Abstract
Hydrogels with tailor-made swelling-shrinkable properties have aroused considerable interest in numerous biomedical domains. For example, as swelling is a key issue for blood and wound extrudates absorption, the transference of nutrients and metabolites, as well as drug diffusion and release, hydrogels with high swelling capacity have been widely applicated in full-thickness skin wound healing and tissue regeneration, and drug delivery. Nevertheless, in the fields of tissue adhesives and internal soft-tissue wound healing, and bioelectronics, non-swelling hydrogels play very important functions owing to their stable macroscopic dimension and physical performance in physiological environment. Moreover, the negative swelling behavior (i.e., shrinkage) of hydrogels can be exploited to drive noninvasive wound closure, and achieve resolution enhancement of hydrogel scaffolds. In addition, it can help push out the entrapped drugs, thus promote drug release. However, there still has not been a general review of the constructions and biomedical applications of hydrogels from the viewpoint of swelling-shrinkable properties. Therefore, this review summarizes the tactics employed so far in tailoring the swelling-shrinkable properties of hydrogels and their biomedical applications. And a relatively comprehensive understanding of the current progress and future challenge of the hydrogels with different swelling-shrinkable features is provided for potential clinical translations.

Abstract
In this study, novel folate-receptor-targeted polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer functional mesoporous silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles were prepared for drug delivery agents for photodynamic therapy applications. The surface of the magnetic nanoparticles was coated with mesoporous silica (M-MSN). The M-MSN nanoparticles were functionalized with siloxane-cored PAMAM dendrons (generation 1 to 3). The surface of the M-MSN-PAMAM nanocarriers was targeted with folic acid. Indocyanine green (ICG) a near-infrared dye was loaded in the M-MSN-PAMAM nanocarriers and the photodynamic therapy efficiency of the drug-loaded nanocarriers was evaluated on MCF-7 cells. MCF-7 cells were subjected to tissue culture E-Plate that was used to generate dynamic real-time data by measuring electrical impedance across interdigitated microelectrodes on the bottom of the plate. Light source (LEDs) was designed as a system that fit 96 well-plate and cells were irradiated at 785 nm for 20 min. Also, these results were confirmed by WST-1 assay in dark and light conditions for MCF-7 cells. The results showed that in vitro application of ICG loaded M-MSN-PAMAM-FA causes apoptosis in the MCF-7 cell line.

Abstract
Herein we designed a novel, highly sensitive, simple and amplified fluorescence immunosensing strategy for hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBV surface antigen) (HBsAg) as a model based on the construction of a sandwich type probe. The operation mechanism of this immunosensing strategy is implemented by capturing and then stimulation-based-releasing of entrapped dye in the fluorescent capsules. The proposed probe is made by the Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticle (Fe3O4 MNP) as a probe collector site and the Rhodamine B loaded-mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN-Rh.B) as a fluorescent mesoporous capsule and signal amplifier site. Such a methodology is benefited, from the advantages of the high ability of MSNs to be used as a scaffold for efficient dye encapsulation and the magnetic nanoparticles as efficient biological carriers. Under optimal conditions, the fluorescence signal (The fluorescence of solutions was measured using a quartz fluorescence cell (PMT voltage:720, Ex wavelegth:540, Em wavelength:568, All measurements were carried out at room temperature) increased with the increment of HBsAg concentration in the linear dynamic range of 6.1 ag/ml to 0.012 ng/ml with a detection limit (LOD) of 5.7 ag/ml. The relative standard deviation, measured between the resulting fluorescence peaks was obtained by 6.0%.

Abstract
Self-powered piezoelectrically active molecular or protein delivery devices have provoked great interest in recent years. However, electric fields used to promote delivery or healing may also induce the redox of water or oxygen to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and bring unintended oxidative pressure to the organism and harm biological functions. In addition, protein molecules are easily inactivated in the polymer reservoir matrix due to the pull of strong electrostatic effects. In this study, a multifunctional molecular delivery substrate was fabricated by integrating a piezoelectric-dielectric polymeric substrate, nanoscopic polyelectrolyte films and in-film deposited biomimetic porous CaP coating. The piezoelectric substrate promoted molecular release, and the mineralized coating effectively stored molecules or proteins and simultaneously eliminated ROS, reducing the oxidative stress response generated by oxidative pressure. The present work opens a new way for the development of multifunctional and biofriendly drug delivery devices.

Abstract
The development of new food preservatives is essential to prevent foodborne outbreaks or food spoilage due to microbial growth, enzymatic activity or oxidation. Furthermore, new compounds that substitute the commonly used synthetic food preservatives are needed to stifle the rising problem of microbial resistance. In this scenario, we report herein, as far as we know, for the first time the use of the zein protein as a gating moiety and its application for the controlled release of essential oil components (EOCs). The design of microdevices consist of mesoporous silica particles loaded with essential oils components (thymol, carvacrol and cinnamaldehyde) and functionalized with the zein (prolamin) protein found in corn as a molecular gate. The zein protein grafted on the synthesized microdevices is degraded by the proteolytic action of bacterial enzymatic secretions with the consequent release of the loaded essential oil components efficiently inhibiting bacterial growth. The results allow us to conclude that the new microdevice presented here loaded with the essential oil component cinnamaldehyde improved the antimicrobial properties of the free compound by decreasing volatility and increasing local concentration.

Abstract
Tuning the enzymatic degradation and disassembly rates of polymeric amphiphiles and their assemblies is crucial for designing enzyme-responsive nanocarriers for controlled drug delivery applications. The common methods to control the enzymatic degradation of amphiphilic polymers are to tune the molecular weights and ratios of the hydrophilic and hydrophobic blocks. In addition to these approaches, the architecture of the hydrophilic block can also serve as a tool to tune enzymatic degradation and disassembly. To gain a deeper understanding of the effect of the molecular architecture of the hydrophilic block, we prepared two types of well-defined PEG-dendron amphiphiles bearing linear or V-shaped PEG chains as the hydrophilic blocks. The high molecular precision of these amphiphiles, which emerges from the utilization of dendrons as the hydrophobic blocks, allowed us to study the self-assembly and enzymatic degradation and disassembly of the two types of amphiphiles with high resolution. Interestingly, the micelles of the V-shaped amphiphiles were significantly smaller and disassembled faster than those of the amphiphiles based on linear PEG. However, the complete enzymatic cleavage of the hydrophobic end groups was significantly slower for the V-shaped amphiphiles. Our results show that the V-shaped architecture can stabilize the unimer state and, hence, plays a double role in the enzymatic degradation and the induced disassembly and how it can be utilized to control the release of encapsulated or bound molecular cargo.

Abstract
Conventional systemic chemotherapeutic regimens suffer from challenges such as nonspecificity, shorter half-life, clearance of drugs, and dose-limiting toxicity. Localized delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs through noninvasive spatiotemporally controllable stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems could overcome these drawbacks while utilizing drugs approved for cancer treatment. In this regard, we developed photoelectro active nanocomposite silk-based drug delivery systems (DDS) exhibiting on-demand drug release in vivo. A functionally modified single-walled carbon nanotube loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) was embedded within a cross-linker free silk hydrogel. The resultant nanocomposite silk hydrogel showed electrical field responsiveness and near-infrared (NIR) laser-induced hyperthermal effect. The remote application of these stimuli in tandem or independent manner led to the increased thermal and electrical conductivity of nanocomposite hydrogel, which effectively triggered the intermittent on-demand drug release. In a proof-of-concept in vivo tumor regression study, the nanocomposite hydrogel was administered in a minimally invasive way at the periphery of the tumor by covering most of it. During the 21-day study, drastic tumor regression was recorded upon regular stimulation of nanocomposite hydrogel with simultaneous or individual external application of an electric field and NIR laser. Tumor cell death marker expression analysis uncovered the induction of apoptosis in tumor cells leading to its shrinkage. Heart ultrasound and histology revealed no cardiotoxicity associated with localized DOX treatment. To our knowledge, this is also the first report to show the simultaneous application of electric field and NIR laser in vivo for localized tumor therapy, and our results suggested that such strategy might have high clinical translational potential.

Abstract
A novel self-assembling peptide-functionalized core-shell mesoporous silica nanoparticle was developed as a drug carrier. Superparamagnetic manganese- and cobalt-doped iron oxide nanoparticles formed the core for the mesoporous silica shell coating. On the silica outer shell, the peptide Boc-Phe-Phe-Gly-Gly-COOH was covalently conjugated by 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride and N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide sodium salt coupling. The self-assembling property of the peptide at physiological temperature was utilized to block the pore openings, while the disassembly at elevated local particle temperature released cargo molecules without bulk heating that would cause cell damage. Both conventional heating and heating in an alternating magnetic field were tested for the release of fluorescein and daunorubicin. In vitro experiments showed high cytotoxicity on pancreatic carcinoma cells (PANC-1) when this delivery system was activated by an alternating magnetic field, while control particles without drugs showed no obvious cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Stimulated drug releases in response to human movements are highly appealing in medical therapy and various daily uses. However, the design of a mechanically responsive substrate that presents high delivery capacities and can also preserve the activities of sensitive molecules such as enzymes is still challenging. Taking advantage of the recent development in effective piezoelectric flexible films and in molecular delivery devices, we propose a composite delivery substrate that preserves enzyme activities and enhances molecular delivery in response to human movements such as finger presses or massages. The substrate is achieved by combining two parts, which are the energy converting unit and the molecular loading and releasing unit. The energy converting unit is a piezoelectric-dielectric flexible composite film that produces enhanced electricity and preserves the electricity longer compared to a pure piezoelectric polymer. The molecular delivery unit is a layer-by-layer multilayer containing mesoporous silica particles that are assembled at pH 9 but used in neutral solutions. The releases of molecules including small molecules, peptides, and proteins are all accelerated in response to finger presses irrespective of the signs or densities of their charges. More importantly, the enzyme CAT preserves its activity after release from the composite substrates, meaning that the CAT-loaded (PAH/MS)n(PAH/DAS)n@rGO-TFB/PVDF-HFP composite substrate holds promise as a self-powered soothing pad that effectively removes residue H2O2.

Abstract
Mesoporous materials are ideal carriers for guest molecules and they have been widely used in analytical science. The unique mesoporous structure provides special properties including large specific surface area, tunable pore size, and excellent pore connectivity. The structural properties of mesoporous materials have been largely made use of to improve the performance of analytical methods. For instance, the large specific surface area of mesoporous materials can provide abundant active sites and increase the probability of contact between analytes and active sites to produce stronger signals, thus leading to the improvement of detection sensitivity. The connections between analytical performances and the structural properties of mesoporous materials have not been discussed previously. Understanding the "structure-performance relationship" is highly important for the development of analytical methods with excellent performance based on mesoporous materials. In this review, we discuss the structural properties of mesoporous materials that can be optimized to improve the analytical performance. The discussion is divided into five sections according to the analytical performances: (i) selectivity-related structural properties, (ii) sensitivity-related structural properties, (iii) response time-related structural properties, (iv) stability-related structural properties, and (v) recovery time-related structural properties.

Abstract
In a model study to investigate the consequence of reactions of intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of proteins in the context of the formation of highly ordered structures, we found that enzymatic reactions control the secondary structures of peptides during assembly. Specifically, phosphorylation of an α-helix-dominant peptide results in mostly disordered conformations, which become β-strand-dominant after enzymatic dephosphorylation to regenerate the peptide. In the presence of another peptide largely with a β-strand conformation, direct coassembly of the peptides results in amorphous aggregates consisting of α-helix and β-strand peptides, but the enzymatically generated peptide coassemblies (from the phosphopeptide) mainly adopt a β-strand conformation and form ordered structures (e.g., nanofibers). These results indicate that enzymatic dephosphorylation instructs conformationally flexible peptides to adopt thermodynamically favorable conformations in homotypic or heterotypic supramolecular assemblies.

Abstract
Although conventional chemotherapy has been successful to some extent, the main drawbacks of chemotherapy are its poor bioavailability, high-dose requirements, adverse side effects, low therapeutic indices, development of multiple drug resistance, and non-specific targeting. The main aim in the development of drug delivery vehicles is to successfully address these delivery-related problems and carry drugs to the desired sites of therapeutic action while reducing adverse side effects. In this review, we will discuss the different types of materials used as delivery vehicles for chemotherapeutic agents and their structural characteristics that improve the therapeutic efficacy of their drugs and will describe recent scientific advances in the area of chemotherapy, emphasizing challenges in cancer treatments. Improving the delivery of cancer therapies to tumor sites is crucial to reduce unwanted side effects and patient mortality rates. Pralay Maiti and colleagues at the Indian Institute of Technology in Varanasi, India, review the latest developments in drug delivery vehicles and treatment approaches designed to enhance the effectiveness of current cancer therapies. New nanoparticle-based carriers, hydrogels and hybrid materials that offer controlled and sustained drug release are showing great promise in animal models. Furthermore, materials that respond to stimuli such as heat, light, magnetic or electric fields are also being tested to aid target-specific drug delivery and, thus, avoid damage to healthy tissues. Although there are some challenges in translating these findings to the clinic, there is no doubt that technological advances are shaping better and safer treatment options.

Abstract
Predetermining the physico-chemical properties, biosafety, and stimuli-responsiveness of nanomaterials in biological environments is essential for safe and effective biomedical applications. At the forefront of biomedical research, mesoporous silica nanoparticles and mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles are increasingly investigated to predict their biological outcome by materials design. In this review, it is first chronicled that how the nanomaterial design of pure silica, partially hybridized organosilica, and fully hybridized organosilica (periodic mesoporous organosilicas) governs not only the physico-chemical properties but also the biosafety of the nanoparticles. The impact of the hybridization on the biocompatibility, protein corona, biodistribution, biodegradability, and clearance of the silica-based particles is described. Then, the influence of the surface engineering, the framework hybridization, as well as the morphology of the particles, on the ability to load and controllably deliver drugs under internal biological stimuli (e.g., pH, redox, enzymes) and external noninvasive stimuli (e.g., light, magnetic, ultrasound) are presented. To conclude, trends in the biomedical applications of silica and organosilica nanovectors are delineated, such as unconventional bioimaging techniques, large cargo delivery, combination therapy, gaseous molecule delivery, antimicrobial protection, and Alzheimer's disease therapy.

Abstract
Utilizing stimuli-responsive conformational transformation of a cyclic peptide as a gatekeeper for mesoporous nanocarriers has several advantages such as facile introduction of targeting capabilities, low enzymatic degradation during blood circulation and enhanced specific binding to selected cells. In this report, a Asn-Gly-Arg (NGR)-containing dual-functional cyclic peptide gatekeeper on the surface of mesoporous nanocarrier is prepared not only for active targeting of the aminopeptidase N (APN) expressed on cancer cells but also stimuli-responsive intracellular drug release triggered by a glutathione (GSH)-induced conformational transformation of the peptide gatekeeper. The peptide gatekeeper on the surface of nanocarriers exhibits on-off gatekeeping by conformational transformation triggered by intracellular glutathione of the cancer cells. H1299 cells (high APN expression) showed greater uptake of the nanocarrier by endocytosis and higher apoptosis than A549 cells (low APN expression).

Abstract
Mucin 1 (MUC1) is a cell surface protein overexpressed in breast cancer. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) loaded with safranin O, functionalized with aminopropyl groups and gated with the negatively charged MUC1 aptamer have been prepared (S1-apMUC1) for specific targeting and cargo release in tumoral versus non-tumoral cells. Confocal microscopy studies showed that the S1-apMUC1 nanoparticles were internalized in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells that overexpress MUC1 receptor with subsequent pore opening and cargo release. Interestingly, the MCF-10-A non-tumorigenic breast epithelial cell line that do not overexpress MUC1, showed reduced (S1-apMUC1) internalization. Negligible internalization was also found for S1-ap nanoparticles that contained a scrambled DNA sequence as gatekeeper. S2-apMUC1 nanoparticles (similar to S1-apMUC1 but loaded with doxorubicin) internalized in MDA-MB-231 cells and induced a remarkable reduction in cell viability. Moreover, S1-apMUC1 nanoparticles radio-labeled with 99mTc (S1-apMUC1-Tc) showed a remarkable tumor targeting in in vivo studies with MDA-MB-231 tumor-bearing Balb/c mice.

Abstract
Tissue hypoxia developed in most malignant tumors makes a significant difference to normal tissues in the reduction potential and the activity of various bioreductive enzymes. Given the superior enzymatic activity of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1, a cytosolic reductase up-regulated in many human cancers) in hypoxia relative to that in normoxia, NQO1 has great potential for targeting hypoxic tumor cells. In the present report, the core concept of hypoxic NQO1-responsive mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) is based on the reasoning that the superior enzymatic activity of NQO1 within hypoxic cancer cells can be utilized as a key stimulus for the selective cleavage of an azobenzene stalk triggering the on-off gatekeeping for controlled release of guest drugs. We corroborate that the NQO1 specifically triggers to release the entrapped drug in the nanochannel of MSNs by reductive cleavage of the azobenzene linker only under hypoxic conditions in a controlled manner not only in vitro but also in vivo. Therefore, our results indicate that Si-Azo-CD-PEG could be utilized as a hypoxic cancer-targeting drug delivery carrier, and further suggest that the azobenzene linker could generally be useful for the construction of hypoxic NQO1-responsive nanomaterials.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are highly attractive as supports in the design of controlled delivery systems that can act as containers for the encapsulation of therapeutic agents, overcoming common issues such as poor water solubility and poor stability of some drugs and also enhancing their bioavailability. In this context, we describe herein the development of polyglutamic acid (PGA)-capped MSNs that can selectively deliver rhodamine B and doxorubicin. PGA-capped MSNs remain closed in an aqueous environment, yet they are able to deliver the cargo in the presence of pronase because of the hydrolysis of the peptide bonds in PGA. The prepared solids released less than 20% of the cargo in 1 day in water, whereas they were able to reach 90% of the maximum release of the entrapped guest in ca. 5 h in the presence of pronase. Studies of the PGA-capped nanoparticles with SK-BR-3 breast cancer cells were also undertaken. Rhodamine-loaded nanoparticles were not toxic, whereas doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles were able to efficiently kill more than 90% of the cancer cells at a concentration of 100 μg/mL.

Abstract
During the last decade, using versatile, promising, and fascinating mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as site-specific and stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems (DDSs) has received concentrated research interest. As one of the most attractive surface modification units, peptides have inherent bioactivity, biodegradability and biocompatibility. Recent progresses in the utilization of versatile peptides for surface functionalization of MSNs to achieve cell-specific targeting, fluorescence imaging, and intracellular diagnosis and treatment of tumors are summarized in this review. The various functional peptides decorated on the MSNs are introduced and classified into three types, including targeting peptides, stimuli-responsive peptides and multifunctional chimeric peptides. The limitations and challenges of peptide modified MSNs and their potential applications are further discussed.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanocontainers (MSNs) with biologically responsive gatekeepers have great potential for effective delivery of cargo molecules to the desired sites. For that purpose, peptides could be effective candidates as gatekeepers because of their bioresponsiveness and targeting capability. Taking advantage of the zinc finger domain peptide (CXXC), we designed a biocompatible all-peptide gatekeeper (WCGKC) with on-off gatekeeping capability through stimulus-responsive conformational conversion and the steric bulkiness of the tryptophan unit. The turn structure induced by an intramolecular disulfide bond of the peptide gatekeeper (WCGKC-SS) completely inhibited the release of the entrapped doxorubicin (DOX). However, upon reduction of the disulfide bond by glutathione (GSH), the peptide conformation was converted to a random structure, which opened the orifice of the mesopore leading to the release of DOX. The amine moiety of the lysine of the peptide gatekeeper was PEGylated to enhance dispersion stability and biocompatibility of the nanocontainer. Furthermore, the MSNs with the peptide gatekeeper (PEG-WCGKC-SS-Si) selectively released the entrapped DOX in A549 human lung cancer cells in a controlled manner triggered by intracellular GSH, but not in CCD normal lung cells containing a low intracellular GSH level. In A549 cells, DOX-loaded PEG-WCGKC-SS-Si exhibited about 10-times higher cytotoxicity induced by apoptosis than that in CCD cells.

Abstract
In this paper, we report on an intelligent mesoporous silica-based multifunctional theranostic nanoplatform (designated as MMTNP) for tumor imaging as well as controlled drug release. This theranostic nanoplatform consists of MCM-41 typical mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as a hydrophobic drug carrier, matrix metalloprotease-2 (MMP-2) activated fluorescence imaging peptides on the surface of MSNs served as diagnostic probes as well as enzyme-responsive nanovalves blocking the pores, and cRGD peptides further functionalized on the surface of MSNs for tumor targeting. In the absence of MMP-2 conditions, the proximity between the fluorescent dye 5(6)-carboxytetramethylrhodamine hydrochloride (TAMRA) and the quencher 4,4-dimethylamino-azobenzene-4'-carboxylic acid (Dabcyl) on the surface of MSNs resulted in no fluorescence. When the drug loaded nanoplatform arrived at tumor tissue with overexpressed MMP-2, the fluorescence of TAMRA became recovered efficiently due to the hydrolysis of the MMP-2 sensitive peptide substrate, realizing tumor imaging and triggering drug release. In addition, the further introduced cRGD peptide significantly enhanced the targeting efficiency through receptor-mediated endocytosis in tumor cells.

Abstract
Photothermal-chemotherapy (PT-CT) is a promising strategy for cancer treatment, but its development is hindered by the issues regarding to the long-term safety of carriers and imperfect drug release profiles. In this article, we use polyethylene glycol-modified polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA-PEG) as an outstanding PT-CT agent for cancer treatment. PDA-PEG possesses excellent biocompatibility and photothermal effect, and could easily load anticancer drugs such as doxorubicin (DOX) and 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38) via π-π stacking and/or hydrogen binding. Moreover, the drug-loaded PDA-PEG showed great stability and drug-retaining capability in physiological condition, and could respond to multiple stimuli including near infrared light, pH and reactive oxygen species to trigger the release of loaded anticancer drugs. The in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that PDA-PEG-mediated PT-CT showed synergetic effect for cancer therapy.

Abstract
A novel type of pH-responsive multifunctional mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) was developed for cancerous cells drug delivery and synergistic therapy of tumor. MSNs were covered with a kind of cell-penetrating peptide, deca-lysine sequence (K10), to enhance their escape from the endosomes. After K10's primary amines were reacted with citraconic anhydride to form acid-labile β-carboxylic amides, zinc oxide (ZnO) quantum dots (QDs) were introduced to cap MSNs via electrostatic interaction. The obtained ZnO@MSN drug-delivery system (DDS) achieves "zero-premature" drug release under a physiological environment. However, once the DDS is transferred to the cancerous cells' acidic endosome, ZnO QDs would rapidly dissolve and the acid-labile amides on the side chain of K10 would hydrolyze to regenerate primary amines, resulting in the uncapping of MSNs and exposure of the cell-penetrating peptide K10. The regenerated K10 could help the DDS escape from the endosome and efficiently release the loaded drugs inside the cells. At the meantime, because of the cytotoxicity of ZnO QDs at their destination, the ZnO@MSN DDS may achieve a synergistic antitumor effect to improve the therapeutic index.
