Abstract
Ultrasensitive and rapid detection of low concentration of Escherichia coli O157: H7 (E. coli O157:H7) in food is essential for food safety and public health. In this study, A novel fluorescence signal amplification biosensor based on magnetic separation platform and red fluorescent carbon dots (R-CDs)-encapsulated breakable organosilica nanocapsules (BONs) for ultrasensitive detection of E. coli O157:H7 was established. Wulff-type boronic acid functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs@B-N/APBA) with broad-spectrum bacterial recognition ability were synthesized for the first time to recognize and capture E. coli O157: H7 in food samples. R-CDs@BONs labeled with anti-E. coli O157:H7 monoclonal antibody (mAb@R-CDs@BONs-NH2) were used as the second recognition element to ensure the specificity for E. coli O157:H7 and form MNPs@B-N/APBA∼ E. coli O157:H7∼mAb@R-CDs@BONs-NH2 sandwich complexes, followed by releasing R-CDs to generate amplified fluorescence response signals for quantitative detection of E. coli O157:H7. The proposed method had a limit of detection with 25 CFU/mL in pure culture and contaminated lettuce samples, which the whole detection process took about 120 min. This fluorescence signal amplification biosensor has the potential to detect other pathogens in food by altering specific antibodies.

Abstract
The threat posed by antibiotic-resistant bacteria and the challenge of biofilm formation has highlighted the inadequacies of conventional antibacterial therapies, leading to increased interest in antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) in recent years. This approach offers advantages such as minimal invasiveness, low systemic toxicity, and notable effectiveness against drug-resistant bacterial strains. Porphyrins and their derivatives, known for their high molar extinction coefficients and singlet oxygen quantum yields, have emerged as crucial photosensitizers in aPDT. However, their practical application is hindered by challenges such as poor water solubility and aggregation-induced quenching. To address these limitations, extensive research has focused on the development of porphyrin-based nanomaterials for aPDT, enhancing the efficacy of photodynamic sterilization and broadening the range of antimicrobial activity. This review provides an overview of various porphyrin-based nanomaterials utilized in aPDT and biofilm eradication in recent years, including porphyrin-loaded inorganic nanoparticles, porphyrin-based polymer assemblies, supramolecular assemblies, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and covalent organic frameworks (COFs). Additionally, insights into the prospects of aPDT is offered, highlighting its potential for practical implementation.

Polymers (Basel) 2024; 16:2102. [PMID: 39125129 PMCID: PMC11313919 DOI: 10.3390/polym16152102] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2024] [Revised: 07/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/19/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Aqueous solutions of a thermoresponsive diblock copolymer poly(di-[ethylene glycol] methyl ether methacrylate)-b-poly(2-[diisopropylamino] ethyl methacrylate) (PDEGMA-b-PDIPAEMA) were studied by static, dynamic and electrophoretic light scattering, small-angle X-ray scattering and differential scanning calorimetry. Thermoresponsive behavior of PDEGMA-b-PDIPAEMA was investigated at two pH values, pH = 2, at which the terminal carboxylic group of the PDEGMA chain and the PDIPAEMA block are protonated, and pH = 7, where the carboxyl terminal group is ionized while the PDIPAEMA block is partially deprotonated and more hydrophobic. Both at pH = 2 and 7, PDEGMA-b-PDIPAEMA copolymer underwent extensive association (the size of the aggregates was between 100 and 300 nm), indicating strong interchain interactions. While the measurements confirmed thermoresponsive behavior of PDEGMA-b-PDIPAEMA at pH = 7, no changes in the association with temperature were observed at pH 2 as the thermoresponsivity of PDEGMA was suppressed by hydrogen bonding between carboxylic groups and PDEGMA segments, as well as due to the increased hydrophilicity of the PDIPAEMA block. Fluorescence measurements with pyrene as a fluorescent probe showed that both at pH = 2 and pH = 7 the associates were able to solubilize hydrophobic substances.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The development of bimodal imaging probes represents a hot topic of current research. Herein, we deal with developing an innovative bimodal contrast agent enabling fluorescence imaging (FI)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and, simultaneously, consisting of biocompatible nanostructures. Optimized synthesis of advanced protein-embedded bimetallic (APEBM) nanocomposite containing luminescent gold nanoclusters (AuNC) and superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION), suitable for in vivo dual-modal FI/MR imaging is reported. EXPERIMENTS The APEBM nanocomposite was prepared by a specific sequential one-pot green synthetic approach that is optimized to increase metals (Au, Fe) content and, consequently, the imaging ability of the resulting nanostructures. The protein matrix, represented by serum albumin, was intentionally chosen, and used since it creates an efficient protein corona for both types of optically/magnetically-susceptible nanostructures (AuNC, SPION) and ensures biocompatibility of the resulting APEBM nanocomposite although it contains elevated metal concentrations (approx. 1 mg·mL-1 of Au, around 0.3 mg·mL-1 of Fe). In vitro and in vivo imaging was performed. FINDINGS Successful in vivo FI and MRI recorded in healthy mice corroborated the applicability of the APEBM nanocomposite and, simultaneously, served as a proof of concept concerning the potential future exploitation of this new FI/MRI bimodal contrast agent in preclinical and clinical practice.

Abstract
The recent emergence of nanomedicine has revolutionized the therapeutic landscape and necessitated the creation of more sophisticated drug delivery systems. Polymeric nanoparticles sit at the forefront of numerous promising drug delivery designs, due to their unmatched control over physiochemical properties such as size, shape, architecture, charge, and surface functionality. Furthermore, polymeric nanoparticles have the ability to navigate various biological barriers to precisely target specific sites within the body, encapsulate a diverse range of therapeutic cargo and efficiently release this cargo in response to internal and external stimuli. However, despite these remarkable advantages, the presence of polymeric nanoparticles in wider clinical application is minimal. This review will provide a comprehensive understanding of polymeric nanoparticles as drug delivery vehicles. The biological barriers affecting drug delivery will be outlined first, followed by a comprehensive description of the various nanoparticle designs and preparation methods, beginning with the polymers on which they are based. The review will meticulously explore the current performance of polymeric nanoparticles against a myriad of diseases including cancer, viral and bacterial infections, before finally evaluating the advantages and crucial challenges that will determine their wider clinical potential in the decades to come.

Abstract
Pd25Cu75@SiO2 core-shell and PdCu@SiO2@Cu core-shell-satellite architectures were fabricated by silica-coating of Pd25Cu75 colloids in a reverse microemulsion. Hydrolysis of tetraethylorthosilicate in the reverse microemulsion containing hydrazine and ammonia yielded a core-shell structure, while the use of ammonia only, instead of a mixture of hydrazine and ammonia, formed a core-shell-satellite structure. The ammonia-leached copper species migrated onto the developing silica shell and formed smaller Cu clusters. Air-calcination at 673 K followed by H2-reduction at 773 K of the as-synthesized samples removed the organic surfactants and generated the permeable porous silica shells. The core-shell catalyst consisted of a metal core (8.5 nm) and a silica shell (7.8 nm), while the core-shell-satellite catalyst was composed by a metal core (7.0 nm), a silica shell (8.0 nm), and satellite Cu clusters (1.4 nm) on the silica shell. When used to catalyze the selective hydrogenation of acetylene to ethylene, the core-shell-satellite catalyst showed substantially enhanced activity and stability because of the synergetic catalysis between the metal core and the surrounding Cu clusters.

Abstract
Postoperative recovery of cancer patients can be affected by complications, such as tissue dysfunction or disability caused by tissue resection, and also cancer recurrence resulting from residual cancer cells. Despite impressive progress made for tissue engineering scaffolds that assist tissue regeneration for postoperative cancer patients, the majority of existing tissue engineering scaffolds still lack functions for monitoring and killing residual cancer cells, if there are any, upon their detection. In this study, multifunctional scaffolds that comprise biodegradable nanofibers and core-shell structured microspheres encapsulated with theranostic nanoparticles (NPs) are developed. The multifunctional scaffolds possess an extracellular matrix-like nanofibrous architecture and soft tissue-like mechanical properties, making them excellent tissue engineering patch candidates for assisting in the repair and regeneration of tissues at the cancerous sites after surgery. Furthermore, they are capable of localized delivery of theranostic NPs upon quick degradation of core-shell structured microspheres that contain theranostic NPs. Leveraging on folic acid-mediated ligand-receptor binding, surface-enhanced Raman scattering activity, and near-infrared-responsive photothermal effect of the theranostic gold NPs (AuNPs) delivered locally, the multifunctional scaffolds display excellent active targeting, diagnosis, and photothermal therapy functions for cancer cells, showing great promise for adaptive postoperative cancer management.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is a newly developed cancer-therapeutic modality that kills cancer cells by the highly toxic hydroxyl radical (˙OH) generated from the in situ triggered Fenton/Fenton-like reactions in an acidic and H2O2-overproduced tumor microenvironment (TME). By taking the advantage of the TME-activated catalytic reaction, CDT enables a highly specific and minimally-invasive cancer treatment without external energy input, whose efficiency mainly depends on the reactant concentrations of both the catalytic ions and H2O2, and the reaction conditions (including pH, temperature, and amount of glutathione). Unfortunately, it suffers from unsatisfactory therapy efficiency for clinical application because of the limited activators (i.e., mild acid pH and insufficient H2O2 content) and overexpressed reducing substance in TME. Currently, various synergistic strategies have been elaborately developed to increase the CDT efficiency by regulating the TME, enhancing the catalytic efficiency of catalysts, or combining with other therapeutic modalities. To realize these strategies, the construction of diverse nanocarriers to deliver Fenton catalysts and cooperatively therapeutic agents to tumors is the key prerequisite, which is now being studied but has not been thoroughly summarized. In particular, nanocarriers that can not only serve as carriers but are also active themselves for therapy are recently attracting increasing attention because of their less risk of toxicity and metabolic burden compared to nanocarriers without therapeutic capabilities. These therapy-active nanocarriers well meet the requirements of an ideal therapy system with maximum multifunctionality but minimal components. From this new perspective, in this review, we comprehensively summarize the very recent research progress on nanocarrier-based systems for enhanced CDT and the strategies of how to integrate various Fenton agents into the nanocarriers, with particular focus on the studies of therapy-active nanocarriers for the construction of CDT catalysts, aiming to guide the design of nanosystems with less components and more functionalities for enhanced CDT. Finally, the challenges and prospects of such a burgeoning cancer-theranostic modality are outlooked to provide inspirations for the further development and clinical translation of CDT.

Abstract
The lipid-inspired biosilicification process enables the creation of a series of concave silica nanoarchitectures in the complex shapes of nanobowls, nanodishes, nanoboats, and nanoloops. The reaction at a pH of 8 initially allows the formation of thin and elastic circular gel nanosheets that can undergo inducible stretching and folding, which subsequently evolves into nanodish and nanobowl through a potential global buckling process. The adjustment of the pH to 9 and 4 enables the production of more complex morphogens of nanoboat and nanoloop, respectively. These unique silica nanoarchitectures may have a wide scope of potential application from nanoreactors in heterogenous catalysis to drug delivery systems and optical materials.

Abstract
Biological nanotechnologies have provided considerable opportunities in the management of malignancies with delicate design and negligible toxicity, from preventive and diagnostic to therapeutic fields. Lipoproteins, because of their inherent blood-brain barrier permeability and lesion-homing capability, have been identified as promising strategies for high-performance theranostics of brain diseases. However, the application of natural lipoproteins remains limited owing to insufficient accumulation and complex purification processes, which can be critical for individual therapeutics and clinical translation. To address these issues, lipoprotein-inspired nano drug-delivery systems (nano-DDSs), which have been learned from nature, have been fabricated to achieve synergistic drug delivery involving site-specific accumulation and tractable preparation with versatile physicochemical functions. In this review, the barriers in brain disease treatment, advantages of state-of-the-art lipoprotein-inspired nano-DDSs, and bio-interactions of such nano-DDSs are highlighted. Furthermore, the characteristics and advanced applications of natural lipoproteins and tailor-made lipoprotein-inspired nano-DDSs are summarized. Specifically, the key designs and current applications of lipoprotein-inspired nano-DDSs in the field of brain disease therapy are intensively discussed. Finally, the current challenges and future perspectives in the field of lipoprotein-inspired nano-DDSs combined with other vehicles, such as exosomes, cell membranes, and bacteria, are discussed.

[PMID: 36851912 PMCID: PMC9958404 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.02.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2022] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 02/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteogenesis, osteoclastogenesis, and angiogenesis play crucial roles in bone regeneration. Parathyroid hormone (PTH), an FDA-approved drug with pro-osteogenic, pro-osteoclastogenic and proangiogenic capabilities, has been employed for clinical osteoporosis treatment through systemic intermittent administration. However, the successful application of PTH for local bone defect repair generally requires the incorporation and delivery by appropriate carriers. Though several scaffolds have been developed to deliver PTH, they suffer from the weaknesses such as uncontrollable PTH release, insufficient porous structure and low mechanical strength. Herein, a novel kind of NIR-activable scaffold (CBP/MBGS/PTHrP-2) with dual-mode PTHrP-2 (a PTH derivative) release capability is developed to synergistically promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis for high-efficacy bone regeneration, which is fabricated by integrating the PTHrP-2-loaded hierarchically mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) into the N-hydroxymethylacrylamide-modified, photothermal agent-doped, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-based thermosensitive hydrogels through assembly process. Upon on/off NIR irradiation, the thermoresponsive hydrogel gating undergoes a reversible phase transition to allow the precise control of on-demand pulsatile and long-term slow release of PTHrP-2 from MBG mesopores. Such NIR-activated dual-mode delivery of PTHrP-2 by this scaffold enables a well-maintained PTHrP-2 concentration at the bone defect sites to continually stimulate vascularization and promote osteoblasts to facilitate and accelerate bone remodeling. In vivo experiments confirm the significant improvement of bone reparative effect on critical-size femoral defects of rats. This work paves an avenue for the development of novel dual-mode delivery systems for effective bone regeneration.

Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1260:341203.

Abstract
The integration of cancer imaging with therapy in a simple system is warranted for precise cancer therapy. In this study, carboxyl-functionalized mesoporous carbon nanospheres (MCN) which are efficient photothermal agents and excellent fluorescence quenchers, were used for cancer cell imaging and selective photothermal therapy (PTT) applications. Using MCN, a matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2)- responsive theranostic nanoprobe was generated by functionalizing an MMP-2-specific fluorescent-labeled PLGVR sequence on the surface of MCN. The nanoprobe not only can be used to detect MMP-2 with a low detection limit of 0.3 pg mL-1, but also can achieve the sensitive intracellular MMP-2 imaging in living cells, validating the differentiation of cancer cells from healthy cells based on the recovered fluorescence intensity. More importantly, selective cancer PTT was achieved using MMP-2-triggered cancer cell imaging. Our in vitro studies showed that by regulating the power density and irradiation time, the nanoprobe can effectively kill cancer cells via PTT. Our strategy opens new avenues for precision medicine, especially phototherapy.

Abstract
The discovery of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomenon in 2001 has had a significant impact on materials development across different research disciplines. AIE-active materials have been widely exploited for various applications in optoelectronics, sensing, biomedical, and stimuli-responsive systems, etc. This is made possible by integrating AIE features with other fields of science and engineering, such as nanoscience and nanotechnology. AIE has been extensively employed, particularly for biomedical applications, such as biosensing, bioimaging, and theranostics. However, development of AIE-based nanotechnology for other applications is comparatively less, although there have been increasing research activities in recent years. Given the significance and potential of the marriage between AIE hallmark and nanotechnology in AIE-active materials development, this review article summarizes and showcases the latest research efforts in AIE-based nanomaterials, including nanomaterials synthesis and their nonbiomedical applications, such as sensing, optoelectronics, functional coatings, and stimuli-responsive systems. A perspective on the outlook of AIE-based nanostructured materials and relevant nanotechnology for nonbiomedical applications will be provided, giving an insight into how to design AIE-active nanostructures as well as their applications beyond the biomedical domain.

Abstract
Cardioprotective medication is the common treatment to relieve myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, limited by the low bioavailability of therapeutic drugs, the therapeutic outcome is barely satisfactory. Because the I/R injury can enhance the permeability of the vasculature and allow the extravasation of nanoparticles into the surrounding tissue, herein we formulate the cardiotonic drug olprinone (Olp) in cross-linked micelles as the nanomedicine to achieve myocardium-targeted delivery after systematic administration. As a result, the local concentration of Olp in the injured myocardium is raised by orders of magnitude with prolonged drug duration time. The treatment successfully preserves the pumping efficiency of the heart, alleviates ventricular remodeling, and thus stops the positive feedback loop for the deteriorated cardiac function. Consequently, the myocardium-targeted nanomedicine significantly salvages the heart from I/R injury before irreversible pathological changes take place.

Abstract
Responsive fluorescent materials offer a high potential for sensing and (bio-)imaging applications. To investigate new concepts for such materials and to broaden their applicability, the previously reported non-fluorescent zinc(II) complex [Zn(L)] that shows coordination-induced turn-on emission was encapsulated into a family of non-fluorescent polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) diblock copolymer micelles leading to brightly emissive materials. Coordination-induced turn-on emission upon incorporation and ligation of the [Zn(L)] in the P4VP core outperform parent [Zn(L)] in pyridine solution with respect to lifetimes, quantum yields, and temperature resistance. The quantum yield can be easily tuned by tailoring the selectivity of the employed solvent or solvent mixture and, thus, the tendency of the PS-b-P4VP diblock copolymers to self-assemble into micelles. A medium-dependent off-on sensor upon micelle formation could be established by suppression of non-micelle-borne emission background pertinent to chloroform through controlled acidification indicating an additional pH-dependent process.

Abstract
With the rapid development of nanotechnology, new types of fluorescent nanomaterials (FNMs) have been springing up in the past two decades. The nanometer scale endows FNMs with unique optical properties which play a critical role in their applications in bioimaging and fluorescence-dependent detections. However, since low selectivity as well as low photoluminescence efficiency of fluorescent nanomaterials hinders their applications in imaging and detection to some extent, scientists are still in search of synthesizing new FNMs with better properties. In this review, a variety of fluorescent nanoparticles are summarized including semiconductor quantum dots, carbon dots, carbon nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, graphene-based nanomaterials, noble metal nanoparticles, silica nanoparticles, phosphors and organic frameworks. We highlight the recent advances of the latest developments in the synthesis of FNMs and their applications in the biomedical field in recent years. Furthermore, the main theories, methods, and limitations of the synthesis and applications of FNMs have been reviewed and discussed. In addition, challenges in synthesis and biomedical applications are systematically summarized as well. The future directions and perspectives of FNMs in clinical applications are also presented.

Abstract
Hybridized periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) nanoparticles are expected to provide a multifunctional theranostic platform for precision medicine by combining the advantages of different organic and inorganic components. In this work, double-shell-structured PMO nanotheranostics composed of ethane- and thioether-bridged organosilica shells were synthesized. Gold colloids were generated in situ by the thioether groups on the inner shell. The obtained double-shell PMO@Au (DSPA) has uniform size, large surface areas, ordered mesochannels and photothermal conversion capability. After being encapsulated with perfluorohexacene (PFH), DSPA-PFH produced a strong ultrasound signal upon laser irradiation due to the phase transit of PFH during hyperthermia. DSPA-PFH showed enhanced photothermal therapeutic efficacy, great ultrasound contrast, and minimal toxicity both in vitro and in vivo. These results demonstrated the distribution of different organosilica could be delicately adjusted in hybridized PMO nanoparticles. Furthermore, it showed the potential of using hybridized PMO nanoparticles as a theranostic platform for biomedical applications by combining unique characteristics of different organosilica through rational design.

Abstract
Herein, a feasible outside-in hydrothermal self-transformation strategy is presented to fabricate hierarchically porous benzene-bridged organosilica nanoparticles (HPBONs), and detailed mechanistic investigations were performed to study the formation of hierarchically porous nanostructures. The obtained HPBONs consisted of a mesoporous core (2.3 nm) and a large mesoporous flocculent shell (12.6 nm), which corresponded to an overall diameter of ∼ 200 nm and good water dispersibility, respectively. Owing to the unique hierarchically porous structure and high surface area (877 m2/g), HPBONs showed a high coloading capacity for the hydrophilic drug doxorubicin (DOX) and the hydrophobic photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) (355 µg/mg, 38 µg/mg, respectively) and acid-responsive DOX drug release (42.62%), leading to precise chemo-photodynamic therapy in vitro, as the cytotoxicity assay revealed 70% killing of breast cancer (MCF-7) cells. This research provides a new method to construct hierarchically porous organosilica-based nanodelivery systems.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Delivery of multiple payloads using the same micelle is of significance to achieve multifunctional or synergistic effects. The interacting distribution of different payloads in micelles is expected to influence the loading stability and capacity. It is highly desirable to explore how intermolecular interactions affect the joint distribution of multi-payloads. EXPERIMENTS Dissipative Particle Dynamics simulations were performed to probe the loading of three payloads: decane with a linear carbon chain, butylbenzene with an aromatic ring connected to carbon chain, and naphthalene with double aromatic rings, within poly(β-amino ester)-b-poly(ethylene glycol) micelles. Properties of core-shell micelles, e.g., morphological evolution, radial density distribution, mean square displacement, and contact statistics, were analyzed to reveal payloads loading stability and capacity. Explorations were extended to vesicular, multi-compartment, double helix, and layer-by-layer micelles with more complex inner structures. FINDINGS Different payloads have their own preferred locations. Decane locates at the hydrophilic/hydrophobic interface, butylbenzene occupies both the hydrophilic/hydrophobic interface and the hydrophobic core, while naphthalene enters the hydrophobic core. More efficient delivery of multi-payloads is achieved since the competition of payloads occupying preferred locations is minimized. The fusion of micelles encapsulating different payloads suggests that specific payloads will move to their preferred positions without interfering other payloads.

Abstract
Given the breadth of currently arising opportunities and concerns associated with nanoparticles for biomedical imaging, various types of nanoparticles have been widely exploited, especially for cellular/subcellular level probing. However, most currently reported nanoparticles either have inefficient delivery into cells or lack specificity for intracellular destinations. The absence of well-defined nanoplatforms remains a critical challenge hindering practical nano-based bio-imaging. Herein, the authors elaborate on a tailorable membrane-penetrating nanoplatform as a carrier with encapsulated actives and decorated surfaces to tackle the above-mentioned issues. The tunable contents in such a versatile nanoplatform offer huge flexibility to reach the expected properties and functions. Aggregation-induced emission luminogen (AIEgen) is applied to achieve sought-after photophysical properties, specific targeting moieties are installed to give high affinity towards different desired organelles, and critical grafting of cell-penetrating cyclic disulfides (CPCDs) to promote cellular uptake efficiency without sacrificing the specificity. Hereafter, to validate its practicability, the tailored nano products are successfully applied to track the dynamic correlation between mitochondria and lysosomes during autophagy. The authors believe that the strategy and described materials can facilitate the development of functional nanomaterials for various life science applications.

Abstract
Inorganic nanomaterials that have inherently exceptional physicochemical properties (e.g., catalytic, optical, thermal, electrical, or magnetic performance) that can provide desirable functionality (e.g., drug delivery, diagnostics, imaging, or therapy) have considerable potential for application in the field of biomedicine. However, toxicity can be caused by the long-term, non-specific accumulation of these inorganic nanomaterials in healthy tissues, preventing their large-scale clinical utilization. Over the past several decades, the emergence of biodegradable and clearable inorganic nanomaterials has offered the potential to prevent such long-term toxicity. In addition, a comprehensive understanding of the design of such nanomaterials and their metabolic pathways within the body is essential for enabling the expansion of theranostic applications for various diseases and advancing clinical trials. Thus, it is of critical importance to develop biodegradable and clearable inorganic nanomaterials for biomedical applications. This review systematically summarizes the recent progress of biodegradable and clearable inorganic nanomaterials, particularly for application in cancer theranostics and other disease therapies. The future prospects and opportunities in this rapidly growing biomedical field are also discussed. We believe that this timely and comprehensive review will stimulate and guide additional in-depth studies in the area of inorganic nanomedicine, as rapid in vivo clearance and degradation is likely to be a prerequisite for the future clinical translation of inorganic nanomaterials with unique properties and functionality.

Abstract
Intricately structured mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (IMONs) are being increasingly studied from their synthesis strategies to their use in biomedical applications, because of their distinctive hierarchical structures, excellent physicochemical features and satisfactory biological properties. This minireview is the first to summarize recently developed IMONs, including yolk-shell-structured nanoparticles, multi-shelled hollow spheres, deformable nanocapsules, Janus nanostructures and virus-like bionic-structured nanocarriers, and describe the corresponding formation mechanisms and recent evolution of the strategies used to synthesize these kinds of IMONs. Structure-dependent biomedical applications, such as multidrug delivery, bioimaging, synergistic therapy and biocatalysis, are also discussed. Finally, we provide an outlook for IMONs ranging from their structural control to synthesis strategies and ending with their use in biomedical applications.

Abstract
To combine the advantages of micelles and biomimetic silica materials, biomimetic micellar mesoporous silica xerogel (BM-SX) was initially established, biomimetic silica xerogel (B-SX) was also studied as control and nitrendipine (NDP) was taken as model drug. The content mainly focused on drug dissolution, systemic stability and cellular transmembrane transport of NDP loaded B-SX and NDP loaded BM-SX. With extra mesopores formed due to HPMC E50 micelles, the mean pore diameter, surface area and pore volume of BM-SX were all larger than B-SX. After loading NDP into the two carriers, crystal NDP changed to amorphous phase, leading to enhanced NDP dissolution. BM-SX presented superior abilities not only for its higher drug dissolution compared to B-SX but also for its capacity in remaining high amorphous drug phase and therefore no drug dissolution reduction can be observed. The dynamic contact angle result confirmed the strong power of HPMC E50 micelles in maintaining amorphous NDP in the carrier to improve high systemic stability. Both B-SX and BM-SX could increase drug absorption permeability and exert function as drug efflux inhibitor to inhibit the efflux effect of p-gp drug pump and promote NDP absorption and transport, and BM-SX was superior owing to micelles in the system.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials have drawn increasing attention as photothermal agents in tumor therapy due to the advantages of green synthesis, high loading efficiency of hydrophobic drugs, facile incorporation of theranostic iron, and excellent photothermal efficiency without inert components or additives. Herein, we proposed a strategy for biomimetic engineering-mediated enhancement of photothermal performance in the tumor microenvironment (TME). This strategy is based on the specific characteristics of organic-inorganic hybrid materials and endows these materials with homologous targeting ability and photothermal stability in the TME. The hybrid materials perform the functions of cancer cells to target homolytic tumors (acting as "artificial nanotargeted cells (ANTC)"). Inspired by the pH-dependent disassembly behaviors of tannic acid (TA) and ferric ion (FeIII) and subsequent attenuation of photothermal performance, cancer cell membranes were self-deposited onto the surfaces of protoporphyrin-encapsulated TA and FeIII nanoparticles to achieve ANTC with TME-stable photothermal performance and tumor-specific phototherapy. The resulting ANTC can be used as contrast agents for concurrent photoacoustic imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, and photothermal imaging to guide the treatment. Importantly, the high loading efficiency of protoporphyrin enables the initiation of photodynamic therapy to enhance photothermal therapeutic efficiency, providing antitumor function with minimal side effects.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) remains a formidable challenge in oncology. Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) that triggers tumor cell death by reactive oxygen species (ROS) could open up a new door for GBM treatment. Herein, we report a novel CDT nanoagent. Hemoglobin (Hb) and glucose oxidase (GOx) were employed as powerful CDT catalysts. Instead of encapsulating the proteins in drug delivery nanocarriers, we formulate multimeric superstructures as self-delivery entities by crosslinking techniques. Red blood cell (RBC) membranes are camouflaged on the protein superstructures to promote the delivery across blood-brain barrier. The as-prepared RBC@Hb@GOx nanoparticles (NPs) offer superior biocompatibility, simplified structure, and high accumulation at the tumor site. We successfully demonstrated that the NPs could efficiently produce toxic ROS to kill U87MG cancer cells in vitro and inhibit the growth of GBM tumor in vivo, suggesting that the new CDT nanoagent holds great promise for treating GBM.

Abstract
Theranostics is a fast-growing field due to demands for new, efficient therapeutics which could be precisely delivered to the target site using multimodal imaging with enhancing auxiliary actions. In this review article we discuss theranostic nanoplatforms containing polymers and magnetic nanoparticles along with other components. Magnetic nanoparticles allow for both diagnostic and therapeutic (hyperthermia) capabilities, while polymers can be reservoirs for drugs and are easily functionalized for cell targeting. We focus on the most important design strategies to achieve optimal theranostic effects as well as the roles of different components included in theranostics, reviewing the literature from the last 5 years.

Abstract
As a consequence of recent progression in biomedicine and nanotechnology, nanomedicine has emerged rapidly as a new discipline with extensive application of nanomaterials in biology, medicine, and pharmacology. Among the various nanomaterials, silica nanoparticles (SNPs) are particularly promising in nanomedicine applications due to their large specific surface area, adjustable pore size, facile surface modification, and excellent biocompatibility. This paper reviews the synthesis of SNPs and their recent usage in drug delivery, biomedical imaging, photodynamic and photothermal therapy, and other applications. In addition, the possible adverse effects of SNPs in nanomedicine applications are reviewed from reported in vitro and in vivo studies. Finally, the potential opportunities and challenges for the future use of SNPs are discussed.

Abstract
HIGHLIGHTS The formation of manganese oxide induces self-assembly of block copolymers to form polymeric vesicles. The polymeric vesicles possessed strong stability and high drug loading capacity. The drug-loaded polymeric vesicles have been demonstrated, especially in in vivo studies, to exhibit a higher efficacy of tumor suppression without known cardiotoxicity. ABSTRACT Molecular self-assembly is crucially fundamental to nature. However, the aqueous self-assembly of polymers is still a challenge. To achieve self-assembly of block copolymers [(polyacrylic acid–block–polyethylene glycol–block–polyacrylic acid (PAA68–b–PEG86–b–PAA68)] in an aqueous phase, manganese oxide (MnO2) is first generated to drive phase separation of the PAA block to form the PAA68–b–PEG86–b–PAA68/MnO2 polymeric assembly that exhibits a stable structure in a physiological medium. The polymeric assembly exhibits vesicular morphology with a diameter of approximately 30 nm and high doxorubicin (DOX) loading capacity of approximately 94%. The transformation from MnO2 to Mn2+ caused by endogenous glutathione (GSH) facilitates the disassembly of PAA68–b–PEG86–b–PAA68/MnO2 to enable its drug delivery at the tumor sites. The toxicity of DOX-loaded PAA68–b–PEG86–b–PAA68/MnO2 to tumor cells has been verified in vitro and in vivo. Notably, drug-loaded polymeric vesicles have been demonstrated, especially in in vivo studies, to overcome the cardiotoxicity of DOX. We expect this work to encourage the potential application of polymer self-assembly.

Abstract
Although photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been clinically applied tumor hypoxia still greatly restricts the performance of this oxygen-dependent oncological treatment. The delivery of oxygen donors to tumor may produce excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and damage the peripheral tissues. Herein, we developed a strategy to solve the hypoxia issue by enhancing the lethality of ROS. Before PDT, the ROS-defensing system of the cancer cells was obstructed by an inhibitor to MTH1, which is a key for the remediation of ROS-caused DNA damage. As a result, both nuclei and mitochondrial DNA damages were increased, remarkably promoting cellular apoptosis. The therapeutic results demonstrated that the performance of PDT can be improved by the MTH1 inhibitor, leading to efficient cancer cell killing effect in the hypoxic tumor. This strategy makes better use of the limited oxygen, holding the promise to achieve satisfactory therapeutic effect by PDT without generating redundant cytotoxic ROS.

Abstract
Recent drug delivery nanosystems for cancer treatment still suffer from the poor tumor accumulation and low therapeutic efficacy due to the complex in vivo biological barriers. To resolve these problems, in this work, a novel gradient redox-responsive and two-stage rocket-mimetic drug nanocarrier is designed and constructed for improved tumor accumulation and safe chemotherapy. The nanocarrier is constructed on the basis of the disulfide-doped organosilica-micellar hybrid nanoparticles and the following dual-functional modification with disulfide-bonded polyethylene glycol (PEG) and amido-bonded polyethylenimine (PEI). First, prolonged circulation duration in the bloodstream is guaranteed due to the shielding of the outer PEG chains. Once the nanocarrier accumulates at the tumoral extracellular microenvironment with low glutathione (GSH) concentrations, the first-stage redox-responsive behavior with the separation of PEG and the exposure of PEI is triggered, leading to the improved tumor accumulation and cellular internalization. Furthermore, with their endocytosis by tumor cells, a high concentration of GSH induces the second-stage redox-responsiveness with the degradation of silsesquioxane framework and the release of the encapsulated drugs. As a result, the rocket-mimetic drug carrier displays longer circulation duration in the bloodstream, higher tumor accumulation capability, and improved antitumor efficacy (which is 2.5 times higher than that with inseparable PEG). It is envisioned that the rocket-mimetic strategy can provide new solutions for improving tumor accumulation and safety of nanocarriers in further cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
Surgical resection is the primary and most effective treatment for most patients with solid tumors. However, patients suffer from postoperative recurrence and metastasis. In the past years, emerging nanotechnology has led the way to minimally invasive, precision and intelligent oncological surgery after the rapid development of minimally invasive surgical technology. Advanced nanotechnology in the construction of nanomaterials (NMs) for precision imaging-guided surgery (IGS) as well as surgery-assisted synergistic therapy is summarized, thereby unlocking the advantages of nanotechnology in multimodal IGS-assisted precision synergistic cancer therapy. First, mechanisms and principles of NMs to surgical targets are briefly introduced. Multimodal imaging based on molecular imaging technologies provides a practical method to achieve intraoperative visualization with high resolution and deep tissue penetration. Moreover, multifunctional NMs synergize surgery with adjuvant therapy (e.g., chemotherapy, immunotherapy, phototherapy) to eliminate residual lesions. Finally, key issues in the development of ideal theranostic NMs associated with surgical applications and challenges of clinical transformation are discussed to push forward further development of NMs for multimodal IGS-assisted precision synergistic cancer therapy.

Abstract
Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are both common clinical treatment methods. The combination of the two treatments can decrease tumor recurrence. In this study, bismuth-based mesoporous litchi-shaped Na0.2Bi0.8O0.35F1.91:20%Yb (NBOF) nanoparticles (NPs) have been reported as a radiosensitizer and as a nanovehicle for loading and slow-releasing doxorubicin (DOX). After assembling with amphiphilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), NBOF-DOX-PEG qualified with excellent aqueous dispersibility and the enhanced tumor radiation and chemo-synergistic therapy characteristics. The formation of NBOF revealed the oxygen element in NBOF came from H2O and air in the synthesis and post-treatment process, and the size of NBOF could be adjusted by changing the concentration of doped Yb ion. The average size of NBOF was ca. 80 nm. Brunauer-Emmett-Teller results demonstrated the mesoporous structure of NBOF. So DOX could be loaded in NBOF and the optimized loading content was 39%. Then, NBOF-PEG exhibited a strong computed tomography signal whitening ability and enhanced radiotherapy effect. Combined with the chemotherapy ability of DOX, NBOF-DOX-PEG NPs presented remarkable synergistic tumor elimination ability. Meanwhile, NBOF-DOX-PEG NPs qualified for excellent biosafety. Our study not only proved the combined chemo- and radiotherapy for enhancing therapeutic effect but also supplied a functional Bi-based mesoporous nanovehicle for constructing an intelligent theranostic platform.

Abstract
Hollow periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) with molecularly homogeneous organic functional groups in the inorganic pore walls are attracting more and more attention due to the high surface areas, tunable pore sizes, low densities, large cavities in the center, permeable thin shells, and versatile organic-inorganic hybrid frameworks, which make them promising in a variety of applications including adsorption, catalysis, drug delivery, and nanotheranostics. Herein, recent advances in the synthesis of hollow PMO nanoparticles with various organic moieties are summarized, and the mechanism and new insights of synthesis approaches, including hard-core templating methods, liquid-interface assembly methods, and the interfacial reassembly and transformation strategy are discussed in-depth. Meanwhile, the design principles, properties, and synthetic strategies for some smart hollow architectures such as multishelled hollow PMOs, yolk-shell structured PMOs, and nonspherical hollow PMOs are discussed. Moreover, the typical applications of hollow PMO nanomaterials as nanoreactors for chemical transformations and nanoplatforms for biomedicine are summarized. Finally, the challenges and prospects for the future development of hollow PMOs are described.

Abstract
Organic triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion (TTA-UC) nanoparticles have emerged as exciting therapeutic agents and imaging probes in recent years due to their unique chemical and optical properties such as outstanding biocompatibility and low power excitation density. In this review, we focus on the latest breakthroughs in such new version of upconversion nanoparticle, including their design, preparation, and applications. First, we will discuss the key principles and design concept of these organic-based photon upconversion in regard to the methods of selection of the related triplet TTA dye pairs (photosensitizer and emitter). Then, we will discuss the recent approaches s to construct TTA-UCNPs including silica TTA-UCNPs, lipid-coated TTA-UCNPs, polymer encapsulated TTA-UCNPs, nano-droplet TTA-UCNPs and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) constructed TTA-UCNPs. In addition, the applications of TTA-UCNPs will be discussed. Finally, we will discuss the challenges posed by current TTA-UCNP development.
