Abstract
Lowing blood lipid levels with probiotics has good application prospects. This study aimed to isolate probiotics with hypolipidemic efficacy from homemade na dish and investigate their mechanism of action. In vitro experiments were conducted to determine the cholesterol-lowering ability of five isolates, with results showing that Lactiplantibacillus plantarum N4 exhibited a high cholesterol-lowering rate of 50.27% and significant resistance to acid (87%), bile salt (51.97%), and pepsin (88.28%) in simulated gastrointestinal fluids, indicating promising application prospects for the use of probiotics in lowering blood lipids. The findings from the in vivo experiment demonstrated that the administration of N4 effectively attenuated lipid droplet accumulation and inflammatory cell infiltration in the body weight and liver of hyperlipidemic rats, leading to restoration of liver tissue morphology and structure, as well as improvement in lipid and liver biochemical parameters. 16S analysis indicated that the oral administration of N4 led to significant alterations in the relative abundance of various genera, including Sutterella, Bacteroides, Clostridium, and Ruminococcus, in the gut microbiota of hyperlipidemia rats. Additionally, fecal metabolomic analysis identified a total of 78 metabolites following N4 intervention, with carboxylic acids and their derivatives being the predominant compounds detected. The transcriptomic analysis revealed 156 genes with differential expression following N4 intervention, leading to the identification of 171 metabolic pathways through Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis. Notably, the glutathione metabolism pathway, PPAR signaling pathway, and bile secretion pathway emerged as the primary enrichment pathways. The findings from a comprehensive multi-omics analysis indicate that N4 influences lipid metabolism and diminishes lipid levels in hyperlipidemic rats through modulation of fumaric acid and γ-aminobutyric acid concentrations, as well as glutathione and other metabolic pathways in the intestinal tract, derived from both the gut microbiota and the host liver. This research offers valuable insights into the therapeutic potential of probiotics for managing lipid metabolism disorders and their utilization in the development of functional foods.

Abstract
Traditional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents (CAs) are a type of "always on" system that accelerates proton relaxation regardless of their enrichment region. This "always on" feature leads to a decrease in signal differences between lesions and normal tissues, hampering their applications in accurate and early diagnosis. Herein, we report a strategy to fabricate glutathione (GSH)-responsive one-dimensional (1-D) manganese oxide nanoparticles (MONPs) with improved T2 relaxivities and achieve effective T2/T1 switchable MRI imaging of tumors. Compared to traditional contrast agents with high saturation magnetization to enhance T2 relaxivities, 1-D MONPs with weak Ms effectively increase the inhomogeneity of the local magnetic field and exhibit obvious T2 contrast. The inhomogeneity of the local magnetic field of 1-D MONPs is highly dependent on their number of primary particles and surface roughness according to Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert simulations and thus eventually determines their T2 relaxivities. Furthermore, the GSH responsiveness ensures 1-D MONPs with sensitive switching from the T2 to T1 mode in vitro and subcutaneous tumors to clearly delineate the boundary of glioma and metastasis margins, achieving precise histopathological-level MRI. This study provides a strategy to improve T2 relaxivity of magnetic nanoparticles and construct switchable MRI CAs, offering high tumor-to-normal tissue contrast signal for early and accurate diagnosis.

Abstract
Using molecular imaging techniques to monitor biomarkers and drug release profiles simultaneously is highly advantageous for cancer diagnosis and treatment. However, achieving the accurate quantification of both biomarkers and drug release with a single imaging modality is challenging. This study presents the development of a glutathione (GSH)-responsive polymer-based micelle, PEG-SS-FCy7/PEG-SS-GEM (PSFG), which can precisely localize the tumor using bimodal imaging and prevent drug leakage. These PSFG micelles exhibit a small particle size of 106.3 ± 12.7 nm with a uniform size distribution, and the drug loading efficiency can also be easily controlled by changing the PEG-SS-FCy7 (PSF) and PEG-SS-GEM (PSG) feeding ratio. The PSFG micelles display weak fluorescence emission and minimal drug release under physiological conditions but collapse in the presence of GSH to trigger near-infrared fluorescence and the 19F magnetic resonance imaging signal, allowing for real-time monitoring of intracellular GSH levels and drug release. GSH could synergistically promote the disassembly of the micellar structure, resulting in accelerated probe and drug release of up to about 93.1% after 24 h. These prodrug micelles exhibit high in vitro and in vivo antitumor abilities with minimal side effects. The GSH-responsive drug delivery system with dual-modal imaging capability provides a promising imaging-guided chemotherapeutic platform to probe the tumor microenvironment and quantify real-time drug release profiles with minimal side effects.

Molecular subtypes of disulfidptosis-regulated genes and prognosis models for predicting prognosis, tumor microenvironment infiltration, and therapeutic response in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Disulfidptosis, a recently identified mode of cellular demise marked by excess SLC7A11-reliant cystine, has been proved to affect the development and resilience of tumor cells through the production of glutathione from cystine. Glutathione synthesis plays a crucial role in chemotherapy resistance and the survival of liver cancer cells. Thus, understanding the relationship between disulfidptosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is imperative. A molecular typing approach was employed to classify patients with HCC into two distinct subtypes, namely disulfidptosis and disulfide-homeostasis, based on the expression of genes associated with disulfidptosis. Patients with disulfidptosis exhibited a longer survival time, improved immune status, and heightened sensitivity to conventional chemotherapeutic drugs and immunotherapy. Patients with disulfide-homeostasis demonstrated an immunosuppressive microenvironment, drug resistance, and unfavorable prognosis. A prognostic model was constructed utilizing the significant prognostic variables of the disulfidptosis-regulated genes. A real-world cohort was subjected to multiplex immunofluorescence to validate the clinical outcomes and immune context. Ultimately, our study delved into the prognostic relevance of disulfidptosis in HCC and provides insights into potential avenues for future research.

Abstract
Metal nanoclusters (NCs) are well-recognized novel nano-agents that hold great promise for applications in nanomedicine because of their ultrafine size, low toxicity, and high renal clearance. As foreign substances, however, an in-depth understanding of the bioresponses to metal NCs is necessary but is still far from being realized. Herein, this review is deployed to summarize the biofates of metal NCs at various biological levels, emphasizing their multiscale bioresponses at the molecular, cellular, and organismal levels. In the parts-to-whole schema, the interactions between biomolecules and metal NCs are discussed, presenting typical protein-dictated nano-bio interfaces, hierarchical structures, and in vivo trajectories. Then, the accumulation, internalization, and metabolic evolution of metal NCs in the cellular environment and as-imparted theranostic functionalization are demonstrated. The organismal metabolism and transportation processes of the metal NCs are subsequently distilled. Finally, this review ends with the conclusions and perspectives on the outstanding issues of metal NC-mediated bioresponses in the near future. This review is expected to provide inspiration for tailoring the customization of metal NC-based nano-agents to meet practical requirements in different sectors of nanomedicine.

Abstract
The abnormality in the glycosylation of surface proteins is critical for the growth and metastasis of tumors and their capacity for immunosuppression and drug resistance. This anomaly offers an entry point for real-time analysis on glycosylation fluctuations. In this study, we report a strategy, glycan metabolic fluorine labeling (MEFLA), for selectively tagging glycans of tumor cells. As a proof of concept, we synthesized two fluorinated unnatural monosaccharides with distinctive 19 F chemical shifts (Ac4 ManNTfe and Ac4 GalNTfa). These two probes could undergo selective uptake by tumor cells and subsequent incorporation into surface glycans. This approach enables efficient and specific 19 F labeling of tumor cells, which permits in vivo tracking of tumor cells and in situ assessment of glycosylation changes by 19 F MRI. The efficiency and specificity of our probes for labeling tumor cells were verified in vitro with A549 cells. The feasibility of our method was further validated with in vivo experiments on A549 tumor-bearing mice. Moreover, the capacity of our approach for assessing glycosylation changes of tumor cells was illustrated both in vitro and in vivo. Our studies provide a promising means for visualizing tumor cells in vivo and assessing their glycosylation variations in situ through targeted multiplexed 19 F MRI.

Abstract
Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems have found extensive use in delivering oncology therapeutics; however, some delivery vehicles still exhibit rapid immune clearance, lack of biocompatibility and insufficient targeting. In recent years, bionanoparticles constructed from tumour cell membranes have gained momentum as tumour-targeting therapeutic agents. Cancer cell membrane-coated nanoparticles (CCMCNPs) typically consist of a drug-loaded nanoparticle core coated with cancer cell membrane. CCMCNPs retain homologous tumour cell surface antigens, receptors and proteins, and it has been shown that the modified nanoparticles exhibit better homologous targeting, immune escape and biocompatibility. CCMCNPs are now widely used in a variety of cancer treatments, including photothermal, photodynamic and sonodynamic therapies, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, chemodynamical therapy or other combination therapies. This article presents different therapeutic approaches using multimodal antitumour therapy-combination of two or more therapies that treat tumours synergistically-based on tumour cell membrane systems. The advantages of CCMCNPs in different cancer treatments in recent years are summarised, thus, providing new strategies for cancer treatment research.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury accompanied by oxidative stress is responsible for postoperative liver dysfunction and failure of liver surgery. However, the dynamic non-invasive mapping of redox homeostasis in deep-seated liver during hepatic I/R injury remains a great challenge. Herein, inspired by the intrinsic reversibility of disulfide bond in proteins, a kind of reversible redox-responsive magnetic nanoparticles (RRMNs) is designed for reversible imaging of both oxidant and antioxidant levels (ONOO-/GSH), based on sulfhydryl coupling/cleaving reaction. We develop a facile strategy to prepare such reversible MRI nanoprobe via one-step surface modification. Owing to the significant change in size during the reversible response, the imaging sensitivity of RRMNs is greatly improved, which enables RRMNs to monitor the tiny change of oxidative stress in liver injury. Notably, such reversible MRI nanoprobe can non-invasively visualize the deep-seated liver tissue slice by slice in living mice. Moreover, this MRI nanoprobe can not only report molecular information about the degree of liver injury but also provide anatomical information about where the pathology occurred. The reversible MRI probe is promising for accurately and facilely monitoring I/R process, accessing injury degree and developing powerful strategy for precise treatment.

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.

Abstract
Fluorine-19 magnetic resonance imaging (19F MRI) is gaining widespread interest from the fields of biomolecule detection, cell tracking, and diagnosis, benefiting from its negligible background, deep tissue penetration, and multispectral capacity. However, a wide range of 19F MRI probes are in great demand for the development of multispectral 19F MRI due to the limited number of high-performance 19F MRI probes. Herein, we report a type of water-soluble molecular 19F MRI nanoprobe by conjugating fluorine-containing moieties with a polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) cluster for multispectral color-coded 19F MRI. These chemically precise fluorinated molecular clusters are of excellent aqueous solubility with relatively high 19F contents and of single 19F resonance frequency with suitable longitudinal and transverse relaxation times for high-performance 19F MRI. We construct three POSS-based molecular nanoprobes with distinct 19F chemical shifts at -71.91, -123.23, and -60.18 ppm and achieve interference-free multispectral color-coded 19F MRI of labeled cells in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, in vivo 19F MRI reveals that these molecular nanoprobes could selectively accumulate in tumors and undergo rapid renal clearance afterward, illustrating their favorable in vivo behavior for biomedical applications. This study provides an efficient strategy to expand the 19F probe libraries for multispectral 19F MRI in biomedical research.

Abstract
Engineered magnetic nanoparticles combining diagnosis and therapy functions into one entity hold great potential to rejuvenate cancer treatment; however, they are still constrained by the "always on" signals and unsatisfactory therapeutic effect. Here, we report an intelligent theranostic probe based on Mn3O4 tetragonal bipyramids (MnTBs), which simultaneously respond to H+ and glutathione (GSH) with high sensitivity and quickly decompose to release Mn2+ in mild acidic and reductive intracellular environments. Mn2+ binds to the surrounding proteins to achieve a remarkable relaxivity amplification and selectively brighten the tumors. Particularly, this MR signal improvement is also effective in the detection of millimeter-sized liver metastases, with an ultrahigh contrast of 316%. Moreover, Mn2+ would trigger chemodynamic therapy (CDT) by exerting the Fenton-like activity to generate ˙OH from H2O2. Subsequently, a significant tumor suppression effect can be achieved by the GSH depletion-enhanced CDT. Besides, MnTBs manifest efficient urinary and hepatic excretions with biodegradability and minimal systemic toxicity. A pH/GSH dual responsive nanoprobe that integrates tumor diagnostic and therapeutic activities was developed to provide a new paradigm for precise diagnosis and treatment of tumors and metastases.

Abstract
As one of the most significant imaging modalities currently available, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been extensively utilized for clinically accurate cancer diagnosis. However, low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and low specificity for tumors continue to pose significant challenges. Inspired by the distance-dependent magnetic resonance tuning (MRET) phenomenon, the tumor microenvironment (TME)-activated off-on T1-T2 dual-mode MRI nanoswitch is presented in the current study to realize the sensitive early diagnosis of tumors. The tumor-specific nanoswitch is designed and manufactured on the basis of PDGFB-conjugating ferroferric oxide coated by Mn-doped silica (PDGFB-FMS), which can be degraded under the high-concentration GSH and low pH in TME to activate the T1-T2 dual-mode MRI signals. The tumor-specific off-on dual-mode MRI nanoswitch can significantly improve the SNR and is used successfully for the accurate diagnosis of early-stage tumors, particularly for orthotopic prostate cancer. In addition, the systemic delivery of the nanoswitch did not cause blood or tissue damage, and it can be excreted out of the body in a timely manner, demonstrating excellent biosafety. Overall, the strategy is a significant step in the direction of designing off-on dual-mode MRI nanoprobes to improve imaging accuracy, which opens up new avenues for the development of new MRI probes.

Abstract
The unsatisfactory performance of current gadolinium chelate based T1 contrast agents (CAs) for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) stimulates the search for better alternatives. Herein, we report a new strategy to substantially improve the capacity of nanoparticle-based T1 CAs by exploiting the photoinduced superhydrophilic assistance (PISA) effect. As a proof of concept, we synthesized citrate-coated Gd-doped TiO2 ellipsoidal nanoparticles (GdTi-SC NPs), whose r1 increases significantly upon UV irradiation. The reduced water contact angle and the increased number of surface hydroxyl groups substantiate the existence of the PISA effect, which considerably promotes the efficiency of paramagnetic relaxation enhancement (PRE) and thus the imaging performance of GdTi-SC NPs. In vivo MRI of SD rats with GdTi-SC NPs further demonstrates that GdTi-SC NPs could serve as a high-performance CA for sensitive imaging of blood vessels and accurate diagnosis of vascular lesions, indicating the success of our strategy.
