Conducting research focused on mitochondria helps elucidate the mechanisms of disease development and offers new therapeutic perspectives for combating challenging conditions like malignant tumors, myocardial injury, Parkinson's disease, and other related ailment. In recent years, the flourishing development of near-infrared (NIR) technology has provided powerful tools for mitochondrial research. NIR light serves as both an information carrier for biological imaging and analysis, and as a non-invasive stimulus in drug delivery, phototherapy, and energy conversion applications. Currently, a large number of NIR materials have been applied to target mitochondria in disease diagnosis, treatment, and theranostics. These materials have garnered significant attention due to their unique properties and remarkable in vivo performance. This review aims to provide researchers developing mitochondria-targeted NIR materials for biomedical applications with an advanced and comprehensive guide. It not only offers valuable insights into design strategies, material properties, and applications in disease diagnosis and treatment, such as strategies to improve imaging sensitivity, specificity, and therapeutic efficacy, but also delves into the existing challenges in the field, issues that persist in clinical translation, and future prospects.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":395,"journal":{"name":"Nano Today","volume":"59 ","pages":"Article 102478"},"PeriodicalIF":13.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142158002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Presently, delivery systems predominantly attain cytosolic release through membrane rupture or destabilization of late endosomes and lysosomes. However, these approaches lead to restricted RNA release and undesirable cytotoxicity, ultimately diminishing therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we proposed an efficient strategy based on early endosome fusion-mediated release, employing probiotic-derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-incorporated vesicles to enhance RNA delivery. The LPS is derived from Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) and has a high safety confirmed by the authoritative pyrogen test. The LPS-rich outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) and synthetic chimeric liposomes (LPS-Lips) are found capable of efficient cytosolic RNA delivery by using LPS to fuse with early endosomes, as evidenced by super-resolution and real-time imaging. The OMVs and LPS-Lips (containing 10 % and 30 % EcN-derived LPS) exhibit enhanced ability to deliver functional BCL-xL siRNA, leading to more significant gene silencing and cell apoptosis in comparison to the commercial Lipofectamine 2000 and RNAiMAX groups. The <em>in vivo</em> results demonstrate their superior efficacy on inhibiting tumor growth and prolonged survival time with enhanced safety. These findings highlight the early endosome fusion strategy with facilitated release efficiency and safety, offering guidelines for the rational design of enhanced RNA delivery systems.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":395,"journal":{"name":"Nano Today","volume":"59 ","pages":"Article 102480"},"PeriodicalIF":13.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142164090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The generated ROS and CDDP caused damage to nDNA and mitochondrial DNA (mitoDNA), and further initiated the cGAS-STING pathway to trigger innate immune, which could be enhanced by Mn²⁺ via improving sensitivity of cGAS to dsDNA. The activation of adaptive and innate immune response could result in an excellent antitumor immunity response and long-lasting immunological memory, remarkably impede primary tumor growth and relapse in vitro and vivo.

Vaccines are important tools for reducing viral infections and preventing serious illness, hospitalization, and death. However, vaccines are still not widely accessible in some areas, particularly in low-income countries, because of limited production capacity and inadequate medical personnel, resulting in high morbidity and mortality rates during pandemics. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the development of vaccines that can be rapidly manufactured and self-administered in response to pandemics caused by respiratory-transmitted viruses. In this work, we developed an inhalable vaccine platform consisting of antigen-engineered cell membrane vesicles (CMVs) and cholesterolized CpG anchoring to the vesicle surface to establish an “all-in-one” vaccine platform (antigen/CpG-CMVs), which could induce mucosal immunity upon oropharyngeal inhalation to protect against viral infections in the respiratory tract. Its antigen, adjuvant, and particle size can be adjusted as needed through gene editing, cholesterol modification, and extrusion process, respectively. The lyophilized antigen/CpG-CMVs can be distributed without cold-chain transportation and can be self-administered by inhalation upon reconstitution. We found that this inhalable “all-in-one” vaccine induced not only systemic immunity but also mucosal immunity in the respiratory tract, as reflected by the enhanced levels of systemic immunoglobulin G (IgG) and respiratory secreted immunoglobulin A (sIgA).
