Abstract
Targeted protein degradation (TPD) has emerged as a revolutionary paradigm in drug discovery and development, offering a promising avenue to tackle challenging therapeutic targets. Unlike traditional drug discovery approaches that focus on inhibiting protein function, TPD aims to eliminate proteins of interest (POIs) using modular chimeric structures. This is achieved through the utilization of proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs), which redirect POIs to E3 ubiquitin ligases, rendering them for degradation by the cellular ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). Additionally, other TPD technologies such as lysosome-targeting chimeras (LYTACs) and autophagy-based protein degraders facilitate the transportation of proteins to endo-lysosomal or autophagy-lysosomal pathways for degradation, respectively. Despite significant growth in preclinical TPD research, many chimeras fail to progress beyond this stage in the drug development. Various factors contribute to the limited success of TPD agents, including a significant hurdle of inadequate delivery to the target site. Integrating TPD into delivery platforms could surmount the challenges of in vivo applications of TPD strategies by reshaping their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic profiles. These proteolysis-targeting drug delivery systems (ProDDSs) exhibit superior delivery performance, enhanced targetability, and reduced off-tissue side effects. In this review, we will survey the latest progress in TPD-inspired drug delivery systems, highlight the importance of introducing delivery ideas or technologies to the development of protein degraders, outline design principles of protein degrader-inspired delivery systems, discuss the current challenges, and provide an outlook on future opportunities in this field.

[PMID: 38322664 PMCID: PMC10844134 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.100957] [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: 10/20/2023] [Revised: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) and its associated poor prognosis pose significant risks to human health. Nanomaterials hold great potential for the treatment of MI due to their targeted and controlled release properties, particularly biomimetic nanomaterials. The utilization of biomimetic strategies based on extracellular vesicles (EVs) and cell membranes will serve as the guiding principle for the development of nanomaterial therapy in the future. In this review, we present an overview of research progress on various exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells, cardiomyocytes, or induced pluripotent stem cells in the context of myocardial infarction (MI) therapy. These exosomes, utilized as cell-free therapies, have demonstrated the ability to enhance the efficacy of reducing the size of the infarcted area and preventing ischaemic reperfusion through mechanisms such as oxidative stress reduction, polarization modulation, fibrosis inhibition, and angiogenesis promotion. Moreover, EVs can exert cardioprotective effects by encapsulating therapeutic agents and can be engineered to specifically target the infarcted myocardium. Furthermore, we discuss the use of cell membranes derived from erythrocytes, stem cells, immune cells and platelets to encapsulate nanomaterials. This approach allows the nanomaterials to camouflage themselves as endogenous substances targeting the region affected by MI, thereby minimizing toxicity and improving biocompatibility. In conclusion, biomimetic nano-delivery systems hold promise as a potentially beneficial technology for MI treatment. This review serves as a valuable reference for the application of biomimetic nanomaterials in MI therapy and aims to expedite the translation of NPs-based MI therapeutic strategies into practical clinical applications.

Abstract
Nano-delivery systems have demonstrated great promise in the therapy of cancer. However, the therapeutic efficacy of conventional nanomedicines is hindered by the clearance of the blood circulation system and the physiological barriers surrounding the tumor. Inspired by the unique capabilities of cells within the body, such as immune evasion, prolonged circulation, and tumor-targeting, there has been a growing interest in developing cell membrane biomimetic nanomedicine delivery systems. Cell membrane modification on nanoparticle surfaces can prolong circulation time, activate tumor-targeting, and ultimately improve the efficacy of cancer treatment. It shows excellent development potential. This review will focus on the advancements in various cell membrane nano-drug delivery systems for cancer therapy and the obstacles encountered during clinical implementation. It is hoped that such discussions will inspire the development of cell membrane biomimetic nanomedical systems.

Abstract
Immunomodulation is a powerful therapeutic approach that harnesses the body's own immune system and reprograms it to treat diseases, such as cancer. Innate immunity is key in mobilizing the rest of the immune system to respond to disease and is thus an attractive target for immunomodulation. Biomaterials have widely been employed as vehicles to deliver immunomodulatory therapeutic cargo to immune cells and raise robust antitumor immunity. However, it is key to consider the design of biomaterial chemical and physical structure, as it has direct impacts on innate immune activation and antigen presentation to stimulate downstream adaptive immunity. Herein, we highlight the widespread importance of structure-driven biomaterial design for the delivery of immunomodulatory cargo to innate immune cells. The incorporation of precise structural elements can be harnessed to improve delivery kinetics, uptake, and the targeting of biomaterials into innate immune cells, and enhance immune activation against cancer through temporal and spatial processing of cargo to overcome the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Structural design of immunomodulatory biomaterials will profoundly improve the efficacy of current cancer immunotherapies by maximizing the impact of the innate immune system and thus has far-reaching translational potential against other diseases.

Abstract
Mechanobiology is a cornerstone in physiology. However, its role in biomedical applications remains considerably undermined. In this study, we employed cell membrane vesicles (CMVs), which are currently being used as nanodrug carriers, as tactile cues for mechano-regulation of collective cell behaviors. Gliomas, which are among the most resilient brain tumors and have a low patient survival rate, were used as the cell model. We observed that mechanical responses due to the application of glioma- or microglia-derived CMVs resulted in the doubling of the traction stress of glioma cell collectives with a 10-fold increase in the CMV concentration. Glioma-CMVs constrained cell protrusions and hindered their collective migration, with the migration speed of such cells declining by almost 40% compared to the untreated cells. We speculated that the alteration of collective polarization leads to migration speed changes, and this phenomenon was elucidated using the cellular Potts model. In addition to intracellular force modulation and cytoskeletal reorganization, glioma-CMVs altered drug diffusion within glioma spheroids by downregulating the mechano-signaling protein YAP-1 while also marginally enhancing the associated apoptotic events. Our results suggest that glioma-CMVs can be applied as an adjuvant to current treatment approaches to restrict tumor invasion and enhance the penetration of reagents within tumors. Considering the broad impact of mechano-transduction on cell functions, the regulation of cell mechanics through CMVs can provide a foundation for alternative therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) is the most prevalent and deadliest primary brain malignancy in adults, whose median survival rate does not exceed 15 months after diagnosis. The conventional treatment of GBM, including maximal safe surgery followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy, usually cannot lead to notable improvements in the disease prognosis and the tumor always recurs. Many GBM characteristics make its treatment challenging. The most important ones are the impermeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), preventing chemotherapeutic drugs from reaching in adequate amounts to the tumor site, intratumoral heterogeneity, and roles of glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs). To overcome these barriers, the recently-developed drug-carrying approach using nanoparticles (NPs) may play a significant role. NPs are tiny particles, usually less than 100 nm showing various diagnostic and therapeutic medical applications. In this regard, cell membrane (CM)-coated NPs demonstrated several promising effects in GBM in pre-clinical studies. They benefit from fewer adverse effects due to their specific targeting of tumor cells, biocompatibility because of their CM surfaces, prolonged half-life, easy penetrating of the BBB, and escaping from the immune reaction, making them an attractive option for GBM treatment. To date, CM-coated NPs have been applied to enhance the effectiveness of major therapeutic approaches in GBM treatment, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, gene therapy, and photo-based therapies. Despite the promising results in pre-clinical studies regarding the effectiveness of CM-coated NPs in GBM, significant barriers like high expenses, complex preparation processes, and unknown long-term effects still hinder its mass production for the clinic. In this regard, the current study aims to provide an overview of different characteristics of CM-coated NPs and comprehensively investigate their application as a novel treatment approach in GBM.

Abstract
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade immunotherapy has emerged as a promising strategy to treat both solid and hematological malignancies. Despite the considerable therapeutic effects obtained in pre-clinical and clinical studies, PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy is still limited by the low benefit rates and a large number of patients still do not respond to this treatment. In this study, we developed a highly efficient and cancer-specific immunogenic cell death nanoinducer for effective tumor immunotherapy. A leukocyte membrane coated poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) encapsulating glycyrrhetinic acid (GCMNPs) was developed to enhance targeting, tumor-homing capacity, and reduce toxicity in vivo. GCMNPs could induce ferroptosis in acute myeloid leukemia and colorectal cancer cells by downregulating glutathione-dependent peroxidases 4, leading to increased lipid peroxidation levels. Moreover, GCMNPs and ferumoxytol could synergistically enhance Fe-dependent cytotoxicity through the Fenton reaction. Finally, in vivo studies showed that GCMNPs synergized with ferumoxytol and anti-PD-L1 synergistically improve T-cell immune response against leukemia and colorectal tumor. This study anticipated that the combination of glycyrrhetinic acid-based nanomaterials and ferrotherapy would provide further insights into anti-cancer immune response to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade for both solid and hematological malignancies. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Despite the considerable therapeutic effects obtained in pre-clinical and clinical studies, PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy is still limited by the low benefit rates and a large number of patients still do not respond to this treatment. We designed a glycyrrhetinic acid-based nanoplatform as a new ICD inducer (GCMNPs), with high cancer cell specificity and reduced toxicity to AML and CRC. GCMNPs cooperates with ferumoxytol to promote a Fenton reaction and induce ferroptosis. Moreover, the combination of GCMNPs and ferumoxytol enhanced the blockage of PD-1/PD-L1 to activate T cells, subsequently generating a systemic immune response in CRC and AML mouse models. This pre-clinical findings provide the proof-of-concept of combination of glycyrrhetinic acid-based nanomaterials and ferrotherapy as an "ICD nano-inducer" and immunotherapeutic agent for treating cancer.

Abstract
The major obstacles of anti-PD therapy in metastatic tumors are limited drug delivery in primary tumors and metastatic foci, and the lack of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). Here, the authors constructed a novel cellular membrane nanovesicles platform (M/IR NPs) based on homologous targeting and near-infrared (NIR) responsive release strategy to potentiate PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy against metastatic tumors. In tumor-bearing mice, biomimetic M/IR NPs targeted both primary tumors and their lung metastases. Upon laser irradiation, M/IR NPs reduced cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in tumor microenvironment, thus increasing the penetration of TILs. When shed from homologous tumor cell membranes, positively charged nanoparticles (IR NPs) core can capture released tumor-associated antigens, thereby enhancing the antigen-presenting ability of DCs to activate cytotoxic T lymphocytes. When the photothermal conversion temperature under NIR-laser is higher than 42 °C, M/IR NPs initiated the rupture of cell membranes and the responsive release of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor BMS, which significantly attenuated tumor-associated immunosuppression and synergistically induced T cellular immunity to inhibit the tumor growth and metastasis. Overall, biomimetic M/IR NPs can improve the targeting and therapeutic efficacy of anti-PD therapy in primary tumors and metastases, opening up a new avenue for the diagnosis and treatment of metastatic tumors in the future.

Abstract
Cancer nanovaccines as one of immunotherapeutic approaches are able to attack tumors by stimulating tumor-specific immunological responses. However, there still exist multiple challenges to be tackled for cancer nanovaccines to evoke potent antitumor immunity. Particularly, the administration of exogenous materials may cause the off-target immunotherapy responses. In recent years, biomimetic nanovaccines by using cell lysates, cell-derived nanovesicles, or extracted cell membranes as the functional components have received extensive attention. Such nanovaccines based on cell-derived components would show many unique advantages including inherent biocompatibility and the ability to trigger immune responses against a range of tumor-associated antigens. In this review article, we will introduce the recent research progresses of those cell-derived biomimetic nanovaccines for cancer immunotherapy, and discuss the perspectives and challenges associated with the future clinical translation of these emerging vaccine platforms.

Abstract
Cell membrane-coated biomimetic nanoplatforms have many inherent properties, such as bio-interfacing abilities, self-identification, and signal transduction, which enable the biomimetic delivery system to escape immune clearance and opsonization. This can also maximize the drug delivery efficiency of synthetic nanoparticles (NPs) and functional cell membranes. As a new type of delivery system, cell membrane-coated biomimetic delivery systems have broadened the prospects for biomedical applications. In this review, we summarize research progress on cell membrane biomimetic technology from three aspects, including sources of membrane, modifications, and applications, then analyze their limitations and propose future research directions.

Abstract
The present study focuses on the immobilization of the bacterial ribonuclease barnase (Bn) into submicron porous calcium carbonate (CaCO3) particles. For encapsulation, we apply adsorption, freezing-induced loading and co-precipitation methods and study the effects of adsorption time, enzyme concentration and anionic polyelectrolytes on the encapsulation efficiency of Bn. We show that the use of negatively charged dextran sulfate (DS) and ribonucleic acid from yeast (RNA) increases the loading capacity (LC) of the enzyme on CaCO3 particles by about 3-fold as compared to the particles with Bn itself. The ribonuclease (RNase) activity of encapsulated enzyme depends on the LC of the particles and transformation of metastable vaterite to stable calcite, as studied by the assessment of enzyme activities in particles.

Abstract
The cell membrane-coated monolithic column (CMMC) ligand fishing assay is an interesting approach set up for the study of natural products (NPs). NPs such as Atractylodes lancea contain many compounds. Traditional methods used to separate compounds and determine active compounds by pharmacological tests are time-consuming and inefficient. Therefore, an alternative method is required to determine active compounds in NPs. Here, white blood cells were broken, and the white blood cell membranes (WBCMs) were immobilized on the surface of a monolithic column to form a CMMC. The column was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Combined with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), the CMMC was used to screen active compounds in Atractylodes lancea. Three potential active compounds including hinesol, β-eudesmol, and 4-phenylbenzaldehyde were discovered. A molecular docking assay demonstrated that these compounds could bind to MD-2 laid on WBCMs. In addition, antiinflammatory effects by the discovered compound in vitro were confirmed, and β-eudesmol showed a concentration-dependent inhibitory effect on the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α of a RAW264.7 cell (P < 0.05). The CMMC ligand fishing assay exhibits good selectivity, great speed effects and is a potentially reliable tool for drug discovery in NPs.

Abstract
An integrated gene nanovector capable of overcoming complicated physiological barriers in one vector is desirable to circumvent the challenges imposed by the intricate tumor microenvironment. Herein, a nuclear localization signals (NLS)-decorated element and an iRGD-functionalized element based on O-carboxymethyl chitosan were synthesized, mixed, and coated onto PEI/DNA to fabricate bacterium-mimicking sequentially targeted therapeutic nanocomplexes (STNPs) which were internalized through receptor-mediated endocytosis and other pathways and achieved nuclear translocation of DNA. The endo/lysosomal membrane disruption triggered by reactive oxygen species (ROS) after short-time illumination, together with the DNA nuclear translocation, evoked an enhanced gene expression. Alternatively, the excessive ROS from long-time irradiation induced apoptosis in tumor cells, bringing about greater anti-tumor efficacy owing to the integration of gene and photodynamic therapy. Overall, these results demonstrated bacterium-mimicking STNPs could be a potential candidate for tumor treatments.

Abstract
Over the past decades, considerable attention has been dedicated to the exploitation of diverse immune cells as therapeutic and/or diagnostic cell-based microrobots for hard-to-treat disorders. To date, a plethora of therapeutics based on alive immune cells, surface-engineered immune cells, immunocytes' cell membranes, leukocyte-derived extracellular vesicles or exosomes, and artificial immune cells have been investigated and a few have been introduced into the market. These systems take advantage of the unique characteristics and functions of immune cells, including their presence in circulating blood and various tissues, complex crosstalk properties, high affinity to different self and foreign markers, unique potential of their on-demand navigation and activity, production of a variety of chemokines/cytokines, as well as being cytotoxic in particular conditions. Here, the latest progress in the development of engineered therapeutics and diagnostics inspired by immune cells to ameliorate cancer, inflammatory conditions, autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular complications, and infectious diseases is reviewed, and finally, the perspective for their clinical application is delineated.

Abstract
Micro/nanomotors bring new possibilities for the detection and therapy of diseases related to the blood environment with their unique motion effect. This work reviews the research progress of using micro/nanomotors in the detection and therapy of diseases related to the blood environment. First, we outline the advantages of using micro/nanomotors in blood-related disease detection. To be specific, the motion capability of micro/nanomotors can increase plasma or blood fluid convection and accelerate the interaction between the sample and the capture probe. This allows the effective reduction of the amount of reagents and treatment steps. Therefore, the application of micro/nanomotors significantly improves the analytical performance. Second, we discuss the key challenges and future prospects of micro/nanomotors in the treatment of blood-environment related diseases. It is very important to design a unique treatment plan according to the etiology and specific microenvironment of the disease. The next generation of micro/nanomotors is expected to bring exciting progress to the detection and therapy of blood-environment related diseases.

Abstract
Immunotherapy will significantly impact the standard of care in cancer treatment. Recent advances in nanotechnology can improve the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. However, concerns regarding efficiency of cancer nanomedicine, complex tumor microenvironment, patient heterogeneity, and systemic immunotoxicity drive interest in more novel approaches to be developed. For this purpose, biomimetic nanoparticles are developed to make innovative changes in the delivery and biodistribution of immunotherapeutics. Biomimetic nanoparticles have several advantages that can advance the clinical efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. Thus there is a greater push toward the utilization of biomimetic nanotechnology for developing effective cancer immunotherapeutics that demonstrate increased specificity and potency. The recent works and state-of-the-art strategies for anti-tumor immunotherapeutics are highlighted here, and particular emphasis has been given to the applications of cell-derived biomimetic nanotechnology for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Self-propelled micro- and nanomotors (MNMs) have shown great potential for applications in the biomedical field, such as active targeted delivery, detoxification, minimally invasive diagnostics, and nanosurgery, owing to their tiny size, autonomous motion, and navigation capacities. To enter the clinic, biomedical MNMs request the biodegradability of their manufacturing materials, the biocompatibility of chemical fuels or externally physical fields, the capability of overcoming various biological barriers (e.g., biofouling, blood flow, blood-brain barrier, cell membrane), and the in vivo visual positioning for autonomous navigation. Herein, the recent advances of synthetic MNMs in overcoming biological barriers and in vivo motion-tracking imaging techniques are highlighted. The challenges and future research priorities are also addressed. With continued attention and innovation, it is believed that, in the future, biomedical MNMs will pave the way to improve the targeted drug delivery efficiency.

Abstract
Cell primitive-based functional materials that combine the advantages of natural substances and nanotechnology have emerged as attractive therapeutic agents for cancer therapy. Cell primitives are characterized by distinctive biological functions, such as long-term circulation, tumor specific targeting, immune modulation etc. Moreover, synthetic nanomaterials featuring unique physical/chemical properties have been widely used as effective drug delivery vehicles or anticancer agents to treat cancer. The combination of these two kinds of materials will catalyze the generation of innovative biomaterials with multiple functions, high biocompatibility and negligible immunogenicity for precise cancer therapy. In this review, we summarize the most recent advances in the development of cell primitive-based functional materials for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Nanoparticle capture and elimination by the immune system are great obstacles for drug delivery. Camouflaging nanoparticles with cell membrane represents a promising strategy to communicate and negotiate with the immune system. As a novel class of nanotherapeutics, such biomimetic nanoparticles inherit specific biological functionalities of the source cells (e.g., erythrocytes, immune cells, cancer cells and platelets) in order to evade immune elimination, prolong circulation time, and even target a disease region by virtue of the homing tendency of the cell membrane protein. In this review, we begin with an overview of different cell membranes that can be utilized to create a biointerface on nanoparticles. Subsequently, we elaborate on the state-of-the-art of cell membrane biomimetic nanoparticles for drug delivery. In particular, a summary of data on circulation capacity and targeting efficiency by camouflaged nanoparticles is presented. In addition to cancer therapy, inflammation treatment, as an emerging application of biomimetic nanoparticles, is specifically included. The challenges and outlook of this technology are discussed.

Abstract
The translocation of natural cell membranes to the surface of synthetic nanoparticles, which allows man-made vectors to share merits and functionalities created by nature, has been a hot subject of research in the past decade. The resulting biomimetic nanoparticles not only retain the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials, but also inherit the advantageous functions of source cells. Combined with the preponderances of both synthetic and natural platforms, the optimized biomimetic systems can maximize the drug delivery efficiency. In this review, we first summarize the preparation strategies of the biomimetic systems from the perspective of the correlation between the properties of nanoparticles and cell membranes. Six types of cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles are further introduced with an emphasis on their properties and performance. Finally, a concluding remark regarding the primary challenges and opportunities associated with these nanoparticles is presented. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Translocation of natural cell membranes to the surface of synthetic nanoparticles has been repeatedly highlighted in the past decade to endow man-made vectors with merits and functionalities created by nature; therefore, the resulting biomimetic systems not only retain the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials but also inherit the biological functions of source cells for efficient drug delivery. To provide a timely review on this hot and rapidly developing subject of research, this paper summarized recent progress on the cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles as drug carriers for cancer therapy, and focused primarily on six different types of cell membrane-coated nanoparticles with an emphasis on the preparation strategies from the perspective of the correlation between the properties of nanoparticles and cell membrane.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is now one of the leading causes of cancer incidence and mortality. Although nanomaterial-based drug delivery has been used for the treatment of colorectal cancer, inferior targeting ability of existing nanocarriers leads to inefficient treatment and side effects. Moreover, the majority of intravenously administered nanomaterials aggregate into the reticuloendothelial system, leaving a certain hidden risk to human health. All those problems gave great demands for further construction of well-performed and biocompatible nanomaterials for in vivo theranostics. In the present work, from a biomimetic point of view, Lactobacillus reuteri biofilm (LRM) was coated on the surface of trackable zinc gallogermanate (ZGGO) near-infrared persistent luminescence mesoporous silica to create the bacteria bioinspired nanoparticles (ZGGO@SiO2@LRM), which hold the inherent capability of withstanding the digestion of gastric acid and targeted release 5-FU to colorectum. Through the background-free persistent luminescence bioimaging of ZGGO, the coating of LRM facilitated the localization of ZGGO@SiO2@LRM to the tumor area of colorectum for more than 24 h after intragastric administration. Furthermore, ZGGO@SiO2@LRM hardly entered the blood, which avoided possible damage to immune organs such as the liver and spleen. In vivo chemotherapy experiment demonstrated the number of tumors per mouse in ZGGO@SiO2@LRM group decreased by one-half compared with the 5-FU group (P < 0.001). To sum up, this LRM bioinspired nanoparticles could tolerate the digestion of gastric acid, avoid aggregation by the immune system, favor gut-oriented drug delivery, and targeted release oral 5-FU into colorectum for more than 24 h, which may give new application prospects for targeted delivery of oral drugs into the colorectum.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising cancer therapeutic strategy, which typically kills cancer cells through converting nontoxic oxygen into reactive oxygen species using photosensitizers (PSs). However, the existing PDTs are still limited by the tumor hypoxia and poor targeted accumulation of PSs. To address these challenges, we here report an acoustically powered and magnetically navigated red blood cell-mimicking (RBCM) micromotor capable of actively transporting oxygen and PS for enhanced PDT. The RBCM micromotors consist of biconcave RBC-shaped magnetic hemoglobin cores encapsulating PSs and natural RBC membrane shells. Upon exposure to an acoustic field, they are able to move in biological media at a speed of up to 56.5 μm s-1 (28.2 body lengths s-1). The direction of these RBCM micromotors can be navigated using an external magnetic field. Moreover, RBCM micromotors can not only avoid the serum fouling during the movement toward the targeted cancer cells but also possess considerable oxygen- and PS-carrying capacity. Such fuel-free RBCM micromotors provide a new approach for efficient and rapid active delivery of oxygen and PSs in a biofriendly manner for future PDT.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chemotherapy plays an important role in antitumour therapy, but causes serious adverse reactions. So, drug delivery system (DDS) with cell-targeting ability is an important method to reduce adverse reactions while ensuring the effectiveness of chemotherapy. Synthetic drug carriers and DDSs based on cells have proven safety and efficacy, but they also have many deficiencies or limitations. Cell membrane capsules (CMCs), which are based on extracellular vesicles (EVs), are a promising biomimetic DDS that retains some cell membrane channels and cytoplasmic functions, with escape macrophage phagocytosis. AREAS COVERED The EVs for constructing CMCs can be prepared by natural secretion, chemical-induced budding, nanofilter membrane extrusion and similar methods and are isolated and purified by a variety of methods such as centrifugation and liquid chromatography. CMCs can target the tumour cells either spontaneously or through targeting modifications using proteins or aptamers to actively target the tumour cells. CMCs can be directly wrapped with chemicals, photosensitizers, RNA, proteins and other ingredients, or they can be loaded with antitumour agent-loaded synthetic nanoparticles, which are delivered to the target cells to play a specific role. EXPERT OPINION This review describes the concept, function, characteristics, origins, and manufacturing methods of CMCs and their application in antitumour therapy.

Abstract
Recent strides in micro- and nanomanufacturing technologies have sparked the development of micro-/nanorobots with enhanced power and functionality. Due to the advantages of on-demand motion control, long lifetime, and great biocompatibility, magnetic propelled micro-/nanorobots have exhibited considerable promise in the fields of drug delivery, biosensing, bioimaging, and environmental remediation. The magnetic fields which provide energy for propulsion can be categorized into rotating and oscillating magnetic fields. In this review, recent developments in oscillating magnetic propelled micro-/nanorobot fabrication techniques (such as electrodeposition, self-assembly, electron beam evaporation, and three-dimensional (3D) direct laser writing) are summarized. The motion mechanism of oscillating magnetic propelled micro-/nanorobots are also discussed, including wagging propulsion, surface walker propulsion, and scallop propulsion. With continuous innovation, micro-/nanorobots can become a promising candidate for future applications in the biomedical field. As a step toward designing and building such micro-/nanorobots, several types of common fabrication techniques are briefly introduced. Then, we focus on three propulsion mechanisms of micro-/nanorobots in oscillation magnetic fields: (1) wagging propulsion; (2) surface walker; and (3) scallop propulsion. Finally, a summary table is provided to compare the abilities of different micro-/nanorobots driven by oscillating magnetic fields.

Abstract
Nanoparticles degradable upon external stimuli combine pharmacokinetic features of both small molecules as well as large nanoparticles. However, despite promising preclinical results, several redox responsive disulphide-linked nanoparticles failed in clinical translation, mainly due to their unexpected in vivo behavior. Glutathione (GSH) is one of the most evaluated antioxidants responsible for disulfide degradation. Herein, the impact of GSH on the in vivo behavior of redox-sensitive nanogels under physiological and modulated conditions is investigated. Labelling of nanogels with a DNA-intercalating dye and a radioisotope allows visualization of the redox responsiveness at the cellular and the systemic levels, respectively. In vitro, efficient cleavage of disulphide bonds of nanogels is achieved by manipulation of intracellular GSH concentration. While in vivo, the redox-sensitive nanogels undergo, to a certain extent, premature degradation in circulation leading to rapid renal elimination. This instability is modulated by transient inhibition of GSH synthesis with buthioninsulfoximin. Altered GSH concentration significantly changes the in vivo pharmacokinetics. Lower GSH results in higher elimination half-life and altered biodistribution of the nanogels with a different metabolite profile. These data provide strong evidence that decreased nanogel degradation in blood circulation can limit the risk of premature drug release and enhance circulation half-life of the nanogel.

Abstract
Excitotoxicity is a common phenomenon in several neurological diseases, associated with an impaired clearance of synaptically released glutamate, which leads to an overactivation of postsynaptic glutamate receptors. This will, in turn, start an intracellular cascade of neurotoxic events, which include exacerbated production of reactive oxygen species and ammonia toxicity. We report the assembly of microreactors equipped with platinum nanoparticles as artificial enzymes and polymer terminating layers including poly(dopamine). The biological response to these microreactors is assessed in human neuroblastoma cell culture. The microreactors' function to deplete hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and ammonia is confirmed. While the proliferation of the cells depends on the number of microreactors present, no inherent toxicity is found. Furthermore, the microreactors are able to ameliorate the effects of excitotoxicity in cell culture by scavenging H2O2 and ammonia, thus having the potential to provide a therapeutic approach for several neurological diseases in which excitotoxicity is observed.

Abstract
Cell functionalization with recently developed various nano- and microcarriers for therapeutics has significantly expanded the application of cell therapy and targeted drug delivery for the effective treatment of a number of diseases. The aim of this progress report is to review the most recent advances in cell-based drug vehicles designed as biological transporter platforms for the targeted delivery of different drugs. For the design of cell-based drug vehicles, different pathways of cell functionalization, such as covalent and noncovalent surface modifications, internalization of carriers are considered in greater detail together with approaches for cell visualization in vivo. In addition, several animal models for the study of cell-assisted drug delivery are discussed. Finally, possible future developments and applications of cell-assisted drug vehicles toward targeted transport of drugs to a designated location with no or minimal immune response and toxicity are addressed in light of new pathways in the field of nanomedicine.

Abstract
Intelligent colloidal particles have been widely used as carriers for delivery of bioactive molecules due to the ability of controlled release. However, attention is mainly paid to the effects of their payloads, whereas the impacts of carriers are largely ignored. In this study, photo-responsive polyethylene glycol (PEG) microparticles were fabricated by using 8-arm-PEG with terminal amine groups (8-arm-PEG-NH2) and a photo-cleavable cross-linker. Due to the cleavable CO bond in the cross-linker, under UV irradiation the PEG particles could be decomposed gradually, leading to particle swelling and eventual disappearance. The PEG particles could be internalized by smooth muscle cells and HepG2 cells, and located in lysosomes. Their intracellular photo-response induced significant decrease of cell viability and increase of reactive oxygen species level.

Abstract
Nowadays, photodynamic therapy (PDT) is under the research spotlight as an appealing modality for various malignant tumors. Compared with conventional PDT treatment activated by ultraviolet or visible light, near infrared (NIR) light-triggered PDT possessing deeper penetration to lesion area and lower photodamage to normal tissue holds great potential for in vivo deep-seated tumor. In this review, recent research progress related to the exploration of NIR light responsive PDT nanosystems is summarized. To address current obstacles of PDT treatment and facilitate the effective utilization, several innovative strategies are developed and introduced into PDT nanosystems, including the conjugation with targeted moieties, O2 self-sufficient PDT, dual photosensitizers (PSs)-loaded PDT nanoplatform, and PDT-involved synergistic therapy. Finally, the potential challenges as well as the prospective for further development are also discussed.

Abstract
Cell membrane coated nanoparticles (NPs) is a biomimetic strategy developed to engineer therapeutic devices consisting of a NP core coated with membrane derived from natural cells such as erythrocytes, white blood cells, cancer cells, stem cells, platelets or bacterial cells. These biomimetic NPs have gained a lot of attention recently owing to their cell surface mimetic features and tailored nanomaterial characteristics. They have shown strong potential in diagnostic and therapeutic applications including those in drug delivery, immune modulation, vaccination and detoxification. Herein we review the various types of cell membrane coated NPs reported in the literature and the unique strengths of these biomimetic NPs with an emphasis on how these bioinspired camouflage strategies have led to improved therapeutic efficacy. We also highlight the recent progress made by each platform in advancing healthcare and precis the major challenges associated with these NPs.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Many treatments have been developed so far, although effective, suffer from severe side effects due to low selectivity. Nanoparticles can improve the therapeutic index of their delivered drugs by specifically transporting them to tumors. However, their exogenous nature usually leads to fast clearance by mononuclear phagocytic system. Recently, cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles have been investigated for cancer therapy, taking advantages of excellent biocompatibility and versatile functionality of cell membranes. In this review, we summarized source materials and procedures that have been used for constructing and characterizing biomimetic nanoparticles with a focus on their application in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Efficient depot systems for entrapment and storage of small water-soluble molecules are of high demand for wide variety of applications ranging from implant based drug delivery in medicine and catalysis in chemical processes to anticorrosive systems in industry where surface-mediated active component delivery is required on a time and site specific manner. This work reports the fabrication of individually sealed hollow-structured polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) microchamber arrays based on layer-by-layer self-assembly as scaffolds and microcontact printing. These PEM chambers are composed out of biocompatible polyelectrolytes and sealed by a monolayer of hydrophobic biocompatible and biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA). Coating the chambers with hydrophobic PLA allows for entrapment of a microair-bubble in each chamber that seals and hence drastically reduces the PEM permeability. PLA@PEM microchambers are proven to enable prolonged subaqueous storage of small hydrophilic salts and molecules such as crystalline NaCl, doxicycline, and fluorescent dye rhodamine B. The presented microchambers are able to entrap air bubbles and demonstrate a novel strategy for entrapment, storage, and protection of micropackaged water-soluble substances in precipitated form. These chambers allow triggered release as demonstrated by ultrasound responsiveness of the chambers. Low-frequency ultrasound exposure is utilized for microchamber opening and payload release.

Abstract
Cell membrane-derived nanoparticles are becoming more attractive because of their ability to mimic many features of their source cells. This study reports on a biomimetic delivery platform based on human cytotoxic T-lymphocyte membranes. In this system, the surface of poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid nanoparticles was camouflaged using T-lymphocyte membranes, and local low-dose irradiation (LDI) was used as a chemoattractant for nanoparticle targeting. The T-lymphocyte membrane coating was verified using dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy. This new platform reduced nanoparticle phagocytosis by macrophages to 23.99% (P=0.002). Systemic administration of paclitaxel-loaded T-lymphocyte membrane-coated nanoparticles inhibited the growth of human gastric cancer by 56.68% in Balb/c nude mice. Application of LDI at the tumor site significantly increased the tumor growth inhibition rate to 88.50%, and two mice achieved complete remission. Furthermore, LDI could upregulate the expression of adhesion molecules in tumor vessels, which is important in the process of leukocyte adhesion and might contribute to the localization of T-lymphocyte membrane-encapsulated nanoparticles in tumors. Therefore, this new drug-delivery platform retained both the long circulation time and tumor site accumulation ability of human cytotoxic T lymphocytes, while local LDI could significantly enhance tumor localization.

Abstract
The upconversion nanoparticle (UCNP)-based photodynamic therapy (PDT) agents are promising for deep-tissue cancer treatment because they may overcome current limitations due to the shallow penetration depth of visible light. However, limited blood circulation time and poor tumor-targeting capability challenge the therapeutic efficacy of UCNP-based PDT in vivo. Here, we demonstrate intravenous injectable stem-cell-membrane-camouflaged upconversion nanoarchitectures as a biomimetic tumor PDT platform. The biomimetic PDT system is constructed by fusing mesoporous-silica-encapsulated β-NaYF4:Yb3+,Er3+ UCNPs with stem-cell membranes. Translocation of the stem-cell membranes to the UCNPs led to the translation of multiple membrane components, bringing the membranes' long circulation and tumor-targeting capability to the resulting platform. Multiphotosensitizers were encapsulated and simultaneously activated by a 980 nm single laser because of the multicolor emission capability of the UCNP cores. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that this novel platform inherits the tumor-targeting properties of stem cells and exhibits remarkable accumulation at the tumor site. In vivo tumor PDT results show higher tumor inhibition efficacy by tail intravenous administration of this new photosensitizer-loaded system. This stem-cell-membrane-camouflaged upconversion nanoarchitecture provides artificial UCNPs with natural cell membranes and holds considerable promise for deep-tissue PDT cancer treatment by systemic administration.

Biomimetic membrane-conjugated graphene nanoarchitecture for light-manipulating combined cancer treatment in vitro. J Colloid Interface Sci 2016; 482:121-130. [PMID: 27497233 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2016.07.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2016] [Revised: 07/15/2016] [Accepted: 07/15/2016] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
We report that through facile lipid self-assembly, biomimetic membrane-conjugated mesoporous silica-coated graphene oxide is constructed as targeting nanocarrier toward efficient combination of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy. Impressively, the simple surface modification with folate-contained lipid bilayer allows the graphene-based nanoarchitecture above to be selectively internalized by tumor cells overexpressing relevant receptors. Compared to pure drug, 7-fold doxorubicin is delivered into tumor cells by the nanoarchitecture. After cellular internalization, upon near infrared light illumination, graphene oxide in the nanoarchitecture can convert light energy into heat to kill cancer cells partially. Simultaneously, hyperthermia will drive rapid release of doxorubicin from the nanoarchitecture above to further cause the death of more cancer cells. Thus, integrated cancer treatment with higher efficacy is achieved in vitro compared to that of individual therapy.

[PMID: 27073065 DOI: 10.1002/smll.201503969] [Citation(s) in RCA: 87] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2015] [Revised: 02/03/2016] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
The combination of bottom-up controllable self-assembly technique with bioinspired design has opened new horizons in the development of self-propelled synthetic micro/nanomotors. Over the past five years, a significant advances toward the construction of bioinspired self-propelled micro/nanomotors has been witnessed based on the controlled self-assembly technique. Such a strategy permits the realization of autonomously synthetic motors with engineering features, such as sizes, shapes, composition, propulsion mechanism, and function. The construction, propulsion mechanism, and movement control of synthetic micro/nanomotors in connection with controlled self-assembly in recent research activities are summarized. These assembled nanomotors are expected to have a tremendous impact on current artificial nanomachines in future and hold potential promise for biomedical applications including drug targeted delivery, photothermal cancer therapy, biodetoxification, treatment of atherosclerosis, artificial insemination, crushing kidney stones, cleaning wounds, and removing blood clots and parasites.
