[PMID: 39079272 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.07.196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2024] [Revised: 07/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 09/19/2024]
Abstract
Bimetallic nanozymes exhibited multi-enzyme activities, but glutathione (GSH) overexpression and weak catalytic capability restricted their catalytic therapeutic performance. Thus, this study developed a smart nanozyme (AuPt@MnO2) with a core-shell structure by coating manganese dioxide (MnO2) on the gold-platinum (AuPt) nanozyme (AuPt@MnO2) surface to enhance catalytic therapy. In this nanozyme, AuPt possessed triple-enzyme activities, i.e., catalase, peroxidase, and glucose oxidase, which greatly improved oxygen, hydroxyl radicals (·OH), and hydrogen peroxide generation, due to cyclic reactions. Moreover, GSH consumption degraded the MnO2 shell, which then enhanced ·OH generation of Mn2+. More importantly, the near-infrared-II (NIR-II) photothermal performance of AuPt@MnO2 with a high conversion efficiency of 38.7 % further promoted multi-enzyme activities and enhanced catalytic therapy. Moreover, combining NIR-II photothermal therapy and enhancing catalytic therapy decreased the cell viability to 10.8 %, and thereby, the tumors were cleared. Thus, the AuPt@MnO2 smart nanoplatform developed in this study exhibited NIR-II photothermal-promoted multi-enzyme activities and excellent antitumor efficacy, which will be promising for enhancing catalytic therapy.

Abstract
Recently, the emerging chemotherapy (CDT) has provided a new biocompatibility pathway for cancer therapy. Among them, Cu-based nanocatalysts with good biocompatibility and Fenton-like catalytic efficiency are considered to be a promising approach for enhancing CDT and CDT-involved multimodal synergies to improve the effectiveness of catalytic cancer therapy. Meanwhile, the emerging in situ therapy strategy promoted by Cu-based nanocatalysts has proven to exhibit attractive clinical application potential in replacing traditional chemotherapy and radiotherapy for cancer therapy with significant toxic side effects. In this work, the recent progress of various Cu-based nanocatalysts in cancer therapy was reviewed, especially the remarkable achievements in the catalytic treatment of cancer in the tumor microenvironment using CDT and CDT-involved multimodal synergies. In addition, the development expectations and challenges of Cu-based nanocatalysts in the field of cancer therapy were briefly summarized and discussed. We expect that this review will contribute to the development of Cu-based nanocatalysts for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Nanozymes exhibit significant potential in medical theranostics, environmental protection, energy development, and biopharmaceuticals due to their exceptional catalytic performance. Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes have the advantages of simple preparation and purification, convenient production and low cost. Therefore, it is very important to prepare nanozymes quickly and efficiently, which not only helps to expand their application scope, but also can further exert their great potential in various fields. Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) materials serve as versatile substrates for constructing nanozymes, offering unique advantages like adjustable structure, high specific surface area, and porous channels. MOF coordination nodes constructed from metal ions or metal clusters have unique properties that can be leveraged to tailor nanozyme characteristics for different applications. This review describes and analyzes recent methods for constructing nanozymes using MOF materials, and explores their application prospects in biomedicine.

Abstract
A dual-color ratiometric fluorescence sensor based on photonic crystals (PCs) was developed to detect tetracycline (TC) in food. PC was fabricated via self-assembly of carbon dots (CDs)-loaded SiO2 nanoparticles. Gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) and copper ions (Cu2+) were then adsorbed onto the PC for sensor fabrication. The fluorescence of AuNCs was amplified by the PC with an enhancement ratio of 7.6, providing higher sensitivity. The fluorescence of AuNCs was quenched by Cu2+, whereas that of CDs remained unchanged as an internal reference. TC restored the fluorescence of AuNCs owing to its complexation with Cu2+, resulting in a change in the fluorescence intensity ratio. The sensor exhibited a good linear relationship with TC concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 μM, with a detection limit of 34 nM. Furthermore, the sensor was applied for TC detection in food with satisfactory recoveries and relative standard deviations, revealing great potential in practical application.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF)-based drug delivery nanomaterials for cancer therapy have attracted increasing attention in recent years. Here, an enhanced chemodynamic anti-tumor therapy strategy by promoting the Fenton reaction by using core-shell zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8)@Fe3O4 as a therapeutic platform is proposed. Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is used as a stabilizer of Fe3O4, which is then decorated on the surface of ZIF-8 via the electrostatic interaction and serves as an efficient Fenton reaction trigger. Meanwhile, the pH-responsive ZIF-8 scaffold acts as a container to encapsulate the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX). The obtained DOX-ZIF-8@Fe3O4/CMC (DZFC) nanoparticles concomitantly accelerate DOX release and generate more hydroxyl radicals by targeting the lysosomes in cancer cells. In vitro and in vivo studies verify that the DZFC nanoparticles trigger glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4)-dependent ferroptosis via the activation of the c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) signaling pathway, following to achieve the chemo/ferroptosis synergistic anti-tumor efficacy. No marked toxic effects are detected during DZFC treatment in a tumor-bearing mouse model. This composite nanoparticle remarkably suppresses the tumor growth with minimized systemic toxicity, opening new horizons for the next generation of theragnostic nanomedicines.

Abstract
The development of new imaging and treatment nanoprodrug systems is highly demanded for diagnosis and therapy of liver cancer, a severe disease characterized by a high recurrence rate. Currently, available small molecule drugs are not possible for cancer diagnosis because of the fast diffusion of imaging agents and low efficacy in treatment due to poor water solubility and significant toxic side effects. In this study, we report the development of a tumor microenvironment activatable nanoprodrug system for the diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer. This nanoprodrug system can accumulate in the tumor site and be selectively activated by an excess of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the tumor microenvironment, releasing near-infrared solid-state organic fluorescent probe (HPQCY-1) and phenylboronic acid-modified camptothecin (CPT) prodrug. Both HPQCY-1 and CPT prodrugs can be further activated in tumor sites for achieving more precise in situ near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging and treatment while reducing the toxic effects of drugs on normal tissues. Additionally, the incorporation of hydrophilic multivalent chitosan as a carrier effectively improved the water solubility of the system. This research thus provides a practical new approach for the diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer.

Abstract
Nanozymes are nanomaterials that exhibit enzyme-like biomimicry. In combination with intrinsic characteristics of nanomaterials, nanozymes have broad applicability in materials science, chemical engineering, bioengineering, biochemistry, and disease theranostics. Recently, the heterogeneity of published results has highlighted the complexity and diversity of nanozymes in terms of consistency of catalytic capacity. Machine learning (ML) shows promising potential for discovering new materials, yet it remains challenging for the design of new nanozymes based on ML approaches. Alternatively, ML is employed to promote optimization of intelligent design and application of catalytic materials and engineered enzymes. Incorporation of the successful ML algorithms used in the intelligent design of catalytic materials and engineered enzymes can concomitantly facilitate the guided development of next-generation nanozymes with desirable properties. Here, recent progress in ML, its utilization in the design of catalytic materials and enzymes, and how emergent ML applications serve as promising strategies to circumvent challenges associated with time-expensive and laborious testing in nanozyme research and development are summarized. The potential applications of successful examples of ML-aided catalytic materials and engineered enzymes in nanozyme design are also highlighted, with special focus on the unified aims in enhancing design and recapitulation of substrate selectivity and catalytic activity.

Abstract
As an endogenous catalytic treatment, chemodynamic therapy (CDT) was attracting considerable attention, but the weak catalytic efficiency of Fenton agents and the non-degradation of nanocarriers severely limited its development. In this work, a biodegradable bimetallic nanoreactor was developed for boosting CDT, in which Fe-doped hollow mesoporous manganese dioxide (HMnO2) was selected as nanocarrier, and the Fe/HMnO2@DOX-GOD@HA nanoprobe was constructed by loading doxorubicin (DOX) and modifying glucose oxidase (GOD) and hyaluronic acid (HA). The glutathione (GSH) responsive degradation of HMnO2 promoted the release of DOX, by which the release rate significantly increased to 96.6%. Moreover, by the GSH depletion, the reduction of Mn2+/Fe2+ achieved strong bimetallic Fenton efficiency, and the hydroxyl radicals (·OH) generation was further enhanced using the self-supplying H2O2 of GOD. Through the active targeting recognition of HA, the bimetallic nanoreactor significantly enriched the tumor accumulation, by which the enhanced antitumor efficacy was realized. Thus, this work developed biodegradable bimetallic nanoreactor by consuming GSH and self-supplying H2O2, and provided a new paradigm for enhancing CDT.

JOURNAL OF BIOMATERIALS SCIENCE. POLYMER EDITION 2024; 35:190-205. [PMID: 37851402 DOI: 10.1080/09205063.2023.2273118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
Nowadays, chemotherapy is a common clinical treatment for cancer, but it still faces many limitations and challenges. Therefore, the combination of chemotherapy and other treatments often enhances the effectiveness of treatments. Herein, an injectable hydrogel of PC10ARGD/Cu2+/DOX based on Cu2+, hydrophilic doxorubicin (DOX), and genetically engineered polypeptide PC10ARGD was prepared. First, Cu2+ was attached to the histidines in the PC10ARGD polypeptide by the coordination reaction to form PC10ARGD/Cu2+ hydrogel, then the PC10ARGD/Cu2+/DOX hydrogel was prepared by encapsulating the DOX into the PC10ARGD/Cu2+ hydrogel. The results of scanning electron microscopy showed that the PC10ARGD/Cu2+/DOX hydrogel displayed loose porous morphology. In vitro, reactive oxygen species production results showed that the PC10ARGD/Cu2+/DOX hydrogel could continuously produce ·OH in the presence of H2O2. In vitro MTT results showed that the PC10ARGD/Cu2+/DOX hydrogel had a good inhibitory effect on cell activity. Flow cytometry further confirmed the antitumor effect of the PC10ARGD/Cu2+/DOX hydrogel. In vivo experiment results showed that the tumor volume of mice treated with the PC10ARGD/Cu2+/DOX hydrogel was significantly inhibited compared with control groups, which was due to the combination of chemodynamic and chemotherapy. The results of body weight and blood analysis of mice showed that the PC10ARGD/Cu2+/DOX hydrogel possessed good biocompatibility.

Abstract
Cancer patients face a significant clinical and socio-economic burden due to increased incidence, mortality, and poor survival. Factors like late diagnosis, recurrence, drug resistance, severe side effects, and poor bioavailability limit the scope of current therapies. There is a need for novel, cost-effective, and safe diagnostic methods, therapeutics to overcome recurrence and drug resistance, and drug delivery vehicles with enhanced bioavailability and less off-site toxicity. Advanced nanomaterial-based research is aiding cancer biologists by providing solutions for issues like hypoxia, tumor microenvironment, low stability, poor penetration, target non-specificity, and rapid drug clearance. Currently, nanozymes and carbon-dots are attractive due to their low cost, high catalytic activity, biocompatibility, and lower toxicity. Nanozymes and carbon-dots are increasingly used in imaging, biosensing, diagnosis, and targeted cancer therapy. Integrating these materials with advanced diagnostic tools like CT scans and MRIs can aid in clinical decision-making and enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy, photothermal, photodynamic, and sonodynamic therapies, with minimal invasion and reduced collateral effects.

Glucose-responsive enzymatic biomimetic nanodots for H 2O 2 self-supplied catalytic photothermal/chemodynamic anticancer therapy. Acta Biomater 2023; 172:441-453. [PMID: 37802309 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.10.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) combined with chemodynamic therapy (CDT) presents an appealing complementary anti-tumor strategy, wherein PTT accelerates the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in CDT and CDT eliminates residual tumor tissues that survive from PTT treatment. However, nanomaterials utilized in PTT/CDT are limited by non-specific damage to the entire organism. Herein, a glucose-responsive enzymatic Fe@HRP-ABTS/GOx nanodot is judiciously designed for tumor-specific PTT/CDT via a simple and clean protein-templated biomimetic mineralization synthesis. By oxidizing glucose in tumor cells, glucose oxidase (GOx) activates glucose-responsive tumor therapy and increases the concentration of H2O2 at the tumor site. More importantly, the self-supplied peroxide hydrogen (H2O2) can convert ABTS (2,2'-Hydrazine-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diamine salt) into oxidized ABTS (oxABTS) through horseradish peroxidase (HRP) catalysis for PTT and photoacoustic (PA) imaging. Furthermore, the Fe2+ arising from the reduction of Fe3+ by overexpressed GSH reacts with H2O2 to generate intensely reactive •OH through the Fenton reaction, concurrently depleting GSH and inducing efficient tumor CDT. The in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate superior cancer cell killing and tumor eradication effect of Fe@HRP-ABTS/GOx nanodot under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation. Collectively, the nanodots provide mutually reinforcing catalytic PTT/CDT anti-tumor strategies for treating liver cancer and potentially other malignancies. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Combinatorial antitumor therapy with nanomedicines presents great prospects for development. However, the limitation of non-specific damage to normal tissues hinders its further clinical application. In this work, we fabricated tumor-selective biomimetic Fe@HRP-ABTS/GOx nanodots for H2O2 self-supplied catalytic photothermal/chemodynamic therapy of tumors. The biomimetic synthesis strategy provides the nanodots with enzymatic activity in response to glucose to produce H2O2. The self-supplied H2O2 initiates photothermal therapy with oxidized ABTS and enhances chemodynamic therapy through simultaneous •OH generation and GSH depletion. Our work provides a new paradigm for developing tumor-selective catalytic nanomedicines and will guide further clinical translation of the enzymatic biomimetic synthesis strategy.

Abstract
Nanozymes have captured significant attention as a versatile and promising alternative to natural enzymes in catalytic applications, with wide-ranging implications for both diagnosis and therapy. However, the limited selectivity exhibited by many nanozymes presents challenges to their efficacy in diagnosis and raises concerns regarding their impact on the progression of disease treatments. In this article, we explore the latest innovations aimed at enhancing the selectivity of nanozymes, thereby expanding their applications in theranostic nanoplatforms. We place paramount importance on the critical development of highly selective nanozymes and present innovative strategies that have yielded remarkable outcomes in augmenting selectivities. The strategies encompass enhancements in analyte selectivity by incorporating recognition units, refining activity selectivity through the meticulous control of structural and elemental composition, integrating synergistic materials, fabricating selective nanomaterials, and comprehensively fine-tuning selectivity via approaches such as surface modification, cascade nanozyme systems, and manipulation of external stimuli. Additionally, we propose optimized approaches to propel the further advancement of these tailored nanozymes while considering the limitations associated with existing techniques. Our ultimate objective is to present a comprehensive solution that effectively addresses the limitations attributed to non-selective nanozymes, thus unlocking the full potential of these catalytic systems in the realm of theranostics.

Abstract
Tumor vaccines have been used to treat cancer. How to efficiently induce tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) secretion with host immune system activation is a key issue in achieving high antitumor immunity. Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a process in which tumor cells upon an external stimulus change from non-immunogenic to immunogenic, leading to enhanced antitumor immune responses. The immune properties of ICD are damage-associated molecular patterns and TAA secretion, which can further promote dendritic cell maturation and antigen presentation to T cells for adaptive immune response provocation. In this review, we mainly summarize the latest studies focusing on nanotechnology-mediated ICD for effective cancer immunotherapy as well as point out the challenges.

Abstract
Considering the chemodynamic therapy and chemotherapy independent of external stimulus witnessing great advantage in the clinical translation, developing a smart nanoplatform that can realize enhanced chemo/chemodynamic synergistic therapy in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is of great significance. Herein, we highlight the enhanced pH-responsive chemo/chemodynamic synergistic cancer therapy based on in situ Cu2+ di-chelation. The alcohol-withdrawal drug disulfiram (DSF) and chemotherapeutic drug mitoxantrone (MTO) were embedded into PEGylated mesoporous CuO (denoted as PEG-CuO@DSF@MTO NPs). The acidic TME triggered the collapse of CuO and the concurrent release of Cu2+, DSF, and MTO. Then, the in situ complexation between Cu2+ and DSF, as well as the coordination between Cu2+ and MTO not only prominently enhanced the chemotherapeutic performance but also triggered the chemodynamic therapy. In vivo mouse model experiments demonstrated that the synergistic therapy can remarkably eliminate tumors. This study provides an interesting strategy to design intelligent nanosystems, which could proceed to clinical translations.

Abstract
The redox homeostasis in tumors enhances their antioxidant defense ability, limiting reactive oxygen species mediated tumor therapy efficacy. The development of strategies for specific and continuous disruption of the redox homeostasis in tumor cells facilitates the improvement of the cancer therapeutic effect by promoting the apoptosis of tumor cells. Herein, a responsively biodegradable targeting multifunctional integrated nanosphere (HDMn-QDs/PEG-FA) is designed to enhance the anti-tumor efficacy by triggering intratumoral cascade reactions to effectively disrupt intracellular redox homeostasis. Once HDMn-QDs/PEG-FA enters tumor cells, manganese dioxide (MnO2 ) shell on the surface of nanosphere consumes glutathione (GSH) to produce Mn2+ , enabling enhanced chemodynamic therapy (CDT) via a Fenton-like reaction and T1 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging. Meanwhile, the degradation of MnO2 can also cause the fluorescence recovery of quantum dots conjugated on the surface of the shell, realizing "turn-on" fluorescence imaging. In addition, the doxorubicin is released because of the cleavage of the embedded SS bond in the hybrid core framework by GSH. A superior synergistic therapeutic efficiency combined CDT and chemotherapy is shown by HDMn-QDs/PEG-FA in vivo. The tumor-inhibition rate reaches to 94.8% and does not cause normal tissue damage due to the good targeting and tumor microenvironment-specific response.

However, little attention has been paid to its effect on the biotherapeutic efficacy of inorganic nanomaterials. Herein, we compare the effects of different calcination atmospheres on the therapeutic efficacy of Fe-V-O (FVO) nanomaterials. We find that compared with FVO nanomaterials synthesized by calcination in air, those prepared by argon calcination have a lower metallic valence state and a higher near-infrared light absorption capacity, hence resulting in significantly better biosafety and higher chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/photothermal therapy (PTT) efficacy. This study demonstrates that the therapeutic efficacy of inorganic nanomaterials can be optimized by employing different thermal treatment atmospheres, which provides new insights into the development of efficient anti-tumor agents.

Abstract
Copper serves as a vital microelement which is widely present in the biosystem, functioning as multi-enzyme active site, including oxidative stress, lipid oxidation and energy metabolism, where oxidation and reduction characteristics are both beneficial and lethal to cells. Since tumor tissue has a higher demand for copper and is more susceptible to copper homeostasis, copper may modulate cancer cell survival through reactive oxygen species (ROS) excessive accumulation, proteasome inhibition and anti-angiogenesis. Therefore, intracellular copper has attracted great interest that multifunctional copper-based nanomaterials can be exploited in cancer diagnostics and antitumor therapy. Therefore, this review explains the potential mechanisms of copper-associated cell death and investigates the effectiveness of multifunctional copper-based biomaterials in the field of antitumor therapy.

Abstract
Most nanozymes in development for medical applications only exhibit single-enzyme-like activity, and are thus limited by insufficient catalytic activity and dysfunctionality in complex pathological microenvironments. To overcome the impediments of limited substrate availabilities and concentrations, some metal-based nanozymes may mimic two or more activities of natural enzymes to catalyze cascade reactions or to catalyze multiple substrates simultaneously, thereby amplifying catalysis. Metal-based nanozymes with multienzyme-like activities (MNMs) may adapt to dissimilar catalytic conditions to exert different enzyme-like effects. These multienzyme-like activities can synergize to realize "self-provision of the substrate," in which upstream catalysts produce substrates for downstream catalytic reactions to overcome the limitation of insufficient substrates in the microenvironment. Consequently, MNMs exert more potent antitumor, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects in preclinical models. This review summarizes the cellular effects and underlying mechanisms of MNMs. Their potential medical utility and optimization strategy from the perspective of clinical requirements are also discussed, with the aim to provide a theoretical reference for the design, development, and therapeutic application of their catalytic effects.

Abstract
An early and accurate cancer diagnosis holds the potential to improve treatment and prognosis. Nevertheless, the complexity of the biological system limits the selectivity of existing approaches and makes tumor imaging in vivo particularly challenging. In this study, tumor-specific fluorescence imaging was achieved by building intelligent dual-lock deoxyribonucleic acid automatons (IDEAs) that employed a DNA walking system standing on ZrMOF@MnO2 multifunctional nanocomposites for controllable molecular recognition. The IDEAs exhibited significantly enhanced fluorescence signals only in the coexistence of both miRNA and GSH of tumor cells, enabling accurate distinguishing of tumor cells from healthy ones. Furthermore, the feasibility and specificity of IDEAs were also validated in vivo with tumor bearing mice successfully. This work highlights the potential of the proposed IDEA strategy for tumor-specific imaging, paving the way for successful precision diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
The slightest change in the extra/intracellular concentration of metal ions results in amplified effects by signaling cascades that regulate both cell fate within the tumor microenvironment and immune status, which influences the network of antitumor immunity through various pathways. Based on the fact that metal ions influence the fate of cancer cells and participate in both innate and adaptive immunity, they are widely applied in antitumor therapy as immune modulators. Moreover, nanomedicine possesses the advantage of precise delivery and responsive release, which can perfectly remedy the drawbacks of metal ions, such as low target selectivity and systematic toxicity, thus providing an ideal platform for metal ion application in cancer treatment. Emerging evidence has shown that immunotherapy applied with nanometallic materials may significantly enhance therapeutic efficacy. Here, we focus on the physiopathology of metal ions in tumorigenesis and discuss several breakthroughs regarding the use of nanometallic materials in antitumor immunotherapeutics. These findings demonstrate the prominence of metal ion-based nanomedicine in cancer therapy and prophylaxis, providing many new ideas for basic immunity research and clinical application. Consequently, we provide innovative insights into the comprehensive understanding of the application of metal ions combined with nanomedicine in cancer immunotherapy in the past few years.

Abstract
The toxic effects of chemotherapy drugs on normal tissues are still a major limiting factor in cancer treatment. In this paper, we report a metal-organic framework (Zn-Co ZIF) with chitosan-coated outer layer as a carrier for the drug adriamycin hydrochloride (DOX), a treatment for liver cancer, as a novel anti-cancer nanodrug-enhanced carrier. Gold nanoparticles, a good photothermal conversion agent, were combined with the target SH-RGD during surface functionalisation to prepare Zn-Co ZIF@DOX-CS-Au-RGD (ZD-CAR), a nanoplatform with good photothermal conversion properties and targeting for combined liver cancer therapy. ZD-CAR was developed after RGD accurately targeted the tumour and entered the tumour microenvironment (TME), it cleaves and releases the liver cancer therapeutic agent (DOX) in a weak acidic environment to effectively kill tumour cells. The metal skeleton cleavage releases Co2+, which catalyzes the production of oxygen from H2O2 to alleviate the tumour hypoxic environment. The dissolved oxygen could reach 14 mg/L after adding 80 mg/mL of ZD-CAR. Meanwhile, gold nanoparticles could convert light energy into heat energy under 808 NIR irradiation to induce local superheating and kill tumour cells. In summary, this study developed a nanoplatform that combines chemo-photothermal-targeted therapy. It has shown good therapeutic effeciency in cellular experiments and performance tests and has promising applications in anti-cancer therapy.

Abstract
Tumor microenvironment (TME) responsive chemodynamic therapy (CDT) showed an important application in inhibiting tumor growth by producing the highly toxic hydroxyl radical (·OH), but insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and overexpressed glutathione (GSH) limited its application. Herein, by integrating photothermal therapy (PTT) and CDT, a new kind of mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA)-based cascade-reaction nanoplatform (MPDA@AuNPs-Cu) was designed for enhanced antitumor therapy, in which ultrasmall gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with glucose oxidase (GOx)-like activity were deposited on MPDA for providing H2O2, and Cu2+ was chelated for GSH-responsive Fenton-like reaction. It was demonstrated that the MPDA@AuNPs-Cu nanoprobe showed high photothermal conversion efficiency and excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, the MPDA@AuNPs-Cu nanoprobe exhibited strong ·OH generation because of H2O2 self-generation and photothermal stimulation. Importantly, compared with MPDA-Cu, MPDA@AuNPs-Cu exhibited enhanced in vitro and in vivo CDT/PTT performance, by which the tumor growth was completely inhibited, achieving TME-responsive antitumor efficacy.

Abstract
Nanozymes are nanomaterials with mimicked enzymatic activity, whose catalytic activity can be designed by changing their physical parameters and chemical composition. With the development of biomedical and material science, artificially created nanozymes have high biocompatibility and can catalyze specific biochemical reactions under biological conditions, thus playing a vital role in regulating physiological activities. Under pathological conditions, natural enzymes are limited in their catalytic capacity by the varying reaction conditions. In contrast, compared to natural enzymes, nanozymes have advantages such as high stability, simplicity of modification, targeting ability, and versatility. As a result, the novel role of nanozymes in medicine, especially in tumor therapy, is gaining increasing attention. In this review, function and application of various nanozymes in the treatment of cancer are summarized. Future exploration paths of nanozymes in cancer therapies based on new insights arising from recent research are outlined.

Abstract
Early and rapid diagnosis of tumors is essential for clinical treatment or management. In contrast to conventional means, bioimaging has the potential to accurately locate and diagnose tumors at an early stage. Fluorescent probe has been developed as an ideal tool to visualize tumor sites and to detect biological molecules which provides a requirement for noninvasive, real-time, precise, and specific visualization of structures and complex biochemical processes in vivo. Rencently, the development of synthetic organic chemistry and new materials have facilitated the development of near-infrared small molecular sensing platforms and nanoimaging platforms. This provides a competitive tool for various fields of bioimaging such as biological structure and function imaging, disease diagnosis, in situ at the in vivo level, and real-time dynamic imaging. This review systematically focused on the recent progress of small molecular near-infrared fluorescent probes and nano-fluorescent probes as new biomedical imaging tools in the past 3-5 years, and it covers the application of tumor biomarker sensing, tumor microenvironment imaging, and tumor vascular imaging, intraoperative guidance and as an integrated platform for diagnosis, aiming to provide guidance for researchers to design and develop future biomedical diagnostic tools.

Abstract
Pyroptosis is a new type of regulated cell death that is of great interest for developing new strategies for treating cancers. This potential is however greatly limited by the low efficiency and selectivity of current strategies to regulate cancer cell pyroptosis. Herein, we report biodegradable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for intracellular delivery of glucose oxidase (GOx) that promotes cascade biocatalysis inside cells and selectively induces cancer cell pyroptosis. We show that the self-assembly of Cu2+ and 4,4'-azobisbenzoic acid along with GOx affords protein-encapsulated GOx@Cu MOF that efficiently delivers GOx into cells. In addition, the tumor-cell-overexpressed NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) can trigger the reduction of 4,4'-azobisbenzoic acid and the degradation of GOx@Cu MOF, releasing GOx to catalyze glucose oxidation and produce excessive hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) intracellularly. Furthermore, released Cu2+ from Cu MOF could be reduced to Cu+ by intracellular glutathione (GSH), promoting Fenton-like reaction with H2O2 to continuously generate a hydroxyl radical that induces cancer cell pyroptosis and prohibits tumor cell growth. We anticipate the strategy of harnessing biodegradable MOFs for protein delivery, and intracellular biocatalysis provides a powerful approach to regulate tumor cell pyroptosis for advanced therapeutic development.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy has become an emerging cancer treatment strategy, in which tumor cells are killed through toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) produced by the Fenton reaction. Nevertheless, low ROS generation efficiency and ROS depletion by cellular antioxidant systems are still the main obstacles in chemodynamic therapy. In the present work, we propose a dually enhanced chemodynamic therapy obtained by inhibiting ˙OH consumption and promoting ˙OH production based on the administration of bimetallic sulfide Co3-xCuxS4 nanoparticles functionalized by polyethylene glycol. These bimetallic nanoparticles display glutathione depleting and photothermal properties. The nanoparticles are gradually degraded in a tumor microenvironment, resulting in Co2+ and Cu2+ release. The released Co2+ triggers a Fenton-like reaction that turns endogenous hydrogen peroxide into highly toxic ˙OH. In the cellular environment, Cu2+ ions are reduced to Cu+ by endogenous GSH, which decreases the intracellular antioxidant capacity and additionally up-regulates ˙OH production via the Cu+-induced Fenton-like reaction. Moreover, under near-infrared light irradiation, the bimetallic nanoparticles display a photothermal conversion efficacy of 46.7%, which not only improves chemodynamic therapy via boosting a Fenton-like reaction but results in photothermal therapy through hyperthermia. Both in vitro cancer cell killing and in vivo tumor ablation experiments show that the bimetallic nanoparticles display outstanding therapeutic efficacy and negligible systemic toxicity, indicating their anticancer potential.

Abstract
Tumor acidic environment-activated combination therapy holds great promise to significantly decrease side effects, circumvent multiple drug resistance, and improve therapeutic outcomes for cancer treatment. Herein, Sorafenib/ZnPc(PS)4@FeIII-TA nanoparticles (SPFT) are designed with acid-environment turned-on fluorescence to report the activation of triple therapy including photodynamic, chemodynamic, and chemotherapy on hepatocellular carcinoma. The SPFT are composed of SP cores formulated via self-assembly of sorafenib and ZnPc(PS)4, with high drug loading efficiency, and FeIII-TA shells containing FeCl3 and tannic acid. Importantly, the nanoparticles suppress reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation of ZnPc(PS)4 due to their formation in nanoparticles, while assisting simultaneous uptake of the uploaded drugs in cancer cells. The tumor acidic environment initiates FeIII-TA decomposition and accelerates a chemodynamic reaction between FeII and H2O2 to generate toxic •OH. Then, the SP core is decomposed to separate ZnPc(PS)4 and sorafenib, which leads to fluorescence turning-on of ZnPc(PS)4, expedited photodynamic reactions, and burst release of sorafenib. Notably, SPFT shows low dark cytotoxicity to normal cells but exerts high potency on hepatocellular carcinoma cells under near-infrared light irradiation, which is much more potent than either sorafenib or ZnPc(PS)4 alone. This research offers a facile nanomedicine design strategy for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Cancer is a serious health problem which increasingly causes morbidity and mortality worldwide. It causes abnormal and uncontrolled cell division. Traditional cancer treatments include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and so on. These traditional therapies suffer from high toxicity and arouse safety concern in normal area and have difficulty in accurately targeting tumour. Recently, a variety of nanomaterials could be used for cancer diagnosis and therapy. Nanomaterials have several advantages, e.g., high concentration in tumour via targeting design, reduced toxicity in normal area and controlled drug release after various rational designs. They can combine with many types of biomaterials in order to improve biocompatibility. In this review, we outlined the latest research on the use of bioresponsive nanomaterials for various cancer imaging modalities (magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography and phototacoustic imaging) and imaging-guided therapy means (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy), followed by discussing the challenges and future perspectives of this bioresponsive nanomaterials in biomedicine.
