Abstract
The unique characteristics of stem cells, which include self-renewal and differentiation into specific cell types, have paved the way for the development of various biomedical applications such as stem cell therapy, disease modelling, and drug screening. The establishment of effective stem cell differentiation techniques is essential for the effective application of stem cells for various purposes. Ongoing research has sought to induce stem cell differentiation using diverse differentiation factors, including chemicals, proteins, and integrin expression. These differentiation factors play a pivotal role in a variety of applications. However, it is equally essential to acknowledge the potential hazards of uncontrolled differentiation. For example, uncontrolled differentiation can give rise to undesirable consequences, including cancerous mutations and stem cell death. Therefore, the development of innovative methods to control stem cell differentiation is crucial. In this review, we discuss recent research cases that have effectively utilised porous functional material-based drug delivery systems to regulate stem cell differentiation. Due to their unique substrate properties, drug delivery systems based on porous functional materials effectively induce stem cell differentiation through the steady release of differentiation factors. These ground-breaking techniques hold considerable promise for guiding and controlling the fate of stem cells for a wide range of biomedical applications, including stem cell therapy, disease modelling, and drug screening.

Abstract
![]()
Nanoparticle-based
drug delivery systems have the potential for
increasing the efficiency of chemotherapeutics by enhancing the drug
accumulation at specific target sites, thereby reducing adverse side
effects and mitigating patient acquired resistance. In particular,
photo-responsive nanomaterials have attracted much interest due to
their ability to release molecular cargos on demand upon light irradiation.
In some settings, they can also provide complementary information
by optical imaging on the (sub)cellular scale. We herein present a
system based on lithium niobate harmonic nanoparticles (LNO HNPs)
for the decoupled multi-harmonic cell imaging and near-infrared light-triggered
delivery of an erlotinib derivative (ELA) for the treatment
of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-overexpressing carcinomas.
The ELA cargo was covalently conjugated to the surface
of silica-coated LNO HNPs through a coumarinyl photo-cleavable linker,
achieving a surface loading of the active molecule of 27 nmol/mg NPs.
The resulting nanoconjugates (LNO-CM-ELA NPs) were successfully
imaged upon pulsed laser excitation at 1250 nm in EGFR-overexpressing
human prostate cancer cells DU145 by detecting the second harmonic
emission at 625 nm, in the tissue transparency window. Tuning the
laser at 790 nm resulted in the uncaging of the ELA cargo
as a result of the second harmonic emission of the inorganic HNP core
at 395 nm. This protocol induced a significant growth inhibition in
DU145 cells, which was only observed upon specific irradiation at
790 nm, highlighting the promising capabilities of LNO-CM-ELA NPs for theranostic applications.

Abstract
Theranostics combines diagnostics and therapy in a single multifunctional system. Multifunctional upconversion luminescent lanthanide-doped nanothermometers for theranostic purposes offer non-invasive and sensitive multimodal performance in the biomedical field over traditional temperature measurement methods. Despite existing challenges, various studies on hybrid upconversion nanothermometers show substantial progress for (bio)imaging, temperature sensing, photodynamic and photothermal therapy, as well as drug delivery applications. The beauty of such an approach is that it unfolds possibilities to combine diagnostics and therapy in a single particle, which can modify the way certain diseases are treated, hence change the entire healthcare scene.

Abstract
The right choice of synthesis route for upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) is crucial for obtaining a well-defined product with a specific application capability. Thus we decided to compare the physicochemical, cytotoxic, and temperature-sensing properties of UCNPs obtained from different rare earth (RE) ions, which has been made for the first time in a single study. The core/shell NaYF4:Yb3+,Er3+/NaYF4 UCNPs were obtained by reaction in a mixture of oleic acid and octadecene, and their highly stable water colloids were prepared using the ligand-free modification method. Both oleate-capped and ligand-free UCNPs exhibited a bright upconversion emission upon 975 nm excitation. Moreover, slope values, emission quantum yields, and luminescence lifetimes confirmed an effective energy transfer between the Yb3+ and Er3+ ions. Additionally, the water colloids of the UCNPs showed temperature-sensing properties with a good thermal sensitivity level, higher than 1 % K-1 at 358 K. Evaluation of the cytotoxicity profiles of the obtained products indicated that cell viability was decreased in a dose-dependent manner in the analyzed concentration range.

Polymers (Basel) 2021; 13:3522.

Abstract
A fluorescent probe for specific biorecognition was prepared by a facile method in which amphiphilic random copolymers were encapsulated with hydrophobic upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs). This method quickly converted the hydrophobic UCNPs to hydrophilic UNCPs. Moreover, the self-folding ability of the amphiphilic copolymers allowed the formation of molecular imprinting polymers with template-shaped cavities. LiYF4:Yb3+/Tm3+@LiYF4:Yb3+ UCNP with up-conversion emission in the visible light region was prepared; this step was followed by the synthesis of an amphiphilic random copolymer, poly(methacrylate acid-co-octadecene) (poly(MAA-co-OD)). Combining the UCNPs and poly(MAA-co-OD) with the templates afforded a micelle-like structure. After removing the templates, UCNPs encapsulated with the molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) (UCNPs@MIP) were obtained. The adsorption capacities of UCNPs@MIP bound with albumin and hemoglobin, respectively, were compared. The results showed that albumin was more easily bound to UCNPs@MIP than to hemoglobin because of the effect of protein conformation. The feasibility of using UCNPs@MIP as a fluorescent probe was also studied. The results showed that the fluorescence was quenched when hemoglobin was adsorbed on UCNPs@MIP; however, this was not observed for albumin. This fluorescence quenching is attributed to Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and overlap of the absorption spectrum of hemoglobin with the fluorescence spectrum of UCNPs@MIP. To our knowledge, the encapsulation approach for fabricating the UCNPs@MIP nanocomposite, which was further used as a fluorescent probe, might be the first report on specific biorecognition.

Abstract
Due to the unique properties of lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNP) under near-infrared (NIR) light, the last decade has shown a sharp progress in their biomedicine applications. Advances in the techniques for polymer, dye, and bio-molecule conjugation on the surface of the nanoparticles has further expanded their dynamic opportunities for optogenetics, oncotherapy and bioimaging. In this account, considering the primary benefits such as the absence of photobleaching, photoblinking, and autofluorescence of UCNPs not only facilitate the construction of accurate, sensitive and multifunctional nanoprobes, but also improve therapeutic and diagnostic results. We introduce, with the basic knowledge of upconversion, unique properties of UCNPs and the mechanisms involved in photon upconversion and discuss how UCNPs can be implemented in biological practices. In this focused review, we categorize the applications of UCNP-based various strategies into the following domains: neuromodulation, immunotherapy, drug delivery, photodynamic and photothermal therapy, bioimaging and biosensing. Herein, we also discuss the current emerging bioapplications with cutting edge nano-/biointerfacing of UCNPs. Finally, this review provides concluding remarks on future opportunities and challenges on clinical translation of UCNPs-based nanotechnology research.

Abstract
The use of medicinal plants is as ancient as human civilization. The development of phytochemistry and pharmacology facilitates the identification of natural bioactive compounds and their mechanisms of action, including against cancer. The efficacy and the safety of a bioactive compound depend on its optimal delivery to the target site. Most natural bioactive compounds (phenols, flavonoids, tannins, etc.) are unable to reach their target sites due to their low water solubility, less cellular absorption, and high molecular weight, leading to their failure into clinical translation. Therefore, many scientific studies are going on to overcome the drawbacks of natural products for clinical applications. Several studies in India, as well as worldwide, have proposed the development of natural products-based nanoformulations to increase their efficacy and safety profile for cancer therapy by improving the delivery of natural bioactive compounds to their target site. Therefore, we are trying to discuss the development of natural products-based nanoformulations in India to improve the efficacy and safety of natural bioactive compounds against cancer.

Abstract
Herein, a Yb,Tm:NaYF4@NaLuF4/Mn:CsPbCl3 quasi-core/shell heterostructure is synthesized with the assistance of silica. The strong upconverting and downshifting emission of Mn2+ ions was observed in the nanocomposite with a quasi-core/shell structure. The FRET process further improves the energy utilization efficiency of PQDs for UCNPs, which depends on the quasi-core/shell heterostructure. Considering the dual-model fluorescence emission behavior of Mn2+ ions, the stable Yb,Tm:NaYF4@NaLuF4/Mn:CsPbCl3 nanocomposite is used in anti-counterfeiting applications.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a well-known chemotherapeutic agent extensively applied in the field of cancer therapy. However, similar to other chemotherapeutic agents such as cisplatin, paclitaxel, docetaxel, etoposide and oxaliplatin, cancer cells are able to obtain chemoresistance that limits DOX efficacy. In respect to dose-dependent side effect of DOX, enhancing its dosage is not recommended for effective cancer chemotherapy. Therefore, different strategies have been considered for reversing DOX resistance and diminishing its side effects. Phytochemical are potential candidates in this case due to their great pharmacological activities. Curcumin is a potential antitumor phytochemical isolated from Curcuma longa with capacity of suppressing cancer metastasis and proliferation and affecting molecular pathways. Experiments have demonstrated the potential of curcumin for inhibiting chemoresistance by downregulating oncogene pathways such as MMP-2, TGF-β, EMT, PI3K/Akt, NF-κB and AP-1. Furthermore, coadministration of curcumin and DOX potentiates apoptosis induction in cancer cells. In light of this, nanoplatforms have been employed for codelivery of curcumin and DOX. This results in promoting the bioavailability and internalization of the aforementioned active compounds in cancer cells and, consequently, enhancing their antitumor activity. Noteworthy, curcumin has been applied for reducing adverse effects of DOX on normal cells and tissues via reducing inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis. The current review highlights the anticancer mechanism, side effects and codelivery of curcumin and DOX via nanovehicles.

Abstract
Abstract-Theranostics is the direction in modern biomedicine aimed at developing drugs that combine the capabilities of diagnosis and therapy of tumors in one agent. Upconversion nanophosphors (UCNPs) are inorganic crystalline materials that can be used to create a nanoplatform providing diagnostic and therapeutic modalities. They have been proposed as luminescent markers for optical imaging of biological tissue due to their anti-Stokes luminescence, lack of photodegradation and low toxicity. In this article, UCNPs as a theranostic agent for both optical imaging and delivery of anticancer drugs have been offered. To obtain biocompatible nanocomplexes, UCNP surface with a core/shell structure of NaYF4:Yb3+Tm3+/NaYF4 was modified with polylactic acid in the presence of various stabilizers (dextran, polyvinyl alcohol, and poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone). To give the therapeutic modality to the nanocomplex, the antitumor antibiotic doxorubicin was loaded into the polymer shell. The loading efficiency was up to 0.1 mg per 1 mg UCNPs. The toxicity and the intracellular accumulation of nanocomplexes were evaluated in vitro. It was concluded that the modification of UCNPs with polylactic acid provides the transport of doxorubicin, allowing the combination of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities in one agent.

Abstract
Nanosystems have shown encouraging outcomes and substantial progress in the areas of drug delivery and biomedical applications. However, the controlled and targeted delivery of drugs or genes can be limited due to their physicochemical and functional properties. In this regard, core-shell type nanoparticles are promising nanocarrier systems for controlled and targeted drug delivery applications. These functional nanoparticles are emerging as a particular class of nanosystems because of their unique advantages, including high surface area, and easy surface modification and functionalization. Such unique advantages can facilitate the use of core-shell nanoparticles for the selective mingling of two or more different functional properties in a single nanosystem to achieve the desired physicochemical properties that are essential for effective targeted drug delivery. Several types of core-shell nanoparticles, such as metallic, magnetic, silica-based, upconversion, and carbon-based core-shell nanoparticles, have been designed and developed for drug delivery applications. Keeping the scope, demand, and challenges in view, the present review explores state-of-the-art developments and advances in core-shell nanoparticle systems, the desired structure-property relationships, newly generated properties, the effects of parameter control, surface modification, and functionalization, and, last but not least, their promising applications in the fields of drug delivery, biomedical applications, and tissue engineering. This review also supports significant future research for developing multi-core and shell-based functional nanosystems to investigate nano-therapies that are needed for advanced, precise, and personalized healthcare systems.

Abstract
Lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have attracted great attention in bioimaging applications. However, the stability and resolution of bioimaging based on UCNPs should be further improved. Herein, we synthesized SiO2-coated Ga(III)-doped ZnO (GZO) with lanthanide ion Yb(III) and Tm(III) (Yb/Tm/GZO@SiO2) UCNPs, which realized red fluorescence imaging in heart tissue. With increasing injection concentrations of Yb/Tm/GZO@SiO2 (1-10 mg/kg), the red fluorescence imaging intensity of heart tissue gradually increased. Moreover, the experimental results of toxicity in vitro and histological assessments of representative organs in vivo were studied, indicating that Yb/Tm/GZO@SiO2 UCNPs had low biological toxicity. These results proved that Yb/Tm/GZO@SiO2 can be used as a probe for fluorescence imaging in vivo.
