Abstract
The advent of numerous treatment modalities with desirable therapeutic efficacy has been made possible by the fast development of nanomedicine and materdicine, among which the ultrasound (US)-triggered sonocatalytic process as minimal or non-invasive method has been frequently employed for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. In comparison to phototherapeutic approaches with inherent penetration depth limitations, sonocatalytic therapy shatters the depth limit of photoactivation and offers numerous remarkable prospects and advantages, including mitigated side effects and appropriate tissue-penetration depth. Nevertheless, the optimization of sonosensitizers and therapies remains a significant issue in terms of precision, intelligence and efficiency. In light of the fact that nanomedicine and materdicine can effectively enhance the theranostic efficiency, we herein aim to furnish a cutting-edge review on the latest progress and development of nanomedicine/materdicine-enabled sonocatalytic therapy. The design methodologies and biological features of nanomedicine/materdicine-based sonosensitizers are initially introduced to reveal the underlying relationship between composition/structure, sonocatalytic function and biological effect, in accompany with a thorough discussion of nanomedicine/materdicine-enabled synergistic therapy. Ultimately, the facing challenges and future perspectives of this intriguing sonocatalytic therapy are highlighted and outlined to promote technological advancements and clinical translation in efficient disease treatment.

Abstract
The rapid development of nanomedicine and nanobiotechnology has allowed the emergence of various therapeutic modalities with excellent therapeutic efficiency and biosafety, among which, the sonodynamic therapy (SDT), a combination of low-intensity ultrasound and sonosensitizers, is emerging as a promising noninvasive treatment modality for cancer treatment due to its deeper penetration, good patient compliance, and minimal damage to normal tissue. The sonosensitizers are indispensable components in the SDT process because their structure and physicochemical properties are decisive for therapeutic efficacy. Compared to the conventional and mostly studied organic sonosensitizers, inorganic sonosensitizers (noble metal-based, transition metal-based, carbon-based, and silicon-based sonosensitizers) display excellent stability, controllable morphology, and multifunctionality, which greatly expand their application in SDT. In this review, the possible mechanisms of SDT including the cavitation effect and reactive oxygen species generation are briefly discussed. Then, the recent advances in inorganic sonosensitizers are systematically summarized and their formulations and antitumor effects, particularly highlighting the strategies for optimizing the therapeutic efficiency, are outlined. The challenges and future perspectives for developing state-of-the-art sonosensitizers are also discussed. It is expected that this review will shed some light on future screening of decent inorganic sonosensitizers for SDT.

Abstract
Type-1 and type-2 diabetes mellitus are metabolic disorders governed by the functional efficiency of pancreatic β-cells. The activities of the cells toward insulin production, storage, and secretion are accompanied by Zn(II) ions. Thus, for non-invasive pathology of the cell, developing Zn(II) ion-responsive MRI-contrast agents has earned considerable interest. In this report, we have synthesized a seven-coordinate, mono(aquated) Mn(II) complex (1), which is impregnated within a porous silica nanosphere of size 13.2 nm to engender the Mn(II)-based MRI contrast agent, complex 1@SiO2NP. The surface functionalization of the nanosphere by the Py2Pic organic moiety for the selective binding of Zn(II)-ions yields complex 1@SiO2-Py2PicNP, which exhibits r1 = 13.19 mM-1 s-1. The relaxivity value elevates to 20.38 mM-1 s-1 in the presence of 0.6 mM BSA protein at pH 7.4. Gratifyingly, r1 increases linearly with the increase of Zn(II) ion concentration and reaches 39.01 mM-1 s-1 in the presence of a 40 fold excess of the ions. Thus, Zn(II)-responsive contrast enhancement in vivo is envisaged by employing the nanoparticle. Indeed, a contrast enhancement in the pancreas is observed when complex 1@SiO2-Py2PicNP and a glucose stimulus are administered in fasted healthy C57BL/6 mice at 7 T.

Abstract
With the rapid development of nanotechnology and nanomedicine, there are great interests in employing nanomaterials to improve the efficiency of disease diagnosis and treatment. The clinical translation of hafnium oxide (HfO2 ), commercially namedas NBTXR3, as a new kind of nanoradiosensitizer for radiotherapy (RT) of cancers has aroused extensive interest in researches on Hf-based nanomaterials for biomedical application. In the past 20 years, Hf-based nanomaterials have emerged as potential and important nanomedicine for computed tomography (CT)-involved bioimaging and RT-associated cancer treatment due to their excellent electronic structures and intrinsic physiochemical properties. In this review, a bibliometric analysis method is employed to summarize the progress on the synthesis technology of various Hf-based nanomaterials, including HfO2 , HfO2 -based compounds, and Hf-organic ligand coordination hybrids, such as metal-organic frameworks or nanoscaled coordination polymers. Moreover, current states in the application of Hf-based CT-involved contrasts for tissue imaging or cancer diagnosis are reviewed in detail. Importantly, the recent advances in Hf-based nanomaterials-mediated radiosensitization and synergistic RT with other current mainstream treatments are also generalized. Finally, current challenges and future perspectives of Hf-based nanomaterials with a view to maximize their great potential in the research of translational medicine are also discussed.

Abstract
The efficacy of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is often limited by the insolubility of sonosensitizers and unfavorable hypoxia tumor microenvironment. To meet this challenge, an oxygen-generating polymer vesicle is developed to achieve enhanced SDT. The hydrophilic coronas and the hydrophobic membrane of polymer vesicles can function as different modules for the simultaneous delivery of manganese dioxide and chlorine e6 (designated as Ce6-MnO2-PVs). These Ce6-MnO2-PVs exhibited high catalase mimetic activity and could efficiently generate reactive oxygen species upon ultrasound activation. In vivo results showed that Ce6-MnO2-PVs almost completely eradicated the subcutaneous tumors (94% volume reduction) without any obvious systemic toxicity. Moreover, these Ce6-MnO2-PVs showed effective behavior for the attenuation of crucial tumor progression-releated factors. Specially, the expression levels of both hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and vascular endothelial growth factor at 4 h post-injection detected by immunofluorescence were reduced by 66% and 52%, respectively. These findings suggest that Ce6-MnO2-PVs may serve as an effective and safe platform for enahnced SDT in hypoxic tumors.

Abstract
Theranostic nanoplatforms integrating diagnostic and therapeutic functions have received considerable attention in the past decade. Among them, hollow manganese (Mn)-based nanoplatforms are superior since they combine the advantages of hollow structures and the intrinsic theranostic features of Mn2+. Specifically, the hollow cavity can encapsulate a variety of small-molecule drugs, such as chemotherapeutic agents, photosensitizers and photothermal agents, for chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), respectively. After degradation in the tumor microenvironment (TME), the released Mn2+ is able to act simultaneously as a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast agent (CA) and as a Fenton-like agent for chemodynamic therapy (CDT). More importantly, synergistic treatment outcomes can be realized by reasonable and optimized design of the hollow nanosystems. This review summarizes various Mn-based hollow nanoplatforms, including hollow MnxOy, hollow matrix-supported MnxOy, hollow Mn-doped nanoparticles, hollow Mn complex-based nanoparticles, hollow Mn-cobalt (Co)-based nanoparticles, and hollow Mn-iron (Fe)-based nanoparticles, for MR imaging-guided cancer therapies. Finally, we discuss the potential obstacles and perspectives of these hollow Mn-based nanotheranostics for translational applications. Mn-based hollow nanoplatforms such as hollow MnxOy nanoparticles, hollow matrix-supported MnxOy nanoparticles, Mn-doped hollow nanoparticles, Mn complex-based hollow nanoparticles, hollow Mn-Co-based nanoparticles and hollow Mn-Fe-based nanoparticles show great promise in cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Copper-based nanomaterials (Cu-based NMs) with favorable biocompatibility and unique properties have attracted the attention of many biomedical researchers. Cu-based NMs are one of the most widely studied materials in cancer treatment. In recent years, great progress has been made in the field of biomedicine, especially in the treatment and diagnosis of tumors. This review begins with the classification of Cu-based NMs and the recent synthetic strategies of Cu-based NMs. Then, according to the abundant and special properties of Cu-based NMs, their application in biomedicine is summarized in detail. For biomedical imaging, such as photoacoustic imaging, positron emission tomography imaging, and multimodal imaging based on Cu-based NMs are summarized, as well as strategies to improve the diagnostic effectiveness. Moreover, a series of unique structures and functions as well as the underlying property activity relationship of Cu-based NMs were shown to highlight their promising therapeutic performance. Cu-based NMs have been widely used in monotherapies, such as photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Moreover, the sophisticated design in composition, structure, and surface fabrication of Cu-based NMs can endow these NMs with more modalities in cancer diagnosis and therapy. To further improve the efficiency of cancer treatment, combined therapy based on Cu-based NMs was introduced in detail. Finally, the challenges, critical factors, and future prospects for the clinical translation of Cu-based NMs as multifunctional theranostic agents were also considered and discussed. The aim of this review is to provide a better understanding and key consideration for the rational design of this increasingly important new paradigm of Cu-based NMs as theranostic agents.

Multifunctional nanosystems sequentially regulating intratumor Fenton chemistry by remodeling the tumor microenvironment to reinforce chemodynamic therapy. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 138:212957. [PMID: 35913243 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2022.212957] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2021] [Revised: 05/07/2022] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The particularity of the tumor microenvironment (TME) significantly limits the efficiency of chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Although various measures have been taken to improve the efficiency of CDT, how to organically integrate them into one nanosystem to achieve efficient synergy for CDT according to predetermined procedures is still an urgent problem to be solved. This work reported a multifunctional nanosystem, TPI@PPCAI, which comprised the inner triphenylphosphine modified D-α-Tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS-PPh3) micelles loading iron-oxide nanoparticles (IONs), and the outer poly (dopamine-co-protocatechuic acid) (PDA-PA, PP) coating modified with carbonic anhydrase IX inhibitor (CAI). TPI@PPCAI remodeled TME by sequential function adjustment to make it suitable for the efficient Fenton reactions: CAI first inhibited the overexpressed CA IX to result in intracellular acidification, which combined with near-infrared light (NIR) irradiation to accelerate the PP coating degradation, thereby promoting the exposure and disintegration of the inner micellar structure to release TPGS-PPh3 and IONs. The TPGS-PPh3 further elevated the intracellular ROS basal level by targeting and interfering with the mitochondrial function. Therefore, the TME was transformed into an acidic microenvironment with high ROS levels, which vigorously promoted the Fenton reaction mediated by IONs with the aid of photothermal effect induced by PP coating via NIR irradiation, ultimately earning high-efficiency CDT on xenograft MDA-MB-231 tumor-bearing mice. This study improved the efficiency of Fenton reaction in biological systems through the practical design of nanostructures and provided a novel thought for ROS-mediated therapy.

Abstract
Photothermal-enhanced chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has been attracting increasing attention for effective tumour treatment. Nevertheless, even though Mn-based nanostructures are promising CDT agents, their photothermal conversion capacities are not good enough for an ideal combination therapy. In this work, a bifunctional Bi2-xMnxO3 nanoplatform was developed, with tumour microenvironment (TME)-triggered photothermal therapy (PTT)-enhanced CDT, for a collaborative therapy for tumours. The doping of a small amount of Bi tuned the photothermal and CDT performance of Bi2-xMnxO3, thus promoting the photothermal conversion ability as well as accelerating the ˙OH generation. The existence of reductive Mn4+ could disrupt the internal tumour redox balance by enhancing glutathione (GSH) consumption to improve the CDT effect. Meanwhile, the mild photothermal effect could accelerate the depletion of GSH and the generation of ˙OH in the tumour region after laser irradiation, thus promoting the CDT effect. This manganese-based nanoplatform provides a good strategy for tumour therapy via TME-mediated PTT-enhanced CDT.

Abstract
Designing new oxygenation nanomaterials by oxygen-generating or oxygen-carrying strategies in hypoxia-associated anti-tumor therapy is a high priority target yet challenge. In this work, we fabricated a nanoplatform involving Fenton-like reaction, Pd@MOF-525@HA, to relieve tumor hypoxia via oxygen-generating strategy for enhanced oxygen-dependent anti-tumor therapy. Thereinto, the porphyrinic MOF-525 can produce singlet oxygen (1O2) via light or ultrasonic irradiation for photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy. Notably, the well-dispersed Pd nanocubes within MOF-525 can convert H2O2 into O2 to mitigate the hypoxic environment for enhanced therapy outcome. Moreover, the two-photon activity and cancer cell specific targeting capability of Pd@MOF-525@HA gave rise to deeper tissue penetration and near-infrared light-induced fluorescence imaging to achieve precise guidance for cancer therapy. This work provides a feasible way in designing new oxygenation nanomaterials to relieve tumor hypoxia for enhanced cancer treatment.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has excellent potential in the clinical monitoring of tumors because it can provide high-resolution soft tissue imaging. However, commercial contrast agents (CAs) used in MRI still have some problems such as potential toxicity to the human body, low relaxivity, and a short MRI acquisition window. In this study, ultrasmall MnSe nanoparticles are synthesized by living Staphylococcus aureus cells. The as-prepared MnSe nanoparticles are monodispersed with a uniform particle size (3.50 ± 0.52 nm). Due to the ultrasmall particle size and good water solubility, the MnSe nanoparticles exhibit in vitro high longitudinal relaxivity properties (14.12 ± 1.85 mM-1·s-1). The CCK-8 colorimetric assay, histological analysis, and body weight results show that the MnSe nanoparticles do not have appreciable toxicity on cells and organisms. Besides, the MnSe nanoparticles as T1-MRI CAs offer a long MRI acquisition window to tumor imaging (∼7 h). This work provides a promising T1-MRI CA for clinical tumor imaging and a good reference for the application of functional MnSe nanoparticles in the biomedicine field.
