Abstract
INTRODUCTION Radiation therapy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is constrained by radiotoxicity to normal tissue. We demonstrate 100 nm theranostic nanoparticles for image-guided radiation therapy planning and enhancement in rat head and neck squamous cell carcinoma models. METHODS PEG conjugated theranostic nanoparticles comprising of Au nanorods coated with Gadolinium oxide layers were tested for radiation therapy enhancement in 2D cultures of OSC-19-GFP-luc cells, and orthotopic tongue xenografts in male immunocompromised Salt sensitive or SS rats via both intratumoral and intravenous delivery. The radiation therapy enhancement mechanism was investigated. RESULTS Theranostic nanoparticles demonstrated both X-ray/magnetic resonance contrast in a dose-dependent manner. Magnetic resonance images depicted optimal tumor-to-background uptake at 4 h post injection. Theranostic nanoparticle + Radiation treated rats experienced reduced tumor growth compared to controls, and reduction in lung metastasis. CONCLUSIONS Theranostic nanoparticles enable preprocedure radiotherapy planning, as well as enhance radiation treatment efficacy for head and neck tumors.

Abstract
Developing endogenous photo-activated theranostic platforms to overcome the limitation of low tissue-penetration from external light sources is highly significant for cancer diagnosis and treatment. We report a H2 O2 -initiated chemiluminescence (CL)-triggered nanoparticle aggregation strategy to activate theranostic functions of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) for effective tumor imaging and therapy. Two types of AuNPs (tAuNP & mAuNP) were designed and fabricated by conjugating 2,5-diphenyltetrazole and methacrylic acid onto the surface of AuNPs, respectively. Luminol was adsorbed onto the mAuNPs to afford self-illuminating mAuNP/Lu NPs that could produce strong CL by reaction with H2 O2 in the tumor microenvironment, which triggers significant aggregation of AuNPs resulting in enhanced accumulation and retention of AuNPs for activated photoacoustic imaging and photothermal therapy of tumors. We thus believe that this approach may offer a promising tool for effective tumor treatment.

Abstract
Malignant tumors have become one of the major causes of human death, but there remains a lack of effective methods for tiny tumor diagnosis, metastasis warning, clinical efficacy prediction, and effective treatment. In this context, localizing tiny tumors via imaging and non-invasively extracting molecular information related to tumor proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and drug resistance from the tumor microenvironment have become the most fundamental tasks faced by cancer researchers. Tumor-associated microenvironmental physiological parameters, such as hypoxia, acidic extracellular pH, protease, reducing conditions, and so forth, have much to do with prognostic indicators for cancer progression, and impact therapeutic administrations. By combining with various novel nanoparticle-based activatable probes, molecular imaging technologies can provide a feasible approach to visualize tumor-associated microenvironment parameters noninvasively and realize accurate treatment of tumors. This review focuses on the recent achievements in the design of “smart” nanomedicine responding to the tumor microenvironment-related features and highlights state-of- the-art technology in tumor imaging diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract
Radiotherapy (RT) has become one of the most widely used treatments for malignant tumors in clinics. Developing a novel radiosensitizer for the integration of precise diagnosis and effective radiotherapy against hypoxic tumors is desirable but remains a great challenge. Herein, protein sulfenic acid reactive gold nanoparticles as effective radiosensitizers were for the first time reported for enhanced X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging and radiotherapy of tumors in vivo. The gold nanoparticles were decorated with biocompatible poly(ethylene glycol), folic acid (FA), and sulfenic acid reactive groups 1,3-cyclohexanedione (CHD). Such a nanostructure enables on-site immobilization within tumors under oxidative stress through the specific reaction between CHD and endogenous protein sulfenic acids resulting in enhanced accumulation and retention of gold nanoparticles within tumors, which remarkably improves the sensitivity of CT imaging and the radiotherapeutic efficacy of tumors in living mice. This study thus is the first to demonstrate that protein sulfenic acid reactive gold nanoparticles with a tumor anchoring function may serve as effective radiosensitizers for clinical X-ray theranostic application in the future.
