Abstract
Molecular imprints, which are crosslinked architectures containing specific molecular recognition cavities for targeting compounds, have recently transitioned from in vitro diagnosis to in vivo treatment. In current application scenarios, it has become an important topic to create new biomolecular recognition pathways through molecular imprinting, thereby inhibiting the pathogenesis and regulating the development of diseases. This review starts with a pathological analysis, mainly focusing on the corresponding artificial enzymes, enzyme inhibitors and antibody mimics with enhanced functions that are created by molecular imprinting strategies. Recent advances are highlighted in the use of molecular imprints as tailor-made nanomedicines for the prevention of three major diseases: metabolic syndrome, cancer, and bacterial/viral infections.

Abstract
The cellular barriers are major bottlenecks for bioactive compounds entering into cells to accomplish their biological functions, which limits their biomedical applications. Nanocarriers have demonstrated high potential and benefits for encapsulating bioactive compounds and efficiently delivering them into target cells by overcoming a cascade of intracellular barriers to achieve desirable therapeutic and diagnostic effects. In this review, we introduce the cellular barriers ahead of drug delivery and nanocarriers, as well as summarize recent advances and strategies of nanocarriers for increasing internalization with cells, promoting intracellular trafficking, overcoming drug resistance, targeting subcellular locations and controlled drug release. Lastly, the future perspectives of nanocarriers for intracellular drug delivery are discussed, which mainly focus on potential challenges and future directions. Our review presents an overview of intracellular drug delivery by nanocarriers, which may encourage the future development of nanocarriers for efficient and precision drug delivery into a wide range of cells and subcellular targets.

Abstract
The separation of proteins in biological samples plays an essential role in the development of disease detection, drug discovery, and biological analysis. Protein imprinted polymers (PIPs) serve as a tool to capture target proteins specifically and selectively from complex media for separation purposes. Whereas conventional molecularly imprinted polymer is time-consuming in terms of incubation studies and solvent removal, magnetic particles are introduced using their magnetic properties for sedimentation and separation, resulting in saving extraction and centrifugation steps. Magnetic protein imprinted polymers (MPIPs), which combine molecularly imprinting materials with magnetic properties, have emerged as a new area of research hotspot. This review provides an overview of MPIPs for proteins, including synthesis, preparation strategies, and applications. Moreover, it also looks forward to the future directions for research in this emerging field.

Abstract
The conventional treatment methods used for the management of autoimmune diseases (ADs) have limited efficacy and also exhibit significant side effects. Thus, identification of novel strategies to improve the efficacy and safety of ADs treatment is urgently required. Overactivated immune response and oxidative stress are common characteristics associated with ADs. Polydopamine (PDA), as a polymer material with good antioxidant and photothermal conversion properties, has displayed useful application potential against ADs. In addition, PDA possesses good biosafety, simple preparation, and easy functionalization, which is conducive for the pharmacological development of PDA nanomaterials with clinical transformation prospects. Here, we have first reviewed the preparation of PDA, the different functional integration strategies of PDA-based biomaterials, and their potential applications in ADs. Next, the mechanism of action of PDA in ADs has been elaborated in detail. Finally, the application opportunities and challenges linked with PDA nanomaterials for ADs treatment are discussed. This review is contributed to design reasonable and effective PDA nanomaterials for the diagnosis and treatment of ADs.

Abstract
A novel chiral molecularly imprinted polymer TiO2 nanoparticle was synthesized in one step for the enantioseparation of phenylalanine in coated capillary electrochromatography. To the author's knowledge, the chiral molecularly imprinted nanomaterials have still not been reported, to date. Chiral molecularly imprinted TiO2 nanomaterials (L-PHE@MIP(APTES-TEOS)@TiO2) were used as a chiral stationary phase to separate the phenylalanine enantiomers in coated capillary electrochromatography (CEC). The imprinted coating was prepared from L-phenylalanine (L-PHE) as the template, TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) as the support substrate, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) as the functional monomer, and tetraethyl silicate (TEOS) as the cross-linker. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were used for the characterization of the L-PHE@MIP(APTES-TEOS)@TiO2@capillary. Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were employed for the characterization of the L-PHE@MIP(APTES-TEOS)@TiO2. The effects of the applied voltage, pH value, buffer concentration, and acetonitrile content were investigated experimentally to determine the optimum conditions for CEC. The best resolution for phenylalanine enantiomers by CEC reached a value of 3.48. In addition, the specific recognition effect of L-PHE@MIP(APTES-TEOS)@TiO2 on PHE enantiomers was studied by selective experiment. Finally, adsorption kinetic research, adsorption equilibrium isotherm study, and adsorption thermodynamic experiment were carried out to investigate the separation mechanism of PHE enantiomers with the L-PHE@MIP (APTES-TEOS)@TiO2@capillary, and the results were consistent with those of CEC experiments.

Abstract
Pollutant exposure causes a series of DNA damage in cells, resulting in the initiation and progression of diseases and even cancers. An investigation of the DNA damage induced by pollutants in living cells is significant to evaluate the cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, and carcinogenicity of environmental exposure, providing critical insight in the exploration of the etiologies of diseases. In this study, we develop a repair enzyme fluorescent probe to reveal the DNA damage caused by an environmental pollutant in living cells by single-cell fluorescent imaging of the most common base damage repair enzyme named human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1). The repair enzyme fluorescent probe is fabricated by conjugation of an APE1 high affinity DNA substrate on a ZnO2 nanoparticle surface to form a ZnO2@DNA nanoprobe. The ZnO2 nanoparticle serves as both a probe carrier and a cofactor supplier, releasing Zn2+ to activate APE1 generated by pollutant exposure. The AP-site in the DNA substrate of the fluorescent probe is cleaved by the activated APE1, releasing fluorophore and generating fluorescent signals to indicate the position and degree of APE1-related DNA base damage in living cells. Subsequently, the developed ZnO2@DNA fluorescent probe is applied to investigate the APE1-related DNA base damage induced by benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) in living human hepatocytes. Significant DNA base damage by BaP exposure is revealed, with a positive correlation of the damage degree with exposure time in 2-24 h and the concentration in 5-150 μM, respectively. The experimental results demonstrate that BaP has a significant effect on the AP-site damage, and the degree of DNA base damage is time-dependent and concentration-dependent.

Abstract
Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is a multifunctional DNA repair protein localized in different subcellular compartments. The mechanisms responsible for the highly regulated subcellular localization and "interactomes" of this protein are not fully understood but have been closely correlated to the posttranslational modifications in different biological context. In this work, we attempted to develop a bio-nanocomposite with antibody-like properties that could capture APE1 from cellular matrices to enable the comprehensive study of this protein. By fixing the template APE1 on the avidin-modified surface of silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles, we first added 3-aminophenylboronic acid to react with the glycosyl residues of avidin, followed by addition of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid as the second functional monomer to perform the first step imprinting reaction. To further enhance the affinity and selectivity of the binding sites, we carried out the second step imprinting reaction with dopamine as the functional monomer. After the polymerization, we modified the nonimprinted sites with methoxypoly(ethylene glycol) amine (mPEG-NH2 ). The resulting molecularly imprinted polymer-based bio-nanocomposite showed high affinity, specificity, and capacity for template APE1. It allowed for the extraction of APE1 from the cell lysates with high recovery and purity. Moreover, the bound protein could be effectively released from the bio-nanocomposite with high activity. The bio-nanocomposite offers a very useful tool for the separation of APE1 from various complex biological samples.

Abstract
Herein, Ag@pyrenecarboxaldehyde nanocapsules (Ag@Pyc nanocapsules) as emitters were prepared to construct an ultrasensitive electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor for the detection of the human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease1 (APE1) activity. Ag nanoparticles on the surface of Pyc nanocapsules as coreaction accelerators could significantly promote coreactant peroxydisulfate (S2O82-) to generate massive reactive intermediates of sulfate radical anion (SO4•-), which interacted with the Pyc nanocapsules to achieve a strong ECL response. In addition, with the aid of APE1-triggered 3D DNA machine, trace target could be converted into a large number of mimic targets (MTs), which were positively correlated with the activity of APE1. Consequently, the proposed ECL biosensor realized an ultrasensitive detection of APE1 activity with an exceptional linear working range from 5 × 10-10 to 5 × 10-4 U·μL-1 and a lower limit of detection of 1.36 × 10-11 U·μL-1. This strategy provided a new approach to construct an efficient ternary system for the detection of biomolecules and early diagnosis of diseases.

Abstract
On-line monitoring of the dopamine (DA)-based molecular imprinting processes over Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2 nanoparticles (SiMNPs) is reported by using a real-time quantitative PCR machine. Taking advantages of the efficient fluorescence quenching capability of polydopamine (PDA) and its high binding affinity to rhodamine B (RhB), we performed molecular imprinting against different proteins with free dopamine as the functional monomer and RhB as a fluorescent indicator. Along with the template molecules, the fluorescent indicators were continuously encapsulated into the PDA layer formed on the surface of the SiMNPs, resulting in immediate quenching of the fluorescence, which can be conveniently monitored in real time. As proteins showed sequence-dependent influences on the oxidation of dopamine and subsequent self-assembly on the surface of the SiMNPs, the observed fluorescence signals clearly indicated the polymerization progress in the presence of the template proteins, allowing precise control of the reaction time for different templates at a given initial concentration. The optimum end point of the reaction was found to be when 90 ± 3% of the templates had been encapsulated into the polymer, which offered the highest imprinting factor and selectivity. We applied the approach to prepare a primary PDA-based surface imprinted polymer for a multifunctional protein apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease/redox effector factor 1 (APE1). After further introduction of 3-hydroxyphenylboronic acid to the interfaces between APE1 and PDA, the resultant molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP-II) enabled quantitative isolation APE1 from cell lysate samples. The developed approach will be useful for the quantitative preparation of PDA-based MIPs for precious template proteins with limited input quantity. It is also applicable for further study on the effects of different proteins or peptides on the PDA formation reactions.

Abstract
As we all know, inhibiting the activity of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) has always been an effective strategy for folate antimetabolites to treat tumors. In the past, it mainly relied on chemical drugs. Here, we propose a new strategy, (3-propanecarboxyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide (CTPB)-modified molecularly imprinted polymer nanomedicine (MIP-CTPB). MIP-CTPB prepared by imprinting the active center of DHFR can specifically bind to the active center to block the catalytic activity of DHFR, thereby inhibiting the synthesis of DNA and ultimately inhibiting the tumor growth. The modification of CTPB allows the nanomedicine to be targeted and enriched in mitochondria, where DHFR is abundant. The confocal laser imaging results show that MIP-CTPB can target mitochondria. Cytotoxicity experiments show that MIP-CTPB inhibits HeLa cell proliferation by 42.2%. In vivo experiments show that the tumor volume of the MIP-CTPB-treated group is only one-sixth of that of the untreated group. The fluorescent and paramagnetic properties of the nanomedicine enable targeted fluorescence imaging of mitochondria and T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging of tumors. This research not only opens up a new direction for the application of molecular imprinting, but also provides a new idea for tumor antimetabolic therapy guided by targeted mitochondrial imaging.

Abstract
Advances in revolutionary technologies pose new challenges for human life; in response to them, global responsibility is pushing modern technologies toward greener pathways. Molecular imprinting technology (MIT) is a multidisciplinary mimic technology simulating the specific binding principle of enzymes to substrates or antigens to antibodies; along with its rapid progress and wide applications, MIT faces the challenge of complying with green sustainable development requirements. With the identification of environmental risks associated with unsustainable MIT, a new aspect of MIT, termed green MIT, has emerged and developed. However, so far, no clear definition has been provided to appraise green MIT. Herein, the implementation process of green chemistry in MIT is demonstrated and a mnemonic device in the form of an acronym, GREENIFICATION, is proposed to present the green MIT principles. The entire greenificated imprinting process is surveyed, including element choice, polymerization implementation, energy input, imprinting strategies, waste treatment, and recovery, as well as the impacts of these processes on operator health and the environment. Moreover, assistance of upgraded instrumentation in deploying greener goals is considered. Finally, future perspectives are presented to provide a more complete picture of the greenificated MIT road map and to pave the way for further development.

Abstract
As the most representative family of proteinases related to tumorigenesis, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) represents a key player in cancer cell migration and regulation of the tumor microenvironment. The inhibition of MMP-9 activity has been pursued as a target for anticancer therapy. However, most synthetic MMP-9 inhibitors have failed in clinical trials because of their lack of selectivity. Here, an abiotic mimic based on molecularly imprinted nanoparticles has been designed as an inhibitor for MMP-9. To attain fast mass transfer and facilitate multifunctional roles, we synthesized the imprinted polymer thin layer on the surface of gold nanorods by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization using MMP-9 as the template, which captures MMP-9 selectively and inhibits its activity by providing steric hindrance to the activity-related domain of MMP-9. In vitro cell experiments and in vivo studies in mice demonstrate that the imprinted artificial antibody suppresses the migration and growth of metastatic tumors. The tumor growth inhibition rate reaches up to 54 ± 15%. Compared with the typical photothermal therapy induced by gold nanorods, the use of MMP-9-imprinted synthetic antibody could better inhibit the lung tumor metastasis by quenching the enzyme activity of MMP-9. This study offers a new paradigm in the engineering of imprinted nanoparticles as inhibitors for cancer therapy.

Abstract
As a kind of artificial recognition material, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) offer a promising perspective to be developed as synthetic chemical binders capable of selectively recognize biomacromolecules. However, owing to the large size and conformational flexibility of proteins and peptides, imprinting of these biomacromolecules remains a challenge. Novel imprinting strategies still need exploration for the improvement of recognition performance of MIPs. Herein, we developed a hydrazone bond-oriented surface imprinting strategy for an endogenous peptide hormone, human atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). Surface-oriented imprinting of peptide via reversible covalent bond anchoring approach increased the orientation homogeneity of imprinted cavities as well as the utility of templates. The prepared nanoparticles exhibited high selectivity and fast recognition kinetics for ANP epitope. The dissociation constant between ANP epitope and MIP was measured as 5.3 μM. The applicability of the material in real samples was verified by the selective magnetic extraction of ANP from human plasma samples. This hydrazone bond-oriented surface imprinting strategy provides an alternative approach for the separation of peptides or proteins in complex bio-samples.

Abstract
Phenolics are ubiquitous in nature and have gained immense research attention because of their unique physiochemical properties and widespread industrial use. In recent decades, their accessibility, versatile reactivity, and relative biocompatibility have catalysed research in phenolic-enabled nanotechnology (PEN) particularly for biomedical applications which have been a major benefactor of this emergence, as largely demonstrated by polydopamine and polyphenols. Therefore, it is imperative to overveiw the fundamental mechanisms and synthetic strategies of PEN for state-of-the-art biomedical applications and provide a timely and comprehensive summary. In this review, we will focus on the principles and strategies involved in PEN and summarize the use of the PEN synthetic toolkit for particle engineering and the bottom-up synthesis of nanohybrid materials. Specifically, we will discuss the attractive forces between phenolics and complementary structural motifs in confined particle systems to synthesize high-quality products with controllable size, shape, composition, as well as surface chemistry and function. Additionally, phenolic's numerous applications in biosensing, bioimaging, and disease treatment will be highlighted. This review aims to provide guidelines for new scientists in the field and serve as an up-to-date compilation of what has been achieved in this area, while offering expert perspectives on PEN's use in translational research.

Abstract
In this Review, we have summarized recent trends in protein template imprinting. We emphasized a new trend in surface imprinting, namely, oriented protein immobilization. Site-directed proteins were assembled through specially selected functionalities. These efforts resulted in a preferably oriented homogeneous protein construct with decreased protein conformation changes during imprinting. Moreover, the maximum functionality for protein recognition was utilized. Various strategies were exploited for oriented protein immobilization, including covalent immobilization through a boronic acid group, metal coordinating center, and aptamer-based immobilization. Moreover, we have discussed the involvement of semicovalent as well as covalent imprinting. Interestingly, these approaches provided additional recognition sites in the molecular cavities imprinted. Therefore, these molecular cavities were highly selective, and the binding kinetics was improved.

Abstract
Simple Summary Ischemic stroke is caused by the blockade of a blood vessel in the brain. Consequently, the brain region supplied by the blocked vessel suffers brain damage and becomes acidic. Here we provide a summary of the causes and consequences of acid accumulation in the brain tissue. Ischemic stroke requires immediate medical attention to minimize the damage of brain tissue, and to save function. It would be desirable for the medical treatment to target the site of injury selectively, to enrich the site of ongoing injury with the protective agent, and to avoid undesirable side effects at the same time. We propose that acid accumulation at the sight of brain tissue injury can be used to delineate the region that would benefit most from medical treatment. Tiny drug carriers known as nanoparticles may be loaded with drugs that protect the brain tissue. These nanoparticles may be designed to release their drug cargo in response to an acidic environment. This would ensure that the therapeutic agent is directed selectively to the site where it is needed. Ultimately, this approach may offer a new way to treat stroke patients with the hope of more effective therapy, and better stroke outcome. Abstract Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Yet, the effective therapy of focal cerebral ischemia has been an unresolved challenge. We propose here that ischemic tissue acidosis, a sensitive metabolic indicator of injury progression in cerebral ischemia, can be harnessed for the targeted delivery of neuroprotective agents. Ischemic tissue acidosis, which represents the accumulation of lactic acid in malperfused brain tissue is significantly exacerbated by the recurrence of spreading depolarizations. Deepening acidosis itself activates specific ion channels to cause neurotoxic cellular Ca2+ accumulation and cytotoxic edema. These processes are thought to contribute to the loss of the ischemic penumbra. The unique metabolic status of the ischemic penumbra has been exploited to identify the penumbra zone with imaging tools. Importantly, acidosis in the ischemic penumbra may also be used to guide therapeutic intervention. Agents with neuroprotective promise are suggested here to be delivered selectively to the ischemic penumbra with pH-responsive smart nanosystems. The administered nanoparticels release their cargo in acidic tissue environment, which reliably delineates sites at risk of injury. Therefore, tissue pH-targeted drug delivery is expected to enrich sites of ongoing injury with the therapeutical agent, without the risk of unfavorable off-target effects.

Abstract
Zinc metalloproteases (ZnMPs) participate in diverse biological reactions, encompassing the synthesis and degradation of all the major metabolites in living organisms. In particular, ZnMPs have been recognized to play a very important role in controlling the concentration level of several peptides and/or proteins whose homeostasis has to be finely regulated for the correct physiology of cells. Dyshomeostasis of aggregation-prone proteins causes pathological conditions and the development of several different diseases. For this reason, in recent years, many analytical approaches have been applied for studying the interaction between ZnMPs and their substrates and how environmental factors can affect enzyme activities. In this scenario, mass spectrometric methods occupy a very important role in elucidating different aspects of ZnMPs-substrates interaction. These range from identification of cleavage sites to quantitation of kinetic parameters. In this work, an overview of all the main achievements regarding the application of mass spectrometric methods to investigating ZnMPs-substrates interactions is presented. A general experimental protocol is also described which may prove useful to the study of similar interactions. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Mass Spec Rev.

Abstract
Glycoproteins represent a group of important biomarkers for cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Selective detection of specific glycoproteins is an important step for early diagnosis. Traditional glycoprotein assays are mostly based on lectins, antibodies, and enzymes, biochemical reagents that are costly and require special cold chain storage and distribution. To address the shortcomings of the existing glycoprotein assays, we propose a new approach using protein-imprinted nanoparticles to replace the traditional lectins and antibodies. Protein-imprinted binding sites were created on the surface of silica nanoparticles by copolymerization of dopamine and aminophenylboronic acid. The imprinted nanoparticles were systematically characterized by dynamic light scattering, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. A boronic acid-modified fluorescent probe was used to detect the target glycoprotein captured by the imprinted nanoparticles. Using horseradish peroxidase as a model glycoprotein, we demonstrated that the proposed method can be applied to detect target protein containing multiple glycosylation sites. Because of their outstanding stability and low cost, imprinted nanoparticles and synthetic probes are attractive replacements of traditional biochemical reagents to develop simpler, faster, and more cost-effective analytical methods for glycoproteins.
