ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening and early diagnosis is an effective strategy for reducing CRC mortality. However, the current detection methods involve exorbitant costs complex procedures, which are inconvenient large‐scale screening. Given its high prevalence in malignant tissues feces of patients, Fusobacterium nucleatum ( F. ) has emerged as a crucial biomarker CRC. Herein, we propose ‐specific recognition diagnosis. A novel nanobioprobe (AIE‐Pep) with aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) characteristics was synthesized by conjugating red/near‐infrared (NIR) emissive AIE luminogen (AIEgen) FadA‐targeting peptide (ASANWTIQYND). The robust binding affinity between FadA on allows AIE‐Pep NPs to adhere selectively , emits strong red/NIR fluorescence.

The gut microbiota is an integral component of the colorectal cancer (CRC) microenvironment and intimately associated with CRC initiation, progression, therapeutic outcomes. We reviewed recent advancements in utilizing nanotechnology for modulating microbiota, discussing strategies mechanisms underlying their design.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) occurs in the colorectum and ranks second global incidence of all cancers, accounting for one highest mortalities. Although combination chemotherapy regimen 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) platinum(IV) oxaliplatin prodrug (OxPt) is an effective strategy CRC treatment clinical practice, resistance caused by tumor-resided Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) could result failure. To enhance efficacy improve biocompatibility chemotherapy, we developed antibacterial-based nanodrug delivery system Fn-associated treatment.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an intestinal condition, involving inflammatory response, apoptosis, and associated processes. As one of the traditional Chinese medicine treatments for UC, quercetin has received attention because it can attenuate inflammation. However, oral administration does not perform well in therapy. In this study, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive nanoparticles (Que@Gel-DA NPs) prepared by self-assembly polymerization were proposed treatment UC. Quercetin was encapsulated within a shell layer gelatin, followed dopamine on gelatin surface. Relative to free form quercetin, dual-layer encapsulation enhanced solubility bioavailability achieved intragastric protection, extended resident time gastrointestinal tract. Upon reaching colon lesion, underwent degradation response ROS, served enhance biocompatibility mitigate burst release. This resulted controlled release which enabled precise therapy exerted antibacterial anti-inflammatory effects. Furthermore, Que@Gel-DA NPs significantly alleviated UC symptoms dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced mouse model. evidenced significant increase body weight, reduction occult blood feces, recovery crypt structure.

Abstract Fusobacterium nucleatum ( Fn ) enrichment has been identified in colorectal cancer and its liver metastases. In this study, we found that predominantly accumulated within cells, correlating with metastasis. Clinically, the administration of high doses antibiotics chemotherapeutic agents can disrupt balance host microbiota. To address clinical challenge, metronidazole (MTI) oxaliplatin (OXA) are encapsulated poly (lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles. Neutrophil membrane vesicles extracted from murine bone marrow coated these nanoparticles (NM@PLGA‐MTI‐OXA), creating neutrophil‐mimetic dual targeting capabilities for antibacterial anticancer purposes. The neutrophil coating, compared free drugs, is to enhance nanoparticle uptake by tumor facilitating intracellular bacterial elimination cell death. Further experiments reveal NM@PLGA‐MTI‐OXA reverses ‐induced epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) cells during metastasis remodels immunosuppressive microenvironment, suppressing development while minimizing broad‐spectrum damage commensal
