Abstract
Conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs or Pdots) have become increasingly popular fluorophores for multimodal applications that combine imaging with phototherapeutic effects. Reports of CPNs in photodynamic therapy applications typically focus on their ability to generate singlet oxygen. Alternatively, CPN excited states can interact with oxygen to form superoxide radical anion and a CPN-based hole polaron, both of which can have deleterious effects on fluorescence properties. Here, we demonstrate that CPNs prepared from the common conjugated polymer poly[(9,9-dioctylfluorenyl-2,7-diyl)-alt-co-(1,4-benzo-{2,1',3}-thiadiazole)] (PFBT, also known as F8BT) generate superoxide upon irradiation. We use the same CPNs to detect superoxide by doping them with a superoxide-responsive hydrocyanine dye developed by Murthy and co-workers. Superoxide induces off-to-on fluorescence switching by converting quenching hydrocyanine dyes to fluorescent cyanine dyes that act as fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) acceptors for PFBT chromophores. Amplified FRET from the multichromophoric CPNs yields fluorescence signal intensities that are nearly 50 times greater than when the dye is excited directly or over 100 times greater when signal readout is from the CPN channel. The dye loading level governs the maximum amount of superoxide that induces a change in fluorescence properties and also influences the rate of superoxide generation by furnishing competitive excited state deactivation pathways. These results suggest that CPNs can be used to deliver superoxide in applications in which it is desirable and provide a caution for fluorescence-based CPN applications in which superoxide can damage fluorophores.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Targeting and uptake are the most important strategies for enhancing the efficacy of cancer photothermal therapy (PTT) and reducing damage to surrounding normal tissues. In this study, a kind of nanophotosensitizer based on nanobubbles and TiN was prepared for synergetic therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS The photothermal agent titanium nitride (TiN) was wrapped in nanobubbles by membrane hydration method and verified in cells and animals. CCK-8, cell death staining, and JC-1 were used to verify the pernicious effect of photothermal combined with Ultrasound Targeted Nanobubble Destruction (UTND) and then injected into animals through the tail vein to observe its photothermal effect and in vivo inhibitory effect. A hemolysis test and body weight change verified its safety. RESULTS The average diameter of the novel nanophotosensitizer was 300.3 ± 12.7 nm, with a consistent nanospheres morphology. The UTND technology was utilized to improve the penetration of TiN into tumor cells through the physical energy of ultrasound irradiation. The therapeutic effects of the synergistic therapy of UTND and PTT were verified in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSION The research has established NBs@C3F8-TiN as a suitable ultrasound photothermal agent due to its appropriate size and efficient photothermal efficacy for visual photothermal therapy for HCC.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has become a promising cancer treatment approach with superior advantages. However, it remains a grand challenge to develop tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive photosensitizers (PSs) for tumor-targeting precise PDT. Herein, the coupling Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) probiotics with 2D CoCuMo layered-double-hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets (LA&LDH) is reported as a TME-responsive platform for precise NIR-II PDT. The CoCuMo-LDH nanosheets loaded on LA can be transformed from crystalline into amorphous through etching by the LA-metabolite-enabled low pH and overexpressed glutathione. The TME-induced in situ amorphization of CoCuMo-LDH nanosheets can boost its photodynamic activity for singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) generation under 1270 nm laser irradiation with relative 1 O2 quantum yield of 1.06, which is the highest among previously reported NIR-excited PSs. In vitro and in vivo assays prove that the LA&LDH can effectively achieve complete cell apoptosis and tumor eradication under 1270 nm laser irradiation. This study proves that the probiotics can be used as a tumor-targeting platform for highly efficient precise NIR-II PDT.

Abstract
Theranostics with integrations of both imaging and therapeutic elements can enable early diagnosis and effective treatment of cancer. Herein, we report the development of radioactive semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (rSPNs) for multimodal cancer theranostics. Such rSPNs constructed through labeling poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) grafted SPNs with iodine-131 (131I) exhibit ideal photothermal property, excellent singlet oxygen (1O2) generating ability and good radiolabeling stability. Owing to their small particle dimension and PEG surface corona, rSPNs show an effective accumulation into subcutaneous tumors of living mice after systemic administration. The good fluorescence property and stable radiolabeling of rSPNs enable contrast signals for near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) dual-model imaging of tumors. Moreover, rSPNs provide combinational action of photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT) and radiotherapy under NIR laser irradiation, resulting in much higher therapeutic efficacy in inhibiting tumor growth and metastasis relative to SPNs-mediated treatment. This study thus offers a multifunctional organic nanosystem for multimodal cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Nanomedicines have the potential to provide advanced therapeutic strategies in combating tumors. Polymer-prodrug-based nanomedicines are particularly attractive in cancer therapies owing to the maximum drug loading, prolonged blood circulation, and reduced premature leakage and side effects in comparison with conventional nanomaterials. However, the difficulty in precisely tuning the composition and drug loading of polymer-drug conjugates leads to batch-to-batch variations of the prodrugs, thus significantly restricting their clinical translation. Polyprodrug nanomedicines inherit the numerous intrinsic advantages of polymer-drug conjugates and exhibit well-controlled composition and drug loading via direct polymerization of therapeutic monomers, representing a promising nanomedicine for clinical tumor therapies. In this review, recent advances in the development of polyprodrug nanomedicines are summarized for tumor elimination. Various types of polyprodrug nanomedicines and the corresponding properties are first summarized. The unique advantages of polyprodrug nanomedicines and their key roles in various tumor therapies are further highlighted. Finally, current challenges and the perspectives on future research of polyprodrug nanomedicines are discussed.

Abstract
Second near-infrared (NIR-II) window type-I photosensitizers have intrinsic advantages in photodynamic/photothermal therapy (PDT/PTT) of some malignant tumors with deep infiltration, large size, complicated location, and low possibility of surgery/radiotherapy. Herein, three chalcogen-element-based donor-acceptor-type semiconducting polymers (poly[2,2″-((E)-4,4″-bis(2-octyldodecyl)-[6,6″-bithieno[3,2-b]pyrrolylidene]-5,5″(4H,4″H)-dione)-alt-2,5-(thiophene)] (PTS), poly[2,2″-((E)-4,4″-bis(2-octyldodecyl)-[6,6″-bithieno[3,2-b]pyrrolylidene]-5,5″(4H,4″H)-dione)-alt-2,5-(selenophene)] (PTSe), and poly[2,2″-((E)-4,4″-bis(2-octyldodecyl)-[6,6″-bithieno[3,2-b]pyrrolylidene]-5,5″(4H,4'H)-dione)-alt-2,5-(tellurophene)] (PTTe)) are synthesized and fully characterized, demonstrating strong absorption in the NIR-II region. Upon adjusting the chalcogen elements, the intramolecular charge-transfer characteristics and the heavy-atom effect are tuned to enhance the intersystem crossing rate, improving the photodynamic effect. Moreover, the energy levels and Gibbs free energies are tuned to facilitate the type-I photodynamic process. As a result, PTTe nanoparticles (NPs) produce superoxide anion radicals (O2 •- ) more efficiently and demonstrate higher photothermal conversion efficiency than PTS and PTSe NPs upon NIR-II (1064 nm) laser irradiation, exhibiting unprecedented NIR-II type-I PDT/PTT performance in vitro and in vivo. This work provides ideas for achieving high-performance NIR-II type-I PDT/PTT semiconducting polymers for hypoxic oncotherapy.

Abstract
The development of cancer diagnostic imaging and treatment is a major concern worldwide. By integrating imaging and therapy into one theranostic nanoplatform for simultaneously detecting tumors, evaluating the targeting ability and timely monitoring therapeutic responses provide more opportunities for precision medicine. Among various theranostic nanosystems, a series of single-component nanoparticles (NPs) have been developed for "all-in-one" theranostics, which presents the unique properties of facile preparation, simple composition, defined structure, high reproducibility, and excellent biocompatibility. Specifically, utilizing single-component NPs for both diagnostics and therapeutics can reduce the possible numerous untoward side effects and risks to the living body. In this review, the recent progress of multifunctional single-component NPs in the applications of cancer theranostics is systematically summarized. Notably, the structure design, categories of NPs, targeted strategies, biomedical applications, potential barriers, challenges, and prospects for the future clinical practice of this rapidly growing field are discussed.

Abstract
Nanotheranostics is an emerging frontier of personalized medicine research particularly for cancer, which is the second leading cause of death. Supramolecular aspects in theranostics are quite allured to achieve more regulation and controlled features. Supramolecular nanotheranostics architecture is focused on engineering of modular supramolecular assemblies benefitting from their mutable and stimuli-responsive properties which confer an ultimate potential for the fabrication of unified innovative nanomedicines with controlled features. Amalgamation of supramolecular approaches to nano-based features further equip the potential of designing novel approaches to overcome limitations seen by the conventional theranostic strategies, for curing even the lethal diseases and endowing personalized therapeutics with optimistic prognosis, endorsing their clinical translation. Among many potential nanocarriers for theranostics, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have shown various promising advances in theranostics and their formulation can be tailored for several applications. Despite the great advancement in cancer nanotheranostics, there are still many challenges that need to be highlighted to fill the literature gap. For this purpose, herein, we have presented a systematic overview on the subject and proposed LNPs as the potential material to manage cancer via non-invasive approaches by highlighting the use of supramolecular approaches to make them robust for cancer theranostics. We have concluded the review by entailing the future perspectives of lipid nanotheranostics towards clinical translation.

Abstract
In recent years, more and more research enthusiasm has been devoted to the development of emerging two-dimensional (2D) monoelement materials (Xenes) and explored potential applications in various fields, especially biomedicine and bioimaging. The inspiring results attribute to their excellent physicochemical properties, including adjustable band gap, surface electronic layout characteristics, and so on, making it easier for surface modification in order to meet designated needs. As a popular interdisciplinary research frontier, a variety of methods for fabricating 2D Xenes have recently been adopted for pre-preparing future practical bioimaging applications, which implies that these materials will have broad clinical application prospects in the future.

Tellurides bearing benzensulfonamide as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors with potent antitumor activity. Bioorg Med Chem Lett 2021; 45:128147. [PMID: 34052322 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2021.128147] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2021] [Revised: 05/16/2021] [Accepted: 05/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
We evaluated in vitro a series of telluride containing compounds bearing the benzenesulfonamide group, as effective inhibitors of the physiologically relevant human (h) expressed Carbonic Anhydrase (CA; EC 4.2.1.1) enzymes I, II, IV VII and IX. The potent effects of such compounds against the tumor-associated hCA IX being low nanomolar inhibitors (KI 2.2 to 2.9 nM) and with good selectivity over the ubiquitous hCA II, gave the possibility to evaluate their lethal effect in vitro against a breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231). Among the series, both compounds 3a and 3g induced significant toxic effects against tumor cells after 48 h incubation. Under normoxic condition 3a showed high efficacy killing over 94% of tumor cells at 1 µM, and derivative 3g reached the tumor cell viability under the 5% at 10 µM. In hypoxic condition, these two compounds showed less effective although retained excellent cancer cell killer. These unusual features make them interesting lead compounds acting as antitumor agents also in tumor types not dependent from hCA IX overexpression.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy has great potential in the treatment of diseases; however, the photothermal property is a key factor limiting the therapeutic effect of photothermal materials. Most strategies to improve the photothermal performance of photothermal materials focus on increasing their photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) by promoting the non-radiative transition process. However, a strong ability to absorb light is also a significant factor to enhance the photothermal performance of materials because it determines the amount of acquired energy to transform to heat. Therefore, in this work, we utilized molecular engineering to introduce ethynyl into the molecular structure of conjugated molecules to significantly enhance their ability to absorb light and improve their photothermal performance. The M2-NPs made of the conjugated oligomer named M2 with ethynyl exhibited a two-fold greater mass extinction coefficient (30.26 L g-1 cm-1) than that of nanoparticles M1-NPs with a similar structure but no ethynyl (15.34 L g-1 cm-1). Furthermore, M2-NPs could kill 97% of bacteria at a concentration of 7.0 μg mL-1, which is less than that of M1-NPs (13.0 μg mL-1). In addition, M2-NPs could successfully treat the infected wounds in mice with good biosafety. This provides a new idea for effectively improving the photothermal performance of photothermal materials via molecular design and inspires the further development of novel superior photothermal agents.

Abstract
Simultaneous photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) is beneficial for enhanced cancer therapy due to the synergistic effect. Conventional materials developed for synergistic PTT/PDT are generally multicomponent agents that need complicated preparation procedures and be activated by multiple laser sources. The emerging monocomponent diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)-based conjugated small molecular agents enable dual PTT/PDT under a single laser irradiation, but suffer from low singlet oxygen quantum yield, which severely restricts the therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we report acceptor-oriented molecular design of a donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) conjugated small molecule (IID-ThTPA)-based phototheranostic agent, with isoindigo (IID) as selective acceptor and triphenylamine (TPA) as donor. The strong D-A strength and narrow singlet-triplet energy gap endow IID-ThTPA nanoparticles (IID-ThTPA NPs) high mass extinction coefficient (18.2 L g-1 cm-1), competitive photothermal conversion efficiency (35.4%), and a dramatically enhanced singlet oxygen quantum yield (84.0%) comparing with previously reported monocomponent PTT/PDT agents. Such a high PTT/PDT performance of IID-ThTPA NPs achieved superior tumor cooperative eradicating capability in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Various organic nanoagents have been developed for photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. Among them, small molecule-based nanoagents are very attractive due to their advantages of well-defined chemical structures, high purity, good reproducibility, and easy processability. However, only a few small molecule-based nanoagents have been developed for PDT under NIR irradiation. Moreover, the mechanism of PDT under NIR is still elusive. Herein, a semiconducting small molecule (BTA) with donor-acceptor-donor structure and twisted conformation is developed for PDT/PTT under NIR irradiation. A large π-conjugated electron-deficient unit is used as the core to couple with two electron-donating units, ensuring the strong absorption under 808 nm. Moreover, the donor-acceptor structures and twisted conformation can reduce the energy gap between the singlet and triplet states (∆EST ) to afford effective intersystem crossing, beneficial for reactive oxygen species generation. The mechanism is probed by experimental and theoretical evidence. Moreover, the BTA nanoparticles exhibit excellent biocompatibility and PTT/PDT in vitro performance under NIR irradiation. This provides a strategy for designing highly efficient PDT/PTT molecular materials.

Abstract
Major advances in optoelectronic technologies (e. g., solar cells, organic light-emitting diodes, etc…) are prefaced by the discovery of new synthetic methodologies. In this review, the key role of the Fagan-Nugent reaction in enabling our team (and others) to gain access to new building blocks for luminescent materials and conjugated polymers bearing p-block elements will be described. The Fagan-Nugent reaction is extremely powerful as a synthetic tool since the efficient zirconium-element atom exchange involved affords a wide range of unsaturated inorganic heterocycles of controllable composition and function.

Abstract
Surgical resection is the primary and most effective treatment for most patients with solid tumors. However, patients suffer from postoperative recurrence and metastasis. In the past years, emerging nanotechnology has led the way to minimally invasive, precision and intelligent oncological surgery after the rapid development of minimally invasive surgical technology. Advanced nanotechnology in the construction of nanomaterials (NMs) for precision imaging-guided surgery (IGS) as well as surgery-assisted synergistic therapy is summarized, thereby unlocking the advantages of nanotechnology in multimodal IGS-assisted precision synergistic cancer therapy. First, mechanisms and principles of NMs to surgical targets are briefly introduced. Multimodal imaging based on molecular imaging technologies provides a practical method to achieve intraoperative visualization with high resolution and deep tissue penetration. Moreover, multifunctional NMs synergize surgery with adjuvant therapy (e.g., chemotherapy, immunotherapy, phototherapy) to eliminate residual lesions. Finally, key issues in the development of ideal theranostic NMs associated with surgical applications and challenges of clinical transformation are discussed to push forward further development of NMs for multimodal IGS-assisted precision synergistic cancer therapy.
