Cancer represents a major worldwide disease burden marked by escalating incidence and mortality. While therapeutic advances persist, developing safer and precisely targeted modalities remains imperative. Nanomedicines emerges as a transformative paradigm leveraging distinctive physicochemical properties to achieve tumor-specific drug delivery, controlled release, and tumor microenvironment modulation. By synergizing passive enhanced permeation and retention effect-driven accumulation and active ligand-mediated targeting, nanoplatforms enhance pharmacokinetics, promote tumor microenvironment enrichment, and improve cellular internalization while mitigating systemic toxicity. Despite revolutionizing cancer therapy through enhanced treatment efficacy and reduced adverse effects, translational challenges persist in manufacturing scalability, longterm biosafety, and cost-efficiency. This review systematically analyzes cutting-edge nanoplatforms, including polymeric, lipidic, biomimetic, albumin-based, peptide engineered, DNA origami, and inorganic nanocarriers, while evaluating their strategic advantages and technical limitations across three therapeutic domains: immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. By assessing structure-function correlations and clinical translation barriers, this work establishes mechanistic and translational references to advance oncological nanomedicine development.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic performance of 64Cu-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-Q compared with 18F-FDG in patients with advanced prostate cancer and to analyze the radiation dosimetry of 64Cu-PSMA-Q. Methods:This study was an open-label, single-arm, self-controlled diagnostic evaluation trial. A total of 29 patients (age 58-87 years) with pathologically confirmed advanced prostate cancer in the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from September 2023 to December 2023 were included. All patients underwent both 64Cu-PSMA-Q PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT examinations. McNemar test was used to compare the detection rates of 64Cu-PSMA-Q PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT for primary lesions, lymph node metastases, and bone metastases. Mann-Whitney U test was applied to compare differences in SUV max and tumor-to-background ratio (TBR) between 64Cu-PSMA-Q PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT. Radiation dosimetry of 64Cu-PSMA-Q PET/CT imaging was performed using OLINDA/EXM 2.1 (adult male model) in 9 patients. Results:Primary lesions were detected in 21 patients. 64Cu-PSMA-Q PET/CT demonstrated a detection rate of 95.2%(20/21) for primary lesions, which was significantly higher than that of 18F-FDG PET/CT (66.7%(14/21); χ2=6.00, P=0.031). Detection rates of lymph node metastases were 65.5%(19/29) for 64Cu-PSMA-Q and 55.2%(16/29) for 18F-FDG, with no significant difference ( χ2=3.00, P=0.250). Similarly, detection rates of bone metastases were 72.4%(21/29) for 64Cu-PSMA-Q and 65.5%(19/29) for 18F-FDG respectively ( χ2=2.00, P=0.500). TBRs on 64Cu-PSMA-Q PET/CT were significantly higher than those on 18F-FDG PET/CT across primary lesions (8.3(2.2, 13.3) vs 2.3(1.0, 5.5); Z=7.16, P=0.002), regional lymph node metastases (4.9(1.4, 8.3) vs 1.7(0.9, 4.0), Z=189.34, P=0.001), and bone metastases (18.7(4.5, 26.9) vs 5.1(2.1, 9.7); Z=24.83, P=0.003). No significant difference in TBR was observed for distant lymph node metastases ( Z=1.49, P=0.135) or benign lesions ( Z=0.91, P=0.558). The whole-body effective dose of 64Cu-PSMA-Q was (28.200±1.590)μSv/MBq among the 9 patients analyzed, with no adverse events related to the tracer observed. Conclusion:64Cu-PSMA-Q is a promising novel PET imaging agent with potential clinical utility for diagnosing prostate cancer and supporting clinical decision-making.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 1 (PTPN1) gene polymorphism and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:In this case-control study, 4 835 pregnant women who delivered from March, 2012 to July, 2014 in the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were consecutively enrolled. Among them, 789 cases were diagnosed with GDM. A simple random sampling method was used to select 334 pregnant women with GDM as the case group, and 334 healthy pregnant women matched by maternal age, gestation time and residence were set as control. The DNA genotyping was performed in the subjects, and those with genotyping deletions10% were excluded; and finally, 322 and 317 subjects were included in case and control group, respectively. Under the codominant, dominant, recessive, and allelic genetic models, the unconditional logistic regression model was used to check the relationship between 13 candidate single nucleotide polymorphism (snp) loci in PTPN1 gene and the risk of GDM. The Haploview was used to analyze the relationship between haplotypes and risk of GDM, and multiple comparisons were adjusted with the false discovery rate (FDR) method.Results:The age of the 639 pregnant women analyzed in this study was (30.28±4.32) years. The proportions of pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI)≥24.0 kg/m 2 and having a family history of diabetes were significantly higher in the GDM group compared to those in the control group (29.19% vs 16.72% and 13.04% vs 6.31%, respectively, both P0.05). The rs6096644 locus was positively associated with increased risk of GDM in co-dominant (GG vs AA, OR=2.76, 95% CI: 1.18-6.44) and recessive (GG vs AA+AG, OR=2.78, 95% CI: 1.20-6.46) genetic models (all q0.2). The rs6096655 locus was positively associated with increased risk of GDM in codominant (AA vs GG, OR=5.90, 95% CI: 1.27-27.36) and recessive (AA vs GG+GA, OR=5.50, 95% CI: 1.19-25.38) and alleles (A vs G, OR=1.51, 95% CI: 1.09-2.08) genetic models (all q0.2). The rs6013317 locus was associated with an increased risk of GDM in the allele (A vs G, OR=1.74, 95% CI: 1.15-2.63) genetic model (all q0.2). The GAGG haplotype and GGAG haplotype in haplotype block 1 (rs4811262, rs6096646, rs6096655, rs6013317), and the GGGA haplotype in haplotype block 2 (rs6068018, rs6123105, rs6013324, rs2869621) of the PTPN1 gene were all positively associated with an increased risk of GDM (all P0.05). Conclusion:PTPN1 gene polymorphisms may associated with risk of GDM, moreover, complex haplotype structures within the gene influence the risk of GDM.

Transarterial radioembolization (TARE) is a widely utilized therapeutic approach for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), however, the clinical implementation is constrained by the stringent preparation conditions of radioembolization agents. Herein, we incorporated the superstable homogeneous iodinated formulation technology (SHIFT), simultaneously utilizing an enhanced solvent form in a carbon dioxide supercritical fluid environment, to encapsulate radionuclides (such as 131I,177Lu, or 18F) with lipiodol for the preparation of radiolipiodol. The resulting radiolipiodol exhibited exceptional stability and ultra-high labeling efficiency (≥99%) and displayed notable intratumoral radionuclide retention and in vivo stability more than 2 weeks following locoregional injection in subcutaneous tumors in mice and orthotopic liver tumors in rats and rabbits. Given these encouraging findings, 18F was authorized as a radiotracer in radiolipiodol for clinical trials in HCC patients, and showed a favorable tumor accumulation, with a tumor-to-liver uptake ratio of ≥50 and minimal radionuclide leakage, confirming the feasibility of SHIFT for TARE applications. In the context of transforming from preclinical to clinical screening, the preparation of radiolipiodol by SHIFT represents an innovative physical strategy for radionuclide encapsulation. Hence, this work offers a reliable and efficient approach for TARE in HCC, showing considerable promise for clinical application (ChiCTR2400087731).
