Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely studied for biomedical applications due to their excellent properties, such as good biocompatibility, degradability, interlayer ion exchangeability, high loading capacity, pH-responsive release, and large specific surface area. Furthermore, the flexibility in the structural composition and ease of surface modification of LDHs makes it possible to develop specifically functionalized LDHs to meet the needs of different applications. In this review, the recent advances of LDHs for biomedical applications, which include LDH-based drug delivery systems, LDHs for cancer diagnosis and therapy, tissue engineering, coatings, functional membranes, and biosensors, are comprehensively discussed. From these various biomedical research fields, it can be seen that there is great potential and possibility for the use of LDHs in biomedical applications. However, at the same time, it must be recognized that the actual clinical translation of LDHs is still very limited. Therefore, the current limitations of related research on LDHs are discussed by combining limited examples of actual clinical translation with requirements for clinical translation of biomaterials. Finally, an outlook on future research related to LDHs is provided.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Increasing evidence indicated circRNAs were involved in stem cells osteogenesis differentiation. Herein, we aimed to clarify the role of hsa-circ-0107593 during the osteogenesis process of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS The ring structure of hsa-circ-0107593 was confirmed using RNase R treatment and Sanger sequencing. Nucleoplasmic separation and fluorescence in situ hybridization detected hsa-circ-0107593 distribution. Lentivirus and siRNA were used to modulate the expression of hsa-circ-0107593, and the binding relationship between hsa-circ-0107593 and miR-20a-5p was verified by luciferase assay and RNA immunoprecipitation. We detected the osteogenic activity of hADSCs through alkaline phosphatase staining, alizarin red S staining, real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), western blot, and cellular immunofluorescence experiment. In vivo, micro-computed tomography was performed to analyze bone formation around skull defect. RESULTS RT-PCR results exhibited that hsa-circ-0107593 was downregulated while miR-20a-5p was upregulated during hADSCs osteogenesis. In vivo and in vitro experiments results indicated that knocking down hsa-circ-0107593 promoted the osteogenic differentiation of hADSCs, while overexpression of hsa-circ-0107593 showed an inhibitory effect on hADSCs osteogenic differentiation. In vitro experiment results showed hsa-circ-0107593 acted as a hADSCs osteogenic differentiation negative factor for it inhibited the suppressing effect of miR-20a-5p on SMAD6. CONCLUSION Knocking down hsa-circ-0107593 acts as a positive factor of the osteogenic differentiation of hADSCs via miR-20a-5p/SMAD6 signaling.

Abstract
Bone diseases including bone defects, bone infections, osteoarthritis, and bone tumors seriously affect life quality of the patient and bring serious economic burdens to social health management, for which the current clinical treatments bear dissatisfactory therapeutic effects. Biomaterial-based strategies have been widely applied in the treatment of orthopedic diseases but are still plagued by deficient bioreactivity. With the development of nanotechnology, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with adjustable metal ion composition and alterable interlayer structure possessing charming physicochemical characteristics, versatile bioactive properties, and excellent drug loading and delivery capabilities arise widespread attention and have achieved considerable achievements for bone disease treatment in the last decade. However, to the authors' best knowledge, no review has comprehensively summarized the advances of LDHs in treating bone disease so far. Herein, the advantages of LDHs for orthopedic disorders treatment are outlined and the corresponding state-of-the-art achievements are summarized for the first time. The potential of LDHs-based nanocomposites for extended therapeutics for bone diseases is highlighted and perspectives for LDHs-based scaffold design are proposed for facilitated clinical translation.

Abstract
Chronic low back pain and dyskinesia caused by intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) are seriously aggravated and become more prevalent with age. Current clinical treatments do not restore the biological structure and inherent function of the disc. The emergence of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine has provided new insights into the treatment of IDD. We synthesized biocompatible layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles and optimized their ion elemental compositions to promote chondrogenic differentiation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs). The chondrogenic differentiation of LDH-treated MSCs was validated using Alcian blue staining, qPCR, and immunofluorescence analyses. LDH-pretreated hUC-MSCs were differentiated prior to transplantation into the degenerative site of a needle puncture IDD rat model. Repair and regeneration evaluated using X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, and tissue immunostaining 4–12 weeks after transplantation showed recovery of the disc space height and integrated tissue structure. Transcriptome sequencing revealed significant regulatory roles of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and integrin receptors of focal adhesion signaling pathway in enhancing chondrogenic differentiation and thus prompting tissue regeneration. The construction of ion-specific LDH nanomaterials for in situ intervertebral disc regeneration through the focal adhesion signaling pathway provides theoretical basis for clinical transformation in IDD treatment. LDH nanoparticles with different elemental compositions are constructed to optimize the chondrogenic differentiation of hUC-MSCs. Optimized-LDH pretreated hUC-MSCs transplantation show recovery of disc space height and integrated tissue structure. ECM and focal adhesion signaling pathway play significant roles in LDH-promoted cell differentiation and tissue regeneration. Ion-specific optimizing LDH provides theoretical basis for clinical transformation on IDD treatment.

Abstract
The committed differentiation of stem cells into neurons is a promising therapeutic strategy for neurological diseases. Predifferentiation of transplanted stem cells into neural precursors could enhance their utilization and control the direction of differentiation. Embryonic stem cells with totipotency can differentiate into specific nerve cells under appropriate external induction conditions. Layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles have been proven to regulate the pluripotency of mouse ESCs (mESCs), and LDH could be used as carrier in neural stem cells for nerve regeneration. Hence, we sought to study the effects of LDH without loaded factors on mESCs neurogenesis in this work. A series of characteristics analyses indicated the successful construction of LDH nanoparticles. LDH nanoparticles that may adhere to the cell membranes had insignificant effect on cell proliferation and apoptosis. The enhanced differentiation of mESCs into motor neurons by LDH was systematically validated by immunofluorescent staining, quantitative real-time PCR analysis and western blot analysis. In addition, transcriptome sequencing analysis and mechanism verification elucidated the significant regulatory roles of focal adhesion signaling pathway in the enhanced mESCs neurogenesis by LDH. Taken together, the functional validation of inorganic LDH nanoparticles promoting motor neurons differentiation provide a novel strategy and therapeutic prospect for the clinical transition of neural regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The discovery of a potent photosensitizer with desirable immunogenic cell death (ICD) ability can prominently enhance antitumor immunity in photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, majority of commercially-available photosensitizers suffer from serious aggregation and fail to elicit sufficient ICD. Pyroptosis as a newly identified pattern for potent ICD generation is rarely disclosed in reported photosensitizers. In addition, the photosensitizer with excellent mitochondria-anchored ability evokes prominent mitochondria oxidative stress, and consequently induces ICD. RESULTS Herein, a novel supramolecular photosensitizer LDH@ZnPc is reported, without complicated preparation, but reveals desirable pyroptosis-triggered ability with mitochondria anchoring feature. LDH@ZnPc is obtained through isolation of ZnPc using positive charged layered double hydroxides (LDH), and excellent mitochondria-anchored ability is achieved. More importantly, LDH@ZnPc-mediated PDT can effectively initiate gasdermin D (GSDMD)-dependent pyroptosis of tumor cells. In vitro and in vivo results verify robust ICD ability and potent tumor inhibition efficacy, and antitumor immunity towards distant tumor inhibition. CONCLUSIONS This study reveals that LDH@ZnPc can act as an excellent pyroptosis inducer with simultaneous mitochondria anchoring ability for enhancing photodynamic therapy and boosting antitumor immunity.

Abstract
As anion-exchange materials, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have attracted increasing attention in the fields of selective adsorption and separation, controlled drug release, and environmental remediation. The metal cation composition of the laminate is the essential factor that determines the anion-exchange performance of LDHs. Herein, we review the regulating effects of the metal cation composition on the anion-exchange properties and LDH structure. Specifically, the internal factors affecting the anion-exchange performance of LDHs were analyzed and summarized. These include the intercalation driving force, interlayer domain environment, and LDH morphology, which significantly affect the anion selectivity, anion-exchange capacity, and anion arrangement. By changing the species, valence state, size, and mole ratio of the metal cations, the structural characteristics, charge density, and interlayer spacing of LDHs can be adjusted, which affect the anion-exchange performance of LDHs. The present challenges and future prospects of LDHs are also discussed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first review to summarize the essential relationship between the metal ion composition and anion-exchange performance of laminates, providing important insights for regulating the anion-exchange performance of LDHs.

Abstract
The field of nanomedicine-catalyzed tumor therapy has achieved a lot of progress; however, overcoming the limitations of the tumor microenvironment (TME) to achieve the desired therapeutic effect remains a major challenge. In this study, a nanocomposite hydrogel (GH@LDO) platform combining the nanozyme CoMnFe-layered double oxides (CoMnFe-LDO) and natural enzyme glucose oxidase (GOX) was engineered to remodel the TME to enhance tumor catalytic therapy. The CoMnFe-LDO is a nanozyme that can convert endogenous H2O2 into reactive oxygen species (ROS) and O2 to achieve chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and alleviate the hypoxic microenvironment. Meanwhile, GOX can catalyze the conversion of glucose and O2 to gluconic acid and H2O2, which not only represses the ATP production of tumor cells to achieve starvation therapy (ST), but also decreases the pH value of TME and supplies extra H2O2 to enhance the CDT effect. Furthermore, this well-designed CoMnFe-LDO possessed a high photothermal conversion efficiency (66.63%), which could promote the generation of ROS to enhance the CDT effect and achieve photothermal therapy (PTT) under near-infrared light irradiation. The GH@LDO hydrogel cascade reaction overcomes the limitation of the TME and achieves satisfactory CDT/ST/PTT synergetic effects in vitro and in vivo. This work provides a new strategy for remodeling the TME using nanomedicine to achieve precise tumor cascaded catalytic therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: At present, the focus of tumor therapy has begun to shift from monotherapy to combination therapy for improving the overall therapeutic effect. In this study, we synthesized a CoMnFe-layered double oxide (CoMnFe-LDO) nanozyme composed of multiple transition metal oxides, which demonstrated improved peroxidase and oxidase activities as well as favorable photothermal conversion capability. The CoMnFe-LDO nanozyme was compounded with an injectable GH hydrogel crosslinked by glucose oxidase (GOX) and peroxidase (HRP). This nanocomposite hydrogel overcame the limitations of weak acidity, H2O2, and O2 levels in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and achieved synergetic chemodynamic therapy (CDT), starvation therapy (ST), and photothermal therapy (PTT) effects based on the cascaded catalytic actions of CoMnFe-LDO and GOX to H2O2 and glucose.

Abstract
Recent decades have witnessed a surge of explorations into the application of multifarious materials, especially biomedical applications. Among them, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely developed as typical inorganic layer materials to achieve remarkable advancements. Multiple physicochemical properties endow LDHs with excellent merits in biomedical applications. Moreover, LDH nanoplatforms could serve as "molecular switches", which are capable of the controlled release of payloads under specific physiological pH conditions but are stable during circulation in the bloodstream. In addition, LDHs themselves are composed of several specific cations and possess favorable biological effects or regulatory roles in various cellular functions. These advantages have caused LDHs to become increasingly of interest in the area of nanomedicine. Recent efforts have been devoted to revealing the potential factors that interfere with the biological pathways of LDH-based nanoparticles, such as their applications in shaping the functions of immune cells and in determining the fate of stem cells and tumor treatments, which are comprehensively described herein. In addition, several intracellular signaling pathways interfering with by LDHs in the above applications were also systematically expatiated. Finally, the future development and challenges of LDH-based nanomedicine are discussed in the context of the ultimate goal of practical clinical application.

Abstract
Despite the exceptional physicochemical and morphological characteristics, the pristine layered double hydroxides (LDHs), or two-dimensional (2D) hydrotalcite clays, often suffer from various shortcomings in biomedicine, such as deprived thermal and chemical stabilities, acid-prone degradation, as well as lack of targeting ability, hampering their scale-up and subsequent clinical translation. Accordingly, diverse nanocomposites of LDHs have been fabricated by surface coating of organic species, impregnation of inorganic species, and generation of core-shell architectures, resulting in the complex state-of-the-art architectures. In this article, we initially emphasize various bothering limitations and the chemistry of these pristine LDHs, followed by discussions on the engineering strategies of different LDHs-based nanocomposites. Further, we give a detailed note on diverse LDH nanocomposites and their performance efficacy in various biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, bioimaging, biosensing, tissue engineering and cell patterning, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) extraction, as well as photoluminescence, highlighting the influence of various properties of installed supramolecular assemblies on their performance efficacy. In summary, we conclude with interesting perspectives concerning the lessons learned to date and the strategies to be followed to further advance their scale-up processing and applicability in medicine.

Abstract
Biomaterials have provided promising strategies towards improving the functions of injured tissues of the nervous system. Recently, 2D nanomaterials, such as graphene, layered double hydroxides (LDHs), and black phosphorous, which are characterized by ultrathin film structures, have attracted much attention in the fields of neural repair and regeneration. 2D nanomaterials have extraordinary physicochemical properties and excellent biological activities, such as a large surface-area-to-thickness ratio, high levels of adhesion, and adjustable flexibility. In addition, they can be designed to have superior biocompatibility and electrical or nano-carrier properties. To date, many 2D nanomaterials have been used for synaptic modulation, neuroinflammatory reduction, stem cell fate regulation, and injured neural cell/tissue repair. In this review, we discuss the advances in 2D nanomaterial technology towards novel neurological applications and the mechanisms underlying their unique features. In addition, the future outlook of functional 2D nanomaterials towards addressing the difficult issues of neuropathy has been explored to introduce a promising strategy towards repairing and regenerating the injured nervous system.

Further, we investigated the cellular uptake of nanoparticles in rat bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells, the significant enhanced endocytosis was occurred in LDH-GQD treated groups. The enhanced osteogenic differentiation abilities of LDH-GQD were systematically investigated through alkaline phosphatase staining, alizarin red staining and qPCR analysis. In addition, the anti-inflammatory regulation of LDH facilitated the phenotypic transition of macrophage in LDH-GQD nanocomposites. Overall, the successful construction and functional validation of nanomaterials in this study will provide clinical therapeutic potential in bone defects regeneration.

Abstract
In this work, a novel layered double hydroxide (LDH)-based multifunctional nanoplatform was built for synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT)/chemotherapy. The platform was modified using the peptide B3int to target cancer cells with overexpression of integrin αvβ3. Indocyanine green (ICG) and doxorubicin (DOX) were loaded into the nanocarrier (LDH-PEG-B3int NPs) to form a system having a high drug loading (18.62%) and a remarkable photothermal conversion efficiency of 25.38%. It also showed pH-responsive and near-infrared (NIR)-triggered DOX release. In vitro and in vivo studies indicated that the anti-tumor activity of the combined delivery system was significantly higher than that of a single delivery system. This co-delivery nanosystem may be helpful for future application in the clinical treatment of cancer.

Abstract
Inefficient differentiation and poor engraftment hinder the clinical applications of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based cell therapies in regenerative medicine. Layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles are sheet-like materials with desirable biocompatibility and anion-exchange properties and have been widely applied as drug and nucleotide carriers in the field of tissue repair. However, few studies have focused on the biological effects of LDH itself. In this study, we demonstrated the novel function of LDH in stimulating osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs). The expression of osteogenic-related genes, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and calcium deposits were significantly increased after LDH treatment. Mechanistic analysis performed with RNA sequencing revealed that LDH promoted osteogenesis by targeting the LGR5/β-catenin axis. LDH also inactivated IKK/NF-κB signaling under LPS-triggered inflamed conditions, suggesting the dual benefits of LDH in enhancing bone regeneration and alleviating the inflammatory response. Furthermore, we utilized LDH as the transport vehicle of the osteoinductive miRNA let-7d to synergistically regulate BMSCs toward the osteoblastic lineage. The LDH/let-7d complex resulted in a better induction of osteogenesis than LDH alone. For cell transplantation, BMSCs were seeded in LDH/let-7d-incorporated fibrin scaffolds, which proved enhanced osteoinduction capability in the subcutaneous ectopic osteogenesis model in nude mice. Taken together, this study provides a novel strategy for effective and synergistic improvement of osteogenesis via LDH-mediated delivery of miRNA let-7d, thus shedding light on the future application of LDH in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemotherapy is a strategy that is currently used to improve the therapeutic efficacy of traditional chemotherapy while mitigating side effects. Heptaplatin, a platinum chemotherapeutic antitumor drug in colorectal tumors, is traditionally used in the clinic. However, its side effects and low efficiency in killing tumors remain unresolved. Herein, a facile supramolecular chemotherapy platform on account of the host-guest chemistry between cucurbit[7]uril and the commercially available heptaplatin was studied. At pH 7.4, heptaplatin showed a strong binding to the cucurbit[7]uril nanocarrier by 1H NMR, whose Ka was (1.38 ± 0.06) × 106 M-1 by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). At pH 6.0 in a tumor microenvironment, overexpressed spermine can exchange competitively heptaplatin from heptaplatin-CB[7]. This supramolecular complex achieved higher antitumor activity on colorectal tumor cells and lower cytotoxicity than the drug alone on colorectal normal cells. Furthermore, the antitumor mechanisms of supramolecular complex were investigated by apoptosis, cell cycle, and spermine synthase. It was found that heptaplatin-CB[7] consumed more colorectal tumorous intracellular spermine by the spermine synthase assay (413.85 ± 0.004 pg/mL); hepataplatin-CB[7] caused early apoptosis (87.73%) of colorectal tumor cells; heptaplatin-CB[7] induced an inhibitory response in the G1 phase of the tumor cell cycle. These findings demonstrated that heptaplatin-CB[7] had higher antitumor activity toward human colorectal tumor cells but lower cytotoxicity toward human colorectal normal cells. It is expected to promote the supramolecular chemotherapy and translational development of the nanocomplex into the clinical field.

Abstract
Immune microenvironment amelioration and reconstruction by functional biomaterials has become a promising strategy for spinal cord injury (SCI) recovery. In this study, we evaluated the neural regeneration and immunoregulation functions of Mg/Al layered double hydroxide (Mg/Al-LDH) nanoparticles in completely transected and excised mice and revealed the immune-related mechanisms. LDH achieved significant performance in accelerating neural stem cells (NSCs) migration, neural differentiation, L-Ca2+ channel activation, and inducible action potential generation. In vivo, the behavioral and electrophysiological performance of SCI mice was significantly improved by LDH implantation, with BrdU+ endogenous NSCs and neurons clearly observed in the lesion sites. According to RNA-seq and ingenuity pathway analysis, transforming growth factor-β receptor 2 (TGFBR2) is the key gene through which LDH inhibits inflammatory responses and accelerates neural regeneration. Significant colocalization of TGFBR2 and LDH was found on the cell membranes of NSCs both in vitro and in vivo, and LDH increased the expression of TGF-β2 in NSCs and activated the proliferation of precursor neural cells. LDH decreased the expression of M1 markers and increased the expression of M2 markers in both microglia and bone marrow-derived macrophages, and these effects were reversed by a TGFBR2 inhibitor. In addition, as a carrier, LDH loaded with NT3 exhibited better recovery effects with regard to the basso mouse scale score, motor evoked potential performance, and regenerated neural cell numbers than LDH itself. Thus, we have developed Mg/Al-LDH that can be used to construct a suitable immune microenvironment for SCI recovery and have revealed the targeted receptor.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs), also known as anionic clays or hydrotalcite-like compounds, are a class of nanomaterials that attained great attention as a carrier for drug delivery applications. The lamellar structure of this compound exhibits a high surface-to-volume ratio which enables the intercalation of therapeutic agents and releases them at the target site, thereby reducing the adverse effect. Moreover, the intercalated drug can be released in a sustained manner, and hence the frequency of drug administration can be decreased. The co-precipitation, ion exchange, manual grinding, and sol-gel methods are the most employed for their synthesis. The unique properties like the ease of synthesis, low cost, high biocompatibility, and low toxicity render them suitable for biomedical applications. This review presents the advances in the structure, properties, method of preparation, types, functionalization, and drug delivery applications of LDH. Also, this review provides various new conceptual insights that can form the basis for new research questions related to the drug delivery applications of LDH.
