Abstract
A multifunctional nanoplatform was constructed in this work, with the goal of ameliorating the challenges faced with traditional cancer chemotherapy. Cisplatin (CP) was loaded into mesoporous polydopamine (mPDA) nanoparticles (NPs) with a drug loading of 15.8 ± 0.1 %, and MnO2 used as pore sealing agent. Finally, the NPs were wrapped with platelet membrane (PLTM). P-selectin on the PLTM can bind to CD44, which is highly expressed on the tumor cell membrane, so as to improve the targeting performance of the NPs. In addition, the CD47 on the PLTM can prevent the NPs from being phagocytosed by macrophages, which is conducive to immune escape. The final PLTM-CP@mPDA/MnO2 NPs were found to have a particle size of approximately 198 nm. MnO2 is degraded into Mn2+ in the tumor microenvironment, leading to CP release from the pores in the mPDA. CP both acts as a chemotherapy agent and can also increase the concentration of H2O2 in cells. Mn2+ can catalyze the conversion of H2O2 to OH, resulting in oxidative damage and chemodynamic therapy. In addition, Mn2+ can be used as a contrast agent in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In vitro and in vivo experiments were performed to explore the therapeutic effect of the NPs. When the concentration of CP is 30 μg/mL, the NPs cause approximately 50 % cell death. It was found that the PLTM-CP@mPDA/MnO2 NPs are targeted to cancerous cells, and in the tumor site cause extensive apoptosis. Tumor growth is thereby repressed. No negative off-target side effects were noted. MRI could be used to confirm the presence of the NPs in the tumor site. Overall, the nano-platform developed here provides cooperative chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy, and can potentially be used for effective cancer treatment which could be monitored by MRI.

Abstract
Ultra-high-field (UHF) MRI has shown great advantages over low-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Despite being the most commonly used MRI contrast agents, gadolinium chelates perform poorly in high magnetic fields, which significantly weakens their T1 intensity. In comparison, the rare element Holmium (Ho)-based nanoparticles (NPs) have demonstrated great potential as T2-weighted MRI contrast agents in UHF MRI due to their extremely short electron relaxation times (∼ 10-13s). In this study, a multifunctional nanotherapeutic probe was designed for UHF MRI-guided chemotherapy and photothermal therapy. The Ho (III)-doped mesoporous polydopamine (Ho-MPDA, HM) nanosphere was loaded with the chemotherapeutic drug mitoxantrone (MTO) and then coated with 4T1 cell membranes to enhance active targeting delivery to breast cancer. The prepared nanotherapeutic probe MTO@HMM@4T1 (HMM@T) exhibited good biocompatibility, high drug-loading capability and great potential as Ho (III)-based UHF MRI contrast agents. Moreover, the biodegradation of HMM@T in response to the intratumor pH and glutathione (GSH) promotes MTO release. Near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation of HM induced photothermal therapy and further enhanced drug release. Consequently, HMM@T effectively acted as an MRI-guided tumor-targeting chemo-photothermal therapy against 4T1 breast cancer. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Ultra-high-field (UHF) MRI has shown great advantages over low-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Although gadolinium chelates are the most commonly used MRI contrast agents in clinical practice, they exhibit a significantly decreased T1 relaxivity at UHF. Holmium exhibits outstanding UHF magnetic resonance capabilities in comparison with gadolinium chelates currently used in clinic. Herein, a theranostic nanodrug (HMM@T) was designed for UHF MRI-guided chemo-photothermal therapy. The nanodrug possessed remarkable UHF T2 MRI properties (r2 = 152.13 mM-1s-1) and high drug loading capability of 18.4 %. The biodegradation of HMM@T NPs under triple stimulations of pH, GSH, and NIR led to an efficient release of MTO in tumor microenvironment. Our results revealed the potential of a novel UHF MRI-guided multifunctional nanosystem in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Recently, mesoporous nanomaterials with widespread applications have attracted great interest in the field of drug delivery due to their unique structure and good physiochemical properties. As a biomimetic nanomaterial, mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) possesses both a superior nature and good compatibility, endowing it with good clinical transformation prospects compared with other inorganic mesoporous nanocarriers. However, the subacute toxicity and underlying mechanisms of biomimetic mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles remain uncertain. Herein, we prepared MPDAs by a soft template method and evaluated their primary physiochemical properties and metabolite toxicity, as well as potential mechanisms. The results demonstrated that MPDA injection at low (3.61 mg/kg) and medium doses (10.87 mg/kg) did not significantly change the body weight, organ index or routine blood parameters. In contrast, high-dose MPDA injection (78.57 mg/kg) is associated with disturbances in the gut microbiota, activation of inflammatory pathways through the abnormal metabolism of bile acids and unsaturated fatty acids, and potential oxidative stress injury. In sum, the MPDA dose applied should be controlled during the treatment. This study first provides a systematic evaluation of metabolite toxicity and related mechanisms for MPDA-based nanoparticles, filling the gap between their research and clinical transformation as a drug delivery nanoplatform.

Abstract
In the treatment of spinal cord injury (SCI), the complex process of secondary injury is mainly responsible for preventing SCI repair or even exacerbating the injury. In this experiment, we constructed the 8-gingerol (8G)-loaded mesoporous polydopamine (M-PDA), M@8G, as the in vivo targeting nano-delivery platform, and investigated the therapeutic effects of M@8G in secondary SCI and its related mechanisms. The results indicated that M@8G could penetrate the blood-spinal cord barrier to enrich the spinal cord injury site. Mechanism research has shown that all of the M-PDA,8G and M@8G displayed the anti-lipid peroxidation effect, and then M@8G can inhibit the secondary SCI by suppressing the ferroptosis and inflammation. In vivo assays showed that M@8G significantly diminished the local injury area, reduced axonal and myelin loss, thus improving the neurological and motor recovery in rats. Based on the analysis of cerebrospinal fluid samples from patients, ferroptosis occurred locally in SCI and continued to progress in patients during the acute phase of SCI as well as the stage after their clinical surgery. This study showcases effective treatment of SCI through the aggregation and synergistic effect of M@8G in focal areas, providing a safe and promising strategy for the clinical treatment of SCI.

Abstract
The high expression of reduced glutathione (GSH) and low pH in tumor sites have encouraged new ideas for targeted drug release. The tumor microenvironment is a crucial target for studying the anti-tumor efficiency of photothermal therapy because the microenvironment plays a key role in cancer progression, local resistance, immune escaping, and metastasis. Herein, active mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles loaded with doxorubicin and functionalized with N,N'-bis(acryloyl)cystamine (BAC) and cross-linked carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) were used to induce simultaneous redox- and pH-sensitive activity to achieve photothermal enhanced synergistic chemotherapy. The inherent disulfide bonds of BAC were able to deplete glutathione, thus increasing the oxidative stress in tumor cells and enhancing the release of doxorubicin. Additionally, the imine bonds between CMC and BAC were stimulated and decomposed in the acidic tumor microenvironment, improving the efficiency of light conversion through exposure to polydopamine. Moreover, in vitro and in vivo investigations demonstrated that this nanocomposite exhibited improved selective doxorubicin release in conditions mimicking the tumor microenvironment and low toxicity towards non-cancerous tissues, suggesting there is high potential for the clinical translation of this synergistic chemo-photothermal therapeutic agent.

Abstract
Gas therapy based on nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as a potential therapeutic approach for cancer, and in conjunction with multi-mode combination therapy, offers new possibilities for achieving significant hyperadditive effects. In this study, an integrated AI-MPDA@BSA nanocomposite for diagnosis and treatment was constructed for PDA based photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and cascade NO release. Natural NO donor L-arginine (L-Arg) and photosensitizer (PS) IR780 were loaded into mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA). Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was conjugated to the MPDA to increase the dispersibility and biocompatibility of the nanoparticles, as well as to serve as a gatekeeper controlling IR780 release from the MPDA pores. The AI-MPDA@BSA produced singlet oxygen (1O2) and converted it into NO through a chain reaction based on L-Arg, enabling a combination of photodynamic therapy and gas therapy. Moreover, due to the photothermal properties of MPDA, the AI-MPDA@BSA performed good photothermal conversion, which allowed photoacoustic imaging. As expected, both in vitro and in vivo studies have confirmed that the AI-MPDA@BSA nanoplatform has a significant inhibitory effect on cancer cells and tumors, and no apparent systemic toxicity or side effects were detected during the treatment period.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA)-based Fenton agents attract increasing attention in tumor photothermal-enhanced chemodynamic therapy (CDT) due to their good biocompatibility and excellent loading capacity. However, PDA tends to eliminate the Fenton reaction-generated hydroxyl radical (∙OH) by its strong reducibility, which is an intractable hinder to the efficacy of CDT that need to be solved. Herein, a kind of mesoporous PDA-gold-manganese dioxide (MPDA-Au-MnO2, MPAM) nanoplatform was constructed for photothermal-enhanced CDT against tumor through the reducibility weakening strategy. The reducibility of original MPDA is effectively weakened by the oxidation role of HAuCl4 and KMnO4 during the preparation process, reducing the ∙OH scavenging ability of MPDA and benefiting the production of ∙OH. The MnO2 shell could react with GSH to release Mn2+, acting as the Fenton-like agent to generate ∙OH. The exposed Au NPs can further deplete GSH through the Au-S bond interaction. MPDA acts as the photothermal agent to generate hyperthermia under laser irradiation. MPAM shows excellent intracellular GSH scavenging ability and enhanced ∙OH production ability. After intravenous injection, MPAM can significantly suppress the growth of tumors under laser irradiation, meanwhile showing good biosafety. The developed MPDA-based nanoplatform can not only display good potential in further tumor treatments but also provide meaningful enlightenment for developing high-performance PDA or MPDA-based nanoplatforms in CDT-related applications.

Abstract
Hypoxia and high accumulation of lactic acid in the tumor microenvironment provide fertile soil for tumor development, maintenance and metastasis. Herein, we developed a calcium peroxide (CaO2)-loaded nanostructure that can play a role of "one stone kill two birds", i.e., acidic and hypoxic tumor microenvironment can be simultaneously regulated by CaO2 loaded nanostructure. Specifically, CaO2-loaded mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles modified with sodium hyaluronate (denoted as CaO2@mPDA-SH) can gradually accumulate in a tumor site. CaO2 exposed in acidic microenvironment can succeed in consuming the lactic acid with oxygen generation simultaneously, which could remodel the acid and hypoxia tumor microenvironment. More importantly, the relief of hypoxia could further reduce lactate production from the source by down-regulating the hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), which further down-regulated the glycolysis associated enzymes including glycolysis-related glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA). As a result, CaO2@mPDA-SH alone without the employment of other therapeutics can dually regulate the tumor hypoxia and lactic acid metabolism, which efficiently represses tumor progression in promoting immune activation, antitumor metastasis, and anti-angiogenesis.

Abstract
The development of novel theranostic agents with outstanding diagnostic and therapeutic performances is still strongly desired in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, a fucoidan-modified mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticle dual-loaded with gadolinium iron and doxorubicin (FMPDA/Gd3+/DOX) was prepared as an effective theranostic agent for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided chemo-photothermal therapy of HCC. It was found that FMPDA/Gd3+/DOX had a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 33.4% and excellent T1-MRI performance with a longitudinal relaxivity (r1) value of 14.966 mM-1·s - 1. Moreover, the results suggested that FMPDA/Gd3+/DOX could effectively accumulate into the tumor foci by dual-targeting the tumor-infiltrated platelets and HCC cells, which resulted from the specific interaction between fucoidan and overexpressed p-selectin receptors. The excellent tumor-homing ability and MRI-guided chemo-photothermal therapy therefore endowed FMPDA/Gd3+/DOX with a strongest ability to inhibit tumor growth than the respective single treatment modality. Overall, our study demonstrated that FMPDA/Gd3+/DOX could be applied as a potential nanoplatform for safe and effective cancer theranostics.

Abstract
The combination of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy are developing as a promising clinical strategy but it urgently needs the high exploration of intelligent multifunctional drug delivery nanovectors. In this paper, we used a versatile method to construct mesoporous polydopamine nanovehicles (MPDA) with the dendritic mesopores loaded with a clinical chemotherapeutic drug, Doxorubicin (MPDA@DOX). The monodisperse nanoagents are spherical with a size of ∼160 nm and pore size of approximately 10 nm. MPDA could efficiently delivery DOX with π-π stacking interaction and acts as the potent photothermal agents. Importantly, MPDA@DOX are preferentially internalized by cancerous cells, then bursting drug release and local hyperthermia generation were observed in conditions representative of the cytoplasm in tumor cells that highly synergistic cell killing effect were found under 808 nm laser irradiation. The fluorescent imaging results of human breast tumor bearing murine model evidenced that MPDA delivery platform have excellent tumor precise targeting effect and in vivo tumor ablation experiment further revealed that MPDA@DOX showed markedly eradicated tumor growth capability under laser exposure. Therefore, this work provided a fascinating strategy based on biocompatible MPDA based drug delivery system for malignant tumors eradication via synergistic therapy.

Abstract
Cancer phototherapy has attracted increasing attention for its effectiveness, relatively low side effect, and noninvasiveness. The combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been shown to exhibit promising prospects in cancer treatment. However, the tumor hypoxia, high level of intracellular glutathione (GSH), and insufficient photosensitizer uptake significantly limit the PDT efficacy. In this work, we combine oxygen supply, GSH depletion, and tumor targeting in one nanoplatform, folate-decorated mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (FA-MPPD) co-loaded with new indocyanine green (IR-820) and perfluorooctane (PFO) (IR-820/PFO@FA-MPPD), to overcome the PDT resistance for enhanced cancer PDT/PTT. IR-820/PFO@FA-MPPD exhibit efficient singlet oxygen generation and photothermal effect under 808 nm laser irradiation, GSH-promoted IR-820 release, and efficient cellular uptake, resulting in high intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level under 808 nm laser irradiation and strong photocytotoxicity in vitro. Following intratumoral injection, IR-820/PFO@FA-MPPD can relieve tumor hypoxia sustainably by PFO-mediated oxygen transport and deplete intracellular GSH by the Michael addition reaction, which boost the PDT effect and lead to the most potent antitumor effect upon 808 nm laser irradiation. The multifunctional IR-820/PFO@FA-MPPD developed in this work offer a relatively simple and effective strategy to potentiate PDT for efficient cancer phototherapy.

Abstract
Phototherapies, including photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) have been potential noninvasive therapeutic modality with high efficiency, however, there still exist some intrinsic limitations that impede their clinical applications. Herein, taking the advantages of the synergistic effect and high reactivity of manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanosheets and glucose oxidase (GOx), multifunctional MPDA@MnO2-MB-GOx nanoamplifier was constructed for enhanced PTT, PDT, and starvation therapy. In tumor microenvironment (TME), MnO2 nanosheets on the surface of mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) could react with endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and generate oxygen (O2) to relieve tumor hypoxia, thus enhancing the efficacy of PDT and GOx catalysis. Glucose consumption under the catalysis of GOx will enhance the acidity of TME and increase intracellular H2O2 concentration, which in turn promotes the production of O2 by MnO2 nanosheets, thus forming efficient cascade reaction and maximizing the efficacy of the functional agents. Furthermore, the heat generated by MPDA under the irradiation of 808 nm laser can accelerate chemical reactions, thus further enhancing synergistic therapeutic efficacy. In vitro/vivo results emphasize that enhanced cancer cell death and tumor inhibition are gained by modulating unfavorable TME with the functional nanosystem, which highlights the promise of the synthesized MPDA@MnO2-MB-GOx nanomaterial to overcome the limitations of phototherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skin wound healing remains a considerable clinical challenge, thus stressing the urgent need for the development of new interventions to promote repair. Recent researches indicate that both peptides and nanoparticles may be potential therapies for the treatment of skin wounds. METHODS In the current study, the mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) nanoparticles were prepared and the peptide RL-QN15 that was previously identified from amphibian skin secretions and exhibited significant potential as a novel prohealing agent was successfully loaded onto the MPDA nanoparticles, which was confirmed by results of analysis of scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The encapsulation efficiency and sustained release rate of RL-QN15 from the nanocomposites were determined. The prohealing potency of nanocomposites were evaluated by full-thickness injured wounds in both mice and swine and burn wounds in mice. RESULTS Our results indicated that, compared with RL-QN15 alone, the prohealing potency of nanocomposites of MPDA and RL-QN15 in the full-thickness injured wounds and burn wounds in mice was increased by up to 50 times through the slow release of RL-QN15. Moreover, the load on the MPDA obviously increased the prohealing activities of RL-QN15 in full-thickness injured wounds in swine. In addition, the obvious increase in the prohealing potency of nanocomposites of MPDA and RL-QN15 was also proved by the results from histological analysis. CONCLUSIONS Based on our knowledge, this is the first research to report that the load of MPDA nanoparticles could significantly increase the prohealing potency of peptide and hence highlighted the promising potential of MPDA nanoparticles-carrying peptide RL-QN15 for skin wound therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Solid tumor hypoxic conditions prevent the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the formation of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) induced by ionizing radiation, which ultimately contributes to radiotherapy (RT) resistance. Recently, there have been significant technical advances in nanomedicine to reduce hypoxia by facilitating in situ O2 production, which in turn serves as a "radiosensitizer" to increase the sensitivity of tumor cells to ionizing radiation. However, off-target damage to the tumor-surrounding healthy tissue by high-energy radiation is often unavoidable, and tumor cells that are further away from the focal point of ionizing radiation may avoid damage. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an intelligent targeted nanoplatform to enable precise enhanced RT-induced DNA damage and combined therapy. RESULTS Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2)-specific dimeric affibody (ZHer2) mediated cisplatin-loaded mesoporous polydopamine/MnO2/polydopamine nanoparticles (Pt@mPDA/MnO2/PDA-ZHer2 NPs) for MRI and enhanced chemo-radiotherapy of Her2-positive ovarian tumors is reported. These NPs are biodegradable under a simulated tumor microenvironment, resulting in accelerated cisplatin release, as well as localized production of O2. ZHer2, produced using the E. coli expression system, endowed NPs with Her2-dependent binding ability in Her2-positive SKOV-3 cells. An in vivo MRI revealed obvious T1 contrast enhancement at the tumor site. Moreover, these NPs achieved efficient tumor homing and penetration via the efficient internalization and penetrability of ZHer2. These NPs exhibited excellent inhibition of tumor growth with X-ray irradiation. An immunofluorescence assay showed that these NPs significantly reduced the expression of HIF-1α and improved ROS levels, resulting in radiosensitization. CONCLUSIONS The nanocarriers described in the present study integrated Her2 targeting, diagnosis and RT sensitization into a single platform, thus providing a novel approach for translational tumor theranostics.

Abstract
It has been confirmed that endogenous glycopeptide plays an important role in a variety of pathological and physiological processes. However, direct analysis of endogenous glycopeptide is still a great challenge owing to the low abundance of endogenous glycopeptides and the presence of a large number of interfering substances such as large-sized proteins and heteropeptides in complex biological sample. Herein, we reported a novel bowl-like mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticle modified by carrageenan (denoted as MPDA@PEI@CA) with strong hydrophilicity and size-exclusion effect for high specificity enrichment of endogenous glycopeptides. Thanks to the suitable pore channel structure as well as strong hydrophilic surface, the as-prepared MPDA@PEI@CA nanoparticles exhibited prominent performance in enrichment of N-linked glycopeptide with ultrahigh selectivity (1:5000 M ratio of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) digests/bovine serum albumin (BSA) digests), low detection limit (5 fmol μL-1), outstanding size-exclusion ability (1:1000 mass of HRP/BSA), and unique reusability (five times). 125 N-glycosylation sites of 134 glycopeptides from 65 glycoproteins were identified from 2 μL sample of human serum treated with the MPDA@PEI@CA nanoparticles, which manifested the ability to enrich endogenous N-linked glycopeptides from complex biological samples. These results indicated that the bowl-like MPDA@PEI@CA nanoparticles with novel structure prepared in this work had great potential for glycopeptidome analysis.

Abstract
The combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemotherapy is a promising strategy to overcome the shortcomings of monotherapy. For the first time, we designed a self-coated nanoparticle formed by mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) core and polydopamine (PDA) shell, which was used to load docetaxel and modified with hyaluronic acid (HA). The obtained nanoparticle can achieve targeted drug delivery and further exert the synergistic effect of PTT and chemotherapy. The MPDA core has high drug loading due to mesopores, and the PDA shell can prevent the drug from releasing in the non-target-site because of the pH-sensitivity of the PDA. Compared with other PDA coated nanoparticle, self-coated nanoparticle has a simpler composition and can avoid the potential toxicity caused by the introduction of other materials. Experimental results showed that it had good photothermal conversion ability both in vivo and in vitro, and could be actively targeted into tumor cells through HA-mediated targeting. Under laser irradiation, it ablated the tumors. Simple ingredient and preparation, good compatibility and obvious therapeutic effect make it have a broad application prospect in tumor therapy.

Abstract
Green tea extract epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), as a kind of natural active compounds, has become a research hotspot in cancer treatment. However, poor stability, low bioavailability and antitumor efficacy limit the application of EGCG. In this study, mesoporous dopamine (MPDA) with high drug loading and good biocompatibility loaded EGCG, garlic extract diallyl trisulfide (DATS) and photosensitizer (indocyanine green, ICG) by π-π stacking and hydrophobic-hydrophobic interaction, and the nano-system involved filling the mesoporous of the MPDA with phase change material (1-tetradecanol, 1-TD) molecules, which acted as a thermosensitive gatekeeper. The results indicated that MPDA-ICG@TD has an excellent photothermal effect and good stability. Due to the solid-liquid phase transition characteristics of the phase change material, MPDA-ICG@TD could control the release of drugs under near-infrared laser irradiation. Besides, cytotoxicity and apoptosis experiments showed that MPDA-ICG/EGCG/DATS@TD could be efficiently inhibited 4T1 cell proliferation and accelerate cell apoptosis than use diallyl trisulfide or EGCG alone, which means that the combination of natural active compounds EGCG and diallyl trisulfide has excellent synergy and can effectively improve the antitumor effect of EGCG. Moreover, this nano-system exhibited non-toxicity and good blood compatibility. This study provides a promising and effective strategy for improving the antitumor efficacy of natural active compound EGCG.

Abstract
Salivary phosphoproteome holds great promise in clinic diagnosis. For profiling of salivary phosphoproteome, it is essential to develop efficient enrichment methods prior to mass spectrum (MS). Among developed enrichment strategies, immobilized metal ions affinity chromatography (IMAC) has exhibited outstanding performance. In this work, we report a coherent approach where polydopamine (PDA) is first utilized to form mesoporous structure through soft templating method, then chelated with Ti4+ to construct hydrophilic polydopamine-derived magnetic mesoporous nanocomposite (denoted Fe3O4@mPDA@Ti4+). In virtue of the merits including ordered mesoporous channels, appropriate superparamagnetism, and abundant Ti4+, the enrichment strategy based on Fe3O4@mPDA@Ti4+ combined with MS is employed for accurate identification of phosphopeptides in β-casein digest and human saliva. As expected, Fe3O4@mPDA@Ti4+ revealed a great selectivity (1:200) and a low detection limit (0.1 fmol μL-1) toward phosphopeptides. More importantly, the further successful capture of phosphopeptides from human saliva indicated the prominent potential of this method for seeking phosphopeptide biomarkers in further analysis.

Abstract
A versatile theranostic agent that integrated with therapeutic and diagnostic functions is extremely essential for cancer theranostic. Herein, a multifunctional theranostic nanoplatform (PFP@MPDA-DOX) based on perfluoropentane (PFP) encapsulated mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) is elaborately designed, followed by gating of drug doxorubicin (DOX) for preventing cargo leaking. The MPDA with pH-responsive biodegradation behavior was served as nanocarrier, which also endows the nanoplatform with a large cavity for PFP filling. The nanoparticles were then gated with DOX molecule by Michael addition and/or Schiff base reaction to shield the leaking of PFP during the blood circulation before the tumor tissue is reached. Also, such nanotheranostic exhibits high photothermal conversion efficiency of 45.6%, which can act as an intelligent nanosystem for photothermal therapy (PTT) and photoacoustic (PA) imaging. Moreover, the liquid-gas phase transition of PFP arising upon exposure to an 808 nm laser and thus produced the bubbles for ultrasound (US) imaging. The subsequent PFP@MPDA-DOX-mediated synergetic chemotherapy (contributed by the DOX gatekeeper) and PTT (contributed by the MPDA) shows excellent anticancer activity, which has been systematically evaluated both in vitro and in vivo. All these positive results certify that the facile incorporation of the antitumor drug gatekeeper and MPDA into one theranostic nanoplatform shows general potential for multimode PA/US imaging and combination chemotherapy/PTT of tumors.

Abstract
Hepatic cancer is a serious disease with high morbidity and mortality. Theranostic agents with effective diagnostic and therapeutic capability are highly needed for the treatment of hepatic cancer. Herein, we aimed to develop a novel mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA)-based theranostic agent for T1/T2 dual magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided cancer chemo-photothermal therapy. Superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-loaded MPDA NPs (MPDA@SPIO) was firstly prepared, followed by modifying with a targeted molecule of sialic acid (SA) and chelating with Fe3+ (SA-MPDA@SPIO/Fe3+ NPs). After that, doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded SA-MPDA@SPIO/Fe3+ NPs (SA-MPDA@SPIO/DOX/Fe3+) was prepared for tumor theranostics. The prepared SAPEG-MPDA@SPIO/Fe3+ NPs were water-dispersible and biocompatible as evidenced by MTT assay. In vitro photothermal and relaxivity property suggested that the novel theranostic agent possessed excellent photothermal conversion capability and photostability, with relaxivity of being r1 = 4.29 mM−1s−1 and r2 = 105.53 mM−1s−1, respectively. SAPEG-MPDA@SPIO/Fe3+ NPs could effectively encapsulate the DOX, showing dual pH- and thermal-triggered drug release behavior. In vitro and in vivo studies revealed that SA-MPDA@SPIO/DOX/Fe3+ NPs could effectively target to the hepatic tumor tissue, which was possibly due to the specific interaction between SA and the overexpressed E-selectin. This behavior also endowed SA-MPDA@SPIO/DOX/Fe3+ NPs with a more precise T1-T2 dual mode contrast imaging effect than the one without SA modification. In addition, SAPEG-MPDA@SPIO/DOX/Fe3+ NPs displayed a superior therapeutic effect, which was due to its active targeting ability and combined effects of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy. These results demonstrated that SAPEG-MPDA@SPIO/DOX/Fe3+ NPs is an effective targeted nanoplatform for tumor theranostics, having potential value in the effective treatment of hepatic cancer. Sialic acid (SA)-modified SPIO-loaded mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) was prepared. SAPEG-MPDA@SPIO NPs was effective at dual loading Fe3+ ion and DOX. SAPEG-MPDA@SPIO/DOX/Fe3+ NPs showed pH- and NIR-responsible drug release behaviors. SAPEG-MPDA@SPIO/DOX/Fe3+ NPs could actively target to the hepatic tumor sites. The novel theranostic achieved dual-mode MRI guided chemo-photothermal therapy.

Abstract
Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists are the potent stimulants of innate immune system and hold promises as an adjuvant for anticancer immunotherapy. Unfortunately, most of them are limited by a prompt dissemination, and thus caused "wasted inflammation". Hence, how to restrict their action radius into lymphoid tissues is of great relevance to enhance their efficacy and concomitantly alleviates the side effects. Here, imiquimod (R837), a TLR 7 agonist, was loaded into mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) nanocarriers with high efficiency. Moreover, its surface was modified by polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) to enhance their lymphatic drainage ability. These nano-adjuvants have obvious advantages in promoting dendritic cell (DC) maturation in comparison to free R837. Moreover, their transportation and retention ability in proximal lymph nodes (LNs) were also confirmed, by which lymphatic drug exposure can be maximized to a great extent. Consequently, effective DC activation and CD8+ T cell responses were observed as expected by R837 released in draining LNs. This effect was further enhanced by the presence of endogenous tumor antigens from apoptosis debris induced by MPDA-based photothermal effect, and thus led to the growth inhibition of subcutaneous B16 melanomas. The results demonstrated the great potency against melanoma of the designed PVP-MPDA@R837 nano-adjuvants by combining photothermal conversion property of MPDA with lymphatic-focused immune-activation.
