Abstract
The importance of molecular docking in drug discovery lies in the precise recognition between potential drug compounds and their target receptors, which is generally based on the computational method. However, it will become quite interesting if the rigid cavity structure of supramolecular macrocycles can precisely recognize a series of guests with specific fragments by mimicking molecular docking through co-crystallization experiments. Herein, we report a phenylphosphine oxide-bridged aromatic supramolecular macrocycle, F[3]A1-[P(O)Ph]3, which precisely recognizes benzonitrile derivatives through non-covalent interactions to form key-lock complexes by co-crystallization method. A total of 15 various benzonitrile derivatives as guest molecules are specifically bound by F[3]A1-[P(O)Ph]3 in co-crystal structures, respectively. Notably, among them, crisaborole (anti-dermatitis) and alectinib (anti-cancer) with the benzonitrile fragment, which are two commercial drug molecules approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), could also form a key-lock complex with F[3]A1-[P(O)Ph]3 in the crystal state, respectively.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the serious threats to public life and health. Early diagnosis, real-time monitoring, and individualized treatment are the keys to improve the survival rate and prolong the survival time of cancer patients. Liquid biopsy is a potential technique for cancer early diagnosis due to its non-invasive and continuous monitoring properties. However, most current liquid biopsy techniques lack the ability to detect cancers at the early stage. Therefore, effective detection of a variety of cancers is expected through the combination of various techniques. Recently, DNA frameworks with tailorable functionality and precise addressability have attracted wide spread attention in biomedical applications, especially in detecting cancer biomarkers such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), exosomes and circulating tumor nucleic acid (ctNA). Encouragingly, DNA frameworks perform outstanding in detecting these cancer markers, but also face some challenges and opportunities. In this review, we first briefly introduced the development of DNA frameworks and its typical structural characteristics and advantages. Then, we mainly focus on the recent progress of DNA frameworks in detecting commonly used cancer markers in liquid-biopsy. We summarize the advantages and applications of DNA frameworks for detecting CTCs, exosomes and ctNA. Furthermore, we provide an outlook on the possible opportunities and challenges for exploiting the structural advantages of DNA frameworks in the field of cancer diagnosis. Finally, we envision the marriage of DNA frameworks with other emerging materials and technologies to develop the next generation of disease diagnostic biosensors.

Abstract
Multivalent receptor-ligand interactions (RLIs) exhibit excellent affinity for binding when targeting cell membrane receptors with low expression. However, existing strategies only allow for limited control of the valency and spacing of ligands for a certain receptor, lacking recognition patterns for multiple interested receptors with complex spatial distributions. Here, we developed flexible DNA nanoclaws with multivalent aptamers to achieve powerful cell recognition by controlling the spacing of aptamers to match the spatial patterns of receptors. The DNA nanoclaw with spacing-controllable binding sites was constructed via hybrid chain reaction (HCR), enabling dual targeting of HER2 and EpCAM molecules. The results demonstrate that the binding affinity of multivalent DNA nanoclaws to tumor cells is enhanced. We speculate that the flexible structure may conform better to irregularly shaped membrane surfaces, increasing the probability of intermolecular contact. The capture efficiency of circulating tumor cells successfully verified the high affinity and selectivity of this spatial pattern. This strategy will further promote the potential application of DNA frameworks in future disease diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
The classical complement pathway is activated by antigen-bound IgG antibodies. Monomeric IgG must oligomerize to activate complement via the hexameric C1q complex, and hexamerizing mutants of IgG appear as promising therapeutic candidates. However, structural data have shown that it is not necessary to bind all six C1q arms to initiate complement, revealing a symmetry mismatch between C1 and the hexameric IgG complex that has not been adequately explained. Here, we use DNA nanotechnology to produce specific nanostructures to template antigens and thereby spatially control IgG valency. These DNA-nanotemplated IgG complexes can activate complement on cell-mimetic lipid membranes, which enabled us to determine the effect of IgG valency on complement activation without the requirement to mutate antibodies. We investigated this using biophysical assays together with 3D cryo-electron tomography. Our data revealed the importance of interantigen distance on antibody-mediated complement activation, and that the cleavage of complement component C4 by the C1 complex is proportional to the number of ideally spaced antigens. Increased IgG valency also translated to better terminal pathway activation and membrane attack complex formation. Together, these data provide insights into how nanopatterning antigen-antibody complexes influence the activation of the C1 complex and suggest routes to modulate complement activation by antibody engineering. Furthermore, to our knowledge, this is the first time DNA nanotechnology has been used to study the activation of the complement system.

Abstract
Identification and characterization of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from blood samples of patients with cancer can help monitor parameters such as disease stage, disease progression and therapeutic efficiency. However, the sensitivity and specificity of current multivalent approaches used for CTC capture is limited by the lack of control over the ligands' position. In this Protocol Update, we describe DNA-tetrahedral frameworks anchored with aptamers that can be configured with user-defined spatial arrangements and stoichiometries. The modified tetrahedral DNA frameworks, termed 'n-simplexes', can be used as probes to specifically target receptor-ligand interactions on the cell membrane. Here, we describe the synthesis and use of n-simplexes that target the epithelial cell adhesion molecule expressed on the surface of CTCs. The characterization of the n-simplexes includes measuring the binding affinity to the membrane receptors as a result of the spatial arrangement and stoichiometry of the aptamers. We further detail the capture of CTCs from patient blood samples. The procedure for the preparation and characterization of n-simplexes requires 11.5 h, CTC capture from clinical samples and data processing requires ~5 h per six samples and the downstream analysis of captured cells typically requires 5.5 h. The protocol is suitable for users with basic expertise in molecular biology and handling of clinical samples.

Abstract
Precise mapping and regulation of cell surface receptors hold immense significance in disease treatment, such as cancer, infection, and neurodisorders, but also face enormous challenges. In this study, we designed a series of adjustable multivalent aptamer-based DNA nanostructures to precisely control their interaction with receptors in tumor cells. By profiling surface receptors on 12 cell lines using 10 different aptamers, we generated a heatmap that accurately distinguished between various tumor types based on multiple markers. We then incorporated these aptamers onto DNA origami structures to regulate receptor recognition, with patch-like structures demonstrating a tendency to be trapped on the cell surface and with tube-like structures showing a preference for internalization. Through precise control of aptamer species, valence, and geometric patterns, we found that multiheteroreceptor-mediated recognition not only favored the specific binding of nanostructures to tumor cells but also greatly enhanced intracellular uptake by promoting clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Specifically, we achieved over 5-fold uptake in different tumor cells versus normal cells using tube-like structures modified with different diheteroaptamer pairs, facilitating targeted drug delivery. Moreover, patch-like structures with triheteroaptamers guided specific interactions between macrophages and tumor cells, leading to effective immune clearance. This programmable multivalent system allows for the precise regulation of cell recognition using multiple parameters, demonstrating great potential for personalized tumor treatment.

Abstract
While engineered DNA nanoframeworks have been extensively exploited for delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic regents, DNA tiling-based DNA frameworks amenable to applications in living systems lag much behind. In this contribution, by developing a Y-shaped backbone-based DNA tiling technique, we assemble Y-shaped backbone-rigidified supersized DNA tetrahedrons (RDT) with 100% efficiency for precisely targeted tumor therapy. RDT displays unparalleled rigidness and unmatched resistance to nuclease degradation so that it almost does not deform under the force exerted by the atomic force microscopy tip, and the residual amount is not less than 90% upon incubating in biological media for 24 h, displaying at least 11.6 times enhanced degradation resistance. Without any targeting ligand, RDT enters the cancer cell in a targeted manner, and internalization specificity is up to 15.8. Moreover, 77% of RDT objects remain intact within living cells for 14 h. The drug loading content of RDT is improved by 4-8 times, and RDT almost 100% eliminates the unintended drug leakage in a stimulated physiological medium. Once systemically administrated into HeLa tumor-bearing mouse models, doxorubicin-loaded RDTs preferentially accumulate in tumor sites and efficiently suppress tumor growth without detectable off-target toxicity. The Y-DNA tiling technique offers invaluable insights into the development of structural DNA nanotechnology for precise medicine.

Hierarchical Fluid Interface Enables Spatiotemporal Regulation of Ligand Distribution to Increase Kinetics and Thermodynamics of Interfacial Binding Reaction. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202312581.

Abstract
In nature, regulation of the spatiotemporal distribution of interfacial receptors and ligands leads to optimum binding kinetics and thermodynamics of receptor-ligand binding reactions within interfaces. Inspired by this, we report a hierarchical fluid interface (HieFluidFace) to regulate the spatiotemporal distribution of interfacial ligands to increase the rate and thermodynamic favorability of interfacial binding reactions. Each aptamer-functionalized gold nanoparticle, termed spherical aptamer (SAPT), is anchored on a supported lipid bilayer without fluidity, like an "island", and is surrounded by many fluorescent aptamers (FAPTs) with free fluidity, like "rafts". Such ligand "island-rafts" model provides a large reactive cross-section for rapid binding to cellular receptors. The synergistic multivalency of SAPTs and FAPTs improves interfacial affinity for tight capture. Moreover, FAPTs accumulate at binding sites to bind to cellular receptors with clustered fluorescence to "lighten" cells for direct identification. Thus, HieFluidFace in a microfluidic chip achieves high-performance capture and identification of circulating tumor cells from clinical samples, providing a new paradigm to optimize the kinetics and thermodynamics of interfacial binding reactions.
