Abstract
BACKGROUND Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a promising cancer treatment, but its application is limited by low photoconversion efficiency. In this study, we aimed to develop a novel graphene oxide (GO)-based nanocomposite hydrogel to improve the bioavailability of timosaponin AIII (TSAIII) while maximizing PTT efficacy and enhancing the antitumor effect. METHODS GO was modified via physical cross-linking with polyvinyl alcohol. The pore structure of the gel was adjusted by repeated freeze-thawing and the addition of polyethylene glycol 2000 to obtain a nanocomposite hydrogel (GPP). The GPP loaded with TSAIII constituted a GPP-TSAIII drug delivery system, and its efficacy was evaluated by in vitro cytotoxicity, apoptosis, migration, and uptake analyses, and in vivo antitumor studies. RESULTS The encapsulation rate of GPP-TSAIII was 66.36 ± 3.97%, with slower in vitro release and higher tumor cell uptake (6.4-fold) compared to TSAIII. GPP-TSAIII in combination with PTT showed better bioavailability and antitumor effects in vivo than did TSAIII, with a 1.9-fold higher tumor suppression rate than the TSAIII group. CONCLUSIONS GPP is a potential vehicle for delivery of TSAIII-like poor water-soluble anticancer drugs. The innovative PTT co-delivery system may serve as a safe and effective melanoma treatment platform for further anticancer translational purposes.

Abstract
Biofunctional surface-modification surpassed critical limitation of graphene oxide (GO) in biocompatibility and drug delivery efficiency, contributing to versatile biomedical applications. Here, a protein corona-bridged GO nanoplatform with high drug loading, longstanding hyperthermia, and controllable drug release, was engineered for amplified tumor therapeutic benefits. Structurally, GO surface was installed with phenylboronic acid (PBA) layer, on which iRGD conjugated apolipoprotein A-I (iRGD-apoA-I) was coordinated via boron electron-deficiency, to form the sandwich-like GO nanosheet (iAPG). The GO camouflaging by iRGD-apoA-I corona provided multimodal high doxorubicin (DOX) loading by π-π stacking and coordination, and generated a higher photothermal transformation efficiency simultaneously. In vitro studies demonstrated that iAPG significantly improved drug penetration and internalization, then achieved tumor-targeted DOX release through near-infrared (NIR) controlled endo/lysosome disruption. Moreover, iAPG mediated site-specific drug shuttling to produce a 3.53-fold enhancement of tumor drug-accumulation compared to the free DOX in vivo, and induced deep tumor penetration dramatically. Primary tumor ablation and spontaneous metastasis inhibition were further demonstrated with negligible side effects under optimal NIR. Taken together, our work provided multifunctional protein corona strategy to inorganic nanomaterials toward advantageous biomedical applications.

Abstract
The booming photothermal therapy (PTT) has achieved great progress in non-invasive oncotherapy, and paves a novel way for clinical oncotherapy. Of note, mild temperature PTT (mPTT) of 42–45 °C could avoid treatment bottleneck of the traditional PTT, including nonspecific injury to normal tissues, vasculature and host antitumor immunity. However, cancer cells can resist mPTT via heat shock response and autophagy, thus leading to insufficient mPTT monotherapy to ablate tumor. To overcome the deficient antitumor efficacy caused by thermo-resistance of cancer cells and mono mPTT, synergistic therapies towards cancer cells have been conducted with mPTT. This review summarizes the recent advances in nanomedicine-potentiated mPTT for cancer treatment, including strategies for enhanced single-mode mPTT and mPTT plus synergistic therapies. Moreover, challenges and prospects for clinical translation of nanomedicine-potentiated mPTT are discussed.

Abstract
In this study, a nanoscale graphene oxide polymer composite drug delivery system was synthesized and investigated for possible oral delivery of doxorubicin. A doxorubicin-loaded nanocomposite composed of graphene oxide/poly(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate)-g-poly(lactide)-b-polyethyleneglycol-b-poly(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate)-g-poly(lactide) GO/(PHEMA-g-PLA)-b-PEG-b-(PHEMA-g-PLA) was synthesized via reversible addition fragmentation chain (RAFT) and ring open polymerization (ROP). The GO/(PHEMA-g-PLA)-b-PEG-b- (PHEMA-g-PLA) nanocomposites was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), thermogravimetry (TG), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Doxorubicin was successfully loaded into the nanocomposite with a small particle size of 51 nm and an encapsulation efficiency (EE) of 82% ±1.12%. The results showed that DOX was attached to the graphene surface via hydrophobic interactions and π-π stacking. DOX release took place under neutral and acidic conditions, reaching 24.7% and 41.2% respectively after 72 h. Cytotoxicity experiments on 4T1 murine breast cancer cells demonstrated the antitumor activity of the DOX@GO nanocomposite. Biocompatibility, cell uptake, DAPI staining, Annexin V/PI double staining, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) assay, and scratch healing assay were measured. The DOX@graphene nanocomposite system could be promising for breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE The goal of this study was to develop chemotherapeutic drug-loaded photoactivable stealth polymer-coated silica based- mesoporous titania nanoplatforms for enhanced antitumor activity. METHODS Both in vitro and in vivo models of solvothermal treated photoactivable nanoplatforms were evaluated for efficient chemo-photothermal activity. A versatile nanocomposite that combined silica based- mesoporous titania nanocarriers (S-MTN) with the promising photoactivable agent, graphene oxide (G) modified with a stealth polymer (P) was fabricated to deliver chemotherapeutic agent, imatinib (I), (referred as S-MTN@IG-P) for near-infrared (NIR)-triggered drug delivery and enhanced chemo-photothermal therapy. RESULTS The fabricated S-MTN@IG-P nanoplatform showed higher drug loading (~20%) and increased drug release (~60%) in response to light in acidic condition (pH 5.0). As prepared nanoplatform significantly converted NIR light into thermal energy (43.2°C) to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). The pronounced cytotoxic effect was seen in both colon cancer cells (HCT-116 and HT-29) that was mediated through the chemotherapeutic effect of imatinib and the photothermal and ROS generation effects of graphene oxide. In vivo study also showed that S-MTN@IG-P could significantly accumulate into the tumor area and suppress the tumor growth under NIR irradiation without any biocompatibility issues. CONCLUSION Cumulatively, the above results showed promising effects of S-MTN@IG-P for effective chemo-phototherapy of colon cancer.

Abstract
Cancer has become one of the major threats to human survival. Because of antibodies specificity and low toxicity, it is the primary choice to diagnose and treat cancer. It is easy to be cleared from the blood circulation or distributing throughout the body and causes unnecessary side effects. It is necessary to delivery antibodies to the tumour region in a stable, safe and effective manner. In this review, we discuss the latest studies that aimed to delivery antibodies to tumour sites via several vector forms, such as liposomes, carbon nanomaterials, and gold nanomaterials. How to deliver antibodies to the target site is a difficulty for antibody therapy. This review summarises the antibody's therapeutic forms and carrier materials in recent years, and to explore how antibodies can be safely and stably delivered to the target site.
