Circadian rhythms and their involvement with various human diseases, including neurological disorders, have become an intense area of research for the development of new pharmacological treatments. The location of the circadian clock machinery in the central nervous system makes it challenging to reach molecular targets at therapeutic concentrations. In addition, a timely administration of the therapeutic agents is necessary to efficiently modulate the circadian clock. Thus, the use of nanoparticles in circadian clock dysfunctions may accelerate their clinical translation by addressing these two key challenges: enhancing brain penetration and/or enabling their formulation in chronodelivery systems. This review describes the implications of the circadian clock in neurological pathologies, reviews potential molecular targets and their modulators and suggests how the use of nanoparticle-based formulations could improve their clinical success. Finally, the potential integration of nanoparticles into chronopharmaceutical drug delivery systems will be described.

The musculoskeletal system relies on critical tissue interfaces for its function; however, these interfaces are often compromised by injuries and diseases. Restoration of these interfaces is complex by nature which renders traditional treatments inadequate. An emerging solution is three-dimensional printing, which allows for precise fabrication of biomimetic scaffolds to enhance tissue regeneration. This review summarizes the use of 3D printing in creating scaffolds for musculoskeletal interfaces, mainly focusing on advanced techniques such as multi-material printing, bioprinting, and 4D printing. We emphasize the significance of mimicking natural tissue gradients and the selection of appropriate biomaterials to ensure scaffold success. The review outlines state-of-the-art 3D printing technologies, varying from extrusion, inkjet and laser-assisted bioprinting, which are crucial for producing scaffolds with tailored mechanical and biological properties. Applications in cartilage-bone, intervertebral disc, tendon/ligament-bone, and muscle–tendon junction engineering are discussed, highlighting the potential for improved integration and functionality. Furthermore, we address challenges in material development, printing resolution, and the in vivo performance of scaffolds, as well as the prospects for clinical translation. The review concludes by underscoring the transformative potential of 3D printing to advance orthopedic medicine, offering a roadmap for future research at the intersection of biomaterials, drug delivery, and tissue engineering.

Delivery of nanoparticles (NPs) to solid tumors has long relied on enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, involving permeation of NPs through a leaky vasculature with prolonged retention by reduced lymphatic drainage in tumor. Recent research studies and clinical data challenge EPR concept, revealing alternative pathways and approaches of NP delivery. The area was significantly impacted by the implementation of intravital optical microscopy, unraveling delivery mechanisms at cellular level in vivo. This review presents analysis of the reasons for EPR heterogeneity in tumors and describes non-EPR based concepts for drug delivery, which can supplement the current paradigm. One of the approaches is targeting tumor endothelium by NPs with subsequent intravascular drug release and gradient-driven drug transport to tumor interstitium. Others exploit various immune cells for tumor infiltration and breaking endothelial barriers. Finally, we discuss the involvement of active transcytosis through endothelial cells in NP delivery. This review aims to inspire further understanding of the process of NP extravasation in tumors and provide insights for developing next-generation nanomedicines with improved delivery.

Acoustic tweezers are a highly promising technology for targeted drug delivery thanks to their unique capabilities: (i) they can effectively operate in both in vitro and in vivo environments, (ii) they can manipulate a wide range of particle sizes and materials, and (iii) they can exert forces several orders of magnitude larger than competing techniques while remaining safe for biological tissues. In particular, tweezers capable of selectively capturing and manipulating objects in 3D with a single beam, known as ‘single beam tweezers’, open new perspectives for delivering drug carriers to precise locations. In this review, we first introduce the fundamental physical principles underlying the manipulation of particles using acoustic tweezers and highlight the latest advancements in the field. We then discuss essential considerations for the design of drug delivery carriers suitable for use with acoustic tweezers. Finally, we summarise recent promising studies that explore the use of acoustic tweezers for in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo drug delivery.

Light, a non-invasive tool integrated with cutting-edge nanotechnologies, has driven transformative advancements in imaging-based diagnosis and drug delivery for cancer and bacterial treatments. This review discusses recent progress in these areas, beginning with emerging imaging technologies. Unlike traditional photosensors activated by visible light, alternative energy sources such as near-infrared (NIR) light, X-rays, and ultrasound have been extensively investigated to activate various photosensors, achieving high sensitivity, wavelength versatility, and spatial resolution for deep-tissue imaging. Moreover, to address challenges like tissue autofluorescence in real-time fluorescence imaging, afterglow luminescent nanoparticles are being developed by integrating these alternative energy sources for real-time imaging and sensing in deep tissue for precise cancer diagnosis and treatment beyond superficial tissues. In addition to deep tissue imaging, light-responsive nanomedicines are revolutionizing anticancer and antimicrobial phototherapy by enabling spatially and temporally controlled drug release. These smart nanoparticles are engineered to release therapeutic cargo at target sites in response to microenvironmental cues specific to tumors or infections. In anticancer phototherapy, these nanoparticles facilitate controlled drug release via photoisomerization, photothermal, and photodynamic processes. To enhance circulation time and specific targeting, biomimetic nanoparticles, which mimic natural anti-tumor responses by our body, have attracted increasing attention. In antimicrobial phototherapy, research has been focused on the chemical modification of the photosensitizer to enable targeted drug delivery. An intriguing strategy has recently emerged involving the development of “pro-photosensitizers” that are specifically activated within bacterial cells upon light irradiation, offering a high margin of safety. These advancements leverage photochemical reactions and nanotechnology to enhance precision therapy and diagnosis in addressing critical health challenges.

Microalgae present a novel and multifaceted approach to cancer therapy by modulating the tumor-associated microbiome (TAM) and the tumor microenvironment (TME). Through their ability to restore gut microbiota balance, reduce inflammation, and enhance immune responses, microalgae contribute to improved cancer treatment outcomes. As photosynthetic microorganisms, microalgae exhibit inherent anti-tumor, antioxidant, and immune-regulating properties, making them valuable in photodynamic therapy and tumor imaging due to their capacity to generate reactive oxygen species. Additionally, microalgae serve as effective drug delivery vehicles, leveraging their biocompatibility and unique structural properties to target the TME more precisely. Microalgae-based microrobots further expand their therapeutic potential by autonomously navigating complex biological environments, offering a promising future for precision-targeted cancer treatments. We position microalgae as a multifunctional agent capable of modulating TAM, offering novel strategies to enhance TME and improve the efficacy of cancer therapies.
