Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are appealing materials as assistant to resolve environmental pollution issues and as recyclable catalysts for the oxidative degradation of resistant contaminants. Moreover, they can significantly influence the advancement of medical applications for imaging, diagnostics, medication administration, and biosensing. On the other hand, due to unique features, excellent biocompatibility, high curie temperatures and low cytotoxicity of the Iron-based nanoparticles, they have received increasing attention in recent years. Using an external magnetic field, in which the ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (FMNPs) in the reaction mixtures can be easily removed, make them more efficient approach than the conventional method for separating the catalyst particles by centrifugation or filtration. Ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (FMNPs) provide various advantages in food processing, environmental issues, pharmaceutical industry, sample preparation, wastewater management, water purification, illness therapy, identification of disease, tissue engineering, and biosensor creation for healthcare monitoring. Modification of FMNPs with the proper functional groups and surface modification techniques play a significant role in boosting their capability. Due to flexibility of FMNPs in functionalization and synthesis, it is possible to make customized FMNPs that can be utilized in variety of applications. This review focuses on synthesis, modifications, and applications of Iron-based nanoparticles.

Abstract
Brain cancers, especially glioblastoma multiforme, are associated with poor prognosis due to the limited efficacy of current therapies. Nanomedicine has emerged as a versatile technology to treat various diseases, including cancers, and has played an indispensable role in combatting the COVID-19 pandemic as evidenced by the role that lipid nanocarrier-based vaccines have played. The tunability of nanocarrier physicochemical properties -including size, shape, surface chemistry, and drug release kinetics- has resulted in the development of a wide range of nanocarriers for brain cancer treatment. These nanocarriers can improve the pharmacokinetics of drugs, increase blood-brain barrier transfer efficiency, and specifically target brain cancer cells. These unique features would potentially allow for more efficient treatment of brain cancer with fewer side effects and better therapeutic outcomes. This review provides an overview of brain cancers, current therapeutic options, and challenges to efficient brain cancer treatment. The latest advances in nanomedicine strategies are investigated with an emphasis on targeted and stimulus-responsive nanocarriers and their potential for clinical translation.

Magnetite nanoparticles: an emerging adjunctive tool for the improvement of cancer immunotherapy. EXPLORATION OF TARGETED ANTI-TUMOR THERAPY 2024; 5:316-331.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy has emerged as a groundbreaking field, offering promising and transformative tools for oncological research and treatment. However, it faces several limitations, including variations in cancer types, dependence on the tumor microenvironments (TMEs), immune cell exhaustion, and adverse reactions. Magnetic nanoparticles, particularly magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs), with established pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics for clinical use, hold great promise in this context and are now being explored for therapeutic aims. Numerous preclinical studies have illustrated their efficacy in enhancing immunotherapy through various strategies, such as modulating leukocyte functions, creating favorable TMEs for cytotoxic T lymphocytes, combining with monoclonal antibodies, and stimulating the immune response via magnetic hyperthermia (MHT) treatment (Front Immunol. 2021;12:701485. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.701485). However, the current clinical trials of MNPs are mostly for diagnostic aims and as a tool for generating hyperthermia for tumor ablation. With concerns about the adverse effects of MNPs in the in vivo systems, clinical translation and clinical study of MNP-boosted immunotherapy remains limited. The lack of extensive clinical investigations poses a current barrier to patient application. Urgent efforts are needed to ascertain both the efficacy of MNP-enhanced immunotherapy and its safety profile in combination therapy. This article reviews the roles, potential, and challenges of using MNPs in advancing cancer immunotherapy. The application of MNPs in boosting immunotherapy, and its perspective role in research and development is also discussed.

Abstract
Worldwide, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) account for the vast majority of deaths and place enormous financial strains on healthcare systems. Gold nanoparticles, quantum dots, polymeric nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, and lipids are innovative nanomaterials promising in tackling CVDs. In the setting of CVDs, these nanomaterials actively impact cellular responses due to their distinctive properties, including surface energy and topographies. Opportunities to more precisely target CVDs have arisen due to recent developments in nanomaterial science, which have introduced fresh approaches. An in-depth familiarity with the illness and its targeted mechanisms is necessary to use nanomaterials in CVDs effectively. We support the academic community's efforts to prioritize Nano-technological techniques in addressing risk factors linked with cardiovascular diseases, acknowledging the far-reaching effects of these conditions. The significant impact of nanotechnology on the early detection and treatment of cardiovascular diseases highlights the critical need for novel approaches to this pressing health problem, which is affecting people worldwide.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-coated magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been reported to show potential applications in many biomedical fields. In this report, we have studied the interactions between magnetite (Fe3O4) MNPs functionalized with polysaccharides (diethylamino-ethyl dextran, DEAE-D or chitosan, CHI) with different membranes models by Langmuir isotherms, incorporation experiments, and brewster angle microscopy (BAM). In this report, zwitterionic 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphoethanolamine (DSPE) and anionic 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (DSPA) phospholipid, were used to form membrane models. Incorporation experiments (π-t) as well as the compression isotherms demonstrate positive interactions between MNPs and DSPE or DSPA monolayers. The study assessed the impact of varying initial surface pressure on a preformed phospholipid monolayer to determine the maximum insertion pressure (MIP) and synergy. Our findings indicate that the primary driving force of the coated MNPs incorporation into the monolayer predominantly stems from electrostatic interaction. The drop in the subphase pH from 6.0 to 4.0 led to an enhancement of the MIP value for DSPA phospholipid monolayer. On the other hand, for DSPE, the drop in the pH does not affect the MIP values. Besides, the presence of a magnetic field induces an enhancement of the insertion process of the MNPs into DSPA preformed monolayer, demonstrating that a previous interaction between MNPs and phospholipid preformed monolayer needs to take place to enhance the incorporation process. This work opens novel perspectives for the research of the influence of magnetic fields on the incorporation of MNPs into model membranes.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has attained significant attention from researchers in past decades due to its numerous advantages, such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, and improved stability over conventional drug delivery systems. The fabrication of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs), including carbon nanotubes (CNTs), fullerenes, metallic and metal oxide-based NPs, has been steadily increasing day due to their wide range of applications from household to industrial applications. Fabricated ENPs can release different materials into the environment during their fabrication process. The effect of such materials on the environment is the primary concern with due diligence on the safety and efficacy of prepared NPs. In addition, an understanding of chemistry, reactivity, fabrication process, and viable mechanism of NPs involved in the interaction with the environment is very important. To date, only a limited number of techniques are available to assess ENPs in the natural environment which makes it difficult to ascertain the impact of ENPs in natural settings. This review extensively examines the environmental effects of ENPs and briefly discusses useful tools for determining NP size, surface charge, surface area, and external appearance. In conclusion, the review highlights the potential risks associated with ENPs and suggests possible solutions.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles have been central to numerous investigations in the past few decades for their use in many applications, such as drug delivery, medical diagnostics, magnetic separation, and material science. However, the properties of single magnetic nanoparticles are sometimes not sufficient to accomplish tasks where a strong magnetic response is required. In light of this, aggregated magnetite nanoparticles have been proposed as an alternative advanced material, which may expand and combine some of the advantages of single magnetic nanoparticles, including superparamagnetism, with an enhanced magnetic moment and increased colloidal stability. This review comprehensively discusses the current literature on aggregates made of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. This review is divided into three sections. First, the current synthetic strategies for magnetite nanoparticle aggregates are discussed, together with the influence of different stabilizers on the primary crystals and the final aggregate size and morphology. The second section is dedicated to computational approaches, such as density functional methods (which permit accurate predictions of electronic and magnetic properties and shed light on the behavior of surfactant molecules on iron oxide surfaces) and molecular dynamics simulations (which provide additional insight into the influence of ligands on the surface chemistry of iron oxide nanocrystals). The last section discusses current and possible future applications of iron oxide magnetic aggregates, including wastewater treatment, water purification, medical applications, and magnetic aggregates for materials displaying structural colors.

Abstract
Magnetic solid phase extraction with the functionalization of protein onto micro- or nano-particles as a probe is favorable for the discovery of new drugs from complicated natural products. Herein, we aimed to develop a rapid method by immobilizing halogenated alkane dehalogenase (Halo)-tagged calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) directly out of crude cell lysates onto the surface of magnetic microspheres (MM) with no need to purify protein. Thereby we achieved CaSR-functionalized MM for revealing adsorption characteristics of agonist neomycin and screening ligands from herbal medicine Radix Astragali (RA). About 43.87 mg CaSR could be immobilized per 1 g MM within 30 min, and the acquired CaSR-functionalized MM showed good stability and activity for 4 weeks. The maximum adsorption capacity of neomycin on CaSR-functionalized MM was determined as 4.70 × 10-4 ~ 3.96 × 10-4 mol/g within 277 ~ 310 K, and its adsorption isotherm characteristics described best by the Temkin model were further validated using isothermal titration calorimetry. It was inferred that CaSR's affinity for neomycin was driven by electrostatic forces in a spontaneous process when the system reached an equilibrium state. Moreover, the ligands from the RA extract were screened, three of which were assigned as astragaloside IV, ononin, and calycosin based on HPLC-MS. Our findings demonstrated that the functionalization of a receptor onto magnetic materials designed as an affinity probe has the capability to recognize its agonist and capture the ligands selectively from complex matrices like herbs.

Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia (MHT) is a promising cancer treatment because tumor tissue can be specifically damaged by utilizing the heat generated by nano-heaters such as magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) under an alternating magnetic field. MNPs are taken up by cancer cells, enabling intracellular MHT. Subcellular localization of MNPs can affect the efficiency of intracellular MHT. In this study, we attempted to improve the therapeutic efficacy of MHT by using mitochondria-targeting MNPs. Mitochondria-targeting MNPs were prepared by the modification of carboxyl phospholipid polymers containing triphenylphosphonium (TPP) moieties that accumulate in mitochondria. The mitochondrial localization of polymer-modified MNPs was supported by transmission electron microscopy observations of murine colon cancer CT26 cells treated with polymer-modified MNPs. In vitro and in vivo MHT using polymer-modified MNPs revealed that the therapeutic effects were enhanced by introducing TPP. Our results indicate the validity of mitochondria targeting in enhancing the therapeutic outcome of MHT. These findings will pave the way for developing a new strategy for the surface design of MNPs and therapeutic strategies for MHT.

Purified enzyme was assesed with SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy. In this study, the separation of phenylalanine dehydrogenase (PheDH) by Fe3O4@SiO2@NiAl -LDH was performed and the effect of microsphere was investigated on the kinetic and structural properties of PheDH. After purification, kinetic parameters such as Km, Vmax, Kcat, kcat/Km, optimum temperature, thermal stability, and and activation energy were evaluated and compared according to the mentioned methods. The interaction between the enzyme and the microsphere displayed a high performance in protein binding capacity. The results also revealed that the kinetic parameters of the enzyme changed in a dose-dependent manner in the presence of a microsphere. Moreover, the results of intrinsic fluorescence and Circular Dichroism (CD) confirmed the structural changes of the protein in the interaction with the microsphere.

Abstract
Magneto-responsive soft hydrogels are used for a number of biomedical applications, e.g., magnetic hyperthermia, drug delivery, tissue engineering, and neuromodulation. In this work, this type of hydrogel has been fabricated from hyaluronan (HA) filled with a binary system of Al2O3 nanoparticles and multicore magnetic particles (MCPs), which were obtained by clustering of superparamagnetic iron oxide FeOx NPs. It was established that the presence of diamagnetic Al2O3 has several positive effects: it enhances the hydrogel storage modulus and long-term stability in the cell cultivation medium; prevents the magnetic interaction among the MCPs. The HA hydrogel provides rapid heating of 0.3 °C per min under exposure to low amplitude radio frequency alternating magnetic field. Furthermore, the magneto-responsive hydrogel was successfully used to encapsulate cells and extrusion-based 3D printing with 87±6% cell viability, thus providing a bio-ink. The combination of high heating efficiency, softness, cytocompatibility, and 3D printability of magnetic HA hydrogel leads to a material suitable for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Core-shell magnetic air-stable nanoparticles have attracted increasing interest in recent years. Attaining a satisfactory distribution of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) in polymeric matrices is difficult due to magnetically induced aggregation, and supporting the MNPs on a nonmagnetic core-shell is a well-established strategy. In order to obtain magnetically active polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites by melt mixing, the thermal reduction of graphene oxides (TrGO) at two different temperatures (600 and 1000 °C) was carried out, and, subsequently, metallic nanoparticles (Co or Ni) were dispersed on them. The XRD patterns of the nanoparticles show the characteristic peaks of the graphene, Co, and Ni nanoparticles, where the estimated sizes of Ni and Co were 3.59 and 4.25 nm, respectively. The Raman spectroscopy presents typical D and G bands of graphene materials as well as the corresponding peaks of Ni and Co nanoparticles. Elemental and surface area studies show that the carbon content and surface area increase with thermal reduction, as expected, following a reduction in the surface area by the support of MNPs. Atomic absorption spectroscopy demonstrates about 9-12 wt % metallic nanoparticles supported on the TrGO surface, showing that the reduction of GO at two different temperatures has no significant effect on the support of metallic nanoparticles. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy shows that the addition of a filler does not alter the chemical structure of the polymer. Scanning electron microscopy of the fracture interface of the samples demonstrates consistent dispersion of the filler in the polymer. The TGA analysis shows that, with the incorporation of the filler, the initial (Tonset) and maximum (Tmax) degradation temperatures of the PP nanocomposites increase up to 34 and 19 °C, respectively. The DSC results present an improvement in the crystallization temperature and percent crystallinity. The filler addition slightly enhances the elastic modulus of the nanocomposites. The results of the water contact angle confirm that the prepared nanocomposites are hydrophilic. Importantly, the diamagnetic matrix is transformed into a ferromagnetic one with the addition of the magnetic filler.

Abstract
Tuning surface properties of nanoparticles by introducing charge, surface functionalization, or polymer grafting is central to their stability and applications. Here, we show that introducing non-DLVO forces like steric and hydrophobic effects in charged silica nanoparticle suspensions through interaction with a nonionic surfactant brings about interesting modulations in their interparticle interaction and phase behavior. The Ludox TM-40 negatively charged silica suspensions thus exhibit liquid-liquid phase separation driven by the onset of interparticle attraction in the system in the presence of the triblock copolymer Pluronic P123. The observed phase separations are thermoresponsive in nature, as they are associated with lower consolute temperatures and a re-entrant behavior as a function of temperature. The nanoparticle-Pluronic system thus undergoes transformation from one-phase to two-phase and then back to one-phase with monotonic increase in temperature. Evolution of the interparticle interaction in the composite system is investigated by dynamic light scattering (DLS), small angle neutron scattering (SANS), zeta potential, rheological, and fluorescence spectroscopy studies. Zeta potential studies show that the charge interaction in the system is partially mitigated through adsorption of a Pluronic micellar layer on the nanoparticle surfaces. Contrast-matching SANS studies suggest that hydrophobic interactions between the adsorbed micellar layer bring about the onset of interparticle attraction in the system. The results are unique and not reported hitherto in charged silica nanoparticle systems.

Abstract
The conversion of paramagnetic solid iron oxides to magnetic iron oxides has drawn considerable interest, but it's still challenging to carry out without heat treatment or irradiation. In this work, solid amorphous iron oxide chrysanthemum-like nanosheets synthesized by a smart redox strategy at the interface of a soap-free emulsion are magnetized at room temperature and under ambient pressure. An amorphous FeOOH hollow shell with needles towards water is produced by the reaction of cumyl hydroperoxide (CHPO) and iron(II) sulfate (FeSO4) at the interface of the emulsion generated by ultrasound and torn up into chrysanthemum-like nanosheets simultaneously. With the presence of noble metal ions, such as Au3+, the magnetization of the nanosheets was carried out as soon as sodium borohydride (NaBH4) was introduced into the dispersion. The magnetic chrysanthemum-like nanosheets present saturation magnetization (Ms) of 32 emu g-1 and can be placed linearly in a magnetic field.

Abstract
Thermal noise magnetometry (TNM) is a recently developed magnetic characterization technique where thermally induced fluctuations in magnetization are measured to gain insight into nanomagnetic structures like magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). Due to the stochastic nature of the method, its signal amplitude scales with the square of the volume of the individual fluctuators, which makes the method therefore extra attractive to study MNP clustering and aggregation processes. Until now, TNM signals have exclusively been detected by using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) sensor. In contrast, we present here a tabletop setup using optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) in a compact magnetic shield, as a flexible alternative. The agreement between results obtained with both measurement systems is shown for different commercially available MNP samples. We argue that the OPM setup with low complexity complements the SQUID setup with high sensitivity and bandwidth. Furthermore, the OPM tabletop setup is well suited to monitor aggregation processes because of its excellent sensitivity in lower frequencies. As a proof of concept, we show the changes in the noise spectrum for three different MNP immobilization and clustering processes. From our results, we conclude that the tabletop setup offers a flexible and widely adoptable measurement unit to monitor the immobilization, aggregation, and clustering of MNPs for different applications, including interactions of the particles with biological systems and the long-term stability of magnetic samples.

Abstract
Anti-cancer drugs are mostly limited in their use due to poor physicochemical and biopharmaceutical properties. Their lower solubility is the most common hurdle limiting their use upto their potential. In the recent years, the cyclodextrin (CD) complexation have emerged as existing approach to overcome the problem of poor solubility. CD-based nano-technological approaches are safe, stable and showed well in vivo tolerance and greater payload for encapsulation of hydrophobic drugs for the targeted delivery. They are generally chosen due to their ability to get self-assembled to form liposomes, nanoparticles, micelles and nano-sponges etc. This review paper describes a birds-eye view of the various CD-based nano-technological approaches applied for the delivery of anti-cancer moieties to the desired target such as CD based liposomes, niosomes, niosoponges, micelles, nanoparticles, monoclonal antibody, magnetic nanoparticles, small interfering RNA, nanorods, miscellaneous formulation of anti-cancer drugs containing CD. Moreover, the author also summarizes the various shortcomings of such a system and their way ahead.

Abstract
Natural polymers have received a great deal of interest for their potential use in the encapsulation and transportation of pharmaceuticals and other bioactive compounds for disease treatment. In this perspective, the drug delivery systems (DDS) constructed by representative natural polymers from animals (gelatin and hyaluronic acid), plants (pectin and starch), and microbes (Xanthan gum and Dextran) are provided. In order to enhance the efficiency of polymers in DDS by delivering the medicine to the right location, reducing the medication's adverse effects on neighboring organs or tissues, and controlling the medication's release to stop the cycle of over- and under-dosing, the incorporation of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles with the polymers has engaged the most consideration due to their rare characteristics, such as easy separation, superparamagnetism, and high surface area. This review is designed to report the recent progress of natural polymeric Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles in drug delivery applications, based on different polymers' origins.

Abstract
Recent reports show air pollutant magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) in the brains of people with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Considering various field applications of MNPs because of developments in nanotechnology, the aim of this study is to identify major trends and data gaps in research on magnetite to allow for relevant environmental and health risk assessment. Herein, a bibliometric and systematic analysis of the published magnetite literature (n = 31 567) between 1990 to 2020 is completed. Following appraisal, publications (n = 244) are grouped into four time periods with the main research theme identified for each as 1990-1997 "oxides," 1998-2005 "ferric oxide," 2006-2013 "pathology," and 2014-2020 "animal model." Magnetite formation and catalytic activity dominate the first two time periods, with the last two focusing on the exploitation of nanoparticle engineering. Japan and China have the highest number of citations for articles published. Longitudinal analysis indicates that magnetite research for the past 30 years shifted from environmental and industrial applications, to biomedical and its potential toxic effects. Therefore, whilst this study presents the research profile of different countries, the development in research on MNPs, it also reveals that further studies on the effects of MNPs on human health is much needed.

Abstract
Labeling stem cells with magnetic nanoparticles is a promising technique for in vivo tracking and magnetic targeting of transplanted stem cells, which is critical for improving the therapeutic efficacy of cell therapy. However, conventional endocytic labeling with relatively poor labeling efficiency and a short labeling lifetime has hindered the implementation of these innovative enhancements in stem-cell-mediated regenerative medicine. Herein, we describe an advanced magnetothermal approach to label mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) efficiently by local induction of heat-enhanced membrane permeability for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tracking and targeted therapy of stroke, where biocompatible γ-phase, ferrimagnetic vortex-domain iron oxide nanorings (γ-FVIOs) with superior magnetoresponsive properties were used as a tracer. This approach facilitates a safe and efficient labeling of γ-FVIOs as high as 150 pg of Fe per cell without affecting the MSCs proliferation and differentiation, which is 3.44-fold higher than that by endocytosis labeling. Such a high labeling efficiency not only enables the ultrasensitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detection of sub-10 cells and long-term tracking of transplanted MSCs over 10 weeks but also endows transplanted MSCs with a magnetic manipulation ability in vivo. A proof-of-concept study using a rat stroke model showed that the labeled MSCs facilitated MRI tracking and magnetic targeting for efficient replacement therapy with a significantly reduced dosage of 5 × 104 transplanted cells. The findings in this study have demonstrated the great potential of the magnetothermal approach as an efficient labeling technique for future clinical usage.

Molecular Events in the Melanogenesis Cascade as Novel Melanoma-Targeted Small Molecules: Principle and Development. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14225588.

Abstract
Malignant melanoma is one of the most malignant of all cancers. Melanoma occurs at the epidermo-dermal interface of the skin and mucosa, where small vessels and lymphatics are abundant. Consequently, from the onset of the disease, melanoma easily metastasizes to other organs throughout the body via lymphatic and blood circulation. At present, the most effective treatment method is surgical resection, and other attempted methods, such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and gene therapy, have not yet produced sufficient results. Since melanogenesis is a unique biochemical pathway that functions only in melanocytes and their neoplastic counterparts, melanoma cells, the development of drugs that target melanogenesis is a promising area of research. Melanin consists of small-molecule derivatives that are always synthesized by melanoma cells. Amelanosis reflects the macroscopic visibility of color changes (hypomelanosis). Under microscopy, melanin pigments and their precursors are present in amelanotic melanoma cells. Tumors can be easily targeted by small molecules that chemically mimic melanogenic substrates. In addition, small-molecule melanin metabolites are toxic to melanocytes and melanoma cells and can kill them. This review describes our development of chemo-thermo-immunotherapy based on the synthesis of melanogenesis-based small-molecule derivatives and conjugation to magnetite nanoparticles. We also introduce the other melanogenesis-related chemotherapy and thermal medicine approaches and discuss currently introduced targeted therapies with immune checkpoint inhibitors for unresectable/metastatic melanoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE The development of two novel pH-only and pH- and thermo-responsive theranostic nanoparticle (NP) formulations to deliver an anticancer drug and track the accumulation and therapeutic efficacy of the formulations through inherent fluorescence. METHODS A pH-responsive formulation was synthesized from biodegradable photoluminescent polymer (BPLP) and sodium bicarbonate (SBC) via an emulsion technique, while a thermoresponsive BPLP copolymer (TFP) and SBC were used to synthesize a dual-stimuli responsive formulation via free radical co-polymerization. Cisplatin was employed as a model drug and encapsulated during synthesis. Size, surface charge, morphology, pH-dependent fluorescence, lower critical solution temperature (LCST; TFP NPs only), cytocompatibility and in vitro uptake, drug release kinetics and anticancer efficacy were assessed. RESULTS While all BPLP-SBC and TFP-SBC combinations produced spherical nanoparticles of a size between 200-300 nm, optimal polymer-SBC ratios were selected for further study. Of these, the optimal BPLP-SBC formulation was found to be cytocompatible against primary Type-1 alveolar epithelial cells (AT1) up to 100 μg/mL, and demonstrated sustained drug release over 14 days, dose-dependent uptake, and marked pH-dependent A549 cancer cell killing (72 vs. 24% cell viability, at pH 7.4 vs. 6.0). The optimal TFP-SBC formulation showed excellent cytocompatibility against AT1 cells up to 500 μg/mL, sustained release characteristics, dose-dependent uptake, pH-dependent (78% at pH 7.4 vs. 64% at pH 6.0 at 37°C) and marked temperature-dependent A549 cancer cell killing (64% at 37°C vs. 37% viability at pH 6.0, 41°C). CONCLUSIONS In all, both formulations hold promise as inherently fluorescent, stimuli-responsive theranostic platforms for passively targeted anti-cancer therapy.

Abstract
Ocular drug delivery is one of the most challenging endeavors among the various available drug delivery systems. Despite having suitable drugs for the treatment of ophthalmic disease, we have not yet succeeded in achieving a proper drug delivery approach with the least adverse effects. Nanotechnology offers great opportunities to overwhelm the restrictions of common ocular delivery systems, including low therapeutic effects and adverse effects because of invasive surgery or systemic exposure. The present review is dedicated to highlighting and updating the recent achievements of nano-based technologies for ocular disease diagnosis and treatment. While further effort remains, the progress illustrated here might pave the way to new and very useful ocular nanomedicines.

Abstract
The manufacturing rate of nanoparticles (10–100 nm) is steadily increasing due to their extensive applications in the fabrication of nanoproducts related to pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, medical devices, paints and pigments, energy storage etc. An increase in research related to nanotechnology is also a cause for the production and disposal of nanomaterials at the lab scale. As a result, contamination of environmental matrices with nanoparticles becomes inevitable, and the understanding of the risk of nanoecotoxicology is getting larger attention. In this context, focusing on the environmental hazards is essential. Hence, this manuscript aims to review the toxic effects of nanoparticles on soil, water, aquatic, and terrestrial organisms. The effects of toxicity on vertebrates, invertebrates, and plants and the source of exposure, environmental and biological dynamics, and the adverse effects of some nanoparticles are discussed.

Abstract
In this paper, we present the obtaining of Fe3O4-PAA–(HP-γ-CDs) ferrimagnetic nanobioconjugates (PAA: polyacrylic acid, HP-γ-CDs: hydroxypropyl gamma-cyclodextrins) in a hybrid core-shell biostructure (core: inorganic Fe3O4 nanoparticles, and shell: organic PAA–(HP-γ-CDs)) and their use in superparamagnetic hyperthermia without cellular toxicity and with increased efficacy for future alternative cancer therapy. In order to design the optimal experimental conditions for obtaining nanobioconjugates and then superparamagnetic hyperthermia (SPMHT), we used molecular docking simulation and computational assessment of the maximum specific loss power (SLP) that led to nanoparticles’ heating. The nanoparticles and nanobioconjugates obtained were studied and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transformed-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and magnetic measurements (MMs). The cell viability of the nanoparticles and nanobioconjugates was assessed by means of the MTT assay using human immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT) as an in vitro model. Superparamagnetic hyperthermia with nanoparticles and nanobioconjugates was obtained experimentally in a magnetic field of 15.92 kA/m and frequency of 312.2 kHz for the magnetic nanoparticle core with a (average) diameter of 15.8 nm, which resulted in the maximum hyperthermic effect that led to a temperature of ~42.5 °C necessary in the therapy of tumors in a short time so as not to affect healthy tissues. The biological screening of Fe3O4-PAA nanoparticles and PAA–(HP-γ-CDs) nanobioconjugates showed no cytotoxic effect on HaCaT cells for a time interval of 24 h, both under standard (37 °C) and hyperthermia conditions (42.5 °C). Thus, Fe3O4-PA–(HP-γ-CDs) ferrimagnetic nanobioconjugates can be used successfully in superparamagnetic hyperthermia without toxicity and with increased efficiency due to the small layer thickness of the PAA–(HP-γ-CDs) shell, which is suitable in this alternative therapeutic technique.

Abstract
From the global perspective, stroke refers to a highly common cause of disability and death. Ischemic stroke (IS), attributed to blood vessel blockage, preventing the flow of blood to brain, acts as the most common form of stroke. Thus far, thrombolytic therapy is the only clinical treatment for IS with the approval from the FDA. Moreover, the physiology barrier complicates therapeutically and diagnostically related intervention development of IS. Accordingly, developing efficient and powerful curative approaches for IS diagnosis and treatment is urgently required. The advent of nanotechnology has brought dawn and hope to better curative and imaging forms for the management of IS. This work reviews the recent advances and challenges correlated with the nano drug delivery system for IS therapy and diagnosis. The overview of the current knowledge of the important molecular pathological mechanisms in cerebral ischemia and how the drugs cross the blood brain barrier will also be briefly summarized.

Abstract
We present a targeted drug delivery system for therapy and diagnostics that is based on a combination of contrasting, cytotoxic, and cancer-cell-targeting properties of multifunctional carriers. The system uses multilayered polymer microcapsules loaded with magnetite and doxorubicin. Loading of magnetite nanoparticles into the polymer shell by freezing-induced loading (FIL) allowed the loading efficiency to be increased 5-fold, compared with the widely used layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly. FIL also improved the photoacoustic signal and particle mobility in a magnetic field gradient, a result unachievable by the LBL alone. For targeted delivery of the carriers to cancer cells, the carrier surface was modified with a designed ankyrin repeat protein (DARPin) directed toward the epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM). Flow cytometry measurements showed that the DARPin-coated capsules specifically interacted with the surface of EpCAM-overexpressing human cancer cells such as MCF7. In vivo and ex vivo biodistribution studies in FvB mice showed that the carrier surface modification with DARPin changed the biodistribution of the capsules toward epithelial cells. In particular, the capsules accumulated substantially in the lungs─a result that can be effectively used in targeted lung cancer therapy. The results of this work may aid in the further development of the "magic bullet" concept and may bring the quality of personalized medicine to another level.

Abstract
We previously reported that delivery of nickel nanoparticles (NiNPs) and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) into the lungs of mice synergistically increased IL-6 production and inflammation, and male mice were more susceptible than female mice. The primary goal of this study was to utilize an in vitro human lung epithelial cell model (BEAS-2B) to investigate the intracellular signaling mechanisms that mediate IL-6 production by LPS and NiNPs. We also investigated the effect of sex hormones on NiNP and LPS-induced IL-6 production in vitro. LPS and NiNPs synergistically induced IL-6 mRNA and protein in BEAS-2B cells. TPCA-1, a dual inhibitor of IKK-2 and STAT3, blocked the synergistic increase in IL-6 caused by LPS and NiNPs, abolished STAT3 activation, and reduced C/EBPβ. Conversely, SC144, an inhibitor of the gp130 component of the IL-6 receptor, enhanced IL-6 production induced by LPS and NiNPs. Treatment of BEAS-2B cells with sex hormones (17β-estradiol, progesterone, or testosterone) or the anti-oxidant NAC, had no effect on IL-6 induction by LPS and NiNPs. These data suggest that LPS and NiNPs induce IL-6 via STAT3 and C/EBPβ in BEAS-2B cells. While BEAS-2B cells are a suitable model to study mechanisms of IL-6 production, they do not appear to be suitable for studying the effect of sex hormones.

Abstract
Digital in-line holography (DIH) combined with a Wiener filter has been applied to measure particle size and position in the flow inside a capillary model, seeded with magnetic particles (3µm) and with solid opaque particles that simulated red and white cells. The proposed filtering process takes advantage of the linearity implicit in the numerical reconstruction of the object complex amplitude. A modified DIH set-up, with a tilted illumination beam, was used as it presents two main advantages: it solves the twin image issue associated to in-line holography and increases the out-of-plane resolution. Experiments show that the proposed method discriminates particles within a range from 3 to 30µm with a sensitivity of 0.5µm.

Abstract
Multifunctional nanocomposites that combine both magnetic and photoluminescent (PL) properties provide significant advantages for nanomedical applications. In this work, a one-stage synthesis of magneto-luminescent nanocomposites (MLNC) with subsequent stabilization is proposed. Microwave synthesis of magnetic carbon dots (M-CDs) was carried out using precursors of carbon dots and magnetic nanoparticles. The effect of stabilization on the morphological and optical properties of nanocomposites has been evaluated. Both types of nanocomposites demonstrate magnetic and PL properties simultaneously. The resulting MLNCs demonstrated excellent solubility in water, tunable PL with a quantum yield of up to 28%, high photostability, and good cytocompatibility. Meanwhile, confocal fluorescence imaging showed that M-CDs were localized in the cell nuclei. Consequently, the multifunctional nanocomposites M-CDs are promising candidates for bioimaging and therapy.

Superparamagnetic Hyperthermia Study with Cobalt Ferrite Nanoparticles Covered with γ-Cyclodextrins by Computer Simulation for Application in Alternative Cancer Therapy.

Abstract
In this paper, we present a study by computer simulation on superparamagnetic hyperthermia with CoFe2O4 ferrimagnetic nanoparticles coated with biocompatible gamma-cyclodextrins (γ-CDs) to be used in alternative cancer therapy with increased efficacy and non-toxicity. The specific loss power that leads to the heating of nanoparticles in superparamagnetic hyperthermia using CoFe2O4–γ-CDs was analyzed in detail depending on the size of the nanoparticles, the thickness of the γ-CDs layer on the nanoparticle surface, the amplitude and frequency of the alternating magnetic field, and the packing fraction of nanoparticles, in order to find the proper conditions in which the specific loss power is maximal. We found that the maximum specific loss power was determined by the Brown magnetic relaxation processes, and the maximum power obtained was significantly higher than that which would be obtained by the Néel relaxation processes under the same conditions. Moreover, increasing the amplitude of the magnetic field led to a significant decrease in the optimal diameter at which the maximum specific loss power is obtained (e.g., for 500 kHz frequency the optimal diameter decreased from 13.6 nm to 9.8 nm when the field increased from 10 kA/m to 50 kA/m), constituting a major advantage in magnetic hyperthermia for its optimization, in contrast to the known results in the absence of cyclodextrins from the surface of immobilized nanoparticles of CoFe2O4, where the optimal diameter remained practically unchanged at ~6.2 nm.

Abstract
In this study, modified polyurethanes (PUs) with starch and magnetite were synthesized in the form of scaffolds for potential applications in orthopedics. Polyurethanes were synthesized using a one-step method. PU synthesis was carried out using poly(ε-caprolactone) 2000 as soft segments and 4,4
-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (MDI). Various molar ratios of starch and 1,5-pentanediol (PDO) as crosslinker/chain extender were applied, and the effects of incorporating different amounts of magnetite, as well as the role of PDO to starch ratio, were studied. The use of the additive in the form of magnetic particles was to feature the polyurethane materials for use in hyperthermia. The prepared polyurethanes were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry (TG), and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) methods. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analysis and preliminary bioactivity assessment were also performed. The addition of magnetic particles did not cause significant changes in the properties of the obtained materials compared to starch. The tested materials have the potential to be used to fill or replace bone defects in orthopedics, where they can undergo hyperthermia treatment.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes) carrying various biomolecules (e.g., proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids) have rapidly emerged as promising platforms for many biomedical applications. Despite their enormous potential, their heterogeneity in surfaces and sizes, the high complexity of cargo biomolecules, and the inefficient uptake by recipient cells remain critical barriers for their theranostic applications. To address these critical issues, multifunctional nanomaterials, such as magnetic nanomaterials, with their tunable physical, chemical, and biological properties, may play crucial roles in next-generation extracellular vesicles (EV)-based disease diagnosis, drug delivery, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine. As such, one aims to provide cutting-edge knowledge pertaining to magnetic nanomaterials-facilitated isolation, detection, and delivery of extracellular vesicles and their associated biomolecules. By engaging the fields of extracellular vesicles and magnetic nanomaterials, it is envisioned that their properties can be effectively combined for optimal outcomes in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Nile Tilapia fish scale collagen has high biodegradability, excellent biocompatibility, and low antigenicity. We assessed both the encapsulation efficiency of theophylline into Nile Tilapia fish scale-based collagen nanoparticles and their stability as a pulmonary drug delivery system in male Sprague-Dawley rats. The present study has demonstrated the successful encapsulation of theophylline into the synthesised nanoparticles as shown by spectrophotometric analysis, light microscope, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and dynamic light scattering. The antibacterial activity of the nanoparticles improves with increasing their concentrations. Intratracheal treatment of rats using theophylline-encapsulated nanoparticles reduced the levels of creatinine, alanine transaminase, and aspartate transaminase, compared to the control group. Nevertheless, nanoparticles combined with theophylline exhibited no effects on cholesterol and triglycerides levels. Histopathological examination revealed typical uniform and diffuse thickening of the alveolar walls with capillary oedema in treated rats. We concluded that the synthesised collagen nanoparticles appropriately target the lungs of male Sprague-Dawley rats when delivered via a nebuliser, showing good tolerability to lung cells. However, dose ratio of collagen nanoparticles to theophylline needs further evaluation. The nanoprecipitation method may be optimised to involve poorly water-soluble inhaled drugs, and avoid the drawbacks of traditional drug delivery.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have been extensively investigated during the last couple of decades because of their potential applications across various disciplines ranging from spintronics to nanotheranostics. However, pure iron oxide nanoparticles cannot meet the requirement for practical applications. Doping is considered as one of the most prominent and simplest techniques to achieve optimized multifunctional properties in nanomaterials. Doped iron oxides, particularly, rare-earth (RE) doped nanostructures have shown much-improved performance for a wide range of biomedical applications, including magnetic hyperthermia and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), compared to pure iron oxide. Extensive investigations have revealed that bigger-sized RE ions possessing high magnetic moment and strong spin-orbit coupling can serve as promising dopants to significantly regulate the properties of iron oxides for advanced biomedical applications. This review provides a detailed investigation on the role of RE ions as primary dopants for engineering the structural and magnetic properties of Fe3 O4 nanoparticles to carefully introspect and correlate their impact on cancer theranostics with a special focus on magnetic hyperthermia and MRI. In addition, prospects for achieving high-performance magnetic hyperthermia and MRI are thoroughly discussed. Finally, suggestions on future work in these two areas are also proposed.

Abstract
The interactions between biomembranes and particles are key to many applications, but the lack of controllable model systems to study them limits the progress in their research. Here, we describe how Janus polystyrene microparticles, half coated with iron, can be partially engulfed by artificial cells, namely giant vesicles, with the goals to control and investigate their adhesion and degree of encapsulation. The interaction between the Janus particles and these model cell membrane systems is mediated by electrostatic charge, offering a further mode of modulation in addition to the iron patches. The ferromagnetic particle coatings also enable manipulation and transport of the vesicles by magnetic fields.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a novel class of porous hybrid organic-inorganic materials that have attracted increasing attention over the past decade. MOFs can be used in chemical engineering, materials science, and chemistry applications. Recently, these structures have been thoroughly studied as promising platforms for biomedical applications. Due to their unique physical and chemical properties, they are regarded as promising candidates for disease diagnosis and drug delivery. Their well-defined structure, high porosity, tunable frameworks, wide range of pore shapes, ultrahigh surface area, relatively low toxicity, and easy chemical functionalization have made them the focus of extensive research. This review highlights the up-to-date progress of MOFs as potential platforms for disease diagnosis and drug delivery for a wide range of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, neurological disorders, and ocular diseases. A brief description of the synthesis methods of MOFs is first presented. Various examples of MOF-based sensors and DDSs are introduced for the different diseases. Finally, the challenges and perspectives are discussed to provide context for the future development of MOFs as efficient platforms for disease diagnosis and drug delivery systems.

Abstract
The β-xylanase gene (DCE06_04615) with 1041 bp cloned from Thermotoga naphthophila was expressed into E. coli BL21 DE3. The cloned β-xylanase was covalently bound to iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles coated with silica utilizing carbodiimide. The size of the immobilized MNPs (50 nm) and their binding with β-xylanase were characterized by Fourier-transform electron microscopy (FTIR) (a change in shift particularly from C–O to C–N) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) (spherical in shape and 50 nm in diameter). The results showed that enzyme activity (4.5 ± 0.23 U per mL), thermo-stability (90 °C after 4 hours, residual activity of enzyme calculated as 29.89% ± 0.72), pH stability (91% ± 1.91 at pH 7), metal ion stability (57% ± 1.08 increase with Ca2+), reusability (13 times) and storage stability (96 days storage at 4 °C) of the immobilized β-xylanase was effective and superior. The immobilized β-xylanase exhibited maximal enzyme activity at pH 7 and 90 °C. Repeated enzyme assay and saccharification of pretreated rice straw showed that the MNP-enzyme complex exhibited 56% ± 0.76 and 11% ± 0.56 residual activity after 8 times and 13 times repeated usage. The MNP-enzyme complex showed 17.32% and 15.52% saccharification percentage after 1st and 8th time usage respectively. Immobilized β-xylanase exhibited 96% residual activity on 96 days' storage at 4 °C that showed excellent stability. The β-xylanase gene (DCE06_04615) with 1041 bp cloned from Thermotoga naphthophila was expressed into E. coli BL21 DE3.![]()
