Abstract
Breast cancer is a malignant tumor with a high mortality rate among women. Therefore, it is necessary to develop novel therapies to effectively treat this disease. In this study, iron selenide nanorods (FeSe2 NRs) were designed for use in magnetic hyperthermic, photothermal, and chemodynamic therapy (MHT/PTT/CDT) for breast cancer. To illustrate their efficacy, FeSe2 NRs were modified with the chemotherapeutic agent methotrexate (MTX). MTX-modified FeSe2 (FeSe2-MTX) exhibited excellent controlled drug release properties. Fe2+ released from FeSe2 NRs induced the release of •OH from H2O2 via a Fenton/Fenton-like reaction, enhancing the efficacy of CDT. Under alternating magnetic field (AMF) stimulation and 808 nm laser irradiation, FeSe2-MTX exerted potent hyperthermic and photothermal effects by suppressing tumor growth in a breast cancer nude mouse model. In addition, FeSe2 NRs can be used for magnetic resonance imaging in vivo by incorporating their superparamagnetic characteristics into a single nanomaterial. Overall, we presented a novel technique for the precise delivery of functional nanosystems to tumors that can enhance the efficacy of breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
Hybrid polymer vesicles contain functional nanoparticles (NPs) in their walls, interfaces, coronae, or cavities. NPs render the hybrid vesicles with specific physical properties, while polymers endow them with structural stability and may significantly reduce the high toxicity of NPs. Therefore, hybrid vesicles integrate fascinating multifunctions from both NPs and polymeric vesicles, which have gained tremendous attention because of their diverse promising applications. Various types of delicate hybrid polymeric vesicles with size control and tunable localization of NPs in different parts of vesicles have been constructed via in situ and ex situ strategies, respectively. Their potential applications have been widely explored, as well. This review presents the progress of block copolymer (BCP) vesicle systems containing different types of NPs including metal NPs, magnetic NPs, and semiconducting quantum dots (QDs), etc. The strategies for controlling the location of NPs within hybrid vesicles are discussed. Typical potential applications of the elegant hybrid vesicles are also highlighted.

Pluronic F127 and P104 Polymeric Micelles as Efficient Nanocarriers for Loading and Release of Single and Dual Antineoplastic Drugs. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15102249.

Abstract
The potential application of biodegradable and biocompatible polymeric micelles formed by Pluronic F127 and P104 as nanocarriers of the antineoplastic drugs docetaxel (DOCE) and doxorubicin (DOXO) is presented in this work. The release profile was carried out under sink conditions at 37 °C and analyzed using the Higuchi, Korsmeyer-Peppas, and Peppas-Sahlin diffusion models. The cell viability of HeLa cells was evaluated using the proliferation cell counting kit CCK-8 assay. The formed polymeric micelles solubilized significant amounts of DOCE and DOXO, and released them in a sustained manner for 48 h, with a release profile composed of an initial rapid release within the first 12 h followed by a much slower phase the end of the experiments. In addition, the release was faster under acidic conditions. The model that best fit the experimental data was the Korsmeyer-Peppas one and denoted a drug release dominated by Fickian diffusion. When HeLa cells were exposed for 48 h to DOXO and DOCE drugs loaded inside P104 and F127 micelles, they showed lower IC50 values than those reported by other researchers using polymeric nanoparticles, dendrimers or liposomes as alternative carriers, indicating that a lower drug concentration is needed to decrease cell viability by 50%.

Biocompatibility of Dextran-Coated 30 nm and 80 nm Sized SPIONs towards Monocytes, Dendritic Cells and Lymphocytes. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 13:14. [PMID: 36615924 PMCID: PMC9823599 DOI: 10.3390/nano13010014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Dextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONDex) of various sizes can be used as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of different tissues, e.g., liver or atherosclerotic plaques, after intravenous injection. In previous studies, the blood compatibility and the absence of immunogenicity of SPIONDex was demonstrated. The investigation of the interference of SPIONDex with stimulated immune cell activation is the aim of this study. For this purpose, sterile and endotoxin-free SPIONDex with different hydrodynamic sizes (30 and 80 nm) were investigated for their effect on monocytes, dendritic cells (DC) and lymphocytes in concentrations up to 200 µg/mL, which would be administered for use as an imaging agent. The cells were analyzed using flow cytometry and brightfield microscopy. We found that SPIONDex were hardly taken up by THP-1 monocytes and did not reduce cell viability. In the presence of SPIONDex, the phagocytosis of zymosan and E. coli by THP-1 was dose-dependently reduced. SPIONDex neither induced the maturation of DCs nor interfered with their stimulated maturation. The particles did not induce lymphocyte proliferation or interfere with lymphocyte proliferation after stimulation. Since SPIONDex rapidly distribute via the blood circulation in vivo, high concentrations were only reached locally at the injection site immediately after application and only for a very limited time. Thus, SPIONDex can be considered immune compatible in doses required for use as an MRI contrast agent.

Abstract
Targeted drug therapy against cancer has been introduced as a smart strategy to combat the unwanted side effects due to systemic administration of chemotherapeutics. A human serum albumin (HSA)-based nanocarrier was fabricated with the aim to target reductive media and acidic pH of the tumor tissues. α-Lipoic acid (LA) was applied to increase the number of disulfide bonds in the nanocarrier to target higher glutathione concentrations present in tumor tissues and polyethylene glycol was used to target the acidic pH of tumors. UV illumination, ethanol desolvation, oxygen bubbling, and a mixture of redox buffers were employed to prepare doxorubicin-loaded HSA-LA nanoparticles. The nanocarrier was supposed to release the loaded doxorubicin in reductive and acidic pH media. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and energy dispersive X-ray analysis indicated successful attachment of LA to HSA. The prepared nanoplatform presented improved doxorubicin loading efficiency and content and successfully released the loaded doxorubicin in the expected conditions. Protein corona study indicated that positively charged plasma proteins with molecular weights of nearly 80 kDa are absorbed to the surface of the nanoparticles. Furthermore, it showed desirable UV and storage stability, which implied its robustness and improved shelf life if applied in nanomedicine.

Abstract
Although nanomedicine has been highly investigated for cancer treatment over the past decades, only a few nanomedicines are currently approved and in the market; making this field poorly represented in clinical applications. Key research gaps that require optimization to successfully translate the use of nanomedicines have been identified, but not addressed; among these, the lack of control of the release pattern of therapeutics is the most important. To solve these issues with currently used nanomedicines (e.g., burst release, systemic release), different strategies for the design and manufacturing of nanomedicines allowing for better control over the therapeutic release, are currently being investigated. The inclusion of stimuli-responsive properties and prolonged drug release have been identified as effective approaches to include in nanomedicine, and are discussed in this paper. Recently, smart sustained release nanoparticles have been successfully designed to safely and efficiently deliver therapeutics with different kinetic profiles, making them promising for many drug delivery applications and in specific for cancer treatment. In this review, the state-of-the-art of smart sustained release nanoparticles is discussed, focusing on the design strategies and performances of polymeric nanotechnologies. A complete list of nanomedicines currently tested in clinical trials and approved nanomedicines for cancer treatment is presented, critically discussing advantages and limitations with respect to the newly developed nanotechnologies and manufacturing methods. By the presented discussion and the highlight of nanomedicine design criteria and current limitations, this review paper could be of high interest to identify key features for the design of release-controlled nanomedicine for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing and 3D bioprinting are promising technologies for a broad range of healthcare applications from frontier regenerative medicine and tissue engineering therapies to pharmaceutical advancements yet must overcome the challenges of biocompatibility and resolution. Through comparison of traditional biofabrication methods with 3D (bio)printing, this review highlights the promise of 3D printing for the production of on-demand, personalized, and complex products that enhance the accessibility, effectiveness, and safety of drug therapies and delivery systems. In addition, this review describes the capacity of 3D bioprinting to fabricate patient-specific tissues and living cell systems (e.g., vascular networks, organs, muscles, and skeletal systems) as well as its applications in the delivery of cells and genes, microfluidics, and organ-on-chip constructs. This review summarizes how tailoring selected parameters (i.e., accurately selecting the appropriate printing method, materials, and printing parameters based on the desired application and behavior) can better facilitate the development of optimized 3D-printed products and how dynamic 4D-printed strategies (printing materials designed to change with time or stimulus) may be deployed to overcome many of the inherent limitations of conventional 3D-printed technologies. Comprehensive insights into a critical perspective of the future of 4D bioprinting, crucial requirements for 4D printing including the programmability of a material, multimaterial printing methods, and precise designs for meticulous transformations or even clinical applications are also given.

Therefore, a rapid, sensitive, and convenient method for monitoring food contaminants is eagerly needed. The complex matrix interferences of food samples and poor performance of existing sensing probes bring significant challenges to improving detection performances. Nanocomposites with multifunctional features provide a solution to these problems. The combination of the superior characteristics of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and quantum dots (QDs) to fabricate magnetic fluorescent quantum dots (MNPs@QDs) nanocomposites are regarded as an ideal multifunctional probe for food contaminants analysis. The high-efficiency pretreatment and rapid fluorescence detection are concurrently integrated into one sensing platform using MNPs@QDs nanocomposites. In this review, the contemporary synthetic strategies to fabricate MNPs@QDs, including hetero-crystalline growth, template embedding, layer-by-layer assembly, microemulsion technique, and one-pot method, are described in detail, and their advantages and limitations are discussed. The recent advances of MNPs@QDs nanocomposites in detecting metal ions, foodborne pathogens, toxins, pesticides, antibiotics, and illegal additives are comprehensively introduced from the perspectives of modes and detection performances. The review ends with current challenges and opportunities in practical applications and prospects in food contaminants analysis, aiming to promote the enthusiasm for multifunctional sensing platform research.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle has an innate regenerative capacity to restore their structure and function following acute damages and injuries. However, in congenital muscular dystrophies, large volumetric muscle loss, cachexia, or aging, the declined regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle results in muscle wasting and functional impairment. Recent studies indicate that muscle mass and function are closely correlated with morbidity and mortality due to the large volume and location of skeletal muscle. However, the options for treating neuromuscular disorders are limited. Biomedical engineering strategies such as nanotechnologies have been implemented to address this issue.In this review, we focus on recent studies leveraging nano-sized materials for regeneration of skeletal muscle. We look at skeletal muscle pathologies and describe various proof-of-concept and pre-clinical studies that have used nanomaterials, with a focus on how nano-sized materials can be used for skeletal muscle regeneration depending on material dimensionality.Depending on the dimensionality of nano-sized materials, their application have been changed because of their different physical and biochemical properties.Nanomaterials have been spotlighted as a great candidate for addressing the unmet needs of regenerative medicine. Nanomaterials could be applied to several types of tissues and diseases along with the unique characteristics of nanomaterials. However, when confined to muscle tissue, the targets of nanomaterial applications are limited and can be extended in future research.

Abstract
Heusler compound nanoparticles with good structural ordering need to be investigated as a potential material class for magneto-thermal applications requiring heat generation in presence of an oscillating magnetic field. Here, we report an important finding of a structural parameter related to the product of the strain and the coherent crystallite size, that can be used to efficiently control the structural ordering and the magnetic property of the Heulser compound nanoparticles. The optimization of this product parameter is found to enhance both the structural ordering and magnetic transition temperature in Co2FeSn Heusler nanoparticles. Furthermore, using magnetic hyperthermia measurements we demonstrate the possibility of heat generation using Heusler compound nanoparticles comparable to that of conventional magnetic nanoparticles. This shall lead to the development of Heulser compounds for similar applications.

Abstract
A colloidal nanocrystal cluster (CNC) is a hierarchical nanostructure formed by clustering several nanocrystals into one nano-ensemble, which may exhibit unique optical or catalytic properties different from individual nanocrystals owing to the mutual interactions among neighboring component nanocrystals. However, there is still no universal synthetic route that could be applicable to diverse material compositions with precisely controlled hierarchical structures (i.e., nanocrystal number density, component nanocrystal size, and overall diameter of the CNC) up to now. Herein, a general and novel synthetic strategy was reported for crafting a wide range of inorganic CNCs (i.e., noble metal, semiconductor, and metal oxide) via utilizing amphiphilic star-like poly(4-vinylpyridine)-block-polystyrene diblock copolymers as nanoreactors prepared by sequential atom transfer radical polymerization. The hierarchical structure of rationally designed CNCs could be readily tailored by varying the P4VP molecular weight of star-like nanoreactors and the parameter optimization during the CNC preparation process, which was inaccessible by conventional synthetic methods.

Abstract
For the past few years, organic-inorganic hybrid nanocarriers have been widely explored for effective drug delivery and preferable disease treatments. In this article, hydrothermal method was utilized to prepare fine dispersed layered double hydroxide (Mg-Al LDH) suspension. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) was grafted on the surface of LDH lamella in order to improve the dispersibility of LDH. Besides, the anti-cancer drug gemcitabine was grafted on the surface of LDH lamellas through chemical grafting. Hence a novel new type of organic-inorganic hybrid drug delivery system LDH-mPEG-Gemcitabine was obtained. In addition, the siRNA was intercalated into the LDH interlamination by ion exchange method to realize drug and gene co-delivery. The loading capacity of LDH and LDH-mPEG-Gemcitabine was evaluated by agarose gel electrophoresis. The characterization by laser particle size analyzer, TEM, FT-IR, XRD, in vitro cell viability and in vitro drug release demonstrated that LDH-mPEG-Gemcitabine possessed fine dispersibility, uniform morphology and particle size, fine biocompatibility, ideal drug loading and releasing capacity and held great potential to be used as a desired co-delivery system for drug and gene.

Abstract
This paper demonstrates fabrication of silica-shell-coated magnetic nanoparticle clusters (SMNCs) and subsequent surface engineering of SMNCs to produce surface-modified SMNCs that have zwitterionic and primary amine ligands (SMNC-ZW/Am). SMNC-ZW/Am was passivated by zwitterionic ligands for improved colloidal stability and reduced nonspecific adsorption and by primary amine ligands for facilitated conjugation with biomolecules. Hydrodynamic (HD) size and zeta potential of SMNC-ZW/Am could be flexibly tuned by controlling the relative amounts of zwitterionic and primary amine ligands. SMNC-ZW/Am had higher colloidal stability in high salt concentration and broad pH range than did bare SMNC. Nonspecific adsorption with biomolecules onto SMNC-ZW/Am surface was significantly suppressed by the zwitterionic ligands. The facile bioconjugation capability of SWNC-ZW/Am enabled conjugation of biotin and antibody to the SWNC-ZW/Am surface. Biomolecule-conjugated SMNC-ZW/Am showed specific binding affinity to streptavidin and Salmonella bacteria, with reduced nonspecific adsorption; therefore, SWMC-ZW/Am has potential use as an antifouling nanosubstrate for separation and bioanalysis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nanocarrier-based delivery systems offer multiple benefits to overcome limitations of the traditional drug dosage forms, such as protection of the drug, enhanced bioavailability, targeted delivery to disease site, etc. Nanocarriers have exhibited tremendous successes in targeted delivery of therapeutics to the desired tissues and cells with improved bioavailability, high drug loading capacity, enhanced intracellular delivery, and better therapeutic effect. A specific design of stimuli-responsive nanocarriers allows for changing their structural and physicochemical properties in response to exogenous and endogenous stimuli. These nanocarriers show a promise in site specific controlled release of therapeutics under certain physiological conditions or external stimuli. AREAS COVERED This review highlights recent progresses on the multifunctional and stimuli-sensitive nanocarriers for targeted therapeutic drug delivery applications. EXPERT OPINION The progress from single functional to multifunctional nanocarriers has shown tremendous potential for targeted delivery of therapeutics. On our opinion, the future of targeted delivery of drugs, nucleic acids, and other substances belongs to the site-targeted multifunctional and stimuli-based nanoparticles with controlled release. Targeting of nanocarriers to the disease site enhance the efficacy of the treatment by delivering more therapeutics specifically to the affected cells and substantially limiting adverse side effects upon healthy organs, tissues, and cells.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major cause of cancer death with a high probability of treatment failure. Doxorubicin (DOXO) is an efficient antitumor drug; however, most CRC cells show resistance to its effects. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are potential cancer management tools that can serve as diagnostic agents and also can optimize and personalize treatments. This work aims to evaluate the aptitude of magnetic nanotheranostics composed of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles coated with folic acid intended to the sustained release of DOXO. The administration of DOXO by means of these MNPs resulted in the enhancement of cell death respect to the free drug administration. Chromatin compaction and cytoplasmic protrusions were observed. Mitochondrial transmembrane potential disruption and increased PARP protein cleavage confirmed apoptosis. The nanosystem was also tested as a vectoring tool by exposing it to the stimuli of a static magnetic field in vitro. CRC-related magnetic nanotechnology still remains in pre-clinical trials. In this context, this contribution expands the knowledge of the behavior of MNPs in contact with in vitro models and proposes the nanodevices studied here as potential theranostic agents for the monitoring of the progress of CRC and the evolution of its treatment.

Abstract
A hybrid and straightforward nanosystem that can be used simultaneously for cancer-targeted fluorescence imaging and targeted drug delivery in vitro was reported in this study. A chitosan (CS) polymer coated with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and implanted with Fe3O4 nanoparticles was fabricated. The fundamental physicochemical properties were confirmed via FT-IR, XRD, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, XPS, and VSM analysis. The in vivo toxicity study in zebrafish showed that the nanocomposite was not toxic. The in vitro drug loading amount was 0.448 mg/mL-1 for doxorubicin, an anticancer therapeutic, in the rGO/Fe3O4/CS nanocomposite. Furthermore, the pH-regulated release was observed using folic acid. Cellular uptake and multimodal imaging revealed the benefit of the folic acid-conjugated nanocomposite as a drug carrier, which remarkably improves the doxorubicin accumulation inside the cancer cells over-express folate receptors. The rGO/Fe3O4/CS nanocomposite showed enhanced antibiofilm and antioxidant properties compared to other materials. This study's outcomes support the use of the nanocomposite in targeted chemotherapy and the potential applications in the polymer, cosmetic, biomedical, and food industries.

Abstract
A facile synthetic method was developed to prepare sub-5 nm organo-silica (oSiO2) nanoparticles through the self-condensation of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP)-initiator-containing silica precursors. The obtained oSiO2 nanoparticles were characterized by a combination of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). The accessibility of the surface-Br initiating sites was evaluated by the polymerization of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) ligands from the surface of the oSiO2 nanoparticles using surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP). The ultrasmall size, tunable composition, and ease of surface modification may render these organo-silica nanoparticle systems with built-in SI-ATRP capability an interesting alternative to conventional silica nanoparticles for functional material design.

Abstract
Understanding and modulating proton-mediated biochemical processes in living organisms have been impeded by the lack of tools to control local pH. Here, we design nanotransducers capable of converting noninvasive alternating magnetic fields (AMFs) into protons in physiological environments by combining magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with polymeric scaffolds. When exposed to AMFs, the heat dissipated by MNPs triggered a hydrolytic degradation of surrounding polyanhydride or polyester, releasing protons into the extracellular space. pH changes induced by these nanotransducers can be tuned by changing the polymer chemistry or AMF stimulation parameters. Remote magnetic control of local protons was shown to trigger acid-sensing ion channels and to evoke intracellular calcium influx in neurons. By offering a wireless modulation of local pH, our approach can accelerate the mechanistic investigation of the role of protons in biochemical signaling in the nervous system.

Abstract
Magnetic Fe3O4 nanostructures for electrochemical water splitting and supercapacitor applications were synthesized by low temperature simple wet-chemical route. The crystal structure and morphology of as-acquired nanostructures were examined by powder X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Magnetic measurements indicate that the as-synthesized Fe3O4 nanostructures are ferromagnetic at room temperature. The synthesized nanostructures have a high-specific surface area of 268 m2/g, which affects the electrocatalytic activity of the electrode materials. The purity of the as-synthesized nanostructures was affirmed by Raman and X-ray Photoelectron studies. The electrochemical activity of the magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MIONPs) for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and supercapacitors were investigated in alkaline medium (0.5 M KOH) versus Ag/AgCl at room temperature. The electrocatalysts show low onset potential (~0.18 V) and Tafel slope (~440 mV/dec) for HER. Additionally, the specific capacitance of MIONPs was investigated, which is to be ~135 ± 5 F/g at 5 mV/s in 1 M KOH.

Abstract
Large doses of anticancer drugs entering cancer cell nuclei are found to be effective at killing cancer cells and increasing chemotherapeutic effectiveness. Here we report red-emissive carbon quantum dots, which can enter into the nuclei of not only cancer cells but also cancer stem cells. After doxorubicin was loaded at the concentration of 30 μg/mL on the surfaces of carbon quantum dots, the average cell viability of HeLa cells was decreased to only 21%, while it was decreased to 50% for free doxorubicin. The doxorubicin-loaded carbon quantum dots also exhibited a good therapeutic effect by eliminating cancer stem cells. This work provides a potential strategy for developing carbon quantum-dot-based anticancer drug carriers for effective eradication of cancers.

Abstract
This review contributes towards a systematic understanding of the mechanism of shape-dependent effects on nanoparticles (NPs) for elaborating and predicting their properties and applications based on the past two decades of research. Recently, the significance of shape-dependent physical chemistry and biomedicine has drawn ever increasing attention. While there has been a great deal of effort to utilize NPs with different morphologies in these fields, so far research studies are largely localized in particular materials, synthetic methods, or biomedical applications, and have ignored the interactional and interdependent relationships of these areas. This review is a comprehensive description of the NP shapes from theory, synthesis, property to application. We figure out the roles that shape plays in the properties of different kinds of nanomaterials together with physicochemical and biomedical applications. Through systematic elaboration of these shape-dependent impacts, better utilization of nanomaterials with diverse morphologies would be realized and definite strategies would be expected for breakthroughs in these fields. In addition, we have proposed some critical challenges and open problems that need to be addressed in nanotechnology.

Abstract
The development of high-performance contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has recently received considerable attention, as they hold great promise and potential as a powerful tool for cancer diagnosis. Despite substantial achievements, it remains challenging to develop nanostructure-based biocompatible platforms that can generate on-demand MRI signals with high signal-to-noise ratios and good tumor specificity. Here, the design and synthesis of a new class of nanoparticle-based contrast agents comprising self-assembled NaGdF4 and CaCO3 nanoconjugates is reported. In this design, the spatial confinement of the T1 source (Gd3+ ions) leads to an "OFF" MRI signal due to insufficient interaction between the protons and the crystal lattices. However, when immersed in the mildly acidic tumor microenvironment, the embedded CaCO3 nanoparticles generate CO2 bubbles and subsequently disconnect the nanoconjugate, thus resulting in an "ON" MRI signal. The in vivo performance of these nanoconjugates shows more than 60-fold contrast enhancement in tumor visualization relative to the commercially used contrast agent Magnevist. This work presents a significant advance in the construction of smart MRI nanoprobes ideally suited for deep-tissue imaging and target-specific cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Neutrophils are implicated in numerous inflammatory diseases, and especially in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The unchecked migration of neutrophils into cerebral ischemic regions, and their subsequent release of reactive oxygen species, are considered the primary causes of reperfusion injury following AIS. Reducing the infiltration of inflammatory neutrophils may therefore be a useful therapy for AIS. Here, inspired by the specific cell-cell recognition that occurs between platelets and inflammatory neutrophils, we describe platelet-mimetic nanoparticles (PTNPs) that can be used to directly recognize, intervene, and monitor inflammatory neutrophils in the AIS treatment and therapeutic evaluation. We demonstrate that PTNPs, coloaded with piceatannol, a selective spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO), a T2 contrast agent, can successfully recognize adherent neutrophils via platelet membrane coating. The loaded piceatannol could then be delivered to adherent neutrophils and detach them into circulation, thus decreasing neutrophil infiltration and reducing infarct size. Moreover, when coupled with magnetic resonance imaging, internalized SPIO could be used to monitor the inflammatory neutrophils, associated with therapeutic effects, in real time. This approach is an innovative method for both the treatment and therapeutic evaluation of AIS, and provides new insights into how to treat and monitor neutrophil-associated diseases.

Abstract
The advantages of fluorescence bioimaging in the second near-infrared (NIR II, 1000-1700 nm) window are well known; however, current NIR II fluorescent probes for in vivo tumor imaging still have many shortcomings, such as low fluorescence efficiency, unstable performance under in vivo environments, and inefficient enrichment at tumor sites. In this study, Ag2 Te quantum dots (QDs) that emit light at a wavelength of 1300 nm are assembled with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) and further encapsulated within cancer cell membranes to overcome the shortcomings mentioned above. The as-prepared ≈100 nm biomimetic nanobioprobes exhibit ultrabright (≈60 times greater than that of free Ag2 Te QDs) and highly stable (≈97% maintenance after laser radiation for 1 h) fluorescence in the NIR II window. By combining the active homotypic tumor targeting capability derived from the source cell membrane with the passive enhanced permeation and retention effect, improved accumulation at tumor sites ((31 ± 2)% injection dose per gram of tumor) and a high tumor-to-normal tissue ratio (13.3 ± 0.7) are achieved. In summary, a new biomimetic NIR II fluorescent nanobioprobe with ultrabright and stable fluorescence, homotypic targeting and good biocompatibility for enhanced in vivo tumor imaging is developed in this study.

Abstract
Herein, we synthesized bifunctional magnetic fluorescent beads (MFBs) with a distinct core/shell structure by encapsulating octadecylamine-coated CdSe/ZnS QDs (OC-QDs) and oleic acid-modified iron oxide nanoparticles (OA-IONPs) into two polymer matrixes with different hydrophobic properties. The OC-QDs and OA-IONPs were mainly distributed in the outer layer of MFBs. The resultant MFBs displayed ca. 226-fold stronger fluorescence emission relative to the corresponding OC-QDs and retained ca. 45.4% of the saturation magnetization of the OA-IONPs. The MFBs were used to purify and enrich aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) from dark soy sauce and then utilized as a fluorescent reporter of immunochromatographic assay (ICA) for the sensitive detection of AFB1. Under the optimal detection conditions, the MFB-based ICA (MFB-ICA) displayed a dynamic linear detection of AFB1 in sauce extract over the range of 5-150 pg/mL with a half maximal inhibitory concentration of 27 ± 3 pg/mL ( n = 3). The detection limits for AFB1 in sauce extract and real dark soy sauce were 3 and 51 pg/mL, respectively, which are considerably better than those of the previously reported fluorescent bead-based ICA methods. The analytical performance of the proposed MFB-ICA in terms of selectivity and accuracy was investigated by analyzing AFB1-spiked dark soy sauce samples. The reliability of the proposed method was further confirmed by ultraperformance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. With the combined advantages of QDs and IONPs, the resultant MFBs offer great potential as reporters of ICA for the sensitive detection of trace pollutants in complex matrix samples.

Abstract
Developing multifunctional therapeutic and diagnostic (theranostic) nanoplatforms is critical for addressing challenging issues associated with cancers. Here, self-assembled supernanoparticles consisting of superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles and photoluminescent PbS/CdS quantum dots whose emission lies within the second biological window (II-BW) are developed. The proposed self-assembled Fe3O4 and PbS/CdS (II-BW) supernanoparticles [SASNs (II-BW)] exhibit outstanding photoluminescence detectable through a tissue as thick as 14 mm, by overcoming severe light extinction and concomitant autofluorescence in II-BW, and significantly enhanced T2 relaxivity (282 mM-1 s-1, ca. 4 times higher than free Fe3O4 nanoparticles) due to largely enhanced magnetic field inhomogeneity. On the other hand, SASNs (II-BW) possess the dual capacity to act as both magnetothermal and photothermal agents, overcoming the main drawbacks of each type of heating separately. When SASNs (II-BW) are exposed to the dual-mode (magnetothermal and photothermal) heating, the thermal energy transfer efficiency is amplified 7-fold compared with magnetic heating alone. These results, in hand with the excellent photo- and colloidal stability, and negligible cytotoxicity, demonstrate the potential use of SASNs (II-BW) for deep-tissue bimodal (magnetic resonance and photoluminescence) in vivo imaging, while simultaneously providing the possibility of SASNs (II-BW)-mediated amplified dual-mode heating treatment for cancer therapy.

Abstract
A multifunctional biodegradable brush polymer-drug conjugate (BPDC) is developed for the co-delivery of hydrophobic paclitaxel (PTX) and hydrophilic gemcitabine (GEM) chemotherapeutics, as well as a tumor imaging agent. A novel ternary copolymer of conventional, acetylenyl-functionalized and allyl-functionalized lactides is prepared to serve as the backbone precursor of BPDC. Acetylenyl groups of the copolymer are then reacted with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) side chains and cyanine5.5, a fluorescent probe, via azide-alkyne click reactions. Subsequently, the allyl groups of the yielded PEG-grafted brush polymer are used to covalently link PTX and GEM onto the backbone via thiol-ene click reactions. The resulting BPDC exhibits an average hydrodynamic diameter of 111 nm. Sustained and simultaneous release of PTX and GEM from the BPDC is observed in phosphate buffered saline, with the release of PTX showing sensitivity in mild acidic conditions. In vitro studies using MIA PaCa-2 human pancreatic cancer cells illustrate the cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of the BPDC. In vivo, the BPDC possesses long blood circulation, tumor accumulation, and enables optical tumor imaging. Further development and testing is warranted for multifunctional conjugated brush polymer systems that integrate combination chemotherapies and imaging.

Abstract
A selective colon cancer cell therapy was effectively achieved with catalase-mediated intra-cellular heterogeneous Fenton reactions triggered by cellular uptake of SnFe2O4 nanocrystals. The treatment was proven effective for eradicating colon cancer cells, whereas was benign to normal colon cells, thus effectively realizing the selective colon cancer cell therapeutics. Cancer cells possess much higher innate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) but much lower catalase levels than normal cells. Catalase, an effective H2O2 scavenger, prevented attacks on cells by reactive oxygen species induced from H2O2. The above intrinsic difference between cancer and normal cells was utilized to achieve selective colon cancer cell eradication through endocytosing efficient heterogeneous Fenton catalysts to trigger the formation of highly reactive oxygen species from H2O2. In this paper, SnFe2O4 nanocrystals, a newly noted outstanding paramagnetic heterogeneous Fenton catalyst, have been verified an effective selective colon cancerous cell treatment reagent of satisfactory blood compatibility.

Abstract
Tumor growth inhibition and adverse effect reduction together with metastasis alleviation are still the challenges that need to be overcome in cancer chemotherapy. Combinational therapy provides an alternative solution for these challenges. Nanoparticles are the ideal carriers for combinational therapy due to their versatile drug loading capacities and versatile tumor-targeting strategies. In this study, a cRGDfk modified nanogel system has been utilized to coload lidocaine, a voltage-gated Na+ channels inhibitor, and cisplatin, a common anticancer drug to obtain a tumor-targeted dual drugs-loaded nanogel system. The introduction of lidocaine not only promotes the cisplatin-induced apoptosis in vitro and in vivo but also alleviates the metastasis of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells in the mouse model. Besides, the body weight loss caused by cisplatin has also been relieved, and higher dose with less body weight loss can be achieved, which indicated the adverse effect caused by cisplatin-mediated chemotherapy has been alleviated. Furthermore, the introduction of peptide segment-cRGDfk, which presents high affinity to αvβ3 integrin, further increases the enrichment of drug-loaded nanogel in the tumor site. It favors the primary tumor growth inhibition. The results demonstrate the coloading of lidocaine and cisplatin by ligand-modified nanogels is a promising strategy for αvβ3 integrin-overexpressing breast cancer combinational therapy.

Abstract
Developing multifunctional nanoparticle-based theranostic systems for personalized cancer diagnosis and treatment is highly desirable. Herein, a magnetic targeting theranostic nanocapsule (NC-SPIOs-IR820-PTX) was fabricated by hierarchically assembling superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIOs), cyanine dye (IR820) and chemotherapeutic compound of paclitaxel (PTX) with poly(ε-caprolactone-co-lactide)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(ε-caprolactone-co-lactide) (PCLA-PEG-PCLA). The nanocapsules exhibited high stability and biocompatibility both in vitro and in vivo. The nanocomposites maintained their morphology in the cellular uptake and showed efficient tumoricidal activity. Most importantly, the external magnetic field could remotely control the nanocapsules and guide them to target tumors for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging. The synergistic therapeutic effects of NC-SPIOs-IR820-PTX with extra-magnetic field-induced tumor targeting ability have enhanced the co-therapy of photo-chemotherapy, resulting in significant tumor inhibition effects. Therefore, NC-SPIOs-IR820-PTX theranostics could be applied for magnetic field guided tumor targeting as well as multimodal MRI/NIR imaging, and imaging-guided combined therapy.

Abstract
Multifunctional nanoplatforms offering simultaneous imaging and therapeutic functions have been recognized as a highly promising strategy for personalized nanomedicine. In this work, we synthesized a farnesylthiosalicylate (FTS, a nontoxic Ras antagonist) based triblock copolymer POEG-b-PVBA-b-PFTS (POVF) composed of a poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) (POEG) hydrophilic block, a poly(FTS) hydrophobic block, and a poly(4-vinylbenzyl azide) (PVBA) middle block. The POVF polymer itself was active in inhibiting the tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Besides, it could serve as a carrier to effectively encapsulate paclitaxel (PTX) to form stable PTX/POVF mixed micelles with a diameter around 100 nm. Meanwhile, POVF polymer provides the active azide group for incorporating a positron emission tomography (PET) imaging modality via a facile strategy based on metal-free click chemistry. This nanocarrier system could not only be used for co-delivery of PTX and FTS, but also for PET imaging guided drug delivery. In the 4T1.2 tumor bearing mice, PET imaging showed rapid uptake and slow clearance of radiolabeled PTX/POVF nanomicelles in the tumor tissues. In addition, the FTS-based multi-functional nanocarrier was able to inhibit tumor growth effectively, and the co-delivery of PTX by the carrier further improved the therapeutic effect. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Due to the intrinsic heterogeneity of cancer and variability in individual patient response, personalized nanomedicine based on multi-functional carriers that integrate the functionalities of combination therapy and imaging guidance is highly demanded. Here we developed a multi-functional nanocarrier based on triblock copolymer POEG-b-PVBA-b-PFTS (POVF), which could not only be used for co-delivery of anticancer drugs PTX and Ras inhibitor FTS, but also for PET imaging guided drug delivery. The POVF carrier itself was active in inhibiting the tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Besides, it was effective in formulating PTX with high drug loading capacity, which further enhanced the tumor inhibition effect. Meanwhile, we developed a simple and universal approach to incorporate a PET radioisotope (Zr-89 and Cu-64) into the azide-containing PTX/POVF micelles via metal-free click chemistry in aqueous solution. The radiolabeled PTX/POVF micelles exhibited excellent serum stability, rapid tumor uptake and slow clearance, which validated the feasibility of the PET image-guided delivery of PTX/POVF micelles.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic materials have elicited increasing interest due to their high-efficiency magnetothermal conversion. However, it is difficult to effectively manage the magnetothermal energy due to the continuous magnetothermal effect at present. In this study, we designed and synthesized a novel Fe3O4/PEG/SiO2 composite phase change material (PCM) that can simultaneously realize magnetic-to-thermal conversion and thermal energy management because of outstanding thermal energy storage ability of PCM. The composite was fabricated by in situ doping of superparamagnetic Fe3O4 nanoclusters through a simple sol–gel method. The synthesized Fe3O4/PEG/SiO2 PCM exhibited good thermal stability, high phase change enthalpy, and excellent shape-stabilized property. This study provides an additional promising route for application of the magnetothermal effect.

Abstract
Poly(methyl methacrylate)/magnetite (PMMA/Fe3O4) nanocomposites were prepared with a two-step technique involving sonication. Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesized by ultrasound-assisted co-precipitation, and then PMMA/Fe3O4 (1-5 wt%) nanocomposites were synthesized via ultrasound-assisted in-situ emulsion polymerization. Best physical properties of the nanocomposites for different Fe3O4 loadings were: tensile strength (2 wt%) = 40.28 MPa, Young's modulus (2 wt%) = 2.4 GPa, percentage elongation (2 wt%) = 2.24%, glass transition temperature (2 wt%) = 122.5 °C, thermal inflection point (2 wt%) = 383 °C, electrical conductivity (5 wt%) = 2.0 × 10-13 S/cm, coercivity = 59.85 Oe (2 wt%), magnetic saturation (5 wt%) = 5.12 emu/g, magnetic remanence (5 wt%) = 0.56 emu/g, and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (5 wt%) = 1.45 dB. This unique combination of physical properties at relatively low Fe3O4 loading is attributed to ultrasound-mediated uniform dispersion of the nanofiller in the polymer matrix.
