Bio- and Hemo-Compatible Silk Fibroin PEGylated Nanocarriers for 5-Fluorouracil Chemotherapy in Colorectal Cancer: In Vitro Studies. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13050755. [PMID: 34069731 PMCID: PMC8160811 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13050755] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2021] [Revised: 05/14/2021] [Accepted: 05/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
5-fluorouracil (5-FU) remains the gold standard of treatment for colorectal cancer, but its poor bioavailability and high systemic toxicity highlight the urgent need for the development of novel delivery strategies to increase the efficacy of 5-FU treatment. The present study is aimed to design and validate a PEGylated Silk Fibroin Nanocarrier (SF/PEG nanoparticles (NPs)) as an efficient 5-FU delivery system for potential intravenous administration. Using the human adenocarcinoma HT–29 cell line as an in vitro model for colorectal cancer, the cytotoxicity screening of the SF/PEG NPs showed that pristine nanocarriers were highly biocompatible, while the addition of 5-FU triggers a dramatic reduction in tumor cell viability, proliferation potential and mitochondrial integrity as well as a significant increase in nitric oxide production. Despite their high in vitro cytotoxicity, the 5-FU SF/PEG NPs were found hemocompatible as no impact on red blood cells hemolysis or the phagocytic activity of the granulocytes was observed. Exposure of HT–29 tumor cells and blood samples to 5-FU SF/PEG NPs augmented the tumor necrosis factor-α levels. Moreover, 5-FU SF/PEG NPs showed an impact on tumor cell migration and invasive potential as both of these processes were inhibited by the NP treatment.

Abstract
Nucleoside and nucleotide analogs are essential tools in our limited arsenal in the fight against cancer. However, these structures face severe drawbacks such as rapid plasma degradation or hydrophilicity, limiting their clinical application. Here, different aspects of nucleoside and nucleotide analogs have been exposed, while providing their shortcomings. Aiming to improve their fate in the body and combating their drawbacks, two different approaches have been discussed, the prodrug and nanocarrier technologies. Finally, a novel approach called "PUFAylation" based on both the prodrug and nanocarrier technologies has been introduced, promising to be the supreme method to create a novel nucleoside or nucleotide analog based formulation, with enhanced efficacy and highly reduced toxicity.

Abstract
Carbohydrate-based micro/nanoparticles have gained significant attention for various biomedical applications such as targeted/triggered/controlled drug delivery, bioimaging, biosensing, etc., because of their prominent characteristics like biocompatibility, biodegradability, hydrophilicity, and nontoxicity as well as nonimmunogenicity. Most importantly, the ability of the nanoparticles to recognize specific cell sites by targeting cell surface receptors makes them a promising candidate for designing a targeted drug delivery system. These particles may either comprise polysaccharides/glycopolymers or be integrated with various polymeric/inorganic nanoparticles such as gold, silver, silica, iron, etc., to reduce the toxicity of the inorganic nanoparticles and thus facilitate their cellular insertion. Various synthetic methods have been developed to fabricate carbohydrate-based or carbohydrate-conjugated inorganic/polymeric nanoparticles. In this review, we have highlighted the recently developed synthetic approaches to afford carbohydrate-based particles along with their significance in various biomedical applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND fluorescent nanodiamonds (FND) are nontoxic, infinitely photostable nanoparticles that emit near-infrared fluorescence and have a modifiable surface allowing for the generation of protein-FND conjugates. FND-mediated immune cell targeting may serve as a strategy to visualize immune cells and promote immune cell activation. METHODS uncoated-FND (uFND) were fabricated, coated with glycidol (gFND), and conjugated with immunoglobulin G (IgG-gFND). In vitro studies were performed using a breast cancer/natural killer/monocyte co-culture system, and in vivo studies were performed using a breast cancer mouse model. RESULTS in vitro studies demonstrated the targeted immune cell uptake of IgG-gFND, resulting in significant immune cell activation and no compromise in immune cell viability. IgG-gFND remained at the tumor site following intratumoral injection compared to uFND which migrated to the liver and kidneys. CONCLUSION antibody-conjugated FND may serve as immune drug delivery vehicles with "track and trace capabilities" to promote directed antitumor activity and minimize systemic toxicities.

Abstract
Major developments in nanomedicines, such as nanoparticles (NPs), nanosomes, and conjugates, have revolutionized drug delivery capabilities over the past four decades. Although nanocarrier agents provide numerous advantages (e.g., greater solubility and duration of systemic exposure) compared to their small-molecule counterparts, there is considerable inter-patient variability seen in the systemic disposition, tumor delivery and overall pharmacological effects (i.e., anti-tumor efficacy and unwanted toxicity) of NP agents. This review aims to provide a summary of fundamental factors that affect the disposition of NPs in the treatment of cancer and why they should be evaluated during preclinical and clinical development. Furthermore, this chapter will highlight some of the translational challenges associated with elements of NPs and how these issues can only be addressed by detailed and novel pharmacology studies.

Abstract
Advantages of polymeric nanoparticles as drug delivery systems include controlled release, enhanced drug stability and bioavailability, and specific tissue targeting. Nanoparticle properties such as hydrophobicity, size, and charge, mucoadhesion, and surface ligands, as well as administration route and suspension media affect their ability to overcome ocular barriers and distribute in the eye, and must be carefully designed for specific target tissues and ocular diseases. This review seeks to discuss the available literature on the biodistribution of polymeric nanoparticles and discuss the effects of nanoparticle composition and administration method on their ocular penetration, distribution, elimination, toxicity, and efficacy, with potential impact on clinical applications. ![]()

Abstract
Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), a non-ionic polymer, has been employed in multifarious fields such as paper, fibers and textiles, ceramics, and pharmaceutics due to its superior properties. Especially in pharmacy, the properties of inertness, non-toxicity, and biocompatibility make it a versatile excipient for both conventional formulations and novel controlled or targeted delivery systems, serving as a binder, coating agent, suspending agent, pore-former, solubilizer, stabilizer, etc. PVP with different molecular weights (MWs) and concentrations is used in a variety of formulations for different purposes. In this review, PVP-related researches mainly in recent 10 years were collected, and its main pharmaceutical applications were summarized as follows: (i) improving the bioavailability and stability of drugs, (ii) improving the physicomechanical properties of preparations, (iii) adjusting the release rate of drugs, and (iv) prolonging the in vivo circulation time of liposomes. Most of these applications could be explained by the viscosity, solubility, hydrophilicity, and hydrogen bond-forming ability of PVP, and the specific action mechanisms for each application were also tried to figure out. The effect of PVP on bioavailability improvement establishes it as a promising polymer in the emerging controlled or targeted formulations, attracting growing interest on it. Therefore, given its irreplaceability and tremendous opportunities for future developments, this review aims to provide an informative reference about current roles of PVP in pharmacy for interested readers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over the past decade, there has been a surge in the number of mitochondrialactive therapeutics for conditions ranging from cancer to aging. Subcellular targeting interventions can modulate adverse intracellular processes unique to the compartments within the cell. However, there is a dearth of reviews focusing on mitochondrial nano-delivery, and this review seeks to fill this gap with regards to nanotherapeutics of the mitochondria. METHODS Besides its potential for a higher therapeutic index than targeting at the tissue and cell levels, subcellular targeting takes into account the limitations of systemic drug administration and significantly improves pharmacokinetics. Hence, an extensive literature review was undertaken and salient information was compiled in this review. RESULTS From literature, it was evident that nanoparticles with their tunable physicochemical properties have shown potential for efficient therapeutic delivery, with several nanomedicines already approved by the FDA and others in clinical trials. However, strategies for the development of nanomedicines for subcellular targeting are still emerging, with an increased understanding of dysfunctional molecular processes advancing the development of treatment modules. For optimal delivery, the design of an ideal carrier for subcellular delivery must consider the features of the diseased microenvironment. The functional and structural features of the mitochondria in the diseased state are highlighted and potential nano-delivery interventions for treatment and diagnosis are discussed. CONCLUSION This review provides an insight into recent advances in subcellular targeting, with a focus on en route barriers to subcellular targeting. The impact of mitochondrial dysfunction in the aetiology of certain diseases is highlighted, and potential therapeutic sites are identified.

Abstract
The biorecognition-based control of attachment/detachment of MCF-7 cancer cells from polymer-coated surfaces is demonstrated. A glass surface is coated with a thermoresponsive statistical copolymer of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-acrylamide) [p(NIPAm-co-Am)], which is end-capped with the Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (GRGDS) peptide, and the hydrophilic polymer poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). Below the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of p(NIPAm-co-Am) (38 °C), the copolymers are in the extended conformation, allowing for accessibility of the GRGDS peptides to membrane-associated integrins thus enabling cell attachment. Above the LCST, the p(NIPAm-co-Am) polymers collapse into globular conformations, resulting in the shielding of the GRGDS peptides into the PEG brush with consequent inaccessibility to cell-surface integrins, causing cell detachment. The surface coating is carried out by a multi-step procedure that included: glass surface amination with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane; reaction of mPEG5kDa -N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) and p(NIPam-co-Am)15.1kDa -bis-NHS with the surface aminopropyl groups and conjugation of GRGDS to the carboxylic acid termini of p(NIPam-co-Am)15.1kDa -COOH. A range of spectrophotometric, surface, and microscopy assays confirmed the identity of the polymer-coated substrates. Competition studies prove that MCF-7 cancer cells are attached via peptide recognition at the coated surfaces according to the mPEG5kDa /p(NIPam-co-Am)15.1kDa -GRGDS molar ratio. These data suggest the system can be exploited to modulate cell integrin/GRGDS binding for controlled cell capture and release.

Abstract
The RNA interference (RNAi) pathway possesses immense potential in silencing any gene in human cells. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) can efficiently trigger RNAi silencing of specific genes. FDA Approval of siRNA therapeutics in recent years garnered a new hope in siRNA therapeutics. However, their therapeutic use is limited by several challenges. siRNAs, being negatively charged, are membrane-impermeable and highly unstable in the systemic circulation. In this review, we have comprehensively discussed the extracellular barriers, including enzymatic degradation of siRNAs by serum endonucleases and RNAases, rapid renal clearance, membrane impermeability, and activation of the immune system. Besides, we have thoroughly described the intracellular barriers such as endosomal trap and off-target effects of siRNAs. Moreover, we have reported most of the strategies and techniques in overcoming these barriers, followed by critical comments in translating these molecules from bench to bedside.

Abstract
During the period of pregnancy, several processes and physiological adaptations occur in the body and metabolism of pregnant woman. These physiological adaptations in pregnant woman end up leading to a suppression in immune system favoring obstetric complications to the mother, fetus and placental tissue. An effective pharmacological therapy for these complications is still a challenge, since some drugs during pregnancy can have deleterious and teratogenic effects. An emerging alternative to pharmacological therapy during pregnancy is drugs encapsulated in nanoparticles (NP), recent area called nano-obstetrics. NP have the advantage of drug targeting and reduction of side effects. Then, maternal, placental or fetal uptake can be expected, depending on the characteristics of NP. Inorganic NP, crossing placental barrier effectively, but have several nanotoxicological effects. While organic NP appear to have a better targeting capacity and have few toxicological effects, but the studies are still scarce. Thus, in this review, were examined questions related to use and impact of physicochemical aspects of inorganic and organic NP during pregnancy.

Abstract
The room-temperature controlled crystallization of monodispersed ZnS nanoparticles (average size of 5 nm) doped with luminescent ions (such as Mn2+, Eu3+, Sm3+, Nd3+, and Yb3+) was achieved via a microfluidic approach. The preparation did not require any stabilizing ligands or surfactants, minimizing potential sources of impurities. The synthesized nanomaterials were characterized from a structural (XRD and XAS at lanthanide L3 edges), morphological (TEM), and compositional (XPS, ICP-MS) perspective, giving complementary information on the materials' features. In view of potential applications in the field of optical bioimaging, the optical emission properties of the doped nanoparticles were assessed, and samples showed strong luminescent properties while being less affected by self-quenching mechanisms. Furthermore, in vitro cytotoxicity experiments were conducted, showing no negative effects and evidencing the appeal of the synthesized materials for potential applications in the field of optical bioimaging.

Abstract
To avoid poly(ethylene glycol)-related issues of nanomedicines such as accelerated blood clearance, fully N-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylamide (HPMAm)-based polymeric micelles decorated with biotin for drug delivery were designed. To this end, a biotin-functionalized chain transfer agent (CTA), 4-cyano-4-[(dodecylsulfanylthiocarbonyl)-sulfanyl]pentanoic acid (biotin-CDTPA), was synthesized for reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Amphiphilic poly(N-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylamide)-block-poly(N-2-benzoyloxypropyl methacrylamide) (p(HPMAm)-b-p(HPMAm-Bz)) with molecular weights ranging from 8 to 24 kDa were synthesized using CDTPA or biotin-CDTPA as CTA and 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionitrile) as initiator. The copolymers self-assembled in aqueous media into micelles with sizes of 40-90 nm which positively correlated to the chain length of the hydrophobic block in the polymers, whereas the critical micelle concentrations decreased with increasing hydrophobic block length. The polymer with a molecular weight of 22.1 kDa was used to prepare paclitaxel-loaded micelles which had sizes between 61 and 70 nm, and a maximum loading capacity of around 10 wt%. A549 lung cancer cells overexpressing the biotin receptor, internalized the biotin-decorated micelles more efficiently than non-targeted micelles, while very low internalization of both types of micelles by HEK293 human embryonic kidney cells lacking the biotin receptor was observed. As a consequence, the paclitaxel-loaded micelles with biotin decoration exhibited stronger cytotoxicity in A549 cells than non-targeted micelles. Overall, a synthetic pathway to obtain actively targeted poly(ethylene glycol)-free micelles fully based on a poly(HPMAm) backbone was established. These polymeric micelles are promising systems for the delivery of hydrophobic anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Smart engineered and naturally derived nanovesicles, capable of targeting specific tissues and cells and delivering bioactive molecules and drugs into them, are becoming important drug delivery systems. Liposomes stand out among different types of self-assembled nanovesicles, because of their amphiphilicity and non-toxic nature. By modifying their surfaces, liposomes can become stimulus-responsive, releasing their cargo on demand. Recently, the recognized role of exosomes in cell-cell communication and their ability to diffuse through tissues to find target cells have led to an increase in their usage as smart delivery systems. Moreover, engineering "smarter" delivery systems can be done by creating hybrid exosome-liposome nanocarriers via membrane fusion. These systems can be loaded in naturally derived hydrogels to achieve sustained and controlled drug delivery. Here, the focus is on evaluating the smart behavior of liposomes and exosomes, the fabrication of hybrid exosome-liposome nanovesicles, and the controlled delivery and routes of administration of a hydrogel matrix for drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Vinpocetine (VNP), a semisynthetic drug, is utilized for the treatment of cerebrovascular and memory disorders. This work aimed at formulation of biodegradable VNP long-circulating nanoparticles utilizing Polyethylene glycol methyl ether-block-poly lactide-co-glycolide (PEG-PLGA) copolymer to surmount the drug drawbacks including low oral bioavailability and short elimination half-life. VNP nanoparticles were formulated using nanoprecipitation technique. A 24 factorial design was applied to assess the impact of formulation and process variables on the nanoparticles' characteristics. Statistical analysis revealed that nanoparticles size (Y1) significantly increased with increasing PEG-PLGA amount (X1), poly-vinyl alcohol concentration (X2), and PLGA content (X4), while decreased with increasing sonication time (X3). Furthermore, the entrapment efficiency (Y2) was positively affected by both PEG-PLGA amount and PLGA content, while negatively affected by poly-vinyl alcohol concentration. The optimized formulation prepared using 200 mg of PEG-PLGA polymer (PEG: PLGA 2000: 4,500), 0.5% polyvinyl alcohol with sonication time of 60 s achieved spherical shape with particle size of 43 nm and drug entrapment of 82%. A significant bioavailability enhancement of VNP with marked prolongation of the in vivo systemic exposure of the drug and increased brain levels has also been achieved following intraperitoneal administration in Wistar rats. Thus, the optimized formulation could be regarded as a promising stealth nanocarrier that could surmount the drug pitfalls and enhance its brain delivery.

Abstract
The classically used nontargeted chemotherapeutic approach to pancreatic cancer has a dual drawback of suboptimal drug delivery at the target site and the systemic side effects produced by the unfettered exposure of the drug to healthy tissue. This study has the objective of developing novel poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PETOX)-based long circulating liposomes loaded with gemcitabine and irinotecan for the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, with a juxtaposition to PEGylated and uncoated liposomes. A PETOX-cholesteryl chloroformate lipopolymer conjugate (PETOX-ChC) with a carbonate linkage was prepared and characterized by 1H NMR, FTIR, and DSC. Liposomes were prepared using the thin film hydration technique followed by freeze-thaw and membrane extrusion methods. Liposome characterization includes particle size determination, zeta potential determination using a zetameter, and structural elucidation using 31P NMR and cryo-TEM. The PETOXylated liposomes showed a particle size of 180.1 ± 2.2 nm and a zeta potential of - 33.63 ± 1.23 mV. The liposomal combination therapy of gemcitabine and irinotecan was found to have an IC50 value 39 times lower in comparison to the drug combination in solution, while the PEGylated and PETOXylated liposomes showed IC50 values 1.6 times lower and 2 times lower than that of uncoated liposomes, respectively, against Mia PaCa II pancreatic cancer cell line. The PEGylated and PETOXylated liposomes showed 4.1 and 5.4 times slower macrophagial uptake in vitro in comparison to the uncoated liposomes respectively. The PEGylated liposomes showed 11% higher in vitro macrophagial uptake in comparison to PETOXylated liposomes.

Abstract
Most problems associated with chemotherapeutic agents involve non-specific cytotoxicity, low intratumoral accumulation and drug resistance. Targeted drug delivery systems (TDDS) based on nanoparticles (NPs) are a new strategy for better therapeutic efficiency, along with reduction of side effects commonly seen with cancer drugs. Poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), as one of the furthest developed synthetic polymer, has gained significant attention because of excellent properties-including biodegradability and biocompatibility, controlled release of drug, protection of drug or gene from decomposition and ability to modify surface with targeting agents for both cancer diagnosis and therapy. Aptamers are single-stranded RNA or DNA that can fold through intramolecular interactions into specific three-dimensional structures to selectively and exclusively bind with interested biomarkers. In this review, we explain the latest developments regarding the application of aptamer-decorated PLGA NPs in delivery of therapeutic agents or cancer-related genes into cancer cells. Additionally, we discuss the most recent efforts in the field of aptamer-grafted PLGA-based NPs as theranostics and stimuli-responsive agents.

Abstract
Elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) are stimulus-responsive biopolymers derived from human elastin. Their unique properties—including lower critical solution temperature phase behavior and minimal immunogenicity—make them attractive materials for a variety of biomedical applications. ELPs also benefit from recombinant synthesis and genetically encoded design; these enable control over the molecular weight and precise incorporation of peptides and pharmacological agents into the sequence. Because their size and sequence are defined, ELPs benefit from exquisite control over their structure and function, qualities that cannot be matched by synthetic polymers. As such, ELPs have been engineered to assemble into unique architectures and display bioactive agents for a variety of applications. This review discusses the design and representative biomedical applications of ELPs, focusing primarily on their use in tissue engineering and drug delivery.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) have emerged as a powerful drug-delivery tool for cancer therapies to enhance the specificity of drug actions, while reducing the systemic side effects. Nonetheless, NPs interact massively with the surrounding physiological environments including plasma proteins upon administration into the bloodstream. Consequently, they are rapidly cleared from the blood circulation by the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) or complement system, resulting in a premature elimination that will cause the drug release at off-target sites. By grafting a stealth coating layer onto the surface of NPs, the blood circulation half-life of nanomaterials can be improved by escaping the recognition and clearance of the immune system. This review focuses on the basic concept underlying the stealth behavior of NPs by polymer coating, whereby the fundamental surface coating characteristics such as molecular weight, surface chain density as well as conformations of polymer chains are of utmost importance for efficient protection of NPs. In addition, the most commonly used stealth polymers such as poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), poly(2-oxazoline) (POx), and poly(zwitterions) in developing long-circulating NPs for drug delivery are also thoroughly discussed. The biomimetic strategies, including the cell-membrane camouflaging technique and CD47 functionalization for the development of stealth nano-delivery systems, are highlighted in this review as well.

Abstract
Polymeric nanoparticles can be used for drug delivery systems in healthcare. For this purpose poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) offer an excellent polymeric matrix. In this work, PLGA and PEG polymers were functionalized with coumarin and carbohydrate moieties such as thymidine, glucose, galactose, and mannose that have high biological specificities. Using a single oil in water emulsion methodology, functionalized PLGA nanoparticles were prepared having a smooth surface and sizes ranging between 114–289 nm, a low polydispersity index and a zeta potential from −28.2 to −56.0 mV. However, for the corresponding PEG derivatives the polymers obtained were produced in the form of films due to the small size of the hydrophobic core.

Abstract
There remain several key challenges to existing therapeutic systems for cancer therapy, such as quantitatively determining the true, tissue-specific drug release profile in vivo, as well as reducing side-effects for an increased standard of care. Hence, it is crucial to engineer new materials that allow for a better understanding of the in vivo pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic behaviours of therapeutics. We have expanded on recent “click-to-release” bioorthogonal pro-drug activation of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) to develop a modular and controlled theranostic system for quantitatively assessing site-specific drug activation and deposition from a nanocarrier molecule, by employing defined chemistries. The exploitation of quantitative imaging using positron emission tomography (PET) together with pre-targeted bioorthogonal chemistries in our system provided an effective means to assess in real-time the exact amount of active drug administered at precise sites in the animal; our methodology introduces flexibility in both the targeting and therapeutic components that is specific to nanomedicines and offers unique advantages over other technologies. In this approach, the in vivo click reaction facilitates pro-drug activation as well as provides a quantitative means to investigate the dynamic behaviour of the therapeutic agent. There remain several key challenges to existing therapeutic systems for cancer therapy, such as quantitatively determining the true, tissue-specific drug release profile in vivo, as well as reducing side-effects for an increased standard of care.![]()

Abstract
Block copolymer micelles have received increasing attention in the last decades, in particular for their appealing properties in nanomedicine. However, systematic investigations of the interaction between polymeric micelles and immune cells are still rare. Therefore, broader studies comparing the structural effects remain inevitable for a comprehensive understanding of the immune response and for the design of efficient, nonimmunogenic delivery systems. Here, we present novel block copolymer micelles with the same hydrophobic core, based on a copolymer of BA and VDM, and various hydrophilic shells ranging from common PEG derivatives to morpholine-based materials. The influence of these shells on innate immune responses was studied in detail. In addition, we investigated the impact of micelle stability by varying the cross-linking density in the micellar core. Surprisingly, whereas different shells had only a minor impact on immune response, micelles with reduced cross-linking density considerably enhanced the release of cytokines from isolated human monocytes. Moreover, the uptake of non-cross-linked micelles by monocytes was significantly higher as compared to cross-linked materials. Our study emphasizes the importance of the micellar stability on the interaction with the immune system, which is the key for any stealth properties in vivo. Polymers based on morpholines result in a similar low response as the PEG derivative and may represent an interesting alternative to the common PEGylation.

Abstract
Polymeric biomaterials have found widespread applications in nanomedicine, and poly(lactide-co-glycolide), (PLGA) in particular has been successfully implemented in numerous drug delivery formulations due to its synthetic malleability and biocompatibility. However, the need for preconception in these formulations is increasing, and this can be achieved by selection and elimination of design variables in order for these systems to be tailored for their specific applications. The starting materials and preparation methods have been shown to influence various parameters of PLGA-based nanocarriers and their implementation in drug delivery systems, while the implementation of computational simulations as a component of formulation studies can provide valuable information on their characteristics. This review provides a critical summary of the synthesis and applications of PLGA-based systems in bio-medicine and outlines experimental and computational design considerations of these systems.

Abstract
Engineering protein and peptide-based materials for drug delivery applications has gained momentum due to their biochemical and biophysical properties over synthetic materials, including biocompatibility, ease of synthesis and purification, tunability, scalability, and lack of toxicity. These biomolecules have been used to develop a host of drug delivery platforms, such as peptide- and protein-drug conjugates, injectable particles, and drug depots to deliver small molecule drugs, therapeutic proteins, and nucleic acids. In this review, we discuss progress in engineering the architecture and biological functions of peptide-based biomaterials -naturally derived, chemically synthesized and recombinant- with a focus on the molecular features that modulate their structure-function relationships for drug delivery.

Borneol and poly (ethylene glycol) dual modified BSA nanoparticles as an itraconazole vehicle for brain targeting. Int J Pharm 2019; 575:119002.

Abstract
Itraconazole (ITZ) can be used for the treatment of cryptococcus neoformans meningitis and aspergillus brain abscess. While, the inherent hydrophobicity of ITZ and the existence of blood brain barrier (BBB) limit its applications as a central nervous system drug. In this study, a novel brain targeting drug delivery system based on bovine serum albumin (BSA) was constructed for enhancing ITZ distribution in brain. Firstly, ITZ was loaded into BSA nanoparticles (ITZ-NPs) with 11.6% of drug loading. Subsequently, the nanoparticles were modified with borneol (BO) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) (PEG/BO-ITZ-NPs). The resulting nanoparticles retained their nanosize (186.3 nm), uniform and spherical morphology, and negative surface charge (-21.03 mV). Cell uptake studies showed that compared with ITZ-NPs, PEG/BO-ITZ-NPs had significantly increased uptake in bEnd.3 cells, and the increase in BO concentration was beneficial for the cellular uptake of NPs. Moreover, PEG/BO-ITZ-NPs displayed an approximately 3.5-fold higher area under the curve in rats and about 2-fold higher brain distribution in mice than that of Sporanox®, i.e. ITZ solubilized by hydroxylpropyl-β-cyclodetrin, after i.v. administration. In a word, BO and PEG dual modified BSA nanoparticles may potentially serve as an ITZ vehicle for brain targeting.

Abstract
Modification of nanoparticle surfaces with PEG has been widely considered the gold standard for many years. However, PEGylation presents controversial and serious challenges including lack of functionality, hindered cellular interaction, allergic reactions, and stimulation of IgM production after repetitive dosing that accelerates blood clearance of the nanoparticles. We report the development of novel liposomal formulations surface-modified with a low molecular weight, branched polyethyleneimine (bPEI)-lipid conjugate for use as an alternative to PEG. The formulations had very good stability characteristics in ion- and protein-rich mediums. Protein adsorption onto the liposomal surface did not interfere with the cellular interaction. bPEI-modified liposomes (PEIPOS) showed enhanced association with three different cell lines by up to 75 times compared to plain or PEGylated liposomes and were without carrier toxicity. They also penetrated the deeper layers of 3D spheroids. Encapsulating paclitaxel (PTX) into PEIPOS did not change its main mechanism of action. PEIPOS complexed and intracellularly delivered siRNAs and downregulated resistance-associated proteins. Finally, tumor growth inhibition was observed in a mouse ovarian xenograft tumor model, without signs of toxicity, in animals treated with the siRNA/PTX co-loaded formulation. These complex-in-nature but simple-in-design novel liposomal formulations constitute viable and promising alternatives with added functionality to their PEGylated counterparts.

Abstract
Here we demonstrate theranostic immune checkpoint inhibitor nanocomposites (ICI NC) having an improved tumor targeting ability in pulmonary metastatic colon cancer model. Atezolizumab, a PD-L1 antibody, was conjugated with methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MePEG) and chlorin e6 (Ce6) via cathepsin-B-sensitive peptide as a linkage (named as ICI nanocomposites, ICI NC). This ICI NC is delivered to tumor sites enriched with tumor-specific enzymes such as cathepsin B, whereas undesired ICI exposure to normal tissue is avoided. When ICI NC were incubated with cathepsin B, Ce6 was released from ICI NC with increased fluorescence intensity in cathepsin B dose-dependent manner, which was by degradation of the peptide and then liberated Ce6 was activated in the aqueous solution. In animal pulmonary metastasis model using CT26 cells, ICI NC showed superior tumor targetability, i.e., fluorescence intensity was significantly strong in the mouse lung having metastatic tumor. On the contrary, cathepsin-B-deficient carriers such as atezolizumab-Ce6 conjugates or atezolizumab-Ce6/MePEG conjugates showed strong fluorescence intensity in the liver as well as lung. Our proposed ICI NC may be used for theranostic cancer therapy with superior tumor specificity of releasing ICI and Ce6 into tumor microenvironment, thereby showing an efficient inhibitory effect on pulmonary metastasis of CT26 cells.

Abstract
The marriage of nanotechnology and medicine offers new opportunities to fight against human diseases. Benefiting from their unique optical, thermal, magnetic, or redox properties, a wide range of nanomaterials have shown potential in applications such as diagnosis, drug delivery, or tissue repair and regeneration. Despite the considerable success achieved over the past decades, the newly emerging nanomedicines still suffer from an incomplete understanding of their safety risks, and of the relationships between their physicochemical characteristics and safety profiles. Herein, the most important categories of nanomaterials with clinical potential and their toxicological mechanisms are summarized, and then, based on this available information, an overview of the principles in developing safe-by-design nanomaterials for medical applications and of the recent progress in this field is provided. These principles may serve as a starting point to guide the development of more effective safe-by-design strategies and to help identify the major knowledge and skill gaps.

Abstract
Over the last several decades, nanoparticulate delivery systems have emerged as advanced drug and gene delivery tools for cancer therapy. However, their translation into clinical use still poses major challenges. Even though many innovative nanoparticulate approaches have shown very positive results both in vitro and in vivo, few of them have found a place in clinical practice. Possible factors responsible for the existing gap in the translation of nanomedicine to clinical practice may include oversimplification of enhanced permeability and retention effect, lack of correlation between the in vivo animal data vs their translation in human, and challenging multiple biological steps experienced during systemic delivery of nanomedicine. Understanding these challenges and coming up with solutions to overcome them is an important step in effective translation of nanomedicine into clinical practice. This review focuses on advancements in the field of nanomedicine used for anti-cancer therapy, including passive targeting, active targeting, and stimuli-controlled delivery. The review further reveals some of the challenges that are currently faced by pharmaceutical scientists in translation of nanomedicine; these include lack of adequate models for preclinical testing that can predict efficacy in humans, absence of appropriate regulatory guidelines for their approval processes, and difficulty in scale-up of the manufacturing of nanodrug delivery systems. A better understanding of these challenges will help us in filling the gap between the bench and bedside in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Cancer accounts for millions of deaths every year and, due to the increase and aging of the world population, the number of new diagnosed cases is continuously rising. Although many progresses in early diagnosis and innovative therapeutic protocols have been already set in clinical practice, still a lot of critical aspects need to be addressed in order to efficiently treat cancer and to reduce several drawbacks caused by conventional therapies. Nanomedicine has emerged as a very promising approach to support both early diagnosis and effective therapy of tumors, and a plethora of different inorganic and organic multifunctional nanomaterials have been ad hoc designed to meet the constant demand for new solutions in cancer treatment. Given their unique features and extreme versatility, nanocarriers represent an innovative and easily adaptable tool both for imaging and targeted therapy purposes, in order to improve the specific delivery of drugs administered to cancer patients. The current review reports an in-depth analysis of the most recent research studies aiming at developing both inorganic and organic materials for nanomedical applications in cancer diagnosis and therapy. A detailed overview of different approaches currently undergoing clinical trials or already approved in clinical practice is provided.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 is a hydrophobic micronutrient and is known for inhibiting osteoclastic bone resorption in vivo via suppression of the Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor-Kappa B (RANK ligand) expression in osteoblasts. Although vitamin D is well-known for its promotion in bone health, little is known on its effects directly on bone cells. The objective of this study was to understand the effects of vitamin D3 release from 3D printed calcium phosphate scaffolds towards bone cell proliferation. In this study, cholecalciferol, a common intake form of vitamin D3, was successfully able to release from the scaffold matrix via the use of polyethylene glycol. Results showed a decrease in osteoclast resorption pits and healthier osteoblast cellular morphology compared to the control. Additively manufactured tricalcium phosphate scaffolds with designed porosity were loaded with vitamin D3 and showed controlled release profiles in phosphate buffer and acetate buffer solutions. The release kinetics of vitamin D3 from calcium phosphate scaffolds enabling osteoblast proliferation and inhibiting osteoclastic resorption can enhance healing for low load bearing applications for bone defects or permeate voids left by tumor resection. Release of Vitamin D3, cholecalciferol, from 3D printed calcium phosphate scaffolds showed reduced osteoclast resorption activity.![]()
