Abstract
The use of nanoparticles has increased significantly over the past few years in a number of fields, including diagnostics, biomedicine, environmental remediation, and water treatment, generating public interest. Among various types of nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have emerged as an essential tool for biomedical applications due to their distinct physicochemical properties compared to other nanoparticles. This review article focuses on the recent growth of MNPs and comprehensively reviews the advantages, multifunctional approaches, biomedical applications, and latest research on MNPs employed in various biomedical techniques. Biomedical applications of MNPs hold on to their ability to rapidly switch magnetic states under an external field at room temperature. Ideally, these MNPs should be highly susceptible to magnetization when the field is applied and then lose that magnetization just as quickly once the field is removed. This unique property allows MNPs to generate heat when exposed to high-frequency magnetic fields, making them valuable tools in developing treatments for hyperthermia and other heat-related illnesses. This review underscores the role of MNPs as tools that hold immense promise in transforming various aspects of healthcare, from diagnostics and imaging to therapeutic treatments, with discussion on a wide range of peer-reviewed articles published on the subject. At the conclusion of this work, challenges and potential future advances of MNPs in the biomedical field are highlighted.

Abstract
Introduction Targeting, imaging, and treating tumors represent major clinical challenges. Developing effective theranostic agents to address these issues is an urgent need. Methods We introduce an "all-in-one" tumor-targeted theranostic platform using CuFeSe2-based composite nanoparticles (CuFeSe2@PA) for magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) dual model imaging-guided hyperthermia tumor ablation. Plerixafor (AMD3100) is bonded to the surface of CuFeSe2 as a targeting unit. Due to the robust interaction between AMD3100 and the overexpressed Chemokine CXC type receptor 4 (CXCR4) on the membrane of 4T1 cancer cells, CuFeSe2@PA specifically recognizes 4T1 cancer cells, enriching the tumor region. Results CuFeSe2@PA serves as a contrast agent for T2-weighted MR imaging (relaxivity value of 1.61 mM-1 s-1) and CT imaging. Moreover, it effectively suppresses tumor growth through photothermal therapy (PTT) owing to its high photothermal conversion capability and stability, with minimized side effects demonstrated both in vitro and in vivo. Discussion CuFeSe2@PA nanoparticles show potential as dual-mode imaging contrast agents for MR and CT and provide an effective means of tumor treatment through photothermal therapy. The surface modification with Plerixafor enhances the targeting ability of the nanoparticles, performing more significant efficacy and biocompatibility in the 4T1 cancer cell model. The study demonstrates that CuFeSe2@PA is a promising multifunctional theranostic platform with clinical application potential.

Abstract
The urgent need to curb the rampant rise in cancer has impelled the rapid development of nanomedicine. Under the above issue, transition metal compounds have received special attention considering their physicochemical and biochemical properties. However, how to take full advantage of the valuable characteristics of nanomaterials based on their spatial structures and chemical components for synergistic tumor therapy is a worthwhile exploration. In this work, a tailored two-dimensional (2D) FeSe2 nanosheet (NS) platform is proposed, which integrates enzyme activity and drug efficacy through the regulation of itsstability. Specifically, metastable FeSe2 NSs can serve as dual nanozymes in an intact state, depleting GSH and increasing ROS to induce oxidative stress in the tumor microenvironment (TME). With the gradual degradation of the FeSe2 in TME, its degraded products can amplify the Fenton reaction and GSH consumption, enhance the expression of inflammatory factors, and achieve effective near-infrared (NIR)-light irradiation-enhanced synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Our exploration further confirmed such a strategy that may integrate carrier activity and drug action into a metastable nanoplatform for tumor synergistic therapy. These results prompt the consideration of the rational design of a one-for-all carrier that can exhibit multifunctional properties and nanomedicine efficacy for versatile therapeutic applications in the future.

Abstract
As bacterial keratitis progresses rapidly, prompt intervention is necessary. Current diagnostic processes are time-consuming and invasive, leading to improper antibiotics for treatment. Therefore, innovative strategies for diagnosing and treating bacterial keratitis are urgently needed. In this study, Cu2-xSe@BSA@NTRP nanoparticles were developed by loading nitroreductase-responsive probes (NTRPs) onto Cu2-xSe@BSA. These nanoparticles exhibited integrated fluorescence imaging and antibacterial capabilities. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that the nanoparticles produced responsive fluorescence signals in bacteria within 30 min due to an interaction between the released NTRP and bacterial endogenous nitroreductase (NTR). When combined with low-temperature photothermal therapy (PTT), the nanoparticles effectively eliminated E. coli and S. aureus, achieved antibacterial efficacy above 95% and facilitated the re-epithelialization process at the corneal wound site in vivo. Overall, the Cu2-xSe@BSA@NTRP nanoparticles demonstrated potential for rapid, noninvasive in situ diagnosis, treatment, and visualization assessment of therapy effectiveness in bacterial keratitis.

Abstract
In recent years, inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted increasing attention as potential theranostic agents in the field of oncology. Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a minimally invasive technique that uses nanoparticles to produce heat from light to kill cancer cells. PTT requires two essential elements: a photothermal agent (PTA) and near-infrared (NIR) radiation. The role of PTAs is to absorb NIR, which subsequently triggers hyperthermia within cancer cells. By raising the temperature in the tumor microenvironment (TME), PTT causes damage to the cancer cells. Nanoparticles (NPs) are instrumental in PTT given that they facilitate the passive and active targeting of the PTA to the TME, making them crucial for the effectiveness of the treatment. In addition, specific targeting can be achieved through their enhanced permeation and retention effect. Thus, owing to their significant advantages, such as altering the morphology and surface characteristics of nanocarriers comprised of PTA, NPs have been exploited to facilitate tumor regression significantly. This review highlights the properties of PTAs, the mechanism of PTT, and the results obtained from the improved curative efficacy of PTT by utilizing NPs platforms.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs) have been applied for cancer therapy and achieved great success in the field of cancer immunotherapy. Nevertheless, the broad application of ICBs is limited by the low response rate. To address this issue, increasing studies have found that the induction of immunogenic cell death (ICD) in tumor cells is becoming an emerging therapeutic strategy in cancer treatment, not only straightly killing tumor cells but also enhancing dying cells immunogenicity and activating antitumor immunity. ICD is a generic term representing different cell death modes containing ferroptosis, pyroptosis, autophagy and apoptosis. Traditional chemotherapeutic agents usually inhibit tumor growth based on the apoptotic ICD, but most tumor cells are resistant to the apoptosis. Thus, the induction of non-apoptotic ICD is considered to be a more efficient approach for cancer therapy. In addition, due to the ineffective localization of ICD inducers, various types of nanomaterials have been being developed to achieve targeted delivery of therapeutic agents and improved immunotherapeutic efficiency. In this review, we briefly outline molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis, pyroptosis and autophagy, as well as their reciprocal interactions with antitumor immunity, and then summarize the current progress of ICD-induced nanoparticles based on different strategies and illustrate their applications in the cancer therapy.

Abstract
Background Development of versatile nanoplatform still remains a great challenge due to multistep synthesis and complicated compositions. Therefore, it is significant to develop a facile method to synthesize a nanocomposite to achieve multimodal imaging and even imaging-guided cancer therapeutics. Methods and Results In our study, hyaluronic acid-functionalized iron (II) tungstate nanoparticles (HA-FeWO4 NPs) were successfully synthesized as a versatile nanoplatform by a facile one-pot hydrothermal procedure. The formed multifunctional HA-FeWO4 NPs were investigated via a series of characterization techniques, which demonstrated good biocompatibility, excellent dispersion, low cytotoxicity, active tumor-targeting ability and high photothermal efficiency. Furthermore, tumor was clearly visualized by HA-FeWO4 NPs with multimodal imaging of infrared thermal imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography imaging in 4T1 tumor bearing mice. More importantly, HA-FeWO4 could achieve multimodal imaging-guided photothermal therapy of 4T1 tumors. Conclusion The constructed HA-FeWO4 NPs have great potential as ideal nanotheranostic agents for multimodal imaging and even imaging-guided cancer theranostics in biological systems.

Abstract
Thermoelectric therapy has emerged as a promising treatment strategy for oncology, but it is still limited by the low thermoelectric catalytic efficiency at human body temperature and the inevitable tumor thermotolerance. We present a photothermoelectric therapy (PTET) strategy based on triphenylphosphine-functionalized Cu3VS4 nanoparticles (CVS NPs) with high copper ionic mobility at room temperature. Under near-infrared laser irradiation, CVS NPs not only generate hyperthermia to ablate tumor cells but also catalytically yield superoxide radicals and induce endogenous NADH oxidation through the Seebeck effect. Notably, CVS NPs can accumulate inside mitochondria and deplete NADH, reducing ATP synthesis by competitively inhibiting the function of complex I, thereby down-regulating the expression of heat shock proteins to relieve tumor thermotolerance. Both in vitro and in vivo results show notable tumor suppression efficacy, indicating that the concept of integrating PTET and mitochondrial metabolism modulation is highly feasible and offers a translational promise for realizing precise and efficient cancer treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mycotoxin contaminated food poses a threat to human health. On-site detection of mycotoxin contamination is of significance to reduce the agricultural and food industries loss. Lateral flow immunochromatography (LFIC) as on-site detection method for mycotoxins has the advantages of low cost, easy to operate and short time-consuming. Of the various types of LFIC, photothermal LFIC possesses better sensitivity and stronger quantitative capability, but is unable to conduct synchronous multi-target analysis because that the laser can only activate one test area at a time. It was clear that a synchronous multi-target photothermal LFIC method was needed. RESULTS In this study, a photothermal LFIC method for the simultaneous detection of three mycotoxins, deoxynivalenol (DON), aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and zearalenone (ZEN), was developed. We broadened the laser source with a beam expander and realized the irradiation and activation of three test zones simultaneously. In addition, the competitive photothermal LFIC was constructed by using Cu2-xSe-Au nanocomposites with excellent photothermal properties (η = 87.47%) as photothermal signal probes and thermal imager as photothermal signal collector. Under optimized experimental conditions, the limits of detection (LOD) were 73 ng L-1, 45 ng L-1 and 43 ng L-1 for DON, AFB1 and ZEN, respectively. The method had good linearity in three orders of magnitude and good specificity. The recoveries of the three mycotoxins in oat, cornmeal and millet samples ranged from 78.6% to 112.4%. SIGNIFICANCE Compared with previous studies, this method improved the sensitivity, broadened the linear range of detection without large equipment and realized synchronous multi-target analysis for DON, AFB1 and ZEN. We addressed a key limitation of photothermal LFIC by a simple way, facilitating the application of this technique in multi-target on-site detection in wider fields.

Abstract
Bioimaging is widely used in various fields of modern medicine. Fluorescence imaging has the advantages of high sensitivity, high selectivity, noninvasiveness, in situ imaging, and so on. However, one-photon (OP) fluorescence imaging has problems, such as low tissue penetration depth and low spatiotemporal resolution. These disadvantages can be solved by two-photon (TP) fluorescence imaging. However, TP imaging still uses fluorescence intensity as a signal. The complexity of organisms will inevitably affect the change of fluorescence intensity, cause false-positive signals, and affect the accuracy of the results obtained. Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) is different from other kinds of fluorescence imaging, which is an intrinsic property of the material and independent of the material concentration and fluorescence intensity. FLIM can effectively avoid the fluctuation of TP imaging based on fluorescence intensity and the interference of autofluorescence. Therefore, based on silica-coated gold nanoclusters (AuNCs@SiO2) combined with nucleic acid probes, the dual-mode nanoprobe platform was constructed for TP and FLIM imaging of intracellular endogenous miRNA-21 for the first time. First, the dual-mode nanoprobe used a dual fluorescence quencher of BHQ2 and graphene oxide (GO), which has a high signal-to-noise ratio and anti-interference. Second, the dual-mode nanoprobe can detect miR-21 with high sensitivity and selectivity in vitro, with a detection limit of 0.91 nM. Finally, the dual-mode nanoprobes performed satisfactory TP fluorescence imaging (330.0 μm penetration depth) and FLIM (τave = 50.0 ns) of endogenous miR-21 in living cells and tissues. The dual-mode platforms have promising applications in miRNA-based early detection and therapy and hold much promise for improving clinical efficacy.

Abstract
Due to their non-toxic function in biological systems, Iron oxide NPs (IO-NPs) are very attractive in biomedical applications. The magnetic properties of IO-NPs enable a variety of biomedical applications. We evaluated the usage of IO-NPs for anticancer effects. This paper lists the applications of IO-NPs in general and the clinical targeting of IO-NPs. The application of IONPs along with photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), and magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MHT) is highlighted in this review's explanation for cancer treatment strategies. The review's study shows that IO-NPs play a beneficial role in biological activity because of their biocompatibility, biodegradability, simplicity of production, and hybrid NPs forms with IO-NPs. In this review, we have briefly discussed cancer therapy and hyperthermia and NPs used in PTT, PDT, and MHT. IO-NPs have a particular effect on cancer therapy when combined with PTT, PDT, and MHT were the key topics of the review and were covered in depth. The IO-NPs formulations may be uniquely specialized in cancer treatments with PTT, PDT, and MHT, according to this review investigation.

Abstract
Emerging cancer cases across the globe and treating them with conventional therapies with multiple limitations have been challenging for decades. Novel drug delivery systems and alternative theranostics are required for efficient detection and treatment. Nanocrystals (NCs) have been established as a significant cancer diagnosis and therapeutic tool due to their ability to deliver poorly water-soluble drugs with sustained release, low toxicity, and flexibility in the route of administration, long-term sustainable drug release, and noncomplicated excretion. This review summarizes several therapies of NCs, including anticancer, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, biotheranostics, targeted therapy, photothermal, and photodynamic. Further, different imaging and diagnostics using NCs are mentioned, including imaging, diagnosis through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), biosensing, and luminescence. In addition, the limitations and potential solutions of NCs in the field of cancer theranostics are discussed. Preclinical and clinical data depicting the importance of NCs in the spotlight of cancer, its current status, future aspects, and challenges are covered in detail.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) and metastasis in cancer have become increasingly serious problems since antitumor efficiency is greatly restricted by a single therapeutic modality and the insensitive tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, metal-phenolic network-functionalized nanoparticles (t-P@TFP NPs) are designed to realize multiple therapeutic modalities and reshape the TME from insensitive to sensitive under multimodal imaging monitoring. After a single irradiation, a near-infrared laser-activated multistage reaction occurs. t-P@TFP NPs trigger the phase transition of perfluoropentane (PFP) to release tannic acid (TA)/ferric ion (Fe3+ )-coated paclitaxel (PTX) and cause hyperthermia in the tumor region to efficiently kill cancer cells. Additionally, PTX is released after the disassembly of the TA-Fe3+ film by the abundant adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the malignant tumor, which concurrently inhibits ATP-dependent drug efflux to improve sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents. Furthermore, hyperthermia-induced immunogenic cell death (ICD) transforms "cold" tumors into "hot" tumors with the assistance of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade to evoke antitumor immunogenicity. This work carefully reveals the mechanisms underlying the abilities of these multifunctional NPs, providing new insights into combating the proliferation and metastasis of multidrug-resistant tumors.

Abstract
Phototheranostic based on photothermal therapy (PTT) and photoacoustic imaging (PAI), as one of avant-garde medical techniques, have sparked growing attention because it allows noninvasive, deeply penetrative, and highly selective and effective therapy. Among a variety of phototheranostic nanoagents, single-component inorganic nanostructures are found to be novel and attractive PAI and PTT combined nanotheranostic agents and received tremendous attention, which not only exhibit structural controllability, high tunability in physiochemical properties, size-dependent optical properties, high reproducibility, simple composition, easy functionalization, and simple synthesis process, but also can be endowed with multiple therapeutic and imaging functions, realizing the superior therapy result along with bringing less foreign materials into body, reducing systemic side effects and improving the bioavailability. In this review, according to their synthetic components, conventional single-component inorganic nanostructures are divided into metallic nanostructures, metal dichalcogenides, metal oxides, carbon based nanostructures, upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), metal organic frameworks (MOFs), MXenes, graphdiyne and other nanostructures. On the basis of this category, their detailed applications in PAI guide PTT of tumor treatment are systematically reviewed, including synthesis strategies, corresponding performances, and cancer diagnosis and therapeutic efficacy. Before these, the factors to influence on photothermal effect and the principle of in vivo PAI are briefly presented. Finally, we also comprehensively and thoroughly discussed the limitation, potential barriers, future perspectives for research and clinical translation of this single-component inorganic nanoagent in biomedical therapeutics.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) represents the most common and fatal form of primary invasive brain tumors as it affects a great number of patients each year and has a median overall survival of approximately 14.6 months after diagnosis. Despite intensive treatment, almost all patients with GBM experience recurrence, and their 5-year survival rate is approximately 5%. At present, the main clinical treatment strategy includes surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. However, tumor heterogeneity, blood-brain barrier, glioma stem cells, and DNA damage repair mechanisms hinder efficient GBM treatment. The emergence of nanometer-scale diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in cancer medicine due to the establishment of nanotechnology provides novel and promising tools that will allow us to overcome these difficulties. This review summarizes the application and recent progress in nanotechnology-based monotherapies (e.g., chemotherapy) and combination cancer treatment strategies (chemotherapy-based combined cancer therapy) for GBM and describes the synergistic enhancement between these combination therapies as well as the current standard therapy for brain cancer and its deficiencies. These combination therapies that can reduce individual drug-related toxicities and significantly enhance therapeutic efficiency have recently undergone rapid development. The mechanisms underlying these different nanotechnology-based therapies as well as the application of nanotechnology in GBM (e.g., in photodynamic therapy and chemodynamic therapy) have been systematically summarized here in an attempt to review recent developments and to identify promising directions for future research. This review provides novel and clinically significant insights and directions for the treatment of GBM, which is of great clinical importance. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease Diagnostic Tools > In Vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging.

Abstract
Ti3C2-MXene-based composites provide multifunctional interfaces in diagnosis and treatment of tumors. Herein, we proposed a multifunctional nanoplatform based on Ti3C2-MXene-Au nanocomposites, which combines photothermal properties and peroxidase-like activity, accomplishing synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT) and enzyme dynamic therapy (EDT) accompanied by photoacoustic (PA) and thermal dual-mode imaging in vivo. Furthermore, PTT induces immunogenic cell death, and EDT promotes cell apoptosis, facilitating dendritic cell (DC) maturation and T cell infiltration into the tumor. On this basis, the antibody OX40 (αOX40) was utilized to further contribute immune therapy for reversing the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by activating CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. In summary, a triune of PTT/EDT/antitumor immune therapy is achieved by combining Ti3C2-MXene-Au nanocomposites and αOX40, which possesses several strong features of good biocompatibility, NIR-controlled targeting, significant cancer cell killing, and satisfactory biosafety in vitro and in vivo. Our work might highlight the promising application of MXene-based nanoplatforms for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for the predominant form of liver malignancy and presents a leading cause of cancer-related death globally. Sorafenib (SOR), a first-line targeted drug for advanced HCC treatment, has a battery of untoward side effects. Photothermal therapy (PTT) has been utilized as an effective adjuvant in synergy with other approaches. However, little is known about the tumoricidal efficacy of combining SOR with PTT for HCC. Herein, a novel versatile nanoparticle, Cu2-xSe@SOR@PEG (CSP), that is based on a photothermal Cu2-xSe core and SOR for simultaneously reinforcing PTT and reducing the adverse effects of SOR was constructed. The synthesized CSP exhibited a remarkably enhanced therapeutic effect upon 808 nm laser irradiation via dampening HCC cell propagation and metastasis and propelling cell apoptosis. The intravenous administration of CSP substantially suppressed tumor growth in a xenograft tumor mouse model. It was noted that the CSP manifested low toxicity and excellent biocompatibility. Together, this work indicates a promising and versatile tool that is based on synergistic PTT and molecular-targeted therapy for HCC management.

Abstract
The multi-faceted nature of functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (fMNPs) is well-suited for cancer therapy. These nanocomposites can also provide a multimodal platform for targeted cancer therapy due to their unique magnetic guidance characteristics. When induced by an alternating magnetic field (AMF), fMNPs can convert the magnetostatic energy to heat for magnetic hyperthermia (MHT), as well as for controlled drug release. Furthermore, with the ability to convert near-infrared (NIR) light energy to heat energy, fMNPs have attracted interest for photothermal therapy (PTT). Other than MHT and PTT, fMNPs also have a place in combination cancer therapies, such as chemo-MHT, chemo-PTT, and chemo-PTT-photodynamic therapy, among others, due to their versatile properties. Thus, this review presents multifunctional nanocomposites based on fMNPs for cancer therapies, induced by an AMF or NIR light. We will first discuss the different fMNPs induced with an AMF for cancer MHT and chemo-MHT. Secondly, we will discuss fMNPs irradiated with NIR lasers for cancer PTT and chemo-PTT. Finally, fMNPs used for dual-mode AMF + NIR-laser-induced magneto-photo-hyperthermia (MPHT) will be discussed.

Abstract
The major hurdles of chemodynamic therapy (CDT) are nondegradability and low-efficiency utilization of chemodynamic agents, and intracellular glutathione (GSH)-induced rapid scavenging of hydroxyl radicals (•OH). Here, a biodegradable a-CFT@IP6@BSA agent is reported for efficient cancer therapy by encapsulating amorphous copper iron tellurite nanoparticles (a-CFT NPs) into inositol hexaphosphate (IP6) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). The biggest merits of this agent are the GSH responsive degradation and amorphous structure, allowing the tumor-specific release of plenty of Cu+ ions and their high-efficiency utilization for •OH production via the Fenton-like reaction. Besides, the released Cu+ ions can deplete the intracellular GSH and thereby protect •OH from scavenging, greatly improving the CDT efficiency. Further, it is found that the a-CFT@IP6@BSA NP treatment down-regulates the levels of glutathione peroxidase 4 and BCL-2, indicating GSH depletion-associated ferroptosis and IP6-induced apoptotic death of cancer cells. Utilizing the T1/T2 dual-modal magnetic resonance imaging capability, the a-CFT@IP6@BSA NPs are demonstrated with excellent in vivo anticancer efficiency and have great potential for imaging-guided cancer treatment.

Abstract
The efficacy of phototherapy is dependent on intracellular O2 concentration and NIR harvest. Here, a simple nanoplatform with nanoenzyme mediated phototherapy enhances anticancer capacity. Mn-CoS@carbon (CMS/C) di-shell hollow nanospheres (50 nm) are synthesized successfully through two-step consecutive Kirkendall process. The nanoheterostructure reveals the higher near-infrared (NIR) light absorption and photothermal conversion rate of 66.3% than pure CoS (45.5%), owing to the decreased band gap and multi-reflection of incident light in the hollow structure. And CMS/C reveals the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and nanoenzyme activities (mimic peroxidase and catalase) that are 6 and 2 times than those of pure CoS. Furthermore, the nanoenzyme exhibits NIR-enhanced abilities to produce more OH and O2 facilitating anticancer. In addition, it also depletes glutathione (mimicking glutathione oxidase), to disturb intracellular redox-homeostasis, boosting the increase of oxidative stress. With grafting bovine serum albumin (BSA) and drug loading, CMS/C@BSA-Dox integrated multi-therapy make the great anticancer effect in vitro and vivo. After that, the nanocomposite could be biodegraded and eliminated via urinary and feces within 14 days. Based on this work, the efficient charge-separation can be designed to reveal high performance nanoenzymes as well as photosensitizers for anticancer.

Abstract
Revealing the anatomical structures, functions, and distribution of vasculature via contrast agent (CA) enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is crucial for precise medical diagnosis and therapy. The clinically used MRI CAs strongly rely on Gd-chelates, which exhibit low T1 relaxivities and high risks of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) for patients with renal dysfunction. It is extremely important to develop high-performance and safe CAs for MRI. Herein, it is reported that ultra-small NaGdF4 nanoparticles (UGNs) can serve as an excellent safe MRI CA via surface engineering with rationally designed novel hydrophilic block co-polymer (BPn ). By optimizing the polymer molecular weights, the polymer-functionalized UGNs (i.e., UGNs-BP14 ) are obtained to exhibit remarkably higher relaxivity (11.8 mm-1 s-1 at 3.0 T) than Gd-DTPA (3.6 mm-1 s-1 ) due to their ultracompact and abundant hydrophilic surface coating. The high performance of UGNs-BP14 enables us to sensitively visualize microvasculature with a small diameter of ≈0.17 mm for up to 2 h, which is the thinnest blood vessel and the longest time window for low field (1.0 T) MR angiography ever reported, and cannot be achieved by using the clinically used Gd-DTPA under the same conditions. More importantly, renal clearable UGNs-BP14 show lower risks of inducing NSF in comparison with Gd-DTPA due to their negligible release of Gd3+ ions after modification with the novel hydrophilic block copolymer. The study presents a novel avenue for boosting imaging-performance and systemic biosafety of UGNs as a robust MRI CA with great potential in precise diagnosis of vasculature-related diseases.

Abstract
Metal selenides have been demonstrated as promising Hg0 remediators, while their inadequate adsorption rate primarily impedes their application feasibility. Based on the critical role of coordinatively unsaturated selenide ligands in immobilizing Hg0, this work proposed a novel strategy to enhance the Hg0 adsorption rate of metal selenides by magnitudes by purposefully adjusting the selenide saturation. Copper iron diselenide (CuFeSe2), in which the surface reconstruction tended to occur at ambient temperature, was adopted as the concentrator of unsaturated selenides. The adsorption rate of CuFeSe2 reached as high as 900.71 μg·g-1·min-1, far exceeding those of the previously reported metal selenides by at least 1 magnitude. The excellent resistance of CuFeSe2 to flue gas interference and temperature fluctuation warrants its applicability in real-world conditions. The theoretical investigations and mechanistic interpretations based on density functional theory (DFT) calculation further confirmed the indispensable role of unsaturated selenides in Hg0 adsorption. This work aims not only to develop a Hg0 remediator with extensive applicability in coal combustion flue gas but also to take a step toward the rational design of selenide-based sorbents for diverse environmental remediation by the facile surface functionalization of coordinatively adjustable ligands.

Abstract
Background Radiotherapy (RT) is clinically well-established cancer treatment. However, radioresistance remains a significant issue associated with failure of RT. Phototherapy-induced radiosensitization has recently attracted attention in translational cancer research. Methods Cu-Sb-S nanoparticles (NPs) coated with ultra-small Au nanocrystals (Au@Cu-Sb-S) were synthesized and characterized. The biosafety profiles, absorption of near-infrared (NIR) laser and radiation-enhancing effect of the NPs were evaluated. In vitro and in vivo spectral computed tomography (CT) imaging and photoacoustic (PA) imaging were performed in 4T1 breast cancer-bearing mice. The synergetic radio-phototherapy was assessed by in vivo tumor inhibition studies. Results Au@Cu-Sb-S NPs were prepared by in situ growth of Au NCs on the surface of Cu-Sb-S NPs. The cell viability experiments showed that the combination of Au@Cu-Sb-S+NIR+RT was significantly more cytotoxic to tumor cells than the other treatments at concentrations above 25 ppm Sb. In vitro and in vivo spectral CT imaging demonstrated that the X-ray attenuation ability of Au@Cu-Sb-S NPs was superior to that of the clinically used Iodine, particularly at lower KeV levels. Au@Cu-Sb-S NPs showed a concentration-dependent and remarkable PA signal brightening effect. In vivo tumor inhibition studies showed that the prepared Au@Cu-Sb-S NPs significantly suppressed tumor growth in 4T1 breast cancer-bearing mice treated with NIR laser irradiation and an intermediate X-ray dose (4 Gy). Conclusion These results indicate that Au@Cu-Sb-S integrated with spectral CT, PA imaging, and phototherapy-enhanced radiosensitization is a promising multifunctional theranostic nanoplatform for clinical applications.

Abstract
Nanomaterials show great potential for the treatment of bacterial infections, but their effects remain limited by low antibacterial efficiency and immune clearance. Facet-dependent nanozymes coated with pathogen receptor membranes were fabricated, providing an approach for producing superphotothermal antibacterial nanomaterials with high biocompatibility and low immune clearance. (100)- and (112)-Faceted CuFeSe2 presented excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (46%). However, the peroxidase-like activity of (100)-faceted CuFeSe2 enhanced the decomposition of H2O2 to hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and was markedly greater than that of (112)-faceted CuFeSe2, with nearly 100% of Staphylococcus aureus being killed under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. Importantly, bacteria-pretreated immune membranes (i.e., pathogen receptor membranes) coated with CuFeSe2 exhibited superior S. aureus-binding ability, presented obvious immune-evading capability, and resulted in targeted delivery to infected sites. As a proof-of-principle demonstration, these findings hold promise for the use of pathogen receptor membrane-coated facet-dependent nanomaterials in clinical applications and the treatment of bacterial infections.

Abstract
Background Development of new long-circulating contrast agents for computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of different biological systems still remains a great challenge. Here, we report the synthesis of folic acid (FA)-targeted CuFeSe2 nano-contrast agent for CT and MRI imaging in vitro and in vivo. Methods and Results In our study, CuFeSe2 was fabricated through a facile and green aqueous reaction and then further aminated through silanization. The amine-functionalized CuFeSe2-NH2 nanoparticles enable the covalent conjugation of folate-conjugated polyethylene glycol (FA-PEG-COOH) as a targeting ligand onto their surface, which could improve the dispersion and endue the targetability of nanoparticles, respectively. The formed multifunctional CuFeSe2-PEG-FA nanoparticles were characterized via different techniques, which exhibited outstanding dispersion, good biocompatibility and excellent FA-targeted capability. Meanwhile, the nanoparticles were quite safe in the given concentration range as confirmed by in vitro and in vivo toxicity assay. Importantly, CuFeSe2-PEG-FA nanoparticles were successfully applied in CT/MRI dual-modality imaging in vitro and in vivo, which showed a better imaging performance and targeted capability. Conclusion Therefore, the constructed CuFeSe2-PEG-FA nanoparticles have a great potential as an efficient contrast agent for dual-modality imaging of different biological systems.

Abstract
Ferroptosis therapy (FT) based on the Fenton reaction of ferrous nanoparticles has been becoming a unique strategy for cancer treatment; however, current ferrous nanoparticles suffer from slower Fenton reaction kinetics, lower ferroptosis efficacy, and long-term toxicity, so it is urgent to construct biocompatible ferrous nanomaterials with highly efficient Fenton reaction activity for cancer FT. Inspired by single-atom catalysis and size-determined tumor penetration, we conceived an innovative strategy for constructing ultrasmall zwitterionic polypeptide-coordinated nanohybrids of PCGA@FeNP with about 6 nm by utilizing thiol/hydroxyl-iron cooperative coordination chemistry. The ultrasmall size, unsaturated ferrous coordination, and intracellular acidic pH could accelerate the Fenton reaction, thus boosting the efficacy of ferroptosis. Moreover, those coordinated nanohybrids exhibited prominent photothermia with 59.5% conversion efficiency, further accelerating the Fenton reaction and inducing a synergistic effect between FT and photothermal therapy (PTT). In vitro and in vivo GPX-4 expression ascertained that PCGA@FeNP indeed induced effective FT and synergistic FT-PTT. Remarkably, in vivo FT-PTT completely ablated 4T1 solid tumors by one treatment, presenting outstanding and synergistic antitumor efficacy via the photothermia-boosted ferroptosis and apoptosis pathways. This work supplies a practicable strategy to fabricate ultrasmall zwitterionic coordination nanohybrids for highly efficient cancer FT and FT-PTT theranostics with potential clinical transitions.

Abstract
Precisely engineered magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been widely explored for applications including theragnostic platforms, drug delivery systems, biomaterial/device coatings, tissue engineering scaffolds, performance-enhanced therapeutic alternatives, and even in SARS-CoV-2 detection strips. Such popularity is due to their unique, challenging, and tailorable physicochemical/magnetic properties. Given the wide biomedical-related potential applications of MNPs, significant achievements have been reached and published (exponentially) in the last five years, both in synthesis and application tailoring. Within this review, and in addition to essential works in this field, we have focused on the latest representative reports regarding the biomedical use of MNPs including characteristics related to their oriented synthesis, tailored geometry, and designed multibiofunctionality. Further, actual trends, needs, and limitations of magnetic-based nanostructures for biomedical applications will also be discussed.

[PMID: 34443839 PMCID: PMC8398665 DOI: 10.3390/nano11082008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2021] [Revised: 08/01/2021] [Accepted: 08/03/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Two-dimensional CuFeSe2 nanosheets have been successfully obtained via solution-phase synthesis using a sacrificial template method. The high purity was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and the two-dimensional morphology was validated by transmission electron microscopy. The intense absorption in the 400-1400 nm region has been the basis for the CuFeSe2 nanosheets' photothermal capabilities testing. The colloidal CuFeSe2 (CFS) nanosheets capped with S2- short ligands (CFS-S) exhibit excellent biocompatibility in cell culture studies and strong photothermal effects upon 808 nm laser irradiation. The nanosheets were further loaded with the cancer drug doxorubicin and exposed to laser irradiation, which accelerated the release of doxorubicin, achieving synergy in the therapeutic effect.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a minimally invasive procedure for treating cancer. The two significant prerequisites of PTT are the photothermal therapeutic agent (PTA) and near-infrared radiation (NIR). The PTA absorbs NIR, causing hyperthermia in the malignant cells. This increased temperature at the tumor microenvironment finally results in tumor cell damage. Nanoparticles play a crucial role in PTT, aiding in the passive and active targeting of the PTA to the tumor microenvironment. Through enhanced permeation and retention effect and surface-engineering, specific targeting could be achieved. This novel delivery tool provides the advantages of changing the shape, size, and surface attributes of the carriers containing PTAs, which might facilitate tumor regression significantly. Further, inclusion of surface engineering of nanoparticles is facilitated through ligating ligands specific to overexpressed receptors on the cancer cell surface. Thus, transforming nanoparticles grants the ability to combine different treatment strategies with PTT to enhance cancer treatment. This review emphasizes properties of PTAs, conjugated biomolecules of PTAs, and the combinatorial techniques for a better therapeutic effect of PTT using the nanoparticle platform.

Abstract
Inorganic nanomaterials that have inherently exceptional physicochemical properties (e.g., catalytic, optical, thermal, electrical, or magnetic performance) that can provide desirable functionality (e.g., drug delivery, diagnostics, imaging, or therapy) have considerable potential for application in the field of biomedicine. However, toxicity can be caused by the long-term, non-specific accumulation of these inorganic nanomaterials in healthy tissues, preventing their large-scale clinical utilization. Over the past several decades, the emergence of biodegradable and clearable inorganic nanomaterials has offered the potential to prevent such long-term toxicity. In addition, a comprehensive understanding of the design of such nanomaterials and their metabolic pathways within the body is essential for enabling the expansion of theranostic applications for various diseases and advancing clinical trials. Thus, it is of critical importance to develop biodegradable and clearable inorganic nanomaterials for biomedical applications. This review systematically summarizes the recent progress of biodegradable and clearable inorganic nanomaterials, particularly for application in cancer theranostics and other disease therapies. The future prospects and opportunities in this rapidly growing biomedical field are also discussed. We believe that this timely and comprehensive review will stimulate and guide additional in-depth studies in the area of inorganic nanomedicine, as rapid in vivo clearance and degradation is likely to be a prerequisite for the future clinical translation of inorganic nanomaterials with unique properties and functionality.

Abstract
The development of robust materials for treating diseases through non-invasive photothermal therapy (PTT) has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Among various types of nanomaterials, inorganic nanomaterials with strong absorption in the near-infrared (NIR) window can be employed as high-efficiency photothermal agents to treat cancer and bacterial infections. In addition, inorganic nanomaterials can be easily combined with other drugs or chemical reagents to construct multifunctional nanomaterials to cascade stimulation responses, enhance therapeutic effects, and perform precise medical treatments. In this review, focusing on the latest developments of inorganic nanomaterials in photothermal therapy, we firstly introduced the light-to-heat conversion mechanism of inorganic nanomaterials. Secondly, we summarized the application of common inorganic nanomaterials, such as metallic nanoparticles, transition metal oxide nanoparticles and two dimensional (2D) nanosheets. In addition, the strategy of developing multifunctional nano-platforms with excellent biocompatibility as well as good targeted capability was also expounded. Finally, challenges and new perspectives for designing effective inorganic nanomaterial-based nanosystems for photothermal assisted therapy were also discussed.

Abstract
Residual microtumors following surgical resection are the major cause for lethal cancer recurrence. However, it remains challenging to completely eliminate these residual microtumors. Here, we report an integrated strategy for image-guided surgical resection of tumors and intraoperative surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) guided thermosurgical elimination of residual microtumors using a "three-in-one" theranostic nanoprobe, termed the Au nanostar-based photoacoustic (PA), SERS, and thermosurgical (starPART) probe. This starPART probe, comprising an Au nanostar core, a Raman molecule layer, and a silica outer layer, draws upon the significant advantages of PA imaging, SERS detection, and photothermal tumor ablation. These prominent features enable preoperative PA imaging for surgical resection of tumors and intraoperative SERS-guided thermosurgery for complete elimination of residual microtumors. In vivo experiments confirm complete eradication of microtumors without local recurrence and with a 100% tumor-free survivability. This work therefore offers a robust platform for real-time intraoperative eradication of residual microtumors with significant improvement of surgical outcomes.

Abstract
Malignant tumors have become one of the major causes of human death, but there remains a lack of effective methods for tiny tumor diagnosis, metastasis warning, clinical efficacy prediction, and effective treatment. In this context, localizing tiny tumors via imaging and non-invasively extracting molecular information related to tumor proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and drug resistance from the tumor microenvironment have become the most fundamental tasks faced by cancer researchers. Tumor-associated microenvironmental physiological parameters, such as hypoxia, acidic extracellular pH, protease, reducing conditions, and so forth, have much to do with prognostic indicators for cancer progression, and impact therapeutic administrations. By combining with various novel nanoparticle-based activatable probes, molecular imaging technologies can provide a feasible approach to visualize tumor-associated microenvironment parameters noninvasively and realize accurate treatment of tumors. This review focuses on the recent achievements in the design of “smart” nanomedicine responding to the tumor microenvironment-related features and highlights state-of- the-art technology in tumor imaging diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract
Previous preclinical and clinical studies have shown that using only a single therapy makes it difficult to completely eradicate tumors and restrain cancer metastasis. To overcome this challenge, multi-modal synergistic treatments have attracted considerable attention. Herein, an ultrathin Cu-loaded CoCuFe-selenide (CCFS) was prepared by a facile topotactic transformation from CoCuFe layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets (NSs), followed by surface modification with polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and l-arginine (L-Arg). The resultant CCFS-PVP-L-Arg (CPA) system shows excellent synergetic photothermal and gas therapy (PTT/GT). The CCFS NSs have strong LSPR absorbance characteristic, with enhanced light absorption in the near-infrared (NIR) region. This endows the CPA nanocomposite with an outstanding photothermal conversion efficiency of 72.0% (pH 7.4) and 81.0% (pH 5.4), among the highest reported for 2D chalcogenide nanomaterials. In addition, NO release from CPA is triggered by decomposition of L-Arg in the H2O2-rich and acidic tumor microenvironment, permitting localized NO gas therapy in the tumor site. In vitro experiments revealed 91.8% apoptosis of HepG2 cells, and in vivo studies showed complete tumor elimination upon treatment with the CPA nanocomposite under NIR irradiation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of combined defect-induced high-efficiency PTT with H2O2 and pH targeted GT.

Abstract
Theranostic agents based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photothermal therapy (PTT) play an important role in tumor therapy. However, the available theranostic agents are facing great challenges such as biocompatibility, MRI contrast effect and photothermal conversion efficiency (η). In this work, mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDAPs/Mn) were prepared on MRI and PTT combined theranostic nanoplatforms, of which the high loading manganese ions and specific surface areas enable good MRI contrast and excellent photothermal conversion efficiency, respectively. The MPDAPs/Mn have uniform morphology, good stability and biocompatibility. Meanwhile, in vitro and in vivo studies have confirmed their superior T1-weighted MRI effect and photothermal conversion efficiency. Furthermore, MPDAPs/Mn have excellent antitumor efficacy in HeLa tumor-bearing mice. Therefore, this developed MPDAPs/Mn theranostic nanoplatform could be a promising candidate for MRI-guided photothermal cancer therapy.
