C176-loaded and phosphatidylserine-modified nanoparticles treat retinal neovascularization by promoting M2 macrophage polarization. Bioact Mater 2024; 39:392-405. [PMID: 38855060 PMCID: PMC11157223 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.05.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2024] [Revised: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Retinal neovascularization (RNV), a typical pathological manifestation involved in most neovascular diseases, causes retinal detachment, vision loss, and ultimately irreversible blindness. Repeated intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF drugs were developed against RNV, with limitations of incomplete responses and adverse effects. Therefore, a new treatment with a better curative effect and more prolonged dosage is demanding. Here, we induced macrophage polarization to anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype by inhibiting cGAS-STING signaling with an antagonist C176, appreciating the role of cGAS-STING signaling in the retina in pro-inflammatory M1 polarization. C176-loaded and phosphatidylserine-modified dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles were constructed and examined by a single intravitreal injection. The biosafe nanoparticles were phagocytosed by retinal macrophages through a phosphatidylserine-mediated "eat me" signal, which persistently release C176 to suppress STING signaling and thereby promote macrophage M2 polarization specifically. A single dosage can effectively alleviate pathological angiogenesis phenotypes in murine oxygen-induced retinopathy models. In conclusion, these C176-loaded nanoparticles with enhanced cell uptake and long-lasting STING inhibition effects might serve as a promising way for treating RNV.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 668:282-292. [PMID: 38678884 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.04.130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) have emerged as a versatile and multifunctional platform applied in bioimaging, disease treatment, electrocatalysis, and water purification. The synthesis of MPNs with mesoporous frameworks and ultra-small diameters (<200 nm), crucial for post-modification, cargo loading, and mass transport, remains a formidable challenge. Inspired by mussel chemistry, mesoporous metal-phenolic nanospheres (MMPNs) are facilely prepared by direct deposition of the metal-polyphenol complex on the interface of oil nano-droplets composed of block copolymers/1,3,5-trimethylbenzene followed by a spontaneous template-removal process. Due to the penetrable and stable networks, the oil nano-droplets gradually leak from the networks driven by shear stress during the stirring process. As a result, MMPNs are obtained without additional template removal procedures such as solvent extraction or high-temperature calcination. The materials have a large pore size (∼12.1 nm), uniform spherical morphology with a small particle size (∼99 nm), and a large specific surface area (49.8 m2 g-1). Due to the abundant phenolic hydroxyl groups, the MMPNs show excellent antioxidative property. The MMPNs also have excellent photothermal property, whose photothermal conversion efficiency was 40.9 %. Moreover, the phenolic hydroxyl groups can reduce Ag+ in situ to prepare Ag nanoparticles loaded MMPNs composites, which have excellent inhibition performance of drug-resistant bacteria biofilm.

ROS-responsive charge reversal mesoporous silica nanoparticles as promising drug delivery system for neovascular retinal diseases. J Control Release 2024; 373:224-239. [PMID: 39002796 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2024.07.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2023] [Revised: 06/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
Intravitreal injection of biodegradable implant drug carriers shows promise in reducing the injection frequency for neovascular retinal diseases. However, current intravitreal ocular devices have limitations in adjusting drug release rates for individual patients, thereby affecting treatment effectiveness. Accordingly, we developed mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) featuring a surface that reverse its charge in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS) for efficient delivery of humanin peptide (HN) to retinal epithelial cells (ARPE-19). The MSN core, designed with a pore size of 2.8 nm, ensures a high HN loading capacity 64.4% (w/w). We fine-tuned the external surface of the MSNs by incorporating 20% Acetyl-L-arginine (Ar) to create a partial positive charge, while 80% conjugated thioketal (TK) methoxy polyethylene glycol (mPEG) act as ROS gatekeeper. Ex vivo experiments using bovine eyes revealed the immobilization of Ar-MSNs-TK-PEG (mean zeta potential: 2 mV) in the negatively charged vitreous. However, oxidative stress reversed the surface charge to -25 mV by mPEG loss, facilitating the diffusion of the nanoparticles impeded with HN. In vitro studies showed that ARPE-19 cells effectively internalize HN-loaded Ar-MSNs-TK, subsequently releasing the peptide, which offered protection against oxidative stress-induced apoptosis, as evidenced by reduced TUNEL and caspase3 activation. The inhibition of retinal neovascularization was further validated in an in vivo oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) mouse model.

Abstract
The presence of hierarchical suppressive pathways in the immune system combined with poor delivery efficiencies of adjuvants and antigens to antigen-presenting cells are major challenges in developing advanced vaccines. The present study reports a nanoadjuvant constructed using aluminosilicate nanoparticles (as particle templates), incorporating cytosine-phosphate-guanosine (CpG) oligonucleotides and small-interfering RNA (siRNA) to counteract immune suppression in antigen-presenting cells. Furthermore, the application of a metal-phenolic network (MPN) coating, which can endow the nanoparticles with protective and bioadhesive properties, is assessed with regard to the stability and immune function of the resulting nanoadjuvant in vitro and in vivo. Combining the adjuvanticity of aluminum and CpG with RNA interference and MPN coating results in a nanoadjuvant that exhibits greater accumulation in lymph nodes and elicits improved maturation of dendritic cells in comparison to a formulation without siRNA or MPN, and with no observable organ toxicity. The incorporation of a model antigen, ovalbumin, within the MPN coating demonstrates the capacity of MPNs to load functional biomolecules as well as the ability of the nanoadjuvant to trigger enhanced antigen-specific responses. The present template-assisted fabrication strategy for engineering nanoadjuvants holds promise in the design of delivery systems for disease prevention, as well as therapeutics.

Abstract
The detriments of intrinsic silanol groups in mesoporous silica to the photoluminescence (PL) of lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (LHP NCs) confined in the template have never been determined and clearly elucidated. Here, we disclose that silanol-induced Cs+ and Br- deficiencies prompt the generation of traps and CsPb2Br5 impurities. The temperature-dependent PL spectra verify the higher energetic barrier of trap states in CsPbBr3 NCs confined in silanol-rich mesoporous silica. Femtosecond transient absorption spectra reveal the trapped state mediates a broadband photoinduced absorption and long-lived decay pathway of CsPbBr3 NCs in silanol-rich templates. A remarkable improvement (up to 160-fold) in PL quantum yields is realized by simple silanol elimination. This work demonstrates the detrimental effects of silanol sites on the PL properties of LHP NCs impregnated in mesoporous silica and provides a new perspective for the ligand-free synthesis of high-quality LHP NCs in mesoporous templates by facile impregnation for practical applications.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy recently transforms the traditional approaches against various cancer malignancies. Immunotherapy includes systemic and local treatments to enhance immune responses against cancer and involves strategies such as immune checkpoints, cancer vaccines, immune modulatory agents, mimetic antigen-presenting cells, and adoptive cell therapy. Despite promising results, these approaches still suffer from several limitations including lack of precise delivery of immune-modulatory agents to the target cells and off-target toxicity, among others, that can be overcome using nanotechnology. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are investigated to improve various aspects of cancer immunotherapy attributed to the advantageous structural features of this nanomaterial. MSNs can be engineered to alter their properties such as size, shape, porosity, surface functionality, and adjuvanticity. This review explores the immunological properties of MSNs and the use of MSNs as delivery vehicles for immune-adjuvants, vaccines, and mimetic antigen-presenting cells (APCs). The review also details the current strategies to remodel the tumor microenvironment to positively reciprocate toward the anti-tumor immune cells and the use of MSNs for immunotherapy in combination with other anti-tumor therapies including photodynamic/thermal therapies to enhance the therapeutic effect against cancer. Last, the present demands and future scenarios for the use of MSNs for cancer immunotherapy are discussed.

Abstract
Three-dimensionally (3D) integrated metallic nanomaterials composed of two or more different types of nanostructures make up a class of advanced materials due to the multidimensional and synergistic effects between different components. However, designing and synthesizing intricate, well-defined metallic 3D nanomaterials remain great challenges. Here, a novel single-particle soft-enveloping strategy using a core-shell Au NP@mSiO2 particle as a template was proposed to synthesize 3D nanomaterials, namely, a Au nanoparticle@center-radial nanorod-Au-Pt nanoparticle (Au NP@NR-NP-Pt NP) superstructure. Taking advantage of the excellent plasmonic properties of Au NP@NR-NP by the synergistic plasmonic coupling of the outer Au NPs and inner Au nanorods, we can enhance the catalytic performance for 4-nitrophenol hydrogenation using Au NP@NR-NP-Pt NP as a photocatalyst with plasmon-excited hot electrons from Au NP@NR-NP under light irradiation, which is 2.76 times higher than in the dark. This process opens a door for the design of a new generation of 3D metallic nanomaterials for different fields.

Abstract
The distinctive morphology of dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DMSN) has recently attracted considerable attention in scientific community. However, synthesis of DMSN with well-defined structure and uniform size for ultrafast extraction of trace herbicide residues from environmental and food samples remains to be a compelling challenge. In this study, sulfhydryl functionalized dendritic mesoporous silica (SH-DMSN) was synthesized and the SH-DMSN showcases monodisperse microspheres with flower shape and precisely tailored and controllable pore sizes. This distinctive structural configuration accelerates mass transfer within the silica layer, resulting in heightened adsorption efficiencies. Furthermore, the particle sizes (455, 765, and 808) of the adsorbent can be meticulously fine-tuned by introducing distinct templates. Specifically, when the particle size is 765 nm, the optimized SH-DMSN exhibits a substantial specific surface area (691.32 m²/g), outstanding adsorption efficiencies (>90 %), remarkably swift adsorption and desorption kinetics (2 min and 3 min, respectively), and exceptional stability. The superior adsorption capabilities of this novel adsorbent, ranging from 481.65 to 1021.7 µg/g for organochlorine herbicides containing amide groups, can be attributed to the interplay of S-π interactions, halogen bonding, and electrostatic attraction interaction. These interactions involve the lone pair electrons of sulfhydryl and silanol groups with the π-electrons, halogen atoms and amide groups in herbicide molecules. This study not only offers a new perspective on advancing the practical utilization of dendritic mesoporous silica but also provides a pragmatic strategy for the separation and analysis of herbicides in diverse sample matrices.

Abstract
Traditional tumour-dynamic therapy still inevitably faces the critical challenge of limited reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating efficiency due to tumour hypoxia, extreme pH condition for Fenton reaction, and unsustainable mono-catalytic reaction. To fight against these issues, we skilfully develop a tumour-microenvironment-driven yolk-shell nanoreactor to realize the high-efficiency persistent dynamic therapy via cascade-responsive dual cycling amplification of •SO4 -/•OH radicals. The nanoreactor with an ultrahigh payload of free radical initiator is designed by encapsulating the Na2S2O8 nanocrystals into hollow tetra-sulphide-introduced mesoporous silica (HTSMS) and afterward enclosed by epigallocatechin gallate (EG)-Fe(II) cross-linking. Within the tumour microenvironment, the intracellular glutathione (GSH) can trigger the tetra-sulphide cleavage of nanoreactors to explosively release Na+/S2O8 2 - /Fe2+ and EG. Then a sequence of cascade reactions will be activated to efficiently generate •SO4 - (Fe2+-catalyzed S2O8 2 - oxidation), proton (•SO4 --catalyzed H2O decomposition), and •OH (proton-intensified Fenton oxidation). Synchronously, the oxidation-generated Fe3+ will be in turn recovered into Fe2+ by excessive EG to circularly amplify •SO4 -/•OH radicals. The nanoreactors can also disrupt the intracellular osmolarity homeostasis by Na+ overload and weaken the ROS-scavenging systems by GSH exhaustion to further amplify oxidative stress. Our yolk-shell nanoreactors can efficiently eradicate tumours via multiple oxidative stress amplification, which will provide a perspective to explore dynamic therapy.

Abstract
Phosphorescence analyses have attracted broad attention due to their remarkable merits of the elimination of auto-fluorescence and scattering light. However, it remains a great challenge to develop novel materials with uniform size and morphology, stability, long lifetime, and aqueous-phase room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) characteristics. Herein, monodisperse and uniform RTP nanobeads were fabricated by an in situ covalent hybridization of carbon dots (CDs) and dendritic mesoporous silicon nanoparticles (DMSNs) via silane hydrolysis. The formation of Si-O-C and Si-C/N covalent bonds is beneficial for the fixation of vibrations and rotations of the luminescent centers. Specially, the nanopores of DMSNs provide a confined area that can isolate the triplet state of CDs from water and oxygen and thus ensure the occurrence of aqueous-phase RTP with an ultra-long lifetime of 1.195 s (seen by the naked eye up to 9 seconds). Through surface modifying folic acid (FA), CDs@DMSNs can serve as a probe to distinguish different cell lines that feature varying FA receptor expression levels. In addition, taking MCF-7 as the model, highly sensitive and quantitative detection (linear range: 103-106 cells per mL) has been achieved via an RTP probe. Furthermore, their potential applications in cellular and in vivo time-gated phosphorescence imaging have been proposed and demonstrated, respectively. This work would provide a new route to design CD-based RTP composites and promote their further applications in the medical and biological fields.

Abstract
Biomaterials play a vital role in targeting therapeutics. Over the years, several biomaterials have gained wide attention in the treatment and diagnosis of diseases. Scientists are trying to make more personalized treatments for different diseases, as well as discovering novel single agents that can be used for prognosis, medication administration, and keeping track of how a treatment works. Theranostics based on nano-biomaterials have higher sensitivity and specificity for disease management than conventional techniques. This review provides a concise overview of various biomaterials, including carbon-based materials like fullerenes, graphene, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and carbon nanofibers, and their involvement in theranostics of different diseases. In addition, the involvement of imaging techniques for theranostics applications was overviewed. Theranostics is an emerging strategy that has great potential for enhancing the accuracy and efficacy of medicinal interventions. Despite the presence of obstacles such as disease heterogeneity, toxicity, reproducibility, uniformity, upscaling production, and regulatory hurdles, the field of medical research and development has great promise due to its ability to provide patients with personalised care, facilitate early identification, and enable focused treatment.

Abstract
Pinosylvin monomethyl ether (PsMME) is a natural compound known for its valuable bioactive properties, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. However, PsMME's susceptibility to photodegradation upon exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation poses a significant limitation to its applications in the pharmaceutical field. This study, for the first time, introduces a strategy to enhance the photostability of PsMME by employing various nanoformulations. We utilized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) coated with polydopamine via a poly(ethylene imine) layer (PDA-PEI-MSNs), thermally carbonized porous silicon nanoparticles (TCPSi), and pure mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA). All these nanocarriers exhibit unique characteristics, including the potential for shielding the drug from UV light, which makes them promising for enhancing the photostability of loaded drugs. Here, these three nanoparticles were synthesized and their morphological and physicochemical properties, including size and ζ-potential, were characterized. They were subsequently loaded with PsMME, and the release profiles and kinetics of all three nanoformulations were determined. To assess their photoprotection ability, we employed gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to assess the recovery percentage of loaded PsMME before and after UV exposure for each nanoformulation. Our findings reveal that MPDA exhibits the highest protection ability, with a remarkable 90% protection against UV light on average. This positions MPDA as an ideal carrier for PsMME, and by extension, potentially for other photolabile drugs as well. As a final confirmation of its suitability as a drug nanocarrier, we conducted cytotoxicity evaluations of PsMME-loaded MPDA, demonstrating dose-dependent drug toxicity for this formulation.

Abstract
Due to their inherent advantages, silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) have greatly potential applications as bioactive materials in biosensors/biomedicine. However, the long-term and nonspecific accumulation in healthy tissues may give rise to toxicity, thereby impeding their widespread clinical application. Hence, it is imperative and noteworthy to develop biodegradable and clearable SiNPs for biomedical purposes. Recently, the design of multi-stimuli responsive SiNPs to improve degradation efficiency under specific pathological conditions has increased their clinical trial potential as theranostic nanoplatform. This review comprehensively summaries the rational design and recent progress of biodegradable SiNPs under various internal and external stimuli for rapid in vivo degradation and clearance. In addition, the factors that affect the biodegradation of SiNPs are also discussed. We believe that this systematic review will offer profound stimulus and timely guide for further research in the field of SiNP-based nanosensors/nanomedicine.

Abstract
There were defects like limited osteogenesis and fast drug release in traditional magnesium phosphate bone cement (MPC). In this study, we loaded icariin in a mesoporous nano silica container modified by polydopamine and then added it and citric acid into MPC (IHP-CA MPCs). The results indicate that IHP-CA MPCs have a long curing time, almost neutral pH value, excellent injectability, and compressive strength. In vitro experiments have shown that IHP-CA MPCs have good biocompatibility and bone promoting ability. These improvements provide feasible solutions and references for the clinical application of MPCs as implants.

Abstract
Despite its effectiveness in eliminating cancer cells, ferroptosis is hindered by the high natural antioxidant glutathione (GSH) levels in the tumor microenvironment. Herein, we developed a spatially asymmetric nanoparticle, Fe3O4@DMS&PDA@MnO2-SRF, for enhanced ferroptosis. It consists of two subunits: Fe3O4 nanoparticles coated with dendritic mesoporous silica (DMS) and PDA@MnO2 (PDA: polydopamine) loaded with sorafenib (SRF). The spatial isolation of the Fe3O4@DMS and PDA@MnO2-SRF subunits enhances the synergistic effect between the GSH-scavengers and ferroptosis-related components. First, the increased exposure of the Fe3O4 subunit enhances the Fenton reaction, leading to increased production of reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, the PDA@MnO2-SRF subunit effectively depletes GSH, thereby inducing ferroptosis by the inactivation of glutathione-dependent peroxidases 4. Moreover, the SRF blocks Xc- transport in tumor cells, augmenting GSH depletion capabilities. The dual GSH depletion of the Fe3O4@DMS&PDA@MnO2-SRF significantly weakens the antioxidative system, boosting the chemodynamic performance and leading to increased ferroptosis of tumor cells.

Abstract
Topical drug delivery is widely used in various diseases because of the advantages of not passing through the gastrointestinal tract, avoiding gastrointestinal irritation and hepatic first-pass effect, and reaching the lesion directly to reduce unnecessary adverse reactions. The skin helps the organism to defend itself against a huge majority of external aggressions and is one of the most important lines of defense of the body. However, the skin's strong barrier ability is also a huge obstacle to the effectiveness of topical medications. Allowing the bioactive, composition in a drug to pass through the stratum corneum barrier as needed to reach the target site is the most essential need for the bioactive, composition to exert its therapeutic effect. The state of the skin barrier, the choice of delivery system for the bioactive, composition, and individualized disease detection and dosing planning influence the effectiveness of topical medications. Nowadays, enhancing transdermal absorption of topically applied drugs is the hottest research area. However, enhancing transdermal absorption of drugs is not the first choice to improve the effectiveness of all drugs. Excessive transdermal absorption enhances topical drug accumulation at non-target sites and the occurrence of adverse reactions. This paper introduces topical drug delivery strategies to improve drug effectiveness from three perspectives: skin barrier, drug delivery system and individualized drug delivery, describes the current status and shortcomings of topical drug research, and provides new directions and ideas for topical drug research.

Synthesis of multi-cavity mesoporous carbon nanospheres through solvent-induced self-assembly: Anode material for sodium-ion batteries with long-term cycle stability. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 654:1447-1457.

Abstract
Mesoporous carbon nanospheres (MCSs) are extensively employed in energy storage applications due to their ordered pore size, large specific surface area (SSA), and abundant active sites, resulting in excellent electrochemical performance for sodium storage. However, challenges persist in achieving precise structural control and stable synthesis reactions for these MCSs. Additionally, employing MCSs with a larger SSA in sodium storage applications can lead to increased side reactions and potential structural instability. To address these issues, we propose a solvent-induced self-assembly method for obtaining high nitrogen-containing multi-cavity MCSs with reduced SSA. The morphology and SSA of the nanospheres can be precisely adjusted by regulating the reaction time. Introducing an amine-phenol bridging structure into the polymer system significantly bolsters the structural and morphological stability of the mesoporous materials. The performance of these novel nanospheres in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) is remarkable, exhibiting excellent sodium storage capability and exceptional ultra-long cycle stability. At a rate of 0.1 A g-1, the nanospheres achieved a high reversible capacity of 252 mAh g-1, and even after 20,000 cycles at 5 A g-1, a specific capacity of 136 mAh g-1 was retained. In summary, our study presents a novel approach for synthesizing mesoporous carbon materials and offers valuable insights for sodium storage research, opening new possibilities for enhancing energy storage applications.

Abstract
The active site accessibility and high loading of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are key factors affecting the catalytic activity of supported AuNP-based catalysts. However, the preparation of supported AuNP-based catalysts with highly accessible active sites still remains a challenge. Herein, sphere-on-sphere (SoS) silica microspheres with a hierarchical structure, good dispersion and high surface density of thiol groups (10 SH nm-2) are prepared and used as a platform for the growth of high-density AuNPs. The obtained hierarchical Si@Au micro-/nanostructure consisting of 0.55 μm SoS silica microspheres and 7.3 nm AuNPs (SoS-0.55@Au-7.3) is found to show excellent peroxidase-mimicking activity (Km = 0.033 mM and Vmax = 34.6 × 10-8 M s-1) with merits of high stability and good reusability. Furthermore, the as-obtained SoS-0.55@Au-7.3-based system can sensitively detect hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with a low detection limit of 1.6 μM and a wide linear range from 2.5 μM to 1.0 mM. The high catalytic activity, excellent stability and good reusability of SoS-0.55@Au-7.3 imply its great prospects in biosensing and biomedical analysis.

Abstract
Drug-releasing contact lenses are emerging therapeutic systems for treating ocular diseases. However, their applicability is limited by the burst release of drugs during lens wear and premature drug leakage during packaging, rendering the precise control of release duration or dose difficult. Here, we introduce a pH-sensitive contact lens exhibiting on-demand drug release only during lens wear and negligible premature drug leakage during packaging and transportation, which is accomplished by incorporating drug-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) coated with a pH-sensitive polymer into the contact lens. The compositionally optimized pH-sensitive polymer has a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) at >45 °C at pH 7.4, whereas its LCST decreases to <35 °C under acidic conditions (pH ∼ 6.5). Consequently, the MSN-incorporated contact lens sustainably releases the loaded drugs only in the acidic state at 35 °C, which corresponds to lens-wear conditions, through the MSN pores that open because of the shrinkage of polymer chains. Conversely, negligible drug leakage is observed from the contact lens under low-temperature or neutral-pH conditions corresponding to packaging and transportation. Furthermore, compared with the plain contact lens, the pH-sensitive contact lens exhibits good biocompatibility and unchanged bulk characteristics, such as optical (transmittance in the visible-light region), mechanical (elastic modulus and tensile strength), and physical (surface roughness, oxygen permeability, and water content) properties. These findings suggest that the pH-sensitive contact lens can be potentially applied in ocular disease treatment.

Abstract
Bacterial pneumonia is the leading cause of death worldwide among all infectious diseases. However, currently available vaccines against fatal bacterial lung infections, e.g., pneumonic plague, are accompanied by limitations, including insufficient antigen-adjuvant co-delivery and inadequate immune stimulation. Therefore, there is an urgent requirement to develop next-generation vaccines to improve the interaction between antigen and adjuvant, as well as enhance the effects of immune stimulation. This study develops a novel amino-decorated mesoporous manganese silicate nanoparticle (AMMSN) loaded with rF1-V10 (rF1-V10@AMMSN) to prevent pneumonic plague. These results suggest that subcutaneous immunization with rF1-V10@AMMSN in a prime-boost strategy induces robust production of rF1-V10-specific IgG antibodies with a geometric mean titer of 315,844 at day 42 post-primary immunization, which confers complete protection to mice against 50 × LD50 of Yersinia pestis (Y. pestis) challenge via the aerosolized intratracheal route. Mechanistically, rF1-V10@AMMSN can be taken up by dendritic cells (DCs) and promote DCs maturation through activation of the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway and production of type I interferon. This process results in enhanced antigen presentation and promotes rF1-V10-mediated protection against Y. pestis infection. This manganese-based nanoparticle vaccine represents a valuable strategy for combating fatal bacterial pneumonia.

Abstract
5-hydroxymethylfurfural represents a key chemical in the drive towards a sustainable circular economy within the chemical industry. The final step in 5-hydroxymethylfurfural production is the acid catalysed dehydration of fructose, for which supported organoacids are excellent potential catalyst candidates. Here we report a range of solid acid catalysis based on sulphonic acid grafted onto different porous silica nanosphere architectures, as confirmed by TEM, N2 porosimetry, XPS and ATR-IR. All four catalysts display enhanced active site normalised activity and productivity, relative to alternative silica supported equivalent systems in the literature, with in-pore diffusion of both substrate and product key to both performance and humin formation pathway. An increase in-pore diffusion coefficient of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural within wormlike and stellate structures results in optimal productivity. In contrast, poor diffusion within a raspberry-like morphology decreases rates of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural production and increases its consumption within humin formation.

Abstract
Silica nanoparticles (SNP) have gained tremendous attention in the recent decades. They have been used in many different biomedical fields including diagnosis, biosensing and drug delivery. Medical uses of SNP for anti-cancer, anti-microbial and theranostic applications are especially prominent due to their exceptional performance to deliver many different small molecules and recently biologics (mRNA, siRNA, antigens, antibodies, proteins, and peptides) at targeted sites. The physical and chemical properties of SNP such as large specific surface area, tuneable particle size and porosity, excellent biodegradability and biocompatibility make them an ideal drug delivery and diagnostic platform. Based on the available data and the pre-clinical performance of SNP, recent interest has driven these innovative materials towards clinical application with many of the formulations already in Phase I and Phase II trials. Herein, the progress of SNP in biomedical field is reviewed, and their safety aspects are analysed. Importantly, we critically evaluate the key structural characteristics of SNP to overcome different biological barriers including the blood-brain barrier (BBB), skin, tumour barrier and mucosal barrier. Future directions, potential pathways, and target areas towards rapid clinical translation of SNP are also recommended.

Abstract
The promise of regeneration therapy for restoration of damaged myocardium after cardiac ischemic injury relies on targeted delivery of proliferative molecules into cardiomyocytes whose healing benefits are still limited owing to severe immune microenvironment due to local high concentration of proinflammatory cytokines. Optimal therapeutic strategies are therefore in urgent need to both modulate local immunity and deliver proliferative molecules. Here, we addressed this unmet need by developing neutrophil-mimic nanoparticles NM@miR, fabricated by coating hybrid neutrophil membranes with artificial lipids onto mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) loaded with microRNA-10b. The hybrid membrane could endow nanoparticles with strong capacity to migrate into inflammatory sites and neutralize proinflammatory cytokines and increase the delivery efficiency of microRNA-10b into adult mammalian cardiomyocytes (CMs) by fusing with cell membranes and leading to the release of MSNs-miR into cytosol. Upon NM@miR administration, this nanoparticle could home to the injured myocardium, restore the local immunity, and efficiently deliver microRNA-10b to cardiomyocytes, which could reduce the activation of Hippo-YAP pathway mediated by excessive cytokines and exert the best proliferative effect of miR-10b. This combination therapy could finally improve cardiac function and mitigate ventricular remodeling. Consequently, this work offers a combination strategy of immunity modulation and proliferative molecule delivery to boost cardiac regeneration after injury.

Abstract
Mononuclear phagocytes (MPs) are vital components of host immune defenses against cancer. However, tumor-infiltrating MPs often present tolerogenic and pro-tumorigenic phenotypes via metabolic switching triggered by excessive lipid accumulation in solid tumors. Inspired by viral infection-mediated MP modulation, here enveloped immunometabolic nanoparticles (immeNPs) are designed to co-deliver a viral RNA analog and a fatty acid oxidation regulator for synergistic reshaping of intratumoral MPs. These immeNPs are camouflaged with cancer cell membranes for tumor homing and opsonized with anti-CD163 antibodies for specific MP recognition and uptake. It is found that internalized immeNPs coordinate lipid metabolic reprogramming with innate immune stimulation, inducing M2-to-M1 macrophage repolarization and tolerogenic-to-immunogenic dendritic cell differentiation for cytotoxic T cell infiltration. The authors further demonstrate that the use of immeNPs confers susceptibility to anti-PD-1 therapy in immune checkpoint blockade-resistant breast and ovarian tumors, and thereby provide a promising strategy to expand the potential of conventional immunotherapy.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are recognized as a prime example of nanotechnology applied in the biomedical field, due to their easily tunable structure and composition, diverse surface functionalization properties, and excellent biocompatibility. Over the past two decades, researchers have developed a wide variety of MSNs-based nanoplatforms through careful design and controlled preparation techniques, demonstrating their adaptability to various biomedical application scenarios. With the continuous breakthroughs of MSNs in the fields of biosensing, disease diagnosis and treatment, tissue engineering, etc., MSNs are gradually moving from basic research to clinical trials. In this review, we provide a detailed summary of MSNs in the biomedical field, beginning with a comprehensive overview of their development history. We then discuss the types of MSNs-based nanostructured architectures, as well as the classification of MSNs-based nanocomposites according to the elements existed in various inorganic functional components. Subsequently, we summarize the primary purposes of surface-functionalized modifications of MSNs. In the following, we discuss the biomedical applications of MSNs, and highlight the MSNs-based targeted therapeutic modalities currently developed. Given the importance of clinical translation, we also summarize the progress of MSNs in clinical trials. Finally, we take a perspective on the future direction and remaining challenges of MSNs in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Equipped with hierarchical pores and three-dimensional (3D) center-radial channels, dendritic mesoporous nanoparticles (DMNs) make their pore volumes extremely large, specific surface areas super-high, internal spaces especially accessible, and so on. Other entities (like organic moieties or nanoparticles) can be modified onto the interfaces or skeletons of DMNs, accomplishing their functionalization for desirable applications. This comprehensive review emphasizes on the design and construction of DMNs-based systems which serve as sensors, adsorbents and catalysts for the detection, adsorption, and degradation of hazardous substances, mainly including the construction procedures of brand-new DMNs-based materials and the involved hazardous substances (like industrial chemicals, chemical dyes, heavy metal ions, medicines, pesticides, and harmful gases). The sensitive, adsorptive, or catalytic performances of various DMNs have been compared; correspondingly, the reaction mechanisms have been revealed strictly. It is honestly anticipated that the profound discussion could offer scientists certain enlightenment to design novel DMNs-based systems towards the detection, adsorption, and degradation of hazardous substances, respectively or comprehensively.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence immunoassay exhibits high sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio, thus attracting great attention in the early diagnosis and dynamic monitoring of diseases. However, the collection of conventional flash-type chemiluminescence signal (<5 s) relies heavily on automatic sampling and reading instrument. Herein, a novel core-satellite multifunctional chemiluminescence immunosensor is designed for the efficient enrichment and highly sensitive determination of cancer biomarker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) with enhanced and long-lasting output signal that can be conveniently recorded by a simple microplate plate reading instrument. Anti-CEA monoclonal antibody 2 (Ab2) modified Fe3 O4 @SiO2 microspheres (Fe3 O4 @SiO2 -Ab2, 370 nm in diameter) are synthesized as the core for selectively capturing and enriching target CEA in solution, and anti-human CEA monoclonal antibody 1 (Ab1) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) co-immobilized dendritic large-mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs-HRP/Ab1, 80 nm in diameter, pore size: 17 nm) are synthesized as the satellite for efficient immunological recognition and signal amplification. The as-designed core-satellite magnetic chemiluminescence immunosensors exhibit a broad linear range of 0.01-20 ng mL-1 and a low detection limit of 3.0 pg mL-1 for the convenient, highly specific, and sensitive determination of CEA in human serum. Such core-satellite chemiluminescence immunosensors are expected to act as a powerful tool for in vitro detection of various biomarkers, overcome the defect of conventional chemiluminescence relying heavily on expensive and bulky automatic instruments and popularize chemiluminescence analysis to primary medical institutions and remote areas.

Deep Learning-Predicted Dihydroartemisinin Rescues Osteoporosis by Maintaining Mesenchymal Stem Cell Stemness through Activating Histone 3 Lys 9 Acetylation. ACS CENTRAL SCIENCE 2023; 9:1927-1943.

Abstract
Maintaining the stemness of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) is crucial for bone homeostasis and regeneration. However, in vitro expansion and bone diseases impair BMMSC stemness, limiting its functionality in bone tissue engineering. Using a deep learning-based efficacy prediction system and bone tissue sequencing, we identify a natural small-molecule compound, dihydroartemisinin (DHA), that maintains BMMSC stemness and enhances bone regeneration. During long-term in vitro expansion, DHA preserves BMMSC stemness characteristics, including its self-renewal ability and unbiased differentiation. In an osteoporosis mouse model, oral administration of DHA restores the femur trabecular structure, bone density, and BMMSC stemness in situ. Mechanistically, DHA maintains BMMSC stemness by promoting histone 3 lysine 9 acetylation via GCN5 activation both in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, the bone-targeted delivery of DHA by mesoporous silica nanoparticles improves its therapeutic efficacy in osteoporosis. Collectively, DHA could be a promising therapeutic agent for treating osteoporosis by maintaining BMMSC stemness.

Abstract
Immunotherapy has revolutionized the field of cancer treatment through invigorating robust antitumor immune response. Here, we report the development of a therapeutic vaccine [consisting of high mobility group nucleosome-binding protein 1 (HMGN1), resiquimod/R848, and anti-PD-L1 (αPD-L1)]-loaded reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN@TheraVac) for curative therapy of colon cancer. In MSN@TheraVac, αPD-L1 conjugated onto the surface of MSNs via a diselenide bond, which can be rapidly released under the oxidative condition of the tumor microenvironment to avert immunosuppression and effector T cell exhaustion while coloaded HMGN1 and R848 would cooperatively trigger robust tumor-infiltrating dendritic cell (TiDC) maturation and elicitation of antitumor immune responses. Indeed, MSN@TheraVac induced the maturation and activation of dendritic cells (DCs) by promoting the surface expression of CD80, CD86, and CD103 as well as the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including TNFα, IL-12, and IL-1β. Importantly, treatment with intravenous MSN@TheraVac led to a complete cure of 100% of BALB/c mice bearing large colon tumors and induced the generation of tumor-specific protective memory without apparent toxicity. Thus, MSN@TheraVac provides a timely release of TheraVac for the curative treatment of colon tumors and holds potential for translation into a clinical therapy for patients with immunologically "cold" colorectal cancers. This ROS-responsive MSN platform may also be tailored for the selective delivery of other cancer vaccines for effective immunotherapy.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have attracted the attention of chemists, who have developed numerous systems for the encapsulation of a plethora of molecules, allowing the use of mesoporous silica nanoparticles for biomedical applications. MSNs have been extensively studied for their use in nanomedicine, in applications such as drug delivery, diagnosis, and bioimaging, demonstrating significant in vivo efficacy in different preclinical models. Nevertheless, for the transition of MSNs into clinical trials, it is imperative to understand the characteristics that make MSNs effective and safe. The biosafety properties of MSNs in vivo are greatly influenced by their physicochemical characteristics such as particle shape, size, surface modification, and silica framework. In this review, we compile the most relevant and recent progress in the literature up to the present by analyzing the contributions on biodistribution, biodegradability, and clearance of MSNs. Furthermore, the ongoing clinical trials and the potential challenges related to the administration of silica materials for advanced therapeutics are discussed. This approach aims to provide a solid overview of the state-of-the-art in this field and to encourage the translation of MSNs to the clinic.

Abstract
The major stumbling block in the implementation of oxidoreductase enzymes in continuous processes is their stark dependence on costly cofactors that are insoluble in organic solvents. We describe a chemical strategy that allows producing nanobiocatalysts, based on an oxidoreductase enzyme, that performs biocatalytic reactions in hydrophobic organic solvents without external cofactors. The chemical design relies on the use of a silica-based carrier nanoparticle, of which the porosity can be exploited to create an aqueous reservoir containing the cofactor. The nanoparticle core, possessing radial-centred pore channels, serves as a cofactor reservoir. It is further covered with a layer of reduced porosity. This layer serves as a support for the immobilisation of the selected enzyme yet allowing the diffusion of the cofactor from the nanoparticle core. The immobilised enzyme is, in turn, shielded by an organosilica layer of controlled thickness fully covering the enzyme. Such produced nanobiocatalysts are shown to catalyse the reduction of a series of relevant ketones into the corresponding secondary alcohols, also in a continuous flow fashion.

Abstract
Owing to their uniform and tunable particle size, pore size, and shape, along with their modular surface chemistry and biocompatibility, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have found extensive applications as nanocarriers to deliver therapeutic, diagnostic and combined "theranostic" cargos to cells and tissues. Although thoroughly investigated, MSN have garnered FDA approval for only one MSN system via oral administration. One possible reason is that there is no recognized, reproducible, and widely adopted MSN synthetic protocol, meaning not all MSNs are created equal in the laboratory nor in the eyes of the FDA. This manuscript provides the sol-gel and MSN research communities a reproducible, fully characterized synthetic protocol to synthesize MSNs and corresponding lipid-coated MSN delivery vehicles with predetermined particle size, pore size, and drug loading and release characteristics. By carefully articulating the step-by-step synthetic procedures and highlighting critical points and troubleshooting, augmented with videos and schematics, this Article will help researchers entering this rapidly expanding field to yield reliable results.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanospheres have demonstrated great potential as important components in nanomedicine for cancer imaging and therapy. One of the major obstacles that impedes their application is the slow degradation of ingested Fe3O4 nanospheres, which potentially causes long-term health risks. To tackle this issue, we proposed to fabricate Fe3O4 nanospheres with mesoporous structure via a simple self-template etching method. The mesoporous Fe3O4 nanospheres not only offered large specific surface area and weak-acidic responsive degradability, but also exhibited T2-weighted magnetic resonance contrast enhancement and magnetic targeting, which made them possible to serve as excellent cancer therapeutic nanoplatform. Both inorganic photothermal therapeutic Au nanoparticles and organic chemotherapeutic doxorubicin hydrochloride were demonstrated to be successfully loaded onto such kind of nanoplatform, and the hybrid nanomedicine demonstrated synergistic photothermal and chemotherapeutic activity for tumor elimination under near infrared irradiation and improved biodegradability in weak acidic tumor microenvironment. We believe that this study paved a simple way for designing multifunctional Fe3O4-based biodegradable nanomedicine.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle disease severity can often progress asymmetrically across muscle groups and heterogeneously within tissues. An example is Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) in which lack of dystrophin results in devastating skeletal muscle wasting in some muscles whereas others are spared or undergo hypertrophy. An efficient, non-invasive approach to identify sites of asymmetry and degenerative lesions could enable better patient monitoring and therapeutic targeting of disease. In this study, we utilized a versatile intravenously injectable mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSNP) based nanocarrier system to explore mechanisms of biodistribution in skeletal muscle of mdx mouse models of DMD including wildtype, dystrophic, and severely dystrophic mice. Moreover, MSNPs could be imaged in live mice and whole muscle tissues enabling investigation of how biodistribution is altered by different types of muscle pathology such as inflammation or fibrosis. We found MSNPs were tenfold more likely to aggregate within select mdx muscles relative to wild type, such as gastrocnemius and quadriceps. This was accompanied by decreased biodistribution in off-target organs. We found the greatest factor affecting preferential delivery was the regenerative state of the dystrophic skeletal muscle with the highest MSNP abundance coinciding with the regions showing the highest level of embryonic myosin staining and intramuscular macrophage uptake. To demonstrate, muscle regeneration regulated MSNP distribution, we experimentally induced regeneration using barium chloride which resulted in a threefold increase of intravenously injected MSNPs to sites of regeneration 7 days after injury. These discoveries provide the first evidence that nanoparticles have selective biodistribution to skeletal muscle in DMD to areas of active regeneration and that nanoparticles could enable diagnostic and selective drug delivery in DMD skeletal muscle.

Abstract
The filler/resin matrix interface interaction plays a vital role in the properties of dental resin composites (DRCs). Porous particles are promising fillers due to their potential in constructing micromechanical interlocking at filler/resin matrix interfaces, therefore improving the properties of the resulting DRCs, where the pore size is significantly important. However, how to control the pore size of porous particles via a simple synthesis method is still a challenge, and how their pore sizes affect the properties of resulting DRCs has not been studied. In this study, porous silica (DPS) with a dendritic structure and an adjustable pore size was synthesized by changing the amounts of catalyst in the initial microemulsion. These synthesized DPS particles were directly used as unimodal fillers and mixed with a resin matrix to formulate DRCs. The results showed that the DPS pore size affects the properties of DRCs, especially the mechanical property. Among various DPS particles with different pore sizes, DPS6 resulted in 19.5% and 31.4% improvement in flexural strength, and 24.4% and 30.7% enhancement in compression strength, respectively, compared to DPS1 and DPS9. These DPS particles could help to design novel dental restorative materials and have promising applications in biomedicine, catalysis, and adsorption.

Abstract
For photocatalytic CO2 reduction to produce syngas, there are challenges in achieving a high catalytic efficiency and precise control over the product ratio. In this study, two non-noble metal complexes Cobpy and Cubpy (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) as cocatalysts for CO2 reduction and hydrogen evolution, respectively, were in situ supported on carbon nitride hollow nanospheres to construct a hybrid system for photocatalytic syngas production. The resulting CO/H2 ratio can be precisely regulated within a wide range of 0:1-9:1 by accurately controlling the content of the two complexes. The presence of the two complexes promotes the migration of photogenerated electrons of the carbon nitride. CO2 can be reduced to CO on the photoreduced species Co(bpy)2+ of Cobpy on CNHS, and H+ can be reduced to H2 on the photoreduced species Cu(bpy)2+ of Cubpy. Furthermore, this method is also applicable to other photocatalysts, such as CdS and TiO2 for generating syngas and regulating product ratios.

Abstract
Contamination of water sources by toxic antimony Sb(III) ions poses a threat to clean water supplies. In this regard, we have prepared a mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN)-derived adsorbent by reverse microemulsion polymerization, using cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) and triethanolamine (TEA) as co-templates. The physical and chemical properties were characterized using advanced tools. The MSN exhibits a higher surface area of up to 713.72 m2·g-1, a pore volume of 1.02 cm3·g-1, and a well-ordered mesoporous nanostructure with an average pore size of 4.02 nm. The MSN has a high adsorption capacity for toxic Sb(III) of 27.96 mg·g-1 at pH 6.0 and 298 K. The adsorption data followed the Langmuir isotherm, while the kinetics of adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order model. Interestingly, the effect of coexisting iron showed a promoting effect on Sb(III) uptake, while the presence of manganese slightly inhibited the adsorption process. The recyclability of the MSN adsorbent was achieved using a 0.5 M HCl eluent and reused consecutively for three cycles with a more than 50% removal efficiency. Moreover, the characterization data and batch adsorption study indicated physical adsorption of Sb(III) by mesopores and chemical adsorption due to silicon hydroxyl groups.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a powerful mycotoxin present in a variety of food products, and its detection is important for human health. Here, a fluorescent aptasensor is reported for sensitive OTA determination. Specifically, the surface of bio-inspired passion fruit-like dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres-enriched quantum dots (MSNQs-apt) was first modified with the OTA aptamer as the recognition unit and fluorescence emitter, while the aptamer-complementary DNA (MNPs-cDNA) was linked with the magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as the separation element. In the range of 2.56 pg/mL to 8 ng/mL, the proposed aptasensor exhibited satisfactory linearity and a detection limit of 1.402 pg/mL. The developed aptasensor achieved recoveries of 90.98-103.20% and 94.33-107.57 % in red wine and wheat flour samples, respectively. By simply replacing the aptamer, this aptasensor can be easily extended to detection of other analytes, suggesting its potential as a universal detection platform for mycotoxins in food products.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE the study was to find a suitable treatment for acute drug-induced liver injury. The use of nanocarriers can improve the therapeutic effect of natural drugs by targeting hepatocytes and higher loads. METHODS firstly, uniformly dispersed three-dimensional dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs) were synthesized. Glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) was covalently modified on MSN surfaces through amide bond and then loaded with COSM to form drug-loaded nanoparticles (COSM@MSN-NH2-GA). The constructed drug-loaded nano-delivery system was determined by characterization analysis. Finally, the effect of nano-drug particles on cell viability was evaluated and the cell uptake in vitro was observed. RESULTS GA was successfully modified to obtain the spherical nano-carrier MSN-NH2-GA (≤200 nm). The neutral surface charge improves its biocompatibility. MSN-NH2-GA has high drug loading (28.36% ± 1.00) because of its suitable specific surface area and pore volume. In vitro cell experiments showed that COSM@MSN-NH2-GA significantly enhanced the uptake of liver cells (LO2) and decreased the AST and ALT indexes. CONCLUSION this study demonstrated for the first time that formulation and delivery schemes using natural drug COSM and nanocarrier MSN have a protective effect on APAP-induced hepatocyte injury. This result provides a potential nano-delivery scheme for the targeted therapy of acute drug-induced liver injury.

Abstract
Biomedical micro/nanorobots as active delivery systems with the features of self-propulsion and controllable navigation have made tremendous progress in disease therapy and diagnosis, detection, and biodetoxification. However, existing micro/nanorobots are still suffering from complex drug loading, physiological drug stability, and uncontrollable drug release. To solve these problems, micro/nanorobots and nanocatalytic medicine as two independent research fields were integrated in this study to achieve self-propulsion-induced deeper tumor penetration and catalytic reaction-initiated tumor therapy in vivo. We presented self-propelled Janus nanocatalytic robots (JNCRs) guided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for in vivo enhanced tumor therapy. These JNCRs exhibited active movement in H2O2 solution, and their migration in the tumor tissue could be tracked by non-invasive MRI in real time. Both increased temperature and reactive oxygen species production were induced by near-infrared light irradiation and iron-mediated Fenton reaction, showing great potential for tumor photothermal and chemodynamic therapy. In comparison with passive nanoparticles, these self-propelled JNCRs enabled deeper tumor penetration and enhanced tumor therapy after intratumoral injection. Importantly, these robots with biocompatible components and byproducts exhibited biosecurity in the mouse model. It is expected that our work could promote the combination of micro/nanorobots and nanocatalytic medicine, resulting in improved tumor therapy and potential clinical transformations.

Abstract
The development and production of innovative protein-based therapeutics is a complex and challenging avenue. External conditions such as buffers, solvents, pH, salts, polymers, surfactants, and nanoparticles may affect the stability and integrity of proteins during formulation. In this study, poly (ethylene imine) (PEI) functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were used as a carrier for the model protein bovine serum albumin (BSA). To protect the protein inside MSNs after loading, polymeric encapsulation with poly (sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (NaPSS) was used to seal the pores. Nano differential scanning fluorimetry (NanoDSF) was used to assess protein thermal stability during the formulation process. The MSN-PEI carrier matrix or conditions used did not destabilize the protein during loading, but the coating polymer NaPSS was incompatible with the NanoDSF technique due to autofluorescence. Thus, another pH-responsive polymer, spermine-modified acetylated dextran (SpAcDEX), was applied as a second coating after NaPSS. It possessed low autofluorescence and was successfully evaluated with the NanoDSF method. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy was used to determine protein integrity in the case of interfering polymers such as NaPSS. Despite this limitation, NanoDSF was found to be a feasible and rapid tool to monitor protein stability during all steps needed to create a viable nanocarrier system for protein delivery.

Abstract
Fluorescence-based PCR and other amplification methods have been used for SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics, however, it requires costly fluorescence detectors and probes limiting deploying large-scale screening. Here, a cut-price colorimetric method for SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection by iron manganese silicate nanozyme (IMSN) is established. IMSN catalyzes the oxidation of chromogenic substrates by its peroxidase (POD)-like activity, which is effectively inhibited by pyrophosphate ions (PPi). Due to the large number of PPi generated by amplification processes, SARS-CoV-2 RNA can be detected by a colorimetric readout visible to the naked eye, with the detection limit of 240 copies mL-1 . This conceptually new method has been successfully applied to correctly distinguish positive and negative oropharyngeal swab samples of COVID-19. Colorimetric assay provides a low-cost and instrumental-free solution for nucleic acid detection, which holds great potential for facilitating virus surveillance.

Abstract
The ability of Janus nanoparticles to establish biological logic systems has been widely exploited, yet conventional non/uni-porous Janus nanoparticles are unable to fully mimic biological communications. Here we demonstrate an emulsion-oriented assembly approach for the fabrication of highly uniform Janus double-spherical MSN&mPDA (MSN, mesoporous silica nanoparticle; mPDA, mesoporous polydopamine) nanoparticles. The delicate Janus nanoparticle possesses a spherical MSN with a diameter of ~150 nm and an mPDA hemisphere with a diameter of ~120 nm. In addition, the mesopore size in the MSN compartment is tunable from ~3 to ~25 nm, while those in the mPDA compartments range from ~5 to ~50 nm. Due to the different chemical properties and mesopore sizes in the two compartments, we achieve selective loading of guests in different compartments, and successfully establish single-particle-level biological logic gates. The dual-mesoporous structure enables consecutive valve-opening and matter-releasing reactions within one single nanoparticle, facilitating the design of single-particle-level logic systems.

Abstract
Chiral mesoporous silica (mSiO2) nanomaterials have gained significant attention during the past two decades. Most of them show a topologically characteristic helix; however, little attention has been paid to the molecular-scale chirality of mSiO2 frameworks. Herein, we report a chiral amide-gel-directed synthesis strategy for the fabrication of chiral mSiO2 nanospheres with molecular-scale-like chirality in the silicate skeletons. The functionalization of micelles with the chiral amide gels via electrostatic interactions realizes the growth of molecular configuration chiral silica sols. Subsequent modular self-assembly results in the formation of dendritic large mesoporous silica nanospheres with molecular chirality of the silica frameworks. As a result, the resultant chiral mSiO2 nanospheres show abundant large mesopores (∼10.1 nm), high pore volumes (∼1.8 cm3·g-1), high surface areas (∼525 m2·g-1), and evident CD activity. The successful transfer of the chirality from the chiral amide gels to composited micelles and further to asymmetric silica polymeric frameworks based on modular self-assembly leads to the presence of molecular chirality in the final products. The chiral mSiO2 frameworks display a good chiral stability after a high-temperature calcination (even up to 1000 °C). The chiral mSiO2 can impart a notable decline in β-amyloid protein (Aβ42) aggregation formation up to 79%, leading to significant mitigation of Aβ42-induced cytotoxicity on the human neuroblastoma line SH-ST5Y cells in vitro. This finding opens a new avenue to construct the molecular chirality configuration in nanomaterials for optical and biomedical applications.

Abstract
The so-called "hard-to-transfect cells" are well-known to present great challenges to intracellular delivery, but detailed understandings of the delivery behaviors are lacking. Recently, we discovered that vesicle trapping is a likely bottleneck of delivery into a type of hard-to-transfect cells, namely, bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Driven by this insight, herein, we screened various vesicle trapping-reducing methods on BMSCs. Most of these methods failed in BMSCs, although they worked well in HeLa cells. In stark contrast, coating nanoparticles with a specific form of poly(disulfide) (called PDS1) nearly completely circumvented vesicle trapping in BMSCs, by direct cell membrane penetration mediated by thiol-disulfide exchange. Further, in BMSCs, PDS1-coated nanoparticles dramatically enhanced the transfection efficiency of plasmids of fluorescent proteins and substantially improved osteoblastic differentiation. In addition, mechanistic studies suggested that higher cholesterol content in plasma membranes of BMSCs might be a molecular-level reason for the greater difficulty of vesicle escape in BMSCs.

Abstract
Although mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been intensively investigated, their mesostructure and formation mechanism are still a topic of debate. Here, we show that MSNS are generated at the interface of the biphasic water-surfactant-triethanolamine-tetraalkoxysilane (TAOS) quaternary system. The spontaneous microemulsification of the hydrophobic TAOS generates microdroplets and direct micelles that both determine the particle size and the pore size. We confirmed also that the dendritic morphology with conical pores is an intermediate species, which readily transforms into regular MSNs concomitantly with the collapse of the microemulsion due to the continuous consumption of TAOS. The prominent effect of the microemulsion on the mechanism growth as a primary template is thoroughly investigated and named here tetraalkoxysilane-assisted self-emulsification templating.

Parishin A-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles modulate macrophage polarization to attenuate tendinopathy. NPJ Regen Med 2023; 8:14. [PMID: 36899012 PMCID: PMC10006208 DOI: 10.1038/s41536-023-00289-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Macrophages are involved mainly in the balance between inflammation and tenogenesis during the healing process of tendinopathy. However, etiological therapeutic strategies to efficiently treat tendinopathy by modulating macrophage state are still lacking. In this study, we find that a small molecule compound Parishin-A (PA) isolated from Gastrodia elata could promote anti-inflammatory M2 macrophage polarization by inhibiting gene transcription and protein phosphorylation of signal transducers and activators of transcription 1. Local injection or sustained delivery of PA by mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) could almost recover the native tendon's dense parallel-aligned collagen matrix in collagenase-induced tendinopathy by modulating macrophage-mediated immune microenvironment and preventing heterotopic ossification. Especially, MSNs decrease doses of PA, frequency of injection and yield preferable therapeutic effects. Mechanistically, intervention with PA could indirectly inhibit activation of mammalian target of rapamycin to repress chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation of tendon stem/progenitor cells by influencing macrophage inflammatory cytokine secretion. Together, pharmacological intervention with a natural small-molecule compound to modulate macrophage status appears to be a promising strategy for tendinopathy treatment.

Abstract
Nanopesticides are considered to be a promising alternative strategy for enhancing bioactivity and delaying the development of pathogen resistance to pesticides. Here, a new type of nanosilica fungicide was proposed and demonstrated to control late blight by inducing intracellular peroxidation damage to Phytophthora infestans, the pathogen associated with potato late blight. Results indicated that the structural features of different silica nanoparticles were largely responsible for their antimicrobial activities. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) exhibited the highest antimicrobial activity with a 98.02% inhibition rate of P. infestans, causing oxidative stress responses and cell structure damage in P. infestans. For the first time, MSNs were found to selectively induce spontaneous excess production of intracellular reactive oxygen species in pathogenic cells, including hydroxyl radicals (•OH), superoxide radicals (•O2-), and singlet oxygen (1O2), leading to peroxidation damage in P. infestans. The effectiveness of MSNs was further tested in the pot experiments as well as leaf and tuber infection, and successful control of potato late blight was achieved with high plant compatibility and safety. This work provides new insights into the antimicrobial mechanism of nanosilica and highlights the use of nanoparticles for controlling late blight with green and highly efficient nanofungicides.
