Abstract
Intracellular pathogens are a critical challenge for antimicrobial therapies. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) causes approximately 85% of all skin and soft tissue infections in humans worldwide and more than 30% of patients develop chronic or recurrent infections within three months, even after appropriate antibacterial therapies. S. aureus is also one of the most common bacteria found in chronic wounds. Recent evidences suggest that S. aureus is able to persist within phagolysosomes of skin cells (i.e. keratinocytes, phagocytic cells), being protected from both the immune system and a number of antimicrobials. To overcome these limits, nano-formulations that enable targeted therapies against intracellular S. aureus might be developed. Herein, the biodistribution and intracellular localisation of hyaluronan (HA) and HA-based nanoparticles (nanogels, NHs) are investigated, both after intravenous (i.v.) injections (in mice) and topical administrations (in ex vivo human skin). Results indicate HA and NHs accumulate especially in skin and liver of mice after i.v. injection. After topical application on human skin explants, no penetration of both HA and NHs was detected in skin with intact stratum corneum. By contrast, in barrier-disrupted human skin (with partial removal and loosening of stratum corneum), HA and NHs penetrate to the viable epidermis and are taken up by keratinocytes. In mechanically produced wounds (skin without epidermis) they accumulate in wound tissue and are taken up by dermis cells, e.g. fibroblasts and phagocytic cells. Interestingly, in all cases, the cellular uptake is CD44-mediated. In vitro studies confirmed that after CD44-mediated uptake, both HA and NHs accumulate in lysosomes of dermal fibroblasts and macrophages, as previously reported for keratinocytes. Finally, the colocalisation between intracellular S. aureus and HA or NHs is demonstrated, in macrophages. Altogether, for the first time, these results strongly suggest that HA and HA-based NHs can provide a targeted therapy to intracellular S. aureus, in persistent skin or wound infections.

Abstract
Hyaluronan (HA) is among the most used biopolymers for viscosupplementation and dermocosmetics. However, the current injectable HA-based formulations present relevant limitations: I) unmodified HA is quickly degraded by endogenous hyaluronidases (HAase), resulting in short lasting properties; II) cross-linked HA, although shows enhanced stability against HAase, often contains toxic chemical cross-linkers. As such, herein, we present biocompatible self-assembled hyaluronan-cholesterol nanohydrogels (HA-CH NHs) able to bind to HAase and inhibit the enzyme activity in vitro, more efficiently than currently marketed HA-based cross-linked formulations (e.g. Jonexa™). HA-CH NHs inhibit HAase through a mixed mechanism, by which NHs bind to HAase with an affinity constant 7-fold higher than that of native HA. Similar NHs, based on gellan-CH, evidenced no binding to HAase, neither inhibition of the enzyme activity, suggesting this effect might be due to the specific binding of HA-CH to the active site of the enzyme. Therefore, HA-CH NHs were engineered into injectable hybrid HA mixtures or physical hydrogels, able to halt the enzymatic degradation of HA.

Abstract
Etizolam is a drug from the thienotriazoldiazepine class, widely prescribed as anxiolytic due to its apparently secure toxicological profile. Nevertheless, some recent cases of etizolam dependence, intoxications and fatalities associated to its abuse have been reported in the international literature. For this reason, the drug listed as new psychoactive substance (NPS) by the World Health Organization (WHO) since 2015. Euphoric effect at high dosage is the first cause of its recreational use that has determined a wider distribution in the illicit market. An experimental study was performed to obtain evidence that etizolam at low therapeutic dosages is a drug with negligible influence on the psychomotor performances involved in driving. The psychomotor performance was assessed by performing different tests, such as critical tracking task (CTT), critical flicker fusion (CFF), choice reaction time (CRT), visual vigilance task (VVT), response competition test (RCT) in a group of 16 healthy volunteers after a single administration of etizolam at two different dosages (0.25 mg or 1.00 mg) in comparison to placebo. The test results showed that etizolam at 0.25 mg and 1.00 mg had no significant effect on vigilance, short term memory, psychomotor coordination or speed in decision making. Differently, abuse of etizolam to obtain the euphoric effects at presumably high dosages or in combination with other psychoactive substances could be fatal. The negligible side effects on mental and behavioral function demonstrated by this study, could represent an incitement to abuse, which can be strongly discouraged with correct information on differences between its correct use and its misuse.
