Abstract Background Radioresistance inducing by hypoxic microenvironment of hepatocellular carcinoma is a major obstacle to clinical radiotherapy. Advanced nanomedicine provides an alternative to alleviate the hypoxia extent of solid tumor, even to achieve effective synergistic treatment when combined with chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Results Herein, we developed a self-assembled nanoparticle based on hemoglobin and curcumin for photoacoustic imaging and radiotherapy of hypoxic hepatocellular carcinoma. The fabricated nanoparticles inhibited hepatoma migration and vascular mimics, and enhanced the radiosensitivity of hypoxic hepatoma cells in vitro via repressing cell proliferation and DNA damage repair, as well as inducing apoptosis. Benefit from oxygen-carrying hemoglobin combined with polyphenolic curcumin, the nanoparticles also effectively enhanced the photoacoustic contrast and the efficacy of radiotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma in vivo. Conclusions Together, the current study offered a radiosensitization platform for optimizing the efficacy of nanomedicines on hypoxic radioresistant tumor. Graphical Abstract

The detection of nanoparticles is the basis of the study of synthesis mechanism, active regulation of the synthesis process, and the study of nanoparticle properties after synthesis. It is significantly meaningful to the academia and engineering industry. Although there are many relevant detection methods at present, each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and their measurement quantity and application conditions are also different. There is a lack of unified sorting and generalization. In this paper, the significance of detection of nanoparticles synthesized by a gas-phase method is introduced, the development of detection technology is reviewed, and the future is prospected. It is hoped that this paper will provide a reference for the detection of nanoparticles under various conditions and for the development of new detection methods.

In this study, TiO
2 nanorod arrays (NAs) on carbon paper (CP) substrates were prepared via hydrothermal synthesis. Then, Ag nanoparticles (NPs) were deposited on the surface of the TiO2 NAs to enhance the electrocatalytic activity and analysis ability of the electrode for H2 O2 . Thereafter, GOx was modified on the surface of the Ag NPs-TiO2 NAs/CP via the cross-linking method for the detection of glucose. The GOx/Ag NPs-TiO2 NAs/CP integrates the functions of the specific recognition of glucose, signal transduction, and signal amplification. In an in vitro test, this GOx/Ag NPs-TiO2 NAs/CP biosensor shows a sensitivity of 0.182 mA mM-1 cm-2 , which is 6.6-fold that for the GOx/CP sensor (0.0276 mA mM-1 cm-2 ). The sensor can transduce the GOx-catalyzed reaction into significant current signals within 5 s. The relationship between the glucose concentration and the sensitivity to glucose is linear with the correlation coefficient R² of 0.9996 in the range of 0-0.9 mM, and the detection limit was estimated to be 1.6 µM.

In this study, a novel intelligent nanoplatform to integrate multiple imaging and therapeutic functions for targeted cancer theranostics. The nanoplatform, DOX@Gd-MFe
3 O4 NPs, was constructed Gd-doped mesoporous Fe3 O4 nanoparticles following with the doxorubicin (DOX) loading in the mesopores of the NPs. The DOX@Gd-MFe3 O4 NPs exhibited good properties in colloidal dispersity, photothermal conversion, NIR triggered drug release, and high T1 /T2 relaxicity rate (r1 =9.64mM-1 s-1 , r2 = 177.71mM-1 s-1 ). Benefiting from the high MR contrast, DOX@Gd-MFe3O4 NPs enabled simultaneous T1 /T2 dual-modal MR imagining on 4T1 bearing mice in vivo and the MR contrast effect was further strengthened by external magnetic field. In addition, the DOX@Gd-MFe3 O4 NPs revealed the strongest inhibition to the growth of 4T1 in vitro and in vivo under NIR irradiation and guidance of external magnetic field. Moreover, biosafety was also validated by in vitro and in vivo tests. Thus, the prepared DOX@Gd-MFe3 O4 NPs would provide a promising intelligent nanoplatform for dual-modal MR imagining guided synergistic therapy in cancer theranostics.

• Polymorphism of formed NiO nanoparticles with size in 25-50 nm was observed. • High toxicity of nanoparticles was witnessed against MG-63 cancer cells. • NiO nanoparticles revealed high biocompatibility on HEK293 normal cells. • Nanoparticles showed bactericidal activity on various human pathogenic bacteria. The green synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles is interestingly becoming familiar as the reason of its non-toxicity, economical, eco-friendly, and commerciality. The secondary metabolites and bioactive molecules in biomaterial extract play an important role of reducing, capping, stabilizing and chelating activities to form the nanoparticles as a substitute of hazardous chemical surfactants. Hence this present work concentrated on the biogenic synthesis of NiO nanoparticles using grains extract of Oryza longistaminata (red rice), and their toxicity assessment as well as biomedical applications. The synthesized nanoparticles were widely characterized by using several analytical and biomedical techniques. The reduction mechanism of Ni2+ ions using major active phytocompound in red rice grains extract was stated. UV–visible spectroscopic analysis revealed the formation of NiO nanoparticles by emerging the sharp surface Plasmon resonance band at 326 nm. The absorption peaks of red rice grains extract at 206, 260, 330 and 410 nm stated the presence of phytocompounds in them. X-ray diffraction pattern explicated the high crystallinity of NiO nanoparticles and their average crystallite size was found to be at 36 nm. The diffraction pattern of red rice grains revealed the amorphous characteristic. Fourier transform infrared analysis displayed the different vibrational functional groups of nanoparticles and red rice grains. Dynamic light scattering analysis showed the particle size distribution was in between 30-65 nm. High-resolution transmission electron microscopic analysis showed the hexagonal, rectangular, oval and spherical shaped polymorphism of NiO nanoparticles and their size was in 25-50 nm. Energy dispersive X-ray spectrum and mapping analyses validated the formation of NiO nanoparticles by the major existence of Ni and O elements. The high toxicity of nanoparticles towards MG-63 osteosarcoma cancer cells was revealed at 94.69% in 100 μg/mL concentration. The nanoparticles showed no severe toxicity against HEK293 normal cells and red blood cells till higher concentration. The biomedical analyses such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic activities exposed the potential bio-drug activity of NiO nanoparticles with maximum activity of 86.22, 84.23 and 85.18% in the high concentration of 80 μg/mL. The antibacterial activity divulged the good bactericidal drug nature of NiO nanoparticles against both Gram-positive (S. aureus and B. Subtilis) and Gram-negative (S. typhi and K. pneumonia) bacteria with low MBC/MIC ratio. As per the assessment of results, the biosynthesized NiO nanoparticles have non-carcinogenic, high biocompatible and potent nature and it suggests that they can be used as therapeutic candidates in biomedical, clinical and pharmaceutical fields for treating various diseases.

The treatment of breast cancer (BC) is a serious challenge due to its heterogeneous nature, multidrug resistance (MDR), and limited therapeutic options. Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems (NDDSs) represent a promising tool for overcoming toxicity and chemotherapy drug resistance in BC treatment. No bibliometric studies have yet been published on the research landscape of NDDS-based treatment of BC. In this review, we extracted data from 1,752 articles on NDDS-based treatment of BC published between 2012 and 2022 from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) database. VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and some online platforms were used for bibliometric analysis and visualization. Publication trends were initially observed: in terms of geographical distribution, China and the United States had the most papers on this subject. The highest contributing institution was Sichuan University. In terms of authorship and co-cited authorship, the most prolific author was Yu Zhang. Furthermore, Qiang Zhang and co-workers have made tremendous achievements in the field of NDDS-based BC treatment. The article titled “Nanomedicine in cancer therapy: challenges, opportunities, and clinical applications” had the most citations. The Journal of Controlled Release was one of the most active publishers in the field. “Global cancer statistics 2018: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries” was the most cited reference. We also analysed “hot” and cutting-edge research for NDDSs in BC treatment. There were nine topic clusters: “tumour microenvironment,” “nanoparticles (drug delivery),” “breast cancer/triple-negative breast cancer,” “combination therapy,” “drug release (pathway),” “multidrug resistance,” “recent advance,” “targeted drug delivery”, and “cancer nanomedicine.” We also reviewed the core themes of research. In summary, this article reviewed the application of NDDSs in the treatment of BC.

• The mechanism for eliminating adsorbed oxygen by the reduction with H and CO on χ-Fe 5 C 2 surfaces was investigated. • The removal mechanism shows diversity over different facets. • Carbon-rich surface exhibits higher barriers to direct CO 2 formation, like (110) and (111). The removal of surface oxygen adsorbed on iron carbides is essential to protect the nanoparticle from oxidation in heterogeneous catalysis. Herein, we explored the removal of pre-adsorbed oxygen on seven facets of χ-Fe 5 C 2, and four pathways including both direct and indirect routes for generating H 2 O and CO 2 were investigated. The removal mechanism shows diversity over different facets. On (010), the formation of CO 2 through the reaction between surface oxygen and adsorbed CO is more favorable. While on (510), (001), (110), (11-1) and (-411), the elimination in the form of H 2 O through OH disproportionation dominates. In particular, surface oxygen can be removed facilely either in H 2 O or CO 2 on (111) surface. What's more, surface with more carbons exhibits higher barriers to direct CO 2 formation, like (110) and (111). Our work provides knowledge about mechanism of O removal and CO 2 formation, which may be helpful in protecting the nanoparticle from further oxidation. Graphical Abstract [Display omitted].
