Abstract
Many preclinical studies are carried out with the aim of developing new formulations for the effective delivery of taxane class drugs, one of the most important anticancer drugs used clinically today. In this study, a radiolabeled folate-mediated solid lipid magnetic nanoparticle (SLMNP) system was developed by loading superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MNP) and docetaxel (DTX) into the solid lipid nanoparticles as a drug delivery system that will function both in cancer treatment and diagnosis. For this purpose, first, SLMNP was synthesized by the hot homogenization method, and the surface of the particles was modified with a folate derivative to carry the particles to tissues with folate receptors. The synthesized magnetic solid lipid nanoparticles were loaded with DTX, and then radiolabeling was carried out with technetium-99 m (99mTc-DTX-SLMNP). Structural characteristics of these nanoparticles were determined by characterization methods. According to the TEM images of MNPs, SLN, and SLMNPs, MNPs were observed between 25and 35 nm, SLNs between 400 and 500 nm, and SLMNPs between 350 and 450 nm. The drug entrapment efficiency of SLMNPs loaded with DTX was found to be 19%, and the percentage efficiency of radiolabeling was found to be 98.0 ± 2.0%. The biological behavior of this radiolabeled system was investigated in vitro and in vivo. Folate receptor-positive SKOV-3 and folate receptor-negative A549 cancer cell lines were studied. The IC50 values of DTX-SLMNP in SKOV-3 and A549 cells were 50.21 and 172.27 μM at 48 h, respectively. Gamma camera imaging studies of 99mTc-DTX-SLMNP and magnetically applied 99mTc-DTX-SLMNP compounds were performed on tumor-bearing CD-1 nude mice. The uptake in the folate receptor-positive tumor region was higher than that in the folate receptor negative tumor region. We proposed that the drug delivery system we prepared in this study be evaluated for preclinical studies of new drug carrier formulations of the taxane class of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the major public health problems worldwide. Despite the advances in cancer therapy, it remains a challenge due to the low specificity of treatment and the development of multidrug resistance mechanisms. To overcome these drawbacks, several drug delivery nanosystems have been investigated, among them, magnetic nanoparticles (MNP), especially superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION), which have been applied for treating cancer. MNPs have the ability to be guided to the tumor microenvironment through an external applied magnetic field. Furthermore, in the presence of an alternating magnetic field (AMF) this nanocarrier can transform electromagnetic energy in heat (above 42 °C) through Néel and Brown relaxation, which makes it applicable for hyperthermia treatment. However, the low chemical and physical stability of MNPs makes their coating necessary. Thus, lipid-based nanoparticles, especially liposomes, have been used to encapsulate MNPs to improve their stability and enable their use as a cancer treatment. This review addresses the main features that make MNPs applicable for treating cancer and the most recent research in the nanomedicine field using hybrid magnetic lipid-based nanoparticles for this purpose.

Abstract
AbstractThere are significant challenges in developing drug carriers for therapeutic perspective. We have investigated a novel nanocarrier system, based on combining functionalized magnetic nanocomposite with Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs). Magnetic nanoparticles modified using biocompatible copolymers may be suitable for delivering hydrophobic drugs, such as cisplatin. Furthermore, compared to polymeric nanocarriers, nanocomposite constructed from zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) have demonstrated better drug loading capacity, as well as excellent pH-triggered drug release. Cisplatin-encapsulated Fe3O4@SiO2-ZIF-8@N-Chit-FA has been evaluated to determine the antitumor effects of free cisplatin enhancement in cervical cancer cells. In order to increase the stability of the proposed nanocarrier in aqueous solutions, in addition to the density of functional groups, a nano-chitosan layer was coated on top of the magnetic nanocomposite. It was then added with cisplatin onto the surface of Fe3O4@SiO2-ZIF-8@N-Chit-FA to deliver anticancer treatment that could be targeted using a magnetic field. A mouse isograft model of TC1 cells was used to evaluate the in vivo tumor growth inhibition. In tumor-bearing mice, Fe3O4@SiO2-ZIF-8@N-Chit-FA-cisplatin was injected intraperitoneally, and the targeted delivery was amplified by an external magnet (10 mm by 10 mm, surface field strength 0.4 T) fixed over the tumor site. Based on in vivo results, cisplatin-Loaded Mesoporous Magnetic Nanobiocomposite inhibited the growth of cervical tumors (P < 0.001) through the induction of tumor necrosis (P < 0.05) when compared to cisplatin alone. With the application of an external magnetic field, the drug was demonstrated to be able to induce its effects on specific target areas. In summary, Fe3O4 @ SiO2-ZIF-8 @ N-Chit-FA nanocomposites have the potential to be implemented in targeted nanomedicine to deliver bio-functional molecules.

Abstract
With the aim improving drug delivery, liposomes have been employed as carriers for chemotherapeutics achieving promising results; their co-encapsulation with magnetic nanoparticles is evaluated in this work. The objective of this study was to examine the physicochemical characteristics, the pharmacokinetic behaviour, and the efficacy of pegylated liposomes loaded with cisplatin and magnetic nanoparticles (magnetite) (Cis-MLs). Cis-MLs were prepared by a modified reverse-phase evaporation method. To characterize their physicochemical properties, an evaluation was made of particle size, ζ-potential, phospholipid and cholesterol concentration, phase transition temperature (Tm), the encapsulation efficiency of cisplatin and magnetite, and drug release profiles. Additionally, pharmacokinetic studies were conducted on normal Wistar rats, while apoptosis and the cytotoxic effect were assessed with HeLa cells. We present a method for simultaneously encapsulating cisplatin at the core and also embedding magnetite nanoparticles on the membrane of liposomes with a mean vesicular size of 104.4 ± 11.5 nm and a ζ-potential of −40.5 ± 0.8 mV, affording a stable formulation with a safe pharmacokinetic profile. These liposomes elicited a significant effect on cell viability and triggered apoptosis in HeLa cells.

Abstract
Few chemotherapeutics have had such an impact on cancer management as cis-diamminedichloridoplatinum(II) (CDDP), also known as cisplatin. The first member of the platinum-based drug family, CDDP's potent toxicity in disrupting DNA replication has led to its widespread use in multidrug therapies, with particular benefit in patients with testicular cancers. However, CDDP also produces significant side effects that limit the maximum systemic dose. Various strategies have been developed to address this challenge including encapsulation within micro- or nanocarriers and the use of external stimuli such as ultrasound to promote uptake and release. The aim of this review is to look at these strategies and recent scientific and clinical developments.

Abstract
The development of anticancer drug delivery systems which retain or enhance the cytotoxic properties of the drug to tumorous tissues, while reducing toxicity to other organs is of key importance. We investigated different poly(methacrylic acid)-g-poly(ethyleneglycol methacrylate) polymers as in situ coating agents for magnetite nanocrystallites. The obtained magnetic nano-assemblies were in turn thoroughly characterized for their structural, colloidal and physicochemical properties (drug loading capacity/release, magnetic field triggered drug release, cell uptake and localization) in order to select the best performing system. With the focus on in vivo validation of such magnetic drug delivery systems for first time, we selected cisplatin as the drug, since it is a potent anticancer agent which exhibits serious side effects due to lack of selectivity. In addition, cisplatin would offer facile determination of the metal content in the animal tissues for biodistribution studies. Alongside post-mortem Pt determination in the tissues, the biodistribution of the drug nanocarriers was also monitored in real time with PET-CT (positron emission tomography/computed tomography) with and without the presence of magnetic field gradients; using a novel chelator-free method, the nanoparticles were radiolabeled with 68Ga without having to alter their structure with chemical modifications for conjugation of radiochelators. The ability to be radiolabeled in such a straightforward but very robust way, along with their measured high MRI response, renders them attractive for dual imaging, which is an important functionality for translational investigations. Their anticancer properties were evaluated in vitro and in vivo, in a cisplatin resistant HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma model, with and without the presence of magnetic field gradients. Enhanced anticancer efficacy and reduced toxicity was recorded for the cisplatin-loaded nanocarriers in comparison to the free cisplatin, particularly when a magnetic field gradient was applied at the tumor site. Post mortem and real-time tissue distribution studies did not reveal increased cisplatin concentration in the tumor site, suggesting that the enhanced anticancer efficacy of the cisplatin-loaded nanocarriers is driven by mechanisms other than increased cisplatin accumulation in the tumors.

Abstract
Metal ion-assisted drug loading model, in which metal ion was used to modify the microstructure of lipid layer, has been developed to improve drug loading efficiency of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs). The microstructure and properties of metal ion-assisted cisplatin-loading SLNs were investigated by infra-red spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and zetasizer. The reactions of hydrogenated soybean lecithin with Zn(2+), Cu(2+), Mn(2+ )and Mg(2+ )have been detected; the mechanism for higher drug encapsulation efficiency (EE) has been investigated. In metal ion introduction SLNs, the compact degree of the lipid molecules was increased due to the electrostatic interaction between metal ions and phospholipid acyl and choline polarity groups, which result in increasing of drug EE. Meanwhile, these electrostatic interactions slowed the releasing rate of encapsulated drug. The study of cytotoxic activity in vitro indicated that the cell cytotoxicity of metal ions introduction SLNs depended on both cell uptake of SLNs and drug releasing from SLNs.

Abstract
A reproducible double emulsion/solvent evaporation procedure is developed to formulate magnetic solid lipid nanoparticles (average size≈180 nm) made of iron oxide cores embedded within a glyceryl trimyristate solid matrix. The physicochemical characterization of the nanocomposites ascertained the efficacy of the preparation conditions in their production, i.e. surface properties (electrokinetic and thermodynamic data) were almost indistinguishable from those of the solid lipid nanomatrix, while electron microscopy characterizations and X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the satisfactory coverage of the magnetite nuclei. Hemocompatibility of the particles was established in vitro. Hysteresis cycle determinations defined the appropriate magnetic responsiveness of the nanocomposites, and their heating characteristics were investigated in a high frequency alternating gradient of magnetic field: a constant maximum temperature of 46 °C was obtained within 40 min. Finally, in vitro tests performed on human HT29 colon adenocarcinoma cells demonstrated a promising decrease in cell viability after treatment with the nanocomposites and exposure to that alternating electromagnetic field. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that such type of nanoformulation with very promising hyperthermia characteristics has been developed for therapeutic aims.

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays a very critical role in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease (PD), which is the second most common neurodegenerative disease among elderly people worldwide. Increasing evidence has suggested that phytobioactive compounds show enhanced benefits in cell and animal models of PD. Curcumin, resveratrol, ginsenosides, quercetin, and catechin are phyto-derived bioactive compounds with important roles in the prevention and treatment of PD. However, in vivo studies suggest that their concentrations are very low to cross blood-brain barrier thereby it limits bioavailability, stability, and dissolution at target sites in the brain. To overcome these problems, nanophytomedicine with the controlled size of 1-100 nm is used to maximize efficiency in the treatment of PD. Nanosizing of phytobioactive compounds enhances the permeability into the brain with maximized efficiency and stability. Several nanodelivery techniques, including solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructured lipid carriers, nanoliposomes, and nanoniosomes can be used for controlled delivery of nanobioactive compounds to brain. Nanocompounds, such as ginsenosides (19.9 nm) synthesized using a nanoemulsion technique, showed enhanced bioavailability in the rat brain. Here, we discuss the most recent trends and applications in PD, including 1) the role of phytobioactive compounds in reducing oxidative stress and their bioavailability; 2) the role of nanotechnology in reducing oxidative stress during PD; 3) nanodelivery systems; and 4) various nanophytobioactive compounds and their role in PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical cancer chemotherapy calls for the efficiently delivery of anticancer drug into cancer cells by nanoparticles. In this study, folate (FA) modified, cisplatin (CIS)-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) were constructed and evaluated. METHODS FA containing polyethylene glycol (PEG)-distearoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DSPE) (FA-PEG-DSPE) was synthesized. FA-PEG-DSPE modified, CIS-loaded NLCs (FA-CIS-NLCs) were prepared. Their particle size, zeta potential, drug encapsulation efficiency (EE) and in vitro delivery behavior were evaluated. In vitro cytotoxicity study of FA-CIS-NLCs was tested in human cervix adenocarcinoma cell line (HeLa cells). In vivo anti-tumor efficacies of the carriers were evaluated on a mice-bearing cervical cancer model. RESULTS The optimum FA-CIS-NLCs formulations have a particle size of 143.2 nm and a +25.7 mV surface charge. FA-CIS-NLCs displayed the best anti-tumor activity than other formulations in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrated that FA-CIS-NLCs were efficient in selective delivery to cancer cells over-expressing FA receptors (FRs). FA-CIS-NLCs targeted transfer CIS to the cervical cancer cells, enhance the anti-tumor capacity. The novel constructed NLCs could function as outstanding nanocarriers for the delivery of drugs for the targeted treatment of cervical cancers.
