Abstract
In recent years, gold nanomaterials have become a hot topic in photothermal tumor therapy due to their unique surface plasmon resonance characteristics. The effectiveness of photothermal therapy is highly dependent on the shape and size of gold nanoparticles. In this work, we investigate the photothermal therapeutic effects of four different sizes of gold nanorods (GNRs). The results show that the uptake of short GNRs with aspect ratios 3.3-3.5 by cells is higher than that of GNRs with aspect ratios 4-5.5. Using a laser with single pulse energy as low as 28 pJ laser for 20 s can induce the death of liver cancer cells co-cultured with short GNRs. Long GNRs required twice the energy to achieve the same therapeutic effect. The dual-temperature model is used to simulate the photothermal response of intracellular clusters irradiated by a laser. It is found that small GNRs are easier to compact because of their morphological characteristics, and the electromagnetic coupling between GNRs is better, which increases the internal field enhancement, resulting in higher local temperature. Compared with a single GNR, GNR clusters are less dependent on polarization and wavelength, which is more conducive to the flexible selection of excitation laser sources.

Abstract
Bi-directional communication between cumulus cells and the surrounded oocytes is important for the development and functions of both compartments. However, the metabolic framework in cumulus cells has not been systematically described. In the present study, cumulus cells from cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) at three key time points were isolated (arrested GV stage, post-hCG 0h; meiotic resumption GVBD stage, post-hCG 3h; and metaphase II stage, post-hCG 12h), and the temporal metabolomic and proteomic profiling were performed. Integrated multi-omics analysis reveals the global metabolic patterns in cumulus cells during mouse oocyte maturation. In particular, we found the active hyaluronic acid metabolism, steroid hormone synthesis, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production in cumulus cells. Meanwhile, accompanying the oocyte maturation, a progressive increase in nucleotide and amino acid metabolism was detected in the surrounding cumulus cells. In sum, the data serve as a valuable resource for probing metabolism during terminal differentiation of ovarian granulosa cells, and provide the potential biomarkers for improving and predicting oocyte quality.

Abstract
Fungi are very promising biological objects for the green synthesis of nanoparticles. Biogenic synthesis of nanoparticles using different mycological cultures and substances obtained from them is a promising, easy and environmentally friendly method. By varying the synthesis conditions, the same culture can be used to produce nanoparticles with different sizes, shapes, stability in colloids and, therefore, different biological activity. Fungi are capable of producing a wide range of biologically active compounds and have a powerful enzymatic system that allows them to form nanoparticles of various chemical elements. This review attempts to summarize and provide a comparative analysis of the currently accumulated data, including, among others, our research group's works, on the variety of the characteristics of the nanoparticles produced by various fungal species, their mycelium, fruiting bodies, extracts and purified fungal metabolites.
