Abstract
Stimuli-responsive nanomaterials have emerged as a promising strategy for inclusion in anticancer therapy. In particular, pH-responsive silica nanocarriers have been studied to provide controlled drug delivery in acidic tumor microenvironments. However, the intracellular microenvironment that the nanosystem must face has an impact on the anticancer effect; therefore, the design of the nanocarrier and the mechanisms that govern drug release play a crucial role in optimizing efficacy. Here, we synthesized and characterized mesoporous silica nanoparticles with transferrin conjugated on their surface via a pH-sensitive imine bond (MSN-Tf) to assess camptothecin (CPT) loading and release. The results showed that CPT-loaded MSN-Tf (MSN-Tf@CPT) had a size of ca. 90 nm, a zeta potential of -18.9 mV, and a loaded content of 13.4%. The release kinetic data best fit a first-order model, and the predominant mechanism was Fickian diffusion. Additionally, a three-parameter model demonstrated the drug-matrix interaction and impact of transferrin in controlling the release of CPT from the nanocarrier. Taken together, these results provide new insights into the behavior of a hydrophobic drug released from a pH-sensitive nanosystem.

Abstract
Novel multi-responsive drug delivery vehicles (CDs/PNVCL@HMSNs) were prepared by grafting amino-terminated poly (N-vinyl caprolactam) (PNVCL-NH2) and amino-rich carbon dots (CDs) on the surface of aldehyde-functionalized HMSNs (HMSNs-CHO) via Schiff base reaction. The CDs were prepared from L-arginine and their surfaces were rich in guanidine. Doxorubicin (DOX) was loaded into the nanoparticles to form drug loaded vehicles (CDs/PNVCL@HMSNs-DOX) and the drug loading efficiency was 58.38%. The drug release behaviors of CDs/PNVCL@HMSNs-DOX showed temperature and pH responsiveness due to the poly (N-vinyl caprolactam) (PNVCL) and Schiff base bond. The high concentration of NO released in high concentration H2O2 of tumor site could induce tumor cells apoptosis. The multi-responsive CDs/PNVCL@HMSNs are intriguing drug carriers, which combine drug delivery and NO release in one.

Abstract
This work describes a one-pot synthesis of dendrite-like hyperbranched polyglycerols (HPGs) via a ring-opening multibranching polymerization (ROMBP) process using a bis(5,7-dichloro-2-methyl-8-quinolinolato)methyl aluminum complex (1) as a catalyst and 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)propane/trimethylol propane (TMP) as an initiator. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was used to elucidate the molecular structure of complex 1. Inverse-gated (IG)13C NMR analysis of HPGs showed degree of branching between 0.50 and 0.57. Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analysis of the HPG polymers provided low, medium, and high-molecular weight (M n) polymers ranging from 14 to 73 kDa and molecular weight distributions (M w/M n) between 1.16 and 1.35. The obtained HPGs exhibited high wettability with water contact angle between 18 and 21° and T g ranging between -39 and -55 °C. Notably, ancillary ligand-supported aluminum complexes as catalysts for HPG polymerization reactions have not been reported to date. The obtained HPG polymers in the presence of the aluminum complex (1) can be used for various biomedical applications. Here, nanocomposite electrospun fibers were fabricated with synthesized HPG polymer. The nanofibers were subjected to cell culture experiments to evaluate cytocompatibility behavior with L929 and MG63 cells. The cytocompatibility studies of HPG polymer and nanocomposite scaffold showed high cell viability and spreading. The study results concluded, synthesized HPG polymers and composite nanofibers can be used for various biomedical applications.

Abstract
An ultrasonic method (20 kHz) is introduced to activate pristine ibuprofen organic molecular crystals via complexation with silver in nitrogen-doped oxidized graphene nanoplatforms (∼50 nm). Ultrasonic complexation occurs in a single-step procedure through the binding of the carboxylic groups with Ag and H-bond formation, involving noncovalent πC=C → πC=C* transitions in the altered phenyl ring and πPY → πCO* in ibuprofen occurring between the phenyl ring and C-O bonds as a result of interaction with hydroxyl radicals. The ibuprofen-silver complex in ≪NrGO≫ exhibits a ∼42 times higher acceleration rate than free ibuprofen of the charge transfer between hexacyanoferrate and thiosulfate ions. The increased acceleration rate can be caused by electron injection/ejection at the interface of the ≪Ag-NrGO≫ nanoplatform and formation of intermediate species (Fe(CN)5(CNSO3)x- with x = 4 or 5 and AgHS2O3) at the excess of produced H+ ions. Important for microwave chemotherapy, ibuprofen-silver complexes in the ≪NrGO≫ nanoplatform can produce H+ ions at ∼12.5 times higher rate at the applied voltage range from 0.53 to 0.60 V. ≪Ibu-Ag-NrGO≫ NPs develop ∼105 order higher changes of the electric field strength intensity than free ibuprofen in the microwave absorption range of 100-1000 MHz as revealed from the theoretical modeling of a cervix tumor tissue.

Abstract
Background: Lipid and polymer microbubbles (MBs) are widely used as ultrasound contrast agents in clinical diagnosis, and possess great potential in ultrasound-mediated therapy due to their drug loading function. However, overcoming the limitations of stability and echo enhancement of MBs are still a considerable challenge.Methods: A series novel block, graft and block-graft copolymers was proposed and prepared in this work, and these copolymers were used as shells to encapsulate perfluoropentane as ultrasound contrast agents. First, block, graft and block-graft copolymers with different topological structures were prepared. Then, these copolymers were prepared into block copolymer phase-transition MBs, graft copolymer phase-transition MBs, and block-graft copolymer phase-transition MBs, respectively. Finally, the dexamethasone was used for drug-loaded phase-transition microbubbles model to explore the potential of theranostic microbubbles.Results: Finally, these three resulting copolymer MBs with average size of 4–5 μm exhibited well enhancement of ultrasound imaging under the influence of different frequencies and mechanical index, and they exhibited a longer contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging time and higher resistance to mechanical index compared with SonoVue in vitro and in vivo. In vitro drug release results also showed that these copolymer MBs could encapsulate dexamethasone drugs, and the drug release could be enhanced by ultrasonic triggering. These copolymer MBs were therapeutic MBs for targeted triggering drug release.Conclusion: Therefore, the feasibility of block, graft, and block-graft copolymers as ultrasonic contrast agents was verified, and their ultrasonic enhancement performance in vitro and in vivo was compared. The ultrasound contrast agents developed in this work have excellent development potential in comprehensive diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
The emergence and development of aggregation induced emission (AIE) have attracted worldwide attention due to its unique photophysical phenomenon and for removing the obstacle of aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) which is the most detrimental process thereby making AIE an important and promising aspect in various fields of fluorescent material, sensing, bioimaging, optoelectronics, drug delivery system, and theranostics. In this review, we have discussed insights and explored recent advances that are being made in AIE active materials and their application in sensing, biological cell imaging, and drug delivery systems, and, furthermore, we explored AIE active fluorescent material as a building block in supramolecular chemistry. Herein, we focus on various AIE active molecules such as tetraphenylethylene, AIE-active polymer, quantum dots, AIE active metal-organic framework and triphenylamine, not only in terms of their synthetic routes but also we outline their applications. Finally, we summarize our view of the construction and application of AIE-active molecules, which thus inspiring young researchers to explore new ideas, innovations, and develop the field of supramolecular chemistry in years to come.

Abstract
Porous silica materials are often used for drug delivery. However, systems for simultaneous delivery of multiple drugs are scarce. Here we show that anisotropic and amphiphilic dumbbell core-shell silica microparticles with chemically selective environments can entrap and release two drugs simultaneously. The dumbbells consist of a large dense lobe and a smaller hollow hemisphere. Electron microscopy images show that the shells of both parts have mesoporous channels. In a simple etching process, the properly adjusted stirring speed and the application of ammonium fluoride as etching agent determine the shape and the surface anisotropy of the particles. The surface of the dense lobe and the small hemisphere differ in their zeta potentials consistent with differences in dye and drug entrapment. Confocal Raman microscopy and spectroscopy show that the two polyphenols curcumin (Cur) and quercetin (QT) accumulate in different compartments of the particles. The overall drug entrapment efficiency of Cur plus QT is high for the amphiphilic particles but differs widely between Cur and QT compared to controls of core-shell silica microspheres and uniformly charged dumbbell microparticles. Furthermore, Cur and QT loaded microparticles show different cancer cell inhibitory activities. The highest activity is detected for the dual drug loaded amphiphilic microparticles in comparison to the controls. In the long term, amphiphilic particles may open up new strategies for drug delivery.

Abstract
The existence of cancer stem cells (CSCs) poses a major obstacle for the success of current cancer therapies, especially the fact that non-CSCs can spontaneously turn into CSCs, which lead to the failure of the treatment and tumor relapse. Therefore, it is very important to develop effective strategies for the eradication of the CSCs. In this work, we have developed a CSCs-specific targeted, retinoic acid (RA)-loaded gold nanostars-dendritic polyglycerol (GNSs-dPG) nanoplatform for the efficient eradication of CSCs. The nanocomposites possess good biocompatibility and exhibit effective CSCs-specific multivalent targeted capability due to hyaluronic acid (HA) decorated on the multiple attachment sites of the bioinert dendritic polyglycerol (dPG). With the help of CSCs differentiation induced by RA, the self-renewal of breast CSCs and tumor growth were suppressed by the high therapeutic efficacy of photothermal therapy (PTT) in a synergistic inhibitory manner. Moreover, the stemness gene expression and CSC-driven tumorsphere formation were significantly diminished. In addition, the in vivo tumor growth and CSCs were also effectively eliminated, which indicated superior anticancer activity, effective CSCs suppression, and prevention of relapse. Taken together, we developed a CSCs-specific targeted, RA-loaded GNSs-dPG nanoplatform for the targeted eradication of CSCs and for preventing the relapse.

Abstract
Due to the theragnostic potential of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), these were extensively investigated as a novel approach to improve clinical outcomes. Boasting an impressive array of formulations and modifications, MSNs demonstrate significant in vivo efficacy when used to identify or treat myriad malignant diseases in preclinical models. As MSNs continue transitioning into clinical trials, a thorough understanding of the characteristics of effective MSNs is necessary. This review highlights recent discoveries and advances in MSN understanding and technology. Specific focus is given to cancer theragnostic approaches using MSNs. Characteristics of MSNs such as size, shape, and surface properties are discussed in relation to effective nanomedicine practice and projected clinical efficacy. Additionally, tumor-targeting options used with MSNs are presented with extensive discussion on active-targeting molecules. Methods for decreasing MSN toxicity, improving site-specific delivery, and controlling release of loaded molecules are further explained. Challenges facing the field and translation to clinical environments are presented alongside potential avenues for continuing investigations.

Abstract
Hyperbranched polymers (HBPs), such as hyperbranched polyglycerols (HPGs) with a dendritic configuration, have been recognized for their excellent biocompatibility and multifunctionalization. HPGs have been studied for use in the delivery diagnostic, imaging and therapeutic molecules in the area of nanobiomedicine. They show superior characteristics to linear polymers and dendrimers, such as compact structure, a simple manufacturing process with easy functionalization ability, low viscosity, and high stability. Owing to these advantages, HPGs are now considered promising carriers for drug delivery, diagnostics, imaging, and theranostics applications for cancer treatment. In this review, we also discuss safety aspects of HPG-based nanoformulations in various animal models and the clinical translation status of such polymers for real-time applications.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) of cancer stem cells (CSCs) is a major hurdle to chemotherapy, and it is very important to develop CSCs-specific targeted nanocarriers for the treatment of drug resistant CSCs. In this work, we developed CSCs-specific targeted mSiO2-dPG nanocarriers simultaneous delivery chemotherapy drug DOX along with the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitor tariquidar (Tar) for enhanced chemotherapy to overcome MDR in breast CSCs. The mSiO2-dPG nanocarriers possess a high loading capability, excellent pH stimuli-responsive performance, and good biocompatibility. With the help of CSCs-specific targeting and P-gp inhibitor Tar, the accumulation of DOX delivered by the mSiO2-dPG nanocarriers could be greatly increased in drug resistant three-dimensional mammosphere of breast CSCs, and the chemotherapeutic efficacy against breast CSCs was enhanced. Moreover, the expression of stemness-associated gene and tumorspheres' formation ability was also significantly suppressed, which indicates the excellent capability for overcoming MDR of breast CSCs. Taken together, we developed a CSCs-specific targeted mSiO2-dPG nanocarriers for co-delivery DOX and Tar, which provide a promising approach to effectively eliminate the CSCs and overcome the MDR of breast CSCs.

Abstract
A novel nanocarrier based-on hollow mesoporous carbon nanospheres (HMCNs) with primary amines on its surface, a large cavity, and good hydrophilicity was synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction. The primary amine functionalities on the mesoporous carbon were used as the initiation sites for growing poly (epichlorohydrin) (PCH) chains. The chlorine groups in the side chain of PCH were replaced with imidazole as the pendant groups. Calcium chloride (CaCl2) was applied as a capping agent. The coordination bonding was formed between pendant imidazole groups and calcium ions. Doxorubicin (DOX) was selected as a model of hydrophilic anticancer drug and was loaded onto the nanocarrier and released through the cleavage of the pH-sensitive coordination bonding. The gating mechanism enables the nanocarrier to store and release the calcium ions and the DOX molecules trapped in the pores. MTT assay toward HeLa cells indicated that the nanocarrier had low toxicity because of the surface modification with the oxygen-rich polymer. The cellular uptake of the pH-sensitive nanocarrier for HeLa cancer cell lines was confirmed by CLSM images and flow cytometry. So, the novel pH-sensitive nanocarrier can be applicable to carry and release both DOX drug and calcium ions for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Among a variety of inorganic-based nanomaterials, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have several attractive features for application as a delivery system, due to their high surface areas, large pore volumes, uniform and tunable pore sizes, high mechanical stability, and a great diversity of surface functionalization options. We developed novel hybrid MSNs composed of a mesoporous silica nanostructure core and a pH-responsive polymer shell. The polymer shell was prepared by RAFT polymerization of 2-(diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate (pKa ~6.5), using a hybrid grafting approach. The hybrid nanoparticles have diameters of ca. 100 nm at pH < 6.5 and ca. 60 nm at pH > 6.5. An excellent control of cargo release is achieved by the combined effect of electrostatic interaction of the cargo with the charged silica and the extended cationic polymer chains at low pH, and the reduction of electrostatic attraction with a simultaneous collapse of the polymer chains to a globular conformation at higher pH. The system presents a very low (almost null) release rate at acidic pH values and a large release rate at basic pH, resulting from the squeezing-out effect of the coil-to-globule transition in the polymer shell.

Abstract
Combination therapy as a novel strategy with the combination of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy (photothermal-chemotherapy) has aroused the tremendously increasing interest owing to the synergistic therapeutic effect on destroying cancer cells because the hyperthermia generated from photothermal therapy can promote drug delivery into tumors, which would highly increase therapeutic efficacy as compared to those sole treatments. Herein, we fabricated a novel nanomaterial-based carrier composed of gold nanorods (GNRs), polypyrrole (PPy), and mesoporous silica to form GNRs/PPy/m-SiO2 core/shell hybrids. After loading the anticancer drug of doxorubicin (DOX), the photothermal effect and the drug-release behavior of GNRs/PPy@m-SiO2-DOX hybrids were investigated. The in vitro and in vivo near-infrared (NIR) photothermal-chemotherapy were also revealed. The results indicated that the NIR-induced photothermal effect was beneficial to promote the release of the drug. In addition, combination therapy demonstrated the enhanced synergistic efficacy and excellent treatment efficacy for cancer therapy.

Abstract
In the field of modern nanomedicine, ZnO nanoparticles were considered as an emerging candidate for drug delivery because of their inherent biocompatibility and stability. However, the poor dispersibility in a physiological medium obstructed their clinic applications. In this paper, the red fluorescence ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized, using a facile chemical method of polyol in boiling trimethylene glycol (TREG) with zinc acetate. The as-synthesized ZnO nanoparticles were first time grafted with PG layer through ring-opening polymerization of glycidol (ZnO-PG). As calculated from the TGA data, the weight ratio of the grafted PG was about 68 wt%. Then, the ZnO-PG engineered to conjugate with arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) peptide by stepwise organic reactions. Finally, anticancer drugs Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) was immobilized on ZnO-PG-RGD (approximately 21.8 ± 0.9 nm) to form ZnO-PG-RGD/DOX. The drug release percentage reaches 70.6% within 48 h under pH 5.2, which was more than 3-fold higher than that pH 7.4. The properties of ZnO nanoparticles and its derivatives were detected by power XRD, TEM, EDS, FTIR, TGA, DLS, Zeta potential and UV. The grafted PG layer not only largely enhanced the dispersibility, but also inhibited ZnO nanoparticles from the uptake by U87MG and Hela cells. In contrast, ZnO-PG-RGD was selectively taken up by U87MG, not Hela cells, demonstrating an obvious targeting property. When ZnO-PG-RGD/DOX was used, U87MG cells showed specificity damaged compared with Hela cells. Thus, functionalized ZnO nanoparticle was a promising nanomaterial in cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Aim: Smart mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with mixed polymeric shell (MS-MSNs) were prepared to realize controlled encapsulation and responsive delivery of anticancer drugs. Materials & methods: Two kinds of polymers, including nonthermoresponsive poly(ethylene glycol) and thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide), were grafted onto the outlets of the MSNs through acidic liable Schiff base bonds. Results: Poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) chains could control the release rate of drugs through phase transition, while poly(ethylene glycol) chains could maintain the colloid stability of MSNs. Drugs can be released through the gradual hydrolysis of Schiff base bonds in tumor acidic environment. Conclusion: The MS-MSNs gave consideration to both the responsiveness and stability of carriers, and could realize the release of drugs as much as possible in tumor tissues.

Abstract
The application of nanotechnology to medicine constitutes a major field of research nowadays. In particular, the use of mesoporous silica and carbon nanoparticles has attracted the attention of numerous researchers due to their unique properties, especially when applied to cancer treatment. Many strategies based on stimuli-responsive nanocarriers have been developed to control the drug release and avoid premature release. Here, we focus on the use of the subtle changes of pH between healthy and diseased areas along the body to trigger the release of the cargo. In this review, different approximations of pH-responsive systems are considered: those based on the use of the host-guest interactions between the nanocarriers and the drugs, those based on the hydrolysis of acid-labile bonds and those based on supramolecular structures acting as pore capping agents.
