Abstract
Nanoparticle formulations blending optical imaging contrast agents and therapeutics have been a cornerstone of preclinical theranostic applications. However, nanoparticle-based theranostics clinical translation faces challenges on reproducibility, brightness, photostability, biocompatibility, and selective tumor targeting and penetration. In this study, we integrate multimodal imaging and therapeutics within cancer cell-derived nanovesicles, leading to biomimetic bright optotheranostics for monitoring cancer metastasis. Upon NIR light irradiation, the engineered optotheranostics enables deep visualization and precise localization of metastatic lung, liver, and solid breast tumors along with solid tumor ablation. Metastatic cell-derived nanovesicles (∼80 ± 5 nm) are engineered to encapsulate imaging (emissive organic dye and gold nanoparticles) and therapeutic agents (anticancer drug doxorubicin and photothermally active organic indocyanine green dye). Systemic administration of biomimetic bright optotheranostic nanoparticles shows escape from mononuclear phagocytic clearance with (i) rapid tumor accumulation (3 h) and retention (up to 168 h), (ii) real-time monitoring of metastatic lung, liver, and solid breast tumors and (iii) 3-fold image-guided solid tumor reduction. These findings are supported by an improvement of X-ray, fluorescence, and photoacoustic signals while demonstrating a tumor reduction (201 mm3) in comparison with single therapies that includes chemotherapy (134 mm3), photodynamic therapy (72 mm3), and photothermal therapy (88mm3). The proposed innovative platform opens new avenues to improve cancer diagnosis and treatment outcomes by allowing the monitorization of cancer metastasis, allowing the precise cancer imaging, and delivering synergistic therapeutic agents at the solid tumor site.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 304:123375.

Abstract
Using sliver nanoparticles modified with β-cyclodextrin and α-iron oxide (β-CD/α-Fe2O3@AgNPs) as surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrate, two sensitive methods for detecting apramycin and kanamycin were established. The synthesized β-CD/α-Fe2O3@AgNPs were characterized through ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). The interactions of the two drugs and substrate were researched by UV-vis absorption and fourier transform infrared (FT-IR). The linear relationship between apramycin/kanamycin and SERS intensity was observed. The limits of detection (LODs) (S/N = 3) were 3.42 and 0.31 nmol/L. The two SERS methods were effectively applied to detect apramycin and kanamycin in beef samples and commercial injection. The recoveries were 96.84 - 102.20% with relative standard deviations (RSD) of 0.6---4.0% for apramycin and 95.67 - 103.18% with RSD of 1.4 - 2.5% for kanamycin, respectively.

Abstract
A hexameric quaternary ammonium salt surfactant Tz-6C12QC featuring a rigid triazine spacer and six ammonium groups was synthesized. The molecular structure and aggregation behavior of Tz-6C12QC were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, surface tension, conductivity, dynamic light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy, etc. Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulation was employed to investigate the self-assembly behavior of Tz-6C12QC at different concentrations. The rheological behavior of the polyacrylamide/Tz-6C12QC system was characterized by shear rheology. The results indicated that Tz-6C12QC exhibited superior surface activity and lower surface tension compared to conventional surfactants. Rheology analysis revealed that Tz-6C12QC had a significant viscosity reduction effect on polyacrylamide. DLS and TEM indicated that, as the concentration of Tz-6C12QC increased, monomer associations, spherical aggregations, vesicles, tubular micelles, and bilayer vesicles were sequentially formed in the solution. This study presents a synthetic approach for polysurfactants with a rigid spacer and sheds light on the self-assembly process of micelles.

Abstract
Noble-metal nanoparticles (NMNPs), with their outstanding properties, have been arousing the interest of scientists for centuries. Although our knowledge of them is much more significant today, and we can obtain NMNPs in various sizes, shapes, and compositions, our interest in them has not waned. When talking about noble metals, gold, silver, and platinum come to mind first. Still, we cannot forget about elements belonging to the so-called platinum group, such as ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, and iridium, whose physical and chemical properties are very similar to those of platinum. It makes them highly demanded and widely used in various applications. This review presents current knowledge on the preparation of all noble metals in the form of nanoparticles and their assembling with carbon supports. We focused on the catalytic applications of these materials in the fuel-cell field. Furthermore, the influence of supporting materials on the electrocatalytic activity, stability, and selectivity of noble-metal-based catalysts is discussed.
