Epigallocatechin-3-gallate adsorbed on core-shell gold nanorod@mesoporous silica nanoparticles, an antioxidant nanomaterial with photothermal properties. Int J Pharm 2024; 662:124507. [PMID: 39048041 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2024] [Revised: 07/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) exhibits several pharmacological activities with potential benefits for human health, however, it has low oral bioavailability. A promising approach is to transport EGCG in a nanostructured system to protect it until it reaches the site of action and also allow combining chemotherapy with phototherapy to improve its therapeutic efficiency. The aim of this work was to synthesize GNR@mSiO2-NH2/EGCG and characterize the adsorption process, its antioxidant activity, properties and photothermal stability, for its potential use in chemo-photothermal therapy. The nanosystem presented good encapsulation efficiency (19.2 %) and EGCG loading capacity (6.0 %). The DPPH• free radical scavenging capacity (RSA) and chelating activity of the nanosystem was 60.7 ± 6.9 % and 71.0 ± 6.4 % at an EGCG equivalent concentration of 1 µg/mL and 30 µg/mL, respectively. The core-shell NPs presented a good photothermal transduction efficiency of 17 %. EGCG free, as well as its RSA and chelating activity, remained stable after NIR irradiation (808 nm, 7 W/cm2). The morphology of GNR@mSiO2 remained intact after being irradiated with NIR, however, ultrasmall gold NPs could be observed, probably a product of photocracking of GNR. In summary, the nanosystem has good antioxidant activity, photothermal stability, and photothermal transduction ability making it potentially useful for chemo-photothermal therapy.

Abstract
Photoactivatable (alternatively, photoremovable, photoreleasable, or photocleavable) protecting groups (PPGs), also known as caged or photocaged compounds, are used to enable non-invasive spatiotemporal photochemical control over the release of species of interest. Recent years have seen the development of PPGs activatable by biologically and chemically benign visible and near-infrared (NIR) light. These long-wavelength-absorbing moieties expand the applicability of this powerful method and its accessibility to non-specialist users. This review comprehensively covers organic and transition metal-containing photoactivatable compounds (complexes) that absorb in the visible- and NIR-range to release various leaving groups and gasotransmitters (carbon monoxide, nitric oxide, and hydrogen sulfide). The text also covers visible- and NIR-light-induced photosensitized release using molecular sensitizers, quantum dots, and upconversion and second-harmonic nanoparticles, as well as release via photodynamic (photooxygenation by singlet oxygen) and photothermal effects. Release from photoactivatable polymers, micelles, vesicles, and photoswitches, along with the related emerging field of photopharmacology, is discussed at the end of the review.

Abstract
The design and development of an efficacious tumor-specific drug-delivery system is a challenging task. In this study, we have synthesized target-specific small peptide substrates on an octaguanidine sorbitol scaffold, named small molecular targeted drug-delivery conjugate (SMTDDC). The SMTDDC fabrication, with dual targeting cRGD and Cathepsin B (Cath B)-specific tripeptide (Glu-Lys-Phe), altered the microtubule network of glioblastoma cells by the orchestrated release of the cytotoxic paclitaxel (PTX). Cath B assisted PTX delivery was monitored by high-performance liquid chromatography and Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) modalities. The time-dependent SERS fingerprinting and imaging revealed a fast and accurate PTX release profile and subsequent in vitro cytotoxicity as well as the apoptotic events and microtubule network alteration in U-87 MG glioblastoma cells. Furthermore, SMTDDC displayed adequate stability under physiological conditions and demonstrated biocompatibility toward red blood cells and lymphocytes. This study indicated a new insight on SERS-guided peptidomimetic sorbitol molecular transporter, enabling a greater promise with high potential for the further development of PTX delivery in glioblastoma treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Celastrol has been proven effective in anti-inflammatory but was limited in the clinic due to the poor solubility and side effects induced by low bioavailability. Osteoarthritis has acidic and inflammatory environment. Our aim was to load celastrol into HMSNs and capped with chitosan to construct a pH-responsive nanoparticle medicine (CSL@HMSNs-Cs), which is of high solubility for osteoarthritis intra-articular injection treatment. METHODS The CSL@HMSNs-Cs were assembled and the characteristics were measured. The CSL@HMSNs-Cs was applied in vitro in the chondrocytes collected from rats cartilage tissue and in vivo in the MIA induced knee osteoarthritis rats via intra-articular injection. Cytotoxicity assay, pH-responsive release, pain behavior, MRI, safranin o fast green staining, ELISA and western blot analysis were applied to evaluate the bioavailability and therapeutic effect of CSL@HMSNs-Cs. RESULTS CSL@HMSNs-Cs was stable due to the protection of the chitosan layers in alkaline environment (pH = 7.7) but revealed good solubility and therapeutic effect in acidic environment (pH = 6.0). The cytotoxicity assay showed no cytotoxicity at relatively low concentration (200 μg/mL) and the cell viability of chondrocytes stimulated by IL-1β was increased in CSL@HMSNs-Cs group. Paw withdrawal threshold in CSL@HMSNs-Cs group is increased, and MRI and Safranin O Fast Green staining showed improvements in articular surface erosion and joint effusion. The upregulated expression levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, MMP-3 and MMP-13 and NF-κB signaling pathway of chondrocytes were inhibited in CSL@HMSNs-Cs group. CONCLUSION Hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles were an ideal carrier for natural drugs with poor solubility and were of high biocompatibility for intra-articular injection. These intra-articular injectable CSL@HMSNs-Cs with improved solubility, present a pH-responsive therapeutic strategy against osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Nanomedicines have made important contributions in the development of cancer therapies due to their tumor selectivity, multifunctionality, and synergistic effect between the payloads. In addition to the required pharmaceutical ingredients, nanomedicines are generally composed of nonpharmaceutical excipients. These excipients generally form a large proportion of the nanomedicine, and they may have potential toxicity and greatly increase the cost for drug development. Small molecule nanomedicines (SMNs) minimize or abandon the excipients and are directly assembled from pharmaceutical ingredients, which can largely improve the drug delivery efficiency and biosafety while also relieving the financial burden of drug development. In this review, we summarize recently developed SMNs that are composed of a single drug, physical mixtures of multiple drugs, drug-drug covalent conjugates, dyes with drugs, photosensitizers with drugs, photosensitizers with peptides, and drugs with peptides. This review focuses on the SMN's applications in cancer treatments, their limitations, and the future development outlook of SMNs. We hope that our insights on SMNs may be helpful to the future of drug development and make nanomedicine more powerful in the battle with cancer. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease.

Abstract
The design of stimuli-responsive nanocarriers has raised much attention to achieve higher local concentration of therapeutics and mitigate the appearance of drug resistance. The combination of imaging properties and controlled photorelease of active molecules within the same nanoconjugate has a great potential for theranostic applications. In this study, a system for NIR light-triggered release of molecular cargos induced by the second harmonic emission from bismuth ferrite harmonic nanoparticles (BFO HNPs) is presented. Silica-coated BFO HNPs were covalently conjugated to a photocaging tether based on coumarin (CM) and l-tryptophan (Trp) as a model molecular cargo. Upon femtosecond pulsed irradiation at 790 nm, Trp was efficiently released from the NP surface in response to the harmonic emission of the nanomaterial at 395 nm. The emitted signal induced the photocleavage of the CM-Trp carbamate linkage resulting in the release of Trp, which was monitored and quantified by ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS). While a small fraction of the uncaging process could be attributed to the nonlinear absorption of CM derivatives, the main trigger responsible for Trp release was established as the second harmonic signal from BFO HNPs. This strategy may provide a new way for the application of functionalized HNPs in dual imaging delivery theranostic protocols.

Abstract
Many candidate anticancer drugs have suffered from their intrinsic hydrophobicity, which poses several obstacles for clinical application. To overcome this challenge and further improve the performance, herein a nanocrystal-based biomimetic formulation with a sandwich structure is developed. As the core, flake shaped nanocrystals (NCs) with high loading of the hydrophobic drug hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) are synthesized via a mild nanoprecipitation process by exploring the template effect of serum albumin. Meanwhile, the camouflaged cancer cell membrane (CM) composed of plentiful membrane proteins endows the NCs with homotypic targeting capacity at tumor sites. In addition, the photosensitizer indocyanine green sandwiched between NCs and CM not only converts near infrared light to heat for photothermal treatment but also improves the dissolution of HCPT NCs for chemotherapy. These features corporately achieve the orchestration of chemo-photothermal combination therapy and completely inhibit tumor growth with few adverse effects, showing promise as a new modality for the utilization of hydrophobic drugs to treat cancer.

Abstract
The toxicity of doxorubicin (DOX), especially in terms of cardiotoxicity, has been a common problem in its clinical use. In our studies, we synthesized and characterized DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites. In the in vitro experiments, DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites could more effectively induce apoptosis, inhibit colony formation, and inhibit the proliferation of the cancer cell line HeLa compared with free DOX. Furthermore, ultrasound could dramatically enhance these abilities of DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites. The in vivo studies showed that DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites increased the concentration of DOX in the tumour region and decreased the concentration of DOX in normal tissues. Additionally, DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites under ultrasound could inhibit growth and increase the apoptosis of xenograft tumour cells more effectively than DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites alone. Meanwhile, the cardiotoxicity of DOX was significantly reduced by DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites. The difference was more obvious in DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites under ultrasound. Moreover, prolonging the ultrasound time augments the antitumour efficacy and attenuates the toxicity of DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites. In summary, we concluded that DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites under ultrasound decrease DOX-induced toxicity in normal tissues and increase the antitumour effect of DOX by targeted delivery and controllable release, which shows the great potential of DOX-SiO2 nanocomposites for the delivery of DOX in the clinic.

Abstract
Nowadays, cancer has been one of the major threats to human beings throughout the world. Nanomedicines have been demonstrated as a promising candidate for cancer chemotherapy. In this work, we facilely constructed a RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) modified camptothecin@zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (RGD@CPT@ZIF-8) as a novel metal-organic frameworks-based hydrophobic drug delivery system for targeted and enhanced cancer treatment. In our system, the nanoplatform exhibited the superior property of target to the cancer cells due to the function with RGD. More importantly, the RGD@CPT@ZIF-8 nanoplatform has shown the enhanced cancer cell treatment due to the excellent pH-responsive hydrophobic anticancer drug delivery and intracellular ROS generation. With the excellent targeting and enhanced therapy performance, we envision that the hydrophobic anticancer drug delivery system could become a potential therapeutic agent for targeted cancer treatment.

Self-indicating, fully active pharmaceutical ingredients nanoparticles (FAPIN) for multimodal imaging guided trimodality cancer therapy. Biomaterials 2018; 161:203-215. [PMID: 29421556 PMCID: PMC5846343 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2018.01.044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2017] [Revised: 01/14/2018] [Accepted: 01/26/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Conventional drug delivery systems contain substantial amounts of excipients such as polymers and lipids, typically with low drug loading capacity and lack of intrinsic traceability and multifunctionality. Here, we report fully active pharmaceutical ingredient nanoparticles (FAPIN) which were self-assembled by minimal materials, but seamlessly orchestrated versatile theranostic functionalities including: i) self-delivery: no additional carriers were required, all components in the formulation are active pharmaceutical ingredients; ii) self-indicating: no additional imaging tags were needed. The nanoparticle itself was composed of 100% imaging agents, so that the stability, drug release, subcellular dispositions, biodistribution and therapeutic efficacy of FAPINs can be readily visualized by ample imaging capacities, including energy transfer relay dominated, dual-color fluorogenic property, near-infrared fluorescence imaging and magnetic resonance imaging; and iii) highly effective trimodality cancer therapy, encompassing photodynamic-, photothermal- and chemo-therapies. FAPINs were fabricated with very simple material (a photosensitizer-drug conjugate), unusually achieved ∼10 times better in vitro antitumor activity than their free counterparts, and were remarkably efficacious in patient-derived xenograft (PDX) glioblastoma multiforme animal models. Only two doses of FAPINs enabled complete ablation of highly-malignant PDX tumors in 50% of the mice.

Abstract
There are currently many basic technologies for the controlled release of therapeutic molecules for the treatment of chronic pathologies such as arthritis, asthma, and diabetes. Examples of such technologies include selectively dissolvable capsules and tablets that are designed to respond to specific stimuli - such as pH, temperature, or specific enzymes - in a time-specific fashion. However, because of the biological variations between different individuals, which contribute to differences in the environments of therapeutic target locations, these technologies are not fully controllable. In the pursuit of drug-release technologies that are fully controllable, many approaches have been examined. One such approach involves the utilization of various light-sensitive molecules that are designed to release therapeutic agents when stimulated by light of specific wavelengths. Potential light sources that have been explored for this approach include ultraviolet (UV) and near-infrared (NIR) light. UV light, which exists in the range of 10-400 nm, is easily to utilize, and many chemicals and particles can be stimulated with light in this spectrum. Unfortunately, when used extensively - as would be the case for chronic pathologies - UV light can cause cellular damage at the molecular level, potentially leading to skin cancer. A viable alternative to UV light is NIR light, which offers deeper transdermal penetration and does not have many known adverse long-term side effects. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to investigate the use of NIR light and the associated therapeutic molecules for the controlled release of therapeutic agents in the potential treatment of chronic pathologies.

Abstract
Currently, precision theranostics have been extensively demanded for the effective treatment of various human diseases. Currently, efficient therapy at the targeted disease areas still remains challenging since most available drug molecules lack of selectivity to the pathological sites. Among different approaches, light-mediated therapeutic strategy has recently emerged as a promising and powerful tool to precisely control the activation of therapeutic reagents and imaging probes in vitro and in vivo, mostly attributed to its unique properties including minimally invasive capability and highly spatiotemporal resolution. Although it has achieved initial success, the conventional strategies for light-mediated theranostics are mostly based on the light with short wavelength (e.g., UV or visible light), which may usually suffer from several undesired drawbacks, such as limited tissue penetration depth, unavoidable light absorption/scattering and potential phototoxicity to healthy tissues, etc. Therefore, a near-infrared (NIR) light-mediated approach on the basis of long-wavelength light (700-1000 nm) irradiation, which displays deep-tissue penetration, minimized photo-damage and low autofluoresence in living systems, has been proposed as an inspiring alternative for precisely phototherapeutic applications in the last decades. Despite numerous NIR light-responsive molecules have been currently proposed for clinical applications, several inherent drawbacks, such as troublesome synthetic procedures, low water solubility and limited accumulation abilities in targeted areas, heavily restrict their applications in deep-tissue therapeutic and imaging studies. Thanks to the amazing properties of several nanomaterials with large extinction coefficient in the NIR region, the construction of NIR light responsive nanoplatforms with multifunctions have become promising approaches for deep-seated diseases diagnosis and therapy. In this review, we summarized various light-triggered theranostic strategies and introduced their great advances in biomedical applications in recent years. Moreover, some other promising light-assisted techniques, such as photoacoustic and Cerenkov radiation, were also systemically discussed. Finally, the potential challenges and future perspectives for light-mediated deep-tissue diagnosis and therapeutics were proposed.

Abstract
Multifunctional composites have gained significant interest due to their unique properties which show potential in biological imaging and therapeutics. However, the design of an efficient combination of multiple diagnostic and therapeutic modes is still a challenge. In this contribution, Y2O3:Yb,Er@mSiO2 double-shelled hollow spheres (DSHSs) with up-conversion fluorescence have been successfully prepared through a facile integrated sacrifice template method, followed by a calcination process. It is found that the double-shelled structure with large specific surface area and uniform shape is composed of an inner shell of luminescent Y2O3:Yb,Er and an outer mesoporous silica shell. Ultra small Cu(x)S nanoparticles (about 2.5 nm) served as photothermal agents, and a chemotherapeutic agent (doxorubicin, DOX) was then attached onto the surface of mesoporous silica, forming a DOX-DSHS-Cu(x)S composite. The composite exhibits high anti-cancer efficacy due to the synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT) induced by the attached Cu(x)S nanoparticles and the enhanced chemotherapy promoted by the heat from the Cu(x)S-based PTT when irradiated by 980 nm near-infrared (NIR) light. Moreover, the composite shows excellent in vitro and in vivo X-ray computed tomography (CT) and up-conversion fluorescence (UCL) imaging properties owing to the doped rare earth ions, thus making it possible to achieve the target of imaging-guided synergistic therapy.

Abstract
In this article, we describe how nanoparticles work in photothermally triggered drug delivery, starting with a description of the plasmon resonance and the photothermal effect, and how this is used to release a drug. Then, we describe the four major functionalization strategies and each of their different applications. Finally, we discuss the biodistribution and toxicity of these systems and the necessary requirements for the use of gold nanoparticles for spatially and temporally controlling drug release through the photothermal effect.

Abstract
Chemotherapeutic regimens are often restricted by dose-limiting toxicities that arise from drug exposure to off-site tissues. Nanoparticle drug carriers that specifically deliver therapeutics to the site of malignant tissue are being actively researched today. One strategy is to utilize materials that are light-responsive, such that the carrier can be triggered to release its drug payload at the distinct time and location of light exposure. This review discusses recent advances in the development of such light-responsive drug carriers. With continued optimization and in vivo validation, these approaches may offer novel treatment options for cancer management.

Abstract
A pH-responsive free-blockage release system was achieved through controlling the hydrophobic/hydrophilic conversion of mesoporous silica nanopores. This system further presented pulsatile release with changing pH values between 4.0 and 7.0 for several cycles. This free-blockage release system could also release antitumor agents to induce cell death after infecting tumor cells and could have the ability of continuous infection to tumor cells with high drug-delivery efficiency and few side effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The interest for gold nanorods in biomedical optics is driven by their intense absorbance of near infrared light, their biocompatibility and their potential to reach tumors after systemic administration. Examples of applications include the photoacoustic imaging and the photothermal ablation of cancer. In spite of great current efforts, the selective delivery of gold nanorods to tumors through the bloodstream remains a formidable challenge. Their bio-conjugation with targeting units, and in particular with antibodies, is perceived as a hopeful solution, but the complexity of living organisms complicates the identification of possible obstacles along the way to tumors. RESULTS Here, we present a new model of gold nanorods conjugated with anti-cancer antigen 125 (CA125) antibodies, which exhibit high specificity for ovarian cancer cells. We implement a battery of tests in vitro, in order to simulate major nuisances and predict the feasibility of these particles for intravenous injections. We show that parameters like the competition of free CA125 in the bloodstream, which could saturate the probe before arriving at the tumors, the matrix effect and the interference with erythrocytes and phagocytes are uncritical. CONCLUSIONS Although some deterioration is detectable, anti-CA125-conjugated gold nanorods retain their functional features after interaction with blood tissue and so represent a powerful candidate to hit ovarian cancer cells.
