Abstract
High energy and high risk have always restricted the application of materials in the military and civilian fields. To achieve this goal, researchers have studied the structural characteristics and structure-activity relationship of biomass polyphenol material to obtain core-shell biomass polyphenol composite energetic materials through molecular and structural design. The interface structure has a significant impact on the safety performance and thermal stability of energetic materials. The unique advantages of natural biomass polyphenol chemistry (tannic acid and tea polyphenols) include the structural design and performance control of energetic materials. This paper provides a review of the preparation of core-shell biomass polyphenol energetic materials, which involve the use of polyphenols as the shell layer, surface modification layer, and intermediate layer to enhance intermolecular interactions. This approach aims to enhance the thermal stability and reduce the sensitivity. Furthermore, the paper offers suggestions for potential future research directions based on the findings.

J Nanobiotechnology 2024; 22:320. [PMID: 38849820 PMCID: PMC11162024 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02593-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Simultaneously modulating the inflammatory microenvironment and promoting local bone regeneration is one of the main challenges in treating bone defects. In recent years, osteoimmunology has revealed that the immune system plays an essential regulatory role in bone regeneration and that macrophages are critical components. In this work, a mussel-inspired immunomodulatory and osteoinductive dual-functional hydroxyapatite nano platform (Gold/hydroxyapatite nanocomposites functionalized with polydopamine - PDA@Au-HA) is developed to accelerate bone tissues regeneration by regulating the immune microenvironment. PDA coating endows nanomaterials with the ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) and anti-inflammatory properties, and it also exhibits an immunomodulatory ability to inhibit M1 macrophage polarization and activate M2 macrophage secretion of osteogenesis-related cytokines. Most importantly, this nano platform promotes the polarization of M2 macrophages and regulates the crosstalk between macrophages and pre-osteoblast cells to achieve bone regeneration. Au-HA can synergistically promote vascularized bone regeneration through sustained release of Ca and P particles and gold nanoparticles (NPs). This nano platform has a synergistic effect of good compatibility, scavenging of ROS, and anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory capability to accelerate the bone repair process. Thus, our research offers a possible therapeutic approach by exploring PDA@Au-HA nanocomposites as a bifunctional platform for tissue regeneration.

Abstract
With the increment in global energy consumption and severe environmental pollution, it is urgently needed to explore green and sustainable materials. Inspired by nature, catechol groups in mussel adhesion proteins have been successively understood and utilized as novel biomimetic materials. In parallel, cellulose presents a wide class of functional materials rating from macro-scale to nano-scale components. The cross-over among both research fields alters the introduction of impressive materials with potential engineering properties, where catechol-containing materials supply a general stage for the functionalization of cellulose or cellulose derivatives. In this review, the role of catechol groups in the modification of cellulose and cellulose derivatives is discussed. A broad variety of advanced applications of cellulose-based catechol-containing materials, including adhesives, hydrogels, aerogels, membranes, textiles, pulp and papermaking, composites, are presented. Furthermore, some critical remaining challenges and opportunities are studied to mount the way toward the rational purpose and applications of cellulose-based catechol-containing materials.

Abstract
Taking advantage of its adhesive nature and chemical reactivity, polydopamine (PDA) has recently been integrated with plasmonic nanoparticles to yield unprecedented hybrid nanostructures. With advanced architectures and optical properties, PDA-based plasmonic nanocomposites have showcased their potential in a wide spectrum of plasmon-driven applications, ranging from catalysis and chemical sensing, to drug delivery and photothermal therapy. The rational design of PDA-based plasmonic nanocomposites entails different material features of PDA and necessitates a thorough understanding of the sophisticated PDA chemistry; yet, there is still a lack of a systematic review on their fabrication strategies, plasmonic properties, and applications. In this Highlight review, five representative types of PDA-based plasmonic nanocomposites will be featured. Specifically, their design principles, synthetic strategies, and optical behaviors will be elucidated with an emphasis on the irreplaceable roles of PDA in the synthetic mechanisms. Together, their essential functions in diverse applications will be outlined. Lastly, existing challenges and outlooks on the rational design and assembly of next-generation PDA-based plasmonic nanocomposites will be presented. This Highlight review aims to provide synthetic insights and hints to inspire and aid researchers to innovate PDA-based plasmonic nanocomposites.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive malignancy with a 5 year survival rate less than 12%. This malignancy is closely related to the unique tumor microenvironment (TME), which is characterized by a hypovascular and hyperdense extracellular matrix, making it difficult for drugs to permeate the tumor center. Near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging, which has high sensitivity and resolution, may improve the survival rate of PDAC patients. In this study, we first used JS-K (O2-(2,4-dinitrophenyl) 1-[(4-ethoxycarbonyl) piperazine-1-yl] diazene-1-ium-1,2-diolate) to specifically dilate blood vessels within the TME of PDAC patients and subsequently injected IR820-PEG-MNPs (IPM NPs) to diagnose and treat orthotopic PDAC. We found that JS-K promoted the accumulation of IPM NPs in orthotopic Pan02 tumor-bearing mice and was able to increase the tumor signal-to-background ratio (SBR) in the orthotopic PDAC area by 41.5%. In addition, surgical navigation in orthotopic Pan02 tumor-bearing mice and complete tumor resection based on fluorescence imaging were achieved with a detection sensitivity of 81.0%. Moreover, we verified the feasibility of the combination of laparoscopy and photothermal ablation (PTA) for the treatment of PDAC. Finally, we demonstrated that IPM NPs had greater affinity for human PDAC tissues than for normal pancreatic tissues ex vivo, preliminarily highlighting the potential for clinical translation of these NPs. In conclusion, we developed and validated a novel sequential delivery strategy that promotes the accumulation of nanoagents in the tumor area and can be used for the diagnosis and treatment of PDAC.

Abstract
The prevention of bacterial colonization and the stimulation of osseointegration are two major requirements for bone-interfacing materials to reduce the incidence of complications and promote the restoration of the patient's health. The present investigation developed an effective, two-step functionalization of 3D printed scaffolds intended for bone-interfacing applications using a simple polydopamine (PDA) dip-coating method followed by the formation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) after a second coating step in silver nitrate. 3D printed polymeric substrates coated with a ∼20 nm PDA layer and 70 nm diameter AgNPs proved effective in hindering Staphylococcus aureus biofilm formation, with a 3000-8000-fold reduction in the number of bacterial colonies formed. The implementation of porous geometries significantly accelerated osteoblast-like cell growth. Microscopy characterization further elucidated homogeneity, features, and penetration of the coating inside the scaffold. A proof-of-concept coating on titanium substrates attests to the transferability of the method to other materials, broadening the range of applications both in and outside the medical sector. The antibacterial efficiency of the coating is likely to lead to a decrease in the number of bacterial infections developed after surgery in the presence of these coatings on prosthetics, thus translating to a reduction in revision surgeries and improved health outcomes.

Abstract
Minimal understanding of the formation mechanism and structure of polydopamine (pDA) and its natural analogue, eumelanin, impedes the practical application of these versatile polymers and limits our knowledge of the origin of melanoma. The lack of conclusive structural evidence stems from the insolubility of these materials, which has spawned significantly diverse suggestions of pDA's structure in the literature. We discovered that pDA is soluble in certain ionic liquids. Using these ionic liquids (ILs) as solvents, we present an experimental methodology to solvate pDA, enabling us to identify pDA's chemical structure. The resolved pDA structure consists of self-assembled supramolecular aggregates that contribute to the increasing complexity of the polymer. The underlying molecular energetics of pDA solvation and a macroscopic picture of the disruption of the aggregates using IL solvents have been investigated, along with studies of the aggregation mechanism in water.

Abstract
Multifunctional inorganic nanomaterials have opened new avenues for cancer diagnosis and therapy. However, the difficulty to functionalize them has prevented their wider application, owing to the lack of active groups on their surfaces. Here we report a novel method to functionalize manganese whitlockite (Mn-WH) with polydopamine (PDA) and hairpin DNA (hpDNA) to improve the water stability and anti-cancer effects of Mn-WH nanoparticles (Mn-WH NPs). Compared to WH NPs, the Mn-WH@PDA-hpDNA NPs exhibit better water dispersibility, high drug loading capacity, excellent photothermal performance, stable MRI imaging ability, and outstanding chemo-photothermal synergistic therapeutic potential against tumors. After intratumoral injection in nude mice, the Mn-WH@PDA-hpDNA-DOX NPs promote complete tumor ablation upon exposure to 808 laser-irradiation. The nanoparticles showed no major side effects or toxicity. Thus, these results indicate that the Mn-WH@PDA-hpDNA-DOX NPs have excellent potential as anti-cancer agents, along with excellent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) capabilities and the reported functionalization approach provides a novel and effective strategy for the surface functionalization of inorganic nanomaterials.

Abstract
Currently, tumor treatments are characterized by intelligence, diversity and personalization, but the therapeutic reagents used are often limited in clinical efficacy due to problems with water solubility, targeting, stability and multidrug resistance. To remedy these shortcomings, the application of multifunctional nanotechnology in the biomedical field has been widely studied. Synthetic melanin nanoparticles (MNPs) surfaces which contain highly reactive chemical groups such as carboxyl, hydroxyl and amine groups, can be used as a reaction platform on which to graft different functional components. In addition, MNPs easily adhere to substrate surface, and serve as a secondary reaction platform to modify it. The multifunctionality and intrinsic biocompatibility make melanin-like nanoparticles promising as a multifunctional and powerful nanoplatform for oncological applications. This paper first reviews the preparation methods, polymerization mechanisms and physicochemical properties of melanin including natural melanin and chemically synthesized melanin to guide scholars in MNP-based design. Then, recent advances in MNPs especially synthetic polydopamine (PDA) melanin for various medical oncological applications are systematically and thoroughly described, mainly focusing on bioimaging, photothermal therapy (PTT), and drug delivery for tumor therapy. Finally, based on the investigated literature, the current challenges and future directions for clinical translation are reasonably discussed, focusing on the innovative design of MNPs and further elucidation of pharmacokinetics. This paper is a timely and comprehensive and detailed study of the progress of MNPs in tumor therapy, especially PTT, and provides ideas for the design of personalized and customizable oncology nanomedicines to address the heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
Background The accumulating evidence confirms that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a critical regulatory role in the progression of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). But, the application of lncRNAs in gene therapy remains scarce. Here, we investigated the efficacy of a delivery system by introducing the plasmid-encoding tumor suppressor lncRNA-SLERCC (SLERCC) in RCC cells. Methods We performed lncRNAs expression profiling in paired cancer and normal tissues through microarray and validated in our clinical data and TCGA dataset. The Plasmid-SLERCC@PDA@MUC12 nanoparticles (PSPM-NPs) were tested in vivo and in vitro, including cellular uptake, entry, CCK-8 assay, tumor growth inhibition, histological assessment, and safety evaluations. Furthermore, experiments with nude mice xenografts model were performed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of PSPM-NPs nanotherapeutic system specific to the SLERCC. Results We found that the expression of SLERCC was downregulated in RCC tissues, and exogenous upregulation of SLERCC could suppress metastasis of RCC cells. Furthermore, high expression DNMT3A was recruited at the SLERCC promoter, which induced aberrant hypermethylation, eventually leading to downregulation of SLERCC expression in RCC. Mechanistically, SLERCC could directly bind to UPF1 and exert tumor-suppressive effects through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting progression and metastasis in RCC. Subsequently, the PSPM-NPs nanotherapeutic system can effectively inhibit the growth of RCC metastases in vivo. Conclusions Our findings suggested that SLERCC is a promising therapeutic target and that plasmid-encapsulated nanomaterials targeting transmembrane metastasis markers may open a new avenue for the treatment in RCC.

Abstract
Ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (uSPIOs) are attractive platforms for the development of smart contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Oleic acid-capped uSPIOs are commercially available yet hydrophobic, hindering in vivo applications. A hydrophilic ligand with high affinity toward uSPIO surfaces can render uSPIOs water-soluble, biocompatible, and highly stable under physiological conditions. A small overall hydrodynamic diameter ensures optimal pharmacokinetics, tumor delivery profiles, and, of particular interest, enhanced T 1 MR contrasts. In this study, for the first time, we synthesized a ligand that not only fulfills the as-proposed properties but also provides multiple reactive groups for further modifications. The synthesis delivers a facile approach using commercially available reactants, with resultant uSPIO-ligand constructs assembled through a single-step ligand exchange process. Structural and molecular size analyses confirmed size uniformity and small hydrodynamic diameter of the constructs. On average, 43 reactive amine groups were present per uSPIO nanoparticle. Its r 1 relaxivity has been tested on a 7 Tesla MR instrument and is comparable to that of the clinically available T 1 gadolinium-based contrast agent GBCA (1 vs 3 mM-1 s-1, respectively). A significant decrease in tumor T1 (15%) within 1 h of injection and complete signal recovery after 2 h were detected with a dose of 7 μg Fe/g mouse. The agent also has high r 2 relaxivity and can be used for T 2 contrast-enhanced MRI. Taken together, good relaxation and delivery properties and the presence of multiple surface reactive groups can facilitate its application as a universal MRI-compatible nanocarrier platform.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) based nanoplatforms have been considered as attractive and feasible candidates for cancer therapy. However, the activated endogenous antioxidant defense of cancer cells in response to the ROS attack greatly hinders their therapeutic efficacy. Although cancer-specific ROS amplification strategies have been widely explored, most of them suffer from tedious synthesis procedures and complex components, which will bring about undesired side effects and unsatisfactory results. Herein, we design a cancer-specific oxidative stress amplification nanomedicine (CA-Cu-PDA), which is simply fabricated through integrating the glutathione (GSH) responsive/depleting nanocarrier of copper-polydopamine (Cu-PDA) nanoparticles with a ROS-generating drug cinnamaldehyde (CA) via a facile one-pot polymerization route. It is verified that GSH could trigger the breakage of CA-Cu-PDA networks and the subsequent release of both copper ions and CA in cancer cells. The released copper ions efficiently oxidize GSH, thereby weakening the antioxidant system of cancer cells and increasing the ROS levels. On the other hand, extra ROS are generated by the reduced copper ions through a Fenton reaction, so that a synergistic ROS therapy with CA is achieved. Consequently, oxidative stress is specifically increased within cancer cells, leading to efficient cancer cell apoptosis, significant tumor suppression and minimized side effects. Such an ingenious structure realizes the interlocking cooperation and full utilization of each component's function, presenting promising perspectives for nanomedicine design.

Investigation of Gentamicin Release from Polydopamine Nanoparticles. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/app12136319] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA), being highly reactive in nature, has acquired great attention in multi-disciplinary fields. Owing to its fascinating properties, including its biocompatible, non-toxic and readily bio-degradative nature, we investigated the drug loading and release behavior, using an aminoglycoside antibiotic gentamicin (G) as a model drug. The gentamicin was loaded into the PDA nanoparticles (NPs) via an in situ polymerization method. The release kinetics of the gentamicin was then studied in pH 3, 5 and 7.4. Two batches with varied gentamicin loadings, G-PDA NPs 1:1 (with approx. 84.1% loaded gentamicin) and G-PDA NPs 0.6:1 (with approx. 72.7% loaded gentamicin), were studied. The drug release data were analyzed by LC–MS. The PDA showed good stability in terms of gentamicin release at alkaline pH over a period of seven days. The negative surface charge of PDA at pH 7.4 makes a strong bond with gentamicin, hence preventing its release from the PDA NPs. However, at pH 5 and 3, the amine groups of PDA are more prone towards protonation, making PDA positively charged, hence the repulsive forces caused the gentamicin to detach and release from the G-PDA NPs. Consequently, approx. 40% and 55% drug release were observed at pH 5 and 3, respectively, from the G-PDA NPs 1:1. However, the drug released from G-PDA NPs 0.6:1 was found to be one half as compared to the G-PDA NPs 1:1, which is obvious to the concentration gradient. These findings suggested that the in situ loading method for gentamicin could provide drug release over a period of seven days, hence defending the drug’s efficacy and safety challenges. Furthermore, two kinetic models, namely the Ritger–Peppas and Higuchi models, were implemented to determine the drug release kinetics. Curve fitting analysis supported our findings for the drug release kinetics which are followed by PDA structural changes in response to pH.

Abstract
In this feature article, we provide an overview of our research on statistical copolymers as a coating material for metal oxide nanoparticles and surfaces. These copolymers contain functional groups enabling noncovalent binding to oxide surfaces and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) polymers for colloidal stability and stealthiness. The functional groups are organic derivatives of phosphorous acid compounds R-H2PO3, also known as phosphonic acids that have been screened for their strong affinity to metals and for their multidentate binding ability. Herein we develop a polymer-based coating platform that shares features with the self-assembled monolayer (SAM) and layer-by-layer (L-b-L) deposition techniques. The milestones of this endeavor are the synthesis of PEG-based copolymers containing multiple phosphonic acid groups, the implementation of simple protocols combining versatility with high particle production yields, and the experimental evidence of the colloidal stability of the coated particles. As a demonstration, coating studies are conducted on cerium (CeO2), iron (γ-Fe2O3), aluminum (Al2O3), and titanium (TiO2) oxides of different sizes and morphologies. We finally discuss applications in the domain of nanomaterials and nanomedicine. We evaluate the beneficial effects of coatings on redispersible nanopowders, contrast agents for in vitro/vivo assays, and stimuli-responsive particles.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles and PDA-coated surfaces have wide applications due to PDA's unique reactivity and efficient coating ability on nearly any surface. However, challenges in manipulating and controlling dopamine polymerization and thus the PDA nanoparticle formations and surface coatings still exist. Here, dopamine with a tetraborate (borax)-protected catechol group was utilized to tune the properties of PDA nanoparticles and PDA coatings. This method allows us to (1) synthesize PDA nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution and low aggregation and (2) create surface coating with the desired PDA layer thickness and varying water contact angles. PDA nanoparticles and PDA-coated surfaces of varying but tunable chemical and physical properties will find wide applications. For example, such PDA-coated surfaces were successfully used to construct Ag nanoparticle patterned surfaces with varying Ag particle sizes and densities.

Abstract
Transmembrane MUC18 is highly expressed on most metastatic cancers. Herein, we demonstrate that targeting MUC18 with polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) and a mild photothermal effect can completely cease the migration of melanoma and breast cancer cells without killing the cells. The inhibited cell migration can be attributed to the altered actin cytoskeleton, cell stiffness, and cell morphology, as revealed by nanomechanical and super resolution fluorescence imaging techniques. Further mechanistic studies at the molecular level show that MUC18 targeted PDA NPs and a mild photothermal treatment produce a synergistic effect on the actin cytoskeleton by downregulating the transmembrane MUC18 and interrupting ezrin-radixin-moesin phosphorylation, thereby releasing the actin cytoskeleton from the cell membrane and compromising force transduction through the actin cytoskeleton to the transmembrane MUC18. Overall, the concept of targeting transmembrane metastatic markers and disrupting their downstream effectors (i.e., actin and actin-binding proteins) opens up a new avenue to cancer therapy.

Abstract
Hydrogels have been extensively used in many fields. Current synthesis of functional hydrogels requires incorporation of functional molecules either before or during gelation via the pre-organized reactive site along the polymer chains within hydrogels, which is tedious for polymer synthesis and not flexible for different types of hydrogels. Inspired by sandcastle worm, we develop a simple one-step strategy to functionalize wet hydrogels using molecules bearing an adhesive dibutylamine-DOPA-lysine-DOPA tripeptide. This tripeptide can be easily modified with various functional groups to initiate diverse types of polymerizations and provide functional polymers with a terminal adhesive tripeptide. Such functional molecules enable direct modification of wet hydrogels to acquire biological functions such as antimicrobial, cell adhesion and wound repair. The strategy has a tunable functionalization degree and a stable attachment of functional molecules, which provides a tool for direct and convenient modification of wet hydrogels to provide them with diverse functions and applications.

Abstract
The therapeutic potential of nanomaterials toward oxidative damage relevant diseases has attracted great attentions by offering promising advantages compared with conventional antioxidants. Although different kinds of nanoantioxidants have been well developed, the facile fabrication of robust and efficient nanoscavengers is still met with challenges like the use of toxic and high-cost subunits, the involvement of multistep synthetic process, and redundant purification work. Herein, a direct fabrication strategy toward polyphenol nanoparticles with tunable size, excellent biocompatibility, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging capacities from grape seed via an enzymatic polymerization method is reported. The resulting nanoparticles can efficiently prevent cell damage from ROS and exert promising in vivo antioxidant therapeutic effects on several oxidative stress-related diseases, including accelerating wound healing, inhibiting ulcerative colitis, and regulating the oxidative stress in dry eye disease. This study can stimulate the development of more kinds of low-cost, safe, and efficient biomass-based antioxidative nanomaterials via similar fabrication methodologies.

Abstract
Biofouling is a serious problem in the medical, marine, and all other industrial fields as it poses significant health risks and financial losses. Therefore, there is a great demand for endowing surfaces with antifouling properties to mitigate biofouling. Zwitterionic polymers (containing an equimolar number of homogeneously distributed anionic and cationic groups on the polymer chains) have been used extensively as one of the best antifouling materials for surface modification. Being a superhydrophilic polymer, zwitterionic polymers need a strong binding agent to continue to remain attached to the surface for long-term applications. The use of a mussel-inspired dopamine adhesive functional layer is one of the most widely exploited approaches for the attachment of a zwitterion layer on the surface via thiol and amine chemistry. Based on recent studies, we have categorized this dopamine and zwitterion conjugation into four different approaches: (1) conjugation of dopamine with zwitterions by direct modification of zwitterions with the dopamine functional moiety; (2) co-deposition of dopamine with zwitterionic polymers; (3) zwitterionic post modification of the polydopamine (PDA) coated surface; and (4) surface-initiated polymerization of zwitterionic polymers using dopamine modified initiators. In this review, we have briefly discussed about all the possible conjugation mechanisms and reactions for this promising dopamine and zwitterion conjugation and how this conjugated system significantly contributes to the development of non-fouling surfaces along with the other applications.

Abstract
The incidence rate of cardiovascular diseases is increasing year by year. The demand for coronary artery bypass grafting has been very large. Acellular blood vessels have potential clinical application because of their natural vascular basis, but their biocompatibility and anticoagulant energy need to be improved. We decellularized the abdominal aorta of SD rats, and then modified with bivalirudin via polydopamine. The mechanical properties, blood compatibility, cytocompatibility, immune response, and anticoagulant properties were evaluated, and then the bivalirudin-modified acellular blood vessels were implanted into rats for remodeling evaluation in vivo. The results we got show that the bivalirudin-modified acellular blood vessels showed good cytocompatibility and blood compatibility, and its anti-inflammatory trend was dominant in the immune response. After 3 months of transplantation, the bivalirudin-modified acellular blood vessels did not easily form thrombus. It was not easy to form calcification and could make the host cells grow better. Through vascular stimulation and immunofluorescence test, we found that vascular smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells proliferated well in the bivalirudin group. Bivalirudin-modified acellular blood vessels provided new idea for small diameter tissue engineering blood vessels, and may become a potential clinical substitute for small-diameter vascular grafts.

Abstract
Photoacoustic (PA) imaging holds great promise as a noninvasive imaging modality. Gold nanorods (GNRs) with absorption in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window have emerged as excellent PA probes because of their tunable optical absorption, surface modifiability, and low toxicity. However, pristine GNRs often undergo shape transition upon laser illumination due to thermodynamic instability, leading to a reduced PA signal after a few seconds of imaging. Here, we report monodisperse GNR-melanin nanohybrids where a tunable polydopamine (PDA) coating was conformally coated on GNRs. GNR@PDAs showed a threefold higher PA signal than pristine GNRs due to the increased optical absorption, cross-sectional area, and thermal confinement. More importantly, the PA signal of GNR@PDAs only decreased by 29% during the 5 min of laser illumination in the NIR-II window, while significant attenuation (77%) was observed for GNRs. The GNR@PDAs maintained 87% of its original PA signal in vivo even after 10 min of laser illumination. This PDA-enabled strategy affords a rational design for robust PA imaging probes and provides more opportunities for other types of photomediated biomedicines, such as photothermal and photodynamic regimens.

Abstract
Developing intelligent soft robots capable to perform various responses to different stimulations has been a hot topic in recent years. Liquid crystalline networks (LCNs) have been considered as one of the most promising candidates in the fabrication of soft actuators because of the combination of elasticity of the polymer and anisotropy of the liquid crystals. However, the design and fabrication of advanced LCN materials with outstanding performances and multiple responsivities is highly demanded but still a challenge. In this work, a NIR-UV dual light-responsive LCN actuator was prepared by selectively coating a polydopamine (PDA) layer on an azobenzene-doped LCN film. This actuator presents UV responsivity in the uncoated region because of the photochemical isomerization of azobenzene and NIR sensitivity in the PDA-coated region originated from the striking photothermal effect. Thanks to the reprogrammable PDA coating, this dual-responsive LCN actuator was totally reprogrammable by coating and washing the PDA layer repeatedly. Based on the novel soft actuator, an artificial car that can imitate the switch of the "forward gear" to "neutral gear" of a real car was prepared. In normal mode, the actuator can move forward under NIR irradiation. After UV light excitation, the actuator cannot move under the same NIR irradiation, just like the car with the level in neutral. This novel actuator may provide inspirations for the fabrication of light-driven functional devices and soft actuators.

Magnetite Nanoparticles and Spheres for Chemo- and Photothermal Therapy of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in vitro. Int J Nanomedicine 2020; 15:7923-7936.

Abstract
Introduction We present a multimodal nanoplatforms for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in vitro. The nanoplatforms are based on polydopamine (PDA)-coated magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) and spheres (sMAG) with PAMAM dendrimers and functionalized with NHS-PEG-Mal (N-hydroxysuccinimide–polyethylene glycol–maleimide) linker, which allows their functionalization with a folic acid derivative. The nanomaterials bearing a folic acid-targeting moiety show high efficiency in killing cancer cells in the dual chemo- and photothermal therapy (CT-PTT) of the liver cancer cells in comparison to modalities performed separately. Materials and Methods All materials are characterized in detail with transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, zeta potential and magnetic measurements. Also, photothermal properties were determined under irradiation of nanoparticles with laser beam of 2 W/cm2. The nontoxicity of nanoparticles with doxorubicin and without was checked by WST and LIVE/DEAD assay. Those tests were also used to evaluate materials bearing folic acid and anticancer drug in combined chemo- and photothermal therapy of HCC. Further, the generation of reactive oxygen species profile was also evaluated using flow cytometry test. Results Both NPs and sMAG showed high photothermal properties. Nevertheless, the higher photothermal response was found for magnetic spheres. Materials of concentration above 10 µg/mL reveal that their activity was comparable to free doxorubicin. It is worth highlighting that a functionalized magnetic sphere with DOXO more strongly affected the HepG2 cells than smaller functionalized nanoparticles with DOXO in the performed chemotherapy. This can be attributed to the larger size of particles and a different method of drug distribution. In the further stage, both materials were assessed in combined chemo- and photothermal therapy (CT-PTT) which revealed that magnetic spheres were also more effective in this modality than smaller nanoparticles. Conclusion Here, we present two types of nanomaterials (nanoparticles and spheres) based on polydopamine and PAMAM dendrimers g.5.0 functionalized with NHS-PEG-Mal linker terminated with folic acid for in vitro hepatocellular carcinoma treatment. The obtained materials can serve as efficient agents for dual chemo- and photothermal therapy of HCC. We also proved that PDA-coated magnetic spheres were more efficient in therapies based on near-infrared irradiation because determined cell viabilities for those materials are lower than for the same concentrations of nanomaterials based on small magnetic nanoparticles.

Abstract
For bone tissue engineering applications, scaffolds that mimic the porous structure of the extracellular matrix are highly desirable. Herein, we employ a PCL/HA-based scaffold with a double-scaled architecture of small pores coupled to larger ones. To improve the osteoinductivity of the scaffold, we incorporate two different growth factors via polydopamine (PDA) coating. As a first step, we identify the maximum amount of PDA that can be deposited onto the scaffold. Next, to allow for the deposition of a second PDA layer which, in turn, will allow to increase the loading of growth factors, we incorporate a dithiol connecting layer. The thiol groups covalently react with the first PDA coating through Michael addition while also allowing for the incorporation of a second PDA layer. We load the first and second PDA layers with bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), respectively, and evaluate the osteogenic potential of the functionalised scaffold by cell viability, alkaline phosphatase activity and the expression of three different osteogenesis-related genes of pre-seeded human mesenchymal stem cells. Through these studies, we demonstrate that the osteogenic activity of the scaffolds loaded with both BMP2 and VEGF is greater than scaffolds loaded only with BMP2. Importantly, the osteoinductivity is higher when the scaffolds are loaded with BMP2 and VEGF in two different PDA layers. Taken together, these results indicate that the as-prepared scaffolds could be a useful construct for bone-tissue applications.

Abstract
The devastating occurrence of drug resistance such as antimicrobial resistance has aroused global concerns for public health, which has propelled a continuous pursuit of safe and effective therapeutic agents. In this study, silver nanoparticles were decorated in mesoporous silica of SBA-15 coated with melanin-like polydopamine (PDA) as nanocarriers. Meanwhile, the constructed mesopore was loaded with phytochemical curcumin (CCM) through its noncovalent interactions with PDA coatings. The obtained CCM@SBA-15/PDA/Ag composites were characterized by physicochemical methods and exhibited desirable biocompatibility and low hemolytic activity. The dual-stimuli-responsive (pH and ROS) release of curcumin and/or silver nanoparticles from the CCM@SBA-15/PDA/Ag composites was achieved to reduce the side effects of noncontrolled drug leakage under physiological conditions. Additionally, compared with that of SBA-15/PDA/Ag and CCM@SBA-15/PDA, CCM@SBA-15/PDA/Ag combination showed a prolonged inhibitory effect on bacterial growth of G- E. coli (72 h) and G+ S. aureus (24 h), attributing to the enhanced effect of the bactericide of silver nanoparticles and curcumin. Furthermore, through the utilization of the nanoformulation of curcumin, improved chemotherapeutic efficiency against human cervical cancer cells (HeLa) and Taxol-resistant nonsmall cell lung cells (A549/TAX) was identified in comparison with that of free curcumin. Thus, our study rationalized the combinational design of the natural compound and silver nanoparticles as an integrated dual-responsive nanoplatform in dealing with infectious bacteria and drug resistance in cancers for enhanced therapy.

Abstract
The simultaneous therapy of tumors and bone defects resulting from tumor surgery is still a challenge in clinical orthopedics. Few nanomaterial systems simultaneously possess multifunctional capacities, including biodegradability, tumor treatment, and enhanced bone regeneration. Herein, we designed a biodegradable monodispersed bioactive glass nanoparticle (BGN) platform with multifunctional properties for enhanced colon cancer photothermo-chemotherapy and bone repair. The mussel-inspired surface assembly with BGN was established as a stable NIR-excited photothermal nanoplatform (BGN@PDA) for ablating tumors. BGN@PDA shows an ultrahigh anticancer drug (DOX) loading with on-demand (pH/NIR-responsive) drug release behavior and antibacterial activity for enhanced tumor chemotherapy (BGN@PDA-DOX). The growth of colon cancer cells (Hct116 cells) and cervical cancer cells (HeLa cells) was significantly inhibited in vitro, and superior local anticancer efficacy could be achieved by synergic chemo-photothermal therapy in vivo. BGN@PDA underwent a gradual degradation in vivo during 60 days and showed negligible toxic side effects. Meanwhile, BGN@PDA could positively induce the osteogenesis of osteoblasts in vitro and possess excellent in vivo bone repair ability in rat cranial defects. This work presents a distinctive strategy to design a bioactive multifunctional nanoplatform for treating tumor disease-resulted bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The adsorption of proteins is the initiating event in the processes occurring when blood contacts a "foreign" surface in a medical device, leading inevitably to thrombus formation. Knowledge of protein adsorption in this context has accumulated over many years but remains fragmentary and incomplete. Moreover, the significance and relevance of the information for blood compatibility are not entirely agreed upon in the biomaterials research community. In this review, protein adsorption from blood is discussed under the headings "agreed upon" and "not agreed upon or not known" with respect to: protein layer composition, effects on coagulation and complement activation, effects on platelet adhesion and activation, protein conformational change and denaturation, prevention of nonspecific protein adsorption, and controlling/tailoring the protein layer composition. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This paper is part 2 of a series of 4 reviews discussing the problem of biomaterial associated thrombogenicity. The objective was to highlight features of broad agreement and provide commentary on those aspects of the problem that were subject to dispute. We hope that future investigators will update these reviews as new scholarship resolves the uncertainties of today.

Abstract
Diverse biological processes in the body rely on the ability of cells to exert contractile forces on their extracellular matrix (ECM). In three-dimensional (3D) cell culture, however, this intrinsic cellular property can cause unregulated contraction of ECM hydrogel scaffolds, leading to a loss of surface anchorage and the resultant structural failure of in vitro tissue constructs. Despite advances in the 3D culture technology, this issue remains a significant challenge in the development and long-term maintenance of physiological 3D in vitro models. Here, we present a simple yet highly effective and accessible solution to this problem. We leveraged a single-step surface functionalization technique based on polydopamine to drastically increase the strength of adhesion between hydrogel scaffolds and cell culture substrates. Our method is compatible with different types of ECM and polymeric surfaces and also permits prolonged shelf storage of functionalized culture substrates. The proof-of-principle of this technique was demonstrated by the stable long-term (1 month) 3D culture of human lung fibroblasts. Furthermore, we showed the robustness and advanced application of the method by constructing a dynamic cell stretching system and performing over 100 000 cycles of mechanical loading on 3D multicellular constructs for visualization and quantitative analysis of stretch-induced tissue alignment. Finally, we demonstrated the potential of our technique for the development of microphysiological in vitro models by establishing microfluidic 3D co-culture of vascular endothelial cells and fibroblasts to engineer self-assembled, perfusable 3D microvascular beds.

Abstract
We demonstrate antifouling ultrafiltration membranes with retained selectivity and pure water flux through the controlled deposition of zwitterionic polymers and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). Molecules for polymerization were immobilized on the membrane's surface yet prevented from attaching to the membrane's pores due to a backflow of nitrogen (N2) gas achieved using an in-house constructed apparatus that we named the polymer prevention apparatus, or "PolyPrev". First, the operating parameters of the PolyPrev were optimized by investigating the polymerization of dopamine, which was selected due to its versatility in enabling further chemical reactions, published metrics for comparison, and its oxidative self-polymerization. Membrane characterization revealed that the polydopamine-modified membranes exhibited enhanced hydrophilicity; moreover, their size selectivity and pure water flux were statistically the same as those of the unmodified membranes. Because it is well documented that polydopamine coatings do not provide a long-lasting antifouling activity, poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (polyMPC, Mn = 30 kDa) and succinimidyl-carboxymethyl-ester-terminated PEG ( Mn = 40 kDa) were codeposited while dopamine was polymerizing to generate antifouling membranes. Statistically, the molecular-weight cutoff of the polyMPC- and PEG-functionalized membranes synthesized in the PolyPrev was equivalent to that of the unmodified membranes, and the pure water flux of the PEG membranes was equivalent to that of the unmodified membranes. Notably, membranes prepared in the PolyPrev with polyMPC and PEG decreased bovine serum albumin fouling and Escherichia coli attachment. This study demonstrates that by restricting antifouling chemistries from attaching within the pores of membranes, we can generate high-performance, antifouling membranes appropriate for a wide range of water treatment applications without compromising intrinsic transport properties.

Abstract
Robust, biocompatible, and facile coatings are promising for improving the in vivo performance of medical implants and devices. Here, we demonstrate the formation of nanothin silk coatings by leveraging the biomimetic self-assembly of eADF4(C16), an amphiphilic recombinant protein based on the Araneus diadematus dragline spidroin ADF4. These coatings result from concurrent adsorption and supramolecular assembly of eADF4(C16) induced by KH2PO4, thereby providing a mild one-pot coating strategy in which the coating rate can be controlled by protein and KH2PO4 concentration. The thickness of the coatings ranges from 2-30 nm depending on the time immersed in the aqueous coating solution. Coatings can be formed on hydrophobic and hydrophilic substrates regardless of surface chemistry and without requiring specialized surface activation. Moreover, coatings appear to be stable through vigorous rinsing and prolonged agitation in water. Grazing incidence wide angle X-ray scattering, single-molecule force spectroscopy, and Congo red staining techniques confirm the formation of β-sheet nanocrystals within the eADF4(C16) coating, which contributes to the cohesive and adhesive stability of the material. Coatings are exceptionally smooth in the dry state and are hydrophilic regardless of substrate hydrophobicity. Under aqueous conditions, nanothin silk coatings exhibit the properties of a hydrogel material.

Abstract
There is great interest in extending cellulosic platforms to applications in flexible, lightweight, low-cost and sustainable electronics. The critical need is the development of methods to confer electronic properties to these materials platforms (i.e., paper and fabrics). Here we report a highly conductive, pliable and foldable Cu/cellulose paper electrode enabled by a simple low-cost and scalable wet-processing method to coat a Cu nanoparticle (NP) layer on common cellulose paper, where polydopamine adhesion and electroless deposition were used to yield highly conductive paper with a sheet resistance as low as 0.01 Ω sq-1. This Cu/cellulose paper has excellent stability because of the strong adhesion between Cu NPs and cellulose, and because the methods are sufficiently mild to prevent damage to the paper substrate. This fabrication method results in the controlled deposition of Cu NPs and yields Cu/cellulose paper with highly hydrophobic and self-cleaning properties, high photothermal conversion efficiency, and excellent electromagnetic interface (EMI) shielding effectiveness. This high-performance Cu/cellulose paper could have promising application potential for a range of emerging applications in flexible electronics and packaging.

Abstract
The biomimetic coating polydopamine (PDA) has emerged as a promising coating material for various applications. However, the mechanism of PDA deposition onto surfaces is not fully understood, and the coating components of PDA and its relation to the putative intermediate 5,6-dihydroxyindole (DHI) are still controversial. This investigation discloses the deposition mechanisms of dopamine (DA)-based coatings and DHI-based coatings onto silicon surfaces by monitoring the nanoscale deposition of both coatings in situ using high-precision ellipsometry. We posit that the rapid and instantaneous nano-deposition of PDA coatings onto silicon surface in the initial stages critically involves the oxidation of DHI and/or its related oligomers. Our studies also show that the slow conversion of DA to DHI in PDA solution and the coupling between DA and DHI-derived precursors could be crucial for subsequent PDA coating growth. These findings elucidate the critical role of DHI, acting as an ‘initiator’ and a ‘cross linker’, in the PDA coating formation. Overall, our study provides important information on the early stage nano-deposition behavior in the construction of PDA coatings and DHI-based coatings. The underwater in situ nano-deposition studies of 5,6-dihydroxyindole (DHI) have provided new insights into the controversial deposition mechanism(s) of DHI-based and polydopamine-based coatings.![]()
