Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely studied for biomedical applications due to their excellent properties, such as good biocompatibility, degradability, interlayer ion exchangeability, high loading capacity, pH-responsive release, and large specific surface area. Furthermore, the flexibility in the structural composition and ease of surface modification of LDHs makes it possible to develop specifically functionalized LDHs to meet the needs of different applications. In this review, the recent advances of LDHs for biomedical applications, which include LDH-based drug delivery systems, LDHs for cancer diagnosis and therapy, tissue engineering, coatings, functional membranes, and biosensors, are comprehensively discussed. From these various biomedical research fields, it can be seen that there is great potential and possibility for the use of LDHs in biomedical applications. However, at the same time, it must be recognized that the actual clinical translation of LDHs is still very limited. Therefore, the current limitations of related research on LDHs are discussed by combining limited examples of actual clinical translation with requirements for clinical translation of biomaterials. Finally, an outlook on future research related to LDHs is provided.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 658:100-113. [PMID: 38100967 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.12.042] [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: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 11/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023]
Abstract
The induction of immunogenic ferroptosis in cancer cell is limited by the complex and delicate antioxidant system in the organism. Synergistic induction of oxidative damage and inhibition of the defensive redox system in tumor cells is critical to promote lethal accumulation of lipid peroxides and activate immunogenic death (ICD). To address this challenge, we present a multifunctional and dual-responsive layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheet to enhance immunogenic ferroptosis. The MTX-LDH@MnO2 nanoplatform is constructed by intercalating methotrexate (MTX) into LDH interlayers and electrostatically absorbing biomineralized ovalbumin (OVA)-MnO2 onto the LDH surface. Specifically, the released Mn2+ from the incorporated MnO2 triggers a Fenton-like reaction, leading to reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, while the depletion of reduced glutathione (GSH) further intensifies oxidative stress, resulting in the induction of ferroptosis. MTX is released in response to the acidic environment of tumor cells and inhibits the regeneration of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), modulating the GTP cyclic hydrolase 1 (GCH1)/BH4 axis. MTX disrupts the antioxidant metabolic activity regulated by GCH1/BH4 axis and inhibits ROS consumption, further boosting the ferroptosis effect, which promoted the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and triggered ICD in the tumor. This activation subsequently leads to significant antitumor immune reactions, including DCs maturation, infiltration of CD4+/CD8+ T cells and cytokines release. The redox-controllable nanoplatform demonstrates promising anticancer efficacy in a mouse breast model providing a novel strategy for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Dendritic cell (DC) maturation and antigen presentation are key factors for successful vaccine-based cancer immunotherapy. This study developed manganese-based layered double hydroxide (Mn-LDH) nanoparticles as a self-adjuvanted vaccine carrier that not only promoted DC maturation through synergistically depleting endogenous glutathione (GSH) and activating STING signaling pathway, but also facilitated the delivery of model antigen ovalbumin (OVA) into lymph nodes and subsequent antigen presentation in DCs. Significant therapeutic-prophylactic efficacy of the OVA-loaded Mn-LDH (OVA/Mn-LDH) nanovaccine was determined by the tumor growth inhibition in the mice bearing B16-OVA tumor. Our results showed that the OVA/Mn-LDH nanoparticles could be a potent delivery system for cancer vaccine development without the need of adjuvant. Therefore, the combination of GSH exhaustion and STING pathway activation might be an advisable approach for promoting DC maturation and antigen presentation, finally improving cancer vaccine efficacy.

Abstract
Ferroptosis-triggered immunogenic cell death (ICD) is widely adopted to potentiate the body's antitumor immunity by catalyzing the production of toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the efficacy of ferroptosis and immunotherapy is greatly restricted by intracellular abundant glutathione (GSH) and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, a facile bottom-up method for solvent-free synthesis of ultrathin manganese (Mn)-based layered double hydroxide nanosheets with high loading efficiency for pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon (IFNγ) (IFNγ/uMn-LDHs) is proposed to mutually reinforce the ferroptosis and systemic immunity. The introduction of manganese ions significantly contributes to GSH depletion and hydroxyl radical generation, which can be further enhanced by IFNγ delivery-induced SLC7A11 downregulation. The ICD effect after cell ferroptosis cooperates with the intrinsic immunomodulatory property of IFNγ/uMn-LDHs to facilitate the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) and the priming of T cells. IFNγ secretion from activated CD8+ T cells in turn involves cascade immunogenic ferroptosis, thus constructing a closed-loop therapy. Remarkably, a potent abscopal effect is observed in the growth inhibition of both primary and distant tumors. Overall, the ultrathin Mn-based clay nanoplatform provides a simple approach for mutual regulation between ferroptosis and antitumor immune response, overcoming the obstacles of current cancer immunotherapy.

Tumor microenvironment-activated, immunomodulatory nanosheets loaded with copper(II) and 5-FU for synergistic chemodynamic therapy and chemotherapy. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 653:137-147. [PMID: 37713912 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.09.042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023]
Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME) has a redox state that differs greatly from normal tissues, as characterized by the overexpression of H2O2 and glutathione (GSH). To address the GSH-related restrictions on chemodynamic therapy (CDT) efficacy, we have developed a Cu(II)-based CDT strategy. In this study, a novel organic-inorganic hybrid drug delivery system (LDH/HA/5-FU) was conceived and prepared by the intercalation of 5-FU into the interlayer of copper-aluminum layered double hydroxide (CuAl-LDH) via ion exchange strategy and the adsorption of hyaluronic acid (HA) on the surface of CuAl-LDH. Taking advantage of the pH-degradable property of CuAl-LDH and the CD44-targeting property of HA, the formed LDH/HA/5-FU nanosheets could specifically target tumor cells' overexpressing CD44 receptor, rapidly release Cu(II) and 5-FU in tumor cells, inducing tumor cell apoptosis and cuproptosis, and long-term intracellular GSH depletion and toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) generation could be achieved through the cyclic catalytic reaction of Cu(I)/Cu(II). Meanwhile, peritumoral injection of LDH/HA/5-FU nanosheets might function as an adjuvant to increase the levels of antitumor tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and T cells. In vivo experiments further verified that the intelligently designed LDH/HA/5-FU nanosheets successfully promoted the immune systems, with an excellent inhibition efficacy towards tumors by combining Cu-based CDT and chemotherapy, showing promising potential for solid tumor treatments.

Abstract
The development of multifunctional magnetic nanocomposites as a drug delivery system for cancer therapy is highly desirable in current nanomedicine. Herein, folic acid-bovine serum albumin conjugate (FA-BSA) was modified on nanocomposites by combining quantum-sized Fe3O4 and layered double hydroxide (LDH) to obtain a novel FA-BSA/Fe3O4@LDH for the delivery of the anticancer drug 5-Fluorouracil (5-Fu). The prepared nanocomposites showed good dispersibility, colloidal stability, magnetic property and erythrocyte compatibility. FA-BSA/Fe3O4@LDH/5-Fu showed pH responsiveness, with both the amount and duration of release of FA-BSA/Fe3O4@LDH/5-Fu being significantly higher in pH 5.0 release medium than in pH 7.4 release medium. The cellular experiments implied that no significant cytotoxicity of FA-BSA/Fe3O4@LDH, particularly due to the presence of FA-BSA, which further enhanced the biocompatibility of the nanocomposite. Furthermore, FA-BSA/Fe3O4@LDH/5-Fu could specifically target the 2D HepG2 cells model and 3D hepatoma cell microspheres model in vitro, and efficient internalization through folate receptor-mediated endocytosis, showing excellent anti-cancer cell activity in a concentration-dependent manner. Therefore, the constructed FA-BSA/Fe3O4@LDH was able to provide a potential novel multifunctional nanocomposite for magnetic-targeting drug delivery and pH-responsive release of drugs to enhance the efficiency of cancer therapy.

Abstract
Tissue-engineered poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) scaffolds have been widely used to treat bone defects; however, poor biological activities have always been key challenges for its further application. To address this issue, introducing bioactive drugs or factors is the most commonly used method, but there are often many problems such as high cost, uncontrollable and monotonous drug activity, and poor bioavailability. Here, a drug-free 3D printing PLLA scaffold with a triple-effect combination induced by surface-modified copper-doped layered double hydroxides (Cu-LDHs) is proposed. In the early stage of scaffold implantation, Cu-LDHs exert a photothermal therapy (PTT) effect to generate high temperature to effectively prevent bacterial infection. In the later stage, Cu-LDHs can further have a mild hyperthermia (MHT) effect to stimulate angiogenesis and osteogenic differentiation, demonstrating excellent vascularization and osteogenic activity. More importantly, with the degradation of Cu-LDHs, the released Cu2+ and Mg2+ provide an ion microenvironment effect and further synergize with the MHT effect to stimulate angiogenesis and osteogenic differentiation, thus more effectively promoting the healing of bone tissue. This triple-effect combined scaffold exhibits outstanding antibacterial, osteogenic, and angiogenic activities, as well as the advantages of low cost, convenient procedure, and long-term efficacy, and is expected to provide a promising strategy for clinical repair of bone defects.

Abstract
Single atom nanozymes (SAzymes) are considered as the most hopeful candidates for replacing natural enzymes. In this work, a flow-injection chemiluminescent immunoassay (FI-CLIA) based on a Fenton-like activity single atom cobalt nanozyme (Co SAzyme) was developed for the rapid and sensitive detection of 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) in serum for the first time. Co SAzyme was prepared by an in-situ etching method at room temperature using ZIF-8 metal-organic frameworks (ZIF-8 MOFs). With excellent chemical stability and ultra-high porosity of ZIF-8 MOFs as the core, Co SAzyme presents high Fenton-like activity which can catalyze the decomposition of H2O2 to produce large amounts of superoxide radical anions, thus effectively amplifying the chemiluminescence of the Luminol-H2O2 system. In addition, carboxyl-modified resin beads were used as the substrate to load more antigens due to its advantages of good biocompatibility and large specific surface area. Under optimal conditions, the detection range of 5-Fu was 0.001-1000 ng mL-1 with a limit of detection of 0.29 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3). Furthermore, the immunosensor was successfully applied for the detection of 5-Fu in human serum samples with satisfactory results, displaying the potential application of this strategy for bioanalysis and clinical diagnosis.

[PMID: 36985996 PMCID: PMC10058705 DOI: 10.3390/nano13061102] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Two-dimensional nanomaterials, particularly layered double hydroxides (LDHs), have been widely applied in the biomedical field owing to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, controllable drug release/loading ability, and enhanced cellular permeability. Since the first study analyzing intercalative LDHs in 1999, numerous studies have investigated their biomedical applications, including drug delivery and imaging; recent research has focused on the design and development of multifunctional LDHs. This review summarizes the synthetic strategies and in-vivo and in-vitro therapeutic actions and targeting properties of single-function LDH-based nanohybrids and recently reported (from 2019 to 2023) multifunctional systems developed for drug delivery and/or bio-imaging.

State-of-the-art advancement of surface functionalized layered double hydroxides for cell-specific targeting of therapeutics. Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 314:102869. [PMID: 36933542 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2023.102869] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/07/2023]
Abstract
Over the years, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) hold a specific position in biomedicine due to their tunable chemical composition and appropriate structural properties. However, LDHs lack adequate sensitivity for active targeting because of less active surface area and low mechanical strength in physiological conditions. The exploitation of eco-friendly materials, such as chitosan (CS), for surface engineering of LDHs, whose payloads are transferred only under certain conditions, can help develop stimuli-responsive materials owing to high biosafety and unique mechanical strength. We aim to render a well-oriented scenario toward the latest achievements of a bottom-up technology relying on the surface functionalization of LDHs to fabricate functional formulations with promoted bio-functionality and high encapsulation efficiency for various bioactives. Many efforts have been devoted to critical aspects of LDHs, including systemic biosafety and the suitability for developing multicomponent systems via integration with therapeutic modalities, which are thoroughly discussed herein. In addition, a comprehensive discussion was provided for the recent progress in the emergence of CS-coated LDHs. Finally, the challenges and future perspectives in the fabrication of efficient CS-LDHs in biomedicine are considered, with a special focus on cancer treatment.

[PMID: 36627025 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2022.12.059] [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: 07/03/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Fibrosis is an excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) that may cause severe organ dysfunction. Nitric oxide (NO), a multifunctional gaseous signaling molecule, may inhibit fibrosis, and delivery of NO may serve as a potential antifibrotic strategy. However, major limitations in the application of NO to treat fibrotic diseases include its nonspecificity, short half-life and low availability in fibrotic tissue. Herein, we aimed to develop a stimuli-responsive drug carrier to deliver NO to halt kidney fibrosis. We manufactured a nanoparticle (NP) composed of pH-sensitive poly[2-(diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate (PDPA) polymers to encapsulate a NO donor, a dinitrosyl iron complex (DNIC; [Fe2(μ-SEt)2(NO)4]). The NPs were stable at physiological pH 7.4 but disintegrated at pH 4.0-6.0. The NPs showed significant cytotoxicity to cultured human myofibroblasts and were able to inhibit the activation of myofibroblasts, as indicated by a lower expression level of α-smooth muscle actin and the synthesis of a major ECM component, collagen I, in cultured human myofibroblasts. When given to mice treated with unilateral ureteral ligation/obstruction (UUO) to induce kidney fibrosis, these NPs remained in blood at a stable concentration for as long as 24 h and might enter the fibrotic kidneys to suppress myofibroblast activation and collagen I production, leading to a 70% reduction in the fibrotic area. In summary, our strategy to assemble a NO donor, the iron nitrosyl complex DNIC, into pH-responsive NPs proves effective in treating renal fibrosis and warrants further investigation for its therapeutic potential.

Biomaterials Based on Organic Polymers and Layered Double Hydroxides Nanocomposites: Drug Delivery and Tissue Engineering. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020413.

Abstract
The development of biomaterials has a substantial role in pharmaceutical and medical strategies for the enhancement of life quality. This review work focused on versatile biomaterials based on nanocomposites comprising organic polymers and a class of layered inorganic nanoparticles, aiming for drug delivery (oral, transdermal, and ocular delivery) and tissue engineering (skin and bone therapies). Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are 2D nanomaterials that can intercalate anionic bioactive species between the layers. The layers can hold metal cations that confer intrinsic biological activity to LDHs as well as biocompatibility. The intercalation of bioactive species between the layers allows the formation of drug delivery systems with elevated loading capacity and modified release profiles promoted by ion exchange and/or solubilization. The capacity of tissue integration, antigenicity, and stimulation of collagen formation, among other beneficial characteristics of LDH, have been observed by in vivo assays. The association between the properties of biocompatible polymers and LDH-drug nanohybrids produces multifunctional nanocomposites compatible with living matter. Such nanocomposites are stimuli-responsive, show appropriate mechanical properties, and can be prepared by creative methods that allow a fine-tuning of drug release. They are processed in the end form of films, beads, gels, monoliths etc., to reach orientated therapeutic applications. Several studies attest to the higher performance of polymer/LDH-drug nanocomposite compared to the LDH-drug hybrid or the free drug.

Abstract
The upregulation of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) redox systems inside tumor cells provides a powerful shelter against lipid peroxidation (LPO), impeding ferroptosis-induced antitumor responses. To solve this issue, we report a strategy to block redox systems and enhance ferroptotic cancer cell death based on a layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoplatform (siR/IONs@LDH) co-loaded with ferroptosis agent iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs) and the DHODH inhibitor (siR). siR/IONs@LDH is able to simultaneously release IONs and siR in a pH-responsive manner, efficiently generate toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) via an Fe2+-mediated Fenton reaction, and synergistically induce cancer cell death upon the acceleration of LPO accumulation. In vivo therapeutic evaluations demonstrate that this nanomedicine has excellent performance for tumor growth inhibition without any detectable side effects. This work thus provides a new insight into nanomaterial-mediated tumor ferroptosis therapy.

Abstract
Background Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most aggressive tumors with high metastasis and mortality, which constitutes 15~20% of all breast cancers. Chemotherapy remains main therapeutic option in the treatment of patients with TNBC. Methods We developed reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive galactosylated nanoparticles (DOX@NPs) as an efficiently targeted carrier for doxorubicin (DOX) delivery to inhibit the growth of TNBC in vitro and in vivo. DOX@NPs were composed of polyacrylate galactose and phenylboronic derivatives conjugation. The in vitro cytotoxicity, cellular uptake, cell apoptosis and cycle distribution of tumor cells treated with different formulations were investigated. Meanwhile in vivo biodistribution and antitumor effects were investigated in a 4T1 tumor-bearing mouse model. Results DOX@NPs showed good ROS responsiveness and rapid DOX release in the presence of H2O2. Furthermore, our data suggested that DOX@NPs could effectively trigger tumor cells apoptosis and cycle arrest, efficiently accumulate into tumor sites, and suppress tumor growth without adverse side effects. Conclusion Our results suggested DOX@NP with potent potential as a promising nanocarrier for TNBC therapy, which deserved further investigation for other cancer treatment.

Abstract
With the booming development of nanomedicine, mild photothermal therapy (mPTT, 42-45°C) has exhibited promising potential in tumor therapy. Compared with traditional PTT (>50°C), mPTT has less side effects and better biological effects conducive to tumor treatment, such as loosening the dense structure in tumor tissues, enhancing blood perfusion, and improving the immunosuppressive microenvironment. However, such a relatively low temperature cannot allow mPTT to completely eradicate tumors, and therefore, substantial efforts have been conducted to optimize the application of mPTT in tumor therapy. This review extensively summarizes the latest advances of mPTT, including two sections: (1) taking mPTT as a leading role to maximize its effect by blocking the cell defense mechanisms, and (2) regarding mPTT as a supporting role to assist other therapies to achieve synergistic antitumor curative effect. Meanwhile, the special characteristics and imaging capabilities of nanoplatforms applied in various therapies are discussed. At last, this paper puts forward the bottlenecks and challenges in the current research path of mPTT, and possible solutions and research directions in future are proposed correspondingly.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the most difficult diseases to be treated in the world. Immunotherapy has made great strides in cancer treatment in recent years, and several tumor immunotherapy drugs have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Currently, immunotherapy faces many challenges, such as lacking specificity, cytotoxicity, drug resistance, etc. Nanoparticles have the characteristics of small particle size and stable surface function, playing a miraculous effect in anti-tumor treatment. Nanocarriers such as polymeric micelles, liposomes, nanoemulsions, dendrimers, and inorganic nanoparticles have been widely used to overcome deficits in cancer treatments including toxicity, insufficient specificity, and low bioavailability. Although nanomedicine research is extensive, only a few nanomedicines are approved to be used. Either Bottlenecks or solutions of nanomedicine in immunotherapy need to be further explored to cope with challenges. In this review, a brief overview of several types of cancer immunotherapy approaches and their advantages and disadvantages will be provided. Then, the types of nanomedicines, drug delivery strategies, and the progress of applications are introduced. Finally, the application and prospect of nanomedicines in immunotherapy and Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T) are highlighted and summarized to address the problems of immunotherapy the overall goal of this article is to provide insights into the potential use of nanomedicines and to improve the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common worldwide. Its treatment includes adjuvant chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil (5FU) administered intravenously. 5FU is an antineoplastic drug of the fluoropyrimidines group, widely used in the treatment of solid tumors, mainly CRC. Nevertheless, it causes several adverse effects and poor effectiveness due to its short half-life. This work aimed to employ bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) as an encapsulation material for the oral administration of 5FU. First, the adsorption phenomena were analyzed by isotherms, thermodynamic parameters, and kinetic models. Then, encapsulation was carried out using spray-drying, and encapsulated 5FU desorption profiles were assessed in simulated fluids. The biological behavior was evaluated on colon cancer SW480 and SW620 cell lines. As result, it was found that at 25 °C a monolayer of 5FU was formed and the process showed to be the most spontaneous one. In the characterization of the nanocapsules, important changes were detected by the presence of 5FU. The delivery in the colon corresponded to a controlled release behavior. The in vitro assay indicated an improvement in the toxicity effect of the drug and its mechanism of action. Accordingly, BNC is a promising biomaterial for the development of a colon drug delivery platform of 5FU.

Abstract
Against the backdrop of increased public health awareness, inorganic nanomaterials have been widely explored as promising nanoagents for various kinds of biomedical applications. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs), with versatile physicochemical advantages including excellent biocompatibility, pH-sensitive biodegradability, highly tunable chemical composition and structure, and ease of composite formation with other materials, have shown great promise in biomedical applications. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the recent advances in LDH-based nanomaterials for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Copper-based nanomaterials (Cu-based NMs) with favorable biocompatibility and unique properties have attracted the attention of many biomedical researchers. Cu-based NMs are one of the most widely studied materials in cancer treatment. In recent years, great progress has been made in the field of biomedicine, especially in the treatment and diagnosis of tumors. This review begins with the classification of Cu-based NMs and the recent synthetic strategies of Cu-based NMs. Then, according to the abundant and special properties of Cu-based NMs, their application in biomedicine is summarized in detail. For biomedical imaging, such as photoacoustic imaging, positron emission tomography imaging, and multimodal imaging based on Cu-based NMs are summarized, as well as strategies to improve the diagnostic effectiveness. Moreover, a series of unique structures and functions as well as the underlying property activity relationship of Cu-based NMs were shown to highlight their promising therapeutic performance. Cu-based NMs have been widely used in monotherapies, such as photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Moreover, the sophisticated design in composition, structure, and surface fabrication of Cu-based NMs can endow these NMs with more modalities in cancer diagnosis and therapy. To further improve the efficiency of cancer treatment, combined therapy based on Cu-based NMs was introduced in detail. Finally, the challenges, critical factors, and future prospects for the clinical translation of Cu-based NMs as multifunctional theranostic agents were also considered and discussed. The aim of this review is to provide a better understanding and key consideration for the rational design of this increasingly important new paradigm of Cu-based NMs as theranostic agents. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease Diagnostic Tools > In Vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Efficacy of a traditional anticancer drug is challenged by adverse effects of the drug including its nonspecific bio-distribution, short half-life and side effects. Dendrimer-based targeted drug delivery sysytem has been considered as a promising strategy to increase targeting ability and reduce adverse effects of anti-cancer drugs. OBJECTIVE This study analyzed the feasibility whether the anticancer drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) could be delivered by functionalized fifth-poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) with the peptide WP05 and the acetic anhydride to the liver cancer cells, reducing toxicity of the PAMAM and improving the targeting property of 5-FU during delivery. METHODS The functionalized PAMAM-based nanoformulation (WP05-G5.0NHAC-FUA) was fabricated through an amide condensation reaction to improve therapeutic efficacy of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The physicochemical structure, particle size, zeta potential, stability and in vitro release characteristics of WP05-G5.0NHAC-FUA were evaluated. In addition, the targeting, biocompatibility, anti-proliferation and anti-migration of WP05-G5.0NHAC-FUA were investigated. The anti-tumor effect of WP05-G5.0NHAC-FUA in vivo was evaluated by constructing xenograft tumor models of hunman hepatoma cells (Bel-7402) implanted in nude mice. RESULTS The resultant WP05-G5.0NHAC-FUA displayed spherical-like nanoparticles with the size of 174.20 ± 3.59 nm. Zeta potential and the drug loading of WP05-G5.0NHAC-FUA were 5.62 ± 0.41mV and 28.67 ± 1.25 %, respectively. Notably, the optimized 5-FU-loaded formulation showed greater cytotoxicity with an IC50 of 30.80 ±4.04 μg/mL than free 5-FU (114.93 ±1.43 μg/mL) in Bel-7402 cancer liver cells, but a significantly reduced side effect relative to free 5-FU in L02 normal liver cells. In vivo animal study further confirmed efficient tumor accumulation and enhanced therapeutic efficiency. CONCLUSION The developed nanoformulation is a promising platform for the targeting delivery of 5-FU and provides a promising solution for improving the efficacy of hepatocellular carcinoma chemotherapy.

Abstract
The booming photothermal therapy (PTT) has achieved great progress in non-invasive oncotherapy, and paves a novel way for clinical oncotherapy. Of note, mild temperature PTT (mPTT) of 42–45 °C could avoid treatment bottleneck of the traditional PTT, including nonspecific injury to normal tissues, vasculature and host antitumor immunity. However, cancer cells can resist mPTT via heat shock response and autophagy, thus leading to insufficient mPTT monotherapy to ablate tumor. To overcome the deficient antitumor efficacy caused by thermo-resistance of cancer cells and mono mPTT, synergistic therapies towards cancer cells have been conducted with mPTT. This review summarizes the recent advances in nanomedicine-potentiated mPTT for cancer treatment, including strategies for enhanced single-mode mPTT and mPTT plus synergistic therapies. Moreover, challenges and prospects for clinical translation of nanomedicine-potentiated mPTT are discussed.

Abstract
Background The dual-loaded nano-delivery system can realize chemotherapeutic drug and small interfering RNA (siRNA) co-loading as well as enhance the therapeutic effect of drugs on tumors through a synergistic effect, while reducing their toxic and side effects on normal tissues. Methods Previously, we developed layered smart nanoparticles (NPs) to co-deliver survivin siRNA as well as small molecule drugs for lung cancer. In this study, we used such smart NPs to co-deliver paclitaxel (PTX) and siRNA against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene for breast cancer therapy in mice models. For the prepared NPs, characterizations such as particle size, zeta potential, gel electrophoresis imaging and in vitro stability were investigated. Then, 4T1 cells were used to evaluate the in vitro VEGF silencing capacity, tumor cell inhibitory and anti-apoptotic abilities. Finally, an orthotopic model of mouse breast cancer was established to evaluate the in vivo antitumor effects and safety properties of PTX-siRNAVEGF-NPs. Results We prepared PTX-siRNAVEGF-NPs with particle size of 85.25 nm, PDI of 0.261, and zeta potential of 5.25 mV. The NPs with VEGF siRNA effectively knocked down the expression of VEGF mRNA. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and apoptosis assays revealed that the PTX-siRNAVEGF-NPs exhibited antiproliferation effect of PTX on 4T1 cells. The in vivo anti-tumor study indicated that PTX-siRNAVEGF-NPs could exert an antitumor effect by inhibiting the formation and development of new blood vessels in tumor tissues, thereby cutting off nutrient and blood supplies required for tumor tissue growth. Both the anti-tumor efficacy and in vivo safety of the PTX-siRNAVEGF-NPs group were better than that of the PTX-NPs and siRNAVEGF-NPs groups. Conclusion The combination of PTX and VEGF siRNA exerts good antitumor effect on 4T1 tumor cells. This study provides a theoretical and practical basis for breast cancer therapy.
