Abstract
Neurological diseases are a major global health challenge, affecting hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Ultrasound therapy plays an irreplaceable role in the treatment of neurological diseases due to its noninvasive, highly focused, and strong tissue penetration capabilities. However, the complexity of brain and nervous system and the safety risks associated with prolonged exposure to ultrasound therapy severely limit the applicability of ultrasound therapy. Ultrasound-sensitive intelligent nanosystems (USINs) are a novel therapeutic strategy for neurological diseases that bring greater spatiotemporal controllability and improve safety to overcome these challenges. This review provides a detailed overview of therapeutic strategies and clinical advances of ultrasound in neurological diseases, focusing on the potential of USINs-based ultrasound in the treatment of neurological diseases. Based on the physical and chemical effects induced by ultrasound, rational design of USINs is a prerequisite for improving the efficacy of ultrasound therapy. Recent developments of ultrasound-sensitive nanocarriers and nanoagents are systemically reviewed. Finally, the challenges and developing prospects of USINs are discussed in depth, with a view to providing useful insights and guidance for efficient ultrasound treatment of neurological diseases.

Oxygen Vacancy Defect Enhanced NIR-II Photothermal Performance of BiO xCl Nanosheets for Combined Phototherapy of Cancer Guided by Multimodal Imaging. Adv Healthc Mater 2024; 13:e2303200. [PMID: 38183410 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202303200] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Indexed: 01/08/2024]
Abstract
Narrow photo-absorption range and low carrier utilization are significant barriers that restrict the antitumor efficiency of 2D bismuth oxyhalide (BiOX, X = Cl, Br, I) nanosheets (NSs). Introducing oxygen vacancy (OV) defects can expand the absorption range and improve carrier utilization, which are crucial but also challenging. In this study, a series of BiOxCl NSs with different OV defect concentrations (x = 1, 0.7, 0.5) is developed, which shows full spectrum absorption and strong absorption in the second near-infrared region (NIR-II). Density functional theory calculations are utilized to calculate the crystal structure and density states of BiOxCl, which confirm that part of the carriers is separated by OV enhanced internal electric field to improve carrier utilization. The carriers without redox reaction can be trapped in the OV, leading to great majority of photo-generated carriers promoting the photothermal performance. Triggered by single NIR-II (1064 nm), BiOxCl NSs' bidirectional efficient utilization of carriers achieves synchronously combined phototherapy, leading to enhanced tumor ablation and multimodal diagnostic in vitro and vivo. It is thus believed that this work provides an innovative strategy to design and construct nanoplatforms of indirect band gap semiconductors for clinical phototheranostics.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) as a promising non-invasive anti-tumor means features the preferable penetration depth, which nevertheless, usually can't work without sonosensitizers. Sonosensitizers produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the presence of ultrasound to directly kill tumor cells, and concurrently activate anti-tumor immunity especially after integration with tumor microenvironment (TME)-engineered nanobiotechnologies and combined therapy. Current sonosensitizers are classified into organic and inorganic ones, and current most reviews only cover organic sonosensitizers and highlighted their anti-tumor applications. However, there have few specific reviews that focus on inorganic sonosensitizers including their design principles, microenvironment regulation, etc. In this review, inorganic sonosensitizers are first classified according to their design rationales rather than composition, and the action rationales and underlying chemistry features are highlighted. Afterward, what and how TME is regulated based on the inorganic sonosensitizers-based SDT nanoplatform with an emphasis on the TME targets-engineered nanobiotechnologies are elucidated. Additionally, the combined therapy and their applications in non-cancer diseases are also outlined. Finally, the setbacks and challenges, and proposed the potential solutions and future directions is pointed out. This review provides a comprehensive and detailed horizon on inorganic sonosensitizers, and will arouse more attentions on SDT.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) combines ultrasound and sonosensitizers to produce toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) for cancer cell killing. Due to the high penetration depth of ultrasound (US), SDT breaks the depth penetration barrier of conventional photodynamic therapy for the treatment of deeply seated tumors. A key point to enhance the therapeutic efficiency of SDT is the development of novel sonosensitizers with promoted ability for ROS production. Herein, ultrathin Fe-doped bismuth oxychloride nanosheets with rich oxygen vacancies and bovine serum albumin coating on surface are designed as piezoelectric sonosensitizers (BOC-Fe NSs) for enhanced SDT. The oxygen vacancies of BOC-Fe NSs provide electron trapping sites to promote the separation of e- -h+ from the band structure, which facilitates the ROS production under the ultrasonic waves. The piezoelectric BOC-Fe NSs create a built-in field and the bending bands, further accelerating the ROS generation with US irradiation. Furthermore, BOC-Fe NSs can induce ROS generation by a Fenton reaction catalyzed by Fe ion with endogenous H2 O2 in tumor tissues for chemodynamic therapy. The as-prepared BOC-Fe NSs efficiently inhibited breast cancer cell growth in both in vitro and in vivo tests. The successfully development of BOC-Fe NSs provides a new nano-sonosensitiser option for enhanced SDT for cancer therapy.

Abstract
The defective BiOCl nanosheet exposed (001) facet with favorable photocatalytic performance was designed. The surface microstructure analysis and theoretical calculation certified the dominant exposed (001) facet and rich surface oxygen defects of Br--doped BiOCl (B-6) nanosheets. The energy level structure analysis indicates that the band gap can be narrowed and the light absorption range can be widened by introducing Br- to BiOCl, and the presence of defective energy levels increases the photogenerated carrier transfer efficiency. Moreover, the doping of Br- in BiOCl promotes the directional flow of electrons to the surface of B-6, which improves the photocatalytic performance of the sample. Thus, the Br--doped BiOCl can degrade 96.5% RhB within 6 min under visible-light irradiation with high apparent reaction rate constants of 0.51 min-1, exhibiting the strongest photocatalytic degradation performance. This work provides guidance for the preparation of Bi-based photocatalysts with excellent performance.

Abstract
Immunogenic cell death (ICD) can activate the body's immune system via dead cell antigens to achieve immunotherapy. Currently, small molecule drugs have been used for ICD treatment in clinical, however, how to precisely control the induced ICD while treating tumors is of great significance for improving therapeutic efficacy. Based on this, a sono/light dual response strategy to tumor therapy and activation of ICD is proposed. A topological synthesis method is used to obtain sulfur-doped bismuth oxide Bi2 O3-x Sx (BS) using BiF3 (BF) as a template through reduction and a morphology-controllable bismuth-based nano-semiconductor with a narrow bandgap is constructed. Under the stimulation of ultrasound, BS can produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) through the sonocatalytic process, which cooperates with BS to consume glutathione and enhance cellular oxidative damage, further inducing ICD. Due to the introduction of sulfur in the reduction reaction, BS can achieve photothermal conversion under light, and combine with ROS to treat tumors. Further, with the assistance of ivermectin (IVM) to form composite (BSM), combined with sono/light dual strategy, ICD is promoted and DCs maturation is accelerated. The proposed ICD-mediated hyperthermia/sonocatalytic therapy strategy will pay the way for synergetic enhancement of tumor treatment efficacy and provide a feasible idea for controllable induction of ICD.

Abstract
This perspective article emphasizes the significant role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in in vivo remedial therapy of various diseases and complications, capitalizing on their potential reactivity. Among the various influencers, herein, piezoelectric materials driven ROS generation activity is primarily considered. Intrinsic non-centrosymmetry of piezoelectric materials makes them suitable for distinct dipole formation in the presence of external mechanical stimuli. Such characteristics prompt the positioning of opposite charged carriers to execute associated redox transformations that effectively participate to generate ROS in the aqueous media of the cell cytoplasm, organelles and nucleus. The immense reactivity of piezoelectric material driven ROS is fostered to terminate cellular toxicity or curtail tumor cell growth, due to their higher specificity. This perspective considers the conjugated performance of piezoelectric materials and ultrasound which can remotely generate electrical charges that promote ROS production for therapeutic application. In particular, a substantial synopsis is provided for the remedial activity of numerous piezocatalytic materials in tumor cell apoptosis, antibacterial treatment, dental care and neurological disorders. Subsequently, the report precisely demonstrates the methods involving various spectrophotometric approaches for the analysis of the ROS. Finally, the key challenges of piezoelectric material-based therapy are discussed and systematic future progress is outlined.

Abstract
Recent considerable technological advances in ultrasound-based treatment modality provides a magnificent prospect for scientific communities to conquer the related diseases, which is featured with remarkable tissue penetration, non-invasive and non-thermal characteristics. As one of the critical elements that influences treatment outcomes, titanium (Ti)-based sonosensitizers with distinct physicochemical properties and exceptional sonodynamic efficiency have been applied extensively in the field of nanomedical applications. To date, a myriad of methodologies has been designed to manipulate the sonodynamic performance of titanium-involved nanomedicine and further enhance the productivity of reactive oxygen species for disease treatments. In this comprehensive review, the sonocatalytic optimization of diversified Ti-based nanoplatforms, including defect engineering, plasmon resonance modulation, heterojunction, modulating tumor microenvironment, as well as the development of synergistic therapeutic modalities is mainly focused. The state-of-the-art Ti-based nanoplatforms ranging from preparation process to the extensive medical applications are summarized and highlighted, with the goal of elaborating on future research prospects and providing a perspective on the bench-to-beside translation of these sonocatalytic optimization tactics. Furthermore, to spur further technological advancements in nanomedicine, the difficulties currently faced and the direction of sonocatalytic optimization of Ti-based therapeutic nanomedicine are proposed and outlooked.

Abstract
With the promotion of nanochemistry research, large numbers of nanomaterials have been applied in vivo to produce desirable cytotoxic substances in response to endogenous or exogenous stimuli for achieving disease-specific therapy. However, the performance of nanomaterials is a critical issue that is difficult to improve and optimize under biological conditions. Defect-engineered nanoparticles have become the most researched hot materials in biomedical applications recently due to their excellent physicochemical properties, such as optical properties and redox reaction capabilities. Importantly, the properties of nanomaterials can be easily adjusted by regulating the type and concentration of defects in the nanoparticles without requiring other complex designs. Therefore, this tutorial review focuses on biomedical defect engineering and briefly discusses defect classification, introduction strategies, and characterization techniques. Several representative defective nanomaterials are especially discussed in order to reveal the relationship between defects and properties. A series of disease treatment strategies based on defective engineered nanomaterials are summarized. By summarizing the design and application of defective engineered nanomaterials, a simple but effective methodology is provided for researchers to design and improve the therapeutic effects of nanomaterial-based therapeutic platforms from a materials science perspective.

Abstract
Regulating redox homeostasis in tumor cells and exploiting oxidative stress to damage tumors is an efficacious strategy for cancer therapy. However, the strengths of organic nanomaterials within this strategy are often ignored. In this work, a light-triggered reactive oxygen species (ROS) damaging nanoamplifier (IrP-T) was developed for enhanced photodynamic therapy (PDT). The IrP-T was fabricated with an amphiphilic iridium complex and a MTH1 inhibitor (TH287). Under green light stimulation, IrP-T catalyzed the oxygen in cells to generate ROS for realizing oxidative damage; meanwhile, TH287 increased the accumulation of 8-oxo-dGTP, further strengthening oxidative stress and inducing cell death. IrP-T could maximize the use of a small amount of oxygen, thus further boosting the efficacy of PDT in hypoxic tumors. The construction of nanocapsules provided a valuable therapeutic strategy for oxidative damage and synergizing PDT.

Abstract
Given the similarity with photocatalysis, sonodynamic therapy (SDT) can be defined as ultrasonic (US) catalysis. Encouraged by the principles of photocatalysis and defect chemistry, defect-rich nickel (Ni)-doped cobaltous oxide (Ni-CoO@PEG) porous hexagonal nanosheets have been synthesized as a sonosensitizer. The doping of Ni decreases the band gap that is testified by density functional theory to increase the US-generated charges. Under US irradiation, Ni-CoO@PEG nanosheets produce 1O2 as an active species that is determined by dissolved O2 and electrons. Moreover, the doping also brings abundant oxygen vacancies (OV) that not only are in favor of efficient separation of electron-hole but also enhance the interaction toward O2, boosting 1O2 generation. In addition, Ni-CoO@PEG shows robust mimic catalase (CAT) and peroxidase characterization to effectively improve the intratumor O2 content and oxidation stress. What is more, the nanosheets also possess glucose oxidase activity that can consume glucose to elevate the H2O2/acid level and to block the intracellular energy supply. The tandem nanozyme behaviors would further regulate the tumor microenvironment for assisting anticancer treatment. It is noted that Ni-CoO@PEG reveals a novel half-metallic feature endowing great magnetism and magnetic resonance imaging capacity. The above synergistic treatments exhibit outstanding anticancer performance that also evokes antitumor immunity to suppress metastasis and recurrence, efficiently.

Abstract
Decreasing the scavenging capacity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and enhancing ROS production are the two principal objectives in the development of novel sonosensitizers for sonodynamic therapy (SDT). Herein, we designed a protoporphyrin-sensitized bismuth-based semiconductor (P-NBOF) as a sonosensitizer to generate ROS and synergistically depleted glutathione for enhanced SDT against tumors. The bismuth-based nanomaterial (NBOF) is a wide-bandgap semiconductor. Sensitization by protoporphyrin made it easier to excite electrons under ultrasonic stimulation, and the energy of the lowest unoccupied electron orbital in protoporphyrin was higher than the conduction-band energy of NBOF. Under ultrasound excitation, the excited electrons in the protoporphyrin were injected into the conduction band of the NBOF, increasing its reducing ability leading to the production of more superoxide anion radicals and also helping to increase the charge separation of protoporphyrin leading to the production of more singlet oxygen. Meanwhile, P-NBOF continuously depleted glutathione, which was not only conducive to breaking the redox balance of the tumor microenvironment to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of SDT, but also promoted its degradation and metabolism. The construction of this P-NBOF sonosensitizer thus provided an effective strategy to enhance SDT for tumors. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: To enhance the efficacy of sonodynamic tumor therapy, we developed a degradable protoporphyrin-sensitized bismuth-based nano-semiconductor (P-NBOF) by optimizing the band structure and glutathione-depletion ability. Protoporphyrin in P-NBOF under excitation preferentially generates free electrons, which are then injected into the conduction band of NBOF, improving the reducing ability of NBOF and promoting the separation of electron-hole pairs, thereby enhancing the production capacity of reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, P-NBOF can deplete glutathione, reduce the scavenging of reactive oxygen species, and reactivate and amplify the effect of sonodynamic therapy. The construction of the nanotherapeutic platform provides an option for enhancing sonodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a crucial role in physiological and pathological processes, emerging as a therapeutic target in cancer. Owing to the high concentration of ROS in solid tumor tissues, ROS-based treatments, such as photodynamic therapy and chemodynamic therapy, and ROS-responsive drug delivery systems have been widely explored to powerfully and specifically suppress tumors. However, their anticancer efficacy is still hampered by the heterogeneous ROS levels, and thus comprehensively upregulating the ROS levels in tumor tissues can ensure an enhanced therapeutic effect, which can further sensitize and/or synergize with other therapies to inhibit tumor growth and metastasis. Herein, we review the recently emerging drug delivery strategies and technologies for increasing the H2O2, ˙OH, 1O2, and ˙O2- concentrations in cancer cells, including the efficient delivery of natural enzymes, nanozymes, small molecular biological molecules, and nanoscale Fenton-reagents and semiconductors and neutralization of intracellular antioxidant substances and localized input of mechanical and electromagnetic waves (such as ultrasound, near infrared light, microwaves, and X-rays). The applications of these ROS-upregulating nanosystems in enhancing and synergizing cancer therapies including chemotherapy, chemodynamic therapy, phototherapy, and immunotherapy are surveyed. In addition, we discuss the challenges of ROS-upregulating systems and the prospects for future studies.

Abstract
Cancer is a complex disease associated with a combination of abnormal physiological process and exhibiting dysfunctions in multiple systems. To provide effective treatment and diagnosis for cancer, current treatment strategies simultaneously focus on various tumor targets. Based on the rapid development of nanotechnology, nanocarriers have been shown to exhibit excellent potential for cancer therapy. Compared with nanoparticles with single functions, multifunctional nanoparticles are believed to be more aggressive and potent in the context of tumor targeting. However, the development of multifunctional nanoparticles is not simply an upgraded version of the original function, but involves a sophisticated system with a proper backbone, optimized modification sites, simple preparation method, and efficient function integration. Despite this, many well-designed multifunctional nanoparticles with promising therapeutic potential have emerged recently. Here, to give a detailed understanding and analyzation of the currently developed multifunctional nanoparticles, their platform structures with organic or inorganic backbones were systemically generalized. We emphasized on the functionalization and modification strategies, which provide additional functions to the nanoparticle. We also discussed the application combination strategies that were involved in the development of nanoformulations with functional crosstalk. This review thus provides an overview of the construction strategies and application advances of multifunctional nanoparticles.

Abstract
Excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by abnormal mitochondria is one of the critical triggers of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Existing nanocatalytic therapies can only catalyze the breakdown of ROS but cannot address the root cause of ROS production, i.e., abnormal mitochondria. Here, we designed an ultrasound (US) piezoelectric catalytic therapy, which can induce mitophagy in a spatiotemporally controlled manner to treat RA. The prepared two-dimensional piezoelectric nanosheets (NSs) Fe/BiOCl with US catalytic activity can efficiently generate electrons under US stimulation to meet the purpose of consuming H+ in the outer mitochondrial membrane and disturbing the H+ supply in the mitochondrial matrix. This causes depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), triggering the autophagy of mitochondria in regions of inflammation to eliminate the source of ROS regeneration. Analysis of cellular and RA model-related experiments showed that piezoelectric US-catalyzed therapy involving Fe/BiOCl NSs alleviated RA by inducing mitophagy. This provides an explanation of the mechanism for piezoelectric US catalytic therapy and suggests promising strategies for biomedical applications of US piezoelectric materials.

Abstract
The therapeutic outcomes of oral nanomedicines against colon cancer are heavily compromised by their lack of specific penetration into the internal tumor, favorable anti-tumor activity, and activation of anti-tumor immunity. Herein, hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 )/ultrasound (US)-driven mesoporous manganese oxide (MnOx )-based nanomotors are constructed by loading mitochondrial sonosensitizers into their mesoporous channels and orderly dual-functionalizing their surface with silk fibroin and chondroitin sulfate. The locomotory activities and tumor-targeting capacities of the resultant nanomotors (CS-ID@NMs) are greatly improved in the presence of H2 O2 and US irradiation, inducing efficient mucus-traversing and deep tumor penetration. The excess H2 O2 in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is decomposed into hydroxyl radicals and oxygen by an Mn2+ -mediated Fenton-like reaction, and the produced oxygen participates in sonodynamic therapy (SDT), yielding abundant singlet oxygen. The combined Mn2+ -mediated chemodynamic therapy and SDT cause effective ferropotosis of tumor cells and accelerate the release of tumor antigens. Importantly, animal experiments reveal that the treatment of combining oral hydrogel (chitosan/alginate)-embedding CS-ID@NMs and immune checkpoint inhibitors can simultaneously suppress the growth of primary and distal tumors through direct killing, reversion of immunosuppressive TME, and potentiation of systemic anti-tumor immunity, demonstrating that the CS-ID@NM-based platform is a robust oral system for synergistic treatment of colon cancer.

Abstract
Oxygen vacancy manipulation and hierarchical morphology construction in oxygen-containing semiconductors have been demonstrated to be effective strategies for developing high efficiency photocatalysts. In most studies of bismuth-based photocatalysts, hierarchical morphology and crystal defects are achieved separately, so the catalysts are not able to benefit from both features. Herein, using boiling ethylene glycol as the treatment solution, we developed an etching-recrystallization method for the fabrication of 3D hierarchical defective BiOCl at ambient pressure. The target hierarchical 3D-BiOCl is composed of self-assembled BiOCl nanosheets, which exhibit a hexagonal prism-like morphology on a micron scale, while simultaneously containing numerous oxygen vacancies within the crystal structure. Consequently, the target catalyst was endowed with a higher specific surface area, greater light harvesting capability, as well as more efficient separation and transfer of photo-excited charges than pristine BiOCl. As a result, 3D-BiOCl presented an impressive photocatalytic activity for the degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride in both visible light and natural white light emitting diode (LED) irradiation. Moreover, an extraordinary recycling property was demonstrated for the target photocatalyst thanks to its hierarchical structure. This study outlines a simple and energy-efficient approach for producing high-performance hierarchically defective BiOCl, which may also open up new possibilities for the morphological and crystal structural defect regulation of other Bi-based photocatalysts.

Environmental pollution and various diseases seriously affect the health of human beings. Photocatalytic nanomaterials (NMs) have been used for degrading pollution for a long time. However, the biomedical applications of photocatalytic NMs have only recently been investigated. As a typical photocatalytic NM, bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) exhibits excellent photocatalytic performance due to its unique layered structure, electronic properties, optical properties, good photocatalytic activity, and stability. Some environmental pollutants, such as volatile organic compounds, antibiotics and their derivatives, heavy metal ions, pesticides, and microorganisms, could not only be detected but also be degraded by BiOCl-based NMs due to their excellent photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical properties. In particular, BiOCl-based NMs have been used as theranostic platforms because of their CT and photoacoustic imaging abilities, as well as photodynamic and photothermal performances. However, some reviews have only profiled the applications of dye degradation, hydrogen or oxygen production, carbon dioxide reduction, or nitrogen fixation of BiOCl NMs. There is a notable knowledge gap regarding the systematic study of the relationship between BiOCl NMs and human health, especially the biomedical applications of BiOCl-based NMs. As a result, in this review, the recent progress of BiOCl-based photocatalytic degradation and biomedical applications are summarized, and the improvement of BiOCl-based NMs in environmental and healthcare fields are also discussed. Finally, a few insights into the current status and future perspectives of BiOCl-based NMs are given.
