Abstract
Ultrasmall iron oxide nanoparticles (USIO NPs) are expected to become the next generation T1 contrast agents; however, their diagnostic and therapeutic potential for primary brain tumors (such as glioblastoma multiforme, GBM) is yet to be explored. At present, the main challenge is the effective hindering of biological barriers, including the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the blood-brain tumor barrier (BBTB). Herein, we aimed to investigate whether the USIO NPs, in combination with MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS), could intensify MR imaging of GBM. In this study, we presented zwitterionic USIO NPs for enhanced MR imaging of both xenografted and orthotopic GBM mouse models. We first synthesized citric-stabilized USIO NPs with a size of 3.19 ± 0.76 nm, modified with ethylenediamine, and decorated with 1,3-propanesultone (1,3-PS) to form USIO NPs-1,3-PS. The obtained USIO NPs-1,3-PS exhibited good cytocompatibility and cellular uptake efficiency. MRgFUS, in combination with microbubbles, provided a non-invasive and safe technique for BBB opening, which, in turn, promoted the delivery of USIO NPs-1,3-PS in orthotopic GBM. This developed USIO NP nanoplatform may improve the precision imaging of solid tumors and therapeutic efficacy in the central nervous system.

Abstract
Copper-based nanozymes exhibit excellent antitumor activity but are easily inactivated due to the disturbance of proteins or other macromolecules with sulfhydryl. A tumor microenvironment-responsive CuMnO@Fe3O4 (CMF) core-shell nanozyme for highly efficient tumor theranostics is developed. A platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β-recognizing cyclic peptide (PDGFB) target is conjugated to the surface of CMF to fabricate a tumor-specific nanozyme (PCMF). The core-shell nanostructure significantly avoids the oxidation and inactivation of copper-based nanozyme, promoting the antitumor activity of PCMF. The weak acid- and GSH-activated T1 and T2 relaxation rate of PCMF contributes to T1 and T2 dual contrast imaging at the tumor site. In addition, the PCMF disintegrates and produces some metal ions that possess Fenton catalytic activity (i.e., Cu+, Mn2+, and Fe2+) under TME. This process significantly depletes GSH, accelerates Fenton and Fenton-like reactions, enhances cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and induces cancer cell apoptosis and ferroptosis. PCMF also exhibits photothermal functions, so it can be used in combined photothermal therapy, ferroptosis therapy, and chemodynamic therapy, improving anticancer activity. This work provides insights into the design of an exquisite nanostructure for high-sensitive and tumor-specific theranostics.

Abstract
The most common chronic liver illness, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), refers to a range of abnormalities of the liver with varying degrees of steatosis. When the clinical symptoms including liver damage, inflammation, and fibrosis, are added to the initial steatosis, NAFLD becomes non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), the problematic and severe stage. The diagnosis of NASH at the right time could therefore effectively prevent deterioration of the disease. Considering that platelets (PLTs) could migrate to the sites of inflamed liver sinusoids with oxidative stress during the development of NASH, we purified the PLTs from fresh blood and engineered their surface with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) responsive fluorescent probe (5-DP) through lipid fusion. The engineered PLT-DPs were recruited and trapped in the inflammation foci of the liver with NASH through interaction with the extracellular matrix, including hyaluronan and Kupffer cells. Additionally, the fluorescence of 5-DP on the surface of PLT-DP was significantly enhanced upon reacting with the elevated level of H2O2 in the NASH liver. Thus, PLT-DP has great promise for NASH fluorescence imaging with high selectivity and sensitivity.

Abstract
Personalized radiotherapy strategies enabled by the construction of hypoxia-guided biological target volumes (BTVs) can overcome hypoxia-induced radioresistance by delivering high-dose radiotherapy to targeted hypoxic areas of the tumor. However, the construction of hypoxia-guided BTVs is difficult owing to lack of precise visualization of hypoxic areas. This study synthesizes a hypoxia-responsive T1 , T2 , T2 mapping tri-modal MRI molecular nanoprobe (SPION@ND) and provides precise imaging of hypoxic tumor areas by utilizing the advantageous features of tri-modal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). SPION@ND exhibits hypoxia-triggered dispersion-aggregation structural transformation. Dispersed SPION@ND can be used for routine clinical BTV construction using T1 -contrast MRI. Conversely, aggregated SPION@ND can be used for tumor hypoxia imaging assessment using T2 -contrast MRI. Moreover, by introducing T2 mapping, this work designs a novel method (adjustable threshold-based hypoxia assessment) for the precise assessment of tumor hypoxia confidence area and hypoxia level. Eventually this work successfully obtains hypoxia tumor target and accurates hypoxia tumor target, and achieves a one-stop hypoxia-guided BTV construction. Compared to the positron emission tomography-based hypoxia assessment, SPION@ND provides a new method that allows safe and convenient imaging of hypoxic tumor areas in clinical settings.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) exhibits increased lipid enrichment in hepatocytes. The spectrum of this disease includes stages such as nonalcoholic simple fatty liver (NAFL), nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and liver fibrosis. Changes in lifestyle behaviors have been a major factor contributing to the increased cases of NAFLD patients globally. Therefore, it is imperative to explore the pathogenesis of NAFLD, identify therapeutic targets, and develop new strategies to improve the clinical management of the disease. Immunoregulation is a strategy through which the organism recognizes and eliminates antigenic foreign bodies to maintain physiological homeostasis. In this process, multiple factors, including immune cells, signaling molecules, and cytokines, play a role in governing the evolution of NAFLD. This review seeks to encapsulate the advancements in research regarding immune regulation in NAFLD, spanning from underlying mechanisms to practical applications.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is the critical stage in the development of chronic liver disease (CLD), from simple injury to irreversible cirrhosis. Timely detection and intervention of liver fibrosis are crucial for preventing CLD from progressing into a fatal condition. Herein, we developed iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (IONPs) and ferulic acid (FA) coencapsulated poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs), followed by surface modification with cRGD peptides (cRGD-PLGA/IOFA) for integrin-targeted clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-traceable treatment of liver fibrosis. The cRGD peptide linked on the surface of the PLGA/IOFA NPs could specifically bind to the overexpressed integrin αvβ3 on activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in the fibrotic liver, enabling the high-sensitive clinical MR imaging (3 T) and precise staging of liver fibrosis. The FA encapsulated in cRGD-PLGA/IOFA showed excellent efficacy in reducing oxidative stress and inhibiting the activation of HSCs through the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/Smad pathway. Notably, the IONPs encapsulated in cRGD-PLGA/IOFA NPs could alleviate liver fibrosis by regulating hepatic macrophages through the NF-κB pathway, lowering the proportion of Ly6Chigh/CD86+, and degrading collagen fibers. The FA and IONPs in the cRGD-PLGA/IOFA produced a synergistic enhancement effect on collagen degradation, which was more effective than the IONPs treatment alone. This study demonstrates that cRGD-PLGA/IOFA NPs could effectively relieve liver fibrosis by acting on macrophages and HSCs and provide a new strategy for the clinical MRI-traceable treatment of liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has gradually become one of the major liver health problems in the world. The dynamic course of the disease goes through steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis, and carcinoma. Before progressing to carcinoma, timely and effective intervention will make the condition better, which highlights the importance of early diagnosis. With the further study of the biological mechanism in the pathogenesis and progression of NAFLD, some potential biomarkers have been discovered, and the possibility of their clinical application is gradually being discussed. At the same time, the progress of imaging technology and the emergence of new materials and methods also provide more possibilities for the diagnosis of NAFLD. This article reviews the diagnostic markers and advanced diagnostic methods of NAFLD in recent years.
