Abstract
Telomere length plays a crucial role in cellular aging and the risk of diseases. Unlike normal cells, cancer cells can extend their own survival by maintaining telomere stability through telomere maintenance mechanism. Therefore, regulating the lengths of telomeres have emerged as a promising approach for anti-cancer treatment. In this study, we introduce a nanoscale octopus-like structure designed to induce physical entangling of telomere, thereby efficiently triggering telomere dysfunction. The nanoscale octopus, composed of eight-armed PEG (8-arm-PEG), are functionalized with cell penetrating peptide (TAT) to facilitate nuclear entry and are covalently bound to N-Methyl Mesoporphyrin IX (NMM) to target G-quadruplexes (G4s) present in telomeres. The multi-armed configuration of the nanoscale octopus enables targeted binding to multiple G4s, physically disrupting and entangling numerous telomeres, thereby triggering telomere dysfunction. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments indicate that the nanoscale octopus significantly inhibits cancer cell proliferation, induces apoptosis through telomere entanglement, and ultimately suppresses tumor growth. This research offers a novel perspective for the development of innovative anti-cancer interventions and provides potential therapeutic options for targeting telomeres.

Abstract
The presence of hierarchical suppressive pathways in the immune system combined with poor delivery efficiencies of adjuvants and antigens to antigen-presenting cells are major challenges in developing advanced vaccines. The present study reports a nanoadjuvant constructed using aluminosilicate nanoparticles (as particle templates), incorporating cytosine-phosphate-guanosine (CpG) oligonucleotides and small-interfering RNA (siRNA) to counteract immune suppression in antigen-presenting cells. Furthermore, the application of a metal-phenolic network (MPN) coating, which can endow the nanoparticles with protective and bioadhesive properties, is assessed with regard to the stability and immune function of the resulting nanoadjuvant in vitro and in vivo. Combining the adjuvanticity of aluminum and CpG with RNA interference and MPN coating results in a nanoadjuvant that exhibits greater accumulation in lymph nodes and elicits improved maturation of dendritic cells in comparison to a formulation without siRNA or MPN, and with no observable organ toxicity. The incorporation of a model antigen, ovalbumin, within the MPN coating demonstrates the capacity of MPNs to load functional biomolecules as well as the ability of the nanoadjuvant to trigger enhanced antigen-specific responses. The present template-assisted fabrication strategy for engineering nanoadjuvants holds promise in the design of delivery systems for disease prevention, as well as therapeutics.

Abstract
Melanin, especially integumentary melanin, interacts in numerous ways with electromagnetic radiation, leading to a set of critical functions, including radiation protection, UV-protection, pigmentary and structural color productions, and thermoregulation. By harnessing these functions, melanin and melanin-like materials can be widely applied to diverse applications with extraordinary performance. Here we provide a unified overview of the melanin family (all melanin and melanin-like materials) and their interactions with the complete electromagnetic radiation spectrum (X-ray, Gamma-ray, UV, visible, near-infrared), which until now has been absent from the literature and is needed to establish a solid fundamental base to facilitate their future investigation and development. We begin by discussing the chemistries and morphologies of both natural and artificial melanin, then the fundamentals of melanin-radiation interactions, and finally the exciting new developments in high-performance melanin-based functional materials that exploit these interactions. This Review provides both a comprehensive overview and a discussion of future perspectives for each subfield of melanin that will help direct the future development of melanin from both fundamental and applied perspectives.

Abstract
(-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a natural phenolic substance found in foods and beverages (especially tea) that exhibits a broad spectrum of biological activities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer properties. Its potential in cardiovascular and brain health has garnered significant attention. However, its clinical application remains limited due to its poor physicochemical stability and low oral bioavailability. Nanotechnology can be used to improve the stability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic profile of EGCG by encapsulating it within nanoparticles. This article reviews the interactions of EGCG with various compounds, the synthesis of EGCG-based nanoparticles, the functional attributes of these nanoparticles, and their prospective applications in drug delivery, diagnosis, and therapy. The potential application of nanoencapsulated EGCG in functional foods and beverages is also emphasized. Top-down and bottom-up approaches can be used to construct EGCG-based nanoparticles. EGCG-based nanoparticles exhibit enhanced stability and bioavailability compared to free EGCG, making them promising candidates for biomedical and food applications. Notably, the non-covalent and covalent interactions of EGCG with other substances significantly contribute to the improved properties of these nanoparticles. EGCG-based nanoparticles appear to have a wide range of applications in different industries, but further research is required to enhance their efficacy and ensure their safety.

Abstract
Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is considered to be the "gold standard" among the stealth polymers employed for drug delivery. Using PEG to modify or engineer particles has thus gained increasing interest because of the ability to prolong blood circulation time and reduce nonspecific biodistribution of particles in vivo, owing to the low fouling and stealth properties of PEG. In addition, endowing PEG-based particles with targeting and drug-loading properties is essential to achieve enhanced drug accumulation at target sites in vivo. In this feature article, we focus on recent work on the synthesis of PEG particles, in which PEG is the main component in the particles. We highlight different synthesis methods used to generate PEG particles, the influence of the physiochemical properties of PEG particles on their stealth and targeting properties, and the application of PEG particles in targeted drug delivery.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is one of the main challenges of wound healing. It imposes financial and healthcare costs. The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has increased concerns about this challenge, and made finding alternative solutions a crucial aim. We created a new, antibacterial, multifunctional hydrogel with synergistic chemodynamic and photothermal features for wound-healing applications. We fabricated a chitosan (CT)-based hydrogel containing tannic acid (TA), Fe, and MnO2 nanosheets (CT-TA-Fe-MnO2) via a simple method and characterized it. The antibacterial features (resulting from the production of reactive oxygen species within bacterial cells) and healing ability (via anti-inflammatory and hemostatic features) of the hydrogel were confirmed in vitro. In vivo results revealed the effectiveness of the CT-TA-Fe-MnO2 hydrogel in decreasing the hemostatic time, improving anti-inflammatory effects, and promoting wound healing during 14 days by enhancing the deposition and maturation of collagen fibers without affecting the vital organs. The fabricated CT-TA-Fe-MnO2 hydrogel could be a promising candidate with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities suitable for wound-healing applications.

Abstract
V(III) instead of commonly used Fe(III) provided a rich tris-catechol-metal coordination at pH 7.4, which is important for slow drug release at physiological pH. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) functionalized with catechol-containing dopamine (D) and cross-linked using tris-catechol-V(III) coordination yielded pH-responsive compact D-BSA NPs (253 nm). However, conversion to bis- and/or mono-catechol-V(III) complexes in an acidic medium resulted in degradation of NPs and rapid release of doxorubicin (DOX). It was shown that D-BSA NPs entered cancerous MCF-7 cells (66%) more efficiently than non-cancerous HEK293T (33%) in 3 h. Also, DOX-loaded NPs reduced cell viability of MCF-7 by 75% and induced apoptosis in a majority of cells after 24 h. Biodegradability and lack of hemolytic activity were shown in vitro, whereas a lack of toxicity was shown in histological sections of zebrafish. Furthermore, 30% of circulating tumor cells in vasculature in 24 h were killed by DOX-loaded NPs shown with the zebrafish CTC xenograft model.

Abstract
Although a wide variety of nanoparticles (NPs) have been engineered for use as disease markers or drug delivery agents, the number of nanomedicines in clinical use has hitherto remained small. A key obstacle in nanomedicine development is the lack of a deep mechanistic understanding of NP interactions in the bio-environment. Here, the focus is on the biomolecular adsorption layer (protein corona), which quickly enshrouds a pristine NP exposed to a biofluid and modifies the way the NP interacts with the bio-environment. After a brief introduction of NPs for nanomedicine, proteins, and their mutual interactions, research aimed at addressing fundamental properties of the protein corona, specifically its mono-/multilayer structure, reversibility and irreversibility, time dependence, as well as its role in NP agglomeration, is critically reviewed. It becomes quite evident that the knowledge of the protein corona is still fragmented, and conflicting results on fundamental issues call for further mechanistic studies. The article concludes with a discussion of future research directions that should be taken to advance the understanding of the protein corona around NPs. This knowledge will provide NP developers with the predictive power to account for these interactions in the design of efficacious nanomedicines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of stimulus-responsive and photothermally controlled-release microcapsule pesticide delivery systems is a promising solution to enhance the effective utilization and minimize the excessive use of pesticides in agriculture. RESULTS In this study, an AVM@CS@TA-Fe microcapsule pesticide delivery system was developed using avermectin as the model drug, chitosan and tannic acid as the wall materials, and tannic acid-Fe complex layer as the photothermal agent. The optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscope were used to characterize the prepared microcapsule. The slow-release, UV-shielding, photothermal performance, and nematicidal activity of the microcapsule were systematically investigated. The results showed that the system exhibited excellent pH-responsive and photothermal-sensitive performances. In addition, the UV-shielding performance of the delivery system was improved. The photothermal conversion efficiency (η) of the system under the irradiation of near-infrared (NIR) light was determined to be 14.18%. Moreover, the nematicidal activities of the system against pine wood nematode and Aphelenchoides besseyi were greatly increased under the irradiation of light-emitting diode (LED) simulated sunlight. CONCLUSION The release of the pesticide-active substances in such a pesticide delivery system could be effectively regulated with the irradiation of NIR light or LED-simulated sunlight. Thus, the developed pesticide delivery system may have broad application prospects in modern agriculture fields. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Blood transfusions are a life-saving procedure since they can preserve the body's oxygen levels in patients suffering from acute trauma, undergoing surgery, receiving chemotherapy or affected by severe blood disorders. Due to the central role of hemoglobin (Hb) in oxygen transport, so-called Hb-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) are currently being developed for situations where donor blood is not available. In this context, an important challenge that needs to be addressed is the oxidation of Hb into methemoglobin (metHb), which is unable to bind and release oxygen. While several research groups have considered the incorporation of antioxidant enzymes to create HBOCs with minimal metHb conversion, the use of biological enzymes has important limitations related to their high cost, potential immunogenicity or low stability in vivo. Thus, nanomaterials with enzyme-like properties (i.e., nanozymes (NZs)) have emerged as a promising alternative. Amongst the different NZs, gold (Au)-based metallic nanoparticles are widely used for biomedical applications due to their biocompatibility and multi-enzyme mimicking abilities. Thus, in this work, we incorporate Au-based NZs into a type of HBOC previously reported by our group (i.e., Hb-loaded metal-organic framework (MOF)-based nanocarriers (NCs)) and investigate their antioxidant properties. Specifically, we prepare MOF-NCs loaded with Au-based NZs and demonstrate their ability to catalytically deplete over multiple rounds of two prominent reactive oxygen species (ROS) that exacerbate Hb's autoxidation (i.e., hydrogen peroxide and the superoxide radical). Importantly, following loading with Hb, we show how these ROS-scavenging properties translate into a decrease in metHb content. All in all, these results highlight the potential of NZs to create novel HBOCs with antioxidant protection which may find applications as a blood substitute in the future.

Abstract
Herein, we report a platform to integrate customizable quantities of catechol units into polymers by reacting caffeic acid carbonic anhydride with polymers having pendant amine groups. Brush poly(ethylene glycol)-caffeamide (PEG-CAF) copolymers based on oligo(ethylene glycol)methyl ether methacrylate (OEGMA500) were obtained with a catechol content of approximately 30, 40, and 50 mol % (vs OEGMA content). Owing to the hydrophobicity of the introduced CAF groups, the catechol copolymers exhibited cloud points in the range of 23-46 °C and were used to fabricate thermoresponsive FeIII metal-phenolic network capsules. Polymers with the highest CAF content (50 mol %) proved most effective for attenuating reactive oxygen species levels in vitro, in co-cultured fibroblasts, and breast cancer cells, even in the presence of an exogenous oxidant source. The reported approach to synthesize customizable catechol materials could be generalized to other amine-functional polymers, with potential biomedical applications such as adhesives or stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems.

Abstract
The safe administration of thrombolytic agents is a challenge for the treatment of acute thrombosis. Lipid-based nanoparticle drug delivery technologies present opportunities to overcome the existing clinical limitations and deliver thrombolytic therapy with enhanced therapeutic outcomes and safety. Herein, lipid cubosomes are examined as nanocarriers for the encapsulation of thrombolytic drugs. The lipid cubosomes are loaded with the thrombolytic drug urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and coated with a low-fouling peptide that is incorporated within a metal-phenolic network (MPN). The peptide-containing MPN (pep-MPN) coating inhibits the direct contact of uPA with the surrounding environment, as assessed by an in vitro plasminogen activation assay and an ex vivo whole blood clot degradation assay. The pep-MPN-coated cubosomes prepared with 22 wt% peptide demonstrate a cell membrane-dependent thrombolytic activity, which is attributed to their fusogenic lipid behavior. Moreover, compared with the uncoated lipid cubosomes, the uPA-loaded pep-MPN-coated cubosomes demonstrate significantly reduced nonspecific cell association (<10% of the uncoated cubosomes) in the whole blood assay, a prolonged circulating half-life, and reduced splenic uPA accumulation in mice. These studies confirm the preserved bioactivity and cell membrane-dependent release of uPA within pep-MPN-coated lipid cubosomes, highlighting their potential as a delivery vehicle for thrombolytic drugs.

Abstract
Due to the abuse of antibiotics and the emergence of multidrug resistant microorganisms, medical devices, and related biomaterials are at high risk of microbial infection during use, placing a heavy burden on patients and healthcare systems. Metal-phenolic networks (MPNs), an emerging organic-inorganic hybrid network system developed gradually in recent years, have exhibited excellent multifunctional properties such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties by making use of the coordination between phenolic ligands and metal ions. Further, MPNs have received widespread attention in antimicrobial infections due to their facile synthesis process, excellent biocompatibility, and excellent antimicrobial properties brought about by polyphenols and metal ions. In this review, different categories of biomaterials based on MPNs (nanoparticles, coatings, capsules, hydrogels) and their fabrication strategies are summarized, and recent research advances in their antimicrobial applications in biomedical fields (e.g., skin repair, bone regeneration, medical devices, etc.) are highlighted.

Abstract
The biomolecular corona that forms on particles upon contact with blood plays a key role in the fate and utility of nanomedicines. Recent studies have shown that precoating nanoparticles with serum proteins can improve the biocompatibility and stealth properties of nanoparticles. However, it is not fully clear how precoating influences biomolecular corona formation and downstream biological responses. Herein, we systematically examine three precoating strategies by coating bovine serum albumin (single protein), fetal bovine serum (FBS, mixed proteins without immunoglobulins), or bovine serum (mixed proteins) on three nanoparticle systems, namely supramolecular template nanoparticles, metal-phenolic network (MPN)-coated template (core-shell) nanoparticles, and MPN nanocapsules (obtained after template removal). The effect of protein precoating on biomolecular corona compositions and particle-immune cell interactions in human blood was characterized. In the absence of a pre-coating, the MPN nanocapsules displayed lower leukocyte association, which correlated to the lower amount (by 2-3 fold) of adsorbed proteins and substantially fewer immunoglobulins (more than 100 times) in the biomolecular corona relative to the template and core-shell nanoparticles. Among the three coating strategies, FBS precoating demonstrated the most significant reduction in leukocyte association (up to 97% of all three nanoparticles). A correlation analysis highlights that immunoglobulins and apolipoproteins may regulate leukocyte recognition. This study demonstrates the impact of different precoating strategies on nanoparticle-immune cell association and the role of immunoglobulins in bio-nano interactions.

Abstract
Metal ions are ubiquitous in nature and play significant roles in assembling functional materials in fields spanning chemistry, biology, and materials science. Metal-phenolic materials are assembled from phenolic components in the presence of metal ions through the formation of metal-organic complexes. Alkali, alkali-earth, transition, and noble metal ions as well as metalloids interacting with phenolic building blocks have been widely exploited to generate diverse hybrid materials. Despite extensive studies on the synthesis of metal-phenolic materials, a comprehensive summary of how metal ions guide the assembly of phenolic compounds is lacking. A fundamental understanding of the roles of metal ions in metal-phenolic materials engineering will facilitate the assembly of materials with specific and functional properties. In this review, we focus on the diversity and function of metal ions in metal-phenolic material engineering and emerging applications. Specifically, we discuss the range of underlying interactions, including (i) cation-π, (ii) coordination, (iii) redox, and (iv) dynamic covalent interactions, and highlight the wide range of material properties resulting from these interactions. Applications (e.g., biological, catalytic, and environmental) and perspectives of metal-phenolic materials are also highlighted.

Abstract
Advanced treatments based on immune system manipulation, gene transcription and regulation, specific organ and cell targeting, and/or photon energy conversion have emerged as promising therapeutic strategies against a range of challenging diseases. Naturally derived macromolecules (e.g., proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, and polyphenols) have increasingly found use as fundamental building blocks for nanostructured particles as their advantageous properties, including biocompatibility, biodegradability, inherent bioactivity, and diverse chemical properties make them suitable for advanced therapeutic applications. This review provides a timely and comprehensive summary of the use of a broad range of natural building blocks in the rapidly developing field of advanced therapeutics with insights specific to nanostructured particles. We focus on an up-to-date overview of the assembly of nanostructured particles using natural building blocks and summarize their key scientific and preclinical milestones for advanced therapies, including adoptive cell therapy, immunotherapy, gene therapy, active targeted drug delivery, photoacoustic therapy and imaging, photothermal therapy, and combinational therapy. A cross-comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of different natural building blocks are highlighted to elucidate the key design principles for such bio-derived nanoparticles toward improving their performance and adoption. Current challenges and future research directions are also discussed, which will accelerate our understanding of designing, engineering, and applying nanostructured particles for advanced therapies.

Abstract
The key role of biomolecule adsorption onto engineered nanomaterials for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes has been well recognized by the nanobiotechnology community, and our mechanistic understanding of nano-bio interactions has greatly advanced over the past decades. Attention has recently shifted to gaining active control of nano-bio interactions, so as to enhance the efficacy of nanomaterials in biomedical applications. In this review, we summarize progress in this field and outline directions for future development. First, we briefly review fundamental knowledge about the intricate interactions between proteins and nanomaterials, as unraveled by a large number of mechanistic studies. Then, we give a systematic overview of the ways that protein-nanomaterial interactions have been exploited in biomedical applications, including the control of protein adsorption for enhancing the targeting efficiency of nanomedicines, the design of specific protein adsorption layers on the surfaces of nanomaterials for use as drug carriers, and the development of novel nanoparticle array-based sensors based on nano-bio interactions. We will focus on particularly relevant and recent examples within these areas. Finally, we conclude this topical review with an outlook on future developments in this fascinating research field.

Abstract
Bismuth-containing therapies are suggested as first-line and rescue alternatives for gastric ulcer (GU) treatment and Helicobacter pylori eradication. The current treatment strategy is called quadruple therapy and includes proton pump inhibitors, bismuth, and two broad-band antibiotics. This fact may affect medication compliance, leading to a resistance rate of more than 25% to clarithromycin or metronidazole. To counter this, from the perspective of natural products, an intragastric-targeting all-in-one theranostic platform is established: a drug carrier microcapsule composed of multiple synergistic antiulcer drugs, including bismuth, gallotannin, and antibiotics is obtained (BiG@MCs), and the therapeutic effects of BiG@MCs in rodent models are further evaluated. The results show that the BiG@MCs are spherical with homogeneous particle size (3 ± 0.5 µm) and can be response-released to the acidic environment of the stomach (pH 2.0-3.0), preventing the premature release of the BiG@MCs in physiological conditions. It is worth noting that the bismuth component can be easily identified by computed tomography and other detection instruments, which provide the possibility for drug tracing. In summary, these results indicate that BiG@MCs provide a versatile intragastric-targeting drug delivery platform for GU therapeutics.

Abstract
The preparation of drugs into nanocrystals represents a practical pharmaceutical technology to solubilize poorly water-soluble drugs and enhance bioavailability. However, commonly used stabilizers in nanocrystals like polymers and surfactants are frequently inefficient and cannot stabilize nanocrystals for an expected time. This study reports an exquisite platform for nanocrystal production based on a metal-phenolic network (MPN). MPN-wrapped nanocrystal particles (MPN-NPs) were fabricated through an anti-solvent precipitation method using tannic acid and FeIII or AlIII as coupling agents and characterized by dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscope, ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometry, fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray powder diffraction. In vitro release, cytotoxicity, and stability were mainly studied with MPN-NPs loading paclitaxel. The suitability of MPN as a nanocrystal stabilizer was also investigated for other classical hydrophobic drugs, including simvastatin, andrographolide, atorvastatin calcium, ferulic acid, and famotidine. The results showed that MPN could effectively wrap and stabilize various drug nanocrystals apart from famotidine. The maximum solubilization of MPN towards atorvastatin calcium was up to 1587 folds, and it also exhibited an excellent solubilizing effect on other hydrophobic drugs. We disclosed that the drug was entrapped in MPN in the nanocrystal form, and there were distinct physiochemical interactions between MPN and the payload. Our findings suggested that MPN may be a promising platform for nanocrystal production to address the challenge of low solubility associated with hydrophobic drugs. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Phage is a promising therapeutic agent for treating antibiotic resistant bacteria. However, in the process of treatment, phage may be cleared by the immune system and cleaved by protease, which could affect the efficacy of phage. In order to solve the above problems, phage encapsulation is usually adopted. In this study, we employed metal phenolic network (MPN) for efficient phage encapsulation which could protect phage from the cleavage of protease, and keep cytotoxicity weak. In the model of skin wound infection, the encapsulated phage could be released in response to pH change to achieve good antibacterial effect. Furthermore, the MPN encapsulation could prolong the T4 phage residence time at the wound. Our findings suggest that MPN can be a promising material for phage encapsulation.

Abstract
Interfacial self-assembly has been a powerful driving force for fabricating functional and therapeutic carriers in emulsion systems. Herein, we reported a straightforward metal-phenolic supramolecular architecture, directly absorbed and cross-linked at the surfaces of oil drops and acted as the regulator between the oil and water interface to stabilize the emulsion systems. The results showed that the diverse interfacial properties and emulsion stability were tuned by the kinds and concentrations of polyphenols as well as the ratios of polyphenols to metal ions. Concretely, the TA-Fe3+ (coordinated by tannin acid and Fe3+)- or EGCG-Fe3+ (coordinated by EGCG and Fe3+)-based solid particles exhibited an increasing amount of interfacial adsorption with an increase in both polyphenol and metal ion concentrations or ratios of Fe3+ to polyphenols, and as a consequence of which, the prepared corresponding emulsions displayed enhanced emulsion stability and diverse interfacial characteristics. The rheological measurement results also exhibited that there was an increasing trend in both G' and G″, with enhanced concentrations or ratios of Fe3+ to polyphenols. Generally, our study not only highlighted a straightforward strategy for the directly interfacial fabrication of emulsions to improve their stability but also advanced the understanding of broadening the application scope of the metal-phenolic networks.

Abstract
Nanomedicine integrates different functional materials to realize the customization of carriers, aiming at increasing the cancer therapeutic efficacy and reducing the off-target toxicity. However, efforts on developing new drug carriers that combine precise diagnosis and accurate treatment have met challenges of uneasy synthesis, poor stability, difficult metabolism, and high cytotoxicity. Metal-phenolic networks (MPNs), making use of the coordination between phenolic ligands and metal ions, have emerged as promising candidates for nanomedicine, most notably through the service as multifunctional theranostic nanoplatforms. MPNs present unique properties, such as rapid preparation, negligible cytotoxicity, and pH responsiveness. Additionally, MPNs can be further modified and functionalized to meet specific application requirements. Here, the classification of polyphenols is first summarized, followed by the introduction of the properties and preparation strategies of MPNs. Then, their recent advances in biomedical sciences including bioimaging and anti-tumor therapies are highlighted. Finally, the main limitations, challenges, and outlooks regarding MPNs are raised and discussed.

Abstract
Polymer nanocapsules, with a hollow structure, are increasingly finding widespread use as drug delivery carriers; however, quantitatively evaluating the bio-nano interactions of nanocapsules remains challenging. Herein, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based metal-phenolic network (MPN) nanocapsules of three sizes (50, 100, and 150 nm) are engineered via supramolecular template-assisted assembly and the effect of the nanocapsule size on bio-nano interactions is investigated using in vitro cell experiments, ex vivo whole blood assays, and in vivo rat models. To track the nanocapsules by mass cytometry, a preformed gold nanoparticle (14 nm) is encapsulated into each PEG-MPN nanocapsule. The results reveal that decreasing the size of the PEG-MPN nanocapsules from 150 to 50 nm leads to reduced association (up to 70%) with phagocytic blood cells in human blood and prolongs in vivo systemic exposure in rat models. The findings provide insights into MPN-based nanocapsules and represent a platform for studying bio-nano interactions.

Abstract
Macrophage accumulation is central to the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic plaques. Reducing macrophages in plaques is an appealing approach to attenuate the development of atherosclerosis. Chemodynamic therapy, specifically inhibiting hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-rich cells in slightly acidic microenvironment, has emerged as a new method in tumor treatment. Herein, we manufactured ultrasmall dopamine-modified hyaluronic acid (HD)-stabilized Fe(III)-tannic acid nanoparticles (HFTNPs). HFTNPs can specifically accumulate in inflammatory macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques, provide brighter magnetic resonance images, promote reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and induce the death of inflammatory macrophages without damaging normal cells and tissues. In conclusion, HFTNPs have a tremendous potential as safe and effective diagnostic and therapeutic reagents for atherosclerosis.

Abstract
We report the design and characterization of Fe-containing soft materials that respond to, interface with, and/or sequester Fe-chelating 'siderophores' that bacteria use to scavenge for iron and regulate iron homeostasis. We demonstrate that metal-organic network coatings fabricated by crosslinking tannic acid with iron(III) are stable in bacterial growth media, but erode upon exposure to biologically relevant concentrations of enterobactin and deferoxamine B, two siderophores produced by Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, respectively. Our results are consistent with changes in network stability triggered by the extraction of iron(III) and reveal rates of siderophore-induced disassembly to depend upon both siderophore concentration and affinity for iron(III). These coatings also disassemble when incubated in the presence of cultures of wild-type Escherichia coli. Assays using genetically modified strains of E. coli reveal the erosion of these materials by live cultures to be promoted by secretion of enterobactin and not from other factors resulting from bacterial growth and metabolism. This stimuli-responsive behavior can also be exploited to design coatings that release the Fe-chelating antibiotic ciprofloxacin into bacterial cultures. Finally, we report the discovery of Fe-containing polymer hydrogels that avidly sequester and scavenge enterobactin from surrounding media. The materials reported here are (i) capable of interfacing or interfering with mechanisms that bacteria use to maintain iron homeostasis, either by yielding iron to or by sequestering iron-scavenging agents from bacteria, and can (ii) respond dynamically to or report on the presence of populations of iron-scavenging bacteria. Our results thus provide new tools that could prove useful for microbiological research and enable new stimuli-responsive strategies for interfacing with or controlling the behaviors of communities of iron-scavenging bacteria.

Abstract
Metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) are an emerging class of supramolecular surface modifiers with potential use in various fields including drug delivery. Here, the development of a unique MPN-integrated core-satellite nanosystem (CS-NS) is reported. The "core" component of CS-NS comprises a liposome loaded with EDTA (a metal ion chelator) in the aqueous core and DiR (a near-infrared photothermal transducer) in the bilayer. The "satellite" component comprises mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) encapsulating doxorubicin and is coated with a Cu2+ -tannic acid MPN. Liposomes and MSNs self-assemble into the CS-NS through adhesion mediated by the MPN. When irradiated with an 808 nm laser, CS-NS liberated the entrapped EDTA, leading to Cu2+ chelation and subsequent disassembly of the core-satellite nanostructure. Photo-conversion from the large assembly to the small constituent particles proceeded within 5 min. Light-triggered CS-NS disassembly enhanced the carrier and cargo penetration and accumulation in tumor spheroids in vitro and in orthotopic murine mammary tumors in vivo. CS-NS is long circulating in the blood and conferred improved survival outcomes to tumor-bearing mice treated with light, compared to controls. These results demonstrate an MPN-integrated multistage nanosystem for improved solid tumor treatment.

Abstract
Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is widely used in particle assembly to impart biocompatibility and stealth-like properties in vivo for diverse biomedical applications. Previous studies have examined the effect of PEG molecular weight and PEG coating density on the biological fate of various particles; however, there are few studies that detail the fundamental role of PEG molecular architecture in particle engineering and bio-nano interactions. Herein, we engineered PEG particles using a mesoporous silica (MS) templating method and investigated how the PEG building block architecture impacted the physicochemical properties (e.g., surface chemistry and mechanical characteristics) of the PEG particles and subsequently modulated particle-immune cell interactions in human blood. Varying the PEG architecture from 3-arm to 4-arm, 6-arm, and 8-arm generated PEG particles with a denser, stiffer structure, with increasing elastic modulus from 1.5 to 14.9 kPa, inducing an increasing level of immune cell association (from 15% for 3-arm to 45% for 8-arm) with monocytes. In contrast, the precursor PEG particles with the template intact (MS@PEG) were stiffer and generally displayed higher levels of immune cell association but showed the opposite trend-immune cell association decreased with increasing PEG arm numbers. Proteomics analysis demonstrated that the biomolecular corona that formed on the PEG particles minimally influenced particle-immune cell interactions, whereas the MS@PEG particle-cell interactions correlated with the composition of the corona that was abundant in histidine-rich glycoproteins. Our work highlights the role of PEG architecture in the design of stealth PEG-based particles, thus providing a link between the synthetic nature of particles and their biological behavior in blood.

Abstract
Polyphenols, the phenolic hydroxyl group-containing organic molecules, are widely found in natural plants and have shown beneficial effects on human health. Recently, polyphenol-containing nanoparticles have attracted extensive research attention due to their antioxidation property, anticancer activity, and universal adherent affinity, and thus have shown great promise in the preparation, stabilization, and modification of multifunctional nanoassemblies for bioimaging, therapeutic delivery, and other biomedical applications. Additionally, the metal-polyphenol networks, formed by the coordination interactions between polyphenols and metal ions, have been used to prepare an important class of polyphenol-containing nanoparticles for surface modification, bioimaging, drug delivery, and disease treatments. By focusing on the interactions between polyphenols and different materials (e.g., metal ions, inorganic materials, polymers, proteins, and nucleic acids), a comprehensive review on the synthesis and properties of the polyphenol-containing nanoparticles is provided. Moreover, the remarkable versatility of polyphenol-containing nanoparticles in different biomedical applications, including biodetection, multimodal bioimaging, protein and gene delivery, bone repair, antibiosis, and cancer theranostics is also demonstrated. Finally, the challenges faced by future research regarding the polyphenol-containing nanoparticles are discussed.

Abstract
Tannic acid (TA), a large polyphenolic molecule, has long been known for use in food additives, antioxidants, bio-sorbents, animal feed and adhesives due to its intrinsic properties such as antioxidation, metal chelation, and polymerization. Recently, there has been a renewed interest in fabricating engineered advanced materials with TA modification for novel bio-applications. The modification process involves various interactions/reactions based on its diverse chemical structure, contributed by abundant aromatic rings and hydroxyl groups. In addition, the obtained composites are endowed with retained TA activity and novel enhanced properties. Therefore, the aim of this review is to highlight the recent biomedical application of TA-based metal phenolic networks (TA-MPNs) by focusing on their intrinsic properties and the endowed ability for novel engineered functional composites. The potential contributions of TA-MPNs in "Tumor Theranostics", "Anti-Bacterial Ability", "Wound Repair for Skin Regeneration" and "Bone Tissue Regeneration Applications" are summarized in this paper.

Abstract
T cells play an important role in immunity and repair and are implicated in diseases, including blood cancers, viral infections, and inflammation, making them attractive targets for the treatment and prevention of diseases. Over recent years, the advent of nanomedicine has shown an increase in studies that use nanoparticles as carriers to deliver therapeutic cargo to T cells for ex vivo and in vivo applications. Nanoparticle-based delivery has several advantages, including the ability to load and protect a variety of drugs, control drug release, improve drug pharmacokinetics and biodistribution, and site- or cell-specific targeting. However, the delivery of nanoparticles to T cells remains a major technological challenge, which is primarily due to the nonphagocytic nature of T cells. In this review, we discuss the physiological barriers to effective T cell targeting and describe the different approaches used to deliver cargo-loaded nanoparticles to T cells for the treatment of disease such as T cell lymphoma and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In particular, engineering strategies that aim to improve nanoparticle internalization by T cells, including ligand-based targeting, will be highlighted. These nanoparticle engineering approaches are expected to inspire the development of effective nanomaterials that can target or manipulate the function of T cells for the treatment of T cell-related diseases.

Abstract
The copper tannic acid (CuTA) nanosheets with an excellent antibacterial activity were successfully prepared, which showed fine antibacterial and antifouling performance after hybridization with acrylic resin. The morphology and structure characterization of CuTA nanosheets were studied by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, etc. The plate counting method, zone of inhibition test, and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method were used to detect the antibacterial activity of the prepared samples against Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) and Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli). The results showed that the killing rates of 2 and 0.5 mg/mL of CuTA powder were close to 100% after 24 h. The MIC values of E. coli and B. subtilis were 0.25 and 0.5 mg/mL, respectively. The results of morphology and element distribution of bacteria, after treating with CuTA powder, revealed that Cu2+ and TA destroyed their cell walls and inhibited the proliferation and growth of the bacteria. Furthermore, the hybrid coating of CuTA nanosheets and acrylic resin showed brilliant antimicrobial performance for E. coli and B. subtilis and antialgae properties under a lower CuTA load (≤5%). The CuTA nanosheets with a low copper content (30.9 wt %) and low pollution have promising applications in marine antifouling coatings.

Abstract
Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is well known to endow nanoparticles (NPs) with low-fouling and stealth-like properties that can reduce immune system clearance in vivo, making PEG-based NPs (particularly sub-100 nm) of interest for diverse biomedical applications. However, the preparation of sub-100 nm PEG NPs with controllable size and morphology is challenging. Herein, we report a strategy based on the noncovalent coordination between PEG-polyphenolic ligands (PEG-gallol) and transition metal ions using a water-in-oil microemulsion phase to synthesize sub-100 nm PEG NPs with tunable size and morphology. The metal-phenolic coordination drives the self-assembly of the PEG-gallol/metal NPs: complexation between MnII and PEG-gallol within the microemulsions yields a series of metal-stabilized PEG NPs, including 30-50 nm solid and hollow NPs, depending on the MnII/gallol feed ratio. Variations in size and morphology are attributed to the changes in hydrophobicity of the PEG-gallol/MnII complexes at varying MnII/gallol ratios based on contact angle measurements. Small-angle X-ray scattering analysis, which is used to monitor the particle size and intermolecular interactions during NP evolution, reveals that ionic interactions are the dominant driving force in the formation of the PEG-gallol/MnII NPs. pH and cytotoxicity studies, and the low-fouling properties of the PEG-gallol/MnII NPs confirm their high biocompatibility and functionality, suggesting that PEG polyphenol-metal NPs are promising systems for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Nanoscale metal coordination polymers (NCPs), built from metal ions and organic ligands, have attracted tremendous interest in biomedical applications. This is mainly due to their mesoporous structure, tunable size and morphology and versatile functionality. NCPs can be further divided into nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (NMOFs) and amorphous coordination polymer particles (ACPPs) depending on their structural crystallinity. NMOFs as nanocarriers have been extensively reviewed. However, the highlights of ACPPs as theranostic nanoplatforms are still limited. In this review, the recent progress of ACPPs as theranostic nanoplatforms is summarized based on what types of organic linkers used. The ACPPs are divided into three main parts: photosensitizers-based ACPPs, chemical drugs-based ACPPs, and biomolecules-based ACPPs. Finally, the prospects and challenges of the ACPPs for enhanced biomedical applications are also discussed. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Over the last decades, amorphous metal coordination polymers (ACPPs), constructed by metal ions and organic linkers, have attracted enormous interest in cancer treatment owing to their high drug loading capability, facile synthetic procedures, low long-term toxicity, and mild preparation conditions. In this review, we highlight the recent progress of ACPPs for biomedical application based on different types of organic building blocks including photosensitizers, chemical drugs, and biomolecules. Moreover, the prospects and challenges of ACPPs for clinical application are also discussed. We hope this review entitled "Recent development of amorphous metal coordination polymers for cancer therapy" would arise the researchers' interest in this field to accelerate their clinical application in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Herein, we have proposed a soft metal-phenolic capsule (sMPC)-based electrochemical immunoassay for ultrasensitive detection of Epstein-Barr virus capsid antigen IgA (EBVCA-IgA), a biomarker of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Metal probes with large size contain a number of metal ions, which are very beneficial to signal amplification for anodic stripping voltammetry; however, these probes easily precipitate due to their heavy weight, leading to low recognition efficiency and compromised performance. In this study, we demonstrate sMPCs fabricated by metal-coordination interactions exhibit unique surface behavior compared with their solid counterparts, which significantly enhance recognition efficiency and thus improve sensitivity despite of their micrometer size. Taking advantage of the sMPCs, the involved electrochemical immunoassay shows a much-improved sensitivity with an ultralow detection limit of 0.46 fM for EBVCA-IgA and can also be used in real sample analysis. So far as we know, this is the first report on a sMPC-based electrochemical strategy. Furthermore, it clarifies the potential effect of the rigidness of probes on the performance of an involved biosensor, which is meaningful to guide the design of other functional probes. The advantages of this method, including easy to fabrication, ultrasensitivity and good selectivity, ensure a promising potential in the point-of-care diagnostics of critical diseases.

Abstract
Interfacial self-assembly has become a powerful force for regulating the amphipathy of Pickering emulsions on the oil/water interface. Herein, metal-phenolic supramolecular coatings, acting as a regulator on the oil/water interface, were fabricated on the surface of zein nanoparticles (NPs), as a consequence of which the prepared Pickering emulsions stabilized by the decorated zein NPs exhibited diverse properties, decided by different concentrations of zein, tannic acid (TA), and metal ions (Fe3+). Metal-phenolic network-decorated zein NPs named ZTFex NPs (ZTFe NPs represented zein/TA/Fe3+ NPs, and x represented different concentrations of compounds) exhibited increasing diameters of 100-110 nm. Three-phase contact angles also showed that the strong hydrophobicity of zein NPs could be decreased as a result of the formation of metal-phenolic networks. As for corresponding Pickering emulsions, the covering of TA-Fe3+ networks on zein NPs could enhance the stability of zein NP-based emulsion obviously, which might be due to the fact that ZTFex NPs revealed the ability to form strong films on the oil/water interfaces. ZTFe4 was selected as an optimal concentration because of its minimum size and excellent storage stability. Besides, it was also found that the diameter of ZTFe4-based emulsion enhanced with the increase in the oil phase. The rheological measurement results showed that both G' and G″ increased with the increase of x and the oil phase. In general, our paper not only highlighted a straightforward method for the interfacial nanofabrication of solid particles but also provided a novel and potential strategy in Pickering emulsion applications.

Abstract
Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds that are ubiquitous in plants and display a spectrum of physical, chemical, and biological properties. For example, they are antioxidants, have therapeutic properties, absorb UV radiation, and complex with metal ions. Additionally, polyphenols display high adherence, which has been exploited for assembling nanostructured materials. We previously reviewed the assembly of different phenolic materials and their applications (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2019, 58, 1904-1927); however, there is a need for a summary of the fundamental interactions that govern the assembly, stability, and function of polyphenol-based materials. A detailed understanding of interactions between polyphenols and various other building blocks will facilitate the rational design and assembly of advanced polyphenol particles for specific applications. This Account discusses how different interactions and bonding (i.e., hydrogen, π, hydrophobic, metal coordination, covalent, and electrostatic) can be leveraged to assemble and stabilize polyphenol-based particles for diverse applications. In polyphenol-mediated assembly strategies, the polyphenols typically exert more than one type of stabilizing attractive force. However, one interaction often dominates the assembly process and dictates the physicochemical behavior of the particles, which in turn influences potential applications. This Account is thus divided into sections that each focus on a key interaction with relevant examples of applications to highlight structure-function relationships. For example, metal coordination generally becomes weaker at lower pH, which makes it possible to engineer metal-phenolic materials with a pH-responsive disassembly profile suitable for drug delivery. Engineered particles, such as hollow capsules, mesoporous and core-shell particles, and self-assembled nanoparticles are some of the systems that are covered to highlight how polyphenols interact with other building blocks and therefore make up the major focus of this Account. Some of the applications of these materials exemplified in this Account include drug delivery, catalysis, environmental remediation, and forensics. Finally, a perspective is provided on the current challenges and trends in polyphenol-mediated particle assembly, and viable near-term strategies for further elucidating the interplay of various competing interactions in particle formation are discussed. This Account is also expected to serve as a reference to guide fundamental research and facilitate the rational design of polyphenol-based materials for diverse emerging applications.

Abstract
Particle-based pulmonary delivery has great potential for delivering inhalable therapeutics for local or systemic applications. The design of particles with enhanced aerodynamic properties can improve lung distribution and deposition, and hence the efficacy of encapsulated inhaled drugs. This study describes the nanoengineering and nebulization of metal-phenolic capsules as pulmonary carriers of small molecule drugs and macromolecular drugs in lung cell lines, a human lung model, and mice. Tuning the aerodynamic diameter by increasing the capsule shell thickness (from ≈100 to 200 nm in increments of ≈50 nm) through repeated film deposition on a sacrificial template allows precise control of capsule deposition in a human lung model, corresponding to a shift from the alveolar region to the bronchi as aerodynamic diameter increases. The capsules are biocompatible and biodegradable, as assessed following intratracheal administration in mice, showing >85% of the capsules in the lung after 20 h, but <4% remaining after 30 days without causing lung inflammation or toxicity. Single-cell analysis from lung digests using mass cytometry shows association primarily with alveolar macrophages, with >90% of capsules remaining nonassociated with cells. The amenability to nebulization, capacity for loading, tunable aerodynamic properties, high biocompatibility, and biodegradability make these capsules attractive for controlled pulmonary delivery.

Abstract
Nanobiohybrids, synthesized by integrating functional nanomaterials with living systems, have emerged as an exciting branch of research at the interface of materials engineering and biological science. Nanobiohybrids use synthetic nanomaterials to impart organisms with emergent properties outside their scope of evolution. Consequently, they endow new or augmented properties that are either innate or exogenous, such as enhanced tolerance against stress, programmed metabolism and proliferation, artificial photosynthesis, or conductivity. Advances in new materials design and processing technologies made it possible to tailor the physicochemical properties of the nanomaterials coupled with the biological systems. To date, many different types of nanomaterials have been integrated with various biological systems from simple biomolecules to complex multicellular organisms. Here, we provide a critical overview of recent developments of nanobiohybrids that enable new or augmented biological functions that show promise in high-tech applications across many disciplines, including energy harvesting, biocatalysis, biosensing, medicine, and robotics.

Abstract
We report the fabrication of polymer nanogels with a pH-responsive core and a pH-sheddable shell and investigate the pH-dependent cell association of the pH-responsive polymer nanogels. The pH-responsive core composed of poly(2-diisopropylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDPA) with a pKa ≈ 6.2 was synthesized by using polymerization in emulsion droplets. The pH-sheddable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) shell was coated on the amine-modified PDPA nanogels by an acid-degradable amide bond. The PEG shell is cleavable in response to the acidic tumor microenvironment, and subsequently, the surface charge of the nanogels can be reversed, which effectively enhances cellular association of these nanogels. The reported pH-responsive polymer nanogels provide a promising way for the better understanding of bio-nano interactions and potentially enrich the application of therapeutic delivery for cancer therapy.

Abstract
The intracellular delivery of functional nanoparticles (NPs) and the release of therapeutic payloads at a target site are central issues for biomedical applications. However, the endosomal entrapment of NPs typically results in the degradation of active cargo, leading to poor therapeutic outcomes. Current advances to promote the endosomal escape of NPs largely involve the use of polycationic polymers and cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs), which both can suffer from potential toxicity and convoluted synthesis/conjugation processes. Herein, we report the use of metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) as versatile and nontoxic coatings to facilitate the escape of NPs from endo/lysosomal compartments. The MPNs, which were engineered from the polyphenol tannic acid and FeIII or AlIII, enabled the endosomal escape of both inorganic (mesoporous silica) and organic (polystyrene and melamine resin) NPs owing to the "proton-sponge effect" arising from the buffering capacity of MPNs. Postfunctionalization of the MPN-coated NPs with low-fouling polymers did not impair the endosomal escape, indicating the modular and generalizable nature of this approach. We envisage that the ease of fabrication, versatility, low cytotoxicity, and promising endosomal escape performance displayed by the MPN coatings offer opportunities for such coatings to be used for the efficient delivery of cytoplasm-targeted therapeutics using NPs.

Abstract
Polyphenol-based materials are of wide-spread interest because of the unique properties of the polyphenol itself. Tannic acid, contains high level of galloyl groups, could be coordinated to a range of metal ions to generate robust mental ion-TA films on substrate or even forming hollow capsules. These films or capsules can be used in the field of sensing, separation and catalysis, most importantly in drug/nutraceutical delivery, allowing for the high loading efficiency, high mechanical and thermal stability, pH-responsive disassembly and fluorescence behavior. Additionally, such coating could also provide protection of the sensitive molecules and cells. With the numerous carbonyl and phenolic functional groups, TA has also been demonstrated to form strong hydrogen bonded multilayers with various non-ionic polymers. The properties of the hydrogen-bonded system were highly influenced by the chemical structure of the polymers, which will change the behavior of pH-, temperature- or ionic strength-responsive release of the loading molecules. Additionally, the ionization of galloyl phenol group was attributed to the interaction between TA and other ionic polymers by electrostatic interaction. The electrostatic interaction/hydrogen bonding derived TA/polyme$$%r complexes could deposit on glass slides, microcores or even forming hollow capsules, promising in their applicability to nutraceutical encapsulation, delivery and depot. Notably, polyphenols self-polymerizing could also deposit coatings on different substrates without any exogenous additives, while the comprehensive undertanding about the self-polymerizing mechenism remains unclear. This review provides a promising prospect for utilizing polyphenol-based materials to design versatile architecture in different system, used in the field of chemistry and materials science.
