Abstract
Cancer cells typically display redox imbalance compared with normal cells due to increased metabolic rate, accumulated mitochondrial dysfunction, elevated cell signaling, and accelerated peroxisomal activities. This redox imbalance may regulate gene expression, alter protein stability, and modulate existing cellular programs, resulting in inefficient treatment modalities. Therapeutic strategies targeting intra- or extracellular redox states of cancer cells at varying state of progression may trigger programmed cell death if exceeded a certain threshold, enabling therapeutic selectivity and overcoming cancer resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Nanotechnology provides new opportunities for modulating redox state in cancer cells due to their excellent designability and high reactivity. Various nanomaterials are widely researched to enhance highly reactive substances (free radicals) production, disrupt the endogenous antioxidant defense systems, or both. Here, the physiological features of redox imbalance in cancer cells are described and the challenges in modulating redox state in cancer cells are illustrated. Then, nanomaterials that regulate redox imbalance are classified and elaborated upon based on their ability to target redox regulations. Finally, the future perspectives in this field are proposed. It is hoped this review provides guidance for the design of nanomaterials-based approaches involving modulating intra- or extracellular redox states for cancer therapy, especially for cancers resistant to radiotherapy or chemotherapy, etc.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important biological messenger as well as a signaling molecule that participates in a broad range of physiological events and therapeutic applications in biological systems. However, due to its very short half-life in physiological conditions, its therapeutic applications are restricted. Efforts have been made to develop an enormous number of NO-releasing molecules (NORMs) and motifs for NO delivery to the target tissues. These NORMs involve organic nitrate, nitrite, nitro compounds, transition metal nitrosyls, and several nanomaterials. The controlled release of NO from these NORMs to the specific site requires several external stimuli like light, sound, pH, heat, enzyme, etc. Herein, we have provided a comprehensive review of the biochemistry of nitric oxide, recent advancements in NO-releasing materials with the appropriate stimuli of NO release, and their biomedical applications in cancer and other disease control.

Abstract
Upconversion (UC)/downconversion (DC)-luminescent lanthanide-doped nanocrystals (LDNCs) with near-infrared (NIR, 650-1700 nm) excitation have been gaining increasing popularity in bioimaging. However, conventional NIR-excited LDNCs cannot be degraded and eliminated eventually in vivo owing to intrinsic "rigid" lattices, thus constraining clinical applications. A biodegradability-tunable heterogeneous core-shell-shell luminescent LDNC of Na3HfF7:Yb,Er@Na3ZrF7:Yb,Er@CaF2:Yb,Zr (abbreviated as HZC) was developed and modified with oxidized sodium alginate (OSA) for multimode bioimaging. The dynamic "soft" lattice-Na3Hf(Zr)F7 host and the varying Zr4+ doping content in the outmoster CaF2 shell endowed HZC with tunable degradability. Through elaborated core-shell-shell coating, Yb3+/Er3+-coupled UC red and green and DC second near-infrared (NIR-II) emissions were, respectively, enhanced by 31.23-, 150.60-, and 19.42-fold when compared with core nanocrystals. HZC generated computed tomography (CT) imaging contrast effects, thus enabling NIR-II/CT/UC trimodal imaging. OSA modification not only ensured the exemplary biocompatibility of HZC but also enabled tumor-specific diagnosis. The findings would benefit the clinical imaging translation of LDNCs.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive impairment, memory loss, and behavioral deficits. β-amyloid1-42 (Aβ1-42) aggregation is a significant cause of the pathogenesis in AD. Despite the numerous types of research, the current treatment efficacy remains insufficient. Hence, a novel therapeutic strategy is required. Nitric oxide (NO) is a multifunctional gaseous molecule. NO displays a neuroprotective role in the central nervous system by inhibiting the Aβ aggregation and rescuing memory and learning deficit through the NO signaling pathway. Targeting the NO pathway might be a therapeutic option; however, NO has a limited half-life under the biological system. To address this issue, a biomimetic dinitrosyl iron complex [(NO)2Fe(μ-SCH2CH2COOH)2Fe(NO)2] (DNIC-COOH) that could stably deliver NO was explored in the current study. To determine whether DNIC-COOH exerts anti-AD efficacy, DNIC-COOH was added to neuron-like cells and primary cortical neurons along with Aβ1-42. This study found that DNIC-COOH protected neuronal cells from Aβ-induced cytotoxicity, potentiated neuronal functions, and facilitated Aβ1-42 degradation through the NO-sGC-cGMP-AKT-GSK3β-CREB/MMP-9 pathway.

Synthesis, cytotoxicity, and biomacromolecule binding: Three isomers of nitrosylruthenium complexes with bidentate bioactive molecules as co-ligands. Int J Biol Macromol 2023:125009.

Abstract
Three isomeric nitrosylruthenium complexes [RuNO(Qn)(PZA)Cl] (P1, P2, and P3) with bioactive small molecules 8-hydroxyquinoline (Qn) and pyrazinamide (PZA) as co-ligands were synthesized, and their crystal structures were determined using X-ray diffraction technique. The cellular toxicity of the isomeric complexes was compared to understand the effects of the geometries on the biological activity of the complexes. Both the complexes and the human serum albumin (HSA) complex adducts affected the extent of proliferation of HeLa cells (IC50: 0.77-1.45 μM). P2 showed prominent activity-induced cell apoptosis and arrested cell cycles at the G1 phase. The binding constants (Kb) of the complex with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) and HSA were quantitatively evaluated using fluorescence spectroscopy in the range of 0.17-1.56 × 104 M-1 and 0.88-3.21 × 105 M-1, respectively. The average binding site (n) number was close to 1. Moreover, the structure of HSA and the P2 complex adduct solved at the resolution of 2.48 Å revealed that one PZA-coordinated nitrosylruthenium complex bound at the subdomain I of HSA via a noncoordinative bond. HSA could serve as a potential nano-delivery system. This study provides a framework for the rational design of metal-based drugs.

Abstract
Gas therapy based on nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as a potential therapeutic approach for cancer, and in conjunction with multi-mode combination therapy, offers new possibilities for achieving significant hyperadditive effects. In this study, an integrated AI-MPDA@BSA nanocomposite for diagnosis and treatment was constructed for PDA based photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and cascade NO release. Natural NO donor L-arginine (L-Arg) and photosensitizer (PS) IR780 were loaded into mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA). Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was conjugated to the MPDA to increase the dispersibility and biocompatibility of the nanoparticles, as well as to serve as a gatekeeper controlling IR780 release from the MPDA pores. The AI-MPDA@BSA produced singlet oxygen (1O2) and converted it into NO through a chain reaction based on L-Arg, enabling a combination of photodynamic therapy and gas therapy. Moreover, due to the photothermal properties of MPDA, the AI-MPDA@BSA performed good photothermal conversion, which allowed photoacoustic imaging. As expected, both in vitro and in vivo studies have confirmed that the AI-MPDA@BSA nanoplatform has a significant inhibitory effect on cancer cells and tumors, and no apparent systemic toxicity or side effects were detected during the treatment period.

Abstract
Photoredox catalysis has emerged as a robust tool for chemical synthesis. However, it remains challenging to implement photoredox catalysis under physiological conditions due to the complex microenvironment and the quenching of photocatalyst by biologically relevant molecules such as oxygen. Here, we report that UV-absorbing N,N'-dinitroso-1,4-phenylenediamine derivatives can be selectively activated by fac-Ir(ppy)3 photocatalyst within micellar nanoparticles under visible light irradiation (e.g., 500 nm) through photoredox catalysis in aerated aqueous solutions to form quinonediimine (QDI) residues with concomitant release of NO. Notably, the formation of QDI derivatives can actively scavenge the reactive oxygen species generated by fac-Ir(ppy)3 , thus avoiding oxygen quenching of the photocatalyst. Further, we exemplify that the oxygen-tolerant photoredox catalysis-mediated NO release can not only kill planktonic bacteria in vitro but also efficiently treat MRSA infections in vivo.

Abstract
Multiphoton upconversion that can convert near-infrared irradiation into ultraviolet emission offers many unique opportunities for photocatalysis and phototherapy. However, the high-lying excited states of lanthanide emitters are often quenched by the interior lattice defects and deleterious interactions among different lanthanides, resulting in weak ultraviolet emission. Here, we describe a novel excitation energy lock-in approach to boost ultraviolet upconversion emission in a new class of multilayer core-shell nanoparticles with a gadolinium-rich core domain. Remarkably, we observe more than 70-fold enhancements in Gd 3+ emission from the designed nanoparticles compared with the conventional nanoparticles. Our mechanistic investigation reveals that the combination of energy migration over the core domain and optically inert NaYF 4 interlayer can effectively confine the excitation energy and thus lead to intense multiphoton ultraviolet emission in upconversion nanostructures. We further achieve a 35.6% increase in photocatalytic reactivity and 26.5% in reactive oxygen species production yield in ZnO-coated upconversion nanocomposites under 808-nm excitation. This study provides a new insight to energy transfer mechanism in lanthanide-doped nanoparticles, and offers an exciting avenue for exploring novel near-infrared photocatalysts.

Abstract
Gas therapy has attracted wide attention for the treatment of various diseases. However, a controlled gas release is highly important for biomedical applications. Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) can precisely convert the long wavelength of light to ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis) light in gas therapy for the controlled gas release owing to their unique upconversion luminescence (UCL) ability. In this review, we mainly summarized the recent progress of UCNP-based nanocomposites in gas therapy.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an essential endogenous signaling molecule regulating multifaceted physiological functions in the (cardio)vascular, neuronal, and immune systems. Due to the short half-life and location-/concentration-dependent physiological function of NO, translational application of NO as a novel therapeutic approach, however, awaits a strategy for spatiotemporal control on the delivery of NO. Inspired by the magnetic hyperthermia and magneto-triggered drug release featured by Fe3O4 conjugates, in this study, we aim to develop a magnetic responsive NO-release material (MagNORM) featuring dual NO-release phases, namely, burst and steady release, for the selective activation of NO-related physiology and treatment of bacteria-infected cutaneous wound. After conjugation of NO-delivery [Fe(μ-S-thioglycerol)(NO)2]2 with a metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived porous Fe3O4@C, encapsulation of obtained conjugates within the thermo-responsive poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microsphere completes the assembly of MagNORM. Through continuous/pulsatile/no application of the alternating magnetic field (AMF) to MagNORM, moreover, burst/intermittent/slow release of NO from MagNORM demonstrates the AMF as an ON/OFF switch for temporal control on the delivery of NO. Under continuous application of the AMF, in particular, burst release of NO from MagNORM triggers an effective anti-bacterial activity against both Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli). In addition to the magneto-triggered bactericidal effect of MagNORM against E. coli-infected cutaneous wound in mice, of importance, steady release of NO from MagNORM without the AMF promotes the subsequent collagen formation and wound healing in mice.

Abstract
Impurity doping is a promising method to impart new properties to various materials. Due to their unique optical, magnetic, and electrical properties, rare-earth ions have been extensively explored as active dopants in inorganic crystal lattices since the 18th century. Rare-earth doping can alter the crystallographic phase, morphology, and size, leading to tunable optical responses of doped nanomaterials. Moreover, rare-earth doping can control the ultimate electronic and catalytic performance of doped nanomaterials in a tunable and scalable manner, enabling significant improvements in energy harvesting and conversion. A better understanding of the critical role of rare-earth doping is a prerequisite for the development of an extensive repertoire of functional nanomaterials for practical applications. In this review, we highlight recent advances in rare-earth doping in inorganic nanomaterials and the associated applications in many fields. This review covers the key criteria for rare-earth doping, including basic electronic structures, lattice environments, and doping strategies, as well as fundamental design principles that enhance the electrical, optical, catalytic, and magnetic properties of the material. We also discuss future research directions and challenges in controlling rare-earth doping for new applications.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important signaling molecule that is involved in a wide range of physiological and pathological events in biology. Metal coordination chemistry, especially with iron, is at the heart of many biological transformations involving NO. A series of heme proteins, nitric oxide synthases (NOS), soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), and nitrophorins, are responsible for the biosynthesis, sensing, and transport of NO. Alternatively, NO can be generated from nitrite by heme- and copper-containing nitrite reductases (NIRs). The NO-bearing small molecules such as nitrosothiols and dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNICs) can serve as an alternative vehicle for NO storage and transport. Once NO is formed, the rich reaction chemistry of NO leads to a wide variety of biological activities including reduction of NO by heme or non-heme iron-containing NO reductases and protein post-translational modifications by DNICs. Much of our understanding of the reactivity of metal sites in biology with NO and the mechanisms of these transformations has come from the elucidation of the geometric and electronic structures and chemical reactivity of synthetic model systems, in synergy with biochemical and biophysical studies on the relevant proteins themselves. This review focuses on recent advancements from studies on proteins and model complexes that not only have improved our understanding of the biological roles of NO but also have provided foundations for biomedical research and for bio-inspired catalyst design in energy science.

Abstract
Owing to deep activation in biotissues and enhanced targeting efficiency, developing photoresponsive polymer-upconversion nanoparticles (PP-UCNPs) nanovectors has witnessed rapid growth in the past decade. However, up to date, all developed nanovectors require high-order photon processes to initiate the release of cargos. The photodamage caused by high-power near-infrared laser light may be a critical obstacle to their clinical application. Here, for the first time, by leveraging absorption-emission spectral matching between donor-acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASA) PP and UCNPs (λex , 808 nm) in the green region (≈530 nm), the designed nanovector is capable of releasing cargos at a low-power 808 nm excitation (0.2 W). Considering the high molar absorptivity, biobenign, and synthetic tunability of DASA, DASA PP can be utilized as an up-and-coming candidate to design and synthesize the next generation of upconversion nanovectors without photodamage.

Abstract
The development of alternative strategies for the efficient treatment of subcutaneous abscesses that do not require the massive use of antibiotics and surgical intervention is urgently needed. Herein, a novel synergistic antibacterial strategy based on photodynamic (PDT) and NO gas therapy is reported, in which, a PDT-driven NO controllable generation system (Ce6@Arg-ADP) is developed with l-Arg-rich amphiphilic dendritic peptide (Arg-ADP) as a carrier. This carrier not only displays superior bacterial association and biofilm penetration performance, but also acts as a versatile NO donor. Following efficient penetration into the interior of the biofilms, Ce6@Arg-ADP can rapidly produce massive NO via utilizing the H2 O2 generated during PDT to oxidize Arg-ADP to NO and l-citrulline, without affecting singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) production. The combination of 1 O2 and the reactive by-products of NO offers notable synergistic antibacterial and biofilm eradication effects. Importantly, following efficient elimination of all bacteria from the abscess site, Arg-ADP can further generate trace quantities of NO to facilitate the angiogenesis and epithelialization of the wound tissues, thereby notably promotes wound healing. Together, this study clearly suggests that Arg-ADP is a versatile NO donor, and the combination of PDT and NO represents a promising strategy for the efficient treatment of subcutaneous abscesses.

Abstract
How to deliver nitric oxide (NO) to a physiological target and control its release quantitatively is a key issue for biomedical applications. Here, a water-soluble nitrosylruthenium complex, [(CH3)4N][RuCl3(5cqn)(NO)] (H5cqn = 5-chloro-8-quinoline), was synthesized, and its structure was confirmed with 1H NMR and X-ray crystal diffraction. Photoinduced NO release was investigated with time-resolved Fourier transform infrared and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopies. The binding constant of the [RuCl3(5cqn)(NO)]- complex with human serum albumin (HSA) was determined by fluorescence spectroscopy, and the binding mode was identified by X-ray crystallography of the HSA and Ru-NO complex adduct. The crystal structure reveals that two molecules of the Ru-NO complex are located in the subdomain IB, which is one of the major drug binding regions of HSA. The chemical structures of the Ru complexes were [RuCl3(5cqn)(NO)]- and [RuCl3(Glycerin)NO]-, in which the electron densities for all ligands to Ru are unambiguously identified. EPR spin-trapping data showed that photoirradiation triggered NO radical generation from the HSA complex adduct. Moreover, the near-infrared image of exogenous NO from the nitrosylruthenium complex in living cells was observed using a NO-selective fluorescent probe. This study provides a strategy to design an appropriate delivery system to transport NO and metallodrugs in vivo for potential applications.

Abstract
Activating upconversion nanoparticle-based photoresponsive nanovectors (UCPNVs) by upconversion visible light at low-power near-infrared (NIR) excitation can realize deeper biotissue stimulation with a minimized overheating effect and photodamage. Here, we demonstrate a facile strategy to construct new surface-decorated UCPNVs based on Passerini three-component reaction (P-3CR) in highly convenient and effective manners. Such UCPNVs materials have a tailored deprotecting wavelength that overlaps upconversion blue light. By using 3-perylenecarboxaldehyde, Tm3+/Yb3+ ion-doped UCNP-containing isocyanides, and antitumor agent chlorambucil as the three components, the resulting monodisperse UCPNV exhibits an efficient release of caged chlorambucil under a very low 976 nm power. This approach expands the synthetic toolbox to enable quick development of UCPNVs for UCNP-assisted low-power NIR photochemistry.

Abstract
The shortened Abstract is as follows: Therapeutic gas nitric oxide (NO) has demonstrated the unique advances in biomedical applications due to its prominent role in regulating physiological/pathophysiological activities in terms of vasodilation, angiogenesis, chemosensitizing effect, and bactericidal effect. However, it is challenging to deliver NO, due to its short half-life (<5 s) and short diffusion distances (20-160 µm). To address these, various polymeric NO delivery nanoplatforms (PNODNPs) have been developed for cancer therapy, antimicrobial and cardiovascular therapeutics, because of the important advantages of polymeric delivery nanoplatforms in terms of controlled release of therapeutics and the extremely versatile nature. This reviews highlights the recent significant advances made in PNODNPs for NO storing and targeting delivery. The ideal and unique criteria that are required for PNODNPs for treating cancer, cardiovascular diseases and infection, respectively, are summarized. Hopefully, effective storage and targeted delivery of NO in a controlled manner using PNODNPs could pave the way for NO-sensitized synergistic therapy in clinical practice for treating the leading death-causing diseases.

Abstract
Photoactivatable (alternatively, photoremovable, photoreleasable, or photocleavable) protecting groups (PPGs), also known as caged or photocaged compounds, are used to enable non-invasive spatiotemporal photochemical control over the release of species of interest. Recent years have seen the development of PPGs activatable by biologically and chemically benign visible and near-infrared (NIR) light. These long-wavelength-absorbing moieties expand the applicability of this powerful method and its accessibility to non-specialist users. This review comprehensively covers organic and transition metal-containing photoactivatable compounds (complexes) that absorb in the visible- and NIR-range to release various leaving groups and gasotransmitters (carbon monoxide, nitric oxide, and hydrogen sulfide). The text also covers visible- and NIR-light-induced photosensitized release using molecular sensitizers, quantum dots, and upconversion and second-harmonic nanoparticles, as well as release via photodynamic (photooxygenation by singlet oxygen) and photothermal effects. Release from photoactivatable polymers, micelles, vesicles, and photoswitches, along with the related emerging field of photopharmacology, is discussed at the end of the review.

Abstract
Light-responsive hydrogels are useful platforms to study cellular responses. Current photosensitive motifs need UV light to be activated, which is intrinsically cytotoxic and has a low penetration depth in tissues. Herein we describe a strategy for near-infrared (NIR) controlled activation of cellular processes (3D cell spreading and angiogenesis) by embedding upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) in a hydrogel modified with light-activatable cell adhesive motifs. The UCNPs can convert NIR light (974 nm) into local UV emission and activate photochemical reactions on-demand. Such optoregulation is spatially controllable, dose-dependent and can be performed at different timepoints of the cell culture without appreciable photodamage of the cells. HUVEC cells embedded in this hydrogel can form vascular networks at predefined geometries determined by the irradiation pattern. The penetration depth of NIR light enabled activation of the angiogenesis response through skin tissue with a thickness of 2.5 mm. Our strategy opens a new avenue for 4D cell cultures, with the potential to be extended to dynamically manipulate cell-matrix interactions and derived cellular processes in vivo.

Abstract
Achieving efficient and biocompatible detachment between adhered wet materials (i.e., tissues and hydrogels) is a major challenge. Recently, photodetachable topological adhesion has shown great promise as a strategy for conquering this hurdle. However, this photodetachment was triggered by UV light with poor biocompatibility and penetration capacity. This study describes near-infrared (NIR) light-detached topological adhesion based on polyacrylic acid coated upconverting nanoparticles (UCNP@PAA) and a photodetachable adhesive (termed Cell-Fe). Cell-Fe is a coordinated topological adhesive consisting of carboxymethylcellulose and Fe3+ that can be photodecomposed by UV light. To prepare a substrate for NIR-detached topological adhesion, UCNP@PAA and Cell-Fe were mixed and brushed on the surface of the model adherent. The UCNP@PAA can harvest NIR light and convert it into UV light, triggering the decomposition of the Cell-Fe and inducing the detachment. This NIR-detached topological adhesion is also feasible in deep tissue because of the ability of NIR light to penetrate tissue.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOx) can react with intracellular glucose and oxygen (O2 ) to produce hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) and gluconic acid, which can cut off the nutrition source of cancer cells and consequently inhibit their proliferation. Therefore, GOx is recognised as an ideal endogenous oxido-reductase for cancer starvation therapy. This process can further regulate the tumor microenvironment by increasing the hypoxia and the acidity. Thus, GOx offers new possibilities for the elaborate design of multifunctional nanocomposites for tumor therapy. However, natural GOx is expensive to prepare and purify and exhibits immunogenicity, short in vivo half-life, and systemic toxicity. Furthermore, GOx is highly prone to degrade after exposure to biological conditions. These intrinsic shortcomings will undoubtedly limit its biomedical applications. Accordingly, some nanocarriers can be used to protect GOx from the surrounding environment, thus controlling or preserving the activity. A variety of nanocarriers including hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles, metal-organic frameworks, organic polymers, and magnetic nanoparticles are summarized for the construction of GOx-based nanocomposites for multimodal synergistic cancer therapy. In addition, current challenges and promising developments in this area are highlighted.

Abstract
Engineering of smart photoactivated nanomaterials for targeted drug delivery systems (DDS) has recently attracted considerable research interest as light enables precise and accurate controlled release of drug molecules in specific diseased cells and/or tissues in a highly spatial and temporal manner. In general, the development of appropriate light-triggered DDS relies on processes of photolysis, photoisomerization, photo-cross-linking/un-cross-linking, and photoreduction, which are normally sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) or visible (Vis) light irradiation. Considering the issues of poor tissue penetration and high phototoxicity of these high-energy photons of UV/Vis light, recently nanocarriers have been developed based on light-response to low-energy photon irradiation, in particular for the light wavelengths located in the near infrared (NIR) range. NIR light-triggered drug release systems are normally achieved by using two-photon absorption and photon upconversion processes. Herein, recent advances of light-responsive nanoplatforms for controlled drug release are reviewed, covering the mechanism of light responsive small molecules and polymers, UV and Vis light responsive nanocarriers, and NIR light responsive nanocarriers. NIR-light triggered drug delivery by two-photon excitation and upconversion luminescence strategies is also included. In addition, the challenges and future perspectives for the development of light triggered DDS are highlighted.

Abstract
Gas-involving cancer theranostics have attracted considerable attention in recent years due to their high therapeutic efficacy and biosafety. We have reviewed the recent significant advances in the development of stimuli-responsive gas releasing molecules (GRMs) and gas nanogenerators for cancer bioimaging, targeted and controlled gas therapy, and gas-sensitized synergistic therapy. We have focused on gases with known anticancer effects, such as oxygen (O2), carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxide (NO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), hydrogen (H2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), carbon dioxide (CO2), and heavy gases that act via the gas-generating process. The GRMs and gas nanogenerators for each gas have been described in terms of the stimulation method, followed by their applications in ultrasound and multimodal imaging, and finally their primary and synergistic actions with other cancer therapeutic modalities. The current challenges and future possibilities of gas therapy and imaging vis-à-vis clinical translation have also been discussed.

Abstract
Devices consisting of polymer disks (PDs) of optically clear or translucent, medical-grade silicone loaded with a new hydrophobic, oxygen-stable, photoactivated nitric oxide-releasing moiety (photoNORM) are described. The photoNORM is the new O-nitrito chromium(III) complex trans-[Cr(PetA)(ONO)2](BF4) (PetA = 5,14-dimethyl-7,12-diphenyl-1,4,8,11-tetraaza-cyclotetradecane), of which the synthesis, X-ray crystal structure, and solution-phase photochemistry are described. Several different commercially available silicone polymers were tested with this photoNORM, and nitric oxide photouncaging with 451 nm light from these systems is compared. In addition, PDs were loaded with the photoNORM and neodymium-sensitized upconverting nanoparticles (Nd-UCNPs). The Nd-UCNPs absorb NIR light at ∼800 nm and activate NO release from the trans-[Cr(PetA)(ONO)2]+ cation. The use of such ensembles as implants provides a potential strategy for the in vivo uncaging of NO at physiological targets triggered by tissue-transmitting NIR excitation. Also reported are the X-ray crystal structures of cis- and trans-{Cr(PetA)Cl2]Cl.

Abstract
Although nitric oxide (NO) can be used to treat osteoarthritis (OA) by inhibiting inflammation, a method for the accurately controlled release of NO in inflammatory cells is still elusive. Herein, photothermal-triggered NO nanogenerators NO-Hb@siRNA@PLGA-PEG (NHsPP) were constructed by assembling photothermal-agents and NO molecules within nanoparticles. In the NHsPP nanoparticles the hemoglobin (Hb) nanoparticles can act as a NO carrier which can absorb near-infrared light at 650 nm (0.5 W cm-2) and convert it into heat to trigger the release of NO. Moreover, after loading Notch1-siRNA, precise treatment can be achieved. Furthermore, using the synergistic effect of photothermal therapy, the NHsPP nanoparticles achieved simultaneous treatment with NO, siRNA and PTT. Through this combination therapy, the therapeutic effect of the NHsPP nanoparticles was significantly enhanced compared to the treatment groups using only NO, siRNA or PTT. This combination therapy inhibits the inflammatory response effectively by reducing the level of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the macrophage response. Subsequently, guided by dual-modal imaging, the NHsPP nanoparticles can not only accumulate effectively in OA mice, but can also reduce the inflammatory response and efficiently prevent cartilage erosion, without causing toxic side effects in the major organs. Therefore, this novel photothermal nanoparticle-based NO-releasing system is expected to be a potential alternative for clinical inflammatory disease therapy and may provide image guidance when combined with other nanotherapy systems.

Abstract
Mild photothermal therapy (PTT), as a new anticancer therapeutic strategy, faces big challenges of limited therapeutic accuracy and side-effects due to uneven heat distribution. Here, near infrared triggered nitric oxide (NO) release nanocomposites based on bismuth sulfide (Bi2S3) nanoparticles and bis-N-nitroso compounds (BNN) are constructed for NO-enhanced mild photothermal therapy. Upon 808 nm irradiation, the high photothermal conversion efficiency and on-demand NO release are realized simultaneously. Due to the unique properties of NO, enhanced antitumor efficacy of mild PTT based on BNN-Bi2S3 nanocomposites is achieved in vitro and in vivo. Mechanism studies reveal that the exogenous NO from BNN-Bi2S3 could not only impair the autophagic self-repairing ability of tumor cells in situ, but also diffuse to the surrounding cells to enhance the therapeutic effect. This work points out a strategy to overcome the difficulties in mild PTT, and has potentials for further exploitation of NO-sensitized synergistic cancer therapy.

Abstract
This study reports a strategy of combining a Pt(iv) prodrug and a ruthenium nitrosyl (Ru-NO) donor into a single nanoplatform {N-GQDs@Ru-NO-Pt@FA} in which the platinum(iv) prodrug is conjugated onto a photoactivatable NO donor (Ru-NO) through a covalent bond and the nitric oxide-releasing platinum prodrug and folate groups are decorated on N-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs). After cellular uptake of the nanoplatform, the platinum(iv) prodrug was reduced to an active anti-cancer Pt(ii) species inside the cancerous cells, and simultaneously, near-infrared (NIR) light illumination induced the release of NO, accompanied by a prominent photothermal effect. This nanoplatform is capable of targeting intracellular co-delivery of Pt(ii) and NO under 808 nm NIR light irradiation, accompanied by photothermal therapy, thereby leading to a significant synergistic therapeutic effect.

Abstract
The structures and spectral properties of three ruthenium complexes with 8-hydroxyquinoline (Hhqn) and their derivatives 2-methyl-8-quinolinoline (H2mqn) and 2-chloro-8-quiolinoline (H2cqn) as ligands (QN = hqn, 2mqn, or 2cqn) were calculated with density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP level. The UV-Vis and IR spectra of the three [RuCl(QN)NO]− complexes were theoretically assigned via DFT calculations. The calculated spectra reasonably correspond to the experimentally measured spectra. Photoinduced NO release was confirmed through spin trapping of the electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR), and the dynamic process of the NO dissociation upon photoirradiation was monitored using time-resolved infrared (IR) spectroscopy. Moreover, the energy levels and related components of frontier orbitals were further analyzed to understand the electronic effects of the substituent groups at the 2nd position of the ligands on their photochemical reactivity. This study provides the basis for the design of NO donors with potential applications in photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
NO donating iron nitrosyl complex with 2-aminothiophenyl ligand (2-AmPh complex) was studied for its ability to cause cell death and affect nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling. The complex inhibited viability of HeLa cells and induced cell death that was accompanied by loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and characteristic for apoptosis phosphatidylserine externalization. At IC50, 2-AmPh caused decrease in nuclear content of NF-κB p65 polypeptide and mRNA expression of NF-κB target genes encoding interleukin-8 and anti-apoptotic protein BIRC3. mRNA levels of interleukin-6 and anti-apoptotic protein BIRC2 encoding genes were not affected. Our data demonstrate that NO donating iron nitrosyl complex 2-AmPh can inhibit tumor cell viability and induce apoptosis that is preceded by impairment of NF-κB function and suppression of a subset of NF-κB target genes.

Abstract
This study reports a tumor-specific ROS-responsive nanoplatform capable of the combination of nitric oxide (NO)-based gas therapy and sensitized photodynamic therapy (PDT). The nanoplatform is constructed on porous coordination network (PCN), which contains NO donor L-Arg and is concurrently coated with cancer cell membrane (L-Arg@PCN@Mem). Under near infrared light (NIR) irradiation, L-Arg@PCN@Mem produces plenty of reactive oxygen species (ROS) directly for PDT therapy, while a part of ROS take the role of oxidative to converse L-Arg into NO for combined gas therapy. The results indicate that the transformation of ROS to NO can enhance PDT efficacy in hypoxic tumors owing to the ability of NO in freely diffusing into deep hypoxic tumor site. Moreover, homologous targeting function originated from the coating of cancer cells membrane further improves the tumor treatment effect owing to the biotargeting toward homologous tumors. This L-Arg@PCN@Mem nanoplatform provides a new therapy paradigm of overcoming the hypoxia barrier of tumor therapy, and holds great potential for the treatment of tumor and NO-related diseases.

Abstract
Exogenous nitric oxide (NO) represents an attractive antibacterial agent because of its ability to both disperse and directly kill bacterial biofilms while avoiding resistance. Due to the challenges associated with administering gaseous NO, NO-releasing macromolecular scaffolds are developed to facilitate NO delivery. This progress report describes the rational design and application of NO-releasing macromolecular scaffolds as antibacterial therapeutics. Special consideration is given to the role of the physicochemical properties of the NO storage vehicles on antibacterial or anti-biofilm activity.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) holds great promise as a treatment for cancer hypoxia, if its concentration and localization can be precisely controlled. Here, we report a "Trojan Horse" strategy to provide the necessary spatial, temporal, and dosage control of such drug-delivery therapies at targeted tissues. Described is a unique package consisting of (1) a manganese-nitrosyl complex, which is a photoactivated NO-releasing moiety (photoNORM), plus Nd3+-doped upconverting nanoparticles (Nd-UCNPs) incorporated into (2) biodegradable polymer microparticles that are taken up by (3) bone-marrow derived murine macrophages. Both the photoNORM [Mn(NO)dpaqNO2 ]BPh4(dpaqNO2 = 2-[N,N-bis(pyridin-2-yl-methyl)]-amino-N'-5-nitro-quinolin-8-yl-acetamido) and the Nd-UCNPs are activated by tissue-penetrating near-infrared (NIR) light at ∼800 nm. Thus, simultaneous therapeutic NO delivery and photoluminescence (PL) imaging can be achieved with a NIR diode laser source. The loaded microparticles are non-toxic to their macrophage hosts in the absence of light. The microparticle-carrying macrophages deeply penetrate into NIH-3T3/4T1 tumor spheroid models, and when the infiltrated spheroids are irradiated with NIR light, NO is released in quantifiable amounts while emission from the Nd-UCNPs provides images of microparticle location. Furthermore, varying the intensity of the NIR excitation allows photochemical control over NO release. Low doses reduce levels of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) in the tumor cells, while high doses are cytotoxic. The use of macrophages to carry microparticles with a NIR photo-activated theranostic payload into a tumor overcomes challenges often faced with therapeutic administration of NO and offers the potential of multiple treatment strategies with a single system.
