Abstract
Dragon's blood (DB) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) with hemostatic effects and antibacterial properties. However, it is still challenging to use for rapid hemostasis because of its insolubility. In this study, different amounts of DB were loaded on mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) to prepare a series of DB-MSN composites (5DB-MSN, 10DB-MSN, and 20DB-MSN). DB-MSN could quickly release DB and activate the intrinsic blood coagulation cascade simultaneously by DB and MSN. Hemostasis tests demonstrated that DB-MSN showed superior hemostatic effects than either DB or MSNs alone, and 10DB-MSN exhibited the best hemostatic effect. In addition, the antibacterial activities of DB-MSN against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) improved with the increase in DB. Furthermore, the hemolysis assay and cytocompatibility assay demonstrated that all DB-MSNs exhibited excellent biocompatibility. Based on these results, 10DB-MSN is expected to have potential applications for emergency hemostatic and antibacterial treatment in pre-hospital trauma.

Abstract
Untimely or improper treatment of traumatic bleeding may cause secondary injuries and even death. The traditional hemostatic modes can no longer meet requirements of coping with complicated bleeding emergencies. With scientific and technological advancements, a variety of topical hemostatic materials have been investigated involving inorganic, biological, polysaccharide, and carbon-based hemostatic materials. These materials have their respective merits and defects. In this work, the application and mechanism of the major hemostatic materials, especially some hemostatic nanomaterials with excellent adhesion, good biocompatibility, low toxicity, and high adsorption capacity, are summarized. In the future, it is the prospect to develop multifunctional hemostatic materials with hemostasis and antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties for promoting wound healing.

Abstract
With the rapid development and widespread application of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs), understanding the fundamental interactions between ENPs and biological systems is essential to assess and predict the fate of ENPs in vivo. When ENPs are exposed to complex physiological environments, biomolecules quickly and inevitably adsorb to ENPs to form a biomolecule corona, such as a protein corona (PC). The formed PC has a significant effect on the physicochemical properties of ENPs and gives them a brand new identity in the biological environment, which determines the subsequent ENP-cell/tissue/organ interactions. Controlling the formation of PCs is therefore of utmost importance to accurately predict and optimize the behavior of ENPs within living organisms, as well as ensure the safety of their applications. In this review, we provide an overview of the fundamental aspects of the PC, including the formation mechanism, composition, and frequently used characterization techniques. We comprehensively discuss the potential impact of the PC on ENP toxicity, including cytotoxicity, immune response, and so on. Additionally, we summarize recent advancements in manipulating PC formation on ENPs to achieve the desired biological outcomes. We further discuss the challenges and prospects, aiming to provide valuable insights for a better understanding and prediction of ENP behaviors in vivo, as well as the development of low-toxicity ENPs.

Abstract
Haemorrhage is the leading cause of battlefield deaths and second most common cause for civilian mortality worldwide. Biomaterials-based haemostatic agents are used to aid in bleeding stoppage; mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) are candidates for haemostasis. Previously made Tantalum-containing MBG (Ta-MBG) powders' compositions were fabricated as electrospun fibres for haemostatic applications in the present study. The fibres were fabricated to address the challenges associated with the powder form: difficult to compress without gauze, getting washed away in profuse bleeding, generating dust in the surgical environment, and forming thick callus-difficult to remove for surgeons and painful for patients. Ta-MBGs were based on (80-x)SiO2-15CaO-5P2O5-xTa2O5 mol% compositions with x = 0 (0Ta), 0.5 (0.5Ta), 1 (1Ta), and 5 (5Ta) mol%. The present study details the fibres' in vitro analyses, elucidating their cytotoxic effects, and haemostatic capabilities and relating these observations to fibre chemistry and previously fabricated powders of the same glasses. As expected, when Ta addition is increased at the expense of silica, a new FTIR peak (non-bridging oxygen-silicon, Si-NBO) develops and Si-O-Si peaks become wider. Compared to 0Ta and 1Ta fibres, 0.5Ta show Si-O peaks with reduced intensity. The fibres had a weaker intensity of Si-NBO peaks and release fewer ions than powders. A reduced ion profile provides fibres with a stable matrix for clot formation. The ion release profile for 1Ta and 5Ta fibres was significantly lower than 0Ta and 0.5Ta fibres. Ta-MBGs were not found to be cytotoxic to primary rat fibroblasts using a methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay. Furthermore, a modified activated partial thromboplastin time assay analysing the fibrin absorbance showed that the absorption increases from physiological clotting < 0Ta < 0.5Ta < 5Ta < commercial haemostat, Surgical SNoWTM, Ethicon, USA < 1Ta. Higher absorption signifies a stronger clot. It is concluded that Ta-MBG fibres can provide stable matrix for clot formation and 1Ta can potentially enhance clotting best among other Ta-MBGs.

Abstract
In traumatized patients, the primary cause of mortality is uncontrollable continuous bleeding and unexpected intraoperative bleeding which is likely to increase the risk of complications and surgical failure. High expansion sponges are effective clinical practice for the treatment of wound bleeding (irregular/deep/narrow) that are caused by capillaries, veins and even arterioles as they possess a high liquid absorption ratio so can absorb blood platelets easily in comparison with traditional haemostasis treatments, which involve compression, ligation, or electrical coagulation etc. When in contact with blood, haemostatic sponges can cause platelet adhesion, aggregation, and thrombosis, preventing blood from flowing out from wounds, triggering the release of coagulation factors, causing the blood to form a stable polymerized fibre protein, forming blood clots, and achieving the goal of wound bleeding control. Haemostatic sponges are found in a variety of shapes and sizes. The aim of this review is to facilitate an overview of recent research around haemostatic sponge materials, products, and technology. This paper reviews the synthesis, properties, and characteristics of haemostatic sponges, together with the haemostasis mechanisms of haemostatic sponges (composite materials), such as chitosan, cellulose, gelatin, starch, graphene oxide, hyaluronic acid, alginate, polyethylene glycol, silk fibroin, synthetic polymers silver nanoparticles, zinc oxide nanoparticles, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, and silica nanoparticles. Also, this paper reviews commercial sponges and their properties. In addition to this, we discuss various in-vitro/in-vivo approaches for the evaluation of the effect of sponges on haemostasis.

Abstract
Experimental evidence has pointed out silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) possessing a proatherogenic capability. However, the interplay between SiNPs and macrophages in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis was poorly understood. Here, we demonstrated SiNPs could promote macrophage adhesion to endothelial cells, accompanied by elevated Vcam1 and Mcp1. Upon SiNPs stimuli, macrophages manifested enhanced phagocytic activity and a pro-inflammatory phenotype, as reflected by the transcriptional determination of M1/M2-related biomarkers. In particular, our data certified the increased macrophage M1 subset facilitated more lipid accumulation and resultant foam cell transformation in comparison to the M2 phenotype. More importantly, the mechanistic investigations revealed ROS-mediated PPARγ/NF-κB signaling was a key contributor to the above phenomena. That was, SiNPs caused ROS accumulation in macrophages, resulting in the deactivation of PPARγ, nuclear translocation of NF-κB, ultimately contributing to macrophage phenotype shift toward M1 and foam cell transformation. Collectively, we first revealed SiNPs facilitated pro-inflammatory macrophage and foam cell transformation via ROS/PPARγ/NF-κB signaling. These data would provide new insight into the atherogenic property of SiNPs in a macrophage model.

Abstract
The medical disinfection cotton gauze is the most frequently used medical consumables for wound care. Here this ordinary commercial gauze was upgraded to a hemostatic gauze, which was loaded with mesoporous silica through in-situ synthesis and further microwave treatment. The original cotton gauze was pretreated with NaOH solutions for surface activation, soaked in double-silica source precursor solution for moderate in-situ synthesis, treated with microwave for quick template removement and dehydration. The final obtained hemostatic gauze (MS-G1) showed superior physical, biocompatible and hemostatic advantages. The newborn mesoporous silica was firmly anchored onto the cotton fiber surface with <20% leaching after 10 min of sonication. The microwave treatment not only shortened the time for template removal but also promotes the formation of mesoporous structure. The clotting blood time (CBT) of MS-G1 were only (62.00 ± 5.56 s), which was 23.14% shorter than that of original medical gauze, and even 3.6% shorter than Combat Gauze (CG). MS-G1 also showed excellent biocompatibility in cytotoxicity tests of L-929 cells, with a 116% proliferation rate at the concentration of 5 mg/mL. Furthermore, the hemostatic performance was explored on a rabbit wound model of hemorrhagic liver injury, and MS-G1 showed both shorter hemostasis time (113.75 s) and less blood loss (1.69 g) than that of CG (180.00 s, 5.13 g). The hemostatic gauze anchored with mesoporous silica was expected to be an excellent prehospital hemostatic dressing for field first aid.

Abstract
For systemically delivered nanoparticles to reach target tissues, they must first circulate long enough to reach the target and extravasate there. A challenge is that the particles end up engaging with serum proteins and undergo immune cell recognition and premature clearance. The serum protein binding, also known as protein corona formation, is difficult to prevent, even with artificial protection via "stealth" coating. Protein corona may be problematic as it can interfere with the interaction of targeting ligands with tissue-specific receptors and abrogate the so-called active targeting process, hence, the efficiency of drug delivery. However, recent studies show that serum protein binding to circulating nanoparticles may be actively exploited to enhance their downstream delivery. This review summarizes known issues of protein corona and traditional strategies to control the corona, such as avoiding or overriding its formation, as well as emerging efforts to enhance drug delivery to target organs via nanoparticles. It concludes with a discussion of prevailing challenges in exploiting protein corona for nanoparticle development.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are recognized as one of the most beneficial tools for biomedicine, especially in theranostic applications. Even though SPIONs have excellent properties regarding their biocompatibility and unique magnetic properties, they lack stability in biological fluids. To stabilize and increase the specificity of the SPIONs to target desirable cells or tissues, several surface coatings have been introduced. These surface coatings can lead to different preferences of serum protein bindings, which ultimately determine their behaviors in vitro and in vivo. Thus, understanding the interaction of SPIONs with biological systems is important for their biocompatible design and clinical applications. In this study, using proteomic analyses, we analyzed the protein corona fingerprints on SPIONs with two different coatings, including citrate and riboflavin, that have been widely used as surface coatings and ligands for enhancing cellular uptake in breast cancer cells. Though both citrate-coated SPIONs (C-SPIONs) and riboflavin-coated SPIONs (Rf-SPIONs) showed similar sizes and zeta potentials, we found that Rf-SPIONs adsorbed more serum proteins than bare SPIONs (B-SPIONs) or C-SPIONs, which was likely due to the higher hydrophobicity of the riboflavin. The enriched proteins consisted mainly of immune-responsive and blood coagulation proteins with different fingerprint profiles. Cellular uptake studies in MCF-7 breast cancer cells comparing the activities of preformed and in situ coronas showed different uptake behaviors, suggesting the role of protein corona formation in promoting the interaction between the SPIONs and the cells. The results obtained here provide the essential information for further development of the potential strategy to reduce or stimulate immune response in vivo to increase therapeutic applications of both C-SPIONs and Rf-SPIONs.

Abstract
Nanoparticles have a variety of useful functions. They have already been put to practical use in products in many industrial arenas, such as the cosmetics and food fields. Therefore, we cannot avoid the unintentional nanoparticle exposure of vulnerable people such as pregnant women and infants, and the importance of evaluating the safety of such vulnerable generations, who are highly sensitive to chemical substances, has been pointed out worldwide. However, it is still difficult to determine the hazards posed by nanoparticle exposure in everyday life. From this perspective, to analyze the risk from nanoparticles to vulnerable generations, nano-safety science research has been conducted through the collection of toxicity information on nanoparticles based on their physicochemical properties and kinetics via the association analysis of physicochemical properties, kinetics, and toxicity. The results of this nano-safety science research have been used in nano-safety design research to develop safer forms of nanoparticles. The findings of these studies will not only provide insights that will help us to formulate new policies for the risk management of nanoparticles; they will also lead directly to the development of sustainable nanotechnology (nanotechnology that can be safely, usefully, and sustainably used). These developments will contribute not only to the development of the nano-industry and the promotion of its social acceptance, but also to future developments in the field of health science.

Abstract
This study evaluates compositions of tantalum-containing mesoporous bioactive glass (Ta-MBG) powders using a porcine fatal liver injury model. The powders based on (80-x)SiO2-15CaO-5P2O5-xTa2O5 compositions with x = 0 (0Ta/Ta-free), 1 (1Ta), and 5 (5Ta) mol% were made using a sol-gel process. A class IV hemorrhage condition was simulated on the animals; hemodynamic data and biochemical analysis confirmed the life-threatening condition. Ta-MBGs were able to stop the bleeding within 10 min of their application while the bleeds in the absence of any intervention or in the presence of a commercial agent, AristaTM (Bard Davol Inc., Rhode Island, USA) continued for up to 45 min. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging of the blood clots showed that the presence of Ta-MBGs did not affect clot morphology. Rather, the connections seen between fibrin fibers of the blood clot and Ta-MBG powders point towards the powders' surfaces embracing fibrin. Histopathological analysis of the liver tissue showed 5Ta as the only composition reducing parenchymal hemorrhage and necrosis extent of the tissue after their application. Additionally, 5Ta was also able to form an adherent clot in worst-case scenario bleeding where no adherent clot was seen before the powder was applied. In vivo results from the present study agree with in vitro results of the previous study that 5Ta was the best Ta-MBG composition for hemostatic purposes. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
The biomolecular corona that forms on nanomedicines in different physiological and pathological environments confers a new biological identity. How the recipient biological system's state can potentially affect nanomedicine corona formation, and how this can be modulated, remains obscure. With this perspective, this review summarizes the current knowledge about the content of biological fluids in various compartments and how they can be affected by pathological states, thus impacting biomolecular corona formation. The content of representative biological fluids is explored, and the urgency of integrating corona formation, as an essential component of nanomedicine designs for effective cargo delivery, is highlighted.

Abstract
Abstract
Due to their innovative functions, the use of nanoparticles in various industries has been expanding. However, a key concern is whether nanoparticles induce unexpected biological effects. Although many studies have focused on innate immunity, information on whether nanoparticles induce biological responses through effects on acquired immunity is sparse. Here, to assess the effects of amorphous silica nanoparticles on acquired immunity, we analyzed changes in acute toxicities after pretreatment with amorphous silica nanoparticles (50 nm in diameter; nSP50). Pretreatment with nSP50 biochemically and pathologically exacerbated nSP50-induced hepatic damage in immunocompetent mice. However, pretreatment with nSP50 did not exacerbate hepatic damage in immunodeficient mice. Consistent with this, the depletion of CD8+ cells with an anti-CD8 antibody in animals pretreated with nSP50 resulted in lower plasma levels of hepatic injury markers such as ALT and AST after an intravenous administration than treatment with an isotype-matched control antibody. Finally, stimulation of splenocytes promoted the release of IFN-γ in nSP50-pretreated mice regardless of the stimulator used. Moreover, the blockade of IFN-γ decreased plasma levels of ALT and AST levels in nSP50-pretreated mice. Collectively, these data show that nSP50-induced acquired immunity leads to exacerbation of hepatic damage through the activation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes.

Abstract
Understanding the basic interactions between engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) and biological systems is essential for evaluating ENPs’ safety and developing better nanomedicine. Profound interactions between ENPs and biomolecules such as proteins are inevitable to occur when ENPs are administered or exposed to biological systems, for example, through intravenous injection, oral, or respiration. As a key component of these interactions, protein corona (PC) is immediately formed surrounding the outlayer of ENPs. PC formation is crucial because it gives ENPs a new biological identity by altering not only the physiochemical properties, but also the biobehaviors of ENPs. In the past two decades, most investigations about PC formation were carried out with in vitro systems which could not represent the true events occurring within in vivo systems. Most recently, studies of in vivo PC formation were reported, and it was found that the protein compositions and structures were very different from those formed in vitro. Herein, we provide an in-time review of the recent investigations of this in vivo PC formation of ENPs. In this review, commonly used characterization methods and compositions of in vivo PC are summarized firstly. Next, we highlight the impacts of the in vivo PC formation on absorption, blood circulation, biodistribution, metabolism, and toxicity of administered ENPs. We also introduce the applications of modulating in vivo PC formation in nanomedicine. We further discuss the challenges and future perspectives.

Abstract
Amorphous silica nanoparticle (SiNPs) has tremendous potential for a host of applications, while its mass production, broad application and environmental release inevitably increase the risk of human exposure. SiNPs could enter into the human body through different routes such as inhalation, ingestion, skin contact and even injection for medical applications. The cardiovascular system is gradually recognized as one of the primary sites for engineered NPs exerting adverse effects. Accumulating epidemiological or experimental evidence support the association between SiNPs exposure and adverse cardiovascular effects. However, this topic is still in its infancy, and the literature shows high inter-study variability and even contradictory results. New challenges still present in the safety evaluation of SiNPs, and its toxicological mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, scientific papers related to cardiovascular studies of SiNPs in vivo and in vitro were selected, and the updated particle-caused cardiovascular toxicity and potential mechanisms were summarized. Moreover, the understanding of how factors primarily including exposure dose, route of administration, particle size and surface properties, influence the interaction between SiNPs and cardiovascular system was discussed. In particular, the adverse outcome pathway (AOP) framework by which SiNPs cause deleterious effects in the cardiovascular system was described, aiming to provide useful information necessary for the regulatory decision and to guide a safer application of nanotechnology.

Abstract
It is important to control bleeding and prevent bacterial infection for the wound people. The effective way is to fabricate an asymmetric Janus matrial for realizing rapid hemostasis and promoting wound healing. Herein, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) modified by tannic acid (TA), silver nanoparticles, and calcium ions (Ca-TA-MSN@Ag) with Janus structure were prepared via redox and coordination reactions. These anisotropic snowman-like particles possess obvious chemical compartition, in which silver nanoparticles are embedding in large MSN body. During blood coagulation, TA with catechol structure acts as a vasoconstrictor. Then, Ca-TA-MSN@Ag with high specific surface area (510.62 m2·g-1) and large pore volume (0.48 m3·g-1) induces red blood cell aggregation to form three-dimensional network structure with fibrin. Additionally, calcium ions as clotting factor IV and negative charge of Ca-TA-MSN@Ag accelerate coagulation cascade reaction. These three synergistic effects on animal model showed that hemostatic time of Ca-TA-MSN@Ag was shortened by nearly 50% compared to that of MSN. Moreover, Ca-TA-MSN@Ag possessed good blood compatibility, biocompatibility and antibacterial activity (~99%) against E. coli and S. aureus. The anisotropic Janus particles of Ca-TA-MSN@Ag with hemostatic performance and antibacterial activity will be a promising biomaterial for designing wound dressings in clinical application.

Abstract
Once nanoparticles (NPs) contact with the biological fluids, the proteins immediately adsorb onto their surface, forming a layer called protein corona (PC), which bestows the biological identity on NPs. Importantly, the NPs-PC complex is the true identity of NPs in physiological environment. Based on the affinity and the binding and dissociation rate, PC is classified into soft protein corona, hard protein corona, and interfacial protein corona. Especially, the hard PC, a protein layer relatively stable and closer to their surface, plays particularly important role in the biological effects of the complex. However, the abundant corona proteins rarely correspond to the most abundant proteins found in biological fluids. The composition profile, formation and conformational change of PC can be affected by many factors. Here, the influence factors, not only the nature of NPs, but also surface chemistry and biological medium, are discussed. Likewise, the formed PC influences the interaction between NPs and cells, and the associated subsequent cellular uptake and cytotoxicity. The uncontrolled PC formation may induce undesirable and sometimes opposite results: increasing or inhibiting cellular uptake, hindering active targeting or contributing to passive targeting, mitigating or aggravating cytotoxicity, and stimulating or mitigating the immune response. In the present review, we discuss these aspects and hope to provide a valuable reference for controlling protein adsorption, predicting their behavior in vivo experiments and designing lower toxicity and enhanced targeting nanomedical materials for nanomedicine.

Abstract
Inorganic materials are receiving significant interest in medicine given their usefulness for therapeutic applications such as targeted drug delivery, active pharmaceutical carriers and medical imaging. However, poor knowledge of the side effects related to their use is an obstacle to clinical translation. For the development of molecular drugs, the concept of safe-by-design has become an efficient pharmaceutical strategy with the aim of reducing costs, which can also accelerate the translation into the market. In the case of materials, the application these approaches is hampered by poor knowledge of how the physical and chemical properties of the material trigger the biological response. Hemocompatibility is a crucial aspect to take into consideration for those materials that are intended for medical applications. The formation of nanoparticle agglomerates can cause severe side effects that may induce occlusion of blood vessels and thrombotic events. Additionally, nanoparticles can interfere with the coagulation cascade causing both pro- and anti-coagulant properties. There is contrasting evidence on how the physicochemical properties of the material modulate these effects. In this work, we developed two sets of tailored carbon and silica nanoparticles with three different diameters in the 100-500 nm range with the purpose of investigating the role of surface curvature and chemistry on platelet aggregation, activation and adhesion. Substantial differences were found in the composition of the protein corona depending on the chemical nature of the nanoparticles, while the surface curvature was found to play a minor role. On the other hand, large carbon nanoparticles (but not small carbon nanoparticles or silica nanoparticles) have a clear tendency to form aggregates both in plasma and blood. This effect was observed both in the presence or absence of platelets and was independent of platelet activation. Overall, the results presented herein suggest the existence of independent modes of action that are differently affected by the physicochemical properties of the materials, potentially leading to vessel occlusion and/or formation of thrombi in vivo.

Abstract
Engineering nanomaterials are increasingly considered promising and powerful biomedical tools or devices for imaging, drug delivery, and cancer therapies, but few nanomaterials have been tested in clinical trials. This wide gap between bench discoveries and clinical application is mainly due to the limited understanding of the biological identity of nanomaterials. When they are exposed to the human body, nanoparticles inevitably interact with bodily fluids and thereby adsorb hundreds of biomolecules. A "biomolecular corona" forms on the surface of nanomaterials and confers a new biological identity for NPs, which determines the following biological events: cellular uptake, immune response, biodistribution, clearance, and toxicity. A deep and thorough understanding of the biological effects triggered by the protein corona in vivo will speed up their translation to the clinic. To date, nearly all studies have attempted to characterize the components of protein coronas depending on different physiochemical properties of NPs. Herein, recent advances are reviewed in order to better understand the impact of the biological effects of the nanoparticle-corona on nanomedicine applications. The recent development of the impact of protein corona formation on the pharmacokinetics of nanomedicines is also highlighted. Finally, the challenges and opportunities of nanomedicine toward future clinical applications are discussed.

Abstract
Massive bleeding control and anti-infection are the major challenges for urgent trauma with deep and noncompressible hemorrhage in both clinic and battlefield. Inspired by the coordinated primarily blood clot formation and secondly coagulation cascade activation in natural hemostasis process, an injectable, quaternized hydroxyethyl cellulose/mesocellular silica foam (MCF) hydrogel sponge (QHM) for both hemorrhage control and antibacterial activities were prepared via one-pot radical graft copolymerization. The as-prepared QHMs exhibited instant water-triggered expansion and superabsorbent capacity and thereby effectively facilitated blood components concentration. Moreover, the QHM1 with appropriate amount of MCF (9.82 w/w %) could further activate the coagulation factors. Synergistically, the QHM1 could reduce the plasma clotting time to 59 ± 4% in vitro and showed less blood loss than commercially available hemostatics in vivo noncompressible hemorrhage models of lethal rabbit-liver defect. Furthermore, the QHM with a quaternary ammonium groups density of 2.732 mmol/g exhibited remarkable antibacterial activities and excellent cytocompatibility. With the efficient hemostasis efficacy and excellent antibacterial behavior, QHM dramatically facilitated the wound healing in a full-thickness skin defect model in vivo. Thus, this QHM represents a promising hemostatic in more widespread clinical application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Safety evaluation is a prerequisite for nanomaterials in a wide range of fields, including chemical industries, medicine or food sciences. Previously, we had demonstrated that SiNPs could trigger the thrombotic effects in vivo, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. This study was aimed to explore and verify the role of miR-451a on SiNPs-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction and pre-thrombotic state. RESULTS The color doppler ultrasound results showed that SiNPs had the inhibitory effects on aorta velocity and cardiac output. The histological and ultrastructural analysis manifested that SiNPs could induce the vascular endothelial damage. In addition, the expression level of MDA was elevated while the activity of SOD and GSH-Px were decreased in aortic arch triggered by SiNPs, accompanied with the release of iNOS and decline of eNOS in blood serum. The immunohistochemistry results showed that the positive staining of TF and PECAM-1 were elevated in a dose-dependent manner induced by SiNPs. The activation of coagulation function occurred via shortened TT, PT and APTT while the FIB was elevated markedly induced by SiNPs. Coagulant factors (TF, FXa and vWF) and PLT numbers were increased whereas the levels of anticoagulant factors (ATIII, TFPI and t-PA) were decreased. Microarray analysis showed that the down-regulated miR-451a could target the gene expression of IL6R, which further activated the JAK/STAT signaling pathway triggered by SiNPs. Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay confirmed the directly target relationship between miR-451a and IL6R. Additionally, the chemical mimics of miR-451a led to attenuate the expression of IL6R/STAT/TF signaling pathway in vitro and in vivo induced by SiNPs, while the inhibitor of miR-451a enhanced the activation of IL6R/STAT/TF signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS In summary, SiNPs could accelerate the vascular endothelial dysfunction and prethrombotic state via miR-451a negative regulating the IL6R/STAT/TF signaling pathway.

Abstract
Quick hemostasis plays a very important role in preventing hemorrhagic shock and death by controlling blood loss from trauma in civil and military accidents. An ideal quick hemostat should have tissue-adhesive functional groups, clotting factor activating components, and a plasma non-permeable hydrophobic layer. Inspired by the adhesive behavior of mussels, a novel efficient hemostat of urushiol-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN@U) with a core-shell structure was synthesized and their hemostatic performance was evaluated for the first time. MSN@U could form an amphipathic Janus membrane (a hydrophobic layer and a hydrophilic layer in one membrane) by interfacial self-assembly. The morphology and structure of MSN@U were characterized. The results showed that MSN@U possessed a large specific surface area of 448.91 m2 g-1 and a rich porous structure with an average pore diameter of 3.94 nm. The hydrophilic catechol groups and the long hydrophobic alkyl groups of urushiol allowed MSN@U to self-assemble at the blood/air interface. The former made MSN@U tightly adhere onto blood vessel tissue through covalent bonds, while the latter formed a hydrophobic barrier layer which hindered blood from oozing. Meanwhile, MSN@U would accelerate clotting cascade reactions. These three effects made MSN@U a very quick hemostat with a hemostatic time of 22 ± 2 s on a rat liver laceration. Both in vitro and in vivo tests showed that they had a better hemostatic effect and blood compatibility than MSN. Cell viability evaluations indicated that MSN@U had no cytotoxicity. MSN@U will be a safe and promising hemostatic agent for clinical applications.

Abstract
Rapid bleeding control is increasingly important in current civilian and military emergency medicine, but the rapid hemostasis achieved with current hemostatic products is often unsafe. In this study, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with large pores were coordinated with a glycerol-modified N-alkylated chitosan sponge (GACS) to develop a rapid and safe hemostatic sponge. Due to its coagulation-promoting structure, MSN-GACS exhibited unique hemostatic potency in serial in vitro coagulation tests. In addition to enhanced platelet adhesion and whole blood absorption, MSN-GACS exhibited better biocompatibility than Combat Gauze (CG), which is popular in the US military. Furthermore, in rabbit femoral artery and liver injury in vivo models, MSN-GACS showed better hemostatic efficiency and lower cardiovascular toxicity than CG. In conclusion, MSN-GACS is an excellent prehospital hemostatic agent for first-aid applications.

Abstract
Recent advances in nanotechnology have led to the development of nanoparticles with innovative functions in various fields. However, the biological effects of nanoparticles—particularly those on the fetus—need to be investigated in detail, because several previous studies have shown that various nanoparticles induce pregnancy complications in mice. In this regard, our previous findings in mice suggested that the increase in peripheral neutrophil count induced by treatment with silica nanoparticles with a diameter of 70 nm (nSP70) may play a role in the associated pregnancy complications. Therefore, here, we sought to define the role of neutrophils in nSP70-induced pregnancy complications. The peripheral neutrophil count in pregnant BALB/c mice at 24 h after treatment with nSP70 was significantly higher than in saline-treated mice. In addition, maternal body weight, uterine weight, and the number of fetuses in nSP70-treated mice pretreated with anti-antibodies, which deplete neutrophils, were significantly lower than those in nSP70-treated mice pretreated with phosphate-buffered saline or isotype-matched control antibodies. Histology revealed that neutrophil depletion increased nSP70-induced placental damage from the decidua through the spongiotrophoblast layer and narrowed spiral arteries in the placentae. In addition, depletion of neutrophils augmented nSP70-induced cytotoxicity to fetal vessels, which were covered with endothelium. The rate of apoptotic cell death was significantly higher in the placentae of anti-nSP70-treated mice than in those from mice pretreated with isotype-matched control antibodies. Therefore, impairment of placental vessels and apoptotic cell death due to nSP70 exposure is exacerbated in the placentae of nSP70-treated mice pretreated with anti-antibodies. Depletion of neutrophils worsens nSP70-induced pregnancy complications in mice; this exacerbation was due to enhanced impairment of placental vessels and increased apoptotic cell death in maternal placentae. Our results provide basic information regarding the mechanism underlying silica-nanoparticle-induced pregnancy complications.

Abstract
Humoral and cellular host defense mechanisms including diverse phagocytes, leukocytes, and immune cells have evolved over millions of years to protect the body from microbes and other external and internal threats. These policing forces recognize engineered sub-micron drug delivery systems (DDS) as such a threat, and react accordingly. This leads to impediment of the therapeutic action, extensively studied and discussed in the literature. Here, we focus on side effects of DDS interactions with host defenses. We argue that for nanomedicine to reach its clinical potential, the field must redouble its efforts in understanding the interaction between drug delivery systems and the host defenses, so that we can engineer safer interventions with the greatest potential for clinical success.

Abstract
Nanoparticulate drug carriers exploit the enhanced permeability of tumor vasculature to achieve selective delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs. For this purpose, nanoparticles (NPs) need to circulate with a long half-life, enter tumors via the permeable vasculature and stay in tumors via favorable interactions with tumor cells. To fulfill these requirements, albumin-coated nanocrystal formulation of paclitaxel (PTX), Cim-F-alb, featuring high drug loading content, physical stability in serum, and surface-bound albumin in its native conformation is prepared. The pharmacokinetic and biodistribution (PK/BD) profiles of Cim-F-alb in a mouse model of B16F10 melanoma show that Cim-F-alb exhibits a longer plasma half-life and a greater PTX deposition in tumors than Abraxane by ≈1.5 and ≈4.6 fold, respectively. Biolayer interferometry analysis indicates that Cim-F-alb has less interaction with serum proteins than nanocrystals lacking albumin coating, indicating the protective effect of the surface-bound albumin against opsonization in the initial deposition phase. With the advantageous PK/BD profiles, Cim-F-alb shows greater and longer-lasting anticancer efficacy than Abraxane at the equivalent dose. This study demonstrates the significance of controlling circulation stability and surface property of NPs in efficient drug delivery to tumors and enhanced anticancer efficacy.

Abstract
We previously reported that unmodified silica nanoparticles with diameters of 70 nm (nSP70) induced liver damage in mice, whereas nSP70 modified with carboxyl or amino groups did not. In addition, we have found that both unmodified and modified nSP70s localize in both Kupffer cells and parenchymal hepatocytes. We therefore evaluated the contributions of nSP70 uptake by these cell populations to liver damage. To this end, we pretreated mice with gadolinium (III) chloride hydrate (GdCl3) to prevent nSP70 uptake by Kupffer cells, subsequently injected the mice with either type of nSP70, and then assessed plasma levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT). In mice given GdCl3, unmodified nSP70 increased ALT levels. From these data, we hypothesized that in GdCl3-treated mice, the unmodified nSP70 that was prevented from entering Kupffer cells was shunted to parenchymal hepatocytes, where it induced cytotoxicity and increased liver damage. In contrast, GdCl3 pretreatment had no effect on ALT levels in mice injected with surface-modified nSP70s, suggesting that modified nSP70s spared parenchymal hepatocytes and thus induced negligible liver damage. In cytotoxicity analyses, the viability of a parenchymal hepatocyte line was greater when exposed to surface-modified nSP70s than to unmodified nSP70s. These findings imply that the decreased liver damage associated with surface-modified compared with unmodified nSP70 is attributable to decreased cytotoxicity to parenchymal hepatocytes.

Abstract
In the past decade, nanotechnology has advanced rapidly, and many products containing nanoparticles are now an important part of our daily lives. Despite our increasing exposure to nanoparticles, however, information regarding the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity of nanoparticles remains limited. In this review, we introduce our group's ongoing research into the biological effects and toxicities of nanoparticles, which we broadly refer to as "nano-safety research." In addition to determining the biological effects of nanoparticles and elucidating the underlying mechanisms of those effects, we are also exploring the associations among the physicochemical properties and kinetics of nanoparticles. Furthermore, we are currently developing a battery of biomarkers that we hope will be used to predict the biological effects of nanoparticles during the early stages of development. Our research provides valuable basic information on the safety of nanoparticles. We hope that this information will be used for the development of better assessments of nanoparticles safety and for the creation of more appropriate regulations to ensure not only the safety but also the sustainability of nanotechnology.

Abstract
Many of the beneficial and toxic biological effects of nanoparticles have been shown to have a negative correlation with particle size. However, few studies have demonstrated biological effects that only occur at specific nanoparticle sizes. Further elucidation of the size-specific biological effects of nanoparticles may reveal not only unknown toxicities, but also novel benefits of nanoparticles. We used surface-unmodified silica particles with a wide range of diameters and narrow size intervals between the diameters (10, 30, 50, 70, 100, 300, and 1000 nm) to investigate the relationship between particle size and acute toxicity after intravenous administration in mice. Negative correlations between particle size and thrombocytopenia, liver damage, and lethal toxicity were observed. However, a specific size-effect was observed for the severity of hypothermia, where silica nanoparticles with a diameter of 50 nm induced the most severe hypothermia. Further investigation revealed that this hypothermia was mediated not by histamine, but by platelet-activating factor, and it was independent of the thrombocytopenia and the liver damage. In addition, macrophages/Kupffer cells and platelets, but not neutrophils, play a critical role in the hypothermia. The present results reveal that silica nanoparticles have particle size-specific toxicity in mice, suggesting that other types of nanoparticles may also have biological effects that only manifest at specific particle sizes. Further study of the size-specific effects of nanoparticles is essential for safer and more effective nanomedicines.

Abstract
Over the past decade, a vast array of nanomaterials has been created through the development of nanotechnology. With the increasing application of these nanomaterials in various fields, such as foods, cosmetics, and medicines, there has been concern about their safety, that is, nanotoxicity. Therefore, there is an urgent need to collect information about the biological effects of nanomaterials so that we can exploit their potential benefits and design safer nanomaterials, while avoiding nanotoxicity as a result of inhalation or skin exposure. In particular, the immunomodulating effect of nanomaterials is one of most interesting aspects of nanotoxicity. However, the immunomodulating effects of nanomaterials through skin exposure have not been adequately discussed compared with the effects of inhalation exposure, because skin penetration by nanomaterials is thought to be extremely low under normal conditions. On the other hand, the immunomodulatory effects of nanomaterials via skin may cause severe problems for people with impaired skin barrier function, because some nanomaterials could penetrate the deep layers of their allergic or damaged skin. In addition, some studies, including ours, have shown that nanomaterials could exhibit significant immunomodulating effects even if they do not penetrate the skin. In this review, we summarize our current knowledge of the allergic responses induced by nanomaterials upon skin exposure. First, we discuss nanomaterial penetration of the intact or impaired skin barrier. Next, we describe the immunomodulating effects of nanomaterials, focusing on the sensitization potential of nanomaterials and the effects of co-exposure of nanomaterials with substances such as chemical sensitizers or allergens, on the onset of allergy, following skin exposure. Finally, we discuss the potential mechanisms underlying the immunomodulating effects of nanomaterials by describing the involvement of the protein corona in the interaction of nanomaterials with biological components and by presenting recent data about the adjuvant effects of well-characterized particle adjuvant, aluminum salt, as an example of immunomodulatory particulate.
