Abstract
Monitoring the health conditions of the environment and humans is essential for ensuring human well-being, promoting global health, and achieving sustainability. Innovative biosensors are crucial in accurately monitoring health conditions, uncovering the hidden connections between the environment and human well-being, and understanding how environmental factors trigger autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and infectious diseases. This review evaluates the use of nanoplasmonic biosensors that can monitor environmental health and human diseases according to target analytes of different sizes and scales, providing valuable insights for preventive medicine. We begin by explaining the fundamental principles and mechanisms of nanoplasmonic biosensors. We investigate the potential of nanoplasmonic techniques for detecting various biological molecules, extracellular vesicles (EVs), pathogens, and cells. We also explore the possibility of wearable nanoplasmonic biosensors to monitor the physiological network and healthy connectivity of humans, animals, plants, and organisms. This review will guide the design of next-generation nanoplasmonic biosensors to advance sustainable global healthcare for humans, the environment, and the planet.

Tunable lipid-coated nanoporous silver sheet for characterization of protein-membrane interactions by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Anal Bioanal Chem 2023:10.1007/s00216-023-04701-y. [PMID: 37083760 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-023-04701-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/22/2023]
Abstract
Membrane environments affect protein structures and functions through protein-membrane interactions in a wide range of important biological processes. To better study the effects from the lipid's hydrophilic and hydrophobic interaction with protein on different membrane regions, we developed the lipid-coated nanoporous silver sheets to provide tunable supported lipid monolayer/bilayer environments for in situ surface-enhanced Raman vibrational spectroscopy (SERS) characterizations. Under the controllable surface pressure, lipid monolayer/bilayer was coated along the microscopic curved surface of nanoporous silver sheets to serve as a cell membrane mimic as well as a barrier to avoid protein denaturation while empowering the high SERS enhancements from the underlying metallic bases allowing detection sensitivity at low physiological concentrations. Moreover, we fine-tuned the lipid packing density and controlled the orientation of the deposited lipid bilayers and monolayers to directly monitor the protein structures upon interactions with various membrane parts/positions. Our results indicate that lysozyme adopted the α-helical structure in both hydrophilic and hydrophobic interaction with lipid membrane. Interestingly, alpha-synuclein folded into the α-helical structure on the negatively charged lipid heads, whereas the hydrophobic lipid tails induced the β-sheet structural conversion of alpha-synuclein originated from its unstructured monomers. These direct observations on protein hydrophilic and hydrophobic interaction with lipid membrane might provide profound insights into the formation of the β-sheet-containing alpha-synuclein oligomers for further membrane disruptions and amyloid genesis associated with Parkinson's disease. Hence, with the controllability and tunability of lipid environments, our platform holds great promise for more general applications in investigating the influences from membranes and the correlative structures of proteins under both hydrophilic and hydrophobic effects.

Abstract
Nanomembranes are the most widespread building block of life, as they encompass cell and organelle walls. Their synthetic counterparts can be described as freestanding or free-floating structures thinner than 100 nm, down to monatomic/monomolecular thickness and with giant lateral aspect ratios. The structural confinement to quasi-2D sheets causes a multitude of unexpected and often counterintuitive properties. This has resulted in synthetic nanomembranes transiting from a mere scientific curiosity to a position where novel applications are emerging at an ever-accelerating pace. Among wide fields where their use has proven itself most fruitful are nano-optics and nanophotonics. However, the authors are unaware of a review covering the nanomembrane use in these important fields. Here, we present an attempt to survey the state of the art of nanomembranes in nanophotonics, including photonic crystals, plasmonics, metasurfaces, and nanoantennas, with an accent on some advancements that appeared within the last few years. Unlimited by the Nature toolbox, we can utilize a practically infinite number of available materials and methods and reach numerous properties not met in biological membranes. Thus, nanomembranes in nano-optics can be described as real metastructures, exceeding the known materials and opening pathways to a wide variety of novel functionalities.

Abstract
Hybrid bilayer membrane (HBM) platforms represent an emerging nanoscale bio-inspired interface that has broad implications in energy catalysis and smart molecular devices. An HBM contains multiple modular components that include an underlying inorganic surface with a biological layer appended on top. The inorganic interface serves as a support with robust mechanical properties that can also be decorated with functional moieties, sensing units and catalytic active sites. The biological layer contains lipids and membrane-bound entities that facilitate or alter the activity and selectivity of the embedded functional motifs. With their structural complexity and functional flexibility, HBMs have been demonstrated to enhance catalytic turnover frequency and regulate product selectivity of the O2 and CO2 reduction reactions, which have applications in fuel cells and electrolysers. HBMs can also steer the mechanistic pathways of proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactions of quinones and metal complexes by tuning electron and proton delivery rates. Beyond energy catalysis, HBMs have been equipped with enzyme mimics and membrane-bound redox agents to recapitulate natural energy transport chains. With channels and carriers incorporated, HBM sensors can quantify transmembrane events. This Review serves to summarize the major accomplishments achieved using HBMs in the past decade.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the second most common cancer in women globally after lung cancer. Presently, the most important approach for BC treatment consists of surgery, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The latter therapeutic methods are often unsuccessful in the treatment of BC because of their various side effects and the damage incurred to healthy tissues and organs. Currently, numerous nanoparticles (NPs) have been identified and synthesized to selectively target BC cells without causing any impairments to the adjacent normal tissues or organs. Based on an exploratory study, this comprehensive review aims to provide information on engineered NPs and their payloads as promising tools in the treatment of BC. Therapeutic drugs or natural bioactive compounds generally incorporate engineered NPs of ideal sizes and shapes to enhance their solubility, circulatory half-life, and biodistribution, while reducing their side effects and immunogenicity. Furthermore, ligands such as peptides, antibodies, and nucleic acids on the surface of NPs precisely target BC cells. Studies on the synthesis of engineered NPs and their impact on BC were obtained from PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. This review provides insights on the importance of engineered NPs and their methodology for validation as a next-generation platform with preventive and therapeutic effects against BC.

Abstract
Quantum-size metal clusters with multiple delocalized electrons could support collective plasmon excitation, and thus, theoretically, coupling of plasmons in the few-atom limit might exist between assembled metal clusters, while currently few experimental observations about this phenomenon have been reported. Here we examined the optical absorption of DNA-templated Ag nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs) assembled through DNA hybridization and found their absorption peaks were sensitive to the assembled distances, which share common characteristics with classical plasmon coupling. Dipolar charge distribution, multiple transition contributed optical absorption, and strongly enhanced electric field simulated by time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) indicated the origin of the absorption of individual DNA-AgNCs is a plasmon. The consistency of the peak-shifting trend between experimental and simulation results for assembled DNA-AgNCs suggested the possible presence of plasmon coupling. Our data imply the possibility for quantum-size structures to support plasmon coupling and also show that DNA-AgNCs possess the potential to be promising materials for construction of plasmon-coupling devices with ultrasmall size, site-specific and stoichiometric binding abilities, and biocompatibility.

Abstract
Plasmonic dimers not only provide a unique platform for studying fundamental plasmonic behavior and effects but also are functional materials for numerous applications. The efficient creation of well-defined dimers with flexible control of structure parameters and thus tunable optical property is the prerequisite for fully exploiting the potential of this nanostructure. Herein, based on a polymer-assisted self-assembly approach in conjugation with molecular cage chemistry, a strategy was demonstrated for constructing cage-bridged plasmonic dimers with controlled sizes, compositions, shape, symmetry, and interparticle gap separation in a modular and high-yield manner. With a high degree of freedom and controllability, this strategy allows facilely accessing various symmetrical/asymmetrical dimers with sub-5 nm gap distance and tailored optical properties. Importantly, as the linkage of the two constituent elements, the molecular cages embedded in the junction endow the assembled dimers with the ability to precisely and reversibly host rich guest molecules in hotspot regions, offering great potential for creating various plasmon-mediated applications.

Abstract
The development of machine learning provides solutions for predicting the complicated immune responses and pharmacokinetics of nanoparticles (NPs) in vivo. However, highly heterogeneous data in NP studies remain challenging because of the low interpretability of machine learning. Here, we propose a tree-based random forest feature importance and feature interaction network analysis framework (TBRFA) and accurately predict the pulmonary immune responses and lung burden of NPs, with the correlation coefficient of all training sets >0.9 and half of the test sets >0.75. This framework overcomes the feature importance bias brought by small datasets through a multiway importance analysis. TBRFA also builds feature interaction networks, boosts model interpretability, and reveals hidden interactional factors (e.g., various NP properties and exposure conditions). TBRFA provides guidance for the design and application of ideal NPs and discovers the feature interaction networks that contribute to complex systems with small-size data in various fields.

Abstract
One major frustration in developing antibiotics is that bacteria can quickly develop resistance that would require an entirely new cycle of research and clinical testing to overcome. Although plenty of bactericidal nanomaterials have been developed against increasingly severe superbugs, few reports have studied the resistance to these nanomaterials. Herein, we show that antibacterial 4,6-diamino-2-pyrimidine thiol (DAPT)-capped gold nanoparticles (AuDAPTs) can induce a 16-fold increased minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of E. coli only after very long term exposure (183 days), without developing cross-resistance to commercialized antibiotics. Strikingly, we recovered the bactericidal activities of AuDAPTs to the resistant strain by tuning the sizes of AuDAPTs without employing new chemicals. Such slow, easy-to-handle resistance induced by AuDAPTs is unprecedented compared to traditional antibiotics or other nanomaterials. In addition to the novel antibacterial activities and biocompatibilities, our approach will accelerate the development of gold nanomaterial-based therapeutics against multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has largely spurred the development of biological systems by taking advantage of the unique chemical, physical, optical, magnetic, and electrical properties of nanostructures. Self-limiting self-assembly of supraparticles produce new nanostructures and display great potential to create biomimicking nanostructures with desired functionalities. In this minireview, we summarize the recent developments and outstanding achievements of colloidal supraparticles, such as the driving forces for self-limiting self-assembly of supraparticles and properties of constructed supraparticles. Their application values in biological systems have also been illustrated.

[PMID: 33120200 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2020.120469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2020] [Revised: 10/07/2020] [Accepted: 10/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Exploring the interactions between the immune system and nanomaterials (NMs) is critical for designing effective and safe NMs, but large knowledge gaps remain to be filled prior to clinical applications (e.g., immunotherapy). The lack of databases on interactions between the immune system and NMs affects the discovery of new NMs for immunotherapy. Complement activation and inhibition by NMs have been widely studied, but the general rules remain unclear. Biomimetic nanocoating to promote the clearance of NMs by the immune system is an alternative strategy for the immune response mediation of the biological corona. Immune response predictions based on NM properties can facilitate the design of NMs for immunotherapy, and artificial intelligences deserve much attention in the field. This review addresses the knowledge gaps regarding immune response and immunotherapy in relation to NMs, effective immunotherapy and material design without adverse immune responses.

Abstract
The lack of a scalable nanoparticle-based computing architecture severely limits the potential and use of nanoparticles for manipulating and processing information with molecular computing schemes. Inspired by the von Neumann architecture (VNA), in which multiple programs can be operated without restructuring the computer, we realized the nanoparticle-based VNA (NVNA) on a lipid chip for multiple executions of arbitrary molecular logic operations in the single chip without refabrication. In this system, nanoparticles on a lipid chip function as the hardware that features memory, processors, and output units, and DNA strands are used as the software to provide molecular instructions for the facile programming of logic circuits. NVNA enables a group of nanoparticles to form a feed-forward neural network, a perceptron, which implements functionally complete Boolean logic operations, and provides a programmable, resettable, scalable computing architecture and circuit board to form nanoparticle neural networks and make logical decisions.

Abstract
Since infectious diseases, particularly viral infections, have threatened human health and caused huge economical losses globally, a rapid, sensitive, and selective virus detection platform is highly demanded. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with flat solid substrates has been dominantly used in detecting whole viruses for its straightforwardness and simplicity in assay protocols, but it often suffers from limited sensitivity, poor quantification range, and a time-consuming assay procedure. Here, a lipid-nanopillar-array-based immunosorbent assay (LNAIA) is developed with a nanopillar-supported lipid bilayer substrate with fluorophore-modified antibodies for rapid, sensitive, and quantitative detection of viruses. 3D nanopillar array structures and fluid antibodies with fluorophores facilitate faster and efficient target binding and rapid fluorophore localization for quick, reliable analysis on binding events with a conventional fluorescence microscopy setup. LNAIA enables quantification of H1N1 virus that targets down to 150 virus particles with 5-orders-of-magnitude dynamic range within 25 min, which cannot be achieved with conventional ELISA platforms.
