Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a reactive oxygen species produced by cellular metabolism can be used in antitumor therapy. However, the concentration of intracellular H2O2 limits its application. Some materials could enhance the concentration of intracellular H2O2 to strengthen antitumor therapy. In this review, the recent advances in H2O2-supplying materials in terms of promoting intracellular H2O2 production and exogenous H2O2 supply are summarized. Then the mechanism of H2O2-supplying materials for tumor therapy is discussed from three aspects: reconstruction of the tumor hypoxia microenvironment, enhancement of oxidative stress, and the intrinsic anti-tumor ability of H2O2-supplying materials. In addition, the application of H2O2-supplying materials for tumor therapy is discussed. Finally, the future of H2O2-supplying materials is presented. This review aims to provide a novel idea for the application of H2O2-supplying materials in tumor therapy.

Abstract
The efficacy of the dendritic cell (DC) has failed to meet expectations thus far, and crucial problems such as the immature state of DCs, low targeting efficiency, insufficient number of dendritic cells, and microenvironment are still the current focus. To address these problems, we developed two self-assembling peptides, RLDI and RQDT, that mimic extracellular matrix (ECM). These peptides can be self-assembled into highly ordered three-dimensional nanofiber scaffold structures, where RLDI can form gelation immediately. In addition, we found that RLDI and RQDT enhance the biological function of DCs, including releasing antigens sustainably, adhering to DCs, promoting the maturation of DCs, and increasing the ability of DC antigen presentation. Moreover, peptide hydrogel-based DC treatment significantly achieved prophylactic and treatment effects on colon cancer. These results have certain implications for the design of new broad-spectrum vaccines in the future.

Abstract
Artificial peroxisome plays an important part in protocell system construction and disease therapy. However, it remains an enormous challenge to exploit a practicable artificial peroxisome with multiple and stable activities. Nanozymes with multienzyme mimetic activities stand out for artificial peroxisome preparation. Herein, a novel nanozyme─Co-nanoparticle-embedded N-enriched carbon nanocubes (Co,N-CNC) decorated by hollow NiPt nanospheres (hNiPt@Co-NC) with featured tetra-enzyme mimetic activities of natural peroxisome─was prepared. Due to the synergistic effect of hollow NiPt nanospheres (hNiPtNS) and cubic porous Co,N-CNC support, hNiPt@Co-NC exhibited oxidase (OXD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activities with comparable catalytic efficiency, enabling it to be a competitive candidate for artificial peroxisome investigation. Based on the high OXD-mimetic activity of hNiPt@Co-NC, a facile colorimetric platform was proposed for reduced glutathione (GSH) detection with a wide linear range (0.1-5 μM, 5-100 μM) and a low detection limit (27 nM). Thus, the hNiPt@Co-NC with tetra-enzyme mimetic activities possessed bright prospects in diversified biotechnological applications, including artificial organelles, biosensing, and medical diagnostics.

Abstract
Thermal ablation is one of the important treatments for liver tumors, but the postoperative recurrence rate is high. Thermal ablation has been reported to trigger the release of tumor-associated antigens, which in turn initiates antitumor immune response. However, this anti-tumor immune effect cannot effectively suppress tumor recurrence due to the obstacles of antigen presentation, the formation of tumor-suppressive immune microenvironment, and the hypoxic and hypovascular tumor microenvironment. Therefore, using immunotherapy to enhance the antitumor immune effect after thermal ablation is a potential strategy to improve the prognosis of tumor patients. However, free immune drugs have the disadvantages of poor targeting and short half-life. Nanomaterials have the advantages of strong modifiability, controllable drug ratio, and excellent targeting. Based on the characteristics of the tumor immune microenvironment after thermal ablation, scholars have designed nano-immunopharmaceuticals that can increase the tumor permeability of immune drugs, stimulate antigen presentation, and reshape the tumor immune microenvironment. This review focuses on the role of nanomaterials in tumor ablation combined with immunotherapy for liver tumors.

Abstract
Immunotherapy is becoming a new standard of care for multiple cancers, while several limitations are impending its further clinical success. Immunotherapeutic agents often have inappropriate pharmacokinetics on their own and/or exhibit limited specificity to tumor cells, leading to severe immuno-related adverse effects and limited efficacy. Suitable formulating strategies that confer prolonged contact with or efficient proliferation in tumors while reducing exposure to normal tissues are highly worthy to explore. With the assistance of biomaterial carriers, targeted therapy can be achieved artificially by implanting or injecting drug depots into desired sites, about which the wisdoms in literature have been rich. The relevant results have suggested a "local but systemic" effect, that is, local replenishment of immune modulators achieves a high treatment efficacy that also governs distant metastases, thereby building another rationale for localized delivery. Particularly, implantable scaffolds have been further engineered to recruit disseminated tumor cells with an efficiency high enough to reduce tumor burdens at typical metastatic organs, and simultaneously provide diagnostic signals. This review introduces recent advances in this emerging area along with a perspective on the opportunities and challenges in the way to clinical application.
