Abstract
Objective: To conduct bibliometric analysis of the application of inorganic nanomaterials to autoimmune diseases to characterize current research trends and to visualize past and emerging trends in this field in the past 15 years. Methods: The evolution and thematic trends of the application of inorganic nanomaterials to autoimmune diseases from January 1, 1985, to March 15, 2024, were analyzed by bibliometric analysis of data retrieved and extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. A total of 734 relevant reports in the literature were evaluated according to specific characteristics such as year of publication, journal, institution, country/region, references, and keywords. VOSviewer was used to build co-authorship analysis, co-occurrence analysis, co-citation analysis, and network visualization. Some important subtopics identified by bibliometric characterization are further discussed and reviewed. Result: From 2009 to 2024, annual publications worldwide increased from 11 to 95, an increase of 764%. ACS Nano published the most papers (14) with the most citations (1372). China (230 papers, 4922 citations) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (36 papers, 718 citations) are the most productive and influential country and institution, respectively. The first 100 keywords were co-clustered to form four clusters: (1) the application of inorganic nanomaterials in drug delivery, (2) the application of inorganic nano-biosensing to autoimmune diseases, (3) the use of inorganic nanomaterials for imaging applied to autoimmune diseases, and (4) the application of inorganic nanomaterials in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Combination therapy, microvesicles, photothermal therapy (PTT), targeting, diagnostics, transdermal, microneedling, silver nanoparticles, psoriasis, and inflammatory cytokines are the latest high-frequency keywords, marking the emerging frontier of inorganic nanomaterials in the field of autoimmune diseases. Sub-topics were further discussed to help researchers determine the scope of research topics and plan research directions. Conclusion: Over the past 39 years, the application of inorganic nanotechnology to the field of autoimmune diseases shows extensive cooperation between countries and institutions, showing a continuous increase in the number of reports in the literature, and has clinical translation prospects. Future research should further improve the safety of inorganic nanomaterials, clarify the mechanism of action of nanomaterials, establish a standardized nanomaterial preparation and performance evaluation system, and ultimately achieve the goal of early detection and precise treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a kind of synovitis and progressive joint destruction disease. Dysregulated immune cell activation, inflammatory cytokine overproduction, and subsequent reactive oxidative species (ROS) production contribute to the RA process. Carbohydrates, including cellulose, chitosan, alginate and dextran, are among the most abundant and important biomolecules in nature and are widely used in biomedicine. Carbohydrate-based micro/nanoparticles(M/NPs) as functional excipients have the ability to improve the bioavailability, solubility and stability of numerous drugs used in RA therapy. For on-demand therapy, smart reactive M/NPs have been developed to respond to a variety of chemical and physical stimuli, including light, temperature, enzymes, pH and ROS, alternating their physical and macroscopic properties, resulting in innovative new drug delivery systems. In particular, advanced products with targeted dextran or hyaluronic acid are exploiting multiple beneficial properties at the same time. In addition to those that respond, there are promising new derivatives in development with microenvironment and chronotherapy effects. In this review, we provide an overview of these recent developments and an outlook on how this class of agents will further shape the landscape of drug delivery for RA treatment.

Abstract
For the drug delivery system, drug carriers' selection is critical to the drug's success in reaching the desired target. Drug carriers from natural biopolymers are preferred over synthetic materials due to their biocompatibility. The use of polysaccharide gums in the drug delivery system has received considerable attention in recent years. Polysaccharide gums are renewable resources and abundantly found in nature. They could be isolated from marine algae, microorganisms, and higher plants. In terms of carbohydrates, the gums are water-soluble, non-starch polysaccharides with high commercial value. Polysaccharide gums are widely used for controlled-release products, capsules, medicinal binders, wound healing agents, capsules, and tablet excipients. One of the essential applications of polysaccharide gum is drug delivery systems. The various kinds of polysaccharide gums obtained from different plants, marine algae, and microorganisms for the drug delivery system application are discussed comprehensively in this review paper.

Abstract
A drug-delivery system consisting of an inorganic host-layered double hydroxide (LDH)-and an anticancer drug-methotrexate (MTX)-was prepared via the intercalation route (MTX-LDH), and its hematocompatibility was investigated. Hemolysis, a red blood cell counting assay, and optical microscopy revealed that the MTX-LDH had no harmful toxic effect on blood cells. Both scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy exhibited that the MTX-LDH particles softly landed on the concave part inred blood cells without serious morphological changes of the cells. The time-dependent change in the surface charge and hydrodynamic radius of MTX-LDH in the plasma condition demonstrated that the proteins can be gently adsorbed on the MTX-LDH particles, possibly through protein corona, giving rise to good colloidal stability. The fluorescence quenching assay was carried out to monitor the interaction between MTX-LDH and plasma protein, and the result showed that the MTX-LDH had less dynamic interaction with protein compared with MTX alone, due to the capsule moiety of the LDH host. It was verified by a quartz crystal microbalance assay that the surface interaction between MTX-LDH and protein was reversible and reproducible, and the type of protein corona was a soft one, having flexibility toward the biological environment.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are chronic and progressive inflammatory joint diseases that affect a large population worldwide. Intra-articular administration of various therapeutics is applied to alleviate pain, prevent further progression, and promote cartilage regeneration and bone remodeling in both OA and RA. However, the effectiveness of intra-articular injection with traditional drugs is uncertain and controversial due to issues such as rapid drug clearance and the barrier afforded by the dense structure of cartilage. Nanoparticles can improve the efficacy of intra-articular injection by facilitating controlled drug release, prolonged retention time, and enhanced penetration into joint tissue. This review systematically summarizes nanoparticle-based therapies for OA and RA management. Firstly, we explore the interaction between nanoparticles and joints, including articular fluids and cells. This is followed by a comprehensive analysis of current nanoparticles designed for OA/RA, divided into two categories based on therapeutic mechanisms: direct therapeutic nanoparticles and nanoparticles-based drug delivery systems. We highlight nanoparticle design for tissue/cell targeting and controlled drug release before discussing challenges of nanoparticle-based therapies for efficient OA and RA treatment and their future clinical translation. We anticipate that rationally designed local injection of nanoparticles will be more effective, convenient, and safer than the current therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Two-dimensional nanomaterials, particularly layered double hydroxides (LDHs), have been widely applied in the biomedical field owing to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, controllable drug release/loading ability, and enhanced cellular permeability. Since the first study analyzing intercalative LDHs in 1999, numerous studies have investigated their biomedical applications, including drug delivery and imaging; recent research has focused on the design and development of multifunctional LDHs. This review summarizes the synthetic strategies and in-vivo and in-vitro therapeutic actions and targeting properties of single-function LDH-based nanohybrids and recently reported (from 2019 to 2023) multifunctional systems developed for drug delivery and/or bio-imaging.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that gravely jeopardizes the quality of life of numerous people. Methotrexate (MTX) is a disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug commonly used in clinics; however, it suffers from slow onset, moderate efficacy, and adverse reactions such as renal dysfunction, myelosuppression, and bone erosion after long-term treatment. Here, we explored macrophage targeted delivery of MTX using mannose-installed chimaeric polymersomes (Man-PMTX) as an advanced treatment for RA. Man-PMTX exhibited high (∼18 wt%) and robust loading of MTX, uniform size of 51-55 nm, minimal hemolytic activity, and glutathione-actuated drug release property. Man-PMTX showed better uptake by activated macrophages than PMTX, and more repolarization of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) to anti-inflammatory M2 type macrophages and less secretion of TNF-α and IL-1β compared with free MTX and PMTX. In vivo studies revealed that Man-PMTX showed significantly higher accumulation in inflammatory joints than in healthy joints and effectively treated RA by relieving inflammation, repolarizing macrophages from M1 type to M2 type, and mitigating proinflammatory cytokines. Accordingly, Man-PMTX effectively protected the synovium and bone from damage. Mannose-mediated nanodelivery of methotrexate to macrophages appears to be an attractive strategy to augment rheumatoid arthritis therapy.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic immune disease that causes joint affection and even disability. Activated macrophages play an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of RA by producing pro-inflammatory factors. The use of dexamethasone (DXM) is effective in relieving the intractable pain and inflammatory progression of RA. However, long-term use of DXM is strongly associated with increased rates of diabetes, osteoporosis, bone fractures, and mortality, which hinders its clinical use. In this study, the dextran sulfate-cisaconitic anhydride-dexamethasone (DXM@DS-cad-DXM) micelles were prepared to treat RA by selectively recognizing scavenger receptor (SR) on the activated macrophages. The potent targeting property of DXM@DS-cad-DXM micelles to SR was by fluorescence microscope. Additionally, the effective accumulation and powerful anti-inflammatory activity of DXM@DS-cad-DXM micelles were observed in the inflamed joints of adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA) rats after intravenous administration. Overall, DXM@DS-cad-DXM micelles are a potentially effective nanomedicine for targeted therapy of RA.

Abstract
Dextran sulfate (DXS) is a hydrophilic, non-toxic, biodegradable, biocompatible and safe biopolymer. These biomedically relevant characteristics make DXS a promising building block in the development of nanocarrier systems for several biomedical applications, including imaging and drug delivery. DXS polyanion can bind with metal oxide nanomaterials, biological receptors and therapeutic drug molecules. By taking advantage of these intriguing properties, DXS is used to functionalize or construct nanocarriers for specific applications. In particular, the diagnostic or therapeutic active agent-loaded DXS nanoparticles are prepared by simple coating, formation of polyelectrolyte complexes with other positively charged polymers or through self-assembly of amphiphilic DXS derivatives. These nanoparticles show a potential to localize the active agents at the pathological site and minimize undesired side effects. As DXS can recognize and be taken up by macrophage surface receptors, it is also used as a targeting ligand for drug delivery. Besides as a nanocarrier scaffold material, DXS has intrinsic therapeutic potential. DXS binds to thrombin, acts as an anticoagulant and exhibits an inhibitory effect against coagulation, retrovirus, scrapie virus and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Herein, biomedical applications involving the use of DXS as nanocarriers for drugs, biomolecules, and imaging agents have been reviewed. A special focus has been made on strategies used for loading and delivering of drugs and biomolecules meant for treating several diseases, including cancer, inflammatory diseases and ocular disease.

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
Oral delivery is considered the favoured route of administration for both local and systemic delivery of active molecules. Formulation of drugs in conventional systems and nanoparticles has provided opportunities for targeting the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, increasing drug solubility and bioavailability. Despite the achievements of these delivery approaches, the development of a product with the ability of delivering drug molecules at a specific site and according to patients' needs remains a challenging endeavour. The complexity of the physicochemical properties of colloidal systems, their stability in different regions of the gastrointestinal tract, and interaction with the restrictive biological barriers hampered their success for oral precise medicine. To overcome these issues, nanoparticles have been combined with polymers to create hybrid nanosystems, namely nanocomposites. They offer enormous possibilities of structural and mechanical modifications to both nanoparticles and polymeric matrixes to generate systems with new properties, functions, and applications for oral delivery. In this review, nanocomposites' physicochemical and functional properties intended to target specific regions of the GI tract-oral cavity, stomach, small bowel, and colon-are analysed. In parallel, it is provided an insight in the nanocomposite solutions for oral delivery intended for systemic and local absorption, together with a focus on inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). Additional difficulties in managing IBD related to the alteration in the physiology of the intestine are described. Finally, future perspectives and opportunities for advancement in this field are discussed.
