Abstract
Emerging research suggests that mitochondrial DNA is a potential target for cancer treatment. However, achieving precise delivery of deoxyribozymes (DNAzymes) and combining photodynamic therapy (PDT) and DNAzyme-based gene silencing together for enhancing mitochondrial gene-photodynamic synergistic therapy remains challenging. Accordingly, herein, intelligent supramolecular nanomicelles are constructed by encapsulating a DNAzyme into a photodynamic O2 economizer for mitochondrial NO gas-enhanced synergistic gene-photodynamic therapy. The designed nanomicelles demonstrate sensitive acid- and red-light sequence-activated behaviors. After entering the cancer cells and targeting the mitochondria, these micelles will disintegrate and release the DNAzyme and Mn (II) porphyrin in the tumor microenvironment. Mn (II) porphyrin acts as a DNAzyme cofactor to activate the DNAzyme for the cleavage reaction. Subsequently, the NO-carrying donor is decomposed under red light irradiation to generate NO that inhibits cellular respiration, facilitating the conversion of more O2 into singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) in the tumor cells, thereby significantly enhancing the efficacy of PDT. In vitro and in vivo experiments reveal that the proposed system can efficiently target mitochondria and exhibits considerable antitumor effects with negligible systemic toxicity. Thus, this study provides a useful conditional platform for the precise delivery of DNAzymes and a novel strategy for activatable NO gas-enhanced mitochondrial gene-photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) not only plays a vital role in a series of physiological processes but also has great potential for therapeutic applications. One of the existing challenges in using NO as a gas therapeutic is the inconvenience of gaseous NO storage, and thus, it is of importance to develop NO-releasing vehicle platforms. Although a variety of polymer-based NO-releasing nanoparticles have been constructed, a majority of the systems are limited to spherical morphologies. Here we present the preparation of biodegradable NO-releasing amphiphilic block copolymers containing poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(trimethylene carbonate-4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)) (PTMC-NF), which can self-assemble into tubular polymersomes. The tubular polymersomes with high aspect ratio structures showed much faster NO-releasing behavior, in contrast to their spherical counterparts under light irradiation. We found that the amount of NO released from tubular polymersomes is 1.5 times that from spherical polymersomes. More importantly, the tubular polymersomes have an enhanced anticancer performance compared to spherical polymersomes, demonstrating that the morphology of the NO-releasing polymersomes has a significant effect on their anticancer ability. In view of the benefits of NO-releasing tubular polymersomes, we expect that they can be used as an efficient NO delivery system for enhanced gas therapy.

Abstract
N-Nitrosamines are well established motifs to release nitric oxide (NO) under photoirradiation. Herein, a series of amphiphilic N-nitrosamine-based block copolymers (BCPx-NO) are developed to attain controlled NO release under photoirradiation (365 nm, 3.71 mW/cm2). The water-soluble BCPx-NO forms micellar architecture in aqueous medium and exhibits a sustained NO release of 92-160 μM within 11.5 h, which is 36.8-64.0% of the calculated value. To understand the NO release mechanism, a small molecular NO donor (NOD) resembling the NO releasing functional motif of BCPx-NO is synthesized, which displays a burst NO release in DMSO within 2.5 h. The radical nature of the released NO is confirmed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The gradual NO release from micellar BCPx-NO enhances antibacterial activity over NOD and exhibits a superior bactericidal effect on Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus. In relation to biomedical applications, this work offers a comprehensive insight into tuning light-triggered NO release to improve antibacterial activity.

Abstract
Through a dynamic polymerization and self-sorting process, a range of lowellane macrocycles have been efficiently generated in nitroaldol systems composed of aromatic dialdehydes and aliphatic or aromatic dinitroalkanes. All identified macrocycles show a composition of two repeating units, resulting in tetra-β-nitroalcohols of different structures. The effects of the building block structure on the macrocyclization process have been demonstrated, and the influence from the solvent has been explored. In general, the formation of the lowellanes was amplified in response to phase-change effects, although solution-phase structures were, in some cases, favored.

Abstract
Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNT) are structures that fluoresce in the near-infrared region. By coating SWCNT surfaces with polymeric materials such as single-chain DNA, changes in fluorescence emission occur in the presence of reagents. In this way, polymer-coated SWCNT structures allow them to be used as optical sensors for single molecule detection. Especially today, the inadequacy of the methods used in the detection of cellular molecules makes the early diagnosis of diseases such as cancer difficult at the single-molecule level. In this study, the detection of nitric oxide (NO) signals, which are a marker of cancer, was carried out at the single-molecule level. In this context, a sensor structure was formed by coating the 7,6-chiral s-SWCNT surface with ssDNA with different oligonucleotide lengths (AT). The sensor structure was characterized by using UV-vis spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy microscopy. After formation of the sensor structure, a selectivity library was created using various molecules. As a result of the coating of the SWCNT (7,6) surface with DNA corona phase formation, Raman peaks at 195 and 276 cm-1 were observed to shift to the right. Additionally, the selectivity library results showed that the (AT)30 sequence can be used in NO detection. As a result of the studies using SWCNT (7.6)- (AT)30, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of determination (LOQ) values of the sensor against NO were found to be 1.24 and 4.13 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Compared to planktonic bacteria, biofilms are notoriously difficult to eradicate due to their inherent protection against the immune response and antimicrobial agents. Inducing biofilm dispersal to improve susceptibility to antibiotics is an attractive therapeutic avenue for eradicating biofilms. Nitric oxide (NO), an endogenous antibacterial agent, has previously been shown to induce biofilm dispersal, but with limited understanding of the effects of NO-release properties. Herein, the antibiofilm effects of five promising NO-releasing biopolymer candidates were studied by assessing dispersal, changes in biofilm viscoelasticity, and increased sensitization to tobramycin after treatment with NO. A threshold level of NO was needed to achieve biofilm dispersal, with longer-releasing systems requiring lower concentrations. The most positively charged NO-release systems (from the presence of primary amines) led to the greatest reduction in viscoelasticity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms. Co-treatment of tobramycin with the NO-releasing biopolymer greatly decreased the dose of tobramycin required to eradicate tobramycin-susceptible and -resistant biofilms in both cellular and tissue models.

Abstract
The role of nitric oxide (NO) as an "unconventional" therapeutic and the strict dependence of biological effects on its concentration require the generation of NO with precise spatiotemporal control. The development of precursors and strategies to activate NO release by excitation in the so-called "therapeutic window" with highly biocompatible and tissue-penetrating red light is desirable and challenging. Herein, we demonstrate that one-photon red-light excitation of Verteporfin, a clinically approved photosensitizer (PS) for photodynamic therapy, activates NO release, in a catalytic fashion, from an otherwise blue-light activatable NO photodonor (NOPD) with an improvement of about 300 nm toward longer and more biocompatible wavelengths. Steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopic and photochemical studies combined with theoretical calculations account for an NO photorelease photosensitized by the lowest triplet state of the PS. In view of biological applications, the water-insoluble PS and NOPD have been co-entrapped within water-dispersible, biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) of mPEG-b-PCL (about 84 nm in diameter), where the red-light activation of NO release takes place even more effectively than in an organic solvent solution and almost independently by the presence of oxygen. Moreover, the ideal spectroscopic prerequisites and the restricted environment of the NPs permit the green-fluorescent co-product formed concomitantly to NO photorelease to communicate with the PS via Förster resonance energy transfer. This leads to an enhancement of the typical red emission of the PS offering the possibility of a double color optical reporter useful for the real-time monitoring of the NO release through fluorescence techniques. The suitability of this strategy applied to the polymeric NPs as potential nanotherapeutics was evaluated through biological tests performed by using HepG2 hepatocarcinoma and A375 melanoma cancer cell lines. Fluorescence investigation in cells and cell viability experiments demonstrates the occurrence of the NO release under one-photon red-light illumination also in the biological environment. This confirms that the adopted strategy provides a valuable tool for generating NO from an already available NOPD, otherwise activatable with the poorly biocompatible blue light, without requiring any chemical modification and the use of sophisticated irradiation sources.

Abstract
Light-controlled therapies offer a promising strategy to prevent and suppress infections caused by numerous bacterial pathogens. Excitation of exogenously supplied photosensitizers (PS) at specific wavelengths elicits levels of reactive oxygen intermediates toxic to bacteria. Porphyrin-based supramolecular nanostructure frameworks (SNF) are effective PS with unique physicochemical properties that have led to their widespread use in photomedicine. Herein, we developed a nitric oxide (NO) releasing, biocompatible, and stable porphyrin-based SNF (SNF-NO), which was achieved through a confined noncovalent self-assembly process based on π-π stacking. Characterization of the SNFs via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis showed the formation of three-dimensional, well-defined octahedral structures. These SNF-NO were shown to exhibit a red shift due to the noncovalent self-assembly of porphyrins, which also show extended light absorption to broadly cover the entire visible light spectrum to enhance photodynamic therapy (PDT). Under visible light irradiation (46 J cm-2), the SNF generates high yields of singlet oxygen (1O2) radicals, hydroxyl radicals (HO), superoxide radicals (O2), and peroxynitrite (ONOO-) radicals that have shown potential to enhance antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (APDT) against Gram-positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli). The resulting SNFs also exhibit significant biofilm dispersion and a decrease in biomass production. The combination of robust photosensitizer SNFs with nitric oxide-releasing capabilities is dynamic in its ability to target pathogenic infections while remaining nontoxic to mammalian cells. The engineered SNFs have enormous potential for treating and managing microbial infections.

Abstract
A fullerene-polysaccharide supramolecular hydrogel was constructed by carrying out a co-assembly of fullerene@hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, chitosan and bentonite, and displayed good antioxidant and antiglycation properties, and hence showed promising cosmetics applications. Benefitting from the cyclodextrin hydrophobic cavity, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin formed a stoichiometric 2 : 1 complex with fullerene, effectively enhancing the water solubility and biological activity of fullerene, and the encapsulation ratio of the prepared fullerene was calculated to be 79%. Results of oxygen radical absorbance capacity and pyrogallol autoxidation experiments showed high antioxidant activity displayed by the fullerene@HP-β-CD inclusion complex. The supramolecular inclusion was further co-assembled, using multiple hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions, with chitosan and bentonite to form a supramolecular hydrogel; this hydrogel was successfully used in antiglycation, with a glycation end products inhibition rate of 43.99% at a 10% sample concentration. Therefore, the fullerene-polysaccharide ternary co-assembly supramolecular hydrogel showed good antioxidant and antiglycation abilities, and the construction of the polysaccharide supramolecular hydrogel provided a new perspective for raw materials to consider in cosmetics applications.

Abstract
S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) is a nontoxic nitric oxide (NO)-donating compound that occurs naturally in the human body. The use of GSNO to deliver exogenous NO for therapeutic and protective applications is limited by the high lability of dissolved GSNO in aqueous formulations. In this paper, we report a host-guest chemistry-based strategy to modulate the GSNO reactivity and NO release kinetics for the design of anti-infective catheters and hydrogels. Cyclodextrins (CDs) are host molecules that are typically used to encapsulate hydrophobic guest molecules into their hydrophobic cavities. However, we found that CDs form inclusion complexes with GSNO, an extremely hydrophilic molecule with a solubility of over 1 M at physiological pH. More interestingly, the host-guest complexation reduces the decomposition reactivity of GSNO in the order of αCD > γCD > hydroxypropyl βCD. The lifetime of 0.1 M GSNO is increased to up to 15 days in the presence of CDs at 37 °C, which is more than twice the lifetime of free GSNO. Quantum chemistry calculations indicate that GSNO in αCD undergoes a conformational change that significantly reduces the S-NO bond distance and increases its stability. The calculated S-NO bond dissociation enthalpies of free and complexed GSNO well agree with the experimentally observed GSNO decomposition kinetics. The NO release from GSNO-CD solutions, compared to GSNO solutions, has suppressed initial bursts and extended durations, enhancing the safety and efficacy of NO-based therapies and device protections. In an example application as an anti-infective lock solution for intravascular catheters, the GSNO-αCD solution exhibits potent antibacterial activities for both planktonic and biofilm bacteria, both intraluminal and extraluminal environments, both prevention and treatment of infections, and against multiple bacterial strains, including a multidrug-resistant strain. In addition to solutions, the inclusion complexation also enables the preparation of GSNO hydrogels with enhanced stability and improved antibacterial efficacy. Since methods to suppress and control the GSNO decomposition rate are rare, this supramolecular strategy provides new opportunities for the formulation and application of this natural NO donor.

Abstract
In situ reactivation of hydrogels remains a long-standing key challenge in chemistry and materials science. Herein, we first report an ultraconvenient in situ renewable antibacterial hydrogel prepared via a facile physical contact-triggered strategy based on an ultrafast chlorine transfer pathway. We discover that the as-proposed hydrogel with a programmable 3D network cross-linked by noncovalent bonds and physical interactions can serve as a smart platform for selective active chlorine transfer at the hydrogel/hydrogel interface. Systematic experiments and density functional theory prove that the N-halamine glycopolymers integrated into the hydrogel system work as a specific renewable biocide, permitting the final hydrogel to be recharged in situ within 1 min under ambient conditions. Due to its strength and durability, pathogen specificity, and biocompatibility, coupled with its rapid in situ reactivation, this antibacterial hydrogel holds great potential for in vivo biomedical use and circulating water disinfection. We envision this proposed strategy will pave a new avenue for the development of in situ renewable smart hydrogels for real-world applications.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins have been widely employed for drug delivery systems (DDSs) in which drugs are selectively delivered to a target site in the body. Recent interest has been focused on the construction of cyclodextrin-based nanoarchitectures that show sophisticated DDS functions. These nanoarchitectures are precisely fabricated based on three important features of cyclodextrins, namely (1) the preorganized three-dimensional molecular structure of nanometer size, (2) the easy chemical modification to introduce functional groups, and (3) the formation of dynamic inclusion complexes with various guests in water. With the use of photoirradiation, drugs are released from cyclodextrin-based nanoarchitectures at designated timing. Alternatively, therapeutic nucleic acids are stably protected in the nanoarchitectures and delivered to the target site. The efficient delivery of the CRISPR-Cas9 system for gene editing was also successful. Even more complicated nanoarchitectures can be designed for sophisticated DDSs. Cyclodextrin-based nanoarchitectures are highly promising for future applications in medicine, pharmaceutics, and other relevant fields.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Magnetocontrollable droplet mobility on surfaces of both solids and simple fluids have been widely used in a wide range of applications. However, little is understood about the effect of the magnetic field on the wettability and mobility of droplets on structured fluids. Here, we report the manipulation of the dynamic behaviors of water droplets on a film of thermotropic liquid crystals (LCs). We find that the static wetting behavior and static friction of water droplets on a 4'-octyl-4-biphenylcarbonitrile (8CB) film strongly depend on the LC mesophases, and that a magnetic field caused no measurable change to these properties. However, we find that the droplet dynamics can be affected by a magnetic field as it slides on a nematic 8CB film, but not on isotropic 8CB, and is dependent on both the direction and strength of the magnetic field. By measuring the dynamic friction of a droplet sliding on a nematic 8CB film, we find that a magnetic field alters the internal orientational ordering of the 8CB which in turn affects its viscosity. We support this interpretation with a scaling argument using the LC magnetic coherence length that includes (i) the elastic energy from the long-range orientational ordering of 8CB and (ii) the free energy from the interaction between 8CB and a magnetic field. Overall, these results advance our understanding of droplet mobility on LC films and enable new designs for responsive surfaces that can manipulate the mobility of water droplets.

Abstract
The development of near-infrared (NIR) J-aggregates has received increasing attention due to their broad applications. Here, we report the nitrosation of an amine-containing aza-BODIPY precursor (BDP-NH2 ), affording the first nitric oxide (NO)-releasing NIR J-aggregate (BDP-NO). The introduction of N-nitrosamine moieties efficiently inhibits the aromatic interactions of BDP-NH2 , which instead promotes the formation of J-aggregates within micellar nanoparticles with a remarkable bathochromic shift of ≈109 nm to the NIR window (820 nm). Interestingly, the NO release and photothermal conversion efficiency (PTCE) can be delicately tuned by the loading contents of BDP-NO within micellar nanoparticles, thereby enabling multiple antibacterial modalities by exploring either NO release, photothermal therapy (PTT), or both. We demonstrate the combination of NO and PTT can elevate antibacterial activity while attenuating PTT-associated inflammation for the in vivo treatment of MRSA infection.

Abstract
An innovative strategy to control nitrogen oxide emission from flue gas was developed using the wet flue gas denitrification technology. The use of cyclodextrin (CD) as an additive facilitated NO2 absorption by the sulfite absorbent. Compared with absorption by a sulfite solution (59.12%), the instantaneous absorption efficiencies employing CD improved to 94.57%. Moreover, 48 h of continuous absorption indicated cyclic utilization of CD. The favorable role of CD was ascribed to facilitating the limiting step for the entire NO2 absorption-dissolution process which included both water solubility and gas-liquid mass transfer. Furthermore, we propose a potential mechanism of CD/sulfite mixed solution absorbing NO2, among which the favorable role of the additive is related to its amphiphilic behavior toward gas and liquid phases. Additionally, a kinetic model describing the rates of gas-liquid transfer and macro absorption was established based on various operating conditions. This model explains the absorption improvement in the kinetic aspect and provides theoretical guidance for practical applications.

Abstract
Two glycosaminoglycan (GAG) biopolymers, hyaluronic acid (HA) and chondroitin sulfate (CS), were chemically modified via carbodiimide chemistry to facilitate the loading and release of nitric oxide (NO) to develop a multi-action wound healing agent. The resulting NO-releasing GAGs released 0.2-0.9 μmol NO mg-1 GAG into simulated wound fluid with NO-release half-lives ranging from 20 to 110 min. GAGs containing alkylamines with terminal primary amines and displaying intermediate NO-release kinetics exhibited potent, broad spectrum bactericidal action against three strains each of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus ranging in antibiotic resistance profile. NO loading of the GAGs was also found to decrease murine TLR4 activation, suggesting that the therapeutic exhibits anti-inflammatory mechanisms. In vitro adhesion and proliferation assays utilizing human dermal fibroblasts and human epidermal keratinocytes displayed differences as a function of the GAG backbone, alkylamine identity, and NO-release properties. In combination with antibacterial properties, the adhesion and proliferation profiles of the GAG derivatives enabled the selection of the most promising wound healing candidates for subsequent in vivo studies. A P. aeruginosa-infected murine wound model revealed the benefits of CS over HA as a pro-wound healing NO donor scaffold, with benefits of accelerated wound closure and decreased bacterial burden attributable to both active NO release and the biopolymer backbone.

Abstract
In the prevailing covid times, scientific community is busy in developing vaccine against COVID-19. Under such fascination this article describes the possible role of nitric oxide (NO) releasers in aiding the immune system of a human body against this dreadful pandemic disease. Despite some prodrug antiviral compounds are in practice to recover the patients suffering from covid-19, however, co-morbidity deaths are highest among the total deaths happened so far. This concurrence of a number of diseases in a patient along with this viral infection is indicative of the poor immunity. Literature background supports the use of NO as immunity boosting agent and hence, the nitric oxide releasing compounds could act as lucrative in this context. Some dietary suggestions of NO-containing food items have also been introduced in this article. Also, the profound effect of NO in relieving symptomatic severity of covid-19 has been opined in this work.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Multicharged cyclodextrin (CD) supramolecular assemblies, including those based on positively/negatively charged modified mono-6-deoxy-CDs, per-6-deoxy-CDs, and random 2,3,6-deoxy-CDs, as well as parent CDs binding positively/negatively charged guests, have been extensively applied in chemistry, materials science, medicine, biological science, catalysis, and other fields. In this review, we primarily focus on summarizing the recent advances in positively/negatively charged CDs and parent CDs encapsulating positively/negatively charged guests, especially the construction process of supramolecular assemblies and their applications. Compared with uncharged CDs, multicharged CDs display remarkably high antiviral and antibacterial activity as well as efficient protein fibrosis inhibition. Meanwhile, charged CDs can interact with oppositely charged dyes, drugs, polymers, and biomacromolecules to achieve effective encapsulation and aggregation. Consequently, multicharged CD supramolecular assemblies show great advantages in improving drug-delivery efficiency, the luminescence properties of materials, molecular recognition and imaging, and the toughness of supramolecular hydrogels, in addition to enabling the construction of multistimuli-responsive assemblies. These features are anticipated to not only promote the development of CD-based supramolecular chemistry but also contribute to the rapid exploitation of these assemblies in diverse interdisciplinary applications.

Abstract
Inducing autophagy of macrophages to improve abnormal lipid metabolism is an important way to treat atherosclerosis (AS). Yet, the current application of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-dependent autophagy inducers is limited by the side effects and lack of targeting and low biological availability. Herein, a kind of nitric oxide (NO)-driven carrier-free nanomotor based on the reaction between trehalose (Tr, one of the mTOR-independent autophagy inducers), L-arginine (Arg), and phosphatidylserine (PS) is reported. The developed nanomotors use NO as the driving force, which is generated from the reaction between Arg and excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) specifically presenting in the AS microenvironment. The high expression of ROS and iNOS in the AS site can be used as chemoattractants to induce chemotaxis behavior of the nanomotors to achieve the first-step targeting an AS plaque. Subsequently, the "eat me" signal sent by PS is exploited to precisely target to the macrophages in the AS plaque, realizing the plaque-macrophage-targeted effect by this step-by-step strategy. In vitro and in vivo results confirm that the introduction of the concept of carrier-free nanomotors has greatly improved the biological availability of trehalose (the dose can be reduced from 2.5 g kg-1 in previous reports to 0.01 g kg-1 in this work). Particularly, consumed ROS and the production of NO during the targeting process also play positive roles, in which the former regulates the M2 polarization of macrophages and the latter promotes the reconstruction of an endothelial barrier, which contributes to the multilink treatment of AS.

Abstract
Most of the current non-pharmacological treatment strategies for atherosclerosis (AS) suffer from poor penetration into the plaque and only aim at a certain factor in its formation process, resulting in limited therapeutic effect. Herein, a kind of nanomotor with dual-mode propulsion is constructed, which is sensitive to higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) at the AS site and near-infrared (NIR) laser by the covalent binding and self-assembly of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and L-arginine (LA) with immobilization of Au nanoparticles. NIR laser irradiation can be used as a driving force and to ablate inflammatory macrophages through the photothermal effect. The nitric oxide (NO) released by the nanomotors can be used as another driving force and a therapeutic agent to promote endothelial repair in the plaque site. LA can eliminate ROS in the inflammatory site, and β-CD can promote the removal of cholesterol from foam cells. In particular, the two driving modes of nanomotors synergistically promote their aggregation and penetration in the plaque. This kind of nanomotor can regulate the microenvironment of AS in multiple ways, including combination therapy for endothelial repair, lipid clearance, and reducing ROS, which is expected to become a potential non-pharmacological strategy in the treatment of AS.

Abstract
The use of nitric oxide (NO) is emerging as a promising, novel approach for the treatment of antibiotic resistant bacteria and biofilm infections. Depending on the concentration, NO can induce biofilm dispersal, increase bacteria susceptibility to antibiotic treatment, and induce cell damage or cell death via the formation of reactive oxygen or reactive nitrogen species. The use of NO is, however, limited by its reactivity, which can affect NO delivery to its target site and result in off-target effects. To overcome these issues, and enable spatial or temporal control over NO release, various strategies for the design of NO-releasing materials, including the incorporation of photo-activable, charge-switchable, or bacteria-targeting groups, have been developed. Other strategies have focused on increased NO storage and delivery by encapsulation or conjugation of NO donors within a single polymeric framework. This review compiles recent developments in NO drugs and NO-releasing materials designed for applications in antimicrobial or anti-biofilm treatment and discusses limitations and variability in biological responses in response to the use of NO for bacterial eradiation.

Abstract
Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a rather prevalent condition with a chronic inflammatory process, which is hard to cure. Herein, a new antibacterial drug, nitric oxide (NO), was used for the attempt on CRS therapy. To achieve this, a star copolymer (β-CD-PAMAM) consisting of the β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) core and seven PAMAM-G3 arms, which was designed as a low-cytotoxicity and high NO loading carrier, were synthesized and characterizied. The obtained β-CD-PAMAM/NONOate showed the effect in inhibiting and dispersing the biofilm of S. aureus, as well as the effective antibacterial performance, implying the promising application in CRS treatment. The in vivo assay confirmed that β-CD-PAMAM/NONOate displayed excellent therapy effect on CRS and significantly improved the symptoms of the experimental rats, which was no significant different in therapy effect with the clinical Rhinocort. Incorporated with its little toxicity in vitro and in vivo, the β-CD-PAMAM/NONOate was suggested a promising application in CRS therapy.

Abstract
As a gasotransmitter, nitric oxide (NO) regulates physiological pathways and demonstrates therapeutic effects such as vascular relaxation, anti-inflammation, antiplatelet, antithrombosis, antibacterial, and antiviral properties. However, gaseous NO has high reactivity and a short half-life, so NO delivery and storage are critical questions to be solved. One way is to develop stable NO donors and the other way is to enhance the delivery and storage of NO donors from biomaterials. Most of the researchers studying NO delivery and applications are using synthetic polymeric materials, and they have demonstrated significant therapeutic effects of these NO-releasing polymeric materials on cardiovascular diseases, respiratory disease, bacterial infections, etc. However, some researchers are exploring saccharide-based materials to fulfill the same tasks as their synthetic counterparts while avoiding the concerns of biocompatibility, biodegradability, and sustainability. Saccharide-based materials are abundant in nature and are biocompatible and biodegradable, with wide applications in bioengineering, drug delivery, and therapeutic disease treatments. Saccharide-based materials have been implemented with various NO donors (like S-nitrosothiols and N-diazeniumdiolates) via both chemical and physical methods to deliver NO. These NO-releasing saccharide-based materials have exhibited controlled and sustained NO release and demonstrated biomedical applications in various diseases (respiratory, Crohn's, cardiovascular, etc.), skin or wound applications, antimicrobial treatment, bone regeneration, anticoagulation, as well as agricultural and food packaging. This review aims to highlight the studies in methods and progress in developing saccharide-based NO-releasing materials and investigating their potential applications in biomedical, bioengineering, and disease treatment.

Abstract
The local delivery of gaseous signaling molecules (GSMs) has shown promising therapeutic potential. However, although GSMs have a subtle interplay in physiological and pathological conditions, the co-delivery of different GSMs for therapeutic purposes remains unexplored. Herein, we covalently graft a nitric oxide (NO)-releasing N-nitrosamine moiety onto the carbon monoxide (CO)-releasing 3-hydroxyflavone (3-HF) antenna, resulting in the first NO/CO-releasing donor. Under visible light irradiation, photo-mediated co-release of NO and CO reveals a superior antimicrobial effect toward Gram-positive bacteria with a combination index of 0.053. The synergy of NO and CO hyperpolarizes and permeabilizes bacterial membranes, which, however, shows negligible hemolysis and no evident toxicity toward normal mammalian cells. Moreover, the co-release of NO and CO can efficiently treat MRSA infection in a murine skin wound model, showing a better therapeutic capacity than vancomycin.

Abstract
Although the antimicrobial potential of nitric oxide (NO) is widely published, it is little used clinically. NO is a key signalling molecule modulating vascular, neuronal, inflammatory and immune responses. Endogenous antimicrobial activity is largely mediated by high local NO concentrations produced by cellular inducible nitric oxide synthase, and by derivative reactive nitrogen oxide species including peroxynitrite and S-nitrosothiols. NO may be taken as dietary substrate (inorganic nitrate, L-arginine), and therapeutically as gaseous NO, and transdermal, sublingual, oral, intranasal and intravenous nitrite or nitrate. Numerous preclinical studies have demonstrated that NO has generic static and cidal activities against viruses (including β-coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV-2), bacteria, protozoa and fungi/yeasts
in vitro. Therapeutic effects have been seen in animal models
in vivo, and phase II trials have demonstrated that NO donors can reduce microbial infection. Nevertheless, excess NO, as occurs in septic shock, is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In view of the dose-dependent positive and negative effects of NO, safety and efficacy trials of NO and its donors are needed for assessing their role in the prevention and treatment of infections. Trials should test dietary inorganic nitrate for pre- or post-exposure prophylaxis and gaseous NO or oral, topical or intravenous nitrite and nitrate for treatment of mild-to-severe infections, including due to SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). This review summarises the evidence base from
in vitro, in vivo and early phase clinical studies of NO activity in viral, bacterial, protozoal and fungal infections.

Abstract
Supramolecular assembly loading drug as biomedical materials is a research hotspot. Herein, we reported a supramolecular electrospun assembly constructed via the hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interaction. The obtained results showed that the assembly by supramolecular electrospinning not only increased the interactions of multiple antibacterial active species including antibiotics, cationic polymers, and silver to form a flexible membrane with good mechanical strength but also indicated the dual effects of rapid doxycycline and polyethyleneimine release as well as a sustained Ag release. Interestingly, the assembly showed not only good degradability but also a high bacteriostatic efficacy toward Escherichia coli (E. coli) up to 99.9%. More importantly, the in vivo wound healing assay indicated that the assembly could promote the healing of uninfected, E. coli-infected, and even methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus-infected wounds. The current research provides a novel approach to construct a supramolecular assembly by electrospinning mechanically induced strong noncovalent interaction.

Abstract
Developing an appropriate method to broaden the color of long persistent luminescence materials has important scientific significance and practical value but remains a great challenge. Herein, we have developed a unique strategy to fine-tune the persistent luminescence using the inclusion complex of rhodamine 6G with (2-hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin as efficient light conversion materials. The emitting color of the novel persistent luminescence material could be tuned from green to orange by changing the concentration of the light conversion agent. Furthermore, afterglow decay measurements showed that the initial afterglow brightness is 9.65 cd/m2, and the initial afterglow brightness gradually decreased as the cyclodextrin inclusion compound coating increased. This design concept introduces a new perspective for broadening the luminescence color of afterglow phosphors, which may open up new opportunities for persistent luminescence materials toward many emerging applications.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) serves as a key regulator of many physiological processes and as a potent therapeutic agent. The local delivery of NO is important to achieve target therapeutic outcomes due to the toxicity of NO at high concentrations. Although light stimulus represents a non-invasive tool with spatiotemporal precision to mediate NO release, many photoresponsive NO-releasing molecules can only respond to ultraviolet (UV) or near-UV visible light with low penetration and high phototoxicity. We report that coumarin-based NO donors with maximal absorbances at 328 nm can be activated under (deep) red-light (630 or 700 nm) irradiation in the presence of palladium(II) tetraphenyltetrabenzoporphyrin, enabling stoichiometric and self-reporting NO release with a photolysis quantum yield of 8 % via photoredox catalysis. This NO-releasing platform with ciprofloxacin loading can eradicate Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm in vitro and treat cutaneous abscesses in vivo.

Abstract
Although the antimicrobial potential of nitric oxide (NO) is widely published, it is little used clinically. NO is a key signalling molecule modulating vascular, neuronal, inflammatory and immune responses. Endogenous antimicrobial activity is largely mediated by high local NO concentrations produced by cellular inducible nitric oxide synthase, and by derivative reactive nitrogen oxide species including peroxynitrite and S-nitrosothiols. NO may be taken as dietary substrate (inorganic nitrate, L-arginine), and therapeutically as gaseous NO, and transdermal, sublingual, oral, intranasal and intravenous nitrite or nitrate. Numerous preclinical studies have demonstrated that NO has generic static and cidal activities against viruses (including β-coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV-2), bacteria, protozoa and fungi/yeasts in vitro. Therapeutic effects have been seen in animal models in vivo, and phase II trials have demonstrated that NO donors can reduce microbial infection. Nevertheless, excess NO, as occurs in septic shock, is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In view of the dose-dependent positive and negative effects of NO, safety and efficacy trials of NO and its donors are needed for assessing their role in the prevention and treatment of infections. Trials should test dietary inorganic nitrate for pre- or post-exposure prophylaxis and gaseous NO or oral, topical or intravenous nitrite and nitrate for treatment of mild-to-severe infections, including due to SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). This review summarises the evidence base from in vitro, in vivo and early phase clinical studies of NO activity in viral, bacterial, protozoal and fungal infections.

Abstract
Discrete molecular soft cages integrate multiple functionalities in one molecule. They express their functions from the confined space in their cavity, functional groups in the cavity interior wall and exterior wall, and the chelating nodes in many chelating cages. Such functional integrity render cage molecules special applications in material engineering. Increasing applications of cage molecules in material design have been reported in recent years. Compared with other cavity-rich molecular structures such as metal-organic framework (MOF) or covalent organic frameworks (COF), discrete soft cages present the unique advantage of material design flexibility, that they can easily composite with nanoparticles or polymers and exist in materials of various forms. We document the development of cage-based materials in recent years and expect to further inspire materials engineering to integrate contribution from the functionality specificity of cage molecules and ultimately promote the development of functional materials and thus human life qualities.

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
The synthesis and anticancer cell activity of nitric oxide (NO)-releasing carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are described as potential theranostics. A series of secondary amine-modified CQDs were prepared using a hydrothermal method to modify β-cyclodextrin with hydroxyl and primary amine terminal functional groups. Subsequent reaction of the CQDs with NO gas under alkaline conditions yielded N-diazeniumdiolate NO donor-modified CQDs with adjustable NO payloads (0.2-1.1 μmol/mg) and release kinetics (half-lives from 29 to 79 min) depending on the level of secondary amines and surface functional groups. The anticancer activity of the NO-releasing CQDs against Pa14c, A549, and SW480 cancer cell lines proved to be dependent on both NO payloads and surface functionalizations. Primary amine-modified CQDs with NO payloads ∼1.11 μmol/mg exhibited the greatest anticancer action. A fluorescence microscopy study demonstrated the utility of these NO-releasing CQDs as dual NO-releasing and bioimaging probes.

Abstract
Taking advantage of their respective wound-healing roles in physiology, the dual activity of hyaluronic acid (HA) and nitric oxide (NO) was combined to create a single-agent wound therapeutic. Carboxylic acid groups of HA (6 and 90 kDa) were chemically modified with a series of alkylamines via carbodiimide chemistry to provide secondary amines for subsequent N-diazeniumdiolate NO donor formation. The resulting NO-releasing HA derivatives stored 0.3-0.6 μmol NO mg-1 and displayed diverse release kinetics (5-75 min NO-release half-lives) under physiological conditions. The 6 kDa HA with terminal primary amines and intermediate release kinetics exhibited broad-spectrum bactericidal activity against common wound pathogens, including planktonic methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus as well as planktonic and biofilm-based multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The treatment of infected murine wounds with NO-releasing HA facilitated more rapid wound closure and decreased the quantity of the P. aeruginosa genetic material in the remaining wound tissue. Hyaluronidase readily degraded the HA derivatives, indicating that NO donor modification did not prohibit endogenous biodegradation pathways.

Abstract
The frontier of nitric oxide biology has gradually shifted from mechanism elucidation to biomanipulation, e.g. cell-proliferation promotion, cell-apoptosis induction, and lifespan modulation. This warrants biocompatible nitric oxide (NO) donating materials, whose NO release is not only controlled by a bioorthogonal trigger, but also self-calibrated allowing real-time monitoring and hence an onset/offset of the NO release. Additionally, the dose of NO release should be facilely adjusted in a large dynamic range; flux and the dose are critical to the biological outcome of NO treatment. Via self-assembly of a PEGylated small-molecule NO donor, we developed novel NO-donating nanoparticles (PEG-NORM), which meet all the aforementioned criteria. We showcased that a low flux of NO induced cell proliferation, while a high flux induced cell oxidative stress and, ultimately, death. Notably, PEG-NORM was capable of efficiently modulating the lifespan of C. elegans. The average lifespan of C. elegans could be fine-tuned to be as short as 15.87 ± 0.29 days with a high dose of NO, or as long as 21.13 ± 0.41 days with a low dose of NO, compared to an average life-span of 18.87 ± 0.46 days. Thus, PEG-NORM has broad potential in cell manipulation and life-span modulation and could drive the advancement of NO biology and medicine.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the main contributor to the morbidity and mortality of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Chronic respiratory infections are rarely eradicated due to protection from CF mucus and the biofilm matrix. The composition of the biofilm matrix determines its viscoelastic properties and affects antibiotic efficacy. Nitric oxide (NO) can both disrupt the physical structure of the biofilm and eradicate interior colonies. The effects of a CF-like growth environment on P. aeruginosa biofilm susceptibility to NO were investigated using parallel plate macrorheology and particle tracking microrheology. Biofilms grown in the presence of mucins and DNA contained greater concentrations of DNA in the matrix and exhibited concomitantly larger viscoelastic moduli compared to those grown in tryptic soy broth. Greater viscoelastic moduli correlated with increased tolerance to tobramycin and colistin. Remarkably, NO-releasing cyclodextrins eradicated all biofilms at the same concentration. The capacity of NO-releasing cyclodextrins to eradicate P. aeruginosa biofilms irrespective of matrix composition suggests that NO-based therapies may be superior antibiofilm treatments compared to conventional antibiotics.

Abstract
A series of methyl salicylate (MeSA)/β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) inclusion complexes (ICs) were prepared at different MeSA concentrations by the co-precipitation method using methyl salicylate for maintaining the quality of fresh produce. The formation of IC was confirmed through FTIR, 1H NMR, TGA, and SEM measurements. Among the grades applied, IC with 1:1 grade showed the highest MeSA entrapment efficiency (59%). The release rate of MeSA from an IC was greater at higher temperature and higher relative humidity. In addition, the MeSA release from ICs of all grades followed a diffusive nature and first-order kinetics at 25 °C under all RH conditions, except at 7 °C. These results indicate that the use of a MeSA/β-CD IC in active packaging applications can effective maintain the quality of fresh produce.

Abstract
A unique fluorescent supramolecular assembly was constructed using coumarin-modified β-cyclodextrin as a reversible ratiometric probe and an adamantane-modified cyclic arginine-glycine-aspartate peptide as a cancer-targeting agent via host-guest inclusion complexation. Importantly, the coumarin-modified β-cyclodextrin not only showed higher sensitivity than the parent coumarin derivatives owing to the presence of numerous hydroxyl groups on the cyclodextrin but also provided a hydrophobic cavity for encapsulation of a cancer-targeting agent. The assembly showed a reversible and fast response to biothiols with a micromolar dissociation constant, as well as outstanding cancer cell permeability, which can be used for high-efficiency real-time monitoring of biothiols in cancer cells. This supramolecular assembly strategy endows the fluorescent probe with superior performance for dynamic sensing of biothiols.

Multifunctional nanomaterials for controlling MDR bacterial infections via eradication of planktonic bacteria and their biofilms are of great interest. Results In this study, we developed a multifunctional platform (TG-NO-B) with single NIR laser-triggered PTT and NO release for synergistic therapy against MDR Gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms. When located at the infected sites, TG-NO-B was able to selectively bind to the surfaces of Gram-negative bacterial cells and their biofilm matrix through covalent coupling between the BA groups of TG-NO-B and the bacterial LPS units, which could greatly improve the antibacterial efficiency, and reduce side damages to ambient normal tissues. Upon single NIR laser irradiation, TG-NO-B could generate hyperthermia and simultaneously release NO, which would synergistically disrupt bacterial cell membrane, further cause leakage and damage of intracellular components, and finally induce bacteria death. On one hand, the combination of NO and PTT could largely improve the antibacterial efficiency. On the other hand, the bacterial cell membrane damage could improve the permeability and sensitivity to heat, decrease the photothermal temperature and avoid damages caused by high temperature. Moreover, TG-NO-B could be effectively utilized for synergistic therapy against the in vivo infections of MDR Gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms and accelerate wound healing as well as exhibit excellent biocompatibility both in vitro and in vivo. Conclusions Our study demonstrates that TG-NO-B can be considered as a promising alternative for treating infections caused by MDR Gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms.

Abstract
Due to the high activity and difficult to transport of nitric oxide, the controlled release of nitric oxide has been a new trend in the research on the biological effect of nitric oxide. In this paper, a water-soluble and turn-on fluorescent NO donor Rh-NO was synthesized. Upon 525 nm irradiation, the fluorescence of the Rh-NO at 568 nm enhanced with the quantum yield (ΦF) of Rh-NO changing from 5.08% to 35.96%. The mechanism of NO releasing was proved by HRMS and the Dan. The releasing time of 6 min and the releasing yield of 0.61 proved the superiority of Rh-NO. Excellent cell activity above 80% of Rh-NO and Rh guaranteed that nitric oxide was released from Rh-NO in lysosome and zebrafishes successfully, which provided a good platform to understand the biological effects of nitric oxide in lysosomes.
