Abstract
As an innovative technology, four-dimentional (4D) printing is built upon the principles of three-dimentional (3D) printing with an additional dimension: time. While traditional 3D printing creates static objects, 4D printing generates "responsive 3D printed structures", enabling them to transform or self-assemble in response to external stimuli. Due to the dynamic nature, 4D printing has demonstrated tremendous potential in a range of industries, encompassing aerospace, healthcare, and intelligent devices. Nanotechnology has gained considerable attention owing to the exceptional properties and functions of nanomaterials. Incorporating nanomaterials into an intelligent matrix enhances the physiochemical properties of 4D printed constructs, introducing novel functions. This review provides a comprehensive overview of current applications of nanomaterials in 4D printing, exploring their synergistic potential to create dynamic and responsive structures. Nanomaterials play diverse roles as rheology modifiers, mechanical enhancers, function introducers, and more. The overarching goal of this review is to inspire researchers to delve into the vast potential of nanomaterial-enabled 4D printing, propelling advancements in this rapidly evolving field.

Abstract
Copper sulfide based phototherapy, including photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy, is an emerging minimally invasive treatment of tumor, which the light was converted to heat or reactive oxygen to kill the tumor cells. Compared with conventional chemotherapy and radiation therapy, Cu2-x S based phototherapy is more efficient and has fewer side effects. However, considering the dose-dependent toxicity of Cu2-x S, the performance of Cu2-x S based phototherapy still cannot meet the requirement of the clinical application to now. To overcome this limitation, engineering of Cu2-x S to improve the phototherapy performance by increasing light absorption has attracted extensive attention. For better guidance of Cu2-x S engineering, we outline the currently engineering method being explored, including (1) structural engineering, (2) compositional engineering, (3) functional engineering, and (4) performance engineering. Also, the relationship between the engineering method and phototherapy performance was discussed in this review. In addition, the further development of Cu2-x S based phototherapy is prospected, including smart materials based phototherapy, phototherapy induced immune microenvironment modulation et al. This review will provide new ideas and opportunities for engineering of Cu2-x S with better phototherapy performance. This article is categorized under: Diagnostic Tools > In Vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Melanoma is a highly metastatic skin cancer with limited response to current therapies in advanced patients. To overcome resistance, novel treatments based on photodynamic and photothermal therapies (PDT and PTT, respectively) have been developed to treat melanoma in preclinical murine models. Despite success inhibiting implanted tumors' growth, there has been limited evaluation of their long-term effectiveness in preventing metastasis, recurrence, or improving survival rates. METHODS Combined and multidrug therapies based on PDT and/or PTT to treat cutaneous malignant melanoma in the preclinical mouse model were reviewed from 2016 onwards. PubMed® was the database in which the search was performed using mesh search algorithms resulting in fifty-one studies that comply with strict inclusion rules of screening. RESULTS B16 melanoma-bearing C57BLACK6 mice model was the most used to evaluate immunotherapies, chemotherapies, and targeted therapies in combination with PDT and/or PTT. Combined therapies demonstrated a synergistic effect, resulting in intense antitumor activity. The most extensively studied protocol for developing metastatic models involved the intravenous administration of malignant cells, with some combined therapies being tested. Furthermore, the review presents the composition of the nanostructures utilized for delivering the drugs and light-responsive agents and the treatment plans for each combined approach. CONCLUSIONS The identified mechanisms to simulate metastatic melanoma models and the therapeutic combinations may aid in evaluating the systemic protection of combined PDT and PTT-based therapies, particularly in conducting short-term preclinical experiments. Such simulations could have relevance to clinical studies.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is fast becoming a global health crisis, accounting for most female deaths in low- and middle-income countries. It is the fourth most frequent cancer affecting women, and due to its complexity, conventional treatment options are limited. Nanomedicine has found a niche in gene therapy, with inorganic nanoparticles becoming attractive tools for gene delivery strategies. Of the many metallic nanoparticles (NPs) available, copper oxide NPs (CuONPs) have been the least investigated in gene delivery. In this study, CuONPs were biologically synthesized using Melia azedarach leaf extract, functionalized with chitosan and polyethylene glycol (PEG), and conjugated to the targeting ligand folate. A peak at 568 nm from UV-visible spectroscopy and the characteristic bands for the functional groups using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy confirmed the successful synthesis and modification of the CuONPs. Spherical NPs within the nanometer range were evident from transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA). The NPs portrayed exceptional binding and protection of the reporter gene, pCMV-Luc-DNA. In vitro cytotoxicity studies revealed cell viability >70% in human embryonic kidney (HEK293), breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), and cervical cancer (HeLa) cells, with significant transgene expression, obtained using the luciferase reporter gene assay. Overall, these NPs showed favorable properties and efficient gene delivery, suggesting their potential role in gene therapy.

Abstract
Past studies have shown that the hot spring effect can promote wound healing. Mild thermal stimulation and metal ions can promote angiogenesis. In this study, the hot spring effect was simulated by thermosensitive PNIPAAm hydrogel loaded with copper sulfide nanoparticles. Heat stimulation could be generated through near-infrared irradiation, and copper ions solution could be pulsed. On the other hand, the CS/PVA nanofiber membrane was attached to the bottom of the hydrogel to simulate the extracellular matrix structure, thus improving the wound healing ability. The CS/PVA nanofiber membrane was prepared by electrospinning, and the appropriate prescription and process parameters were determined. The nanofiber membrane has uniform pore size, good water absorption and permeability. The poor mechanical properties of PNIPAAm hydrogel were improved by adding inorganic clay. The temperature of the hydrogel loaded with CuS nanoparticles reached 40 °C under near-infrared light irradiation for 20 min, and the release rate of Cu2+ reached 26.89%. The wound-healing rate of the rats in the combined application group reached 79.17% at 13 days, demonstrating superior results over the other control groups. Histological analyses show improved inflammatory response at the healed wound area. These results indicate that this combined application approach represents a promising wound treatment strategy.

Abstract
Cu(II) monitoring is a matter of great interest to researchers due to its toxicity and adverse environmental effects. Among different methods for detecting Cu(II), ion-selective electrode (ISE) is more advantageous as they are low-cost, easy to fabricate, and highly selective. Here, we report a simple, inexpensive, and reproducible procedure for the fabrication of Cu(II) ion-selective electrodes using CuS particles and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as a matrix. CuS particles, obtained by chemical precipitation, were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (EDX). Optimization of the membrane compositions was done to get a well-behaved sensor by varying amounts of CuS, PVC, and acetophenone (AP). A membrane composition of 0.4 g CuS, 0.5 g PVC, and 1.0 mL AP in 5.0 mL tetrahydrofuran (THF) gave a Nernstian slope of 27.31 mV per decade change of Cu(II) ion over a wide range of concentration down to 64 ppb (1 × 10−6 M). The sensor gave a fast response time of 25 s, and it indicated the endpoint in a potentiometric titration of Cu(II) with standard EDTA solution. A pH-independent potential response was obtained in the pH 4.0–6.0.

Abstract
In recent years, imaging-guided photothermal tumor ablation has attracted intense research interest as one of the most exciting strategies for cancer treatment. Herein, we prepared polydopamine and graphene quantum dot-capped Prussian blue nanocubes (PB@PDA@GQDs, PBPGs) with high photothermal conversion efficiency and excellent fluorescence performance for imaging-guided cancer treatment. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-vis absorption spectroscopy (UV-vis), fluorescence spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were employed to characterize their morphology and structures. The photothermal conversion efficiency and therapeutic effect were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Results revealed that this nanoagent had excellent biocompatibility and enhanced the photothermal effect compared to blue nanocubes (PBs) and polydopamine-capped Prussian blue nanocubes (PB@PDA, PBPs). Therefore, our study may open a new path for the production of PB-based nanocomposites as theranostic nanoagents for imaging-guided photothermal cancer treatment.

Abstract
Since the identification of the first human coronavirus in the 1960s, a total of six coronaviruses that are known to affect humans have been identified: 229E, OC43, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), NL63, HKU1, and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV). Presently, the human world is affected by a novel version of the coronavirus family known as SARS-CoV-2, which has an extremely high contagion rate. Although the infection fatality rate (IFR) of this rapidly spreading virus is not high (ranging from 0.00% to 1.54% across 51 different locations), the increasing number of infections and deaths has created a worldwide pandemic situation. To provide therapy to severely infected patients, instant therapeutic support is urgently needed and the repurposing of already approved drugs is presently in progress. In this regard, the development of nanoparticles as effective transporters for therapeutic drugs or as alternative medicines is highly encouraged and currently needed. The size range of the viruses is within 60-140 nm, which is slightly larger than the diameters of nanoparticles, making nanomaterials efficacious tools with antiviral properties. Silver-based nanomaterials (AgNMs) demonstrate antimicrobial and disinfectant effects mostly by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and are presently considered as a versatile tool for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. Other metal-based nanoparticles have been primarily reported as delivery agents or surface modifying agents, vaccine adjuvant against coronavirus. The present review summarizes and discusses the possible effectiveness of various surface-modified AgNMs against animal coronaviruses and presents a concept for AgNM-based therapeutic treatment of SARS-CoV-2 in the near future.

Abstract
Copper(II) diethyldithiocarbamate complex (CuET), the metabolite of disulfiram complexed with copper, is the component responsible for cancer treatment efficacy of disulfiram. But the hydrophobic property of CuET limits its use in vivo, and an appropriate drug delivery system needs to be developed. Ultrasmall melanin nanoparticle (M-Dot) with excellent biosafety and biocompatibility properties has been synthesized in our previous studies. Herein we prepared CuET loaded with M-Dots through hydrophobic interaction, which could enhance the water solubility significantly. After the administration of M-Dots-CuET in mice tumor models, the nanoparticles showed good tumor accumulation as evidenced by the enhanced photoacoustic signal in tumor regions. M-Dots-CuET also displayed excellent tumor inhibition capability, and the tumor growth inhibition value (TGI) was 45.1%. When combined with photothermal therapy, the TGI reached up to 78.6%. In summary, M-Dots-CuET provide a new potential strategy for cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Copper sulfide nanospheres (CuS NS) were prepared by a solvothermal method with the support of p-phenylene diamine as a structure direct agent. The formation of CuS NS was evaluated using XRD, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, XPS, and electrochemical methods. The CuS NS modified electrode demonstrated excellent electro-catalytic behavior for the electro-oxidation of oxalic acid (OA). The modified electrode showed a good linear range (50 to 700 μM), high sensitivity (0.0353 μA μM-1 cm-2), a low detection limit (35.6 μM), long term stability and good anti-interference behavior.

Abstract
As an essential trace element in the human body, transitional metal copper (Cu) ions are the bioactive components within the body featuring dedicated biological effects such as promoting angiogenesis and influencing lipid/glucose metabolism. The recent substantial advances of nanotechnology and nanomedicine promote the emerging of distinctive Cu-involved biomaterial nanoplatforms with intriguing theranostic performances in biomedicine, which are originated from the biological effects of Cu species and the physiochemical attributes of Cu-composed nanoparticles. Based on the very-recent significant progresses of Cu-involved nanotheranostics, this work highlights and discusses the principles, progresses, and prospects on the elaborate design and rational construction of Cu-composed functional nanoplatforms for a diverse array of biomedical applications, including photonic nanomedicine, catalytic nanotherapeutics, antibacteria, accelerated tissue regeneration, and bioimaging. The engineering of Cu-based nanocomposites for synergistic nanotherapeutics is also exemplified, followed by revealing their intrinsic biological effects and biosafety for revolutionizing their clinical translation. Finally, the underlying critical concerns, unresolved hurdles, and future prospects on their clinical uses are analyzed and an outlook is provided. By entering the "Copper Age," these Cu-involved nanotherapeutic modalities are expected to find more broad biomedical applications in preclinical and clinical phases, despite the current research and developments still being in infancy.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) assisted effective internalization into CD44 receptor-overexpressing cancer cells, which could offer an excellent cytotoxic profile and tumor alterations. In this study, duo-photothermal agents (copper sulfide (CuS) and graphene oxide (GO)), chemotherapeutic drug (doxorubicin (DOX)), and targeting moiety (HA) were incorporated into a complexed nanoconstruct for trio-responsive chemo-phototherapy. The nanosystem (CuS(DOX)-GO-HA) was demonstrating its responsive drug release and escalated photothermal behavior. The hyperthermia and photodynamic effect were observed along with efficient ROS generation in the presence of dual photosensitizers. The in vivo biodistribution and photothermal profile reflected a high accumulation and retention of the nanoconstruct in the tumor. Importantly, nanoconstructs effectively inhibit tumor growth based on tumor volume analysis and the altered expression of apoptosis, cell proliferation, and angiogenesis markers. Collectively, these findings suggest that this nanoconstruct has excellent antitumor effects in CD44 overexpressed cells showing the potential for clinical translation in the future.

Abstract
The photocatalytic activity of a material is contingent on efficient light absorption, fast electron excitation, and control of the recombination rate by effective charge separation. Inorganic materials manufactured in unique shapes via controlled synthesis can exhibit significantly improved properties. Here, n-type Bi2S3 nanorods (with good optical activity) were wrapped with two-dimensional (2D) p-type MoS2 sheets, which have good light absorption properties. The designed p-n junction Bi2S3/MoS2 composite exhibited enhanced light absorption over the entire wavelength range, and higher carbon dioxide adsorption capacity and photocurrent density compared to the single catalysts. Consequently, the activity of the 1Bi2S3/1MoS2 composite catalyst for the photocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide was more than 20 times higher than that of the single catalysts under visible-light irradiation at ≤400 nm, with partial selectivity for CO conversion. This is attributed to the p-n heterojunction Bi2S3/MoS2 composite designed in this study, the high light absorption of n-Bi2S3, accelerated electron excitation, and the electron affinity of the 2D sheet-p-MoS2, which quickly absorbed excited electrons, resulting in effective charge separation. This ultimately improved the catalytic performance by continuously supplying catalytically active sites to the heterojunction interfaces.

Abstract
In this work, a two-phase system composed of hydrophobic ionic liquid (IL) and water phases was introduced to prepare copper sulfide (CuS) nanoparticles. It was found that CuS particles generated from the interfaces of carboxyl-functionalized IL and sodium sulfide (Na2S) aqueous solution were prone to aggregate into nanoplates and those produced from the interfaces of carboxyl-functionalized IL and thioacetamide (TAA) aqueous solution tended to aggregate into nanospheres. Both the CuS nanoplates and nanospheres exhibited a good absorption ability for ultraviolet and visible light. Furthermore, the CuS nanoplates and nanospheres showed highly efficient photocatalytic activity in degrading rhodamine B (RhB). Compared with the reported CuS nanostructures, the CuS nanoparticles prepared in this work could degrade RhB under natural sunlight irradiation. Finally, the production of CuS from the interfaces of hydrophobic IL and water phases had the advantages of mild reaction conditions and ease of operation.

Abstract
Copper chalcogenides have been exhibited to be an encouraging photothermal operator because of their great photothermal transformation proficiency, engineered effortlessness, and ease. Notwithstanding, the hydrophobic and low biocompatibility attributes related with their manufactured procedures hamper broadly natural applications. An elective methodology for improve hydrophilic nature and biocompatibility to coating into the copper-based chalcogenide nanostructures containing core shell silica materials. In this manuscript, the level headed planning configuration results in effective covering silica nanostructures onto the synthesized Cu9S5 to form Cu9S5@MS core-shell nanostructures. The structural formation and nanostructures of prepared nanomaterials with core shell structure were confirmed via analysis of transmission microscopic and particles distribution investigates, which infers that Cu9S5@MS has been organized by nano level with high stability. Also, the formation of Cu9S5@MS was confirmed by UV-Visible and X-ray techniques. As-prepared Cu9S5@MS nanovesicles display good biocompatibility, and are successfully utilized for photothermal removal of disease cells and NIR therapy. Additionally, the mode of cell death in esophageal squamous carcinoma cells were monitored various staining techniques (AO and EB, nuclear staining and flowcytometry). Further, we evaluated by the human esophageal squamous cancer cell lines to observe cell cycle arrest ability. Significantly, we demonstrate the combination of photothermal and chemotherapeutic techniques through the prepared nanovesicles exhibits outstanding impacts in the treatment of esophageal cancer therapies in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Copper sulfide materials have diverse applications from cancer therapy to environmental remediation due to their narrow bandgap and easily tuned plasmon. The synthesis of these materials often involves toxic reagents and harsh conditions where biomimetic methods may provide opportunities to produce these structures under sustainable conditions. To explore this capability, simple amino acids were exploited as biological ligands for the ambient synthesis of CuS materials. Using an aqueous-based approach, CuS nanodisks were prepared using acid-containing amino acid molecules that stabilize the materials against bulk aggregation. These structures were fully characterized by UV-vis analysis, transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, atomic force microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, and X-ray diffraction, which confirmed the formation of CuS. The materials possessed a vibrant plasmon band in the near IR region and demonstrated enhanced photocatalytic reactivity for the advanced oxidation of organic dyes in water. These results demonstrate a room temperature synthetic route to optically important materials, which could have important application in catalysis, optics, nanomedicine, etc.

Abstract
Copper sulfide nanoparticles (CuS NPs), emerging nanoplatforms with dual diagnostic and therapeutic applications, are being actively investigated in this era of "war on cancer" owing to their versatility and adaptability. This article discusses the pros and cons of using CuS NPs in diagnostics, therapeutics, and theranostics. The first section introduces CuS NPs and discusses the features that render them more advantageous than other established nanoplatforms in cancer management. Subsequent sections include specific in vitro and in vivo results of different studies showing the potential of CuS NPs as nanoplatforms. Methods used for visualization (photoacoustic imaging and magnetic resonance imaging) of CuS NPs and treatment (phototherapy and combinatorial therapy) have also been discussed. Furthermore, the challenges and opportunities associated with using CuS NPs have been elucidated. Further investigations on CuS NPs are required to translate it for clinical applications.

Abstract
Among the foreseeable therapeutic approaches at the cellular level, nanoplatform-driven photothermal therapy is a thriving tool for the selective eradication of malignant tissues with minimal side effects to healthy ones. Hence, chemically versatile, near-infrared absorbing plasmonic nanoparticles are distinctly appealing and most sought after as efficient photothermal agents. In this work, a straightforward method to synthesize monodisperse PEGylated copper sulfide nanoparticles of pure covellite (CuS) phase, featuring strong localized surface plasmonic resonance absorption in the near-infrared and flexible surface chemistry, imparted by monomethyl ether polyethylene glycol molecules, is developed and optimized. These nanoparticles show a remarkable photothermal heat conversion efficiency (HCE) of 71.4%, which is among the highest for CuS systems and rivals that of plasmonic noble metal nanostructures. Moreover, through critical evaluation and mathematical modeling of the material's properties and measurement methodology, it is assessed that the calculated HCE values drastically depend on experimental conditions such as wavelength-dependent solvent absorption properties, sol concentration, and optical path. These findings are of paramount relevance to the photothermal community, since they call for a standardization of the procedure for the evaluation of the HCE of proposed photothermal agents, in order to make the reported values universally and reliably comparable.

JOURNAL OF MASS SPECTROMETRY : JMS 2018; 53:296-313. [PMID: 29333632 DOI: 10.1002/jms.4062] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2017] [Revised: 12/20/2017] [Accepted: 01/02/2018] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
The intrinsic binding ability of 7 natural peptides (oxytocin, arg8 -vasopressin, bradykinin, angiotensin-I, substance-P, somatostatin, and neurotensin) with copper in 2 different oxidation states (CuI/II ) derived from different Cu+/2+ precursor sources have been investigated for their charge-dependent binding characteristics. The peptide-CuI/II complexes, [M - (n-1)H + nCuI ] and [M - (2n-1)H + nCuII ], are prepared/generated by the reaction of peptides with CuI solution/Cu-target and CuSO4 solution and are analyzed by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The MALDI mass spectra of both [M - (n-1)H + nCuI ] and [M - (2n-1)H + nCuII ] complexes show no mass shift due to the loss of ─H atoms in the main chain ─NH of these peptides by Cu+ and Cu2+ deprotonation. The measured m/z value indicates the reduction of CuI/II oxidation state into Cu0 during MALDI processes. The number and relative abundance of Cu+ bound to the peptides are greater compared with the Cu2+ bound peptides. Oxytocin, arg8 -vasopressin, bradykinin, substance-P, and somatostatin show the binding of 5Cu+ , and angiotensin-I and neurotensin show the binding of 7Cu+ from both CuI and Cu targets, while bradykinin shows the binding of 2Cu2+ , oxytocin, arg8 -vasopressin, angiotensin-I, and substance-P; somatostatin shows the binding of 3Cu2+ ; and neurotensin shows 4Cu2+ binding. The binding of more Cu+ with these small peptides signifies that the bonding characteristics of both Cu+ and Cu2+ are different. The amino acid residues responsible for the binding of both Cu+ and Cu2+ in these peptides have been identified based on the density functional theory computed binding energy values of Cu+ and the fragment transformation method predicted binding preference of Cu2+ for individual amino acids.

Abstract
Active targeting of tumor receptors is a significant approach for cancer diagnosis. Additionally, development of photothermal agents for photothermal therapy (PTT) has attracted great interest in the field of nanomedicine. In the present study, copper sulfide (CuS) nanoparticles capped with bovine serum albumin (BSA), named CuS@BSA, was synthesized by a convenient method. Then, the near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence probe MBA and the tumor-targeting ligand cyclic RGD were further conjugated on the surface of CuS@BSA, and the obtained nanocomposite was named CuS@BSA-MBA-cRGD. The morphology, optical properties, biotoxicity, tumor-targeting capability and in vitro and in vivo tumor inhibition effect were all characterized comprehensively. This nanocomplex demonstrated enhanced photothermal effects and positive tumor targeting. Thus, the nanocomposite CuS@BSA-MBA-cRGD can used as a promising tumor-targeting PTT agent for simultaneous cancer imaging and photothermal treatment. This study provides a good platform for diagnosis and treatment, and it is expected to prompt further exploration of the active target efficiency to achieve better tumor treatment.![]()

Abstract
As a significant metal chalcogenide, copper sulfide (Cu2-xS, 0 < x < 1), with a unique semiconducting and nontoxic nature, has received significant attention over the past few decades. Extensive investigations have been employed to the various Cu2-xS micro-/nanostructures owing to their excellent optoelectronic behavior, potential thermoelectric properties, and promising biomedical applications. As a result, micro-/nanostructured Cu2-xS with well-controlled morphologies, sizes, crystalline phases, and compositions have been rationally synthesized and applied in the fields of photocatalysis, energy conversion, in vitro biosensing, and in vivo imaging and therapy. However, a comprehensive review on diversified Cu2-xS micro-/nanostructures is still lacking; therefore, there is an imperative need to thoroughly highlight the new advances made in function-directed Cu2-xS-based nanocomposites. In this review, we have summarized the important progress made in the diversified Cu2-xS micro-/nanostructures, including that in the synthetic strategies for the preparation of 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D micro-/nanostructures (including polyhedral, hierarchical, hollow architectures, and superlattices) and in the development of modified Cu2-xS-based composites for enhanced performance, as well as their various applications. Furthermore, the present issues and promising research directions are briefly discussed.
