Abstract
Curcumin (CUR) is a promising natural product for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) therapy. However, its clinical application has been limited by some issues such as rapid clearance and inadequate tumor accumulation. To address these drawbacks, we developed platelet membrane-coated CUR-loaded PLGA nanoparticles (PCPNPs). In this work, due to the bioinspired strategy, the PCPNPs exhibited immune evasion, prolonged circulation, and improved accumulation at tumor sites compared to the traditional CUR formulation. The superior tumor targeting of PCPNPs was likely due to the interactions between platelet P-selectin and tumoral CD44. Furthermore, both in vitro and in vivo assays revealed that the PCPNPs showed outstanding anticancer efficacy without obvious toxicity. Therefore, PCPNPs represent a biosafe and promising anti-tumor strategy, overcoming the limitations associated with CUR. These findings not only contribute to the advancement of natural compound nano-formulation but also open new avenues for targeted cancer treatment.

Abstract
Hematologic malignancies (HMs), also referred to as hematological or blood cancers, pose significant threats to patients as they impact the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic system. Despite significant clinical strategies using chemotherapy, radiotherapy, stem cell transplantation, targeted molecular therapy, or immunotherapy, the five-year overall survival of patients with HMs is still low. Fortunately, recent studies demonstrate that the nanodrug delivery system holds the potential to address these challenges and foster effective anti-HMs with precise treatment. In particular, cell membrane camouflaged nanodrug offers enhanced drug targeting, reduced toxicity and side effects, and/or improved immune response to HMs. This review firstly introduces the merits and demerits of clinical strategies in HMs treatment, and then summarizes the types, advantages, and disadvantages of current nanocarriers helping drug delivery in HMs treatment. Furthermore, the types, functions, and mechanisms of cell membrane fragments that help nanodrugs specifically targeted to and accumulate in HM lesions are introduced in detail. Finally, suggestions are given about their clinical translation and future designs on the surface of nanodrugs with multiple functions to improve therapeutic efficiency for cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral cancer is the most common malignant tumor of the head and neck, and 90% of cases are oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Chemotherapy is an important component of comprehensive treatment for OSCC. However, the clinical treatment effect of chemotherapy drugs, such as doxorubicin (DOX), is limited due to the lack of tumor targeting and rapid clearance by the immune system. Thus, based on the tumor-targeting and immune evasion abilities of macrophages, macrophage membrane-encapsulated poly(methyl vinyl ether alt maleic anhydride)-phenylboronic acid-doxorubicin nanoparticles (MM@PMVEMA-PBA-DOX NPs), briefly as MM@DOX NPs, were designed to target OSCC. The boronate ester bonds between PBA and DOX responded to the low pH value in the tumor microenvironment, selectively releasing the loaded DOX. RESULTS The results showed that MM@DOX NPs exhibited uniform particle size and typical core-shell structure. As the pH decreased from 7.4 to 5.5, drug release increased from 14 to 21%. The in vitro targeting ability, immune evasion ability, and cytotoxicity of MM@DOX NPs were verified in HN6 and SCC15 cell lines. Compared to free DOX, flow cytometry and fluorescence images demonstrated higher uptake of MM@DOX NPs by tumor cells and lower uptake by macrophages. Cell toxicity and live/dead staining experiments showed that MM@DOX NPs exhibited stronger in vitro antitumor effects than free DOX. The targeting and therapeutic effects were further confirmed in vivo. Based on in vivo biodistribution of the nanoparticles, the accumulation of MM@DOX NPs at the tumor site was increased. The pharmacokinetic results demonstrated a longer half-life of 9.26 h for MM@DOX NPs compared to 1.94 h for free DOX. Moreover, MM@DOX NPs exhibited stronger tumor suppression effects in HN6 tumor-bearing mice and good biocompatibility. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, MM@DOX NPs is a safe and efficient therapeutic platform for OSCC.

Abstract
The effectiveness of chemotherapeutic agents for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unsatisfactory because of tumor heterogeneity, multidrug resistance, and poor target accumulation. Therefore, multimodality-treatment with accurate drug delivery has become increasingly popular. Herein, a cell penetrating peptide-aptamer dual modified-nanocomposite (USILA NPs) was successfully constructed by coating a cell penetrating peptide and aptamer onto the surface of sorafenib (Sora), ursolic acid (UA) and indocyanine green (ICG) condensed nanodrug (USI NPs) via one-pot assembly for targeted and synergistic HCC treatment. USILA NPs showed higher cellular uptake and cytotoxicity in HepG2 and H22 cells, with a high expression of epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM). Furthermore, these NPs caused more significant mitochondrial membrane potential reduction and cell apoptosis. These NPs could selectively accumulate at the tumor site of H22 tumor-bearing mice and were detected with the help of ICG fluorescence; moreover, they retarded tumor growth better than monotherapy. Thus, USILA NPs can realize the targeted delivery of dual drugs and the integration of diagnosis and treatment. Moreover, the effects were more significant after co-administration of iRGD peptide, a tumor-penetrating peptide with better penetration promoting ability or programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibody for the reversal of the immunosuppressive state in the tumor microenvironment. The tumor inhibition rates of USILA NPs + iRGD peptide or USILA NPs + PD-L1 antibody with good therapeutic safety were 72.38 % and 67.91 % compared with control, respectively. Overall, this composite nanosystem could act as a promising targeted tool and provide an effective intervention strategy for enhanced HCC synergistic treatment.

Abstract
Nano-biointerfaces play a pivotal role in determining the functionality of engineered therapeutic nanoparticles, particularly in the context of designing nanovaccines to effectively activate immune cells for cancer immunotherapy. Unlike involving chemical reactions by conventional surface decorating strategies, cell membrane-coating technology offers a straightforward approach to endow nanoparticles with natural biosurfaces, enabling them to mimic and integrate into the intricate biosystems of the body to interact with specific cells under physiological conditions. In this study, cell membranes, in a hybrid formulation, derived from cancer and activated macrophage cells were found to enhance the interaction of nanoparticles (HMP) with dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells among the mixed immune cells from lymph nodes (LNs), which could be leveraged in the development of nanovaccines for anti-tumor therapy. After loading with an adjuvant (R837), the nanoparticles coated with a hybrid membrane (HMPR) demonstrated effectiveness in priming DCs both in vitro and in vivo, resulting in amplified anti-tumor immune responses compared to those of nanoparticles coated with a single type of membrane or those lacking a membrane coating. The elevated immunoactivity of nanoparticles achieved by incorporating a hybrid membrane biosurface provides us a more profound comprehension of the nano-immune interaction, which may significantly benefit the development of bioactive nanomaterials for advanced therapy.

Abstract
Tumor cells may be eliminated by increasing their temperature. This is achieved via photothermal therapy (PTT) by penetrating the tumor tissue with near-infrared light and converting light energy into heat using photothermal agents. Copper sulfide nanoparticles (CuS NPs) are commonly used as PTAs in PTT. In this review, we aimed to discuss the synergism between tumor PTT with CuS NPs and other therapies such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, dynamic therapies (photodynamic, chemodynamic, and sonodynamic therapy), immunotherapy, gene therapy, gas therapy, and magnetic hyperthermia. Furthermore, we summarized the results obtained with a combination of two treatments and at least two therapies, with PTT as one of the included therapies. Finally, we summarized the benefits and drawbacks of various therapeutic options and state of the art CuS-based PTT and provided future directions for such therapies.

Abstract
Tumor hypoxia is considered one of the key causes of the ineffectiveness of various strategies for cancer treatment, and the non-specific effects of chemotherapy drugs on tumor treatment often lead to systemic toxicity. Thus, we designed M1 macrophage-biomimetic-targeted nanoparticles (DOX/CAT@PLGA-M1) which contain oxygen self-supplied enzyme (catalase, CAT) and chemo-therapeutic drug (doxorubicin, DOX). The particle size of DOX/CAT@PLGA-M1 was 202.32 ± 2.27 nm (PDI < 0.3). DOX/CAT@PLGA-M1 exhibited a characteristic core-shell bilayer membrane structure. The CAT activity of DOX/CAT@PLGA-M1 was 1000 (U/mL), which indicated that the formation of NPs did not significantly affect its enzymatic activity. And in vitro drug release showed that the cumulative release rate of DOX/CAT@PLGA-M1 was enhanced from 26.93% to 50.10% in the release medium of hydrogen peroxide, which was attributed to the reaction of CAT in the NPs. DOX/CAT@PLGA-M1 displayed a significantly higher uptake in 4T1 cells, because VCAM-1 in tumor cells interacted with specific integrin (α4 and β1), and thereby achieved tumor sites. And the tumor volume of the DOX/CAT@PLGA-M1 group was significantly reduced (0.22 cm3), which further proved the active targeting effect of the M1 macrophage membrane. Above all, a novel multifunctional nano-therapy was developed which improved tumor hypoxia and obtained tumor targeting activity.

Abstract
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which normally follows psychological trauma, has been increasingly studied as a brain disease. However, the blood-brain barrier (BBB) prevents conventional drugs for PTSD from entering the brain. Our previous studies proved the effectiveness of cannabidiol (CBD) against PTSD, but low water solubility, low brain targeting efficiency and poor bioavailability restricted its applications. Here, a bionic delivery system, camouflage CBD-loaded macrophage-membrane nanovesicles (CMNVs), was constructed via co-extrusion of CBD with macrophage membranes, which had inflammatory and immune escape properties. In vitro anti-inflammatory, cellular uptake and pharmacokinetic experiments respectively verified the anti-inflammatory, inflammatory targeting and immune escape properties of CMNVs. Brain targeting and excellent anti-PTSD effects of CMNVs had been validated in vivo by imaging and pharmacodynamics studies. In our study, the potential of ultrasound to open BBBs and improve the brain-targeted delivery of CBD was evaluated. In conclusion, this cell membrane bionic delivery system assisted with ultrasound had good therapeutic effect against PTSD mice, which is expected to help convey CBD to inflammatory areas within the brain and alleviate the symptoms of PTSD.

[PMID: 36931535 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.122851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/11/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023]
Abstract
The postoperative thrombus attached to the damaged blood vessels severely obstructs drugs from crossing the damaged blood-brain barrier (BBB) and targeting residual glioma cells around surgical margins, leading to glioblastoma (GBM) recurrence. A thrombus-bypassing, BBB-crossing, and surgical margin-targeted nanodrug is needed to address this phenomenon. Encouraged by the intrinsic damaged vascular endothelium chemotaxis of platelets, a platelet membrane-coated nanodrug (PM-HDOX) delivering doxorubicin (DOX) for postoperative GBM treatment is proposed and systematically investigated. Because surgery damages the vascular endothelium on the BBB around the surgical margin, the platelet membrane coating endows PM-HDOX with its inherent capacity to cross the broken BBB and target the surgical margin. Moreover, preoperative administration combined with fast-targeted PM-HDOX can realize the potential of bypassing thrombus. In GBM resection models, PM-HDOX with preoperative administration demonstrated significantly enhanced BBB-crossing and surgical margin-targeted efficacy. In particular, the PM-HDOX intensities around the surgical margins of the preoperative administration group were more than twice that of the postoperative administration group due to bypassing the thrombus formed in the broken BBB. In the antitumor experiment, the preoperative administration of PM-HDOX significantly inhibited the growth of postoperative residual tumors and prolonged the median survival time of mice. In conclusion, preoperative administration of a biomimetic platelet nanodrug can be an efficient and promising drug delivery strategy for residual GBM after surgery.

Abstract
Recently, nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems have been widely used for the treatment, prevention, and detection of diseases. Improving the targeted delivery ability of nanoparticles has emerged as a critical issue that must be addressed as soon as possible. The bionic cell membrane coating technology has become a novel concept for the design of nanoparticles. The diverse biological roles of cell membrane surface proteins endow nanoparticles with several functions, such as immune escape, long circulation time, and targeted delivery; therefore, these proteins are being extensively studied in the fields of drug delivery, detoxification, and cancer treatment. Furthermore, hybrid cell membrane-coated nanoparticles enhance the beneficial effects of monotypic cell membranes, resulting in multifunctional and efficient delivery carriers. This review focuses on the synthesis, development, and application of the cell membrane coating technology and discusses the function and mechanism of monotypic/hybrid cell membrane-modified nanoparticles in detail. Moreover, it summarizes the applications of cell membranes from different sources and discusses the challenges that may be faced during the clinical application of bionic carriers, including their production, mechanism, and quality control. We hope this review will attract more scholars toward bionic cell membrane carriers and provide certain ideas and directions for solving the existing problems.

[PMID: 36646378 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2023.121399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 01/02/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
Macrophages play a major role in maintaining an organism's physiology, such as development, homeostasis, tissue repair, and immunity. These immune cells are known to be involved in tumor progression and modulation. Monocytes can be polarized to two types of macrophages (M1 macrophages and pro-tumor M2 macrophages). Through this article, we aim to emphasize the potential of targeting macrophages in order to improve current strategies for tumor management. Various strategies that target macrophages as a therapeutic target have been discussed along with ongoing clinical trials. We have discussed the role of macrophages in various stages of tumor progression epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), invasion, maintaining the stability of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood, and establishing a premetastatic niche along with the role of various cytokines and chemokines involved in these processes. Intriguingly macrophages can also serve as drug carriers due to their tumor tropism along the chemokine gradient. They surpass currently explored nanotherapeutics in tumor accumulation and circulation half-life. We have emphasized on macrophage-based biomimetic formulations and macrophage-hitchhiking as a strategy to effectively target tumors. We firmly believe that targeting macrophages or utilizing them as an indigenous carrier system could transform cancer management.

Abstract
With the aim to locally enhance the efficacy of cancer nanotherapies, here we present metal iron based magnetoplasmonic drug-loaded nanocapsules (MAPSULES), merging powerful external magnetic concentration in the tumor and efficient photothermal actuation to locally boost the drug therapeutic action at ultralow drug concentrations. The MAPSULES are composed of paclitaxel-loaded polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanoparticles partially coated by a nanodome shape iron/silica semishell. The iron semishell has been designed to present a ferromagnetic vortex for incorporating a large quantity of ferromagnetic material while maintaining high colloidal stability. The large iron semishell provides very strong magnetic manipulation via magnetophoretic forces, enabling over 10-fold higher trapping efficiency in microfluidic channels than typical superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. Moreover, the iron semishell exhibits highly damped plasmonic behavior, yielding intense broadband absorbance in the near-infrared biological windows and photothermal efficiency similar to the best plasmonic nanoheaters. The in vivo therapeutic assays in a mouse xenograft tumor model show a high amplification of the therapeutic effects by combining magnetic concentration and photothermal actuation in the tumor, leading to a complete eradication of the tumors at ultralow nanoparticle and drug concentration (equivalent to only 1 mg/kg PLGA nanoparticles containing 8 μg/kg of paclitaxel, i.e., 100-500-fold lower than the therapeutic window of the free and PLGA encapsulated drug and 13-3000-fold lower than current nanotherapies combining paclitaxel and light actuation). These results highlight the strength of this externally controlled and amplified therapeutic approach, which could be applied to locally boost a wide variety of drugs for different diseases.

Abstract
Nanocarriers (NCs) have shown potential in delivering hydrophobic cytotoxic drugs and tumor-specific targeting. However, the inability to penetrate the tumor microenvironment and entrapment by macrophages has limited their clinical translation. Various cell-based drug delivery systems have been explored for their ability to improve circulation half-life and tumor accumulation capabilities. Tumors are characterized by high inflammation, which aids in tumor progression and metastasis. Immune cells show natural tumor tropism and penetration inside the tumor microenvironment (TME) and are a topic of great interest in cancer drug delivery. However, the TME is immunosuppressive and can polarize immune cells to pro-tumor. Thus, the use of immune cell membrane-coated NCs has gained popularity. Such carriers display immune cell-specific surface receptors for tumor-specific accumulation but lack cell machinery. The lack of immune cell machinery makes them unaffected by the immunosuppressive TME, meanwhile maintaining the inherent tumor tropism. In this review, we discuss the molecular mechanism behind the movement of various immune cells toward TME, the preparation and characterization of membrane-coated NCs, and the efficacy of immune cell-mimicking NCs in tumor therapy. Regulatory guidelines and the bottlenecks in clinical translation are also highlighted. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Nanocarriers have been explored for the site-specific delivery of chemotherapeutics. However, low systemic circulation half-life, extensive entrapment by macrophages, and poor accumulation inside the tumor microenvironment prevent the clinical translation of conventional nanotherapeutics. Immune cells possess the natural tropism towards the tumor along the chemokine gradient. Hence, coating the nanocarriers with immune cell-derived membranes can improve the accumulation of nanocarriers inside the tumor. Moreover, coating with membranes derived autologous immune cells will prevent engulfment by the macrophages.

Macrophage cell membrane-based nanoparticles: a new promising biomimetic platform for targeted delivery and treatment. J Nanobiotechnology 2022; 20:542.

Abstract
Synthetic nanoparticles with surface bioconjugation are promising platforms for targeted therapy, but their simple biological functionalization is still a challenging task against the complex intercellular environment. Once synthetic nanoparticles enter the body, they are phagocytosed by immune cells by the immune system. Recently, the cell membrane camouflage strategy has emerged as a novel therapeutic tactic to overcome these issues by utilizing the fundamental properties of natural cells. Macrophage, a type of immune system cells, plays critical roles in various diseases, including cancer, atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, infection and inflammation, due to the recognition and engulfment function of removing substances and pathogens. Macrophage membranes inherit the surface protein profiles and biointerfacing properties of source cells. Therefore, the macrophage membrane cloaking can protect synthetic nanoparticles from phagocytosis by the immune cells. Meanwhile, the macrophage membrane can make use of the natural correspondence to accurately recognize antigens and target inflamed tissue or tumor sites. In this review, we have summarized the advances in the fabrication, characterization and homing capacity of macrophage membrane cloaking nanoparticles in various diseases, including cancers, immune diseases, cardiovascular diseases, central nervous system diseases, and microbial infections. Although macrophage membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles are currently in the fetal stage of development, there is huge potential and challenge to explore the conversion mode in the clinic.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by the interaction of oral microorganisms with the host immune response. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P.g.) acts as a key mediator in subverting the homeostasis of the local immune system. On the one hand, P.g. inhibits phagocytosis and the killing capacity of immune cells. On the other hand, P.g. increases selective cytokine release, which is beneficial to its further proliferation. Here, we prepared a penetrating macrophage-based nanoformulation (MZ@PNM)-encapsulating hydrogel (MZ@PNM@GCP) that responded to the periodontitis microenvironment. MZ@PNM targeted P.g. via the Toll-like receptor complex 2/1 (TLR2/1) on its macrophage-mimicking membrane, then directly killed P.g. through disruption of bacterial structural integrity by the cationic nanoparticles and intracellular release of an antibacterial drug, metronidazole (MZ). Meanwhile, MZ@PNM interrupted the specific binding of P.g. to immune cells and neutralized complement component 5a (C5a), preventing P.g. subversion of periodontal host immune response. Overall, MZ@PNM@GCP showed potent efficacy in periodontitis treatment, restoring local immune function and killing pathogenic bacteria, while exhibiting favorable biocompatibility, all of which have been demonstrated both in vivo and in vitro.

Abstract
Poor targeting of therapeutics leading to severe adverse effects on normal tissues is considered one of the obstacles in cancer therapy. To help overcome this, nanoscale drug delivery systems have provided an alternative avenue for improving the therapeutic potential of various agents and bioactive molecules through the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. Nanosystems with cancer-targeted ligands can achieve effective delivery to the tumor cells utilizing cell surface-specific receptors, the tumor vasculature and antigens with high accuracy and affinity. Additionally, stimuli-responsive nanoplatforms have also been considered as a promising and effective targeting strategy against tumors, as these nanoplatforms maintain their stealth feature under normal conditions, but upon homing in on cancerous lesions or their microenvironment, are responsive and release their cargoes. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the field of active targeting drug delivery systems and a number of stimuli-responsive release studies in the context of emerging nanoplatform development, and also discuss how this knowledge can contribute to further improvements in clinical practice.

Abstract
The introduction of different pore diameters in metal organic frameworks (MOFs) could adjust their drug delivery performance. MOFs with customized structures have potential application value in targeted drug delivery. However, no research on this topic has been found so far. In this report, isoreticular metal organic frameworks (IRMOFs) have been taken as a typical case of tailor-made MOFs, the pore size of which is enlarged (average BJH pore sizes of about 2.43, 3.06, 5.47, and 6.50 nm were determined for IRMOF-1, IRMOF-8, IRMOF-10, and IRMOF-16, respectively), emphasizing the relationship between pore size and model drugs (Oridonin, ORI) and clarifying its potential working mechanism. IRMOF-1, whose pore size matches the size of ORI, has an outstanding drug loading capacity (57.93% by wt) and release profile (about 90% in 24 h at pH 7.4). IRMOF-1 was further coated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) modified with a cell penetrating peptide (CPP44) bound to M160 (CD163L1) protein for targeting of hepatic tumor lines. This nanoplatform (CPP44-PEG@ORI@IRMOF-1) exhibited acid-responsive drug release behavior (37.86% in 10 h at pH 7.4 and 66.66% in 10 h at pH 5.5) and significantly enhanced antitumor effects. The results of cell targeting and in vivo animal imaging indicated that CPP44-PEG@ORI@IRMOF-1 may serve as a tumor-selective drug delivery nanoplatform. Toxicity assessment confirmed that PEGylated IRMOF-1 did not cause organ or systemic toxicity. Furthermore, it is encouraging that the IRMOF-based targeted drug delivery system with pore size modulation showed rapid clearance (most administered NPs are metabolized from urine and feces within 1 week) and avoided accumulation in the body, indicating their promise for biomedical applications. This MOF-based aperture modulation combined with a targeted modification strategy might find broad applications in cancer theranostics. Thus, it is convenient to customize personalized MOFs according to the size of drug molecules in future research.

Abstract
Cell membrane-camouflaged biomimetic functionalization of nanoparticles has emerged as a promising strategy for cancer theranostics. These cell membranes used for camouflaging are generally isolated from natural or engineered erythrocytes, neutrophils, macrophages, T lymphatic cells, stem cells, and cancer cells. The camouflaging strategy of coating nanoparticles with cell membranes allows for tumor homotypic targeting through self-recognition as source cells, immune evasion, and a prolonged blood circulation time, thereby improving the effective payload delivery and tumor therapy. More so, some engineered cell membranes with functionalized peptides, proteins and moieties on membrane surface can be transferred for therapy in the same time. In this review, we summarize the latest research on various types of cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles aimed at anti-cancer therapy, focusing on the biological advantages of different cell membranes, constitutions of nanoparticles, fabrication processes, key findings, potential therapies, and discuss the major challenges and future opportunities.

Abstract
Biomimetic approaches utilize natural cell membrane-derived nanovesicles to camouflage nanoparticles to circumvent some limitations of nanoscale materials. This emergent cell membrane-coating technology is inspired by naturally occurring intercellular interactions, to efficiently guide nanostructures to the desired locations, thereby increasing both therapeutic efficacy and safety. In addition, the intrinsic biocompatibility of cell membranes allows the crossing of biological barriers and avoids elimination by the immune system. This results in enhanced blood circulation time and lower toxicity in vivo. Macrophages are the major phagocytic cells of the innate immune system. They are equipped with a complex repertoire of surface receptors, enabling them to respond to biological signals, and to exhibit a natural tropism to inflammatory sites and tumorous tissues. Macrophage cell membrane-functionalized nanosystems are designed to combine the advantages of both macrophages and nanomaterials, improving the ability of those nanosystems to reach target sites. Recent studies have demonstrated the potential of these biomimetic nanosystems for targeted delivery of drugs and imaging agents to tumors, inflammatory, and infected sites. The present review covers the preparation and biomedical applications of macrophage cell membrane-coated nanosystems. Challenges and future perspectives in the development of these membrane-coated nanosystems are addressed.

Abstract
Natural types of cells display distinct characteristics with homotypic targeting and extended circulation in the blood, which are worthy of being explored as promising drug delivery systems (DDSs) for cancer therapy. To enhance their delivery efficiency, these cells can be combined with therapeutic agents and artificial nanocarriers to construct the next generation of DDSs in the form of biomimetic nanomedicines. In this review, we present the recent advances in cell membrane-based DDSs (CDDSs) and their applications for efficient cancer therapy. Different sources of cell membranes are discussed, mainly including red blood cells (RBC), leukocytes, cancer cells, stem cells and hybrid cells. Moreover, the extraction methods used for obtaining such cells and the mechanism contributing to the functional action of these biomimetic CDDSs are explained. Finally, a future perspective is proposed to highlight the limitations of CDDSs and the possible resolutions toward clinical transformation of currently developed biomimetic chemotherapies.

Abstract
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world, behind only cardiovascular diseases, and is one of the most serious diseases threatening human health nowadays. Cancer patients’ lives are being extended by the use of contemporary medical technologies, such as surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. However, these treatments are not always effective in extending cancer patients’ lives. Simultaneously, these approaches are often accompanied with a series of negative consequences, such as the occurrence of adverse effects and an increased risk of relapse. As a result, the development of a novel cancer-eradication strategy is still required. The emergence of nanomedicine as a promising technology brings a new avenue for the circumvention of limitations of conventional cancer therapies. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), in particular, have garnered extensive attention due to their many specific advantages, including customizable size and shape, multiple and useful physicochemical properties, and ease of functionalization. Based on these characteristics, many therapeutic and diagnostic applications of AuNPs have been exploited, particularly for malignant tumors, such as drug and nucleic acid delivery, photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, and X-ray-based computed tomography imaging. To leverage the potential of AuNPs, these applications demand a comprehensive and in-depth overview. As a result, we discussed current achievements in AuNPs in anticancer applications in a more methodical manner in this review. Also addressed in depth are the present status of clinical trials, as well as the difficulties that may be encountered when translating some basic findings into the clinic, in order to serve as a reference for future studies.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) of unknown etiology affecting the colon and rectum. Previous studies have found that reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduction and transmembrane glycoprotein CD98 (encoded by SLC3A2) upregulation played important roles in the initiation and progression of UC. On the basis of this, a biomimetic pH-responsive metal organic framework (MOF) carrier was constructed to deliver carbon nanodot-SOD nanozyme and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) (CRISPR/Cas9) system for site-specific treatment of UC. In this system, carbon nanodots (C-dots) and CD98 CRISPR/Cas9 plasmid were successfully encapsulated into MOF carrier (ZIF-8 nanoparticles) by a one-pot approach (formed as CCZ), and then camouflaged with macrophage membrane (formed as CCZM). It was worth noting that the C-dot nanozyme showed excellent superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymatic activity, which could scavenge ROS effectively. As expected, this biomimetic system exhibited pH-responsive, immune escape, and inflammation targeting capability simultaneously. In vitro experiments showed that ROS was significantly eliminated, and CD98 was downregulated by CCZM. In the dextran sulfate sodium salt (DSS)-induced UC model, administration of CCZM significantly ameliorated the inflammation symptoms of mice, including the colon length and pathological parameters such as epithelium integrity and inflammation infiltration. In addition, both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrated that biomimetic nanoparticles effectively reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Overall, this study would provide a promising approach for the precise treatment of UC.

Abstract
Fe-based nanomaterials with Fenton reaction activity are promising for tumor-specific chemodynamic therapy (CDT). However, most of the nanomaterials suffer from low catalytic efficiency due to its insufficient active site exposure and the relatively high tumor intracellular pH, which greatly impede its clinical application. Herein, macrophage membrane-camouflaged carbonic anhydrase IX inhibitor (CAI)-loaded hollow mesoporous ferric oxide (HMFe) nanocatalysts are designed to remodel the tumor microenvironment with decreased intracellular pH for self-amplified CDT. The HMFe not only serves as a Fenton agent with high active-atom exposure to enhance CDT but also provides hollow cavity for CAI loading. Meanwhile, the macrophage membrane-camouflaging endows the nanocatalysts with immune evading capability and improves tumoritropic accumulation by recognizing tumor endothelium and cancer cells through α4/VCAM-1 interaction. Once internalized by tumor cells, the CAI could be specifically released, which can not only inhibit CA IX to induce intracellular H+ accumulation for accelerating the Fenton reaction but also could prevent tumor metastasis because of the insufficient H+ formation outside cells for tumor extracellular matrix degradation. In addition, the HMFe can be employed to highly efficient magnetic resonance imaging to real-time monitor the agents' bio-distribution and treatment progress. Both in vitro and in vivo results well demonstrated that the nanocatalysts could realize self-amplified CDT and breast cancer metastasis inhibition via tumor microenvironment remodeling, which also provides a promising paradigm for improving CDT and antimetastatic treatment.

Abstract
Immune cells can actively regulate tumors or inflammatory sites and have good biocompatibility and safety. Currently, they are one of the most promising candidates for drug delivery systems. Moreover, immune cells can significantly extend the circulation time of nanoparticles and have broad-spectrum tumor-targeting properties. This article first introduces the immune cell types most commonly used in recent years, analyzes their advantages and disadvantages, and elucidates their application in anti-tumor therapy. Next, the various ways of loading nanoparticles on immune cells that have been used in recent years are summarized and simply divided into two categories: backpacks and Trojan horses. Finally, the two "mountains" that stand in front of us when using immune cells as cell carriers, off-target problems and effective release strategies, are discussed.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a type of programmed cell death caused by the iron-dependent lipid hydroperoxide pathway and has attracted significant interest. However, Fenton reaction-dependent ferroptosis has shown unsatisfactory therapeutic effects in tumor therapy, mainly due to inadequate reaction conditions in the tumor microenvironment. Here, we report a new strategy for Fenton-independent pathway by employing photothermal nanozyme to overcome limitations of the low efficiency of Fenton reaction. Specifically, we used iron redox pair (Fe2+/Fe3+)-containing hollow mesoporous Prussian blue (HMPB) nanocubes as the iron sources to fabricate iron-loaded liposome (HMPB@Lip). HMPB@Lip not only exerts the photothermal therapy, but also functions as nanozyme catalyzing lipid peroxidation for ferroptosis therapy. Importantly, Fenton reaction-independent ferroptosis triggered by photothermal nanozyme achieved effective tumor ablation. Therefore, HMPB@Lip can be used as a potential multifunctional nanozyme for effective Fenton reaction-independent ferroptosis therapy.

[PMID: 34530140 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.09.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2021] [Revised: 09/03/2021] [Accepted: 09/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Cutaneous melanoma is one of the most common malignant skin cancer with high lethality. Chemotherapy and photothermal therapy are important and extensively studied treatment modalities for melanoma. However, these therapies still face some challenges, which severely restrict their further applications, such as unsatisfactory efficacy of monotherapy, nonspecific uptake and release during drug delivery, and unexpected adverse effects from system administration. Recently, the strategies of collaboration, functional modification, stimuli-responsive design, and topical administration all show great prospect for solving above problems. In this research, a multifunctional nanoparticle-integrated dissolving microneedle drug delivery system was constructed, in which the nanoparticles were prepared based on the framework with the incorporation of photothermal agent (CuS) into Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 and functionalized by hyaluronic acid. This system can co-load multi-modal drugs, improve specific uptake and distribution of targeted tumor, deliver drug locally, and release drug intelligently and spatiotemporally, thereby promising a low-dose administration with high efficiency. The high inhibiting tumor performance and excellent systematic safety were verified both in vitro and in vivo. Together, this smart design overcame the drawbacks of monotherapy and conventional system administration. We believe the nanoparticle-integrated dissolving microneedles will be in prospect of clinical application for more superficial tumors with further delicate optimization. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Melanoma is one of the most common skin cancers with high lethality. Extensively studied chemotherapy and photothermal therapy still face some challenges, such as the limited therapeutic efficacy and the severe system adverse effects. In order to overcome these drawbacks, the multifunctional nanoparticle-integrated dissolving microneedles (DMNs) were designed. Especially, the nanoparticles could co-load multi-modal drugs, improve specific uptake, and release drug intelligently and spatiotemporally. The microneedles could increase the drug accumulation in tumor, thus achieving excellent therapeutic efficacy and reducing side effects. This system paved the way to a less invasive, more focused and efficient therapeutic strategy for melanoma therapy.

Abstract
Background Natural cyclopeptide RA-XII, isolated from Rubia yunnanensis, is a promising chemotherapeutic agent for colon cancer. The photosensitizer protoporphyrin-IX attached with triphenylphosphonium (TPP) could possess mitochondria targeting capacity and exert photodynamic therapy (PDT) by inducing oxidizing damage to the mitochondria and cell apoptosis eventually. In this work, pH-sensitive liposomes were constructed to simultaneously deliver RA-XII as a chemotherapeutic drug and modified porphyrin as a mitochondria-targeting photosensitizer to treat colon cancer, and verified its mechanism of action and antitumor therapeutic efficacy. Methods The colon cancer targeting liposome nanoparticle RA/TPPP-Lip was synthesized using thin film hydration. The therapeutic effect and targeting ability of RA/TPPP-Lip was investigated in vitro. And use HCT116 cell allogeneic subcutaneous transplantation tumor model to investigate the anti-tumor and targeting effects of RA/TPPP-Lip in vivo. Results RA/TPPP-Lip gained the targeting ability through surface-modified HA to increase the accumulation of RA-XII and TPPP in colon cancer cells. A series of in vitro experimental results showed that TPPP produced cytotoxic ROS under laser irradiation to directly damage cell mitochondria and played a combined role with RA-XII, making RA/TPPP-Lip the best colon cancer cell growth inhibitory effect. Furthermore, in vivo antitumor experiments showed that the RA/TPPP-Lip substantially accumulated at the tumor site and efficiently repressed tumor growth in nude mice. Conclusion We have successfully designed a new cancer-targeted nanomedicine platform (RA/TPPP-Lip) for the collaborative treatment of colon cancer, which can achieve the targeted continuous release of multiple therapeutic drugs. This work provides a new strategy for precise combination therapy, which may promote the further development of collaborative cancer treatment platforms.

Abstract
Development of a simple method to enhance targeting and anti-tumor effect of the chemotherapeutic agents in vivo is a major problem. Amphipathic and natural daptomycin is biocompatible antibacterial polypeptide used in clinical practice. Herein, doxorubicin (DOX) was stabilized by zwitterionic daptomycin (Dap) micelles in aqueous solution to form a zwitterionic nanodrug (Dap-DOX micelles). The hydrodynamic size and zeta potential of Dap-DOX micelles were 85 nm and -10 mV, respectively. The study on the controlled release showed that more DOX molecules were released from Dap-DOX micelles at acidic condition of tumor tissue than that at neutral condition of normal tissue which was due to pH responsiveness of Dap-DOX micelles. Dap-DOX micelles exhibited good stability in fibrinogen solution. Moreover, MTT studies showed that Dap-DOX micelles had higher cytotoxicity than free DOX. Notably, the results of flow cytometry indicated that the average fluorescence intensity of Dap-DOX micelle-treated cells was higher than that of free DOX-treated cells, and acidic conditions were more favorable for Dap-DOX micelles than normal pH in cell uptake assay. More importantly, Dap-DOX micelles were biocompatible in vivo based on the changes of weight and blood indexes of mice. Dap-DOX micelles were selectively accumulated at tumor sites in vivo through EPR effect, which reduced the toxicity of free DOX and achieved excellent tumor inhibition effect. The tumor inhibition rate of Dap-DOX micelles reached 96%. Dap-DOX micelles also effectively inhibited the growth of bacterial. Taken together, Dap-based drug delivery systems are promising and effective in cancer therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Malignant melanoma is one of the most devastating types of cancer with rapid relapse and low survival rate. Novel strategies for melanoma treatment are currently needed to enhance therapeutic efficiency for this disease. In this study, we fabricated a multifunctional drug delivery system that incorporates dacarbazine (DTIC) and indocyanine green (ICG) into manganese-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN(Mn)) coupled with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photothermal imaging (PI), for achieving the superior antitumor effect of combined chemo-photothermal therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS MSN(Mn) were characterized in terms of size and structural properties, and drug loading and release efficiency MSN(Mn)-ICG/DTIC were analyzed by UV spectra. Photothermal imaging effect and MR imaging effect of MSN(Mn)-ICG/DTIC were detected by thermal imaging system and 3.0 T MRI scanner, respectively. Then, the combined chemo-phototherapy was verified in vitro and in vivo by morphological evaluation, ultrasonic and pathological evaluation. RESULTS The as-synthesized MSN(Mn) were characterized as mesoporous spherical nanoparticles with 125.57±5.96 nm. MSN(Mn)-ICG/DTIC have the function of drug loading-release which loading ratio of ICG and DTIC could reach to 34.25±2.20% and 50.00±3.24%, and 32.68±2.10% of DTIC was released, respectively. Manganese doping content could reach up to 65.09±2.55 wt%, providing excellent imaging capability in vivo which the corresponding relaxation efficiency was 14.33 mM-1s-1. And outstanding photothermal heating ability and stability highlighted the potential biomedical applicability of MSN(Mn)-ICG/DTIC to kill cancer cells. Experiments by A375 melanoma cells and tumor-bearing mice demonstrated that the compound MSN(Mn)-ICG/DTIC have excellent biocompatibility and our combined therapy platform delivered a superior antitumor effect compared to standalone treatment in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSION Our findings demonstrate that composite MSN(Mn)-ICG/DTIC could serve as a multifunctional platform to achieve a highly effective chemo-photothermal combined therapy for melanoma treatment.
