 808 nm NIR laser irradiation are investigated. The comprehensive integration of precise multifunctional nanoparticles design, magnetic response, and controlled drug release with photothermal effect brings a different perspective to advanced cancer treatment research.

A novel electrospun nanofiber system with PEGylated paclitaxel nanocrystals enhancing the transmucus permeability and in situ retention for an efficient cervicovaginal cancer therapy. Int J Pharm 2024; 650:123660. [PMID: 38072148 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.123660] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 21.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/22/2023]
Abstract
Overcoming the vaginal barrier to achieve sufficient drug penetration and retention is a huge obstacle for drug delivery in chemotherapeutics for cervical cancer. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of a novel composite nanocrystal/nanofiber system for improving the transmucus penetration and, thus, enhancing retention and drug delivery to the lesion of a cervicovaginal tumor. Herein, paclitaxel (PTX) was sequentially formulated in the form of nanocrystals, coated with polydopamine (PDA), and modified with PEG. The nanocrystals (NCs@PDA-PEG) were creatively fabricated to create a composite nanofibrous membrane (NCs@PDA-PEG NFs) by using an electrospinning technique. The morphology, size distribution, drug loading, encapsulation efficiency, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, in vitro release, in vivo vaginal retention, apoptosis index, anti-tumor efficacy in a murine cervicovaginal tumor model, and local irritation were characterized. The NCs@PDA-PEG were formulated in a cube-like shape with an average size of 385.6 ± 35.47 nm; they were dispersed in electrospun nanofibers, and the drug loading was 7.94 %. The XRD curves indicated that the phase state of PTX changed after the creation of the nanocrystals. The FTIR spectra showed that the drug and the excipients were compatible with each other. In vitro delivery showed that the dissolution of PTX in the electrospun nanofibers was significantly faster than that when using bulk PTX. Compared with the PTX NC NFs, the NC@PDA-PEG NFs exhibited prolonged vaginal residence, superior transmucus penetration, minimal mucosal irritation, and significant tumor inhibition efficacy after the intravaginal administration of the NFs in tumor-bearing mice. In conclusion, by acting as novel pharmaceutical repositories, NCs@PDA-PEG NFs can be promising candidates for non-invasive local treatment, leading to efficient tumor inhibition in cervicovaginal cancer.

Abstract
Multifunctional nanocomposites are of potential use to achieve complete tumor elimination and, thus, to avoid tumor recurrence. Herein, polydopamine (PDA)-based gold nanoblackbodies (AuNBs) loaded with indocyanine green (ICG) and Doxorubicin (DOX) termed as A-P-I-D nanocomposite were investigated for multimodal plasmonic photothermal-photodynamic-chemotherapy. Upon near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, A-P-I-D nanocomposite showed enhanced photothermal conversion efficiency of 69.2% compared to bare AuNBs (62.9%) due to the presence of ICG, along with ROS (1O2) generation as well as enhanced DOX release. On assessment of therapeutic effects on breast cancer (MCF-7) and melanoma (B16F10) cell lines, A-P-I-D nanocomposite showed significantly lower cell viabilities of 45.5% and 24% compared to 79.3% and 76.8% for AuNBs. Fluorescence images of stained cells revealed characteristic signs of apoptotic mode of cell death, with almost complete damage on A-P-I-D nanocomposite+NIR treated cells. Further, on evaluation of photothermal performance through breast tumor-tissue mimicking phantoms, A-P-I-D nanocomposite provided required thermal ablation temperatures within the tumor along with the potential for the elimination of residual cancerous cells through photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy. Overall, this study demonstrates that A-P-I-D nanocomposite+NIR provides better therapeutic outcome on cell lines and enhanced photothermal performance on breast tumor-tissue mimicking phantoms to be a promising agent for multimodal cancer therapy.

Abstract
The efficacy of immune checkpoint therapy is limited by the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME), and lactate, the most universal component of TME, has been rediscovered that plays important roles in the regulation of metabolic pathways, angiogenesis, and immunosuppression. Here, a therapeutic strategy of acidity modulation combined with programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) siRNA (siPD-L1) is proposed to synergistically enhance tumor immunotherapy. The lactate oxidase (LOx) is encapsulated into the hollow Prussian blue (HPB) nanoparticles (NPs) prepared by hydrochloric acid etching followed by the modification with polyethyleneimine (PEI) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) via sulfur bonds (HPB-S-PP@LOx), siPD-L1 is loaded via electrostatic adsorption to obtain HPB-S-PP@LOx/siPD-L1. The obtained co-delivery NPs can accumulate in tumor tissue with stable systemic circulation, and simultaneous release of LOx and siPD-L1 in intracellular high glutathione (GSH) environment after uptake by tumor cells without being destroyed by lysosome. Moreover, LOx can catalyze the decomposition of lactate in the hypoxic tumor tissue with the aid of oxygen release by the HPB-S-PP nano-vector. The results show that the acidic TME regulation via lactate consumption can improve the immunosuppressive TME, including revitalizing the exhausted CD8+ T cells and decreasing the proportion of immunosuppressive Tregs, and synergistically elevating the therapeutic effect of PD1/PD-L1 blockade therapy via siPD-L1. This work provides a novel insight for tumor immunotherapy and explores a promising therapy for triple-negative breast cancer.

Abstract
This work reports on a novel polyester copolymer containing poly(dopamine), a synthetic analogue of natural melanin, evaluated in a sustained-release drug delivery system for ocular intravitreal administration of drugs. More specifically, a graft copolymer of poly(ε-caprolactone)-graft-poly(dopamine) (PCL-g-PDA) has been synthesized and was shown to further extend the drug release benefits of state-of-the-art biodegradable intravitreal implants composed of poly(lactide) and poly(lactide-co-glycolide). The innovative biomaterial combines the documented drug-binding properties of melanin naturally present in the eye, with the established ocular tolerability and biodegradation of polyester implants. The PCL-g-PDA copolymer was obtained by a two-step modification of PCL with a final PDA content of around 2-3 wt % and was fully characterized by size exclusion chromatography, NMR, and diffusion ordered NMR spectroscopy. The thermoplastic nature of PCL-g-PDA allowed its simple processing by hot-melt compression molding to prepare small implants. The properties of unmodified PCL and PCL-g-PDA implants were studied and compared in terms of thermal properties (differential scanning calorimetry), thermal stability (thermogravimetry analysis), degradability, and in vitro cytotoxicity. PCL and PCL-g-PDA implants exhibited similar degradation properties in vitro and were both stable under physiological conditions over 110 days. Likewise, both materials were non-cytotoxic toward L929 and ARPE-19 cells. The drug loading and in vitro release properties of the new materials were investigated with dexamethasone (DEX) and ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CIP) as representative drugs featuring low and high melanin-binding affinities, respectively. In comparison to unmodified PCL, PCL-g-PDA implants showed a significant extension of drug release, most likely because of specific drug-catechol interaction with the PDA moieties of the copolymer. The present study confirms the advantages of designing PDA-containing polyesters as a class of biodegradable and biocompatible thermoplastics that can modulate and remarkably extend the drug release kinetics thanks to their unique drug-binding properties, especially, but not limited to, for ocular applications.

Abstract
Introduction During the combined treatment of tumors, the non-interfering transportation of drugs with different solubilities and the controllable sequential release are the main challenges. Here, we reported a double-chamber “Dandelion” -like sequential drug delivery system to realize the sequential release of different drugs for treating malignant tumors synergistically. Methods After synthesizing mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) by template method, a hydrophilic chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX) was loaded into the channels of mesoporous silica (MSN) and locked with polydopamine (PDA) coating. Next, β-cyclodextrin (β-CDs) was decorated on PDA by Michael addition reaction, and the hydrophobic photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) was encapsulated into the hydrophobic chambers of β-CDs. Finally, AS1411 was modified on the surface of PDA and obtained DOX@MSN@PDA-β-CD/Ce6-AS1411 nanoparticles (DMPCCA) through which orthogonal loading and effective controlled release of different drugs were realized. Results Under the sequential irradiations of 808 nm and 660 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser, PDA promoted the extensive release of Ce6 firstly while playing the effect of photothermal therapy (PTT), further to achieve the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) of Ce6. Meanwhile, the rapid release of DOX loaded in MSN channels showed a time lag of about 5 h after Ce6 release, through which it maximized the chemotherapeutic effect. Besides, the present drug loading nano-platform combined passive tumor-targeting effect given by EPR and active tumor-targeting effect endowed by AS1411 realized PTT-PDT-chemotherapy triple mode synergistic combination. Conclusion We offer a general solution to address the key limitations for the delivery and sequential release of different drugs with different solubilities.

Abstract
Bacterial infection remains one of the most dangerous threats to human health due to the increasing cases of bacterial resistance, which is caused by the extensive use of current antibiotics. Photothermal therapy (PTT) is similar to photodynamic therapy (PDT), but PTT can generate heat energy under the excitation of light of specific wavelength, resulting in overheating and damage to target cells or sites. Polydopamine (PDA) has been proved to show plenty of advantages, such as simple preparation, good photothermal conversion effects, high biocompatibility, and easy functionalization and adhesion. Taking these advantages, dopamine is widely used to synthesize the PDA nanosystem with excellent photothermal effects, good biocompatibility, and high drug loading ability, which therefore play more and more important roles for anticancer and antibacterial treatment. PDA nanosystem-mediated PTT has been reported to induce significant tumor inhibition, as well as bacterial killings due to PTT-induced hyperthermia. Moreover, combined with other cancer or bacterial inhibition strategies, PDA nanosystem-mediated PTT can achieve more effective tumor and bacterial inhibitions. In this review, we summarized the progress of preparation methods for the PDA nanosystem, followed by advances of their biological functions and mechanisms for PTT uses, especially in the field of antibacterial treatments. We also provided advances on how to combine PDA nanosystem-mediated PTT with other antibacterial methods for synergistic bacterial killings. Moreover, we further provide some prospects of PDA nanosystem-mediated PTT against intracellular bacteria, which might be helpful to facilitate their future research progress for antibacterial therapy.

Abstract
To investigate the potential of cell penetrating peptide (CPP) modification on nanomedicine for improving mucosal penetration and effective therapy of cervical cancer, docetaxel nanocrystals modified with trans-activator of transcription (TAT) peptide were designed for treatment of cervical cancer via vaginal administration. Docetaxel nanocrystals were coated by polymerization of dopamine to form polydopamine (PDA) coating which facilitated TAT modification and PEGylation for less mucus entrapment to get PEGylated nanocrystals modified with TAT (NC@PDA-PEG-TAT). Enhanced cellular drug uptake and cytotoxicity of NC@PDA-PEG-TAT was observed in cervical cancer-related TC-1 cells than that of PEGylated nanocrystals (NC@PDA-PEG). Intravaginally administered NC@PDA-PEG-TAT dispersed in poloxamer 407-based thermosensitive gel exhibited prolonged in vivo intravaginal retention, deeper mucosal penetration and more potent inhibition on the growth of murine orthotopic cervical cancer than NC@PDA-PEG, PDA-coated nanocrystals or unmodified nanocrystals. All data suggested the significance of CPP-modification on nanocrystals in the local treatment of vaginal mucosa-related diseases by vaginal administration.

Magnetite Nanoparticles and Spheres for Chemo- and Photothermal Therapy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in vitro. Int J Nanomedicine 2020; 15:7923-7936. [PMID: 33116509 PMCID: PMC7569049 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s257142] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2020] [Accepted: 08/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction We present a multimodal nanoplatforms for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in vitro. The nanoplatforms are based on polydopamine (PDA)-coated magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) and spheres (sMAG) with PAMAM dendrimers and functionalized with NHS-PEG-Mal (N-hydroxysuccinimide–polyethylene glycol–maleimide) linker, which allows their functionalization with a folic acid derivative. The nanomaterials bearing a folic acid-targeting moiety show high efficiency in killing cancer cells in the dual chemo- and photothermal therapy (CT-PTT) of the liver cancer cells in comparison to modalities performed separately. Materials and Methods All materials are characterized in detail with transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, zeta potential and magnetic measurements. Also, photothermal properties were determined under irradiation of nanoparticles with laser beam of 2 W/cm2. The nontoxicity of nanoparticles with doxorubicin and without was checked by WST and LIVE/DEAD assay. Those tests were also used to evaluate materials bearing folic acid and anticancer drug in combined chemo- and photothermal therapy of HCC. Further, the generation of reactive oxygen species profile was also evaluated using flow cytometry test. Results Both NPs and sMAG showed high photothermal properties. Nevertheless, the higher photothermal response was found for magnetic spheres. Materials of concentration above 10 µg/mL reveal that their activity was comparable to free doxorubicin. It is worth highlighting that a functionalized magnetic sphere with DOXO more strongly affected the HepG2 cells than smaller functionalized nanoparticles with DOXO in the performed chemotherapy. This can be attributed to the larger size of particles and a different method of drug distribution. In the further stage, both materials were assessed in combined chemo- and photothermal therapy (CT-PTT) which revealed that magnetic spheres were also more effective in this modality than smaller nanoparticles. Conclusion Here, we present two types of nanomaterials (nanoparticles and spheres) based on polydopamine and PAMAM dendrimers g.5.0 functionalized with NHS-PEG-Mal linker terminated with folic acid for in vitro hepatocellular carcinoma treatment. The obtained materials can serve as efficient agents for dual chemo- and photothermal therapy of HCC. We also proved that PDA-coated magnetic spheres were more efficient in therapies based on near-infrared irradiation because determined cell viabilities for those materials are lower than for the same concentrations of nanomaterials based on small magnetic nanoparticles.

Abstract
Traditional techniques for the synthesis of nickel sulfide (NiS) nanoparticles (NPs) always present drawbacks of morphological irregularity, non-porous structure and poor long-term stability, which are extremely unfavorable for establishing effective therapeutic agents. Here, a category of hollow mesoporous NiS (hm-NiS) NPs with uniform spherical structure and good aqueous dispersity were innovatively developed based on a modified solvothermal reaction technique. Upon the successful synthesis of hm-NiS NPs, dopamine was seeded and in situ polymerized into polydopamine (PDA) on the NP surface, followed by functionalization with thiol-polyethylene glycol (SH-PEG) and encapsulation of the chemotherapeutic drug, doxorubicin (DOX), to form hm-NiS@PDA/PEG/DOX (NiPPD) NPs. The resultant NiPPD NPs exhibited a decent photothermal response and stability, attributed to the optical absorption of the hm-NiS nanocore and PDA layer in the near-infrared (NIR) region. Furthermore, stimulus-responsive drug release was achieved under both acidic pH conditions and NIR laser irradiation, owing to the protonation of -NH2 groups in the DOX molecules and local thermal shock, respectively. Lastly, a strong combinatorial photothermal-chemotherapeutic effect was demonstrated for tumor suppression with minimal systemic toxicity in vivo. Collectively, this state-of-the-art paradigm may provide useful insights to deepen the application of hm-NiS NPs for disease management and precision medicine.

Abstract
Melanin-based nanoplatforms are biocompatible nanomaterials with a variety of unique physicochemical properties such as strong photothermal conversion ability, excellent drug binding capacity, strong metal chelation capacity, high chemical reactivity and versatile adhesion ability. These innate talents not only make melanin-based nanoplatforms be an inborn theranostic nanoagent for photoacoustic imaging-guided photothermal therapy of cancers, but also enable them to be conveniently transferred into cancer-targeting drug delivery systems and multimodality imaging nanoprobes. Due to the intriguing properties, melanin-based nanoplatforms have attracted much attention in investigations of cancer diagnosis and therapy. This review provides an overview of recent research advances in applications of melanin-based nanoplatforms in the fields of cancer diagnosis and therapy including cancer photothermal therapy, anticancer drug delivery, cancer-specific multimodal imaging and theranostics, etc. The remaining challenges and prospects of melanin-based nanoplatforms in biomedical applications are discussed at the end of this review.

Abstract
To achieve highly systemic therapeutic efficacy, chemotherapy is combined with photothermal therapy for chemo-photothermal synergistic therapy; however, this strategy suffers from high toxicity and unsatisfactory sensitivity for cancer cells. Herein, we developed a pH- and photothermal-responsive zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) compound for loading a dual-drug in the tumor site and improving their curative effects. Since autophagy always accompanies tumor progression and metastasis, there is an unmet need for an anticancer treatment related to the regulation of autophagy. Green tea polyphenols, namely, (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and doxorubicin (DOX), both of which exhibit anticancer activity, were dual-loaded via polydopamine (PDA) coating ZIF-8 (EGCG@ZIF-PDA-PEG-DOX, EZPPD for short) through hierarchical self-assembly. PDA could transfer photothermal energy to increase the temperature under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation. Due to its pH-response, EZPPD released EGCG and DOX in the tumor microenvironment, wherein the temperature increased with the help of PDA and NIR laser irradiation. The duo of DOX and EGCG induced autophagic flux and accelerated the formation of autophagosomes. In a mouse HeLa tumor model, photothermal-chemotherapy could ablate the tumor with a significant synergistic effect and potentiate the anticancer efficacy. Thus, the results indicate that EZPPD renders the key traits of a clinically promising candidate to address the challenges associated with synergistic chemotherapy and photothermal utilization in antitumor therapy.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy for tissue regeneration and repair. However, efficient targeted delivery to specific tissues remains an open challenge. Here, we non-invasively monitored the migration of MSCs labeled with Fe3O4@polydopamine nanoparticles (Fe3O4@PDA NPs) toward laser burn injury sites in a living rat model and evaluated the effects of the labeled MSCs at the injury site. The Fe3O4@PDA NPs could be effectively incorporated into the MSCs without any negative effects on stem cell properties. Furthermore, they enhanced the migration ability of the MSCs by up-regulating the expression level of C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4). They also increased the secretion of some cytokines and the expression of healing-related genes in comparison with unlabeled MSCs. Labeled MSCs were intravenously administered into injured rats, and live imaging was performed to monitor MSC migration. Fluorescent signals of the labeled MSCs appeared at burn injury lesions 1 day after injection and then gradually increased up to 7 days. After 7 days, the group injected with the labeled MSCs showed less inflammation compared with those injected with the unlabeled MSCs. Additionally, the labeled MSC group showed increased cytokines and reduced pro-inflammatory factors compared with the unlabeled MSC group. The Fe3O4@PDA NPs enhanced stromal cell-derived factor-1/CXCR4-mediated MSC migration in vivo. Thus, we demonstrated the safety, feasibility, and potential efficacy of using the Fe3O4@PDA NPs for optimizing MSC-based therapeutic strategies for burn wound healing.

Abstract
Integrating anticancer drugs and diagnostic agents in a polymer nanosystem is an emerging and promising strategy for improving cancer treatment. However, the development of multifunctional nanoparticles (NPs) for an "all-in-one" platform characterized by specific targeting, therapeutic efficiency, and imaging feedback remains an unmet clinical need. In this study, pH-responsive mixed-lanthanide-based multifunctional NPs were fabricated based on simple metal-ligand interactions for simultaneous cancer cell imaging and drug delivery. We investigated two new systems of alginate-polydopamine complexed with either terbium/europium or dysprosium/erbium oxide NPs (Tb/Eu@AlgPDA or Dy/Er@AlgPDA NPs). Tb/Eu@AlgPDA NPs were then functionalized with the tumor-targeting ligand folic acid (FA) and loaded with the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) to form FA-Tb/Eu@AlgPDA-DOX NPs. Using such systems, the mussel-inspired property of PDA was introduced to improve tumor targetability and penetration, in addition to active targeting (via FA-folate receptor interactions). Determining the photoluminescence efficiency showed that the Tb/Eu@AlgPDA system was superior to the Dy/Er@AlgPDA system, presenting intense and sharp emission peaks on the fluorescence spectra. In addition, compared to Dy/Er@AlgPDA NPs (82.4%), Tb/Eu@AlgPDA NPs exhibited negligible cytotoxicity with >93.3% HeLa cell viability found in MTT assays at NP concentrations of up to 0.50 mg/mL and high biocompatibility when incubated with zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos and larvae. The FA-Tb/Eu@AlgPDA-DOX system exhibited a pH-responsive and sustained drug-release pattern. In a spheroid model of HeLa cells, the FA-Tb/Eu@AlgPDA-DOX system showed a better penetration efficiency and spheroid growth-inhibitory effect than free DOX. After incubation with zebrafish embryos, the FA-Tb/Eu@AlgPDA-DOX system also showed improved antitumor efficacies versus the other experimental groups in HeLa tumor cell xenografted zebrafish. Therefore, our results suggested that FA-Tb/Eu@AlgPDA-DOX NPs are promising multifunctional nanocarriers with therapeutic capacity for tumor targeting and penetration.

Abstract
Nanocarriers sensitive to near infrared light (NIR) are useful templates for chemo-photothermal therapy (PTT) and imaging of tumors due to the ability to change the absorbed NIR energy to heat. The conventional photo-absorbing reagents lack the efficient loading and release of drug before reaching the target site leading to insufficient therapeutic outcomes. To overcome these limitations, the surface of nanocarriers can be modified with different polymers with wide functionalities to provide systems with diagnostic, therapeutic, and theranostic capabilities. Among various polymers, polydopamine (PDA) has been more interested due to complex structure with various chemical moieties, and the capacity to be used through different coating mechanism. In this review, we describe the complex structure, chemical properties, and coating mechanisms of PDA. Moreover, the advantage and surface modification of some relevant nanosystems based on carbon materials, gold, iron oxide, manganese, and upconverting nanomaterials by using PDA will be discussed, in detail.

Abstract
Here, we have successfully synthesised and purified multifunctional PLGA-based nanoparticles by the co-encapsulation of an anticancer drug (tetrandrine) and a magnetic material (Fe3O4). The obtained Tet-Fe3O4-PLGA NPs had a uniform spherical shape with a particle size of approximately 199 nm and a negative surface charge of -18.0 mV, displaying a high encapsulation efficiency. Furthermore, TEM studies provided representative images of the purification process of the magnetic nanoparticles with MACS® technology. The MFM and VSM results indicated that both the Fe3O4 NPs and Tet-Fe3O4-PLGA NPs were superparamagnetic. The DSC spectrum demonstrated that Tet was successfully encapsulated within the PLGA-based nanoparticles. Significantly, the release studies revealed NPs had a relatively slower release rate than free Tet after 8 h's initial burst release, which had decreased from 98% to 65% after 24 h. In vitro cellular studies revealed that NPs could effectively penetrate into A549 cells and A549 multicellular spheroids to exert cytotoxicity, displaying a significantly high anti-proliferation effect. Moreover, western blot demonstrated that the co-loaded NPs had a higher anticancer activity by injuring lysosomes to activate the mitochondria pathway and induce A549 cell apoptosis. The magnetic characteristics and high anticancer activity support the use of Tet/Fe3O4 co-loaded PLGA-based nanoparticles as a promising strategy in the treatment of lung cancer.

Abstract
The combination of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy is acknowledged as one of the most promising approaches in cancer treatment. Targeted delivery and controlled drug release are two important factors for combined chemo-photothermal therapy. In this study, a multifunctional nanoplatform based on gold nanorod (GNR) decorated with folate-conjugated poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(L-γ-glutamylhydrazine) (FEGGH) containing disulfide linker and dihydroxyphenyl groups was developed for targeted combined chemo-photothermal therapy of breast cancer. FEGGH was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization of γ-benzyl-l-glutamate-N-carboxyanhydride using folate/cystamine-heterobifunctionalized poly(ethylene glycol) as an initiator, following by hydrazinolysis and carbodiimide reactions. FEGGH was decorated onto GNR through Au-catechol bonds. Chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX) was loaded onto the nanoplatform through pH-sensitive hydrazone linkage, obtaining final product FEGGHDOX-GNR. The DOX-loaded nanoplatform displayed excellent photostability and reduction/pH dual-responsive drug release behavior. Cytological studies demonstrated the effective internalization of FEGGHDOX-GNR into MCF-7 cells via folate-mediated endocytosis and additive therapeutic effect of combined photothermal-chemotherapy. These results indicate that our nanoplatform may be a promising strategy for targeted combined chemo-photothermal therapy of breast cancer.

Abstract
The present study was carried out to investigate the potential of cationic functionalization on imatinib nanocrystals to improve the mucoadhesiveness and, thus, delivery to the lesion of cervicovaginal tumors. Amino-group-functionalized imatinib nanocrystals (NC@PDA-NH₂) were prepared with near-spheroid shape, nanoscale size distribution, positive zeta potential, and relatively high drug content with the aid of the polydopamine-coating technique. Efficient interaction between NC@PDA-NH₂ and mucin was proven by mucin adsorption which was related to the positive zeta-potential value of NC@PDA-NH₂ and the change in the size distribution on mixing of NC@PDA-NH₂ and mucin. Cellular uptake, growth inhibition, and apoptosis induction in cervicovaginal cancer-related cells demonstrated the superiority of NC@PDA-NH₂ over unmodified nanocrystals. For practical intravaginal administration, NC@PDA-NH₂ was dispersed in Pluronic F127-based thermosensitive in situ hydrogel, which showed suitable gelation temperature and sustained-release profiles. In comparison with unmodified nanocrystals, NC@PDA-NH₂ exhibited extended residence on ex vivo murine vaginal mucosa, prolonged in vivo intravaginal residence, and enhanced inhibition on the growth of murine orthotopic cervicovaginal model tumors indicated by smaller tumor size, longer median survival time, and more intratumor apoptosis with negligible mucosal toxicity. In conclusion, cationic functionalization endowed NC@PDA-NH₂ significant mucoadhesiveness and, thus, good potential against cervicovaginal cancer via intravaginal administration.

Abstract
Currently, the pharmacokinetics of liposomes was researched in vivo by measuring the total amount of drug in plasma. This method of using the total drug amount instead of the free drug amount virtually increase the apparent exposure and apparent biological distribution. To solve this problem, we developed a rapid and efficient method by using well-established streptavidin-functional Fe3O4@PDA as the separation nanoprobes to efficiently isolate biotin-labeled DTX-liposomes over 75% from plasma in the presence of magnetic field. The isolation procedure takes only 20 min and the concentration of DTX in liposomes from plasma was determined by LC-MS/MS. The method for the determination of DTX in plasma was linear in the range of 5-5000 ng/mL, and the correlation coefficient was 0.9989. Results obtained in this study clearly demonstrated that the pharmacokinetic parameters of non-liposomal drug and total drug are different in vivo. Therefore, traditional method for studying the pharmacokinetics of liposomes in vivo is unreasonable, and the new method mentioned here provided a strategy for studying the pharmacokinetics of liposomes.

Abstract
Inspired by the bionics of marine mussels, polydopamine (PDA), a new polymer with unique physicochemical properties was discovered. Due to its simple preparation, good biocompatibility, unique drug-loading methods, PDA has attracted tremendous attentions in field of drug delivery and imaging, and the combination of chemotherapy and other therapies or diagnostic methods, such as photothermotherapy (PTT), photoacoustic imaging (PAI), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), etc. As an excellent drug carrier in tumor targeted drug delivery system, the drug release behavior of drug-loaded PDA-based nanoparticles is also an important factor to be considered in the establishment of drug delivery systems. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the various applications of PDA in tumor targeted drug delivery systems and to gain insight into the release behavior of the drug-loaded PDA-based nanocarriers. A sufficient understanding and discussion of these aspects is expected to provide a better way to design more rational and effective PDA-based tumor nano-targeted delivery systems. Apart from this, the prospects for the future application of PDA in this field and some unique insights are listed at the end of the article.

Abstract
Functionalized-nanoparticles have been developed as novel therapeutic delivery platform for simultaneous drug loading and therapy over the past decade. Rationally-designed biocompatible nanosystem simultaneously with multistimuli-responsive property and synergistic therapeutic potential are highly desirable for modern biological applications. Herein, Cu2Se nanoparticles (Cu2SeNPs) with suitable size have been functionalized by bull serum albumin (BSA) through a simply, facile and controllable method. As a result, Cu2SeNPs modified by BSA (BSA-Cu2SeNPs) showed excellent biocompatibility and stability. The strong absorbance of BSA-Cu2SeNPs at near infrared region imparts them with high photothermal efficiency. Then loading doxorubicin (DOX, anticancer drug) on the surface of BSA-Cu2SeNPs, and consequently, a novel multifunctional nanosystem of BSA-Cu2SeNPs-DOX is designed. The BSA-Cu2SeNPs can achieve high DOX loading capacity (approximately 157 μg DOX per mg of Cu2Se). Furthermore, a rational and precise release of DOX from the BSA-Cu2SeNPs-DOX could be easily realized under the stimulates of the pH and temperature, which remarkably improved antitumor efficacy of combined chemotherapy and photothermal therapy triggered by 808 nm NIR laser. Thus, the BSA-Cu2SeNPs-DOX could serve as an ideal nanoplatform for cancer diagnosis and treatment in future. The results of cell experiments show that the BSA-Cu2SeNPs-DOX exhibited favorable selective cellular uptake cells. Under the NIR laser irradiation, BSA-Cu2SeNPs-DOX could induce the excessive expression of ROS, eventually leading to the death of U251 cells. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments indicate that the nanosystem of BSA-Cu2SeNPs-DOX showed excellent synergistic therapeutic effect and multistimuli-responsive drug vehicle, which will exert huge potential for future clinical application.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy is a kind of therapy based on increasing the temperature of tumoral cells above 42 °C. To this aim, cells must be illuminated with a laser, and the energy of the radiation is transformed in heat. Usually, the employed radiation belongs to the near-infrared radiation range. At this range, the absorption and scattering of the radiation by the body is minimal. Thus, tissues are almost transparent. To improve the efficacy and selectivity of the energy-to-heat transduction, a light-absorbing material, the photothermal agent, must be introduced into the tumor. At present, a vast array of compounds are available as photothermal agents. Among the substances used as photothermal agents, gold-based compounds are one of the most employed. However, the undefined toxicity of this metal hinders their clinical investigations in the long run. Magnetic nanoparticles are a good alternative for use as a photothermal agent in the treatment of tumors. Such nanoparticles, especially those formed by iron oxides, can be used in combination with other substances or used themselves as photothermal agents. The combination of magnetic nanoparticles with other photothermal agents adds more capabilities to the therapeutic system: the nanoparticles can be directed magnetically to the site of interest (the tumor) and their distribution in tumors and other organs can be imaged. When used alone, magnetic nanoparticles present, in theory, an important limitation: their molar absorption coefficient in the near infrared region is low. The controlled clustering of the nanoparticles can solve this drawback. In such conditions, the absorption of the indicated radiation is higher and the conversion of energy in heat is more efficient than in individual nanoparticles. On the other hand, it can be designed as a therapeutic system, in which the heat generated by magnetic nanoparticles after irradiation with infrared light can release a drug attached to the nanoparticles in a controlled manner. This form of targeted drug delivery seems to be a promising tool of chemo-phototherapy. Finally, the heating efficiency of iron oxide nanoparticles can be increased if the infrared radiation is combined with an alternating magnetic field.
