Magnetic Resonance Contrast Enhancement

According to the differences of microenvironments between tumors and healthy tissues, if the anticancer drugs or magnetic resonance contrast agents (MRCAs) can be controlled to precisely match physiological needs at targeted tumor sites, it is expected to acquire better therapeutic efficacy and more accurate diagnosis. Over the decade, stimuli-responsive nanomaterials have been a research hotspot for cancer treatment and diagnosis because they show many excellent functions, such as in vivo imaging, combined targeting drug delivery and systemic controlled release, extended circulation time, etc. Among the various stimuli nanosystems, pH-stimuli mode is regarded as the most general strategy because of solid tumors acidosis. When exposed to weakly acidic tumor microenvironment, pH-responsive nanoplatforms can generate physicochemical changes for their structure and surface characteristics, causing drug release or contrast enhancement. In this review, we focused on the designs of various pH-responsive nanoplatforms and discussed the mechanisms of controlled drug release or switch on-off in MRCAs. This review also discussed the efficacy of cellular internalization for these nanoplatforms via endocytosis of acidic tumor cell. Meanwhile, nanoplatforms response to acidic intracellular pH (such as endosome, lysosome) are discussed, along with approaches for improving drug release performance and magnetic resonance contrast enhancement. A greater understanding of these pH-responsive nanoplatforms will help design more efficient nanomedicine to address the challenges encountered in conventional diagnosis and chemotherapy.

Abstract Microrobots have attracted great attentions due to their wide applications in microobjects manipulation and targeted drug delivery. To realize more complex micro/nano cargos manipulation (e.g., encapsulation and release) in biological applications, endowing microrobots with shapes adaptability with the environment is highly desirable. Here, designable shape-morphing microrobots (SMMRs) have been developed by programmatically encoding different expansion rate in a pH-responsive hydrogel. Combined with magnetic propelling, the shape-morphing microcrab (SMMC) is capable of performing targeted microparticle delivery, including gripping, transporting, and releasing through claws morphing. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, the shape-morphing microfish (SMMF) is designed to encapsulate drug (doxorubicin (DOX)) by closing mouth in phosphate buffer saline (PBS, pH~7.4) and release them by opening mouth in slightly acid solution (pH<7), which realize localized Hela cells treatment in an artificial vascular network. These SMMRs with powerful shape morphing capabilities and remote motion controllability provide new platforms for complex microcargos operation and on-demand drug release.
