Abstract
Tumor therapy presents significant challenges, and conventional treatments exhibit limited therapeutic effectiveness. Imbalance of calcium homeostasis as a key cause of tumor cell death has been extensively studied in tumor therapy. Calcium overload therapy has garnered significant interest as a new cancer treatment strategy. This study involves the synthesis of a transformable nanosonosensitizer with a shell of a calcium ion nanomodulator. The nanosystem is designed to induce mitochondrial dysfunction by combining the calcium ion nanomodulator, nanosonosensitizer, and chemotherapeutic drug. Under ultrasound-activated conditions, CaCO3 dissolves in the tumor microenvironment, causing the nanosonosensitizer to switch from the "off" to the "on" state of ROS generation, exacerbating mitochondrial calcium overload. A two-dimensional Ti3C2/TiO2 heterostructure generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) under ultrasound and exhibits an efficient sonodynamic effect, enhancing calcium overload. Under ultrasound irradiation, Ti3C2/TiO2@CaCO3/KAE causes multilevel damage to mitochondria by combining the effects of rapid Ca2+ release, inhibiting Ca2+ efflux, enhancing tumor inhibition, and converting a "cold" tumor into a "hot" tumor. Therefore, this study proposes a method to effectively combine mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis and sonodynamic therapy (SDT) by the preparing pH-sensitive, double-activated, and multifunctional Ti3C2/TiO2-based nanosystems for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Low selectivity and tumor drug resistance are the main hinderances to conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy against tumor. Ion interference therapy is an innovative anti-tumor strategy that has been recently reported to induce metabolic disorders and inhibit proliferation of tumor cells by reordering bioactive ions within the tumor cells. Calcium cation (Ca2+) are indispensable for all physiological activities of cells. In particular, calcium overload, characterized by the abnormal intracellular Ca2+ accumulation, causes irreversible cell death. Consequently, calcium overload-based ion interference therapy has the potential to overcome resistance to traditional tumor treatment strategies and holds promise for clinical application. In this review, we 1) Summed up the current strategies employed in this therapy; 2) Described the outcome of tumor cell death resulting from this therapy; 3) Discussed its potential application in synergistic therapy with immunotherapy.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is a gynecologic malignancy with high mortality. The main reason is that it is detected at an advanced stage due to a lack of early diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, it is of great interest to develop a chemical tool that can visualize ovarian cancer cells in real-time and eliminate them. Unfortunately, probes that can simultaneously monitor both modes of action for the diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer have not been developed. Here, we designed a novel prodrug fluorescent probe (YW-OAc) that not only visually tracks cancer cells but also enables the on-demand delivery of chemotherapeutic agents. By β-Gal-mediated glycosidic bond hydrolysis, the fluorescent signal changed from blue to green (signal 1), enabling visual tracking of ovarian cancer cells. Subsequently, the identified cancer cells were subjected to precise light irradiation to induce anticancer drug release accompanied by a fluorescence transition from green to blue (signal 2), enabling real-time information on drug release. Thus, the prodrug fluorescent probe YW-OAc provides comprehensive two-step monitoring during cancer cell recognition and clearance. Notably, YW-OAc exhibited high affinity (Km = 3.74 μM), high selectivity, and low detection limit for β-Gal (0.0035 U/mL). We also demonstrated that YW-OAc can visually trace endogenous β-Gal in different cells and exhibit high phototoxicity in ovarian cancer cells. We hope that the prodrug fluorescent probe YW-OAc, can be used as an effective tool for biomedical diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a common outcome of epithelial ovarian carcinoma and is the leading cause of death for these patients. Tumor location, extent, peculiarities of the microenvironment, and the development of drug resistance are the main challenges that need to be addressed to improve therapeutic outcome. The development of new procedures such as HIPEC (Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy) and PIPAC (Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy) have enabled locoregional delivery of chemotherapeutics, while the increasingly efficient design and development of advanced drug delivery micro and nanosystems are helping to promote tumor targeting and penetration and to reduce the side effects associated with systemic chemotherapy administration. The possibility of combining drug-loaded carriers with delivery via HIPEC and PIPAC represents a powerful tool to improve treatment efficacy, and this possibility has recently begun to be explored. This review will discuss the latest advances in the treatment of PC derived from ovarian cancer, with a focus on the potential of PIPAC and nanoparticles in terms of their application to develop new therapeutic strategies and future prospects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mild-temperature photothermal therapy (mild PTT) is a safe and promising tumor therapeutic modality by alleviating the damage of healthy tissues around the tumor due to high temperature. However, its therapeutic efficiency is easily restricted by heat shock proteins (HSPs). Thus, exploitation of innovative approaches of inhibiting HSPs to enhance mild PTT efficiency is crucial for the clinical application of PTT. RESULTS Herein, an innovative strategy is reported: pyroptosis-boosted mild PTT based on a Mn-gallate nanoformulation. The nanoformulation was constructed via the coordination of gallic acid (GA) and Mn2+. It shows an acid-activated degradation and releases the Mn2+ and GA for up-regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial dysfunction and pyroptosis, which can result in cellular ATP deprivation via both the inhibiton of ATP generation and incresed ATP efflux. The reduction of ATP and accumulation of ROS provide a powerful approach for inhibiting the expression of HSPs, which enables the nanoformulation-mediated mild PTT. CONCLUSIONS Our in-vitro and in-vivo results demonstrate that this strategy of pyroptosis-assited PTT can achieve efficient mild PTT efficiency for osteosarcoma therapy.

Abstract
Natural biopolymers can be controllably in situ synthesized in organisms and play important roles in biological activities. Inspired by this, the manipulation of in situ biosynthesis of functional polymers in vivo will be an important way to obtain materials for meeting biological requirements. Herein, in situ biosynthesis of functional conjugated polymer at the tumor site was achieved via the utilization of specific tumor microenvironment (TME) characteristics for the first time. Specially, a water-soluble aniline dimer derivative (N-(3-sulfopropyl) p-aminodiphenylamine, SPA) was artfully in situ polymerized into polySPA (PSPA) nanoparticles at the tumor site, which was activated via the catalysis of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) overexpressed in TME to produce hydroxyl radical (•OH) by coinjected horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Benefiting from outstanding near-infrared (NIR)-II absorption of PSPA, the in situ polymerization process can be validly monitored by photoacoustic (PA) signal at the NIR-II region. Meanwhile, in situ polymerization would induce the size of polymeric materials from small to large, improving the distribution and retention of PSPA at the tumor site. On the combination of NIR-II absorption of PSPA and the size variation induced by polymerization, such polymerization can be applied for tumor-specific NIR-II light mediated PA image and photothermal inhibition of tumors, enhancing the precision and efficacy of tumor phototheranostics. Therefore, the present work opens the way to manipulate TME-activated in situ biosynthesis of functional conjugated polymer at the tumor site for overcoming formidable challenges in tumor theranostics.
