Abstract

Controlling the growth of bacterial biofilms in a specific pattern greatly enhances the study of cell‐to‐cell interactions and paves the way for expanding their biological applications. However, the development of simple, cost‐effective, and highly resolved biopatterning approaches remains a persistent challenge. Herein, a pioneering photodynamic biopatterning technique for the creation of living bacterial biofilms with customized geometries at high resolutions is presented. First of all, an outstanding aggregation‐induced emission photosensitizer is synthesized to enable efficient photodynamic bacterial killing at a low concentration. By combining with custom‐designed photomasks featuring both opaque and transparent patterns, the viability of photosensitizer‐coated bacteria is successfully manipulated by controlling the degree of light transmittance. This process leads to the formation of living bacterial biofilms with specific patterns replicated from the photomask. Such an innovative strategy can be employed to generate living bacterial biofilms composed of either mono‐ or multispecies, with a spatial resolution of approximately 24 µm. Furthermore, its potential applications in information storage/encryption and antibiotic screening are explored. This study provides an alternative way to understand and investigate the intricate interactions among bacteria within 3D biofilms, holding great promise in the controlled fabrication of dynamic biological systems for advanced applications.

40. In Vivo Self-Sorting of Peptides via In SituAssembly Evolution

Abstract

Despite significant progress achieved in artificial self-sorting in solution, operating self-sorting in the body remains a considerable challenge. Here, we report an in vivo self-sorting peptide system via an in situ assembly evolution for combined cancer therapy. The peptide E3C16-SS-EIYconsists of two disulfide-connected segments, E3C16SHand SHEIY, capable of independent assembly into twisted or flat nanoribbons. While E3C16-SS-EIYassembles into nanorods, exposure to glutathione (GSH) leads to the conversion of the peptide into E3C16SHand SHEIY, thus promoting in situ evolution from the nanorods into self-sorted nanoribbons. Furthermore, incorporation of two ligand moieties targeting antiapoptotic protein XIAP and organellar endoplasmic reticulum (ER) into the self-sorted nanoribbons allows for simultaneous inhibition of XIAP and accumulation surrounding ER. This leads to the cytotoxicity toward the cancer cells with elevated GSH levels, through activating caspase-dependent apoptosis and inducing ER dysfunction. In vivo self-sorting of E3C16-SS-EIYdecorated with ligand moieties is thoroughly validated by tissue studies. Tumor-bearing mouse experiments confirm the therapeutic efficacy of the self-sorted assemblies for inhibiting tumor growth, with excellent biosafety. Our findings demonstrate an efficient approach to develop in vivo self-sorting systems and thereby facilitating in situ formulation of biomedical agents.

Abstract

Simultaneous delivery of multiple genes and proteins (e.g., transcription factors; TFs) is an emerging issue surrounding therapeutic research due to their ability to regulate cellular circuitry. Current gene and protein delivery strategies, however, are based on slow batch synthesis, which is ineffective, poorly controlled, and incapable of simultaneous delivery of both genes and proteins with synergistic functions. Consequently, advances in this field have been limited to in vitro studies. Here, by integrating microfluidic technologies with a supramolecular synthetic strategy, we present a high-throughput approach for formulating and screening multifunctional supramolecular nanoparticles (MFSNPs) self-assembled from a collection of functional modules to achieve simultaneous delivery of one gene and TF with unprecedented efficiency both in vitro and in vivo. We envision that this new approach could open a new avenue for immunotherapy, stem cell reprogramming, and other therapeutic applications.
