Metal–organic frameworks are smart carriers for controlled drug delivery due to large surface area and adjustable pore size. Current approaches can hardly utilize the space of MOFs thoroughly, greatly causing waste space. Here, Pore Space Partition (PSP) approach was employed achieve effective encapsulation pH-controlled codelivery two guest molecules. The ZIF-8 partitioned by molecule ursolic acid (UA), remaining filled with small 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), obtaining 5-FU&UA@ZIF-8 high loading capacity UA (12.80 wt %) 5-FU (11.20 %). Accompanied collapse in acidic surroundings, exhibited delivery. To our surprise, also showed pH responsive delivery, which did not exist before partition UA. Codelivery enable have good anticancer performance against 4T1 cells.

The limitations associated with the conventional treatment of cancer have necessitated design and development novel drug delivery systems based mainly on nanotechnology. These include various kinds nanoparticles, such as polymeric solid lipid nanostructured carriers, hydrogels, micelles. Among systems, chitosan-based nanoparticles attracted attention researchers to treat cancer. Chitosan is a polycationic polymer generated from chitin characteristics biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-toxicity, mucoadhesiveness, making it an ideal fabricate systems. However, chitosan poorly soluble in water acidic aqueous solutions. Furthermore, owing presence reactive amino groups, can be chemically modified improve its physiochemical properties. derivatives employed which are used most frequently pharmaceutical sector due their possession nanosize, appropriate pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic properties, non-immunogenicity, improved stability, loading capacity. capable delivering nucleic acids, chemotherapeutic medicines, bioactives using chitosan. derivative-based targeted specific sites via active passive mechanisms. Based many anticancer drugs now better effectiveness, potency, cytotoxicity, or biocompatibility. tailored derivatives, well use therapy, will examined this review.

T helper (Th) cells have received extensive attention owing to their indispensable roles in anti-tumor immune responses. Th1 and Th2 are two key subsets of Th that exist relative equilibrium through the secretion cytokines suppress respective response. When type cytokine tumor microenvironment is altered, this may be disrupted, leading a shift from Th1/Th2 imbalance one decisive factors development malignant tumors. Therefore, focusing on balance responses enable future breakthroughs cancer immunotherapy. Polysaccharides can regulate between characteristic profiles, thereby improving microenvironment. To our knowledge, study most comprehensive assessment regulation by polysaccharides. Herein, we systematically summarized intrinsic molecular mechanisms polysaccharides provide new perspective potential target drugs for improved immunity delayed progression.

Anticancer drugs in monotherapy are ineffective to treat various kinds of cancer due the heterogeneous nature cancer. Moreover, available anticancer possessed hurdles, such as drug resistance, insensitivity cells drugs, adverse effects and patient inconveniences. Hence, plant-based phytochemicals could be a better substitute for conventional chemotherapy treatment properties: lesser effects, action via multiple pathways, economical, etc. Various preclinical studies have demonstrated that combination with is more efficacious than individually because plant-derived compounds lower efficacy drugs. suffer from poor aqueous solubility reduced bioavailability, which must resolved Therefore, nanotechnology-based novel carriers employed codelivery These include nanoemulsion, nanosuspension, nanostructured lipid carriers, solid nanoparticles, polymeric micelles, dendrimers, metallic carbon nanotubes provide benefits improved solubility, higher efficacy, dose, dosing frequency, bioavailability compliance.

Abstract Photothermal therapy (PTT) has garnered significant attention in recent years, but the standalone application of PTT still faces limitations that hinder its ability to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes. Nitric oxide (NO), being one most extensively studied gaseous molecules, presents itself as a promising complementary candidate for PTT. In response, various nanosystems have been developed enable simultaneous utilization and NO‐mediated gas (GT), with integration photothermal agents (PTAs) thermally‐sensitive NO donors prevailing approach. This combination seeks leverage synergistic effects GT while mitigating potential risks associated toxicity through use single laser irradiation. Furthermore, additional internal or external stimuli employed trigger release when combined different types PTAs, thereby further enhancing efficacy. comprehensive review aims summarize advancements gas‐assisted cancer treatment. It commences by providing an overview precursors, including those sensitive photothermal, light, ultrasound, reactive oxygen species, glutathione. These precursors are discussed context dual‐modal PTT/GT. Subsequently, incorporation other treatment modalities such chemotherapy (CHT), photodynamic (PDT), alkyl radical therapy, radiation immunotherapy (IT) creation triple‐modal nanoplatforms is presented. The explores tetra‐modal therapies, PTT/GT/CHT/PDT, PTT/GT/CHT/chemodynamic (CDT), PTT/GT/PDT/IT, PTT/GT/starvation (ST)/IT, PTT/GT/Ca 2+ overload/IT, PTT/GT/ferroptosis (FT)/IT, PTT/GT/CDT/IT. Finally, challenges future perspectives concerning these novel paradigms discussed. anticipated serve valuable resource studies focused on development innovative photothermal/NO‐based nanotheranostics.
