Abstract
Background Advanced cancer therapy is targeted at primary tumors and also recurrent or metastatic cancers. Combinational cancer treatment has recently shown high efficiency against recurrent and metastatic cancers. In this study, we synthesized a thermal responsive hybrid nanoparticle (TRH) containing FimH, an immune stimulatory recombinant protein, for the induction of a combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and immunotherapy against cancer and its metastasis. Methods The hybrid nanoparticle was incorporated with a near-infrared (NIR) absorbent, indocyanine green, and decorated with FimH on its surface to form F-TRH. F-TRH was evaluated for its anticancer and antimetastatic effects against CT-26 carcinoma in mice by combining PTT and immunotherapy. Results NIR laser irradiation elicited an elevation of temperature in F-TRH, which induced apoptosis in CT-26 carcinoma cells in vitro. In addition, F-TRH and NIR laser irradiation promoted photothermal-mediated therapeutic effects against CT-26 and 4T1 tumors in mice. The release of FimH from F-TRH in response to elevated temperature and apoptotic bodies of cancer cells via PTT elicited dendritic cell-mediated cancer antigen-specific T-cell responses, which subsequently inhibited the second challenge of CT-26 and 4T1 cell growth in the lung. Conclusions These data demonstrate the potential use of F-TRH for immuno-photothermal therapy against cancer and its recurrence and metastasis.

Abstract
Graft copolymers consisting of two different zwitterionic blocks were synthesized via reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. These polymers showed dual properties of thermo- and pH-responsiveness in an aqueous solution. Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and dynamic light scattering were employed to study the phase behavior under varying temperatures and pH values. Unlike the phase transition temperatures of other graft copolymers containing nonionic blocks, the phase transition temperature of these polymers was easily tuned by changing the polymer concentration. Owing to the biocompatible and stimuli-responsive nature of the polymers, this system was shown to effectively release proteins (lysozyme) while simultaneously protecting them against denaturation. The positively charged lysozyme was shown to bind with the negatively charged polymer at the physiological pH (pH 7.4). However, it was subsequently released at pH 3, at which the polymer exhibits a positive charge. Protein aggregation studies using a residual enzymatic activity assay, circular dichroism, and a Thioflavin T assay revealed that the secondary structure of the lysozyme was retained even after harsh thermal treatment. The addition of these polymers helped the lysozyme retain its enzymatic activity and suppressed its fibrillation. Both polymers showed excellent protein protection properties, with the negatively charged polymer exhibiting slightly superior protein protection properties to those of the neutral polymer. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to develop a graft copolymer system consisting of two different zwitterionic blocks that shows dual thermo- and pH-responsive properties. The presence of the polyampholyte structure enables these polymers to act as protein release agents, while simultaneously protecting the proteins from severe stress.

Abstract
Stimulation of dendritic cells (DCs) by antigens (Ags) promotes an Ag-specific immune response that kills Ag-expressing pathogens. These biologically inspired nanocarriers have received much attention as tools to deliver cancer Ags to DCs. A polymer-templated protein nanoball having hemagglutinin (H1-NB) that mimics the influenza virus can be used as a cancer Ag delivery vehicle, as DCs show effective phagocytic activities against H1-NB without any adjuvant. In the present study, H1-NB containing ovalbumin (OVA), a model Ag (H1-OVA-NB), was prepared as an anti-cancer agent and evaluated for its effect on anticancer immunity. H1-OVA-NB treatments in C57BL/6 mice enhanced OVA-specific immune activation and efficiently inhibited B16-OVA tumor growth compared to control groups. Our results indicate that H1-NB is an effective carrier for Ag delivery to DCs and promotes immunotherapy to fight cancer.

Abstract
Protein nanocapsules are potentially useful as functional nanocarriers because of their hollow structure and high biocompatibility and the intrinsic activity of their protein constituents. However, the development of a facile method for the preparation of oriented nanocapsules that retain their protein activity has been challenging. Here we describe the preparation of protein nanocapsules through the enzymatic removal of polymer templates. Nickel(II) nitrilotriacetic acid-end-functionalized poly(lactic acid) (Ni2+-NTA-PLA) was introduced as a polymeric template to immobilize hexa-histidine-tagged green fluorescence protein (His6-GFP) with consistent orientation. Following protein cross-linking and core-degradation, various measurements as a function of degradation time indicated the formation of hollow structures. We also demonstrated orientational control and activity preservation of the protein after capsule preparation. Protein nanocapsules prepared by this method can act as functional containers, taking advantage of the intrinsic function of their constituent proteins without additional modification.

Abstract
The generation of virus-mimetic nanoparticles has received much attention in developing a new vaccine for overcoming the limitations of current vaccines. Thus, a method, encompassing most viral features for their size, hydrophobic domain and antigen display, would represent a meaningful direction for the vaccine development. In the present study, a polymer-templated protein nanoball with direction oriented hemagglutinin1 on its surface (H1-NB) was prepared as a new influenza vaccine, exhibiting most of the viral features. Moreover, the concentrations of antigen on the particle surface were controlled, and its effect on immunogenicity was estimated by in vivo studies. Finally, H1-NB efficiently promoted H1-specific immune activation and cross-protective activities, which consequently prevented H1N1 infections in mice.
