Abstract
A biological nanoplatform (Gal-ANI@ZnAP NPs) was constructed based on a prodrug-skeletal metal-organic framework (MOF) using purine nucleobase analogue prodrug 6-allylthiopurine as a bioactive ligand, and functionalized with AIE fluorescent PARP inhibitor glycoconjugate for visualization therapy and synthetic lethal cancer therapy. This nanoplatform could actively target cancer cells, selectively release drugs in response to esterase/pH, and visualize drug uptake. In vitro studies revealed that Gal-ANI@ZnAP NPs increased the synthetic lethality in cancer cells by inducing DNA repair failure with the simultaneous targeting of PARP and nucleotide metabolism, thereby exhibiting a significant cancer-killing effect. The study presents a novel strategy to construct an AIE nanoplatform using pharmaceutical molecules for drug uptake visualization and boosting synthetic lethality in cancer.

Abstract
In pharmaceutical industries, various chemical carriers are present which are used for drug delivery to the correct target sites. The most popular and upcoming drug delivery carriers are mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN). The main reason for its popularity is its ability to be specific and optimize the drug delivery process in a controlled manner. Nowadays, MSNs are widely used to eradicate various microbial infections, especially the ones related to biofilms. Biofilms are sessile groups of cells that live by forming a consortium and exhibit antibacterial resistance (AMR). They exhibit AMR by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and various quorum sensing (QS) signaling molecules. Usually, bacterial and fungal cells are capable of forming biofilms. These biofilms are pathogenic. In the majority of the cases, biofilms cause nosocomial diseases. This review will focus on the antibiofilm activities of MSN, its mechanism of target-specific drug delivery, and its ability to disrupt the bacterial biofilms inhibiting the infection. The review will also discuss various mechanisms for the delivery of pharmaceutical molecules by the MSNs to inhibit the bacterial biofilms, and lastly, we will talk about the different types of MSNs and their antibiofilm activities.

Abstract
Cancer poses a significant challenge to global public health, seriously threatening human health and life. Although various therapeutic strategies, such as chemotherapy (CT), radiotherapy, phototherapy, and starvation therapy, are applied to cancer treatment, their limited therapeutic effect, severe side effects, and unsatisfactory drug release behavior need to be carefully considered. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop efficient drug delivery strategies for improving cancer treatment efficacy and realizing on-demand drug delivery. Notably, pillararenes, as an emerging class of supramolecular macrocycles, possess unique properties of highly tunable structures, superior host-guest chemistry, facile modification, and good biocompatibility, which are widely used in cancer therapy to achieve controllable drug release and reduce the toxic side effects on normal tissues under various internal/external stimuli conditions. This review summarizes the recent advance of stimuli-responsive supramolecular delivery systems (SDSs) based on pillararenes for tumor therapy from the perspectives of different assembly methods and hybrid materials, including molecular-scale SDSs, supramolecular nano self-assembly delivery systems, and nanohybrid SDSs. Moreover, the prospects and critical challenges of stimuli-responsive SDSs based on pillararenes for cancer therapy are also discussed.

Abstract
Over recent decades, synthetic macrocyclic compounds have attracted interest from the scientific community due to their ability to selectively and reversibly form complexes with a huge variety of guest moieties. These molecules have been studied within a wide range of sensing and other fields. Within this review, we will give an overview of the most common synthetic macrocyclic compounds including cyclodextrins, calixarenes, calixresorcinarenes, pillarenes and cucurbiturils. These species all display the ability to form a wide range of complexes. This makes these compounds suitable in the field of cancer detection since they can bind to either cancer cell surfaces or indeed to marker compounds for a wide variety of cancers. The formation of such complexes allows sensitive and selective detection and quantification of such guests. Many of these compounds also show potential for the detection and encapsulation of environmental carcinogens. Furthermore, many anti-cancer drugs, although effective in in vitro tests, are not suitable for use directly for cancer treatment due to low solubility, inherent instability in in vivo environments or an inability to be adsorbed by or transported to the required sites for treatment. The reversible encapsulation of these species in a macrocyclic compound can greatly improve their solubility, stability and transport to required sites where they can be released for maximum therapeutic effect. Within this review, we intend to present the use of these species both in cancer sensing and treatment. The various macrocyclic compound families will be described, along with brief descriptions of their synthesis and properties, with an outline of their use in cancer detection and usage as therapeutic agents. Their use in the sensing of environmental carcinogens as well as their potential utilisation in the clean-up of some of these species will also be discussed.

Abstract
Targeting cancer cells with high specificity is one of the most essential yet challenging goals of tumor therapy. Because different surface receptors, transporters, and integrins are overexpressed specifically on tumor cells, using these tumor cell-specific properties to improve drug targeting efficacy holds particular promise. Targeted fluorescent prodrugs not only improve intracellular accumulation and bioavailability but also report their own localization and activation through real-time changes in fluorescence. In this review, efforts are highlighted to develop innovative targeted fluorescent prodrugs that efficiently accumulate in tumor cells in different organs, including lung cancer, liver cancer, cervical cancer, breast cancer, glioma, and colorectal cancer. The latest progress and advances in chemical design and synthetic considerations in fluorescence prodrug conjugates and how their therapeutic efficacy and fluorescence can be activated by tumor-specific stimuli are reviewed. Additionally, novel perspectives are provided on strategies behind engineered nanoparticle platforms self-assembled from targeted fluorescence prodrugs, and how fluorescence readouts can be used to monitor the position and action of the nanoparticle-mediated delivery of therapeutic agents in preclinical models. Finally, future opportunities for fluorescent prodrug-based strategies and solutions to the challenges of accelerating clinical translation for the treatment of organ-specific tumors are proposed.

Abstract
The limitations of traditional cancer treatments are driving the creation and development of new nanomedicines. At present, with the rapid increase of research on nanomedicine in the field of cancer, there is a lack of intuitive analysis of the development trend, main authors and research hotspots of nanomedicine in the field of cancer, as well as detailed elaboration of possible research hotspots. In this review, data collected from the Web of Science Core Collection database between January 1st, 2000, and December 31st, 2021, were subjected to a bibliometric analysis. The co-authorship, co-citation, and co-occurrence of countries, institutions, authors, literature, and keywords in this subject were examined using VOSviewer, Citespace, and a well-known online bibliometrics platform. We collected 19,654 published papers, China produced the most publications (36.654%, 7204), followed by the United States (29.594%, 5777), and India (7.780%, 1529). An interesting fact is that, despite China having more publications than the United States, the United States still dominates this field, having the highest H-index and the most citations. Acs Nano, Nano Letters, and Biomaterials are the top three academic publications that publish articles on nanomedicine for cancer out of a total of 7580 academic journals. The most significant increases were shown for the keywords "cancer nanomedicine", "tumor microenvironment", "nanoparticles", "prodrug", "targeted nanomedicine", "combination", and "cancer immunotherapy" indicating the promising area of research. Meanwhile, the development prospects and challenges of nanomedicine in cancer are also discussed and provided some solutions to the major obstacles.

Abstract
A supramolecular nano-delivery system GP5⊃Pro-ANI based on the host-guest complex of glycosylated pillar[5]arene (GP5) and an amide linked fluorescent PARP inhibitor (4-amino-1,8-naphthimide, ANI) was constructed. The PARP inhibitor ANI, capable of inhibiting the ability of DNA damage repair, was modified into an AIE prodrug (Pro-ANI), which allows for the visualization of real-time cancer cellular drug uptake tracing and selective drug release. In vitro studies revealed that the DOX-loaded GP5⊃Pro-ANI achieved targeted drug delivery and dual-drug synergistic chemotherapy for DNA repair interference and tumor DNA collapse aggravation, which enhanced the chemosensitivity and overcame tumor drug resistance and migration. This strategy paves a new avenue for utilizing PARP inhibitors to construct AIE supramolecular nano-delivery systems for drug uptake visualization and synergistic chemotherapy.

Abstract
Chitosan-coated poly (methacrylic acid) (PMAA) hollow spheres with 64 ± 3% drug loading capacity and low drug leakage (7 ± 2%, 54 h) were prepared through a novel one-pot two-step self-assembly process. Site-specific doxorubicin (DOX) loading and chitosan coating were achieved by electrostatic interaction to fulfill efficient drug loading and well-controlled drug release behavior. In vitro drug release profile revealed the pH and glutathione (GSH) dual responsive fast triggered drug release behavior, reaching 62 ± 3% during the first 10 h. And completely drug release could be achieved in 54 h. The high drug content and sensitive tumor microenvironment responsibility lead to similar anti-cancer efficiency with free doxorubicin in in vitro MTT assay.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a key role in cancer development and emergence of drug resistance. TME modulation has recently garnered attention as a potential approach for reprogramming the TME and resensitizing resistant neoplastic niches to existing cancer therapies such as immunotherapy or chemotherapy. Nano-based solutions have important advantages over traditional platform and can be specifically targeted and delivered to desired sites. This review explores novel nano-based approaches aimed at targeting and reprogramming aberrant TME components such as macrophages, fibroblasts, tumor vasculature, hypoxia and ROS pathways. We also discuss how nanoplatforms can be combined with existing anti-tumor regimens such as radiotherapy, immunotherapy, phototherapy or chemotherapy to enhance clinical outcomes in solid tumors.

Abstract
Supramolecular prodrug vesicles with efficient property for dual chemotherapy have been successfully constructed based on the orthogonal self-assembly between a water-soluble pillar[5]arene host (WP5) and a betulinic acid guest (BA-D) as well as doxorubicin (DOX). Under the acidic microenvironment of cancer cells, both the encapsulated anticancer drug DOX and prodrug BA-D can be effectively released from DOX-loaded WP5⊃BA-D prodrug vesicles for combinational chemotherapy. Furthermore, bioexperiments indicate that DOX-loaded prodrug vesicles can obviously enhance the anticancer efficiency based on the cooperative effect of DOX and BA-D, while remarkably reducing the systematic toxicity in tumor-mice, displaying great potential applications in combinational chemotherapy for cancer treatments.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) can be used in diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The development of facile and fast synthetic approaches is accordingly desirable towards ready-to-use biomedical materials. We report a practical one-pot method for the synthesis in aqueous media and room temperature of surface-decorated AuNPs with enhanced biological responses. The gold ions could be reduced using only polyethyleneimine (PEI) derivatives containing sugar and-or alkyl chains acting simultaneously as reducing and stabilizing agent, without the aid of any other mediator. The process is possibly potentialized by the presence of the amino groups in the polymer chains which further confer colloidal stability. The kinetics of AuNPs nucleation and growth depends on the chemical nature of the polymer chains. Particularly, the presence of lactose moieties conjugated to the PEI chains conducted to surface-decorated AuNPs with low cytotoxicity that are remarkably faster uptaken by HepG2 cells. These cells overexpress asialoglycoprotein (ASGP-R), a galactose receptor. These findings may kick off significant advances towards the practical and ready-to-use manufacturing of functionalized AuNPs towards cell-targeting since the methodology is applicable for a large variety of other ligands that can be conjugated to the same polymer chains.

Abstract
Advances in nanozyme involve an efficient catalytic process, which has demonstrated great potential in tumor therapy. The key to improving catalytic therapy is to solve the limitation of the tumor microenvironment on Fenton reaction. In this work, Prussian blue nanoparticles doped with different rare earth ions (Yb3+, Gd3+, Tm3+) were screened to perform synergistic of photothermalandcatalytictumortherapy. The optimized catalytic performance can be further enhanced through photothermal effect to maximize the Fenton reaction to solve the limitation of the tumor microenvironment. Yb-PB, with the optimal photothermal and catalytic performance, was screened out. In order to avoid the scavenging effect of glutathione (GSH) on ·OH in tumor cells and the reaction with a bit H2O2 in normal cells, GSH targeted polydopamine (PDA) was wrapped on the surface of Yb-PB to obtain Yb-PB@PDA. It was found that enough hydroxyl radicals (·OH) can be generated even if at high GSH concentration and the NIR irradiation can help produce more ·OH. Cell fluorescence imaging (FOI) and in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) experiments showed the potential application in FOI/MRI dual-mode imaging guided therapy. In vivo anti-tumor experiments showed that Yb-PB@PDA has a satisfactory anti-cancer effect through the combined effect of catalytic/photothermal therapy. Thus, a multifunctional nanozyme for tumor therapy is constructed.

Abstract
Macrocyclic host molecules play the central role in host-guest chemistry and supramolecular chemistry. The highly structural symmetry of macrocyclic host molecules can meet people's pursuit of aesthetics in molecular design, and generally means a balance of design, synthesis, properties and applications. For macrocyclic host molecules with highly symmetrical structures, building blocks, which could be described as repeat units as well, are the most fundamental elements for molecular design. The structural features and recognition ability of macrocyclic host molecules are determined by the building blocks and their connection patterns. Using different building blocks, different macrocyclic host molecules could be designed and synthesized. With decades of developments of host-guest chemistry and supramolecular chemistry, diverse macrocyclic host molecules with different building blocks have been designed and synthesized. Aromatic building blocks are a big family among the various building blocks used in constructing macrocyclic host molecules. In this feature article, the recent developments of macrocyclic host molecules with aromatic building blocks were summarized and discussed.

Abstract
A cancer-mitochondria dual-targeting nanoparticle based on lactose and ferrocenium derivatives conjugated polydopamine (PDA@Lac/Fc/Hyp) was constructed, which exhibited cancer-targeting and mitochondria-targeting ability deriving from lactose and ferrocenium derivatives due to the specific carbohydrate-protein interaction and cationic species properties, respectively. Moreover, PDA@Lac/Fc/Hyp showed great biocompatibility and phototherapeutic efficiency. This work displays a good example of constructing cancer-mitochondria dual-targeting nanoparticle for synergistic phototherapy.

Abstract
Biocompatible nanosystems based on polymeric materials are promising drug delivery nanocarrier candidates for antitumor therapy. However, the efficacy is unsatisfying due to nonspecific accumulation and drug release of the nanoparticles in normal tissue. Recently, the nanosystems that can be triggered by tumor-specific stimuli have drawn great interest for drug delivery applications due to their controllable drug release properties. In this review, various polymers and external stimuli that can be employed to develop stimuli-responsive polymeric nanosystems are discussed, and finally, we delineate the challenges in designing this kind of Nanomedicine to improve the therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
A series of glycoside-peptide conjugates were prepared by engineering at the N-terminus of the natural peptide gramicidin A. The conjugate containing galactose moiety formed a unimolecular transmembrane channel and mediated ion transport to induce apoptosis of cancer cells. More importantly, it exhibited liver cancer cell-targeting behavior due to the galactose-asialoglycoprotein receptor recognition.

Abstract
Herein we present a simple fluorescence quenching method to selectively recognise and determine L-tryptophan (L-Trp) out of other 19 natural amino acids. Methylpillar[5]arene (MeP5), which is employed as a macrocyclic fluorescent probe, exhibits fluorescence activity in the solution of poor solvents because of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect. Fluorescence quenching of MeP5 in the solution of EtOH/CH2Cl2 (98/2, v/v) was observed upon the addition of L-Trp whereas other 19 natural amino acids did not bring about obvious change in fluorescence intensity. 1H NMR titration, fluorescence spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and theoretical analysis revealed that L-Trp can be encapsulated into the cavity of MeP5 to form a stable 1:1 host-guest inclusion complex which accounts for the quenching characteristics. The proposed procedure in this investigation offers an attractive and promising method for the selective detection of L-Trp in a mixture of natural amino acids.

Abstract
The effective uptake and release of hydrophobic antitumor drugs in cancer cells is a practical challenge for tumor chemotherapy. Many methods were developed to conquer it through modifying drug molecules with hydrophilic groups, or fabricating nanodrugs based on hydrophilic materials. In recent years, peptides have attracted significant interest as part of a promising platform for fabricating nanodrugs due to their low cytotoxicity, favorable variability and self-assembly property. In this study, a cystine bridged peptide (CBP) was designed to co-assemble with a hydrophobic antitumor drug curcumin (CCM), to form a tumor-responsive nanodrug. The hydrophilicity of the peptide promotes the water-dispersity of nanodrugs, and the disulfide bond in cystine, which is cleavable by glutathione (GSH), was involved considering the overexpressed GSH in tumor microenvironments. In vitro and in vivo tests on cervical cancer cells revealed that the obtained nanodrug can rapidly dissociate at tumor sites and inhibit the tumor growth with limited side effects on healthy tissues.

Abstract
Active targeting and overcoming multi-drug resistance (MDR) can be some of the important attributes of targeted therapy for metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) treatment. In this study, we constructed a hyaluronic acid (HA)-decorated mixed nanomicelles-encapsulating chemotherapeutic agent paclitaxel (PTX) and P-glycoprotein inhibitor ritonavir (RTV). HA was conjugated to poly (lactide) co-(glycolide) (PLGA) polymer by disulfide bonds (HA-ss-PLGA). HA is a natural ligand for CD44 receptors overexpressed in breast cancer cells. Disulfide bonds undergo rapid reduction in the presence of glutathione, present in breast cancer cells. The addition of RTV can inhibit the P-gp and CYP3A4-mediated metabolism of PTX, thus aiding in reversing MDR and sensitizing the cells toward PTX. An in vitro uptake and cytotoxicity study in MBC MCF-7 and TNBC MDA-MB-231 cell lines demonstrated the effective uptake of the nanomicelles and drug PTX compared to non-neoplastic breast epithelium MCF-12A cells. Interestingly, in vitro potency determination showed a reduction in mitochondrial membrane potential and reactive oxygen species in breast cancer cell lines, indicating effective apoptosis of cancer cells. Thus, stimuli-sensitive nanomicelles along with HA targeting and RTV addition can effectively serve as a chemotherapeutic drug delivery agent for MBC and TNBC.

Abstract
In this study, novel copillar[4+1]arenes were used as central heteromultivalent scaffolds via orthogonal couplings with a series of biologically relevant molecules such as carbohydrates, α-amino acids, biotin and phenylboronic acid. Further modifications by introducing maleimides or cyclooctyne groups provided molecular probes adapted to copper-free click chemistry. An octa-azidated fluorescent rotaxane bearing two distinct ligands was also generated in a fully controlled manner.

Abstract
Background Conventional chemotherapy using small molecular antitumor drugs suffers from several limitations, for instance poor water solubility, high toxicity, and lack of specificity. However, prodrugs constructed by covalent modification of anticancer drugs can overcome these limitations, which are able to release its active form after entering the tumor tissues by specific stimulus response. Methods A GSH-responsive glyco-nanoprodrug system has been constructed by self-assembled of amphiphilic lactosemodified camptothecin prodrug molecular (Lac-SS-CPT) for targeting drug delivery and combination therapy. Results Using HL7702 cells as experimental models, the cytotoxic effects of Lac-SS-CPT were investigated to 10–30 µmol/L for 48 hours. Notably, the cell viability of Lac-SS-CPT to HL7702 cells was higher compared with free CPT which indicated that Lac-SS-CPT can reduce side-effects. Simultaneously, we have evaluated the anticancer efficiency of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX)-loaded Lac-SS-CPT glyco-nanoprodrug system (Lac-SS-CPT@DOX), where Lac-SS-CPT@DOX and free DOX incubated with HpeG2 cells and HL7702 cells for 24, 48, and 72 hours, respectively. It turned out that Lac-SS-CPT@DOX encapsulated anticancer drug (DOX) could decrease DOX side-effect on HL7702 cells and increase DOX anticancer efficiency. More importantly, the CPT and DOX were released from Lac-SS-CPT@DOX in HepG2 cells where a higher GSH concentration exists. Moreover, combination therapy efficiency was evaluated, where free DOX and Lac-SS-CPT@DOX incubated with DOX-resistance HepG2 cells (HepG2-ADR cells), respectively. Conclusion The results revealed that the Lac-SS-CPT@DOX could enhance the cytotoxicity of DOX for HepG2-ADR cells and provided a new idea for designing an advanced nano-prodrug system toward combination therapy.

Abstract
Novel cyclodextrin-prodrug supramolecular nanoparticles (NPs) with cooperative-enhancing cancer therapy were constructed from a reduction-sensitive disulfide bond-linked permethyl-β-cyclodextrin-camptothecin prodrug, water-soluble adamantane-porphyrin photosensitizer, and hyaluronic acid grafted by triphenylphosphine and β-cyclodextrin through an orthogonal host-guest recognition strategy, displaying uniform nanoparticles with a diameter around 100 nm as revealed by dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Compared with 293T normal cells, the supramolecular NPs could be easily taken up by mitochondria of A549 cancer cells, then release the active anticancer drug camptothecin (CPT) in situ via the cleavage of the disulfide bond by the overexpressed glutathione, and could initiate the effective singlet oxygen (1O2) generation by porphyrin under light irradiation, ultimately resulting in severe mitochondrial dysfunction and a rising cell death rate with increasing micromolar concentration of NPs. These multicomponent supramolecular nanoassemblies effectively combined the two-step synergistic chemo-photodynamic therapy of reduction-release of CPT and light-triggered 1O2 generation within cancer cells presenting the synergistic effect of supramolecular nanoparticles on cancer therapy, which provide a new approach for efficient step-by-step cancer therapy.

Abstract
Described here is the first example of the construction of multifunctional drug delivery systems by employing an amphiphilic micromolecule. The intrinsic aggregation-induced emissive and tumor-targeting amphiphilic conjugate of β-d-galactose with tetraphenylethene (TPE-Gal), in which the hydrophobic TPE moiety spontaneously acts as the imaging chromophore and the hydrophilic Gal moiety spontaneously acts as the targeting ligand and galactosidase trigger, can self-assemble into fluorescent vesicles that can efficiently load both water-soluble and -insoluble anticancer drugs. In vitro and in vivo evaluations revealed that the pH/β-d-galactosidase dual-responsive doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded vesicles TPE-Gal@DOX exhibited good targeting effect and higher antitumor efficacy than free DOX. H&E staining analysis displayed remarkable necroses and weak cell proliferation in the tumor area and no toxicity to major organs, indicating the superior targeting antitumor therapeutic efficacy of TPE-Gal@DOX.

Abstract
Supramolecular vesicles are the most popular smart nano-drug delivery systems (SDDs) because of their unique cavities, which have high loading carrying capacity and controlled-release action in response to specific stimuli. These vesicles are constructed from amphiphilic molecules via host-guest complexation, typically with targeted stimuli-responsive units, which are particularly important in biotechnology and biomedicine applications. Amphiphilic pillar[n]arenes, which are novel and functional macrocyclic host molecules, have been widely used to construct supramolecular vesicles because of their intrinsic rigid and symmetrical structure, electron-rich cavities and excellent properties. In this review, we first explain the synthesis of three types of amphiphilic pillar[n]arenes: neutral, anionic and cationic pillar[n]arenes. Second, we examine supramolecular vesicles composed of amphiphilic pillar[n]arenes recently used for the construction of SDDs. In addition, we describe the prospects for multifunctional amphiphilic pillar[n]arenes, particularly their potential in novel applications.

Abstract
Theranostic nano-drug delivery systems are promising candidates for early diagnosis and treatment of tumors. However, it is a great challenge to achieve accurate intracellular delivery and stimuli-responsive drug release with the enhanced anti-tumor effects and reduced side effects. Herein we report the fabrication of polyamide-amine (PAMAM) dendrimer grafted persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) via in situ growth of PAMAM on the surface of PLNPs and its application in targeted bioimaging and drug delivery. The developed PLNPs-PAMAM possesses strong renewable near-infrared persistent luminescence for imaging and gives abundant terminal groups for further functionalization. Aptamer AS1411 coupled to the PLNPs-PAMAM surface can specifically bind to the over-expressed nucleolin on the membrane of tumor cells and improve the intracellular accumulation of the nanoparticles. Doxorubicin (DOX) is loaded on PLNPs-PAMAM by a pH-sensitive hydrazine, can be specifically released in the intracellular acid environment, leading to apoptosis of HeLa tumor cells and inhibition of tumor growth. The as-prepared smart drug delivery nanoplatform with persistent luminescence, PLNPs-PAMAM-AS1411/DOX, shows a good application prospect for precise cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Pathogenic biofilms protected by extracellular polymeric substances frequently compromise the efficiency of antibacterial drugs and severely threaten human health. In this study, we designed a multi-stimuli-responsive magnetic supramolecular nanoplatform to co-deliver large and low molecular weight drugs for synergistic eradication of pathogenic biofilms. This co-delivery platform was composed of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with large pores (MSNLP) capped by β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-modified polyethylenimine (PEICD) and adamantane (ADA)-decorated MSNs containing a magnetic core (MagNP@MSNA) capped by cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]). The host MSNs (H, MSNLP@PEICD) and the guest MSNs (G, MagNP@MSNA-CB[6]) spontaneously form coassemblies (H+G), based on the host-guest interactions between β-CD and ADA. Under the stimulus of pathogen cells together with heating by an alternating magnetic field (AMF), the supramolecular coassemblies released both the large molecular weight antimicrobial peptide melittin (MEL) and the low molecular weight antibiotic ofloxacin (OFL) with high efficiency. As compared to free drugs (MEL and OFL) or unattached MSNs (H or G), the drug-loading H+G coassemblies (H-MEL+G-OFL) exhibited much higher capacity for biofilm eradication, thoroughly removing biofilm biomass and killing the pathogenic cells, and displaying no obvious toxicity to mammalian cells. This strong antibiofilm capacity was severely decreased when the host and guest components were prevented from coassembling but administered simultaneously, revealing the critical role of the supramolecular assembly in biofilm removal. Moreover, an in vivo implantation model showed that the coassemblies eradicated the pathogenic biofilms from the implants, preventing host tissue damage and inflammation. Therefore, the co-delivering and multi-stimuli-responsive nanocarriers could overcome the anti-infection difficulties during treatment of infections because of protective biofilms.

Abstract
The introduction of specific targeting units to polymer nanogels usually requires tedious chemical modifications, which limits flexibility in the design of combinatorial approaches. Here, we present a straightforward and versatile method to reversibly introduce various carbohydrate-based targeting units to a pH-sensitive nanogel via host-guest interactions. Glucose-, mannose-, or fructose-modified pillar[5]arenes can adaptably and conveniently be introduced to the surface of the nanogel. Binding studies between these nanogels and the lectin Concanavalin A revealed a high selectivity and strong interaction with only the mannose-modified nanogels. With the addition of other pillar[5]arenes, the interaction can be influenced proving a dynamic exchange of the targeting units. In comparison with common covalent modifications of polymer nanostructures, the presented combination of straightforward precipitation polymerization and supramolecular interactions promises convenient access to adaptable nanostructures for high-throughput screening of targeted delivery systems.

Abstract
Topoisomerase enzymes have shown unique roles in replication and transcription. These enzymes which were initially found in Escherichia coli have attracted considerable attention as target molecules for cancer therapy. Nowadays, there are several topoisomerase inhibitors in the market to treat or at least control the progression of cancer. However, significant toxicity, low solubility and poor pharmacokinetic properties have limited their wide application and these characteristics need to be improved. Nano-delivery systems have provided an opportunity to modify the intrinsic properties of molecules and also to transfer the toxic agent to the target tissues. These delivery systems leads to the re-introduction of existing molecules present in the market as novel therapeutic agents with different physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties. This review focusses on a variety of nano-delivery vehicles used for the improvement of pharmacological properties of topoisomerase inhibitors and thus enabling their potential application as novel drugs in the market.

Abstract
Planar-chiral pillar[5]arenes bearing β-D-galactose substituents on both rims have been successfully synthesized and effectively separated by silica gel chromatography with a high yield. The obtained (S p )- and (R p )-β-D-galactose functionalized pillar[5]arenes [(S p-D )-GP5 and (R p-D )-GP5] exhibit the S p and R p planar chirality. Furthermore, (S p-D )-GP5 and (R p-D )-GP5 can not racemize according to dynamic 1H NMR and CD spectra. Notably, GP5 is able to capture a guest molecule (DNS-CPT) to form a host-guest supramolecular amphiphile, which can further self-assemble into chiral nanoparticles with the S p and R p planar chirality of (S p-D )-GP5 and (R p-D )-GP5 still being retained, suggesting GP5 could be as reliable chiral sources to transfer the S p and R p planar chirality.

Abstract
An artificial light-harvesting system with sequential energy-transfer process was fabricated based on a supramolecular strategy. Self-assembled from the host-guest complex formed by water-soluble pillar[5]arene (WP5), a bola-type tetraphenylethylene-functionalized dialkyl ammonium derivative (TPEDA), and two fluorescent dyes, Eosin Y (ESY) and Nile Red (NiR), the supramolecular vesicles achieve efficient energy transfer from the AIE guest TPEDA to ESY. ESY can function as a relay to further transfer the energy to the second acceptor NiR and realize a two-step sequential energy-transfer process with good efficiency. By tuning the donor/acceptor ratio, bright white light emission can be successfully achieved with a CIE coordinate of (0.33, 0.33). To better mimic natural photosynthesis and make full use of the harvested energy, the WP5⊃TPEDA-ESY-NiR system can be utilized as a nanoreactor: photocatalyzed dehalogenation of α-bromoacetophenone was realized with 96 % yield in aqueous medium.

Abstract
Gene therapy is manipulation in/of gene expression in specific cells/tissue to treat diseases. This manipulation is carried out by introducing exogenous nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, into the cell. Because of their negative charge and considerable larger size, the delivery of these molecules, in general, should be mediated by gene vectors. Non-viral vectors, as promising delivery systems, have received considerable attention due to their low cytotoxicity and non-immunogenicity. As research continued, more and more functional non-viral vectors have emerged. They not only have the ability to deliver a gene into the cells but also have other functions, such as the performance of fluorescence imaging, which aids in monitoring their progress, targeted delivery, and biodegradation. Recently, many reviews related to non-viral vectors, such as polymers and cationic lipids, have been reported. However, there are few reviews regarding functional non-viral vectors. This review summarizes the common functional non-viral vectors developed in the last ten years and their potential applications in the future. The transfection efficiency and the transport mechanism of these materials were also discussed in detail. We hope that this review can help researchers design more new high-efficiency and low-toxicity multifunctional non-viral vectors, and further accelerate the progress of gene therapy.
