Abstract
Stimuli-responsive drug delivery carriers, particularly those exhibiting pH sensitivity, have attracted significant scholarly interest due to their promising potential in anticancer therapeutic applications. This phenomenon can primarily be ascribed to the inherently acidic nature of tumor microenvironments. However, pH-responsive carriers frequently require the incorporation of functional groups or materials sensitive to pH changes. Given the pH-sensitive characteristics of metal coordination with natural small-molecule drugs, organometallic supramolecules present a facile and effective strategy for integrating pH-responsive behavior into these systems. Meanwhile, utilizing the natural compound luteolin in conjunction with iron ions (Fe3+) through the advanced engineering technique of flash nanoprecipitation (FNP) results in the synthesis of stable, highly loaded nanoparticles (NPs) exhibiting a supramolecular photothermal effect. Our experimental findings substantiate that the photothermal effect persists over time, even after the pH-responsive release phase has ended. Consequently, these polymeric pH-responsive metallic supramolecular nanoparticles integrate chemotherapy and photothermal therapy, creating a synergistic approach to cancer treatment. This bifunctional platform, which exhibits both pH-responsive and photothermal properties, presents a highly promising avenue for biomedical applications, particularly in the area of tumor therapies. Its dual function offers a potentially efficacious approach to tumor treatment.

Abstract
Cancer, as the foremost challenge among human diseases, has plagued medical professionals for many years. While there have been numerous treatment approaches in clinical practice, they often cause additional harm to patients. The emergence of nanotechnology has brought new directions for cancer treatment, which can deliver anticancer drugs specifically to tumor areas. This article first introduces the application scenarios of nanotherapies and treatment strategies of nanomedicine. Then, the noteworthy characteristics exhibited by biopolymer materials were described, which make biopolymers stand out in polymeric nanomedicine delivery. Next, we focus on summarizing the state-of-art studies of five categories of proteins (Albumin, Gelatin, Silk fibroin, Zein, Ferritin), nine varieties of polysaccharides (Chitosan, Starch, Hyaluronic acid, Dextran, cellulose, Fucoidan, Carrageenan, Lignin, Pectin) and liposomes in the field of anticancer drug delivery. Finally, we also provide a summary of the advantages and limitations of these biopolymers, discuss the prevailing impediments to their application, and discuss in detail the prospective research directions. This review not only helps readers understand the current development status of nano anticancer drug delivery systems based on biopolymers, but also is helpful for readers to understand the properties of various biopolymers and find suitable solutions in this field through comparative reading.

Abstract
Immunosuppressive elements within the tumor microenvironment are the primary drivers of tumorigenesis and malignant advancement. The presence, as well as the crosstalk between myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), osteosarcoma-associated macrophages (OS-Ms), regulatory T cells (Tregs), and endothelial cells (ECs) with osteosarcoma cells cause the poor prognosis of OS. In addition, the consequent immunosuppressive factors favor the loss of treatment potential. Nanoparticles offer a means to dynamically and locally manipulate immuno-nanoparticles, which present a promising strategy for transforming OS-TME. Additionally, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) technology is effective in combating OS. This review summarizes the essential mechanisms of immunosuppressive cells in the OS-TME and the current immune-associated strategies. The last part highlights the limitations of existing therapies and offers insights into future research directions.

Abstract
The past two decades have witnessed a rapid progress in the development of surface charge-reversible nanoparticles (NPs) for drug delivery and diagnosis. These NPs are able to elegantly address the polycation dilemma. Converting their surface charge from negative/neutral to positive at the target site, they can substantially improve delivery of drugs and diagnostic agents. By specific stimuli like a shift in pH and redox potential, enzymes, or exogenous stimuli such as light or heat, charge reversal of NP surface can be achieved at the target site. The activated positive surface charge enhances the adhesion of NPs to target cells and facilitates cellular uptake, endosomal escape, and mitochondrial targeting. Because of these properties, the efficacy of incorporated drugs as well as the sensitivity of diagnostic agents can be essentially enhanced. Furthermore, charge-reversible NPs are shown to overcome the biofilm formed by pathogenic bacteria and to shuttle antibiotics directly to the cell membrane of these microorganisms. In this review, the up-to-date design of charge-reversible NPs and their emerging applications in drug delivery and diagnosis are highlighted.

Abstract
Pesticides are widely used to increase agricultural productivity, however, weak adhesion and deposition lead to low efficient utilization. Herein, we prepare a nanopesticide formulation (tebuconazole nanopesticides) which is leaf-adhesive, and water-dispersed via a rapid nanoparticle precipitation method, flash nanoprecipitation, using temperature-responsive copolymers poly-(2-(dimethylamino)ethylmethylacrylate)-b-poly(ε-caprolactone) as the carrier. Compared with commercial suspensions, the encapsulation by the polymer improves the deposition of TEB, and the contact angle on foliage is lowered by 40.0°. Due to the small size and strong van der Waals interactions, the anti-washing efficiency of TEB NPs is increased by 37% in contrast to commercial ones. Finally, the acute toxicity of TEB NPs to zebrafish shows a more than 25-fold reduction as compared to commercial formulation indicating good biocompatibility of the nanopesticides. This work is expected to enhance pesticide droplet deposition and adhesion, maximize the use of pesticides, tackling one of the application challenges of pesticides.

Abstract
Mixing-induced nanoprecipitation (MINP) is an efficient, controllable, scalable, versatile, and cost-effective technique for the preparation of nanoparticles. In addition to the formulation of drugs, MINP has attracted tremendous interest in other fields. In this review, we highlight recent advances in the preparation of nanoparticles with complex nanostructures via MINP and their emerging applications beyond biomedicine. First, the mechanisms of nanoprecipitation and four mixing approaches for MINP are briefly discussed. Next, three strategies for the preparation of nanoparticles with complex nanostructures including sequential nanoprecipitation, controlling phase separation, and incorporating inorganic nanoparticles, are summarized. Then, emerging applications including the engineering of catalytic nanomaterials, environmentally friendly photovoltaic inks, colloidal surfactants for the preparation of Pickering emulsions, and green templates for the synthesis of nanomaterials, are reviewed. Furthermore, we discuss the structure-function relationships to gain more insight into design principles for the development of functional nanoparticles via MINP. Finally, the remaining issues and future applications are discussed. This review will stimulate the development of nanoparticles with complex nanostructures and their broader applications beyond biomedicine.

Abstract
The bacterial colonization of surfaces and subsequent biofilm formation are a great threat in medical therapy and clinical diagnosis. The complex internal structure and composition sets an enormous obstacle for the localization and removal of biofilms. In this study, we proposed a novel biofilm-targeted nanocontainer with successive responsive property toward pH and ATP for precise localization and simultaneous bacterial eradication, with an acidic and adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-rich microenvironment within biofilms, formed due to the accumulation of fatty acids and ATP in the three-dimensional enclosed structure, integrated as two successive indicators to improve the precision of biofilm identification and removal. The biofilm-targeted nanocontainer was composed of a ATP-responsive zeolitic imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90) core loaded with Rho 6G and doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) encapsulated in the pH-responsive amorphous calcium carbonate/poly(acrylic acid) (ACC/PAA) shell. In the presence of biofilms, the ACC/PAA shell and ZIF-90 core were successively degraded by the accumulated H+ and ATP within biofilms, resulting in the release of fluorescence indicators and antimicrobial agents. On the other hand, to meet the application requirements of different biofilm scenarios, the pH response ability of the nanocontainers could be adjusted by changing the metallic ions (Ni2+, Zn2+, and Cu2+) doped into the structure of the ACC/PAA shell. Owing to excellent water dispersion of the pH/ATP double-responsive ZIF-90@Zn-ACC/PAA nanocontainer, precise localization and simultaneous bacterial eradication was successfully realized via a simple spray process. The successive pH/ATP two-step unlocking processes endowed the nanocontainers high precision for localization and simultaneous eradication of biofilms, which made the proposed nanocontainers high promising in food safety and medical treatment.

Abstract
Transition-metal catalysts (TMCs) effect bioorthogonal transformations that enable the generation of therapeutic agents in situ, minimizing off-target effects. The encapsulation of insoluble TMCs into polymeric nanoparticles to generate "polyzymes" has vastly expanded their applicability in biological environments by enhancing catalyst solubility and stability. However, commonly used precipitation approaches provide limited encapsulation efficiency in polyzyme fabrication and result in a low catalytic activity. Herein, we report the creation of polyzymes with increased catalyst loading and optimized turnover efficiency using flash nanoprecipitation (FNP). Polyzymes with controlled size and catalyst loading were fabricated by tuning the process conditions of FNP. The biological applicability of polyzymes was demonstrated by efficiently transforming a non-toxic prodrug into the active drug within cancer cells.

Abstract
Zein- and chitosan-based nanoparticles have been described as promising carrier systems for food, biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. However, the manufacture of size-controlled zein and chitosan particles is challenging. In this study, an adapted anti-solvent nanoprecipitation method was developed. The effects of the concentration of zein and chitosan and the pH of the collection solution on the properties of the zein–honey–chitosan nanoparticles were investigated. Flash nanoprecipitation was demonstrated as a rapid, scalable, single-step method to achieve the self-assembly of zein–honey–chitosan nanoparticles. The nanoparticles size was tuned by varying certain formulation parameters, including the total concentration and ratio of the polymers. The zein–honey–chitosan nanoparticles’ hydrodynamic diameter was below 200 nm and the particles were stable for 30 days. Vitamin C was used as a hydrophilic model substance and efficiently encapsulated into these nanoparticles. This study opens a promising pathway for one-step producing zein–honey–chitosan nanoparticles by flash nanoprecipitation for hydrophilic compounds’ encapsulation.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Polymer nanoparticles (NPs) have a very high potential for applications notably in the biomedical field. However, synthetic polymer NPs cannot yet concurrence the functionalities of proteins, their natural counterparts, notably in terms of size, control over internal structure and interactions with biological environments. We hypothesize that kinetic trapping of polymers bearing oppositely charged groups in NPs could bring a new level of control and allow mimicking the surfaces of proteins. EXPERIMENTS Here, the assembly of mixed-charge polymer NPs through nanoprecipitation of mixtures of oppositely charged polymers is studied. Two series of copolymers made of ethyl methacrylate and 1 to 25 mol% of either methacrylic acid or a trimethylammonium bearing methacrylate are synthesized. These carboxylic acid or trimethylammonium bearing polymers are then mixed in different ratios and nanoprecipitated. The influence of the charge fraction, mixing ratio of the polymers, and precipitation conditions on NP size and surface charge is studied. FINDINGS Using this approach, NPs of less than 25 nm with tunable surface charge from +40 mV to -40 mV are assembled. The resulting NPs are sensitive to pH and certain NP formulations have an isoelectric point allowing repeated charge reversal. Encapsulation of fluorescent dyes yields very bright fluorescent NPs, whose interactions with cells are studied through fluorescence microscopy. The obtained results show the potential of nanoprecipitation of oppositely charged polymers for the design of NPs with precisely tuned surface properties.

Abstract
As a consequence of their intrinsic advantageous properties, luminogens that show aggregation-induced emission (AIEgens) have received increasing global interest for a wide range of applications. Whereas general synthetic methods towards AIEgens largely rely on tedious procedures and limited reaction types, various innovative synthetic methods have now emerged as complementary, and even alternative, strategies. In this Review, we systematically highlight advancements made in metal-catalyzed functionalization and metal-free-promoted pathways for the construction of AIEgens over the past five years, and briefly illustrate new perspectives in this area. The development of innovative synthetic procedures will enable the facile synthesis of AIEgens with great structural diversity for multifunctional applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The enhancement of tumor retention and cellular uptake of drugs are important factors in maximizing anticancer therapy and minimizing side effects of encapsulated drugs. Herein, a delivery nanoplatform, armed with a pH-triggered charge-reversal capability and self-amplifiable reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced drug release, is constructed by encapsulating doxorubicin (DOX) in pH/ROS-responsive polymeric micelle. RESULTS The surface charge of this system was converted from negative to positive from pH 7.4 to pH 6.8, which facilitated the cellular uptake. In addition, methionine-based system was dissociated in a ROS-rich and acidic intracellular environment, resulting in the release of DOX and α-tocopheryl succinate (TOS). Then, the exposed TOS segments further induced the generation of ROS, leading to self-amplifiable disassembly of the micelles and drug release. CONCLUSIONS We confirms efficient DOX delivery into cancer cells, upregulation of tumoral ROS level and induction of the apoptotic capability in vitro. The system exhibits outstanding tumor inhibition capability in vivo, indicating that dual stimuli nano-system has great potential to function as an anticancer drug delivery platform.

Abstract
To overcome biological barriers for nanoparticles (NPs) efficaciously accumulated at tumor sites, as well as enhancing the performance of drug delivery systems, a carrier-free nanoparticle based on charge reversal is designed for improved synergetic chemo-phototherapy for cancer treatment. In this system, doxorubicin (Dox) and zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) are self-assembled through noncovalent interactions (π-π stacking, hydrophobic forces) to avoid the possible toxicity of excipient, complex chemical conjugations and batch-to-batch variation. A trace amount of poly(2-(di-methylamino) ethylmethacrylate)- poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate]- poly(2-(dimethylamino) ethylmethacrylate (PDMAEMA-PHB-PDMAEMA) is modified on the surface of Dox-ZnPc to construct the novel nanoparticles, namely DZP, with long-term stability, and with a dual-drug load content of up to ≈90%. The drug delivery system (DDS) can effectively decrease its toxicity among physical circulation and increase the accumulation at the tumor site. Moreover, the developed DZP nanoparticles show excellent photo-chemotherapy, photoacoustic (PA) and fluorescence (FL) imaging characteristics for multimodal imaging-guided synergetic therapy.

Abstract
Variations in physiological parameters (i.e., pH, redox potential, and ions) for distinct types of diseases make them attractive targets. Ionizable groups capable of pH-dependent charge conversion impart pH-switchable materials under acid condition through the protonation effect, which stimulates the emergence of various pH-inspired materials. However, it is confusing to distinguish preferable groups for high-efficiency drug-delivery vehicles attributing to the lack of perceiving the relationship between protonation and activity. Herein, we developed a series of bioinspired ionizable glycomimetics responses to the ambient variation from physiological environment (pH 7.4) to bacterial infectious acidic microenvironment (pH 6.0) to explore the protonation-activity relationship of various ionizable groups. The nanoparticles are coated with bacterial adhesion molecules galactose and fucose to target Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Moreover, the particle cores were composed of ionizable polymers responding to acidic microenvironment changes and entrapped antibiotic payload. Ionizable glyconanoparticles targeted bacteria and local cues as triggers to transfer payloads in on-demand patterns for the inhibition of bacteria-related infection. Significantly, we find that the nanoparticles with the pH-sensitive block of ionizable poly(2-(diisopropylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (pDPA) exhibit predominant bacterial adhesion and killing and growth inhibition of biofilm in acid environment (pH 6.0) due to the ionizable polymer protonation effect with more positive charge cooperated with the lectin-targeted effect of polysaccharide causing a huge bacterial aggregation and a highly favorable germicidal effect. The nanoparticles with poly(2-(hexamethyleneimino)ethyl methacrylate) (pHMEMA) have suboptimal antibacterial activity but advanced protonation at pH 6.3 compared to pDPA at 6.1, suggesting its selection as an applicable pH-switchable group for a slightly higher acid microenvironment like tumor (pH 6.9-6.5) because of the efficient performance after protonation than at deprotonation. On the other hand, the glycomimetic containing poly(2-(dibutylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (pDBA) as a pH-sensitive moiety displayed weak antimicrobial activity and superior stability before protonation (pH 4.7), which make it possible to prevent premature drug leakage, suggesting that pDBA is a good candidate to be applied to construct pH-sensitive drug-delivery carriers for the treatment of bacteria-related infection with a low acidic microenvironment. Overall, the structure-activity relationship of ionizable glycomimetics for the inhibition of bacteria signifies not only the development of a drug-delivery system but also the mechanism-dependent treatment of nanomedicine for infectious diseases.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Half of all patients develop liver metastases, presenting unique challenges for their treatment. The shortcomings of conventional chemotherapy has encouraged the use of nanomedicines; the application of nanotechnology in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. In spite of technological improvements in nanotechnology, the complexity of biological systems hinders the prospect of nanomedicines being applied in cancer therapy at the present time. This review highlights current biological barriers and discusses aspects of tumor biology together with the physicochemical features of the nanocarrier, that need to be considered in order to develop effective nanotherapeutics for colorectal cancer patients with liver metastases. It becomes clear that incorporating an interdisciplinary approach when developing nanomedicines should assure appropriate disease-driven design and that this will form a critical step in improving their clinical translation. This article is characterized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease.

Abstract
Facile fabrication of difunctional nanoparticles (NPs) for pesticide delivery and imaging is still a fascinating challenge. Here, water-dispersible difunctional NPs were developed using flash nanoprecipitation (FNP) where self-assembling amphiphilic block copolymers were used to encapsulate a highly hydrophobic model pesticide, Lambda-cyhalothrin, and the fluorescent dye Nile red. The particle size (ranging from 158 to 280 nm) and fluorescence property of NPs could be controlled by varying the flow rate or Nile red feed concentration. The aggregation state and rearrangement of the dye molecules in the NPs were also investigated. IVIS imaging and confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis demonstrated that the resulting difunctional nanopesticide particles could allow accurate in situ tracking of the pesticide on the leaf surface, while effectively avoiding interference from chlorophyll autofluorescence. The difunctional NP suspension maintained high insecticidal activity and stability. This work demonstrates the feasibility and great potential of the FNP method in universal fabrication of multifunctional NPs with in situ pesticide tracing and crop protection capabilities.

Abstract
Accomplishing efficient delivery of a nanomedicine to the tumor site will encounter two contradictions as follows: 1) a contradiction between prolonged circulation time and endocytosis by cancer cells; 2) a dilemma between the stability of nanomedicine during blood circulation and intracellular drug release. While developing a nanomedicine which can solve the above two contradictions simultaneously is still a challenge, here, a multi-stimuli-responsive polymeric prodrug (PLys-co-(PLys-DA)-co-(PLys-SS-PTX))-b-PLGLAG-mPEG (P-PEP-SS-PTX-DA) is synthesized which is multi-sensitive to overexpressed matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), low pH, and high concentration of glutathione in tumors. The P-PEP-SS-PTX-DA can be dePEGylated and reversed from negative at normal physiological pH to positive charge at tumor extracellular microenvironment; in this way, it can solve the contradiction between prolonged circulation time and endocytosis by cancer cells. Owing to the high reductive conditions in cancer cells, P-PEP-SS-PTX-DA is ruptured to release paclitaxel (PTX) intracellular efficiently; therefore, it can resolve the dilemma between the stability of nanomedicine during blood circulation and intracellular drug release. These indicate that the multi-stimuli-responsive polymeric prodrug has potential application prospects in drug delivery and cancer therapy.

Polymers (Basel) 2019; 11:E1470. [PMID: 31505799 PMCID: PMC6780542 DOI: 10.3390/polym11091470] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2019] [Revised: 08/30/2019] [Accepted: 09/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
There is an urgent need for new strategies that allow the simultaneous detection and control of drug delivery. By making use of supramolecular host-guest interactions, a kind of pseudopolyrotaxanes, as a visualizable nanoscale drug carrier has been constructed by self-assembly of cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) with methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-block-quaternized poly(4-vinyl pyridine) (mPEG-b-QP4VP) using 4-(chloromethyl)benzonitrile. Simple addition of CB[7] into an aqueous solution of mPEG-b-QP4VP resulted in noncovalent attachment of CB[7] to 4-cyanobenzyl-containing polymers, transforming the nonemissive mPEG-b-QP4VP micelles into highly fluorescent micelles. These pseudopolyrotaxanes micelles exhibited remarkable supramolecular assembly-induced emission enhancement and excellent biocompatibility, showing great potential for bioimaging applications. In addition, the efficient cellular uptake of the developed pseudopolyrotaxanes micelles loaded with the anticancer drug doxorubicin was a promising platform for simultaneous cell imaging and drug delivery, thereby widening their application in cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Electrostatic interaction is a strong, dominant nonspecific interaction which was extensively studied in protein-nanoparticle (NP) interactions [ Lounis , F. M. ; J. Phys. Chem. B 2017 , 121 , 2684 - 2694 ; Tavares , G. M. ; Langmuir 2015 , 31 , 12481 - 12488 ; Antonov , M. ; Biomacromolecules 2010 , 11 , 51 - 59 ], whereas the role of hydrophobic interaction arising from the abundant hydrophobic residues of globule proteins upon protein-NP binding between the proteins and charged nanoparticles has rarely been studied. In this work, a series of positively charged magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were prepared via atom transfer radical polymerization and surface hydrophobicity differentiation was achieved through postpolymerization quaternization by different halohydrocarbons. The ionic strength- and hydrophobicity-responsive binding of these MNPs toward β-lactoglobulin (BLG) was studied by both qualitative and quantitative methods including turbidimetric titration, dynamic light scattering, and isothermal titration calorimetry. Judged from the critical binding pH and binding constant for MNP-BLG complexation, the dependence of binding affinity on surface hydrophobicity exhibited an interesting shift with increasing ionic strength, which means that the MNPs with higher surface hydrophobicity exhibits weaker binding affinity at lower ionic strength but stronger affinity at higher ionic strength. This interesting observation could be attributed to the difference in ionic strength responsiveness for hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. In this way, the well-tuned binding pattern could be achieved with optimized binding affinity by controlling the surface hydrophobicity of MNPs and ionic strength, thus endowing this system with great potential to fabricate separation and delivery system with high selectivity and efficiency.
