Abstract
Amphiphilic peptides have garnered significant attention due to their highly designable and self-assembling behaviors. Self-assembled peptides hold excellent potential in various fields such as biosensing, environmental monitoring, and drug delivery, owing to their remarkable biological, physical, and chemical properties. While nanomaterials formed by peptide self-assembly have found widespread use in biomedical applications, the development of 2D peptide nanosheets based on the self-assembly of amphiphilic peptides remains challenging in terms of rational design and morphology modulation. In this study, rationally designed amphiphilic peptide molecules are self-assembled into peptide nanosheets (PNS) under specific conditions to encapsulate gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), resulting in the formation of AuNPs/PNS hybrid materials with high photothermal conversion efficiency. The findings demonstrate that 2D PNS enhances the overall photothermal therapy effect of the nanohybrid materials due to their larger hosting area for AuNPs and higher biocompatibility. The well-designed amphiphilic peptides in this study offer insights into the structural design and functional modulation of self-assembled molecules. In addition, the constructed biomimetic-functional 2D inorganic/organic nanohybrid materials hold potential applications in biomedical engineering.

Abstract
Hollow CuS nanoparticles can achieve photothermal and photodynamic therapy (PDT) in tumor treatment. However, excessive GSH in the tumor cells will consume the reactive oxygen species produced by PDT and reduce the PDT effect. Cisplatin is a broad-spectrum antineoplastic drug that can be used in a variety of tumor treatments. However, cisplatin is cytotoxic to normal cells while it kills tumor cells. Therefore, we construct Pt(IV) complexes loaded hollow CuS nanoparticles to attenuate the toxicity of cisplatin and enhance the PDT effect of the hollow CuS nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were proved to be able to accumulate around the tumor site through the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect to achieve a synergistic chemo/photothermal/photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
The management of diabetic ulcers poses a significant challenge worldwide, and persistent hyperglycemia makes patients susceptible to bacterial infections. Unfortunately, the overuse of antibiotics may lead to drug resistance and prolonged infections, contributing to chronic inflammation and hindering the healing process. To address these issues, a photothermal therapy technique was incorporated in the preparation of wound dressings. This innovative solution involved the formulation of a self-healing and injectable hydrogel matrix based on the Schiff base structure formed between the oxidized Bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP) and hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride chitosan. Furthermore, the introduction of CuO nanoparticles encapsulated in polydopamine imparted excellent photothermal properties to the hydrogel, which promoted the release of berberine (BER) loaded on the nanoparticles and boosted the antibacterial performance. In addition to providing a reliable physical protection to the wound, the developed hydrogel, which integrated the herbal components of BSP and BER, effectively accelerated wound closure via microenvironment regulation, including alleviated inflammatory reaction, stimulated re-epithelialization, and reduced oxidative stress based on the promising results from cell and animal experiments. These impressive outcomes highlighted their clinical potential in safeguarding the wound against bacterial intrusion and managing diabetic ulcers.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a powerful tumor treatment tool due to its advantages including minimal invasiveness, high selectivity and thus dampened side effects. On the other side, the efficacy of PDT is severely frustrated by the limited oxygen level in tumors, thus promoting its combination with other therapies, particularly photothermal therapy (PTT) for bolstered tumor treatment outcomes. Meanwhile, nanomedicines that could respond to various stimuli in the tumor microenvironment (TME) provide tremendous benefits for combined phototherapy with efficient hypoxia relief, tailorable drug release and activation, improved cellular uptake and intratumoral penetration of nanocarriers, etc. In this review, we will introduce the merits of combining PTT with PDT, summarize the recent important progress of combined phototherapies and their combinations with the dominant tumor treatment regimen, chemotherapy based on smart nanomedicines sensitive to various TME stimuli with a focus on their sophisticated designs, and discuss the challenges and future developments of nanomedicine-mediated combined phototherapies.

Abstract
Nanotechnology, an emerging and promising therapeutic tool, may improve the effectiveness of phototherapy (PT) in antitumor therapy because of the development of nanomaterials (NMs) with light-absorbing properties. The tumor-targeted PTs, such as photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT), transform light energy into heat and produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) that accumulate at the tumor site. The increase in ROS levels induces oxidative stress (OS) during carcinogenesis and disease development. Because of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) feature of copper (Cu), a vital trace element in the human body, Cu-based NMs can exhibit good near-infrared (NIR) absorption and excellent photothermal properties. In the tumor microenvironment (TME), Cu2+ combines with H2O2 to produce O2 that is reduced to Cu1+ by glutathione (GSH), causing a Fenton-like reaction that reduces tumor hypoxia and simultaneously generates ROS to eliminate tumor cells in conjunction with PTT/PDT. Compared with other therapeutic modalities, PTT/PDT can precisely target tumor location to kill tumor cells. Moreover, multiple treatment modalities can be combined with PTT/PDT to treat a tumor using Cu-based NMs. Herein, we reviewed and briefly summarized the mechanisms of actions of tumor-targeted PTT/PDT and the role of Cu, generated from Cu-based NMs, in PTs. Furthermore, we described the Cu-based NMs used in PTT/PDT applications.

Abstract
Avoiding the low specificity of phototheranostic reagents at the tumor site is a major challenge in cancer phototherapy. Meanwhile, angiogenesis in the tumor is not only the premise of tumor occurrence but also the basis of tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis, making it an ideal strategy for tumor therapy. Herein, biomimetic cancer cell membrane-coated nanodrugs (mBPP NPs) have been prepared by integrating (i) homotypic cancer cell membranes for evading immune cell phagocytosis to increase drug accumulation, (ii) protocatechuic acid for tumor vascular targeting along with chemotherapy effect, and (iii) near-infrared phototherapeutic agent diketopyrrolopyrrole derivative for photodynamic/photothermal synergetic therapy. The mBPP NPs exhibit high biocompatibility, superb phototoxicity, excellent antiangiogenic ability, and double-trigging cancer cell apoptosis in vitro. More significantly, mBPP NPs could specifically bind to tumor cells and vasculature after intravenous injection, inducing fluorescence and photothermal imaging-guided tumor ablation without recurrence and side effects in vivo. The biomimetic mBPP NPs could cause drug accumulation at the tumor site, inhibit tumor neovascularization, and improve phototherapy efficiency, providing a novel avenue for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Photo-stimuli-responsive therapeutic nanomaterials have gained widespread attention as frontline materials for biomedical applications. The photoactivation strategies are classified as single-modality (based on either reactive oxygen species (ROS)-based photodynamic therapy (PDT), hyperthermia-based photothermal therapy (PTT)), or dual-modality (which combines PDT and PTT). Due to its minimal invasiveness, phototherapy has been extensively applied as an efficient therapeutic platform for many diseases, including skin cancers. However, extensive implementation of phototherapy to address the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections remains challenging. This review focuses on copper sulfide (CuS) nanomaterials as efficient and cost-effective PDT and PTT therapeutic nanomaterials with antibacterial activity. The features and merits of CuS nanomaterials as therapeutics are compared to those of other nanomaterials. Control of the dimensions and morphological complexity of CuS nanomaterials through judicious synthesis is then introduced. Both the in vitro antibacterial activity and the in vivo therapeutic effect of CuS nanomaterials and derivative nanocomposites composed of 2D nanomaterials, polymers, metals, metal oxides, and proteins are described in detail. Finally, the perspective of photo-stimuli-responsive CuS nanomaterials for future clinical antibacterial applications is highlighted. This review illustrates that CuS nanomaterials are highly effective, low-toxic, and environmentally friendly antibacterial agents or platform nanomaterials for combatting MDR bacterial infections.

Abstract
High catalytic activity is one of the necessary parameters for nanozymes to substitute for natural enzymes. It remains a great challenge to improve the specific enzyme-like activity of nanozymes as much as possible using the characteristics of nanomaterials for avoiding complexity and introducing additional uncertainties. Here, by combining the peroxidase (POD)-like activity and plasmon properties of CuS hollow nanocages (CuS HNCs), we demonstrate the feasibility of modulating the catalytic activity of nanozymes by the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. Rough surfaces and hollow-cage structures endow CuS HNCs with abundant hot spots to produce strong LSPR in the near-infrared (NIR) region, which makes the CuS HNCs simultaneously generate plentiful high-energy hot carriers and thermal effect to mediate H2O2 cleavage to yield the reactive oxide species (ROS) as well as speed up the reaction, leading to a dramatically enhanced POD-like activity. Based on the light-enhanced catalytic activity and high photothermal efficiency of the reaction system, a dual-mode strategy for detecting tannic acid (TA) is developed and successfully applied to determine the content of TA in different kinds of teas. This work not only provides a novel path for tuning the specific enzyme-like activity of nanomaterials but also shows a perspective for dual-mode sensing based on a photoinduced plasmon-enhanced effect.

Abstract
We used reduced graphene oxide (rGO), which has two times higher photothermal conversion efficiency than graphene oxide (GO), as a photothermal agent for cancer photothermal therapy (PTT). By conjugating a photosensitizer IR780 to rGO, the IR780-rGO could be endowed with reactive oxygen species (ROSs) generation ability for concurrent photodynamic therapy (PDT). The IR780-rGO was coated with hyaluronic acid (HA) by electrostatic interaction to facilitate its intracellular uptake by U87 glioblastoma cells. The IR780-rGO/HA was loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) for chemotherapy (CT), to develop a pH-responsive drug delivery nano-platform for targeted multimodal cancer CT/PTT/PDT. We fully characterized the properties of all nanocomposites during the synthesis steps. The high loading efficiency of DOX on IR780-rGO-HA provides 3 mg/mg drug loading, while IR780-rGO-HA/DOX shows 3 times higher drug release at endosomal pH value (pH 5) than at pH 7.4. The mechanism for PTT/PDT was confirmed from the ability of IR780-rGO-HA to induce time-dependent temperature rise, synthesis of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and generation of intracellular ROSs, after exposure to 808 nm near infrared (NIR) laser light. The nano-vehicle IR780-rGO-HA shows high biocompatibility toward 3T3 fibroblast and U87 cancer cell lines, as well as enhanced intracellular uptake by U87 through active targeting. This translates into increased cytotoxicity of IR780-rGO-HA/DOX, by lowering the drug half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) from 0.7 to 0.46 μg/mL. This IC50 is further decreased to 0.1 μg/mL by irradiation with NIR laser for 3 min at 1.5 W/cm2. The elevated cancer cell killing mechanism was supported from flow cytometry analysis, where the highest cell apoptosis/necrosis rate was observed in combination CT/PTT/PDT. Using xenograft tumor model created by subcutaneous implantation of U87 cells in nude mice, IR780-rGO-HA/DOX delivered through intravenous (IV) injection and followed with 808 nm laser treatment for 5 min at 1.5 W/cm2 results in the lowest tumor growth rate, with negligible change of tumor volume from its original value at the end 20-day observation period. The therapeutic efficacy was supported from inhibited cell proliferation rate, increased cell apoptosis rate, and increased production of HSP70 from immunohistochemical staining of tumor tissue slices. The safety of the NIR-assisted multimodal cancer treatment could be confirmed from non-significant change of body weight and hematological parameters of blood sample. Taken together, we conclude that IV delivery of IR780-rGO-HA/DOX plus NIR laser treatment is an effective nanomedicine approach for combination cancer therapy.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) utilizes photosensitizers (PSs) to produce reactive oxygen species (ROSs) upon irradiation, which causes the shutdown of vessels and deprives the tumor of nutrients and oxygen, and in turn induces adverse effects on the immune system. However, significant efforts are needed to increase the efficiency in PDT in terms of light delivery to specific PSs for the clinical treatment of tumors located deep under the skin. Even though PDT offers a disease site-specific treatment modality, current efforts are directed to improve the solubility (in body fluids and injectable solvents), photostability, amphiphilicity (for tissue penetration), elimination, and systemic toxicity of traditional PSs based on porphyrin derivatives. Nanostructured materials show promising features to achieve most of such combined efforts. They can be artificially engineered to carry multiple theranostic agents onto targeted tumor sites. However, recent studies on photosensitive Cd-based nanostructures, mostly used in PDT, indicate that leeching of Cd2+ ions is stimulated when they are exposed to harsh biological conditions for continuous periods of time, thus making them acutely toxic and hindering their applications in in vivo settings. Since nanostructured materials are not completely immune to degradation, great strides have been made to seek new alternatives. In this review, we focus on the latest advances of Cd-free nanostructured metal transition sulfides (MTSs) as alternative PSs and study their high-energy transfer efficiency, rational designs, and potential applications in cancer-targeted PDT. Nanostructured MTSs are discussed in the context of their versatility to serve as phototherapy agents and superior properties, including their strong absorption in the NIR region, excellent photothermal conversion efficiency, controlled reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, versatile surface chemistry, high fluorescence, and structural and thermal stability. We discuss the latest advancements in correlating the self-aggregation of MTSs with their passive tumor cell targeting, highlighting their ability to efficiently produce ROSs, and mitigating their dark toxicity through polymeric functionalization. Treatment of deep-seated tumors by using these PSs upon preferential uptake by tumor tissues (due to the enhanced permeability and retention effect) is also reviewed. We finally summarize the main future perspectives of MTSs as next-generation PSs within the context of cancer theranostics.

Combinatorial Therapeutic Approaches with Nanomaterial-Based Photodynamic Cancer Therapy. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14010120.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), in which a light source is used in combination with a photosensitizer to induce local cell death, has shown great promise in therapeutically targeting primary tumors with negligible toxicity and minimal invasiveness. However, numerous studies have shown that noninvasive PDT alone is not sufficient to completely ablate tumors in deep tissues, due to its inherent shortcomings. Therefore, depending on the characteristics and type of tumor, PDT can be combined with surgery, radiotherapy, immunomodulators, chemotherapy, and/or targeted therapy, preferably in a patient-tailored manner. Nanoparticles are attractive delivery vehicles that can overcome the shortcomings of traditional photosensitizers, as well as enable the codelivery of multiple therapeutic drugs in a spatiotemporally controlled manner. Nanotechnology-based combination strategies have provided inspiration to improve the anticancer effects of PDT. Here, we briefly introduce the mechanism of PDT and summarize the photosensitizers that have been tested preclinically for various cancer types and clinically approved for cancer treatment. Moreover, we discuss the current challenges facing the combination of PDT and multiple cancer treatment options, and we highlight the opportunities of nanoparticle-based PDT in cancer therapies.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT), the ability to transform H2O2 into a highly toxic hydroxyl radical (˙OH) through a Fenton or Fenton like reaction to kill cancer cells, enables selective tumor therapy. However, the effect is seriously limited by the insufficiency of endogenous H2O2 in cancer cells. Additionally, the specific recognition of epitope imprinting plays an important role in targeting cancer cell markers. In this work, we prepared H2O2 self-supplying degradable epitope molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP) for effective CDT, employing fluorescent calcium peroxide (FCaO2) as an imaging probe and a source of H2O2, the exposed peptide in the CD47 extracellular region as the template, copper acrylate as one of the functional monomers and N,N'-bisacrylylcystamine (BAC) as a cross-linker. MIP with recognition sites can specifically target CD47-positive cancer cells to achieve fluorescence imaging. Under the reduction of glutathione (GSH), the MIP were degraded and the exposed FCaO2 reacted with water to continuously produce H2O2 in the slightly acidic environment in cancer cells. The self-supplied H2O2 produced ˙OH through a Fenton like catalytic reaction mediated by copper ions in the MIP framework, inducing cancer cell apoptosis. Therefore, the MIP nano-platform, which was capable of specific recognition of the cancer cell marker, H2O2 self-supply and controlled treatment, was successfully used for targeted CDT.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) comprising monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against immune 'checkpoints', such as CTLA-4 and the PD1/PDL1 axis have dramatically improved clinical outcomes for patients with cancer. However, ICB by itself has failed to provide benefit in a wide range of solid tumors, where recurrence still occurs with high incidence. These poor response rates may be due to the therapeutic shortcomings of ICB; namely, a lack of cancer-specific cytotoxicity and ability to debulk tumors. To overcome these limitations, effective ICB therapy may require the combination with other complementary therapeutic platforms. Here, we propose that photothermal therapy (PTT) is an ideal therapeutic modality for combination with ICB because it can generate both tumor-specific cytotoxicity and immunogenicity. PTT elicits these specific effects because it is a localized thermal ablation technique that utilizes light-responsive nanoparticles activated by a wavelength-matched laser. While ICB immunotherapy alone improves cancer immunogenicity but does not generate robust antitumor cytotoxicity, nanoparticle-based PTT elicits targeted and controlled cytotoxicity but sub-optimal long-term immunogenicity. Thus, the two platforms offer complementary and potentially synergistic antitumor effects, which will be detailed in this review. We highlight three classes of nanoparticles used as agents of PTT (i.e., metallic inorganic nanoparticles, carbon-based nanoparticles and organic dyes), and illustrate the potential for nanoparticle-based PTT to potentiate the effects of ICB in preclinical models. Through this discussion, we aim to present PTT combined with ICB as a potent synergistic combination treatment for diverse cancer types currently refractory to ICB as well as PTT monotherapies.

Abstract
Rational design of biocompatible nanoplatforms simultaneously realizing multimodal imaging and therapeutic functions is meaningful to cancer treatment. Herein, the MoS2-CuO heteronanocomposites are designed by integrating semiconductor CuO and flower-like MoS2 via a two-step hydrothermal method. After loading bovine serum albumin (BSA) and immunoadjuvant imiquimod (R837), the obtained MoS2-CuO@BSA/R837 (MCBR) nanoplatforms realize the excellent computed tomography/infrared thermal/magnetic resonance multi-mode bioimaging as well as significantly enhanced antitumor efficacy of synergetic photothermal therapy (PTT)/chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/immunotherapy. In this nanoplatform, the semiconductor CuO exhibits peroxidase-like activity, which can react with over-expressed H2O2 in tumor microenvironment (TME) to generate OH for CDT via Haber-Weiss and Fenton-like reactions. And this process can be further accelerated by the generated heat of MoS2 under 808 nm laser irradiation. More importantly, the obtained multifunctional MCBR nanoplatforms under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation would destroy tumor cells to generate tumor associated antigens (TAAs), which combine with R837 as an adjuvant to trigger strong antitumor immune responses for effectively eliminating primary tumors and metastatic tumors.

Abstract
Hollow nanomaterials have been used as an attractive platform for the integration of multiple bioactive components for effective anticancer therapy. Herein, we report a novel and facile strategy for the fabrication of hollow and monodispersed zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) by the self-template method with folic acid (FA) as a bioetcher. Gold nanocluster and folic acid were critical for the formation of the hollow ZIF-8 (thickness of 38 nm) during solvothermal synthesis. By integrating CuS nanoparticles (size of 4.9 nm), the resultant quadruple ZIF-8/Au/CuS/FA nanocomposites (denoted as FACZ) exhibited effective anticancer activities on FA receptor-positive MCF-7 and HepG-2 tumor cells but a weak killing effect on HCMEC/D3 cells. Folic acid molecules were conjugated to the external surface of FACZ, which simultaneously offered an excellent tumor-targeting ability and fluorescence imaging property. Although the photothermal therapy caused by CuS was not so obvious due to partial reduction, the nanosized FACZ after cellular uptake was able to release Cu(I) to enable chemodynamic therapy. This catalytically decomposed H2O2 to produce highly reactive oxygen species via the Fenton-like reaction as determined by the extracellular and intracellular hydroxyl radical. Our work offers a simple route for the fabrication of hollow ZIF-8 nanocomposite with active and selective anticancer activity. This is envisaged to have great potentials in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance has already been recognized as one of the greatest threats to human beings' health, and thus it is highly desirable to develop new bactericidal approaches. The photothermal antibacterial process based on the photo-to-thermal conversion using semiconducting materials is currently extensively studied owing to its high efficiency, long durability and environmental benignity. In this study, we fabricated copper sulfide (CuS) nanoparticle-decorated graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheets, denoted as the PEG-CuS@g-C3N4 nanocomposite, via a simple hydrothermal process. Materials characterization showed that CuS nanoparticles were uniformly distributed on the surface of g-C3N4 without agglomeration. Moreover, the nanocomposite exhibited excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (up to 59.64%) due to its strong near-infrared (NIR) absorption characteristics. The antibacterial efficiency evaluation indicated that the PEG-CuS@g-C3N4 nanocomposite could effectively kill the Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and the Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli). We found that up to 99% of both S. aureus and E. coli could be killed in a 200 μg ml-1 PEG-CuS@g-C3N4 suspension within 20 min of NIR irradiation. Moreover, the cytotoxicity of the PEG-CuS@g-C3N4 nanocomposite was evaluated using the mouse skin fibroblast NIH-3T3 cells, and the nanocomposite was found to display acceptable biocompatibility. We believe that the PEG-CuS@g-C3N4 nanocomposite is of significant interest for rapid bacteria-killing, and would gain promising applications for sterilization.
