[PMID: 35643074 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2022.113126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2022] [Revised: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of more than 100 types of arthritis. This chronic autoimmune disorder affects the lining of synovial joints in about 0.5% of people and may induce severe joints deformity and disability. RA impacts health life of people from all sexes and ages with more prevalence in elderly and women people. Significant improvement has been noted in the last two decades revealing the mechanisms of the development of RA, the improvement of the early diagnosis and the development of new treatment options. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, and disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) remain the most known treatments used against RA. However, not all patients respond well to these drugs and therefore, new solutions are of immense need to improve the disease outcomes. In the present review, we discuss and highlight the recent findings concerning the different classes of RA therapies including the conventional and modern drug therapies, as well as the recent emerging options including the phyto-cannabinoid and cell- and RNA-based therapies. A better understanding of their mechanisms and pathways might help find a specific target against inflammation, cartilage damage, and reduce side effects in arthritis.

Chitosan-based biomaterials for the treatment of bone disorders. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 215:346-367. [PMID: 35718150 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.06.079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Revised: 06/06/2022] [Accepted: 06/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Bone is an alive and dynamic organ that is well-differentiated and originated from mesenchymal tissues. Bone undergoes continuous remodeling during the lifetime of an individual. Although knowledge regarding bones and their disorders has been constantly growing, much attention has been devoted to effective treatments that can be used, both from materials and medical performance points of view. Polymers derived from natural sources, for example polysaccharides, are generally biocompatible and are therefore considered excellent candidates for various biomedical applications. This review outlines the development of chitosan-based biomaterials for the treatment of bone disorders including bone fracture, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, arthritis rheumatoid, and osteosarcoma. Different examples of chitosan-based formulations in the form of gels, micro/nanoparticles, and films are discussed herein. The work also reviews recent patents and important developments related to the use of chitosan in the treatment of bone disorders. Although most of the cited research was accomplished before reaching the clinical application level, this manuscript summarizes the latest achievements within chitosan-based biomaterials used for the treatment of bone disorders and provides perspectives for future scientific activities.

Abstract
Nanomaterials' unique structures at the nanometer level determine their incredible functions, and based on this, they can be widely used in the field of nanomedicine. However, nanomaterials do possess disadvantages that cannot be ignored, such as burst release, rapid elimination, and poor bioadhesion. Hydrogels are scaffolds with three‐dimensional structures, and they exhibit good biocompatibility and drug release capacity. Hydrogels are also associated with disadvantages for biomedical applications such as poor anti‐tumor capability, weak bioimaging capability, limited responsiveness, and so on. Incorporating nanomaterials into the 3D hydrogel network through physical or chemical covalent action may be an effective method to avoid their disadvantages. In nanocomposite hydrogel systems, multifunctional nanomaterials often work as the function core, giving the hydrogels a variety of properties (such as photo‐thermal conversion, magnetothermal conversion, conductivity, targeting tumor, etc.). While, hydrogels can effectively improve the retention effect of nanomaterials and make the nanoparticles have good plasticity to adapt to various biomedical applications (such as various biosensors). Nanocomposite hydrogel systems have broad application prospects in biomedicine. In this review, we comprehensively summarize and discuss the most recent advances of nanomaterials composite hydrogels in biomedicine, including drug and cell delivery, cancer treatment, tissue regeneration, biosensing, and bioimaging, and we also briefly discussed the current situation of their commoditization in biomedicine.

Abstract
Background Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels loaded with stem cells have proved to be an effective clinical treatment for wound healing. Advanced glycation end product (AGE), interacting with its particular receptor (AGER), gives rise to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis. Curcumin (Cur) has excellent antioxidant activity and regulates intracellular ROS production and apoptosis. In this study, we developed a Cur-incorporated 3D-printed GelMA to insert into adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and applied it to diabetic wounds. Methods GelMA hydrogels with Cur were fabricated and their in vitro effects on ADSCs were investigated. We used structural characterization, western blot, ROS and apoptosis assay to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-apoptotic activity, and assessed the wound healing effects to investigate the mechanism underlying regulation of apoptosis by Cur via the AGE/AGER/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p65 pathway. Results A 10% GelMA scaffold exhibited appropriate mechanical properties and biocompatibility for ADSCs. The circular mesh structure demonstrated printability of 10% GelMA and Cur-GelMA bioinks. The incorporation of Cur into the 10% GelMA hydrogel showed an inhibitory effect on AGEs/AGER/NF-κB p65-induced ROS generation and ADSC apoptosis. Furthermore, Cur-GelMA scaffold promoted cell survival and expedited in vivo diabetic wound healing. Conclusions The incorporation of Cur improved the antioxidant activity of 3D-printed GelMA hydrogel and mitigated AGE/AGER/p65 axis-induced ROS and apoptosis in ADSCs. The effects of scaffolds on wound healing suggested that Cur/GelMA-ADSC hydrogel could be an effective biological material for accelerating wound healing.

Abstract
The emergence of CRISPR/Cas technology has enabled scientists to precisely edit genomic DNA sequences. This approach can be used to modulate gene expression for the treatment of genetic disorders and incurable diseases such as cancer. This potent genome-editing tool is based on a single guide RNA (sgRNA) strand that recognizes the targeted DNA, plus a Cas nuclease protein for binding and processing the target. CRISPR/Cas has great potential for editing many genes in different types of cells and organisms both in vitro and in vivo. Despite these remarkable advances, the risk of off-target effects has hindered the translation of CRISPR/Cas technology into clinical applications. To overcome this hurdle, researchers have devised gene regulatory systems that can be controlled in a spatiotemporal manner, by designing special sgRNA, Cas, and CRISPR/Cas delivery vehicles that are responsive to different stimuli, such as temperature, light, magnetic fields, ultrasound (US), pH, redox, and enzymatic activity. These systems can even respond to dual or multiple stimuli simultaneously, thereby providing superior spatial and temporal control over CRISPR/Cas gene editing. Herein, we summarize the latest advances on smart sgRNA, Cas, and CRISPR/Cas nanocarriers, categorized according to their stimulus type (physical, chemical, or biological).

Abstract
Cutaneous wound healing, especially diabetic wound healing, is a common clinical challenge. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and bacterial infection are two major detrimental states that induce oxidative stress and inflammatory responses and impede angiogenesis and wound healing. A derivative of the metabolite itaconate, 4-octyl itaconate (4OI) has attracted increasing research interest in recent years due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, 4OI-modified black phosphorus (BP) nanosheets are incorporated into a photosensitive, multifunctional gelatin methacrylamide hydrogel to produce a new photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) system with antibacterial and antioxidant properties for diabetic wound regeneration. Under laser irradiation, the 4OI-BP-entrapped hydrogel enables rapid gelation, forming a membrane on wounds, and offers high PTT and PDT efficacy to eliminate bacterial infection. Without laser irradiation, BP acts as a carrier and controls the release of 4OI, with which it synergistically enhances antioxidant activity, thus alleviating excessive ROS damage to endothelial cells, promoting neovascularization, and facilitating faster diabetic wound closure. These findings indicate that 4OI-BP-entrapped multifunctional hydrogel provides a stepwise countermeasure with antibacterial and antioxidant properties for enhanced diabetic wound healing and may lead to novel therapeutic interventions for diabetic ulcers.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease underlying a cascade of chronic inflammatory processes. Over the past decades, the response rate of effective RA treatments has remained scarce despite numerous advancements in the current therapeutic interventions, owing largely to the associated off-target adverse events and poor accumulation in the inflamed joints. Recently, there is a high interest in the development of targeted drug delivery system by using nanotechnology, as it can provide a handle to improve the therapy efficacy of RA. Here, multifunctional HA@RFM@PB@SE nanoparticles (HRPS NPs) are developed by loading schisanlactone E (SE, also called with xuetongsu), an anti-RA compound isolated from Tujia ethnomedicine xuetong, into Prussian blue nanoparticles (PB NPs) and further camouflage of RBC-RAFLS hybrid membrane with HA modification onto PB@SE NPs (PS NPs). We demonstrated that the modification of RFM makes PB NPs ideal decoys for targeting inflammatory mediators of arthritis due to the homing effects of the parental cells. Moreover, the encapsulation of RFM on the PB@SE NPs extended the blood circulation time and improved its targeting ability, which accordingly achieved optimal accumulation of SE in arthritic rat paws. In vitro and in vivo assay demonstrated the outstanding performance of HRPS NPs for synergistic chemo-/photothermal therapy of RA without side effects to healthy tissues. Molecular mechanism exploration indicated that the ultrastrong inhibition of synovial hyperplasia and bone destruction was partly via suppressing NF-κB signaling pathway and the expression of matrix metalloproteinases. In summary, the nanodrug delivery system showed controllable release behavior, targeted accumulation at arthritic sites and systemic regulation of immunity, hence improved therapeutic efficacy and clinical outcomes of the disease without attenuating safety.

Abstract
Dynamic drug delivery systems (DDSs) have the ability of transforming their morphology and functionality in response to the biological microenvironments at the disease site and/or external stimuli, show spatio-temporally controllable drug delivery, and enhance the treatment efficacy. Due to the large surface area and modification flexibility, two-dimensional (2D) inorganic nanomaterials are being increasingly exploited for developing intelligent DDSs for biomedical applications. In this review, we summarize the engineering methodologies used to construct transformable 2D DDSs, including changing compositions, creating defects, and surface dot-coating with polymers, biomolecules, or nanodots. Then we present and discuss dynamic inorganic 2D DDSs whose transformation is driven by the diseased characteristics, such as pH gradient, redox, hypoxia, and enzyme in the tumor microenvironment as well as the external stimuli including light, magnetism, and ultrasound. Finally, the limitations and challenges of current transformable inorganic DDSs for clinical translation and their in vivo safety assessment are discussed.

Abstract
Absorbent polymers or hydrogel polymer materials have an enhanced water retention capacity and are widely used in agriculture and medicine. The controlled release of bioactive molecules (especially drug proteins) by hydrogels and the encapsulation of living cells are some of the active areas of drug discovery research. Hydrogel-based delivery systems may result in a therapeutically advantageous outcome for drug delivery. They can provide various sequential therapeutic agents including macromolecular drugs, small molecule drugs, and cells to control the release of molecules. Due to their controllable degradability, ability to protect unstable drugs from degradation and flexible physical properties, hydrogels can be used as a platform in which various chemical and physical interactions with encapsulated drugs for controlled release in the system can be studied. Practically, hydrogels that possess biodegradable properties have aroused greater interest in drug delivery systems. The original three-dimensional structure gets broken down into non-toxic substances, thus confirming the excellent biocompatibility of the gel. Chemical crosslinking is a resource-rich method for forming hydrogels with excellent mechanical strength. But in some cases the crosslinker used in the synthesis of the hydrogels may cause some toxicity. However, the physically cross-linked hydrogel preparative method is an alternative solution to overcome the toxicity of cross-linkers. Hydrogels that are responsive to stimuli formed from various natural and synthetic polymers can show significant changes in their properties under external stimuli such as temperature, pH, light, ion changes, and redox potential. Stimulus-responsive hydrogels have a wider range of applications in biomedicine including drug delivery, gene delivery and tissue regeneration. Stimulus-responsive hydrogels loaded with multiple drugs show controlled and sustained drug release and can act as drug carriers. By integrating stimulus-responsive hydrogels, such as those with improved thermal responsiveness, pH responsiveness and dual responsiveness, into textile materials, advanced functions can be imparted to the textile materials, thereby improving the moisture and water retention performance, environmental responsiveness, aesthetic appeal, display and comfort of textiles. This review explores the stimuli-responsive hydrogels in drug delivery systems and examines super adsorbent hydrogels and their application in the field of agriculture.

Abstract
The treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been closely evolving with an understanding of disease pathogenesis with disease modifying anti-rheumatoid drugs (DMARDS) and Biologic DMARDS being the main stay. platelet rich plasma (PRP) has been the center of research in many specialties in the past decade. Its ability to stop and reverse inflammation have attracted researchers to try PRP in RA. A systematic review of studies on PRP in RA is lacking. The study protocol was prospectively registered in PROSPERO. Detailed search of Cochrane, Scopus, Medline, Embase, and Web of science databases were made to identify the relevant articles till Sep 2020 following Cochrane and PRISMA guidelines. Number of subjects, Animal model used, cell lines used for the study, method of induction of arthritis, PRP dose, concentration used, frequency of administration and clinical, histologic, and molecular changes from baseline following PRP use were extracted and analysed. Eight studies were included for the review. Four of these were in-vitro studies. Two were exclusive animal studies. One study analysed the effects of PRP in RA in both animal models (mice) and Hela cell lines. One study was a report of a series of patients of resistant RA treated with PRP. In the in vitro studies while platelets increase the migration and invasion of RA-FLS, they suppressed the inflammation on the whole. Available animal studies and the Human study have shown encouraging results. There has been no evidence of exacerbation of inflammation in these studies. The quantity and quality of literature on the effects of PRP in treating joint pathologies in RA is limited. Preclinical studies show decrease in disease activity with good safety profile. Invitro studies show suppression of inflammation. Thus, the available literature is encouraging towards the use of PRP in RA. Larger trials and molecular studies to understand the exact role of platelets in disease pathogenesis and treatment mechanisms are needed to decide the future course of PRP in RA.

Abstract
Effective osteogenesis remains a challenge in the treatment of bone defects. The emergence of artificial bone scaffolds provides an attractive solution. In this work, a new biomineralization strategy is proposed to facilitate osteogenesis through sustaining supply of nutrients including phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), and silicon (Si). We developed black phosphorus (BP)-based, three-dimensional nanocomposite fibrous scaffolds via microfluidic technology to provide a wealth of essential ions for bone defect treatment. The fibrous scaffolds were fabricated from 3D poly (l-lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofibers (3D NFs), BP nanosheets, and hydroxyapatite (HA)-porous SiO2 nanoparticles. The 3D BP@HA NFs possess three advantages: i) stably connected pores allow the easy entrance of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) into the interior of the 3D fibrous scaffolds for bone repair and osteogenesis; ii) plentiful nutrients in the NFs strongly improve osteogenic differentiation in the bone repair area; iii) the photothermal effect of fibrous scaffolds promotes the release of elements necessary for bone formation, thus achieving accelerated osteogenesis. Both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrated that the 3D BP@HA NFs, with the assistance of NIR laser, exhibited good performance in promoting bone regeneration. Furthermore, microfluidic technology makes it possible to obtain high-quality 3D BP@HA NFs with low costs, rapid processing, high throughput and mass production, greatly improving the prospects for clinical application. This is also the first BP-based bone scaffold platform that can self-supply Ca2+, which may be the blessedness for older patients with bone defects or patients with damaged bones as a result of calcium loss.

Abstract
To date, nanotechnology has increasingly been identified as a promising and efficient means to address a number of challenges associated with public health. In the past decade, two-dimensional (2D) biomaterials, as a unique nanoplatform with planar topology, have attracted explosive interest in various fields such as biomedicine due to their unique morphology, physicochemical properties and biological effect. Motivated by the progress of graphene in biomedicine, dozens of types of ultrathin 2D biomaterials have found versatile bio-applications, including biosensing, biomedical imaging, delivery of therapeutic agents, cancer theranostics, tissue engineering, as well as others. The effective utilization of 2D biomaterials stems from the in-depth knowledge of structure-property-bioactivity-biosafety-application-performance relationships. A comprehensive summary of 2D biomaterials for biomedicine is still lacking. In this comprehensive review, we aim to concentrate on the state-of-the-art 2D biomaterials with a particular focus on their versatile biomedical applications. In particular, we discuss the design, fabrication and functionalization of 2D biomaterials used for diverse biomedical applications based on the up-to-date progress. Furthermore, the interactions between 2D biomaterials and biological systems on the spatial-temporal scale are highlighted, which will deepen the understanding of the underlying action mechanism of 2D biomaterials aiding their design with improved functionalities. Finally, taking the bench-to-bedside as a focus, we conclude this review by proposing the current crucial issues/challenges and presenting the future development directions to advance the clinical translation of these emerging 2D biomaterials.

Abstract
Transplanting stem cells with the abilities of self-renewal and differentiation is one of the most effective ways to treat many diseases. In order to optimize the therapeutic effect of stem cell transplantation, it is necessary to intervene in stem cell differentiation. Inorganic nanomaterials (NMs), due to their unique physical and chemical properties, can affect the adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation of stem cells. In addition, inorganic NMs have huge specific surface area and modifiability that can be used as vectors to transport plasmids, proteins or small molecules to further interfere with the fate of stem cells. In this mini review, we summarized the recent advances of common inorganic NMs in regulating stem cells differentiation, and the effects of the stiffness, size and shape of inorganic NMs on stem cell behavior were discussed. In addition, we further analyzed the existing obstacles and corresponding perspectives of the application of inorganic NMs in the field of stem cells.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease that is prevalent worldwide and seriously threatens human health. Though traditional drug therapy can alleviate RA symptoms and slow progression, high dosage and frequent administration would cause unfavorable side effects. Phototherapy including photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) has demonstrated distinctive potential in RA treatment. Under light irradiation, phototherapy can convert light into heat, or generate ROS, to promote necrosis or apoptosis of RA inflammatory cells, thus reducing the concentration of related inflammatory factors and relieving the symptoms of RA. In this review, we will summarize the development in the application of phototherapy in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
As a biodegradable material, black phosphorus (BP) has been considered as an efficient agent for cancer photothermal therapy. However, its systemic delivery faces several hurdles, including rapid degradation in blood circulation, quick clearance by the immune system, and low delivery sufficiency to the tumor site. Here, we developed a biomimetic nanoparticle platform for in vivo tumor-targeted delivery of BP nanosheets (BP NSs). Through a biomimetic strategy, BP NSs were utilized to coordinate with the active species of oxaliplatin (1,2-diaminocyclohexane) platinum (II) (DACHPt) complexions, and the nanoparticles were further camouflaged with mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)–derived membranes. We showed that the incorporation of DACHPt not only decelerated the BP degradation but also enhanced the antitumor effect by combining the photothermal effect with chemotoxicity. Furthermore, MSC membrane coating increased the stability, dispersibility, and tumor-targeting properties of BP/DACHPt, significantly improving the antitumor efficacy. In short, our work not only provided a new strategy for in vivo tumor-targeted delivery of BP NSs but also obtained an enhanced antitumor effect by combining photothermal therapy with chemotherapy.

Abstract
As a newly emerged mono-elemental nanomaterial, black phosphorus (BP) has been widely investigated for its fascinating physical properties, including layer-dependent tunable band gap (0.3-1.5 eV), high ON/OFF ratio (104 ), high carrier mobility (103 cm2 V-1 s-1 ), excellent mechanical resistance, as well as special in-plane anisotropic optical, thermal, and vibrational characteristics. However, the instability caused by chemical degradation of its surface has posed a severe challenge for its further applications. A focused BP/polymer strategy has more recently been developed and implemented to hurdle this issue, so at present BP/polymers have been developed that exhibit enhanced stability, as well as outstanding optical, thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. This has promoted researchers to further explore the potential applications of black phosphorous. In this review, the preparation processes and the key properties of BP/polymers are reviewed, followed by a detailed account of their diversified applications, including areas like optoelectronics, bio-medicine, and energy storage. Finally, in accordance with the current progress, the prospective challenges and future directions are highlighted and discussed.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic autoimmune disease that results from synovial hyperplasia. The hyperplasia of synovium directly degrades cartilage by secreting matrix-degrading enzymes and inducing cartilage degradation and even loss of joint function. In this study, a metal/semiconductor composite, octahedral copper sulfide shell, and gold nanorod core (Au NR@CuS) is designed for, photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), and chemotherapy (CT) combination therapy for RA to remove hyperplasia of the synovium. Upon laser irradiation, the coupling of the local surface electromagnetic field improves the electromagnetic field of the Au NR core and the absorption of light of the CuS shell, whereby the photothermal effect is enhanced. Due to the Fenton-like reactions and the integration of Au NR and CuS semiconductor photocatalyst inhibits hole recombination and provides a reaction site for photocatalysis, which introduces additional •OH to photodynamics therapy. In addition, the large octahedral void space in Au NR@CuS NPs can be used for loading a high quantity of drugs for chemotherapy, and modified with vasoactive intestinal peptide and hyaluronic acid (HA) formation VIP-HA-Au NR@CuS NPs to target synovial cells in RA. Under combination therapy, VIP-HA-Au NR@CuS NPs were shown to effectively inhibit the synovial cells and the edema degree of the CIA mouse was alleviated apparently. Both in vitro and in vivo studies indicate that the VIP-HA-Au NR@CuS NPs can provide a potential possibility for the treatment of RA.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has evolved as an essential method for infection control, but is confronted with challenges in terms of low oxygen supply, possible toxicity during light irradiation, and nonpersistent action. Herein, to address these limitations, black phosphorus (BP) is used as a photosensitizer and decorated with Pt nanoparticles and aminobenzyl-2-pyridone (APy) moieties to obtain BP@APy-Pt. The stability of BP is improved through the capture and occupation of lone-pair electrons after reductive deposition of Pt nanoparticles and covalent conjugation of APy. Pt nanoparticles on BP@APy-Pt catalyze the decomposition of endogenous H2O2 to produce oxygen for consecutive cycles with a stable production capacity. The light exposure to BP@APy-Pt generates significantly higher 1O2 levels than those of BP/light, and the generated 1O2 is partially captured by APy moieties. The captured 1O2 during 20 min of illumination shows a constant release for 24 h in the dark. The cycled storage and release feature eliminates the toxicity of 1O2 at high levels during illumination and leads to efficient destruction of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa. Compared to the healing rates after treatment with BP/light (57.6%), BP@Pt/light (64.8%), BP@APy/light (77.8%), and BP@APy-Pt (48.5%), the skin wounds with infected S. aureus are fully healed after BP@APy-Pt/light treatment. Blood vessels and hair follicles are regenerated to resemble those of normal skin. Thus, this study expands the PDT strategy through integration with oxygen generation, 1O2 storage, and persistent release to promote bactericidal efficacy and eliminate side effects.

Abstract
This work proposes new methotrexate (MTX) loaded drug delivery systems (DDS) to treat rheumatoid arthritis via the intra-articular route: a poloxamer based thermosensitive hydrogel (MTX-HG), oligochitosan and hypromellose phthalate-based polyelectrolyte complexes (MTX-PEC) and their association (MTX-PEC-HG). MTX-PEC showed 470 ± 166 nm particle size, 0.298 ± 0.108 polydispersity index, +26 ± 2 mV and 74.3 ± 5.8% MTX efficiency entrapment and particle formation was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy and thermal analysis. MTX-HG and MTX-PEC-HG gelled at 36.7°C. MTX drug release profile was prolonged for MTX-HG and MTX-PEC-HG, and faster for MTX-PEC and free MTX. The in vivo effect of the MTX-DDSs systems was evaluated in induced arthritis rats as single intra-articular dose. The assessed parameters were the mechanical nociceptive threshold, the plasmatic IL-1β level and histological analysis of the tibiofemoral joint. MTX-HG and MTX-PEC-HG performance were similar to free MTX and worse than oral MTX, used as positive control. All DDSs showed some irritative effect, for which further studies are required. MTX-PEC was the best treatment on recovering cartilage damage and decreasing allodynia. Thus, MTX-PEC demonstrated potential to treat rheumatoid arthritis, with the possibility of decreasing the systemic exposure to the drug.

Abstract
Background Tacrolimus (TAC) is a powerful immunosuppressive agent whose therapeutic applicability is confined owing to its systemic side effects. Objective Herein, we harnessed a natural polymer based bioconjugate composed of maltodextrin and α-tocopherol (MD-α-TOC) to encapsulate TAC as an attempt to overcome its biological limitations while enhancing its therapeutic anti-rheumatic efficacy. Methods The designed TAC loaded maltodextrin-α-tocopherol nano-micelles (TAC@MD-α-TOC) were assessed for their physical properties, safety, toxicological behavior, their ability to combat arthritis and assist bone/cartilage formation. Results In vitro cell viability assay revealed enhanced safety profile of optimized TAC@MD-α-TOC with 1.6- to 2-fold increase in Vero cells viability compared with free TAC. Subacute toxicity study demonstrated a diminished nephro- and hepato-toxicity accompanied with optimized TAC@MD-α-TOC. TAC@MD-α-TOC also showed significantly enhanced anti-arthritic activity compared with free TAC, as reflected by improved clinical scores and decreased IL-6 and TNF-α levels in serum and synovial fluids. Unique bone formation criteria were proved with TAC@MD-α-TOC by elevated serum and synovial fluid levels of osteocalcin and osteopontin mRNA and proteins expression. Chondrogenic differentiation abilities of TAC@MD-α-TOC were proved by increased serum and synovial fluid levels of SOX9 mRNA and protein expression. Conclusion Overall, our designed bioconjugate micelles offered an excellent approach for improved TAC safety profile with enhanced anti-arthritic activity and unique bone formation characteristics.

Abstract
Photothermal treatment (PTT) is a promising strategy to deal with multidrug-resistant bacteria infection and promote tissue regeneration. Previous studies demonstrated that hyperthermia can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria, whereas mild heat can promote cell proliferation, further accelerating wound healing and bone regeneration. Especially, hydrogels with photothermal properties could achieve remotely controlled drug release. In this review, we introduce a photothermal agent hybrid in hydrogels for a photothermal effect. We also summarize the potential mechanisms of photothermal hydrogels regarding antibacterial action, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis. Furthermore, recent developments in photothermal hydrogels in wound healing and bone regeneration applications are introduced. Finally, future application of photothermal hydrogels is discussed. Hydrogels with photothermal effects provide a new direction for wound healing and bone regeneration, and this review will give a reference for the tissue engineering.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to develop an injectable form of decellularized bovine myocardial tissue matrix which could retain high levels of functional ECM molecules, and could gel at physiological temperature. Dissected ventricular tissue was processed by a detergent-based protocol, lyophilized, enzymatically-digested, and neutralized to form the injectable myocardial matrix (IMM). Histochemical analysis, DNA quantification, and agarose gel electrophoresis demonstrated the efficiency of the applied protocol. Chemical, thermal, morphological, and rheological characterization; protein and sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) content analysis were performed, in vitro biological properties were evaluated. An in vivo histocompatibility and biodegradability study was performed. Histochemistry revealed complete removal of myocardial cells. DNA content analysis revealed a significant decrease (87%) in the nuclear material, while protein and sGAG contents were highly preserved following decellularization. Soluble IMM was capable of turning into gel form at ∼37 °C, indicating selfassembling property. In vitro findings showed the biomaterial was noncytotoxic, nonhemolytic, and supported the attachment and proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells. In vivo study demonstrated IMM was well-tolerated by rats receiving subcutaneous injection. This work demonstrates that the IMM from decellularized bovine myocardial tissue has the potential for use as a feasible regenerative biomaterial in prospective tissue engineering and regenerative medicine studies.

Abstract
Cancer has been one of the major threats to the lives of human beings for centuries. Traditional therapy is more or less faced with certain defects, such as poor targeting, easy degradation, high side effects, etc. Therefore, in order to improve the treatment efficiency of drugs, an intelligent drug delivery system (DDS) is considered as a promising solution strategy. Due to their special structure and large specific surface area, 2D materials are considered to be a good platform for drug delivery. Black phosphorus (BP), as a new star of the 2D family, is recommended to have the potential to construct DDS by virtue of its outstanding photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), and biodegradable properties. This tutorial review is intended to provide an introduction of the current advances in BP-based DDSs for cancer therapy, which covers topics from its construction, classified by the types of platforms, to the stimuli-responsive controlled drug release. Moreover, their cancer therapy applications including mono-, bi-, and multi-modal synergistic cancer therapy as well as the research of biocompatibility are also discussed. Finally, the current status and future prospects of BP-based DDSs for cancer therapy are summarized.

Abstract
The complexity of hard-to-treat diseases strongly undermines the therapeutic potential of available treatment options. Therefore, a paradigm shift from monotherapy toward combination therapy has been observed in clinical research to improve the efficiency of available treatment options. The advantages of combination therapy include the possibility of synchronous alteration of different biological pathways, reducing the required effective therapeutic dose, reducing drug resistance, and lowering the overall costs of treatment. The tunable physical properties, excellent biocompatibility, facile preparation, and ease of administration with minimal invasiveness of injectable hydrogels (IHs) have made them excellent candidates to solve the clinical and pharmacological limitations of present systems for multitherapy by direct delivery of therapeutic payloads and improving therapeutic responses through the formation of depots containing drugs, genes, cells, or a combination of them in the body after a single injection. In this review, currently available methods for the design and fabrication of IHs are systematically discussed in the first section. Next, as a step toward establishing IHs for future multimodal synergistic therapies, recent advances in cancer combination therapy, wound healing, and tissue engineering are addressed in detail in the following sections. Finally, opportunities and challenges associated with IHs for multitherapy are listed and further discussed.

Abstract
Since its first clinical application, methotrexate (MTX) has been widely used for the treatment of human diseases. Despite great advantages, some properties such as poor absorption, short plasma half-life and unpredictable bioavailability have led researchers to seek novel delivery systems to improve its characteristics for parenteral and oral administration. Recently, great attention has been directed to hydrogels for the preparation of MTX formulations. This review describes the potential of hydrogels for the formulation of MTX to treat cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and central nervous system diseases. We will delineate the state-of-the-art and promising potential of hydrogels for systemic MTX delivery as well as transdermal delivery of the drug-using hydrogel-based formulations.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic autoimmune disease with a prevalence rate of up to 1% and is significantly considered a common worldwide public health concern. Commercially, several traditional formulations are available to treat RA to some extent. However, these synthetic compounds exert toxicity and considerable side effects even at lower therapeutic concentrations. Considering the above-mentioned critiques, research is underway around the world in finding and exploiting potential alternatives. For instance, marine-derived biologically active compounds have gained much interest and are thus being extensively utilized to confront the confines of in practice counterparts, which have become ineffective for 21st-century medical settings. The utilization of naturally available bioactive compounds and their derivatives can minimize these synthetic compounds' problems to treat RA. Several marine-derived compounds exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and can be effectively used for therapeutic purposes against RA. The results of several studies ensured that the extraction of biologically active compounds from marine sources could provide a new and safe source for drug development against RA. Finally, current challenges, gaps, and future perspectives have been included in this review.

Black Phosphorus as Multifaceted Advanced Material Nanoplatforms for Potential Biomedical Applications. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 11:E13. [PMID: 33374716 PMCID: PMC7822462 DOI: 10.3390/nano11010013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2020] [Revised: 12/09/2020] [Accepted: 12/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Black phosphorus is one of the emerging members of two-dimensional (2D) materials which has recently entered the biomedical field. Its anisotropic properties and infrared bandgap have enabled researchers to discover its applicability in several fields including optoelectronics, 3D printing, bioimaging, and others. Characterization techniques such as Raman spectroscopy have revealed the structural information of Black phosphorus (BP) along with its fundamental properties, such as the behavior of its photons and electrons. The present review provides an overview of synthetic approaches and properties of BP, in addition to a detailed discussion about various types of surface modifications available for overcoming the stability-related drawbacks and for imparting targeting ability to synthesized nanoplatforms. The review further gives an overview of multiple characterization techniques such as spectroscopic, thermal, optical, and electron microscopic techniques for providing an insight into its fundamental properties. These characterization techniques are not only important for the analysis of the synthesized BP but also play a vital role in assessing the doping as well as the structural integrity of BP-based nanocomposites. The potential role of BP and BP-based nanocomposites for biomedical applications specifically, in the fields of drug delivery, 3D printing, and wound dressing, have been discussed in detail to provide an insight into the multifunctional role of BP-based nanoplatforms for the management of various diseases, including cancer therapy. The review further sheds light on the role of BP-based 2D platforms such as BP nanosheets along with BP-based 0D platforms-i.e., BP quantum dots in the field of therapy and bioimaging of cancer using techniques such as photoacoustic imaging and fluorescence imaging. Although the review inculcates the multimodal therapeutic as well as imaging role of BP, there is still research going on in this field which will help in the development of BP-based theranostic platforms not only for cancer therapy, but various other diseases.

Abstract
Black phosphorus-based nanomaterials (BPNMs), an emerging member of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, possess excellent physicochemical properties and hold great potential for application in advanced nanomedicines. However, the bare BPNMs easily decrease their biomedical activities due to their degradability and in vivo interactions with biological macromolecules such as plasma proteins, largely restricting their biomedical application. A variety of surface modifications, via chemical, physical or biological approaches, have been developed for BPNMs to avoid these limitations and achieve stable, long-lasting and safe therapeutic effects, thus enlighten the development of the multifunctional BPNMs for more practical application in the field of biomedicine. The present review summarizes the recent advances in the surface modification of BPNMs and the resultant expansion of their biomedical applications. Focus is put on the strategy and method of modification while the effects incurred on the behavior and potential toxicity of BPNMs are also included. The future and challenge of the surface modification of the therapeutic BPNMs are finally discussed.

Abstract
The ideal bone repair material should firstly recognize and recruit osteoblast precursor cells to initiate the repair process, then promote the differentiation of osteoblasts and accelerate the mineralization of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Here, a bioinspired staged bone regeneration strategy which loads bone morphogenetic protein2 (BMP2 )-modified black phosphorus (BP@BMP2 ) nanosheets to a polylactic acid (PLLA) electrospun fibrous scaffold, with a combination of recruiting osteoblast precursor cells and biomineralization properties for bone regeneration, is constructed successfully by micro-sol electrospinning technique. BP, acting as carriers, can not only provide a negative surface and a strong BMP2 loading ability but can also promote biomineralization in a 3D manner on the electrospun fibrous scaffold, while the BMP2 is to target osteoblast precursor cells for recruitment and osteogenesis differentiation, which endows BP@BMP2 nanosheets with staged bone regeneration ability. Furthermore, the in vitro and in vivo data showed that the BP@BMP2 loaded electrospun fibrous scaffold have good biocompatibility and a strong osteogenesis ability resulting in rapid new bone tissue regeneration. Altogether, this newly developed bioinspired BMP2 -modified BP electrospun fiber with staged bone regeneration properties via recruiting osteoblast precursor cells to the bone injured site and accelerating biomineralization can be a promising approach in physiologic bone repair.

Abstract
Since their discovery, Black Phosphorus (BP)-based nanomaterials have received extensive attentions in the fields of electromechanics, optics and biomedicine, due to their remarkable properties and excellent biocompatibility. The most essential feature of BP is that it is composed of a single phosphorus element, which has a high degree of homology with the inorganic components of natural bone, therefore it has a full advantage in the treatment of bone defects. This review will first introduce the source, physicochemical properties, and degradation products of BP, then introduce the remodeling process of bone, and comprehensively summarize the progress of BP-based materials for bone therapy in the form of hydrogels, polymer membranes, microspheres, and three-dimensional (3D) printed scaffolds. Finally, we discuss the challenges and prospects of BP-based implant materials in bone immune regulation and outlook the future clinical application.

[PMID: 33052249 PMCID: PMC7546009 DOI: 10.7150/thno.49784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2020] [Accepted: 09/17/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Recently, the rapid development of biomaterials has induced great interest in the precisely targeted treatment of bone-related diseases, including bone cancers, infections, and inflammation. Realizing noninvasive therapeutic effects, as well as improving bone tissue regeneration, is essential for the success of bone‑related disease therapies. In recent years, researchers have focused on the development of stimuli-responsive strategies to treat bone-related diseases and to realize bone regeneration. Among the various external stimuli for targeted therapy, near infrared (NIR) light has attracted considerable interests due to its high tissue penetration capacity, minimal damage toward normal tissues, and easy remote control properties. The main objective of this systematic review was to reveal the current applications of NIR light-assisted phototherapy for bone-related disease treatment and bone tissue regeneration. Database collection was completed by June 1, 2020, and a total of 81 relevant studies were finally included. We outlined the various therapeutic applications of photothermal, photodynamic and photobiomodulation effects under NIR light irradiation for bone‑related disease treatment and bone regeneration, based on the retrieved literatures. In addition, the advantages and promising applications of NIR light-responsive drug delivery systems for spatiotemporal-controlled therapy were summarized. These findings have revealed that NIR light-assisted phototherapy plays an important role in bone-related disease treatment and bone tissue regeneration, with significant promise for further biomedical and clinical applications.

[PMID: 32681742 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.a.37062] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2020] [Revised: 06/29/2020] [Accepted: 07/07/2020] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Due to limitations of treatment and the stubbornness of infiltrative tumor cells, the outcome of conventional antitumor treatment is often compromised by a variety of factors, including severe side effects, unexpected recurrence, and massive tissue loss during the treatment. Hydrogel-based therapy is becoming a promising option of cancer treatment, because of its controllability, biocompatibility, high drug loading, prolonged drug release, and specific stimuli-sensitivity. Hydrogel-based therapy has good malleability and can reach some areas that cannot be easily touched by surgeons. Furthermore, hydrogel can be used not only as a carrier for tumor treatment agents, but also as a scaffold for tissue repair. In this review, we presented the latest researches in hydrogel applications of localized tumor therapy and highlighted the recent progress of hydrogel-based therapy in preventing postoperative tumor recurrence and improving tissue repair, thus proposing a new trend of hydrogel-based technology in localized tumor therapy. And this review aims to provide a novel reference and inspire thoughts for a more accurate and individualized cancer treatment.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by synovial hyperplasia and cartilage/bone destruction, which results in a high disability rate on human health and a huge burden on social economy. At present, traditional therapies based on drug therapy still cannot cure RA, in accompany with the potential serious side effects. Based on the development of nanobiotechnology and nanomedicine, energy conversion-based nanotherapy has demonstrated distinctive potential and performance in RA treatment. This strategy employs specific nanoparticles with intrinsic physiochemical properties to target lesions with the following activation by diverse external stimuli, such as light, ultrasound, microwave, and radiation. These nanoagents subsequently produce therapeutic effects or release therapeutic factors to promote necrotic apoptosis of RA inflammatory cells, reduce the concentration of related inflammatory factors, relieve the symptoms of RA, which are expected to ultimately improve the life quality of RA patients. This review highlights and discusses the versatile biomedical applications of energy conversion-based nanotherapy in efficient RA treatment, in together with the deep clarification of the facing challenges and further prospects on the final clinical translations of these energy conversion-based nanotherapies against RA.
