Abstract
Cisplatin (CDDP), as a broad-spectrum anticancer drug, is able to bind to DNA and inhibit cell division. Despite the widespread use of cisplatin since its discovery, cisplatin resistance developed during prolonged chemotherapy, similar to other small molecule chemotherapeutic agents, severely limits its clinical application. Cisplatin resistance in cancer cells is mainly caused by three reasons: DNA repair, decreased cisplatin uptake/increased efflux, and cisplatin inactivation. In earlier combination therapies, the emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer cells prevented the achievement of the desired therapeutic effect even with the accurate combination of two chemotherapeutic drugs. Therefore, combination therapy using nanocarriers for co-delivery of drugs is considered to be ideal for alleviating cisplatin resistance and reducing cisplatin-related toxicity in cancer cells. This article provides an overview of the design of cisplatin nano-drugs used to combat cancer cell resistance, elucidates the mechanisms of action of cisplatin and the pathways through which cancer cells develop resistance, and finally discusses the design of drugs and related carriers that can synergistically reduce cancer resistance when combined with cisplatin.

Abstract
The development of novel anticancer drugs with antiproliferative and antimetastatic activities is of great importance in the pharmaceutical field. Herein, a series of ligustrazine (LSZ) platinum(IV) complexes with chemotherapeutic and immunotherapeutic effects were designed, prepared and evaluated as antitumor agents for the first time. Complex 4 with potent antitumor activities both in vitro and in vivo was screened out as a candidate. Notably, it displays significantly more effective anti-metastatic activities than the platinum(II) drugs cisplatin and oxaliplatin. Mechanism detection discloses that it causes serious DNA damage and increases the expression of γ-H2AX and P53. Then, the apoptosis of tumor cells is promoted by activating the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway Bcl-2/Bax/caspase-3 and causing autophagy via modulating LC3-I/II and P62 expression. Furthermore, the immune therapeutic responses are significantly elevated by blocking HIF-1α, ERK 1/2 and COX-2 pathways to reduce PD-L1 expression, and further increasing CD3+ and CD8+ T cells to elevate T cell immunity in tumors. Tumor metastasis is blocked by the synergistic functions of DNA damage, hypoxia modulation and immune activation.

Abstract
Cancer cells are under oxidative stress associated with the increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Therefore, increasing the oxidative stress of tumor cells by delivering ROS generators is an effective strategy to induce apoptosis of cancer cells. Herein, we reported a hybrid nanoparticle based on lactobionic acid (LA) modified chitosan and cinnamaldehyde (CA) modified chitosan, which possesses both active tumor-targeting ability and ROS regulation ability, in order to have a synergistic effect with the anti-tumor drug doxorubicin (DOX). LA can improve the tumor-targeting ability and cellular accumulation of these nanoparticles, and CA can induce apoptotic cell death through ROS generation, mitochondrial permeability transition and caspase activation. The particle size and distribution as well as drug release profiles of these nanoparticles were observed. In vitro and in vivo antitumor studies demonstrated that the hybrid nanoparticles show a significant synergistic antitumor effect. Thus, we anticipate that the hybrid nanoparticles have promising potential as an anticancer drug carrier.

Abstract
Pulmonary diseases such as lung cancer, asthma and tuberculosis have remained one of the common challenges globally. Polymeric micelles (PMs) have emerged as an effective technique for achieving targeted drug delivery for a local as well as a systemic effect. These PMs encapsulate and protect hydrophobic drugs, increase pulmonary targeting, decrease side effects and enhance drug efficacy through the inhalation route. In the current review, emphasis has been placed on the different barriers encountered by the drugs given via the pulmonary route and the mechanism of PMs in achieving drug targeting. The applications of PMs in different pulmonary diseases have also been discussed in detail.

Abstract
In this work, we prepared pH/redox dual-responsive mixed polyprodrug micelles (MPPMs), which were co-assembled from two polyprodrugs, namely, poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether-b-poly (β-amino esters) conjugated with doxorubicin (DOX) via redox-sensitive disulfide bonds (mPEG-b-PAE-ss-DOX) and poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether-b-poly (β-amino esters) conjugated with DOX via pH-sensitive cis-aconityl bonds (mPEG-b-PAE-cis-DOX) for effective anticancer drug delivery with enhanced therapeutic efficacy. The particle size of MPPMs was about 125 nm with low polydispersity index, indicating the reasonable size and uniform dispersion. The particle size, zeta-potential, and critical micelle concentration (CMC) of MPPMs at different mass ratios of the two kinds of polyprodrugs were dependent on pH value and glutathione (GSH) level, suggesting the pH and redox responsiveness. The drug release profiles in vitro of MPPMs at different conditions were further studied, showing the pH—and redox-triggered drug release mechanism. Confocal microscopy study demonstrated that MPPMs can effectively deliver doxorubicin molecules into MDA-MB-231 cells. Cytotoxicity assay in vitro proved that MPPMs possessed high toxic effect against tumor cells including A549 and MDA-MB-231. The results of in vivo experiments demonstrated that MPPMs were able to effectively inhibit the tumor growth with reduced side effect, leading to enhanced survival rate of tumor-bearing mice. Taken together, these findings revealed that this pH/redox dual-responsive MPPMs could be a potential nanomedicine for cancer chemotherapy. Furthermore, it could be a straightforward way to fabricate the multifunctional system basing on single stimuli-responsive polyprodrugs.

Abstract
Lung cancer is a significant health problem worldwide. Unfortunately, current therapeutic strategies lack a sufficient level of specificity and can harm adjacent healthy cells. Consequently, to address the clinical need, novel approaches to improve treatment efficiency with minimal side effects are required. Nanotechnology can substantially contribute to the generation of differentiated products and improve patient outcomes. Evidence from previous research suggests that nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems could provide a promising platform for the targeted delivery of traditional chemotherapeutic drugs and novel small molecule therapeutic agents to treat lung cancer cells more effectively. This has also been found to improve the therapeutic index and reduce the required drug dose. Nanodrug delivery systems also provide precise control over drug release, resulting in reduced toxic side effects, controlled biodistribution, and accelerated effects or responses. This review highlights the most advanced and novel nanotechnology-based strategies, including targeted nanodrug delivery systems, stimuli-responsive nanoparticles, and bio-nanocarriers, which have recently been employed in preclinical and clinical investigations to overcome the current challenges in lung cancer treatments.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging is an important technique used for early diagnosis and effective treatment of some incurable diseases including cancer. Herein, we report novel NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+@silica-TPGS bio-nano complexes for labeling cancer cells. The NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+ nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal route, further coated with a silica shell, and functionalized with d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS). The experimental results indicate that NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+@silica-TPGS emits stronger upconversion luminescence than NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+ under an excitation of 980 nm. More significantly, the NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+@silica-TPGS bio-nano complexes could strongly label MCF-7 breast cancer cells for in vitro experiments detected by a fluorescence microscope. On the other hand, the complex could not typically probe healthy cells, which are HEK-293A human embryonic kidney cells, under the same experimental conditions. Because of their strong upconversion luminescence, good dispersibility, and biocompatibility, NaYF4:Yb3+/Er3+@silica-TPGS bio-nano complexes can be a promising candidate/probe for biomedical labeling and diagnostics.

Abstract
Chemotherapy efficiency of platinum(II) (Pt(II)) is often attenuated owing to the low intracellular drugs concentration and glutathione (GSH)-mediated detoxification. To address these problems, we fabricated a step-by-step responsive nanogel (~160 nm) by copolymerization between four functional monomers. Hydrophilic methoxypolyethylene glycols (mPEG) distributedrandomly on the surface of particles endowed the nanogel with "stealth" property in blood circulation, while the chemical crosslinking inside particles by platinum(IV) (Pt(IV)) linker remarkably increased the stability of nanogel in vivo. These advantages of nanogels leaded to higher accumulation at tumor region (6.4% ID/g), followed by triggering the dePEGylation effect by the cleavage of ortho ester at tumoral extracellular pH. Meanwhile, the exposed phenylboric acid (PBA) could significantly increase cellular uptake and intracellular drugs levels by targteing sialic acid residues on the cells membrane. More importantly, this nanogels could further deplete intracellular glutathione (GSH) by the dual-regulation of platinum(IV) and arylboronic ester, resulting in enhanced platinum(II) toxicity both in vitro and in vivo, eventually achieving superior inhibition rate (79.14%) in A549/DDP tumor. Thus, the sequentially responsive nanogel could be considered as an effective strategy for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Despite tremendous research in targeted delivery and specific molecular inhibitors (gene delivery), cytotoxic drug delivery through inhalation has been seen as a core part in the treatment of the lung cancer. Inhalation delivery provides a high dose of the drug directly to the lungs without affecting other body organs, increasing the therapeutic ratio. This article reviews the research performed over the last several decades regarding inhalation delivery of various cancer therapeutics for the treatment of lung cancer. Nevertheless, pulmonary administration of nanocarrier-based cancer therapeutics for lung cancer therapy is still in its infancy and faces greater than expected challenges. This article focuses on the current inhalable nanocarrier-based drugs for lung cancer treatment.

Abstract
Novel polysaccharide-platinum conjugated polymers bearing alendronate on Portulaca oleracea polysaccharides (PPS) were designed and synthesized. Their chemical structures and properties were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), 1H NMR and 31P NMR spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), UV-vis spectrophotometer (UV-vis) and other analysis methods. The results demonstrated that alendronate can be used as the linker of Portulaca oleracea polysaccharides and platinum compounds. Portulaca oleracea polysaccharides-alendronate (PPS-ALN) conjugates exhibited stronger antioxidant ability than PPS. The cytotoxicity assay to cancer cells was tested in vitro, and the Portulaca oleracea polysaccharides-alendronate-platinum (PPS-ALN-Pt) conjugates strongly inhibited the proliferation of cancer cells than PPS and PPS-ALN. The evaluation of complexes affinity toward supercoiled plasmid DNA, displayed a high DNA interaction. Interestingly, the platinum conjugates displayed immunological competence in HeLa cells by cellular immunofluorescence assay. Besides, the cellular platinum accumulation of PPS-ALN-Pt conjugates was higher than that of cisplatin in HeLa cells, implying that the polysaccharide-platinum conjugated polymers might have a synergistically therapeutic application in metal anticancer drug delivery.
