Abstract
Exploring highly efficient ultrasound-triggered catalysts is pivotal for various areas. Herein, we presented that Ba2+ doped brookite TiO2 nanorod (TiO2: Ba) with polarization-induced charge separation is a candidate. The replacement of Ba2+ for Ti4+ not only induced significant lattice distortion to induce polarization but also created oxygen vacancy defects for facilitating the charge separation, leading to high-efficiency reactive oxygen species (ROS) evolution in the piezo-catalytic processes. Furthermore, the piezocatalytic ability to degrade dye wastewater demonstrates a rate constant of 0.172 min-1 and achieves a 100 % antibacterial rate at a low dose for eliminating E. coli. This study advances that doping can induce piezoelectricity and reveals that lattice distortion-induced polarization and vacancy defects engineering can improve ROS production, which might impact applications such as water disinfection and sonodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Piezocatalytic tumor therapy is an emerging reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating therapeutic approach that relies on piezoelectric polarization under ultrasound (US) irradiation. Optimizing ROS production is a primary objective for enhancing treatment efficiency. In this study, oxygen-vacancy-rich Pd-integrated black barium titanate (BTO) nanoparticles are rationally engineered to boost the ROS generation efficiency via the introduction of Pd. Pd-catalyzed hydrogenation at low temperatures narrows the bandgap of BTO and reduces the recombination rate of electron-hole pairs. Furthermore, Pd has dual-enzyme-mimicking characteristics, including peroxidase- and catalase-mimicking activities, which further heighten the therapeutic efficacy by enhancing ROS production and reversing the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. Importantly, the dual enzymatic activity of Pd can be amplified by multiple redox processes sparked by the piezoelectric potential under US stimulation, resulting in bilaterally enhanced multienzyme-piezoelectric synergetic therapy. In vitro and in vivo results confirm high tumor inhibition in murine breast cancer cells. This work stresses the critical effects of defect engineering-optimized piezodynamic tumor therapy.

Abstract
Biomolecular piezoelectric materials are envisioned for advanced biomedical applications for their robust piezoelectricity, biocompatibility, and flexibility. Here, we report the piezoelectric property of amyloid fibrils derived from three distinct proteins: lysozyme, insulin, and amyloid-β. We found that piezoelectric properties are dependent on the extent of the β-sheet structure and the extent of fibril anisotropy. We have observed the piezoelectric constant value in the range of 24-42 pm/V for fibrils made of lysozyme/insulin/amyloid-β, and for the sheet/bundle-like structure of lysozyme aggregates, the value becomes 62 pm/V. These piezoelectric constant values are 4-10 times higher than the native lysozyme/insulin/amyloid proteins. Computational studies show that extension of the β-sheet structure produces an asymmetric arrangement of charges (in creating dipole moment) and mechanical stress induces an aligned orientation of these dipoles that results in a piezoelectric effect. It is shown that these piezoelectric fibrils can harvest mechanical as well as ultrasound-based energy to produce a voltage of up to 1 V and a current of up to 13 nA. These fibrils are employed for reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation under ultrasound exposure and utilized for ultrasonic degradation of organic pollutants or killing of cancer cells via intracellular ROS generation under ultrasound exposure. Our findings demonstrate that the piezoelectric property of protein fibrils has potential for wireless therapeutic applications and may have physiological roles that are yet to be explored.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a crucial role in regulating the metabolism of tumor growth, metastasis, death and other biological processes. ROS-based nanodynamic therapies (NDTs) are becoming attractive due to non-invasive, low side effects and tumor-specific advantages. NDTs have rapidly developed into numerous branches, such as photodynamic therapy, chemodynamic therapy, sonodynamic therapy and so on. However, the complexity of the tumor microenvironment and the limitations of existing sensitizers have greatly restricted the therapeutic effects of NDTs, which heavily rely on ROS levels. To address the limitations of NDTs, various strategies have been developed to increase ROS yield, which is an urgent aspect for the positive development of NDTs. In this review, the nanodynamic potentiation strategies in terms of unique properties and universalities of NDTs are comprehensively outlined. We mainly summarize the current dilemmas faced by each NDT and the respective solutions. Meanwhile, the NDTs universalities-based potentiation strategies and NDTs-based combined treatments are elaborated. Finally, we conclude with a discussion of the key issues and challenges faced in the development and clinical transformation of NDTs.

Abstract
Using photons to drive chemical reactions has become an increasingly important field of chemistry. Plasmonic materials can provide a means to introduce the energy necessary for nucleation and growth of nanoparticles by efficiently converting visible and infrared light to heat. Moreover, the formation of crystalline nanoparticles has yet to be included in the extensive list of plasmonic photothermal processes. Herein, we establish a light-assisted colloidal synthesis of iron oxide, silver, and palladium nanoparticles by utilizing silica-encapsulated gold bipyramids as plasmonic heat sources. Our work shows that the silica surface chemistry and localized thermal hotspot generated by the plasmonic nanoparticles play crucial roles in the formation mechanism, enabling nucleation and growth at temperatures considerably lower than conventional heating. Additionally, the photothermal method is extended to anisotropic geometries and can be applied to obtain intricate assemblies inaccessible otherwise. This study enables photothermally heated nanoparticle synthesis in solution through the plasmonic effect and demonstrates the potential of this methodology.

Abstract
This perspective article emphasizes the significant role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in in vivo remedial therapy of various diseases and complications, capitalizing on their potential reactivity. Among the various influencers, herein, piezoelectric materials driven ROS generation activity is primarily considered. Intrinsic non-centrosymmetry of piezoelectric materials makes them suitable for distinct dipole formation in the presence of external mechanical stimuli. Such characteristics prompt the positioning of opposite charged carriers to execute associated redox transformations that effectively participate to generate ROS in the aqueous media of the cell cytoplasm, organelles and nucleus. The immense reactivity of piezoelectric material driven ROS is fostered to terminate cellular toxicity or curtail tumor cell growth, due to their higher specificity. This perspective considers the conjugated performance of piezoelectric materials and ultrasound which can remotely generate electrical charges that promote ROS production for therapeutic application. In particular, a substantial synopsis is provided for the remedial activity of numerous piezocatalytic materials in tumor cell apoptosis, antibacterial treatment, dental care and neurological disorders. Subsequently, the report precisely demonstrates the methods involving various spectrophotometric approaches for the analysis of the ROS. Finally, the key challenges of piezoelectric material-based therapy are discussed and systematic future progress is outlined.

Abstract
Cadmium sulfide (CdS)-decorated, cross-linked melamine-formaldehyde polymer-based nanocomposite (MFP-CdS) has been synthesized. MFP-CdS is utilized here as a photoactive material for the photodegradation of six model organic dyes and their mixture in an aqueous medium in the presence of sunlight. The half-life values from the kinetic study of multiple dyes strongly support the importance of sunlight on the fast degradation of all six dyes compared to bulb light and control (dark) conditions. A comparative 1H NMR analysis of the dyes and their degraded products has been performed to support the breakdown of the aromatic framework of organic dyes using MFP-CdS in sunlight. The mechanisms involved in the photodegradation of dyes have been investigated based on radical trapping studies that support the significant involvement of superoxide radicals along with holes. Moreover, the dye removal efficiency using MFP-CdS from real industrial wastewater samples is evaluated via the external spiking of organic dyes and their mixture in unknown industrial effluents where they showed similar photodegradation results. Based on the high recyclability of MFP-CdS, these are used for multiple cycles.

Abstract
Developing a convenient, efficient and eco-friendly approach for the recovery of U(VI) ion is a key measure to solve the environmental problems arising from the utilization of nuclear energy. Herein, the high efficiency of uranium extraction is realized by the piezo property of perovskite BaTiO3, revealing the intrinsically morphological engineering effect on the piezocatalytic performance. Especially, BaTiO3 nanowires (BTO NWs) exhibit not only an excellent piezocatalytic activity with U(VI) extraction rate of 96.8% in a UO2(NO3)2 aqueous solution compared to 71.3% of BaTiO3 nanoparticles (BTO NPs), but also a promising piezocatalyst for U extraction in a real U-mining wastewater with various pH ranges. Piezo response force microscopy and finite elemental simulation show that the piezo response of BTO NWs is much higher than BTO NPs. Additionally, some factors (pH, various ions, different powers) are explored on piezocatalytic efficiency for U(VI) extraction. The results from electron spin resonance and the charge/radical capture experiments confirm that the active species (e-, •O2-, •OH) stemmed from the piezo induction of BTO NWs and BTO NPs in the piezocatalytic U(VI) reduction process. The present work reveals the structure-performance correlation during piezocatalysis and highlights the crucial role of piezocatalysis in dealing with environmental problems.

Abstract
Electric stimulation has been used in changing the morphology, status, membrane permeability, and life cycle of cells to treat certain diseases such as trauma, degenerative disease, tumor, and infection. To minimize the side effects of invasive electric stimulation, recent studies attempt to apply ultrasound to control the piezoelectric effect of nano piezoelectric material. This method not only generates an electric field but also utilizes the benefits of ultrasound such as non-invasive and mechanical effects. In this review, important elements in the system, piezoelectricity nanomaterial and ultrasound, are first analyzed. Then, we summarize recent studies categorized into five kinds, nervous system diseases treatment, musculoskeletal tissues treatment, cancer treatment, anti-bacteria therapy, and others, to prove two main mechanics under activated piezoelectricity: one is biological change on a cellular level, the other is a piezo-chemical reaction. However, there are still technical problems to be solved and regulation processes to be completed before widespread use. The core problems include how to accurately measure piezoelectricity properties, how to concisely control electricity release through complex energy transfer processes, and a deeper understanding of related bioeffects. If these problems are conquered in the future, piezoelectric nanomaterials activated by ultrasound will provide a new pathway and realize application in disease treatment.

Abstract
Emerging piezocatalysts have demonstrated their remarkable application potential in diverse medical fields. In addition to their ultrahigh catalytic activities, their inherent and unique charge-carrier-releasing properties can be used to initiate various redox catalytic reactions, displaying bright prospects for future medical applications. Triggered by mechanical energy, piezocatalytic materials can release electrons/holes, catalyze redox reactions of substrates, or intervene in biological processes to promote the production of effector molecules for medical purposes, such as decontamination, sterilization, and therapy. Such a medical application of piezocatalysis is termed as piezocatalytic medicine (PCM) herein. To pioneer novel medical technologies, especially therapeutic modalities, this review provides an overview of the state-of-the-art research progress in piezocatalytic medicine. First, the principle of piezocatalysis and the preparation methodologies of piezoelectric materials are introduced. Then, a comprehensive summary of the medical applications of piezocatalytic materials in tumor treatment, antisepsis, organic degradation, tissue repair and regeneration, and biosensing is provided. Finally, the main challenges and future perspectives in piezocatalytic medicine are discussed and proposed, expecting to fuel the development of this emerging scientific discipline.

Abstract
Piezocatalysis is regarded as a fascinating technology for water remediation and possible disease treatment. A high piezoelectric coefficient (d33) is one of the most important parameters to determine piezocatalytic performance, which can be manipulated via phase boundary design. Herein, a novel strategy for excellent piezocatalytic activity in lead-free BaTiO3-based materials via manipulating the multiphase coexistence is proposed. The piezocatalyst of 0.82Ba(Ti0.89Sn0.11)O3-0.18(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (0.82BTS-0.18BCT) with multiphase coexistence is prepared, and a large d33 can be obtained. As a result, 0.82BTS-0.18BCT exhibits excellent piezocatalytic performance for the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB). Furthermore, the removal rate of RhB could reach more than 90% after vibration for 30 min, and the reaction rate constant (k) could reach 0.0706 min-1, which is much superior to that of most other representative perovskite-structured piezoelectric materials. Excellent piezocatalytic performance can be attributed to the strong local ferro-/piezoelectric response induced by the multiphase coexistence, as confirmed by the in situ piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM). Finally, the piezocatalytic degradation mechanism is analyzed systemically and proposed. This work not only provides a high-efficiency piezocatalyst but also sheds light on developing efficient BT-based piezocatalysts by manipulating the multiphase coexistence.

Abstract
Reducing the scavenging capacity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and elevating ROS production are two primary goals of developing novel sonosensitizers for sonodynamic therapy (SDT). Hence, ultrathin 2D Bi2 MoO6 -poly(ethylene glycol) nanoribbons (BMO NRs) are designed as piezoelectric sonosensitizers for glutathione (GSH)-enhanced SDT. In cancer cells, BMO NRs can consume endogenous GSH to disrupt redox homeostasis, and the GSH-activated BMO NRs (GBMO) exhibit an oxygen-deficient structure, which can promote the separation of electron-hole pairs, thereby enhancing the efficiency of ROS production in SDT. The ultrathin GBMO NRs are piezoelectric, in which ultrasonic waves introduce mechanical strain to the nanoribbons, resulting in piezoelectric polarization and band tilting, thus accelerating toxic ROS production. The as-synthesized BMO NRs enable excellent computed tomography imaging of tumors and significant tumor suppression in vitro and in vivo. A piezoelectric Bi2 MoO6 sonosensitizer-mediated two-step enhancement SDT process, which is activated by endogenous GSH and amplified by exogenous ultrasound, is proposed. This process not only provides new options for improving SDT but also broadens the application of 2D piezoelectric materials as sonosensitizers in SDT.

Abstract
Bacterial environmental colonization and subsequent biofilm formation on surfaces represents a significant and alarming problem in various fields, ranging from contamination of medical devices up to safe food packaging. Therefore, the development of surfaces resistant to bacterial colonization is a challenging and actively solved task. In this field, the current promising direction is the design and creation of nanostructured smart surfaces with on-demand activated amicrobial protection. Various surface activation methods have been described recently. In this review article, we focused on the "physical" activation of nanostructured surfaces. In the first part of the review, we briefly describe the basic principles and common approaches of external stimulus application and surface activation, including the temperature-, light-, electric- or magnetic-field-based surface triggering, as well as mechanically induced surface antimicrobial protection. In the latter part, the recent achievements in the field of smart antimicrobial surfaces with physical activation are discussed, with special attention on multiresponsive or multifunctional physically activated coatings. In particular, we mainly discussed the multistimuli surface triggering, which ensures a better degree of surface properties control, as well as simultaneous utilization of several strategies for surface protection, based on a principally different mechanism of antimicrobial action. We also mentioned several recent trends, including the development of the to-detect and to-kill hybrid approach, which ensures the surface activation in a right place at a right time.

Abstract
Nanoparticles are widely used in various biomedical applications as drug delivery carriers, imaging probes, single-molecule tracking/detection probes, artificial chaperones for inhibiting protein aggregation, and photodynamic therapy materials. One key parameter of these applications is the ability of the nanoparticles to enter into the cell cytoplasm, target different subcellular compartments, and control intracellular processes. This is particularly the case because nanoparticles are designed to interact with subcellular components for the required biomedical performance. However, cells are protected from their surroundings by the cell membrane, which exerts strict control over entry of foreign materials. Thus, nanoparticles need to be designed appropriately so that they can readily cross the cell membrane, target subcellular compartments, and control intracellular processes.In the past few decades there have been great advancements in understanding the principles of cellular uptake of foreign materials. In particular, it has been shown that internalization of foreign materials (small molecules, macromolecules, nanoparticles) is size-dependent: endocytotic uptake of materials requires sizes greater than 10 nm, and materials with sizes of 10-100 nm usually enter into cells by energy-dependent endocytosis via biomembrane-coated vesicles. Direct access to the cytosol is limited to very specific conditions, and endosomal escape of material appears to be the most practical approach for intracellular processing.In this Account, we describe how cellular uptake and intracellular processing of nanoscale materials can be controlled by appropriate design of size and surface chemistry. We first describe the cell membrane structure and principles of cellular uptake of foreign materials followed by their subcellular trafficking. Next, we discuss the designed surface chemistry of a 5-50 nm particle that offers preferential lipid-raft/caveolae-mediated endocytosis over clathrin-mediated endocytosis with minimum endosomal/lysosomal trafficking or energy-independent direct cell membrane translocation (without endocytosis) followed by cytosolic delivery without endosomal/lysosomal trafficking. In particular, we emphasize that the zwitterionic-lipophilic surface property of a nanoparticle offers preferential interaction with the lipid raft region of the cell membrane followed by lipid raft uptake, whereas a lower number of affinity biomolecules (<25) on the nanoparticle surface offers caveolae/lipid-raft uptake, while an arginine/guanidinium-terminated surface along with a size of <10 nm offers direct cell membrane translocation. Finally, we discuss how nanoprobes can be designed by adapting these surface chemistry and size preference principles so that they can readily enter into the cell, label different subcellular compartments, and control intracellular processes such as trafficking kinetics, exocytosis, autophagy, amyloid aggregation, and clearance of toxic amyloid aggregates. The Account ends with a Conclusions and Outlook where we discuss a vision for the development of subcellular targeting nanodrugs and imaging nanoprobes by adapting to these surface chemistry principles.
