Abstract
Cancer cells typically display redox imbalance compared with normal cells due to increased metabolic rate, accumulated mitochondrial dysfunction, elevated cell signaling, and accelerated peroxisomal activities. This redox imbalance may regulate gene expression, alter protein stability, and modulate existing cellular programs, resulting in inefficient treatment modalities. Therapeutic strategies targeting intra- or extracellular redox states of cancer cells at varying state of progression may trigger programmed cell death if exceeded a certain threshold, enabling therapeutic selectivity and overcoming cancer resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Nanotechnology provides new opportunities for modulating redox state in cancer cells due to their excellent designability and high reactivity. Various nanomaterials are widely researched to enhance highly reactive substances (free radicals) production, disrupt the endogenous antioxidant defense systems, or both. Here, the physiological features of redox imbalance in cancer cells are described and the challenges in modulating redox state in cancer cells are illustrated. Then, nanomaterials that regulate redox imbalance are classified and elaborated upon based on their ability to target redox regulations. Finally, the future perspectives in this field are proposed. It is hoped this review provides guidance for the design of nanomaterials-based approaches involving modulating intra- or extracellular redox states for cancer therapy, especially for cancers resistant to radiotherapy or chemotherapy, etc.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide (CO) gas therapy has shown great potential as a very promising approach in the ongoing fight against tumors. However, delivering unstable CO to the tumor site and safely releasing it for maximum efficacy still have unsatisfactory outcomes. In this study, we've developed nanotheranostics (IN-DPPCO NPs) based on conjugated polymer IN-DPP and carbon monoxide (CO) carrier polymer mPEG(CO) for photothermal augmented gas therapy. The IN-DPPCO NPs can release CO with the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) overexpressed in the tumor microenvironment. Meanwhile, IN-DPPCO NPs exhibit strong absorption in the near-infrared window, showing a high photothermal conversion efficiency of up to 41.5% under 808 nm laser irradiation. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that these nanotheranostics exhibit good biocompatibility. Furthermore, the synergistic CO/photothermal therapy shows enhanced therapeutic efficacy compared to gas therapy alone. This work highlights the great promise of conjugated polymer nanoparticles as versatile nanocarriers for spatiotemporally controlled and on-demand delivery of gaseous messengers to achieve precision cancer theranostics.

[PMID: 37536496 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.07.055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 07/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/05/2023]
Abstract
NO gas therapy is a supplementary approach for tumor treatment due to the advantages of minimal invasion, little drug resistance, low side effect and amplified efficacy. l-Arginine (L-Arg), a natural NO source with good biocompatibility, can release NO under the stimulation of H2O2 in tumor microenvironment. However, the conventional l-Arg delivery systems via noncovalent loading usually lead to inevitable premature leakage of nano-cargos during blood circulation. In this work, an efficient l-Arg self-delivery supramolecular nanodrug (SDSND) for tumor treatment is demonstrated by combining Mannich reaction and π-π stacking. l-Arg links to (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) with the assistance of formaldehyde through Mannich reaction, and then assembles into nanometer-sized particles via π-π stacking. The guanidine group of l-Arg and the phenolic hydroxyl groups of EGCG are preserved in the SDSNDs, which allows for accomplishing gas therapy by provoking tumor cell apoptosis and combining with EGCG to amplify apoptosis, respectively. In addition, the SDSNDs exhibit high biocompatibility and avoid the premature leakage of l-Arg in blood circulation, providing an alternative l-Arg delivery system for NO gas therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: NO gas therapy has attracted emerging interest in tumor treatment. However, the controlled NO release and the avoidance of premature leakage of NO donors remain challenging. In this work, L-Arginine (L-Arg) self-delivery supramolecular nanodrug for efficient tumor therapy is demonstrated through the Mannich reaction of L-Arg, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and formaldehyde. Stimulated by tumor microenvironment, the guanidine groups of L-Arg allow for accomplishing NO release and thus provoking tumor cell apoptosis. The nanodrug also avoids the premature leakage of L-Arg in blood circulation. Moreover, the preserved phenolic hydroxyl groups of EGCG combine with L-Arg to amplify apoptosis. The nanodrug exhibits high biocompatibility and good therapeutic effect, providing an alternative L-Arg delivery system for NO gas therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Photodynamic therapy (PDT) features high biocompatibility and high spatiotemporal selectivity, showing a great potential in glioblastoma (GBM) treatment. However, its application was restricted by the poor therapeutic efficacy and side effect. RESULTS In this study, a therapeutic nanoplatform (UCNPs@Ce6/3HBQ@CM) with combination of PDT and CO therapy was constructed, in which a photoCORM and a photosensitizer were loaded onto the surface of upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) functioning as photon transducer. Benefitting from NIR excitation and multicolor emission of UCNPs, the penetration depth of excitation light is enhanced and meanwhile simultaneous generation of CO and ROS in tumor site can be achieved. The as-prepared nanocomposite possessed an elevated therapeutic efficiency with the assistance of CO through influencing mitochondrial respiration and depleting ATP, accompanying with the reduced inflammatory responses. By wrapping a homologous cell membrane, the nanocomposite can target GBM and accumulate in the tumor site, affording a powerful tool for precise and efficient treatment of GBM. CONCLUSION This therapeutic nanoplatform UCNPs@Ce6/3HBQ@CM, which combines PDT and CO therapy enables precise and efficient treatment of refractory glioblastoma.

Abstract
Administrating pharmaceutic agents efficiently to achieve the therapeutic effect is the aim of all drug delivery techniques. Recent drug delivery systems aim to deliver high doses of drugs to disease sites accurately while maximizing therapeutic effects and minimizing potential side effects. Key approaches apply image guidance techniques for the quantification of drug biodistribution and pharmacokinetic parameters during drug delivery. This review highlights recent research on image-guided drug delivery systems based on photoacoustic imaging, which has been attracting attention for its non-invasiveness, non-ionizing radiation, and real-time imaging functions. Photoacoustic imaging based on the photothermal conversion efficiency of agents can be easily combined with various phototherapeutics, making them highly suitable for drug delivery therapy platforms. Here, we summarize and compare the characteristics of various types of photoacoustic imaging systems, focus on contrast-enhanced photoacoustic imaging and controlled release of therapeutics in drug delivery systems for synergistic therapies.

Abstract
Single treatment often faces the problem that it cannot completely eradicate tumor and inhibit the tumor metastasis. In order to overcome this shortcoming, multi-modal tumor treatment has attracted widespread attention. In the present article, based on ascorbyl palmitate (PA) and l-arginine (l-Arg), a multifunctional nanocarrier is designed for synergetic treatment of tumor with photothermal and nitric oxide (NO) gas therapy. Firstly, PA and l-Arg were self-assembled to form novel functional micelles, PL, with high biosafety using electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding. The functional micelles could self-catalyze to produce NO at the tumor site. Then, Ag2S quantum dots having fluorescence imaging and photothermal properties were encapsulated to obtain the nanocarrier, A@PL. The results show that A@PL had a hydrated size of around 78 nm and presented good stability within 30 d. Moreover, in vitro studies indicate that it was efficient with regards to NO self-generating capacity, whereas the photothermal conversion efficiency was as high as 34% under near-infrared light irradiation. The cytotoxicity results show that, when the concentration of A@PL was as high as 2 mM, the survival rate of 3 T3 cells was still 78.23%, proving that the probe has good safety characteristics. Fluorescence imaging results show that its maximum enrichment can be achieved at the tumor site after tail vein injection for 3 h, and out of the body after 24 h, indicating good internal circulation. The in vivo studies show that the rate of inhibition of tumor using the nanocarrier was as high as 98%, and almost overcame the problem of tumor recurrence caused by single treatment, thus presenting a significant tumor treatment effect. This new multifunctional nanocarrier with self-catalytic production of NO provides a new idea for the efficient treatment of tumors.

Abstract
Isotropic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) can generate a plasma-plasma interaction when aggregating and can also produce ideal photothermal effects. Some studies have designed ATP-responsive nanodrug delivery systems by taking advantage of the differences between internal and external ATP in tumor cells, but few studies have focused on the photothermal effects of ATP-induced AuNP aggregation in tumors. Here, a triple-helix probe (THP) molecular switch and MUC1 aptamer-functionalized AuNPs were constructed for fluorescence imaging analysis and photothermal therapy (PTT). The MUC1 aptamer guides THP-AuNP targeting in tumor cells, followed by the high concentration of ATP inducing structural changes in triple-helix probes and causing the intracellular aggregation of AuNPs, which cannot escape from the tumor site, enabling tumor imaging while performing PTT. Therefore, the designed THP-AuNPs have promising applications in fluorescence imaging and PTT.

Abstract
Although multimethod therapy has shown great promise for effective cancer treatment, it is still a great challenge to develop simple and effective strategies to construct multifunctional therapeutic reagents. According to the characteristics of the tumor microenvironment, such as a mild acidic environment and overexpression of H2O2, an intelligent therapeutic reagent with photoacoustic (PA) imaging-guided photothermal therapy, chemodynamic therapy, and in situ chemotherapy was constructed by simply loading disulfiram (DSF) in a Cu-based porous metal-organic framework (HKUST-1). The resultant material DFS@HKUST-1 shows near-infrared adsorption around 600-900 nm and effective photoacoustic imaging properties and photothermal conversion efficiency upon 808 nm irradiation. Besides, after DFS@HKUST-1 is enriched in the tumor, the acidic environment of the tumor will slowly trigger the decomposition of HKUST-1, leading to the release of Cu2+ ions to react with DSF and endogenous H2O2 to generate the Cu/DSF complex (CuET) and cytotoxic •OH for chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy, respectively. Therefore, DFS@HKUST-1 can serve as a promising tumor microenvironment response therapeutic reagent for photoacoustic imaging-guided multimethod therapy.
