Abstract
For unique surface plasmon absorption and fluorescence characteristics, gold nanorods have been developed and widely employed in the biomedical field. However, limitations still exist due their low specific surface area, instability and tendency agglomerate in cytoplasm. Mesoporous silica materials have been broadly applied in field of catalysts, adsorbents, nanoreactors, and drug carriers due to its unique mesoporous structure, highly comparative surface area, good stability and biocompatibility. Therefore, coating gold nanorods with a dendritic mesopore channels can effectively prevent particle agglomeration, while increasing the specific surface area and drug loading efficiency. This review discusses the advancements of GNR@MSN in synthetic process, bio-imaging technique and tumor therapy. Additionally, the further application of GNR@MSN in imaging-guided treatment modalities is explored, while its promising superior application prospect is highlighted. Finally, the issues related to in vivo studies are critically examined for facilitating the transition of this promising nanoplatform into clinical trials.

Recent applications of phase-change materials in tumor therapy and theranostics. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2023; 147:213309. [PMID: 36739784 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2023.213309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 01/14/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Phase-change materials (PCMs) are a type of special material which can store and release a large amount of thermal energy without any significant temperature change. They are emerging in recent years as a promising functional material in tumor therapy and theranostics due to their accurate responses to the temperature variations, biocompatibility and low toxicity. In this review, we will introduce the main types of PCMs and their desirable physiochemical properties for biomedical applications, and highlight the recent progress of PCM's applications in the modulated release of antitumor drugs, with special attentions paid to various ways to initiate temperature-dependent phase change, the concomitant thermal therapy and its combination with or activation of other therapies, particularly unconventional therapies. We will also summarize PCM's recent applications in tumor theranostics, where both drugs and imaging probes are delivered by PCMs for controlled drug release and imaging-guided therapy. Finally, the future perspectives and potential limitations of harnessing PCMs in tumor therapy will be discussed.

Abstract
The integration of metal-ion therapy and hydroxyl radical (˙OH)-mediated chemodynamic therapy (CDT) holds great potential for anticancer treatment with high specificity and efficiency. Herein, Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were enveloped with Cu2+-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and further decorated with hyaluronic acid (HA) to construct a glutathione (GSH)-activated nanoplatform (Ag@HKU-HA) for specific chemodynamic/metal-ion therapy. The obtained nanoplatform could avoid the premature leakage of Ag in circulation, but realize the release of Ag at the tumor site owing to the degradation of external MOFs triggered by Cu2+-reduced glutathione. The generated Cu+ could catalyze endogenous H2O2 to the highly toxic ˙OH by a Fenton-like reaction. Meanwhile, Ag NPs were oxidized to toxic Ag ions in the tumor environment. As expect, the effect of CDT combined with metal-ion therapy exhibited an excellent inhibition of tumor cells growth. Therefore, this nanoplatform may provide a promising strategy for on-demand site-specific cancer combination treatment.

Abstract
Photoactivated therapeutic strategies (photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy), due to the adjusted therapeutic area, time and light dosage, have prevailed for the fight against tumors. Currently, the monotherapy with limited treatment effect and undesired side effects is gradually replaced by multimodal and multifunctional nanosystems. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with unique physicochemical advantages, such as huge specific surface area, controllable pore size and morphology, functionalized modification, satisfying biocompatibility and biodegradability, are considered as promising candidates for multimodal photoactivated cancer therapy. Excitingly, the innovative nanoplatforms based on the mesoporous silica nanoparticles provide more and more effective treatment strategies and display excellent antitumor potential. Given the rapid development of antitumor strategies based on MSNs, this review summarizes the current progress in MSNs-based photoactivated cancer therapy, mainly consists of (1) photothermal therapy-related theranostics; (2) photodynamic therapy-related theranostics; (3) multimodal synergistic therapy, such as chemo-photothermal-photodynamic therapy, phototherapy-immunotherapy and phototherapy-radio therapy. Based on the limited penetration of irradiation light in photoactivated therapy, the challenges faced by deep-seated tumor therapy are fully discussed, and future clinical translation of MSNs-based photoactivated cancer therapy are highlighted.

Abstract
Phase change materials (PCMs) are widely used in solar energy utilization, industrial waste heat recovery and building temperature regulation. However, there have been few studies on the application of PCMs in the field of biomedicine. In recent years, some scholars have carried out research in the biomedicine field using the characteristics of PCMs. It was observed that the excellent properties of PCMs enhance the quality of a variety of biomedical applications with many advantages over existing applications, which provide new methods for the treatment of disease. PCMs have broad application prospects in the field of biomedicine. Therefore, a timely review of relevant research progress is of great significance for the continuous development of new methods. Innovatively, from the unique perspective of the biomedical field, this paper systematically reviews the application and related research progress of PCMs from four aspects: cold chains for vaccines and medicines, drug delivery systems, thermotherapy/cold compress therapy and medical dressings. In addition, we summarize and discuss the general principles of the design and construction of PCMs in the biomedical field. Finally, existing problems, solutions and future research directions are also put forward in order to provide a basis for guidance and promote the future applications of phase change materials in the biomedicine field.

Abstract
Proteases have a fundamental role in maintaining physiological homeostasis, but their dysregulation results in severe activity imbalance and pathological conditions, including cancer onset, progression, invasion, and metastasis. This striking importance plus superior biological recognition and catalytic performance of proteases, combining with the excellent physicochemical characteristics of nanomaterials, results in enzyme-activated nano-drug delivery systems (nanoDDS) that perform theranostic functions in highly specific response to the tumor phenotype stimulus. In the tutorial review, the key advances of protease-responsive nanoDDS in the specific diagnosis and targeted treatment for malignancies are emphatically classified according to the effector biomolecule types, on the premise of summarizing the structure and function of each protease. Subsequently, the incomplete matching and recognition between enzyme and substrate, structural design complexity, volume production, and toxicological issues related to the nanocomposites are highlighted to clarify the direction of efforts in nanotheranostics. This will facilitate the promotion of nanotechnology in the management of malignant tumors.

Abstract
Combined antitumor therapies based on nanomedicines have shown efficacy in various tumor models in recent years, overcoming the disadvantages of inefficiency and undesired toxicity of traditional therapies. Herein, we present a copper sulfide- and doxorubicin-loaded gold nanorods@mesoporous SiO2 multifunctional nanocomposite (AuNR@mSiO2@DOX-CuxS-PEG) to integrate chemotherapy, the photothermal properties of AuNRs, and the photodynamic properties of CuxS into a single nanoplatform based on hydrophobic interaction and electrostatic attraction. Upon near-infrared light irradiation, the AuNR@mSiO2@DOX-CuxS-PEG nanocomposites exhibit a synergistic therapeutic effect and inhibit the in situ tumor growth and lung metastasis in a melanoma model. This occurs because of the high photothermal conversion efficiency, boosted intracellular reactive oxygen species production, and excellent doxorubicin (DOX) release, as well as an induced tumor-specific immune response. The inspired antitumor immunity was confirmed by elevated infiltration of activated T cells in tumor tissues and improved maturation and activation of dendritic cells in tumor-draining lymph nodes. This study highlights the superior antitumor therapeutic effect elicited by a multifunctional nanoplatform for skin with in situ melanoma and lung metastasis inhibition, indicating its satisfactory clinical application prospects.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is one of conventional treatment methods for breast cancer, but drug toxicity and side effects have severely limited its clinical applications. Photothermal therapy has emerged as a promising method that, upon combination with chemotherapy, can better treat breast cancer. In this context, a biodegradable mesoporous silica nanoparticle (bMSN NPs) system was developed for loading doxorubicin (DOX) and IR780, to be potentially applied in the treatment of breast cancer. IR780 is encapsulated in the pores of bMSN NPs by hydrophobic adsorption, while DOX is adsorbed on the surface of the bMSN NPs by hyaluronic acid electrostatically, to form the bMID NPs. Transmission electron microscopy, fluorescence spectrum and UV absorption spectrum are used to prove the successful encapsulation of IR780 and the loading of DOX. In vitro experiments have shown bMID NPs present an excellent therapeutic effect on breast cancer cells. In vivo fluorescence imaging results have indicated that bMID NPs can accumulate in tumor sites gradually and achieve in vivo long-term circulation and continuous drug release. Furthermore, bMID NPs have provided obvious antitumor effects in breast cancer mouse models, thus evolving as an efficient platform for breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
Considering the key roles of macrophages in tissue repair and immune therapy, designing smart biomaterials able to harness macrophage phenotypes on demand during the healing process has become a promising strategy. Here, a novel "sandwich" cell culture platform with near-infrared (NIR) responsive dynamic stiffness was fabricated to polarize bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) in situ for revealing the relationship between the macrophage phenotype and substrate stiffness dynamically. Under NIR irradiation, calcium ions (Ca2+) diffused through the middle layer of the IR780-mixed phase change material (PCM) due to the photothermal effect of IR780, resulting in an increase of hydrogel stiffness in situ by the crosslinking of the upper layer of the hyaluronic acid-sodium alginate hydrogel (MA-HA&SA). The up-regulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was quantified by immunostaining and enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA), respectively, indicating the transformation of macrophages from the anti-inflammatory to pro-inflammatory phenotype under dynamic stiffness. The nuclear Yes-associated-protein (YAP) ratio positively correlated with the shift of the macrophage phenotype. The modulation of macrophage phenotypes by stiffness-rise without the stimuli of cytokines offers an effective and noninvasive strategy to manipulate immune reactions to achieve optimized healing or therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
Infectious or immune diseases have caused serious threat to human health due to their complexity and specificity, and emerging drug delivery systems (DDSs) have evolved into the most promising therapeutic strategy for drug-targeted therapy. Various mesoporous biomaterials are exploited and applied as efficient nanocarriers to loading drugs by virtue of their large surface area, high porosity, and prominent biocompatibility. Nanosized mesoporous nanocarriers show great potential in biomedical research, and it has become the research hotspot in the interdisciplinary field. Herein, recent progress and assembly mechanisms on mesoporous inorganic biomaterials (e.g., silica, carbon, metal oxide) are summarized systematically, and typical functionalization methods (i.e., hybridization, polymerization, and doping) for nanocarriers are also discussed in depth. Particularly, structure-activity relationship and the effect of physicochemical parameters of mesoporous biomaterials, including morphologies (e.g., hollow, core-shell), pore textures (e.g., pore size, pore volume), and surface features (e.g., roughness and hydrophilic/hydrophobic) in DDS application are overviewed and elucidated in detail. As one of the important development directions, advanced stimuli-responsive DDSs (e.g., pH, temperature, redox, ultrasound, light, magnetic field) are highlighted. Finally, the prospect of mesoporous biomaterials in disease therapeutics is stated, and it will open a new spring for the development of mesoporous nanocarriers.

Abstract
Cutting off the energy supply by glucose oxidase (GOx) to starve cancer cells has been a feasible and efficient oncotherapy strategy. The employment of GOx can effectively starve tumor cells by aerobic hydrolysis of glucose hopefully strengthening the abnormality (including the decrease in pH, the increase of hypoxia, and toxic hydrogen peroxide) in the tumor microenvironment (TME). On this basis, we designed and fabricated a GOx-conjugated yolk-shell Ag@mSiO2 nanoframe with Ag NPs and GOx-conjugated mesoporous silica as the yolk and the shell, respectively, to make full use of changes the GOx induces in TME. Specifically, lower pH and H2O2 could accelerate the transformation of Ag nanoparticles to poisonous Ag ions. At the same time, the anabatic hypoxia condition in turn activated chemotherapy drug tirapazamine (TPZ) to exert a chemotherapeutic effect, thereby achieving effective chemo/starvation and metal ion multimodality therapy. The drug release experiment in vitro demonstrated that the GOx is the key to the nanocarriers, which can activate the whole system. The excellent cellular uptake performances of nanocarriers were corroborated by a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). In addition, its superb cancer-killing effect has been confirmed by cytotoxicity and apoptosis experiments. These results indicated that the drug-delivery system achieved the cascade cancer-killing process in situ and synergistic chemo/starvation/metal ion therapy, which has a bright prospect for treating cancer.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was the investigation of the potential of MIL-101(Fe) for load and sustained release of curcumin (CCM), as an anticancer drug, with pH stimulus. The reasons for choosing this type of metal-organic framework (MOF) are its high surface area, acceptable stability in a water medium, and its biocompatible components (iron and terephthalic acid) with low toxicity to normal cells. The obtained results from UV-vis analysis confirmed that this MOF is a smart carrier with a higher release rate in acidic pH (pH 5), which is a condition similar to that in cancer cells, than that at pH 7.4 (in normal cells). Therefore, this MOF is a pH-stimulus-controlled release carrier with 56.3% drug loading content and sustained drug release over 22 days. In order to evaluate the cell viability after treatment with free CCM, MIL-101(Fe), and MIL-101(Fe)@CCM, the cytotoxicity investigation using MTT assays was performed against HeLa and HEK 293 cell lines up to 48 h. Obtained results showed that MIL-101(Fe)@CCM exhibited more cell growth inhibition effect on HeLa cells in comparison with HEK 293. One of the reasons for the high loading and sustained release of CCM was surface adsorption of this drug and its interactions with open metal sites in MIL-101(Fe). In the end, the kinetic models of drug release were evaluated, and the obtained results showed that in this case diffusion is the main driving force for the drug release process.

Abstract
In this study, a versatile doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded yolk-shell nano-particles (HMCMD) assembled with manganese dioxide (MnO2) as the core and copper sulfide (HMCuS) as the mesoporous (∼ 6.4 nm) shell, was designed and synthesized. The resulting HMCMD possess excellent photothermal conversion efficiency. The DOX release from the yolk-shell nanoparticles could be promoted by laser irradiation, which increased the chemotherapy of DOX. Meanwhile, Mn2+ could be released from the HMCMD through a redox reaction between MnO2 and abundant glutathione (GSH) in tumor cells. The released Mn2+ could promote the decomposition of the intracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by Fenton-like reaction to generate the highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH), thus exhibiting the effective chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Additionally, the efficiency of Mn2+-mediated CDT could be effectively enhanced by NIR irradiation. Further modification of polyethylene glycol (PEG) would improve the water solubility of the HMCMD to promote the uptake by MCF-7 cells. Hence, the HMCMD with synergistic effects of chemotherapy and chemodynamic/photothermal therapy would provide an alternative strategy in antitumor research.

Abstract
The rigorous reaction conditions (sufficient H2O2 and a low pH value) of an efficient Fenton reaction limit its further biomedical translation. Therefore, it is urgent to improve the efficacy of the Fenton reaction at the tumor site for efficient ferroptotic therapy. Herein, a hypoxia-responsive-Azo-BSA functionalized biomimetic nanoreactor (Fe(iii)-GA/GOx@ZIF-Azo), encapsulating ultrasmall ferric-gallic acid coordination polymer nanoparticles (Fe(iii)-GA) and glucose oxidase (GOx) into a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), was constructed for tumor ablation through an intensive Fenton reaction accelerated by not only sustained Fe2+ and H2O2 supply but also low pH and photothermal stimulation. Moreover, Azo achieved charge reversal in a hypoxia microenvironment caused by the sustained oxygen consumption by GOx, which resulted in selective and enhanced tumor accumulation based on the hypoxia-activated positive feedback cellular uptake. This rationally designed biomimetic nanoreactor might lay a foundation for the clinical translation of ferroptotic therapy.

Abstract
Until now, ferroptotic therapeutic strategies remain simple, although ferroptosis has aroused extensive interest owing to its escape from the biocarriers of conventional therapeutic modalities. Herein, we construct a photothermal (PT)- and autophagy-enhanced ferroptotic therapeutic modality based on MnO2@HMCu2-xS nanocomposites (HMCMs) for efficient tumor ablation. The HMCMs possess PT-enhanced glutathione (GSH) depletion capability, thereby inducing PT-enhanced ferroptosis via the reinforced inactivation of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). Thereafter, the GSH-responsed Mn2+ release could generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) by a Fenton-like reaction to reinforce the intracellular oxidative stress for the lipid hydroperoxide (LPO) accumulation in ferroptosis. Additionally, an autophagy promotor rapamycin (Rapa) was loaded into HMCM for sensitizing cells to ferroptosis due to the indispensable role of autophagy in the ferroptosis process. The in vitro and in vivo data demonstrated that the HMCM exhibited superior anticancer effect in human breast cancer models and that the combined therapeutic system afforded the next generation of ferroptotic therapy for combatting malignant tumors.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are synthetic polymers that possess cavities selective towards their molecular templates and have found many applications in separation science, drug delivery, and catalysis. Here, we report the synthesis of doxorubicin-imprinted microparticles cross-linked with two different compounds (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate or trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate) and examination of their physicochemical properties. During the synthesis methacrylic acid was used as functional monomer and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate was added into polymerization mixture to increase hydrophilicity of the obtained materials and therefore improve interactions with aqueous release medium. The influence of initial concentration and contact time onto doxorubicin adsorption by obtained MIPs microparticles have been investigated. The microparticles obtained using ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as a cross-linker showed 3 times higher adsorption properties towards doxorubicin, than the ones obtained using trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate cross-linker. The release kinetics of doxorubicin from drug-loaded MIPs microparticles has been proven to be dependent upon cross-linker used and pH of the release medium. For drug-loaded MIPs microparticles obtained using both cross-linkers the IC50 values measured for cancer cell were comparable to the ones measured for pure doxorubicin, whereas the cytotoxicity towards normal HDF cell lines was lower.
