Abstract
Accurate diagnosis of highly aggressive and deadly tumors is essential for effective treatment and improved patient outcomes, and microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as crucial biomarkers for their roles in tumor initiation, progression, and metastasis. Herein, we present an on-site visualization colorimetric assay for tumor-associated miRNAs using ruthenium nanoparticle decorated titanium dioxide nanoribbon (Ru@TiO2) as a peroxidase-like (POD) nanozyme. Remarkably, the Ru@TiO2 nanozyme can catalyze the oxidation of chromogenic substrates through its POD-like activity, which is effectively inhibited by pyrophosphate generated during the rolling circle amplification process, thereby enabling miRNA detection through a visible colorimetric readout. This approach provides a highly sensitive and specificity assay for miRNAs in diluted human serum with a detection limit of 100 pM. It shows great potential for clinical diagnostics and biological research, offering a promising tool for early cancer diagnosis and molecular diagnostics.

Abstract
Nucleic acid nanomaterials with good biocompatibility, biodegradability, and programmability have important applications in biomedical field. Nucleic acid nanomaterials are usually combined with some inorganic nanomaterials to improve their biological stability. However, undefined toxic side effects of composite nanocarriers hamper their application in vivo. As a nanotool capable of avoiding potential biotoxicity, nanostructures composed entirely of DNA oligonucleotides have been rapidly developed in the field of biomedicine in recent years. Rolling circle amplification (RCA) is an isothermal enzymatic nucleic acid amplification technology for large-scale production of periodic DNA/RNA with pre-designed desirable structures and functions. RCA products with different functional parts can be customized by changing the sequence of the circular template, thereby generating complex multifunctional DNA nanostructures, such as DNA nanowire, nanoflower, origami, nanotube, nanoribbon, etc. More importantly, RCA products as nonnicked building blocks can enhance the biostability of DNA nanostructures, especially in vivo. These RCA products-based nucleic acid nanostructures can be used as scaffolds or nanocarriers to interact or load with metal nanoparticles, proteins, lipids, cationic polymers, therapeutic nucleic acids or drugs, etc. This paper reviews the assembly strategies of RCA based DNA nanostructures with different shape and their applications in biosensing, bioimaging and biomedicine. Finally, the development prospects of the nucleic acid nanomaterials in clinical diagnosis and treatment of diseases are described. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: As a nanotool capable of avoiding potential biotoxicity, nanostructures composed entirely of DNA oligonucleotides have been rapidly developed in the field of biomedicine in recent years. Rolling circle amplification (RCA) is an isothermal enzymatic nucleic acid amplification technology for large-scale production of periodic DNA/RNA with pre-designed desirable structures and functions. This paper reviews the construction of various shapes of pure nucleic acid nanomaterials based on RCA products and their applications in biosensing, bioimaging and biomedicine. This will promote the development of biocompatible DNA nanovehicles and their further application in living systems, including bioimaging, molecular detection, disease diagnosis and drug delivery, finally producing a significant impact in the field of nanotechnology and nanomedicine.

Abstract
Ligands, mostly binding to proteins to form complexes and catalyze chemical reactions, can serve as drug and probe molecules, as well as sensing elements. DNA nanotechnology can integrate the high editability of DNA nanostructures and the biological activity of ligands into functionalized DNA nanostructures in a manner of controlled ligand stoichiometry, type, and arrangement, which provides significant advantages for targeted therapeutics and diagnostics. As therapeutic agents, multiple- and multivalent-ligands functionalized DNA nanostructures increase ligand-receptor affinity and activate multivalent ligand-receptor interactions, enabling improved regulation of cell signaling and enhanced control of cell behavior. As diagnostic agents, multiple ligands interaction via DNA nanostructures endows DNA nanosensors with high sensitivity and excellent signal transduction capability. Herein, we review the principles and advantages of using DNA nanostructures to manipulate ligands for targeted therapeutics and diagnostics and provide future perspectives.

Abstract
The smart strategy of cancer cells to bypass the caspase-dependent apoptotic pathway has led to the discovery of novel anti-cancer approaches including the targeting of lysosomes. Recent discoveries observed that lysosomes perform far beyond just recycling of cellular waste, as these organelles are metabolically very active and mediate several signalling pathways to sense the cellular metabolic status. These organelles also play a significant role in mediating the immune system functions. Thus, direct or indirect lysosome-targeting with different drugs can be considered a novel therapeutic approach in different disease including cancer. Recently, some anticancer lysosomotropic drugs (eg, nortriptyline, siramesine, desipramine) and their nanoformulations have been engineered to specifically accumulate within these organelles. These drugs can enhance lysosome membrane permeabilization (LMP) or disrupt the activity of resident enzymes and protein complexes, like v-ATPase and mTORC1. Other anticancer drugs like doxorubicin, quinacrine, chloroquine and DQ661 have also been used which act through multi-target points. In addition, autophagy inhibitors, ferroptosis inducers and fluorescent probes have also been used as novel theranostic agents. Several lysosome-specific drug nanoformulations like mixed charge and peptide conjugated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), Au-ZnO hybrid NPs, TPP-PEG-biotin NPs, octadecyl-rhodamine-B and cationic liposomes, etc. have been synthesized by diverse methods. These nanoformulations can target cathepsins, glucose-regulated protein 78, or other lysosome specific proteins in different cancers. The specific targeting of cancer cell lysosomes with drug nanoformulations is quite recent and faces tremendous challenges like toxicity concerns to normal tissues, which may be resolved in future research. The anticancer applications of these nanoformulations have led them up to various stages of clinical trials. Here in this review article, we present the recent updates about the lysosome ultrastructure, its cross-talk with other organelles, and the novel strategies of targeting this organelle in tumor cells as a recent innovative approach of cancer management.

Abstract
Isothermal nucleic acid amplification strategies have been combined with nanotechnology for advanced biosensing, material design, and biomedical applications. However, merging phenomena and materials of different nanoscales with the aim of exploiting all their benefits at once has remained a challenging endeavor. Here, we exemplify the various problems one can encounter when combining the nanodimensions of lanthanide complexes (∼2 nm), Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET, ∼5 nm), quantum dots (QDs, ∼20 nm), and rolling circle amplification (RCA, ∼250 nm) into a single microRNA biosensor and how these challenges can be overcome. Six different approaches, including simple FRET-RCA, enzyme-digesting FRET-RCA, and FRET-hyperbranched-RCA were investigated. We demonstrated specific miR-21 detection with 80 fM limit of detection and multiplexing capability with FRET from a Tb complex to different QDs. The detailed view on the various complex multi-nanodimensional assay systems elucidated the limited clinical translation of such sophisticated multicomponent nanobiosensors.

Abstract
Probing endogenous molecular profiles is of fundamental importance to understand cellular function and processes. Despite the promise of programmable nucleic-acid-based aptasensors across the breadth of biomolecular detection, target-responsive aptasensors enabling intracellular detection are as of yet infrequently realized. Several challenges remain, including the difficulties in quantification/normalization of quencher-based intensiometric signals, stability issues of the probe architecture, and complex sensor operations often necessitating extensive structural modeling. Here, the biomimetic crystallization-empowered self-assembly of a tumor-targetable DNA-inorganic hybrid nanocomposite aptasensor is presented, which enables Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based quantitative interpretation of changes in the cellular target abundance. Leveraging the design programmability and high-throughput fabrication of rolling circle amplification-driven DNA nanoarchitecture, this designer platform offers a method to self-assemble a robust nanosensor from a multifunctionality-encoded template that includes a cell-targeting aptamer, a ratiometric aptasensor, and a cholesterol-decorating element. Taking prostate cancer cells and intracellular adenosine triphosphate molecules as a model system, a synergistic effect in the targeted delivery by cholesterol and aptamers, and the feasibility of quantitative intracellular aptasensing are demonstrated. It is envisioned that this approach provides a highly generalizable strategy across wide-ranging target systems toward a biologically deliverable nanosensor that enables quantitative monitoring of the abundance of endogenous biomolecules.

Abstract
We developed an electrochemical aptasensor based on cocoon-like DNA nanostructures as signal tags for highly sensitive and selective detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7. The stable cocoon-like DNA nanostructures synthesized by the rolling circle amplification reaction were loaded with hemin as electrochemical signal tags to amplify the signals. The single-stranded DNA capture probes were modified on the surface of a Au electrode via a Au-S bond. The E. coli O157:H7 specific aptamer and capture probe formed double-stranded DNA structures on the Au electrode. The aptamer preferentially bound to E. coli O157:H7, causing the dissociation of some aptamer-capture probes and releasing some capture probes. Subsequently, the free capture probes hybridized with the DNA nanostructures through the cDNA sequence. Under optimal conditions, the change in the electrochemical signal was proportional to the logarithm of E. coli O157:H7 concentration, from 10 to 106 CFU mL-1, and the detection limit was estimated to be 10 CFU mL-1. The electrochemical aptasensor could be readily used to detect various pathogenic bacteria and to provide a new method of early diagnosis of pathogenic microorganisms.

Abstract
The comprehensive understanding and proper use of supramolecular interactions have become critical for the development of functional materials, and so is the biomedical application of nucleic acids (NAs). Relatively rare attention has been paid to hydrophobic interaction compared with hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction of NAs. However, hydrophobic interaction shows some unique properties, such as high tunability for application interest, minimal effect on NA functionality, and sensitivity to external stimuli. Therefore, the widespread use of hydrophobic interaction has promoted the evolution of NA-based biomaterials in higher-order self-assembly, drug/gene-delivery systems, and stimuli-responsive systems. Herein, the recent progress of NA-based biomaterials whose fabrications or properties are highly determined by hydrophobic interactions is summarized. 1) The hydrophobic interaction of NA itself comes from the accumulation of base-stacking forces, by which the NAs with certain base compositions and chain lengths show properties similar to thermal-responsive polymers. 2) In conjugation with hydrophobic molecules, NA amphiphiles show interesting self-assembly structures with unique properties in many new biosensing and therapeutic strategies. 3) The working-mechanisms of some NA-based complex materials are also dependent on hydrophobic interactions. Moreover, in recent attempts, NA amphiphiles have been applied in organizing macroscopic self-assembly of DNA origami and controlling the cell-cell interactions.

Abstract
Nucleic acid nanostructures have attracted significant interest as potential therapeutic and diagnostic platforms due to their intrinsic biocompatibility and biodegradability, structural and functional diversity, and compatibility with various chemistries for modification and stabilization. Among the fabrication approaches for such structures, the rolling circle techniques have emerged as particularly promising, producing morphologically round, flower-shaped nucleic acid particles: typically hybrid composites of long nucleic acid strands and inorganic magnesium pyrophosphate (Mg2PPi). These constructs are known to form via anisotropic nucleic acid-driven crystallization in a sequence-independent manner, rendering monodisperse and densely packed RNA or DNA-inorganic composites. However, it still remains to fully explore how flexible polymer-like RNA or DNA strands (acting as biomolecular additives) mediate the crystallization process of Mg2PPi and affect the structure and properties of the product crystals. To address this, we closely examined nanoscale details to mesoscopic features of Mg2PPi/DNA hybrid composites fabricated by two approaches, namely rolling circle amplification (RCA)-based in situ synthesis and long synthetic DNA-mediated crystallization. Similar to the DNA constructs fabricated by RCA, the rapid crystallization of Mg2PPi was retarded on a short-range order when we precipitated the crystals in the presence of presynthesized long DNA, which resulted in effective incorporation of biomolecular additives such as DNA and enzymes. These findings further provide a more feasible way to encapsulate bioactive enzymes within DNA constructs compared to in situ RCA-mediated synthesis, i.e., by not only protecting them from possible denaturation under the reaction conditions but also preventing nonselective association of proteins arising from the RCA reaction mixtures.
