J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 670:499-508. [PMID: 38776685 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.05.067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Manganese oxide nanoparticles (MONs)-based contrast agents have attracted increasing attention for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), attributed to their good biocompatibility and advantageous paramagnetism. However, conventional MONs have poor imaging performance due to low T1 relaxivity. Additionally, their lack of tumor-targeting theranostics capabilities and complex synthesis pathways have impeded clinical applications. Rutin (Ru) is an ideal tumor-targeted ligand that targets glucose transporters (GLUTs) overexpressed in various malignant tumors, and exhibits photothermal effects upon chelation with metal ions. Herein, a series of Ru-coated MONs (Ru/MnO2) were synthesized using a straightforward, rapid one-step process. Specifically, Ru/MnO2-5, with the smallest crystal size of approximately 4 nm, exhibits the highest T1 relaxivity (33.3 mM-1s-1 at 1.5 T, surpassing prior MONs) along with notable stability, photothermal efficacy, and tumor-targeting ability. Furthermore, Ru/MnO2-5 shows promise in MRI and photothermal therapy of H22 tumors owing to its superior GLUTs-mediated tumor-targeting capability.

Brain-targeting biomimetic disguised manganese dioxide nanoparticles via hybridization of tumor cell membrane and bacteria vesicles for synergistic chemotherapy/chemodynamic therapy of glioma.

Abstract
Glioma is a prevalent brain malignancy associated with poor prognosis. Although chemotherapy serves as the primary treatment for brain tumors, its effectiveness is hindered by the limited ability of drugs to traverse the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the development of drug resistance linked to tumor hypoxia. Herein, we report the creation of hybrid camouflaged multifunctional nanovesicles comprising membranes of tumor C6 cells (mT) and bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) and co-loaded with manganese dioxide nanoparticles (MnO2 NPs) and doxorubicin (DOX) to synergistically enhance the chemotherapy/chemodynamic therapy (CDT) of glioma. Owing to OMV-mediated BBB penetration and mT-inherited tumor-homing properties, MnO2-DOX@mT/OMVs can penetrate the BBB and enhance the tumor cell-specific uptake of DOX via "proton sponge effect"-mediated lysosomal escape. This enhances the apoptotic effect induced by DOX and minimizing DOX-associated cardiotoxicity by facilitating the accumulation of DOX at the tumor site. Furthermore, the MnO2 NPs in MnO2-DOX@mT/OMVs can generate potent CDT by accelerating the Fenton-like reaction with DOX-generated H2O2 and achieving glutathione (GSH)-depletion-induced glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) inactivation. These results showed that MnO2-DOX@mT/OMVs, designed for brain tumor targeting, significantly inhibited tumor growth and exhibited favorable biological safety. This innovative approach offers the augmentation of anticancer treatment efficacy via a potential combination of chemotherapy and CDT.

Abstract
Phototherapy, also known as photobiological therapy, is a non-invasive and highly effective physical treatment method. Its broad use in clinics has led to significant therapeutic results. Phototherapy parameters, such as intensity, wavelength, and duration, can be adjusted to create specific therapeutic effects for various medical conditions. Meanwhile, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), with its diverse imaging sequences and excellent soft-tissue contrast, provides a valuable tool to understand the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of phototherapy. This review explores the clinical applications of commonly used phototherapy techniques, gives a brief overview of how phototherapy impacts different diseases, and examines MRI's role in various phototherapeutic scenarios. We argue that MRI is crucial for precise targeting, treatment monitoring, and prognosis assessment in phototherapy. Future research and applications will focus on personalized diagnosis and monitoring of phototherapy, expanding its applications in treatment and exploring multimodal imaging technology to enhance diagnostic and therapeutic precision and effectiveness.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a temporally and spatially precisely controllable, noninvasive, and potentially highly efficient method of phototherapy. The three components of PDT primarily include photosensitizers, oxygen, and light. PDT employs specific wavelengths of light to active photosensitizers at the tumor site, generating reactive oxygen species that are fatal to tumor cells. Nevertheless, traditional photosensitizers have disadvantages such as poor water solubility, severe oxygen-dependency, and low targetability, and the light is difficult to penetrate the deep tumor tissue, which remains the toughest task in the application of PDT in the clinic. Here, we systematically summarize the development and the molecular mechanisms of photosensitizers, and the challenges of PDT in tumor management, highlighting the advantages of nanocarriers-based PDT against cancer. The development of third generation photosensitizers has opened up new horizons in PDT, and the cooperation between nanocarriers and PDT has attained satisfactory achievements. Finally, the clinical studies of PDT are discussed. Overall, we present an overview and our perspective of PDT in the field of tumor management, and we believe this work will provide a new insight into tumor-based PDT.

Abstract
The constraints associated with current cancer therapies have inspired scientists to develop advanced, precise, and safe drug delivery methods. These delivery systems boost treatment effectiveness, minimize harm to healthy cells, and combat cancer recurrence. To design advanced drug delivery vehicle with these character, in the present manuscript, we have designed a self-healing and injectable hybrid hydrogel through synergistically interacting metal organic framework, CuBTC with the poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). This hybrid hydrogel acts as a localized drug delivery system and was used to encapsulate and release the anticancer drug 5-Fluorouracil selectively at the targeted site in response to the physiological pH. The hydrogel was formed through transforming the gaussian coil like matrix of PVA-CuBTC into a three-dimensional network of hydrogel upon the addition of crosslinker; borax. The biocompatible character of the hydrogel was confirmed through cell viability test. The biocompatible hybrid hydrogel then was used to encapsulate and studied for the pH responsive release behavior of the anti-cancer drug, 5-FU. The in vitro cytotoxicity of the drug-loaded hydrogel was evaluated against MCF-7 and HeLa cells. The study confirms that the hybrid hydrogel is effective for targeted and sustained release of anticancer drugs at cancer sites.

Abstract
Much effort has been devoted to improving treatment efficiency for osteosarcoma (OS). However, most current approaches result in poor therapeutic responses, thus indicating the need for the development of other therapeutic options. This study developed a multifunctional nanoparticle, PDA-MOF-E-M, an aggregation of OS targeting, programmed death targeting, and near-infrared (NIR)-aided targeting. At the same time, a multifunctional nanoparticle that utilises Fe-MOFs to create a cellular iron-rich environment and erastin as a ferroptosis inducer while ensuring targeted delivery to OS cells through cell membrane encapsulation is presented. The combination of PDA-MOF-E-M and PTT increased intracellular ROS and LPO levels and induced ferroptosis-related protein expression. A PDA-based PTT combined with erastin showed significant synergistic therapeutic improvement in the anti-tumour efficiency of the nanoparticle in vitro and vivo. The multifunctional nanoparticle efficiently prevents the osteoclasia progression of OS xenograft bone tumors in vivo. Finally, this study provides guidance and a point of reference for clinical approaches to treating OS.

Abstract
A synergistic therapy agent (STA) with photothermal, photodynamic, chemodynamic, and starvation therapy (PTT, PDT, CDT, and ST) functions was developed. Hollow, mesoporous, and nearly uniform CeO2 nanoparticles (H-CeO2 NPs) were synthesized using a staged shape templating sol-gel protocol. Chlorin e6 (Ce6) was adsorbed onto H-CeO2 NPs, and a thin polydopamine (PDA) layer was formed on Ce6-adsorbed H-CeO2 NPs. Glucose oxidase (GOx) was bound onto PDA-coated Ce6-adsorbed H-CeO2 NPs to obtain the targeted STA (H-CeO2@Ce6@PDA@GOx NPs). A reversible photothermal conversion behavior with the temperature elevations up to 34 °C was observed by NIR laser irradiation at 808 nm. A cascade enzyme system based on immobilized GOx and intrinsic catalase-like activity of H-CeO2 NPs was rendered on STA for enhancing the effectiveness of PDT by elevation of ROS generation and alleviation of hypoxia in a tumor microenvironment. Glucose-mediated generation of highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) was evaluated for CDT. The effectiveness of PDT on glioblastoma T98G cells was markedly enhanced by O2 generation started by the decomposition of glucose. A similar increase in cell death was also observed when ST and CDT functions were enhanced by photothermal action. The viability of T98G cells decreased to 10.6% by in vitro synergistic action including ST, CDT, PDT, and PTT without using any antitumor agent.

Abstract
Disulfiram (DSF) degrades to diethyldithiocarbamate (DTC) in vivo and coordinates with copper ions to form CuET, which has higher antitumor activity. In this study, DSF@CuMSN-PDA nanoparticles were prepared using mesoporous silica with copper ions, DSF as a carrier, and polydopamine (PDA) as a gate system. The nanoparticles selectively released CuET into tumor tissue by taking advantage of the tumor microenvironment, where PDA could be degraded. The release ratio reached 79.17% at pH 5.0, indicating pH-responsive drug release from the nanoparticles. The PDA-gated system provided the nanoparticles with unique photothermal conversion performance and significantly improved antitumor efficiency. In vivo, antitumor experiments showed that the designed DSF@CuMSN-PDA nanoparticles combined with near-infrared light (808 nm, 1 W/cm2) irradiation effectively inhibited tumor growth in HCT116 cells by harnessing the combined potential of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy; a synergistic effect was achieved. Taken together, these results suggest that the designed DSF@CuMSN-PDA construct can be employed as a promising candidate for combined chemo-photothermal therapy.

Abstract
Combination therapy with the synergistic effect is an effective way in cancer chemotherapy. Herein, an antiangiogenic sorafenib (SOR) and hypoxia-activated prodrug tirapazamine (TPZ)-coencapsulated liposome (LipTPZ/SOR) is prepared for chemotherapy of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). SOR is a multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor that can inhibit tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis. The antiangiogenesis effect of SOR can reduce oxygen supply and aggravate tumor hypoxia, which is able to activate hypoxia-sensitive prodrug TPZ, exhibiting the synergistic antitumor effect. LipTPZ/SOR at different molar ratios of TPZ and SOR can significantly inhibit the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. The mole ratio of TPZ and SOR was optimized to 2:1, which exhibited the best synergetic antitumor effect. The synergistic antitumor mechanism of SOR and TPZ was also investigated in vivo. After treated with SOR, the number of vessels was decreased, and the degree of hypoxia was aggravated in tumor tissues. What is more, in the presence of SOR, TPZ could be activated to inhibit tumor growth. The combination of TPZ and SOR exhibited an excellent synergistic antitumor effect. This research not only provides an innovative strategy to aggravate tumor hypoxia to promote TPZ activation but also paints a blueprint about a new nanochemotherapy regimen for the synergistic chemotherapy of HCC, which has excellent biosafety and bright clinical application prospects.

Abstract
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, and the development of new diagnostic and treatment methods is crucial. Manganese-based nanomaterials (MnNMs) have emerged as a focal point in the field of cancer diagnosis and treatment due to their multifunctional properties. These nanomaterials have been extensively explored as contrast agents for various imaging technologies such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), photoacoustic imaging (PAI), and near-infrared fluorescence imaging (NIR-FL). The use of these nanomaterials has significantly enhanced the contrast for precise tumor detection and localization. Moreover, MnNMs have shown responsiveness to the tumor microenvironment (TME), enabling innovative approaches to cancer treatment. This review provides an overview of the latest developments of MnNMs and their potential applications in tumor diagnosis and therapy. Finally, potential challenges and prospects of MnNMs in clinical applications are discussed. We believe that this review would serve as a valuable resource for guiding further research on the application of manganese nanomaterials in cancer diagnosis and treatment, addressing the current limitations, and proposing future research directions.

Abstract
The combination of phototherapy and chemotherapy with superior advantages is a promising strategy for cancer therapy. However, combination therapy is generally regulated by two different wavelengths of light or other stimuli, which results in complex operations and inevitable systemic side effects, even affecting therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we design a signal NIR light-regulated nanoplatform via the self-assembly process of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive prodrug (DTD), human serum albumin (HSA), and IR780 for combined photothermal/photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy. Upon 808 nm laser irradiation, IR780 in nanoparticles generates abundant ROS and a significant photothermal effect to achieve photothermal/photodynamic therapy. Meanwhile, the generating ROS further cleans up the thioketal link to release DOX for chemotherapy. Hence, signal NIR light can effectively control the process of combination therapy. In vivo and in vitro experiment results demonstrate that the multifunctional nanoparticles exhibit excellent antitumor efficacy via the combination of phototherapy and chemotherapy controlled by a signal NIR laser. Overall, the signal NIR light-regulated nanoparticles with combination therapy performance provide a versatile platform for enhancing antitumor efficacy.

Abstract
The inflammatory response is one of the general symptoms that accompany tumorigenesis, the pro-inflammatory factors cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and COX-2-derived prostaglandin-2 (PGE-2) in the inflammatory environment surrounding tumors possess promoting tumor development, metastasis and angiogenesis effects. In addition, the hypoxic environment of tumors severely limits the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy (PDT). In this study, a universal extracellular-intracellular 'on-demand' release nanomedicine DOX@PDA-ICG@MnO2@GN-CEL was developed for the combined fight against malignant tumors using a spatiotemporal controlled gelatin coated polydopamine (PDA@GN) as the carrier and loaded with the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX), the photosensitizer indocyanine green (ICG), the PDT enhancer MnO2and the anti-inflammatory drug celecoxib (CEL) individually. Our results showed that DOX@PDA-ICG@MnO2@GN-CEL could release CEL extracellularly by matrix metalloproteinase-2 response and inhibit the COX-2/PGE-2 pathway, reduce chemotherapy resistance and attenuate the concurrent inflammation. After entering the tumor cells, the remaining DOX@PDA-ICG@MnO2released DOX, ICG and MnO2intracellularly through PDA acid response. MnO2promoted the degradation of endogenous H2O2to generate oxygen under acidic conditions to alleviate the tumor hypoxic environment, enhance PDT triggered by ICG. PDA and ICG exhibited photothermal therapy synergistically, and DOX exerted chemotherapy with reduced chemotherapy resistance. The dual responsive drug release switch enabled the chemotherapeutic, photothermal, photodynamic and anti-inflammatory drugs precisely acted on different sites of tumor tissues and realized a promising multimodal combination therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has gained significant attention due to its superiority over conventional treatments. In the context of skin cancers and nonmalignant skin diseases, topical application of photosensitizer formulations onto affected skin, followed by illumination, offers distinct advantages. Topical PDT simplifies therapy by providing easy access to the skin, increasing drug concentration within the target area, and confining residual photosensitivity to the treated skin. However, the effectiveness of topical PDT is often hindered by challenges such as limited skin penetration or photosensitizer instability. Additionally, the hypoxic tumor environment poses further limitations. Nanocarriers present a promising solution to address these challenges. AREAS COVERED The objective of this review is to comprehensively explore and highlight the role of various nanocarriers in advancing topical PDT for the treatment of skin diseases. The primary focus is to address the challenges associated with conventional topical PDT approaches and demonstrate how nanotechnology-based strategies can overcome these challenges, thereby improving the overall efficiency and efficacy of PDT. EXPERT OPINION Nanotechnology has revolutionized the field of PDT, offering innovative tools to combat the unfavorable features of photosensitizers and hurdles in PDT. Nanocarriers enhance skin penetration and stability of photosensitizers, provide controlled drug release, reduce needed dose, increase production of reactive oxygen species, while reducing side effects, thereby improving PDT effectiveness.

Abstract
In photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) of cancer, poor performance of nanoagents severely impaired the therapeutic effect of cancer. To solve the problem, we proposed and constructed a novel Mn doped Cu7S4 phothermal nanoagent both in the first near-infrared (NIR-I) and the second near- infrared (NIR-II) windows in this work, which exhibited high photothermal conversion efficiency of 40.3% at 808 nm (NIR-I window) and 33.4% at 1064 nm (NIR-II window), as well as outstanding pH-sensitive catalytic performance (peroxidase-like catalytic activity and Fenton-like catalytic activities). The as-prepared Mn doped Cu7S4 could be used to load chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX) after modified by folic acid. Both in vitro and in vivo studies indicated that it could be used as nanoagent for chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT)/ chemotherapy of cervical carcinoma. This study thus provided an NIR-I/NIR-II/pH responsive nanoagent for potential synergistic therapy of deep-seated tumors.

Abstract
To effectively treat aggressive breast cancer by tumor-activated targetable photothermal chemotherapy, in this work, folate (FA)-modified hybrid polymeric nanoassemblies (HPNs) with a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-detachable capability are developed as vehicles for tumor-targeted co-delivery of IR780, a lipophilic photothermal reagent, and zoledronic acid (ZA), a hydrophilic chemotherapy drug. Through hydrophobic interaction-induced co-assembly, IR780 molecules and ZA/poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) complexes were co-encapsulated into a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)-rich core stabilized by the amphiphilic FA-modified D-α-tocopheryl poly(ethylene glycol) succinate (FA-TPGS) and acidity-sensitive PEG-benzoic imine-octadecane (C18) (PEG-b-C18) conjugates. The developed FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs with high ZA and IR780 payloads not only showed excellent colloidal stability in a serum-containing milieu, but also promoted IR780-based photostability and photothermal conversion efficiency. Furthermore, for FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs under simulated physiological conditions, the premature leakage of IR780 and ZA molecules was remarkably declined. In a mimetic acidic tumor microenvironment, the uptake of FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs by FA receptor-overexpressed 4T1 breast cancer cells was remarkably promoted by PEG detachment combined with FA receptor-mediated endocytosis, thus effectively hindering migration of cancer cells and augmenting the anticancer efficacy of photothermal chemotherapy. Notably, the in vivo studies demonstrated that the FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs largely deposited at 4T1 tumor sites and profoundly suppressed tumor growth and metastasis without severe systemic toxicity upon near infrared (NIR)-triggered IR780-mediated hyperthermia integrated with ZA chemotherapy. This work presents a practical strategy to treat aggressive breast tumors with tumor-triggered targetable photothermal chemotherapy using FA-ZA/IR780@HPNs.

Holmium (III)-doped multifunctional nanotheranostic agent for ultra-high-field magnetic resonance imaging-guided chemo-photothermal tumor therapy. Acta Biomater 2023; 172:454-465. [PMID: 37863345 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.10.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023]
Abstract
Ultra-high-field (UHF) MRI has shown great advantages over low-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Despite being the most commonly used MRI contrast agents, gadolinium chelates perform poorly in high magnetic fields, which significantly weakens their T1 intensity. In comparison, the rare element Holmium (Ho)-based nanoparticles (NPs) have demonstrated great potential as T2-weighted MRI contrast agents in UHF MRI due to their extremely short electron relaxation times (∼ 10-13s). In this study, a multifunctional nanotherapeutic probe was designed for UHF MRI-guided chemotherapy and photothermal therapy. The Ho (III)-doped mesoporous polydopamine (Ho-MPDA, HM) nanosphere was loaded with the chemotherapeutic drug mitoxantrone (MTO) and then coated with 4T1 cell membranes to enhance active targeting delivery to breast cancer. The prepared nanotherapeutic probe MTO@HMM@4T1 (HMM@T) exhibited good biocompatibility, high drug-loading capability and great potential as Ho (III)-based UHF MRI contrast agents. Moreover, the biodegradation of HMM@T in response to the intratumor pH and glutathione (GSH) promotes MTO release. Near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation of HM induced photothermal therapy and further enhanced drug release. Consequently, HMM@T effectively acted as an MRI-guided tumor-targeting chemo-photothermal therapy against 4T1 breast cancer. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Ultra-high-field (UHF) MRI has shown great advantages over low-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Although gadolinium chelates are the most commonly used MRI contrast agents in clinical practice, they exhibit a significantly decreased T1 relaxivity at UHF. Holmium exhibits outstanding UHF magnetic resonance capabilities in comparison with gadolinium chelates currently used in clinic. Herein, a theranostic nanodrug (HMM@T) was designed for UHF MRI-guided chemo-photothermal therapy. The nanodrug possessed remarkable UHF T2 MRI properties (r2 = 152.13 mM-1s-1) and high drug loading capability of 18.4 %. The biodegradation of HMM@T NPs under triple stimulations of pH, GSH, and NIR led to an efficient release of MTO in tumor microenvironment. Our results revealed the potential of a novel UHF MRI-guided multifunctional nanosystem in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Tumor drug resistance caused by the tumor microenvironment is an extremely difficult problem for researchers to solve. Nanoplatforms that integrate diagnosis and treatment have great advantages in tumor treatment, but the design and synthesis of simple and efficient nanoplatforms still face tremendous challenges. In this study, a novel Mn/Au@ir820/GA-CD133 nanoprobe was developed. The manganese dioxide/gold particles were prepared by coprecipitation/assembly, chemically coupled with CD133 antibody, and finally loaded with the photosensitive drug IR820 and the heat shock protein inhibitor Ganetespib. The nanoprobe demonstrated good tumor-targeting ability, increased the level of singlet oxygen produced from laser irradiation by effectively alleviating tumor hypoxia, and decreased the threshold of heat tolerance by downregulating the expression of HSP90 in tumor tissues. This nanoprobe successfully inhibited the growth and progression of tumor tissues in a tumor-bearing mouse model by improving the effectiveness of photodynamic and low-temperature photothermal combination therapy.

Abstract
Designing mitochondria-targeting phototheranostic agents (PTAs), which can simultaneously possess exceptional and balanced type-I photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) performance, still remains challenging. Herein, benzene, furan, and thiophene were utilized as π bridges to develop multifunctional PTAs. STB with thiophene as a π bridge, in particular, benefiting from stronger donor-accepter (D-A) interactions, reduced the singlet-triplet energy gap (ΔES1-T1), allowed more free intramolecular rotation, and exhibited outstanding near-infrared (NIR) emission, effective type-I reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and relatively high photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) of 51.9%. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that positive-charged STB not only can actively target the mitochondria of tumor cells but also displayed strong antitumor effects and excellent in vivo imaging ability. This work subtly established a win-win strategy by π bridge engineering, breaking the barrier of making a balance between ROS generation and photothermal conversion, boosting a dual enhancement of PDT and PTT performance, and stimulating the development of multimodal imaging-guided precise cancer phototherapy.

Abstract
Multimodal therapy requires effective drug carriers that can deliver multiple drugs to specific locations in a controlled manner. Here, the study presents a novel nanoplatform constructed using zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), a nanoscale metal-organic framework nucleated under the mediation of silk fibroin (SF). The nanoplatform is modified with the newly discovered MCF-7 breast tumor-targeting peptide, AREYGTRFSLIGGYR (AR peptide). Indocyanine green (ICG) and doxorubicin (DOX) are loaded onto the nanoplatform with high drug encapsulation efficiency (>95%). ICG enables the resultant nanoparticles (NPs), called AR-ZS/ID-P, to release reactive oxygen species for photodynamic therapy (PDT) and heat for photothermal therapy (PTT) under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, promoting NIR fluorescence and thermal imaging to guide DOX-induced chemotherapy. Additionally, the controlled release of both ICG and DOX at acidic tumor conditions due to the dissolution of ZIF-8 provides a drug-targeting mechanism in addition to the AR peptide. When intravenously injected, AR-ZS/ID-P NPs specifically target breast tumors and exhibit higher anticancer efficacy than other groups through ICG-enabled PDT and PTT and DOX-derived chemotherapy, without inducing side effects. The results demonstrate that AR-ZS/ID-P NPs are a promising multimodal theranostic nanoplatform with maximal therapeutic efficacy and minimal side effects for targeted and controllable drug delivery.

Abstract
In developing countries, the incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) is on the rise. The combination of programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) siRNA (siPD-L1) and mild photothermal therapy (PTT) is a promising strategy for CRC treatment. In this study, dopamine-modified polyethylenimine (PEI) was prepared to fabricate an IR780 and siPD-L1 codelivery lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticle (lip@PSD-siP) for the photothermal immunotherapy of CRC. The modification of dopamine can significantly reduce the cytotoxicity of PEI. lip@PSD-siP can be effectively taken up by CT26 cells and successfully escaped from lysosomes after entering the cells for 4 h. After CT26 cells were transfected with lip@PSD-siP, the PD-L1 positive cell rate decreased by 82.4%, and its PD-L1 knockdown effect was significantly stronger than the positive control Lipo3000-siP. In vivo studies showed that lip@PSD-siP-mediated mild PTT and efficient PD-L1 knockdown exhibited primary and distal tumor inhibition, metastasis delay, and rechallenged tumor inhibition. The treatment with lip@PSD-siP significantly promoted the maturation of dendritic cells in lymph nodes. The amount of T cell infiltration in the tumor tissues increased significantly, and the frequency of CD8+ T cells and CD4+ T cells was significantly higher than that of other groups. The percentage of immunosuppressive regulatory cells (Tregs) in the tumor tissue on the treatment side decreased by 88% compared to the PBS group, and the proportion of CD8+CD69+ T cells in the distal tumor tissue was 2.8 times that of the PBS group. The memory T cells of mice in the long-term antitumor model were analyzed. The results showed that after treatment with lip@PSD-siP, the frequency of effector memory T cells (Tem cells) significantly increased, suggesting the formation of immune memory.

Abstract
Growing evidence suggests that the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs) is a major challenge in current tumor treatments, especially the transition from non-CSCs to differentiation of CSCs for evading conventional therapies and driving metastasis. Here we propose a therapeutic strategy of synergistic differentiation therapy and phototherapy to induce differentiation of CSCs into mature tumor cells by differentiation inducers and synergistic elimination of them and normal cancer cells through phototherapy. In this work, we synthesized a biomimetic nanoplatform loaded with IR-780 and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) via biomineralization. This method can integrate aluminum ions into small-sized protein carriers to form nanoclusters, which undergo responsive degradation under acidic conditions and facilitate deep tumor penetration. With the help of CSC differentiation induced by ATRA, IR-780 inhibited the self-renewal of CSCs and cancer progression by generating hyperthermia and reactive oxygen species in a synergistic manner. Furthermore, ATRA can boost immunogenic cell death induced by phototherapy, thereby strongly causing a systemic anti-tumor immune response and efficiently eliminating CSCs and tumor cells. Taken together, this dual strategy represents a new paradigm of targeted eradication of CSCs and tumors by inducing CSC differentiation, improving photothermal therapy/photodynamic therapy and enhancing antitumor immunity.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), with its advantages of high targeting, minimally invasive, and low toxicity side effects, has been widely used in the clinical therapy of various tumors, especially superficial tumors. However, the tumor microenvironment (TME) presents hypoxia due to the low oxygen (O2 ) supply caused by abnormal vascularization in neoplastic tissues and high O2 consumption induced by the rapid proliferation of tumor cells. The efficacy of oxygen-consumping PDT can be hampered by a hypoxic TME. To address this problem, researchers have been developing advanced nanoplatforms and strategies to enhance the therapeutic effect of PDT in tumor treatment. This review summarizes recent advanced PDT therapeutic strategies to against the hypoxic TME, thus enhancing PDT efficacy, including increasing O2 content in TME through delivering O2 to the tumors and in situ generations of O2 ; decreasing the O2 consumption during PDT by design of type I photosensitizers. Moreover, recent synergistically combined therapy of PDT and other therapeutic methods such as chemotherapy, photothermal therapy, immunotherapy, and gas therapy is accounted for by addressing the challenging problems of mono PDT in hypoxic environments, including tumor resistance, proliferation, and metastasis. Finally, perspectives of the opportunities and challenges of PDT in future clinical research and translations are provided.

Abstract
Silver sulfide (Ag2S) nanoparticles (NPs) represent one of the most popular inorganic reagents for near-infrared (NIR) photothermal therapy (PTT). However, the extensive biomedical applications of Ag2S NPs are greatly compromised by the hydrophobicity of the NPs prepared in organic solvents, their low photothermal conversion efficiency, certain surface modification-induced damage to their intrinsic properties and short circulation time. To develop a facile yet efficient green approach to overcome these shortcomings for improved properties and performance of Ag2S NPs, we report herein the construction of Ag2S@polydopamine (PDA) nanohybrids via a "one-pot" organic-inorganic hybridization strategy, which produces uniform Ag2S@PDA nanohybrids with well-modulated sizes in the range of 100-300 nm via the self-polymerization of dopamine (DA) and subsequent synergistic assembly of PDA with Ag2S NPs in a three-phase mixed medium containing water, ethanol and trimethylbenzene (TMB). Integration of dual photothermal moieties, i.e., Ag2S and PDA at a molecular level, endows Ag2S@PDA nanohybrids with synergistically enhanced NIR photothermal properties that are much better than those of either PDA or Ag2S NPs due to calculated combination indexes (CIs) of 0.3-0.7 between Ag2S NPs and PDA based on a modified Chou-Talalay method. Therefore, this study not only developed a facile "one-pot" green approach toward producing uniform Ag2S@PDA nanohybrids with well-modulated dimensions, but also revealed an unprecedented synergistic mechanism for organic/inorganic nanohybrids that is based on dual photothermal moieties providing enhanced near-infrared photothermal performance.

Abstract
Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) have attracted great interest in various biomedical research fields due to their superior optical and plasmonic properties. In the present study, we synthesized bovine serum albumin (BSA)-coated CuNPs (BSA-CuNPs) by adopting the aqueous reduction method in 2-step procedures. The prepared BSA-CuNPs were characterized in vitro for their physical characteristics and photothermal activity. The successful synthesis of BSA-CuNPs was verified through transmission electron microscopy (TEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) light spectroscopy. The prepared BSA-CuNPs revealed a great light-to-heat conversion capacity and good photothermal stability. Notably, accompanied by laser irradiation, the BSA-CuNPs elicited significantly higher cytotoxicity on tumor cells than the control group. Preliminary animal studies to determine the biosafety and pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles exhibited that the BSA-CuNPs have a maximum tolerable dose (MTD) of 16 mgCu/kg and a relatively long plasma half-life of 1.98 h. Overall, our findings demonstrated that BSA-CuNPs might be a potential photothermal therapeutic agent for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer, with ineffective treatment and poor prognosis. It is in great demand to develop a novel theranostic strategy for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment of TNBC. In the present study, one nanoplatform (HA-ICG-Fe-PDA), endowed with multimodal imaging-guided chemodynamic/photodynamic/photothermal (CDT/PDT/PTT) synergistic therapy capacity toward TNBC, was innovatively constructed. The nanoplatform was prepared by covalently conjugating ICG-decorated hyaluronic acid (HA) on Fe3+-chelated polydopamine (PDA). HA facilitated the targeting and accumulating of the nanoplatform in tumor tissue and cells of TNBC, thus producing enhanced magnetic resonance signal. Upon entering into TNBC cells, the intracellular hyaluronidase-catalyzed cleavage of HA-ICG-Fe-PDA activated the prequenched near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence signal, allowing for the activatable NIR fluorescence imaging. On the other hand, Fe3+ in the nanoplatform could be reduced to reactive Fe2+ in tumor microenvironment, guaranteeing efficient Fenton reaction-mediated CDT. The combination of ICG with Fe-PDA enhanced the NIR absorption of the nanoplatform so that considerable PTT/PDT and photothermal imaging were achieved under 808 nm laser irradiation. In vitro and in vivo experiments have verified that the proposed nanoplatform integrates the potential of TNBC-targeting, precise NIR fluorescence/magnetic resonance/photothermal trimodal imaging, efficient treatment via synergistic CDT/PDT/PTT, as well as excellent biocompatibility. Therefore, this multifunctional nanoplatform provides a simple and versatile strategy for imaging-guided theranostics of TNBC.

Abstract
Magnetic nanocarriers are nano-platforms that integrate multiple moieties based on magnetic nanoparticles for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. In recent years, they have become an advanced platform for tumor treatment due to their wide application in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), biocatalysis, magneto-thermal therapy (MHT), and photoresponsive therapy. Drugs loaded into magnetic nanocarriers can efficiently be directed to targeted areas by precisely reshaping their structural properties. Magnetic nanocarriers allow us to track the location of the therapeutic agent, continuously control the therapeutic process and eventually assess the efficacy of the treatment. They are typically used in synergistic therapeutic applications to achieve precise and effective tumor treatment. Here we review their latest applications in tumor treatment, including stimuli-responsive drug delivery, MHT, photoresponsive therapy, immunotherapy, gene therapy, and synergistic therapy. We consider reducing toxicity, improving antitumor efficacy, and the targeting accuracy of magnetic nanocarriers. The challenges of their clinical translation and prospects in cancer therapy are also discussed.

Abstract
Because of the formation of specific antibodies to poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) leading to life-threatening side effects, there is an increasing need to develop alternatives to treatments and diagnostic methods based on PEGylated copolymers. Block copolymers comprising a poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) segment can be used for the design of such vectors without any PEG block. As an example, a poly(acrylic acid)-block-poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PAA-b-PVP) copolymer with controlled composition and molar mass is synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Mixing this copolymer with lanthanide cations (Gd3+, Eu3+, Y3+) leads to the formation of hybrid polyion complexes with increased stability, preventing the lanthanide cytotoxicity and in vitro cell penetration. These new nanocarriers exhibit enhanced T1 MRI contrast, when intravenously administered into mice. No leaching of gadolinium ions is detected from such hybrid complexes.

Abstract
Introduction Drug delivery systems (DDSs) based on liposomes are potential tools to minimize the side effects and substantially enhance the therapeutic efficacy of chemotherapy. However, it is challenging to achieve biosafe, accurate, and efficient cancer therapy of liposomes with single function or single mechanism. To solve this problem, we designed a multifunctional and multimechanism nanoplatform based on polydopamine (PDA)-coated liposomes for accurate and efficient combinatorial cancer therapy of chemotherapy and laser-induced PDT/PTT. Methods ICG and DOX were co-incorporated in polyethylene glycol modified liposomes, which were further coated with PDA by a facile two-step method to construct PDA-liposome nanoparticles (PDA@Lipo/DOX/ICG). The safety of nanocarriers was investigated on normal HEK-293 cells, and the cellular uptake, intracellular ROS production capacity, and combinatorial treatment effect of the nanoparticles were assessed on human breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231. In vivo biodistribution, thermal imaging, biosafety assessment, and combination therapy effects were estimated based on MDA-MB-231 subcutaneous tumor model. Results Compared with DOX·HCl and Lipo/DOX/ICG, PDA@Lipo/DOX/ICG showed higher toxicity on MDA-MB-231 cells. After endocytosis by target cells, PDA@Lipo/DOX/ICG produced a large amount of ROS for PDT by 808 nm laser irradiation, and the cell inhibition rate of combination therapy reached up to 80.4%. After the tail vein injection (DOX equivalent of 2.5 mg/kg) in mice bearing MDA-MB-231 tumors, PDA@Lipo/DOX/ICG significantly accumulated at the tumor site at 24 h post injection. After 808 nm laser irradiation (1.0 W/cm2, 2 min) at this timepoint, PDA@Lipo/DOX/ICG efficiently suppressed the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 cell and even thoroughly ablated tumors. Negligible cardiotoxicity and no treatment-induced side effects were observed. Conclusion PDA@Lipo/DOX/ICG is a multifunctional nanoplatform based on PDA-coated liposomes for accurate and efficient combinatorial cancer therapy of chemotherapy and laser-induced PDT/PTT.

Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 222:113117. [PMID: 36586238 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.113117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Revised: 12/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has many exceptional advantages in cancer treatment, such as minor trauma, low toxicity side effects, and strong adaptability, effectively overcoming some obstacles of traditional therapy and providing more revolutionary opportunities for curing cancer. Chlorin e6 (Ce6) exhibits excellent singlet oxygen generation and conversion efficiency under near-infrared laser irradiation and is a promising PDT photosensitizer. However, its hydrophobicity, short half-life and lack of tumor specificity limit its in vivo anticancer application. Therefore, this work has designed and prepared a multifunctional nanoplatform, Ce6/FeOOH@BSA, to efficiently deliver Ce6. Nanoparticles exhibit excellent dispersion and stability in deionized water, PBS and DMEM, and the blood half-life is 3.98 ± 0.31 h. The nanoplatform demonstrates effective tumor targeting and accumulation, overcoming the obstacles of the biological application of Ce6. Iron ions can exert a chemodynamic therapy (CDT) effect by reacting with overexpressed H2O2 in the tumor to generate toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH). Moreover, FeOOH nanoparticles effectively promote glutathione (GSH) consumption in tumor cells, which is conducive to accumulating reactive oxygen species (ROS). In brief, Ce6/FeOOH@BSA nanoparticles realize the targeted delivery of Ce6 and mediate synergistic PDT/CDT against tumors, broadening the biomedical application of nanomaterials.

Abstract
Near infrared (NIR) fluorescent organic molecules as fluorescent probes accurately guide photothermal therapy as a potential antitumor method. However, the aggregation and quenching of organic fluorescent molecules and poor tissue permeability greatly limit their therapeutic effect and clinical transformation. In this paper, with a D-A-D structure as the molecular skeleton, cyclopentadithiophene (CPDT) as the donor (D), diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) as the acceptor (A), and long-chain isooctane as the shielding unit, organic fluorescent small molecules with a strong absorption band and bright NIR-II emission were synthesized. Then, tetraphenylethylene (TPE) molecules with typical AIE structure characteristics were introduced on both sides of the organic fluorescent small molecules, and an organic small molecular fluorophore (TDA) with AIE characteristics and the photothermal effect was designed. Through a series of experimental characterization techniques, it is proved that TDA NPs have good biocompatibility and tissue permeability, and can accurately locate the tumor location through NIR-II fluorescence imaging to achieve local photothermal treatment of tumors.

Abstract
Cancer is a complex disease associated with a combination of abnormal physiological process and exhibiting dysfunctions in multiple systems. To provide effective treatment and diagnosis for cancer, current treatment strategies simultaneously focus on various tumor targets. Based on the rapid development of nanotechnology, nanocarriers have been shown to exhibit excellent potential for cancer therapy. Compared with nanoparticles with single functions, multifunctional nanoparticles are believed to be more aggressive and potent in the context of tumor targeting. However, the development of multifunctional nanoparticles is not simply an upgraded version of the original function, but involves a sophisticated system with a proper backbone, optimized modification sites, simple preparation method, and efficient function integration. Despite this, many well-designed multifunctional nanoparticles with promising therapeutic potential have emerged recently. Here, to give a detailed understanding and analyzation of the currently developed multifunctional nanoparticles, their platform structures with organic or inorganic backbones were systemically generalized. We emphasized on the functionalization and modification strategies, which provide additional functions to the nanoparticle. We also discussed the application combination strategies that were involved in the development of nanoformulations with functional crosstalk. This review thus provides an overview of the construction strategies and application advances of multifunctional nanoparticles.

Abstract
Manganese (Mn), a nutrient inorganic trace element, is necessary for a variety of physiological processes of animal body due to their important roles in oxidative regulation effects and other aspects of activities. Moreover, manganese ion (Mn2+) has widely reported to be crucial for the regulations of different immunological responses, thus showing promising application as potential adjuvants and immunotherapeutics. Taking the advantages of Mn-based biological and immunological activities, Manganese dioxide nanoparticles (MnO2 NPs) are a new type of inorganic nanomaterials with numerous advantages, including simple preparation, low cost, environmental friendliness, low toxicity, biodegradable metabolism and high bioavailability. MnO2 NPs, as a kind of drug carrier, have also shown the ability to catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce oxygen (O2) under acidic conditions, which can enhance the efficacy of radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other therapeutics for tumor treatment by remodeling the tumor microenvironment. More importantly, MnO2 NPs also play important roles in immune regulations both in innate and adaptive immunity. In this review, we summarize the biological activities of Manganese, followed by the introduction for the biological and medical functions and mechanisms of MnO2 NPs. What's more, we emphatically discussed the immunological regulation effects and mechanisms of MnO2 NPs, as well as their potentials to serve as adjuvants and immunomodulators, which might benefit the development of novel vaccines and immunotherapies for more effective disease control.

Abstract
The combined use of photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) could circumvent the drawbacks of each individual therapeutic strategy, resulting in an enhanced antitumor effect. However, the lack of highly effective photo-agents that are irradiation-safe in the biologically transparent window hinder the advancement of phototherapy clinically. Hence, in this study, a charge separation engineering strategy was adopted to fabricate a nanoplatform with heterojunctions, namely, in situ TiO2-loaded MXene (Ti3C2/TiO2 heterojunctions). This nanoplatform exhibited reduced bandgap (1.68 eV), enhanced NIR-II photothermal conversion efficiency (44.98%), and extended absorption edge compared to pristine TiO2 for enhanced photodynamic effect. More importantly, the proliferation of tumor cells could be efficiently inhibited at a 5 mm chicken breast depth after 1064 nm laser irradiation, and the intracellular ROS production significantly increased under 660 nm or even 1064 nm laser irradiation with heterojunctions (HJs) compared with that of TiO2. Moreover, the in vivo data further confirmed that the as-prepared heterojunctions could efficiently eradicate tumors efficiently via improved photothermal effect with NIR-II laser irradiation and upregulated ROS production. Collectively, the reported HJs strategy provides an opportunity for the success of combinational PTT and PDT therapy in tumor treatment.

Abstract
Near-infrared-II (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) light-triggered photothermal therapy (PTT) has been regarded as a promising candidate for cancer treatment, but PTT alone often fails to achieve satisfactory curative outcomes. Hollow nanoplatforms prove to be attractive in the biomedical field owing to the merits including good biocompatibility, intrinsic physical-chemical nature and unique hollow structures, etc. On one hand, hollow nanoplatforms themselves can be NIR-II photothermal agents (PTAs), the cavities of which are able to carry diverse therapeutic units to realize multi-modal therapies. On the other hand, NIR-II PTAs are capable of decorating on the surface to combine with the functions of components encapsulated inside the hollow nanoplatforms for synergistic cancer treatment. Notably, PTAs generally can serve as good photoacoustic imaging (PAI) contrast agents (CAs), which means such kind of hollow nanoplatforms are also expected to be multifunctional all-in-one nanotheranostics. In this review, the recent advances of NIR-II hollow nanoplatforms for single-modal PTT, dual-modal PTT/photodynamic therapy (PDT), PTT/chemotherapy, PTT/catalytic therapy and PTT/gas therapy as well as multi-modal PTT/chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/chemotherapy, PTT/chemo/gene therapy and PTT/PDT/CDT/starvation therapy (ST)/immunotherapy are summarized for the first time. Before these, the typical synthetic strategies for hollow structures are presented, and lastly, potential challenges and perspectives related to these novel paradigms for future research and clinical translation are discussed.

Abstract
Fe-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be used for chemodynamic therapy (CDT) for tumors due to their unique Fenton-like effects and porous and biodegradable nature. The adsorption and transport of small molecule drugs by their structure has attracted much attention. Herein, MnO2@NH2-MIL101(Fe)@Ce6-F127 nanoparticles (MNMCF NPs) were synthesized using a facile solvothermal strategy. The small molecule photosensitizer Ce6 was adsorbed by MOFs to improve the biocompatibility of Ce6 and give it high bioavailability when injected intravenously. When the MNMCF NPs reached the tumor site, Fe-based MOFs exhibited Fenton-like properties, producing ˙OH and showing CDT effects. MnO2 could specifically respond to produce O2 in a tumor microenvironment, thereby improving the tumor hypoxia state and enhancing the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) by Ce6. Both the in vitro and in vivo experiments showed that the MNMCF-guided CDT/PDT combination therapy could effectively ablate tumors without the drawbacks of poor tolerability and potential long-term side effects. Therefore, the prepared MNMCF NPs can be used as promising candidates for synergistic CDT/PDT tumor therapy.

Abstract
AbstractDue to the urgent demand for more anti-cancer methods, the new applications of metal ions in cancer have attracted increasing attention. Especially the three kinds of the new mode of cell death, including ferroptosis, calcicoptosis, and cuproptosis, are of great concern. Meanwhile, many metal ions have been found to induce cell death through different approaches, such as interfering with osmotic pressure, triggering biocatalysis, activating immune pathways, and generating the prooxidant effect. Therefore, varieties of new strategies based on the above approaches have been studied and applied for anti-cancer applications. Moreover, many contrast agents based on metal ions have gradually become the core components of the bioimaging technologies, such as MRI, CT, and fluorescence imaging, which exhibit guiding significance for cancer diagnosis. Besides, the new nano-theranostic platforms based on metal ions have experimentally shown efficient response to endogenous and exogenous stimuli, which realizes simultaneous cancer therapy and diagnosis through a more controlled nano-system. However, most metal-based agents have still been in the early stages, and controlled clinical trials are necessary to confirm or not the current expectations. This article will focus on these new explorations based on metal ions, hoping to provide some theoretical support for more anti-cancer ideas.

Abstract
Light-mediated nanotherapeutics have recently emerged as promising strategies to precisely control the activation of therapeutic reagents and imaging probe both in vitro and in vivo, largely ascribed to their unique properties, including minimally invasive capabilities and high spatiotemporal resolution. Nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (NMOFs), a new family of hybrid materials consisting of metal attachment sites and bridging ligands, have been explored as a new platform for enhanced cancer diagnosis and therapy due to their tunable size, modifiable surface, good biocompatibility, high agent loading and, most significantly, their ability to be preferentially deposited in tumors through enhanced permeability and retention (EPR). Especially the light-driven NMOF-based therapeutic platform, which not only allow for increased laser penetration depth and enhanced targeting, but also enable imaging-guided or combined treatments. This review provides up-to-date developments of NMOF-based therapeutic platforms for cancer treatment with emphasis on light-triggered therapeutic strategies and introduces their advances in cancer diagnosis and therapy in recent years.

Abstract
Theranostic nanoplatforms integrating diagnostic and therapeutic functions have received considerable attention in the past decade. Among them, hollow manganese (Mn)-based nanoplatforms are superior since they combine the advantages of hollow structures and the intrinsic theranostic features of Mn2+. Specifically, the hollow cavity can encapsulate a variety of small-molecule drugs, such as chemotherapeutic agents, photosensitizers and photothermal agents, for chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), respectively. After degradation in the tumor microenvironment (TME), the released Mn2+ is able to act simultaneously as a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast agent (CA) and as a Fenton-like agent for chemodynamic therapy (CDT). More importantly, synergistic treatment outcomes can be realized by reasonable and optimized design of the hollow nanosystems. This review summarizes various Mn-based hollow nanoplatforms, including hollow MnxOy, hollow matrix-supported MnxOy, hollow Mn-doped nanoparticles, hollow Mn complex-based nanoparticles, hollow Mn-cobalt (Co)-based nanoparticles, and hollow Mn-iron (Fe)-based nanoparticles, for MR imaging-guided cancer therapies. Finally, we discuss the potential obstacles and perspectives of these hollow Mn-based nanotheranostics for translational applications.

Abstract
A novel nanoplatform that supports multimodal imaging has been designed for deep tumor therapy. In this study, Bi2Se3@Cu2-xSe heterojunction nanocomposites with tunable spectral absorption, effective electron-hole separation and high photothermal conversion efficiency were prepared for the combination therapy of phototherapy (PT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and radiotherapy (RT). By adjusting the doping ratio, the heterojunction nanoparticles show obvious tunable ability of local surface plasmon resonance and the ability to promote electron-hole separation with significantly enhanced reactive oxygen species production capacity. The band structure and charge density difference calculated by density functional theory further reveal that the change of band gap and the decrease of free carriers can regulate the spectral absorption of nanomaterials and promote electron-hole separation. In addition, the photothermal conversion properties of low carrier density semiconductors are related to their inherent deep level defects. The formation of heterojunctions making the Se atoms deviate from the Bi2Se3 lattice, resulting in more deep level defects and stronger photothermal conversion properties. Meanwhile, this nanoplatform presented features similar to catalase activities and glutathione (GSH) consumption characteristics, which was capable of effectively alleviate the tumor-specific hypoxia environment to enhance the efficacy of O2-dependent photodynamic therapy (PDT) and radiotherapy (RT) and depletion GSH to prevent the reduction of therapeutic efficacy due to the clearance of reactive oxygen species. In addition to therapeutic enhancement, heterojunction nanomaterials have excellent nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), infrared thermal imaging (IR) and computed tomography (CT) properties due to their significant paramagnetism and excellent photothermal conversion and X-ray attenuation capacities. In conclusion, our findings provide a new strategy for designing multi-function and efficient nanoplatform to treat tumor.

Abstract
Phototherapy, such as photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), refers to the therapeutic strategy using a visible or near-infrared (NIR) laser to generate free radicals or heat for noninvasive and localized tumor treatment. However, limited by the low photoconversion efficiency of therapeutic agents, a single treatment method can hardly lead to complete tumor ablation, even when enhancing the power density of the laser and/or prolonging the irradiation duration. In this work, copper ion and ruthenium complex codoped polydopamine nanoparticles (Cu(II)/LRu/PDA NPs) are designed for PDT/PTT dual-mode therapy. The doped LRu in the NPs can generate reactive oxygen species under visible laser irradiation and enable PDT. Because of the strong absorption in the NIR region, PDA can not only generate heat for PTT under irradiation but also be used for photoacoustic tomography (PAT) imaging. Meanwhile, the doping of Cu(II) in the NPs through the coordination with PDA facilitates T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Thus, MR/PAT imaging-guided PDT/PTT dual-mode therapy is achieved. The in vivo experiments indicate that the Cu(II)/LRu/PDA NPs can accumulate in HeLa tumors with a retention rate up to 8.34%ID/g. MR/PAT imaging can clearly identify the location and boundary of the tumors, permitting precise guidance for phototherapy. Under the combined effect of PDT and PTT, a complete ablation of HeLa tumors is achieved. The current work provides an alternative nanoplatform for performing PDT/PTT dual-mode therapy, which can be further guided by MR/PAT imaging.

Abstract
Improvement of antitumor effects relies on the development of biocompatible nanomaterials and combination of various therapies to produce synergistic effects and avoid resistance. In this work, we developed GBD-Fe, a nanoformulation that effectively integrated chemotherapy (CT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), and photothermal therapy (PTT). GBD-Fe used gold nanorods as photothermal agents and encapsulated doxorubicin to amplify Fe3+-guided CDT effects by producing H2O2 and reducing the intracellular glutathione levels. In vitro and in vivo experiments were conducted to demonstrate the enhanced accumulation and antitumor effects of this tripronged therapy under magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guidance. This tripronged approach of CT/CDT/PTT effectively induced tumor cytotoxicity and inhibited tumor growth in tumor-bearing mice and therefore represents a promising strategy to effectively treat tumors.

Abstract
Monomodal cancer therapies are often unsatisfactory, leading to suboptimal treatment effects that result in either an inability to stop growth and metastasis or prevent relapse. Thus, synergistic strategies that combine different therapeutic modalities to improve performance have become the new research trend. In this regard, the integration of photothermal therapy (PTT) with chemodynamic therapy (CDT), especially PTT/CDT in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) biowindow, has been demonstrated to be a highly efficient and relatively safe concept. With the rapid development of nanotechnology, nanoparticles can be designed from specific elements, such as Fe, that are equipped with both PTT and CDT therapeutic functions. In this review, we provide an update on the recent advances in Fe-based nanoplatforms for combined PTT/CDT. The perspectives on further improvement of the curative efficiency are described, highlighting the important scientific obstacles that require resolution in order to reach greater heights of clinical success. We hope this review will inspire the interest of researchers in developing novel Fe-based nanomedicines for multifunctional theranostics.
