Since the early observations that nitric oxide (•NO) at high concentrations is cytotoxic to cancer cells and it may play an important role in treatment of human cancers, a significant number compounds (NO-donors) have been prepared deliver •NO tumors. also sensitizes various clinically active anticancer drugs has shown induce reversal multi-drug resistance tumor expressing ATP-binding cassette-transporter proteins. For successful needs be delivered precisely tumors, its adverse toxicity must limited. Like other chemotherapeutics, precise delivery problem attempts made, such as encapsulation lipid polymers, overcome this. This prospective study examines use strategies for delivering (using NO-donors) cancers. Finding utilizing system step tumors without reactions, leading clinical outcome patient management.

Abstract Nanotechnology shows the power to improve efficacy and reduce adverse effects of anticancer agents. As a quinone‐containing compound, beta‐lapachone (LAP) is widely employed for targeted therapy under hypoxia. The principal mechanism LAP‐mediated cytotoxicity believed due continuous generation reactive oxygen species with aid NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1). cancer selectivity LAP relies on difference between NQO1 expression in tumors that healthy organs. Despite this, clinical translation faces problem narrow therapeutic window challenging dose regimen design. Herein, multifaceted briefly introduced, advance nanocarriers delivery reviewed, combinational approaches enhance potency recent years are summarized. mechanisms by which nanosystems boost efficacy, including tumor targeting, cellular uptake enhancement, controlled cargo release, enhanced Fenton or Fenton‐like reaction, multidrug synergism, also presented. problems nanomedicines prospective solutions discussed. current review may help unlock potential cancer‐specific speed up its translation.

Abstract Almost all cancer treatments are significantly limited by the strong tumor microenvironment (TME) fortress formed abnormal vasculature, dense extracellular matrix (ECM), multidrug resistance (MDR) system, and immune “cold” environment. In huge efforts of dismantling TME fortress, nitric oxide (NO)‐based nanomedicines increasingly occupying a central position have already been identified as super “strong polygonal warriors” to dismantle for efficient treatment, benefiting from NO's unique physicochemical properties extremely fascinating biological effects. However, there is paucity systematic review elaborate on progress fundamental mechanism NO‐based in oncology this aspect. Herein, key characteristics potential NO reprogramming delineated highlighted. The evolution donors advantages discussed subsequently. Moreover, latest solid tumors comprehensively reviewed, including normalizing overcoming ECM barrier, reversing MDR, reactivating immunosuppression TME. Lastly, prospects, limitations, future directions manipulation provide new insights into construction more applicable anticancer nanomedicines.

The free radical nitric oxide (NO) is a signaling molecule that controls several important physiological and pathophysiological processes in mammals plants. In humans, the biological impacts of NO include, but are not limited to, key roles cardiovascular, neurological, immunological, respiratory, reproductive systems. plants, modulates plant growth development with defense against biotic abiotic stress conditions. However, administration exogenous donors still faces limitations, mainly due to their instability lack bioavailability system. Recently, combination nanomaterials has been extensively explored as promising strategy tailor spatiotemporal release therapeutic amounts NO. Nanoscience offers smart approaches deliver on demand for particular application. Although this shown results, scientific studies less agricultural applications compared biomedical research. current review summarizes impact research emphasizes recent progress nanotechnology donors. advantages, challenges, drawbacks discussed light inspiring exciting topic, aiming translate these innovations into clinical/practical settings.

Medical gases were primarily used for respiratory therapy and anesthesia, which showed promising potential in the cancer therapy. Several physiological pathological processes affected by key gases, such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitric oxide, hydrogen sulfide, monoxide. Oxygen targets shrinking tumor via hyperbaric oxygen therapy, once combined with radiation it enhances its effect. Nitric oxide has both anti- pro-tumor effects depending on level; at high doses, triggers cell death while low doses supports growth. The same concept is applied to sulfide promotes growth enhancing mitochondrial bioenergetics supporting angiogenesis concentrations, concentrations induces sparing normal cells. Furthermore, dioxide helps induce apoptosis improve oxygenation treatments increasing release of from hemoglobin. Moreover, high-dose monoxide gas demonstrated significant reductions vivo supported nanomedicine specialized medicines boost delivery cells availability peroxide. Despite potentials these several challenges remain. Gas should be regulated balance anti-tumor sulfide. effective systems, nanoparticles, developed targeted

Recently, green gas therapy based on nitric oxide (NO) has gained considerable attention in cancer treatment. The supplementation of exogenous NO and its controlled release represent promising strategies for adjuvant tumor therapy. In this study, we developed a novel ultrasound (US)-triggered generation nanoplatform that integrates therapy, sonodynamic photothermal (PTT) into collaborative therapeutic modality. An environmentally friendly biomacromolecule, polydopamine, was employed to coload chlorin e6 (Ce6) donor (BNN6), resulting the nanocomposite PDA-Ce6/BNN6 (PCB). A single US stimulus simultaneously activated Ce6 produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) promoted BNN6 NO. dual effects ultrasonic mechanical action physiological modulation by substantially improved local vascular function enhanced cell permeability, thereby increasing targeted accumulation PCB within tumors. Reactive nitrogen (RNS) derived from ROS further exacerbated oxidative damage sensitivity cells hyperthermia. Both vitro vivo experiments demonstrated stimulation NO/ROS/RNS combined with PTT effectively inhibited growth proliferation. findings suggest extracorporeal can significantly amplify efficacy offer new insights developing other aimed at physically regulating deep
