Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) remains the epitome of aggressiveness and lethality in the spectrum of brain tumors, primarily due to the blood-brain barrier (BBB) that hinders effective treatment delivery, tumor heterogeneity, and the presence of treatment-resistant stem cells that contribute to tumor recurrence. Nanoparticles (NPs) have been used to overcome these obstacles by attaching targeting ligands to enhance therapeutic efficacy. Among these ligands, peptides stand out due to their ease of synthesis and high selectivity. This article aims to review single and multiligand strategies critically. In addition, it highlights other strategies that integrate the effects of external stimuli, biomimetic approaches, and chemical approaches as nanocatalytic medicine, revealing their significant potential in treating GBM with peptide-functionalized NPs. Alternative routes of parenteral administration, specifically nose-to-brain delivery and local treatment within the resected tumor cavity, are also discussed. Finally, an overview of the significant obstacles and potential strategies to overcome them are discussed to provide a perspective on this promising field of GBM therapy.

Abstract
In the present work, cytidine 5'-monophosphate capped gold nanoclusters (AuNCs@CMP) are reported as a catalyst for redox reactions, which show both oxidase- and excellent peroxidase-like activity. When employing 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) as a substrate in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the maximum velocity (Vmax) was 175 × 10-8 M s-1 in vitro. Besides, the AuNCs@CMP exhibited high catalytic activity for reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation with H2O2. Particularly, they also displayed excellent catalytic activity for ROS generation in tumor cells, being activated and promoted by the tumor microenvironment (TME). Consequently, the AuNCs@CMP show an excellent antitumor effect on HeLa and SW480 cells as assayed by flow cytometry. The antitumor mechanism of AuNCs@CMP was attributed to the high ROS generation based on the specific environments of the TME. Therefore, the present study provides TME-adaptive AuNCs@CMP with excellent mimetic peroxidase activity, producing significant ROS to kill the tumor cells in TME.

The Precise Detection of HER-2 Expression in Breast Cancer Cell via Au25 Probes. NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12060923. [PMID: 35335736 PMCID: PMC8950386 DOI: 10.3390/nano12060923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Revised: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 03/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for nearly one-quarter of all breast cancer cases, but effective targeted therapies for this disease remain elusive because TNBC cells lack the expression of the most common three receptors seen in other subtypes of breast cancers. The medium-term diagnosis of breast cancers is essential for development and prognosis. According to reports, patients with TNBC may be converted to a positive epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER-2) after chemotherapy, and trastuzumab treatment will have a better prognosis. Therefore, it is important to accurately quantify the expression of HER-2 in breast cancer cells. Herein, we design a red fluorescent Au25 probe synthesized with BSA-biotin as the ligand, which is accurately quantified by HER-2 primary antibody-biotin using the avidin system. The quantitative detection of the expression of HER-2 in breast cancers is helpful for the companion diagnostic of breast cancer treatment and provides follow-up treatment.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a type of hazardous bacteria in the field of food safety. A sensitive and effective method is urgently needed to detect it, avoiding enormous harm for the human health. In this study, we synthesized stable Ag+-doped gold nanoclusters (Ag-AuNC) with a fluorescence intensity 4.8 times stronger than that of AuNC. It was further demonstrated that Ag0 existing in the AuNC core and a fraction of Ag+ anchored on the AuNC shell eliminated the surface defects and improved the luminescent properties of AuNC. A combination of I2 and I- was used to quench fluorescence-enhanced Ag-AuNC, which was first applied in ELISA for detecting E. coli O157:H7 to improve the sensitivity. In the presence of E. coli O157:H7, the biotinylated anti-E. coli O157:H7 mAb and streptavidin-alkaline phosphatase would be immobilized and catalyze l-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate sesquimagnesium salt hydrate to produce ascorbic acid. After addition of KIO3, I2/I- were generated. The I2 could trigger oxidative etching of Ag-AuNC and I- could combine with Ag+ to decrease the Ag+ concentration of Ag-AuNC, which resulted in fluorescence quenching of Ag-AuNC. Under optimal conditions, the linear range of I2/I--mediated fluorescence quenching of Ag-AuNC-based immunoassay for detecting E. coli O157:H7 was 3.3 × 103 to 106 cfu/mL, with a detection limit of 9.2 × 102 cfu/mL, 10.7-fold lower than that of the traditional ELISA. The proposed immunoassay exhibits excellent sensitivity, specificity, recovery, and accuracy, which is useful for quantitative detection of E. coli O157:H7 in food safety.

Abstract
Tumor invasion/metastasis is still the major cause of death in cancer patients. Membrane type-1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) is directly related to tumor invasion/metastasis. To accurately and quickly distinguish the risk of invasion/metastasis of primary tumor cells, it is urgent to develop a simple and precise quantitative method to distinguish the expression level of MT1-MMP. In this work, we have constructed red fluorescent Au clusters with peroxidase-like properties that could specifically bind to MT1-MMP on human cervical cancer cells. After MT1-MMP was labelled with Au clusters, we could visually see red fluorescence of MT1-MMP on cervical cancer cells via fluorescence microscopy and catalytic color imaging using an ordinary optical microscope. The constructed Au clusters contained 26 Au atoms; thus, the amount of MT1-MMP on cervical cancer cells could be accurately quantified using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). More importantly, the invasion/metastasis capabilities of the cervical cancer Siha, Caski and Hela cells with different MT1-MMP amounts could be accurately distinguished by fluorescence/catalysis qualitative imaging and ICP-MS quantitative analysis. This method of qualitative/quantitative analysis of tumor-associated proteins on cancer cells has great potential for accurately diagnosing aggressive tumor cells and assessment of their invasion/metastasis risk.

Abstract
Design of micro- or nanocarriers for drug delivery has primarily been focused on properties such as hydrophobicity, biodegradability, size, shape, surface charge, and toxicity, so that they can achieve optimal delivery with respect to drug loading, release kinetics, biodistribution, cellular uptake, and biocompatibility. Incorporation of stimulus-sensitive moieties into the carriers would lead to "smart" delivery systems. A further evolution would be to endow the carrier with a therapeutic function such that it no longer serves as a mere passive entity to release the drug at the target tissue but can be viewed as a therapeutic agent in itself. In this review, we will discuss recent and ongoing efforts over the past decade to design therapeutic drug carriers that confer a biological benefit, including ROS scavenging or generating, pro- or anti-inflammatory, and immuno-evasive properties, to enhance the overall therapeutic efficacy of the delivery systems.

Abstract
Platinum (Pt) drugs are widely used in anti-cancer treatment although many reports advocated that tumor cells could inactivate Pt drugs via glutathione-Pt (GSH-Pt) adducts formation. To date, GSH chelated Pt molecules have not been assessed in cancer treatment because GSH-Pt adducts are not capable of killing cancer cells, which is widely accepted and well followed. In this report, endogenous biothiol is utilized to precisely synthesize a GSH chelated Pt molecule (Pt6 GS4 ). This Pt6 GS4 molecule can be well taken up by aggressive triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. Subsequently, its metabolites could enter nuclei to interact with DNA, finally the DNA-Pt complex triggers TNBC cell apoptosis via the p53 pathway. Impressively, high efficacy for anti-cancer treatment is achieved by Pt6 GS4 both in vitro and in vivo when compared with traditional first-line carboplatin in the same dosage. Compared with carboplatin, Pt6 GS4 keeps tumor bearing mice alive for a longer time and is non-toxic for the liver and kidneys. This work opens a route to explore polynuclear Pt compound with accurate architecture for enhancing therapeutic effects and reducing systemic toxicity.

Abstract
Rationale: Bone is the most frequent site for breast cancer metastasis, which accounts for the leading cause of death in advanced breast cancer patients. Serious skeletal-related events (SREs) caused by bone metastasis have a decisive impact on the life expectancy of breast cancer patients, making breast cancer almost incurable. Metastatic breast cancer cell induced pathological osteoclastogenesis is a key driver of bone metastasis and osteolytic bone lesions. We previously reported that gold clusters can prevent inflammation induced osteoclastogenesis and osteolysis in vivo. In this study, we investigated the effects of a BSA-coated gold cluster on metastatic breast cancer-induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro and tumor-induced osteolysis in vivo, and elucidated its possible mechanism. Methods: Breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 was used to evaluate the regulatory effects of gold clusters on breast cancer metastasis and tumor induced osteoclastogenesis in vitro. Cell counting kit-8, transwell, wound-healing and colony formation assays were performed to evaluate the effect of gold clusters on proliferation and metastasis of MDA-MB-231 cells. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining and filamentous-actin rings analysis were used to detect the regulatory effects of gold clusters on MDA-MB-231 cell-conditioned medium (MDA-MB-231 CM) triggered and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis in mouse bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells (BMMs). A mouse model of breast cancer bone metastasis was used to evaluate the in vivo activity of the gold cluster on the tumor induced osteolysis. Results: The gold clusters suppressed the migration, invasion and colony formation of MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. The gold clusters strongly inhibited both MDA-MB-231 CM triggered and RANKL-induced osteoclast formation from BMMs in vitro. Cell studies indicated that the gold clusters suppressed the expression of osteolysis-related factors in MDA-MB-231 cells and inhibited the subsequent activation of NF-κB pathway in BMMs. Treatment with the clusters at a dose of 10 mg Au/kg.bw significantly reduces the breast cancer cell induced osteolysis in vivo. Conclusion: Therefore, the gold clusters may offer new therapeutic agents for preventing breast cancer bone metastasis and secondary osteolysis to improve patient outcomes.
