Abstract
Autoimmune disorders are characterized by aberrant T cell and B cell reactivity to the body's own components, resulting in tissue destruction and organ dysfunction. Autoimmune diseases affect a wide range of people in many parts of the world and have become one of the major concerns in public health. In recent years, there have been substantial progress in our understanding of the epidemiology, risk factors, pathogenesis and mechanisms of autoimmune diseases. Current approved therapeutic interventions for autoimmune diseases are mainly non-specific immunomodulators and may cause broad immunosuppression that leads to serious adverse effects. To overcome the limitations of immunosuppressive drugs in treating autoimmune diseases, precise and target-specific strategies are urgently needed. To date, significant advances have been made in our understanding of the mechanisms of immune tolerance, offering a new avenue for developing antigen-specific immunotherapies for autoimmune diseases. These antigen-specific approaches have shown great potential in various preclinical animal models and recently been evaluated in clinical trials. This review describes the common epidemiology, clinical manifestation and mechanisms of autoimmune diseases, with a focus on typical autoimmune diseases including multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and sjögren's syndrome. We discuss the current therapeutics developed in this field, highlight the recent advances in the use of nanomaterials and mRNA vaccine techniques to induce antigen-specific immune tolerance.

Lactobacillus casei displaying MCP2α and FlaC delivered by PLA microspheres effectively enhances the immune protection of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) against LMBV infection. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2024; 153:109870.

Abstract
Largemouth bass ranavirus (LMBV) seriously affects the development of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) industry and causes huge economic losses. Oral vaccine can be a promising method for viral disease precaution. In this study, MCP2α was identified as a valuable epitope region superior to MCP and MCP2 of LMBV by neutralizing antibody experiments. Then, recombinant Lactobacillus casei expressing the fusion protein MCP2αC (MCP2α as antigen, C represents flagellin C from Aeromonas hydrophila as adjuvant) on surface was constructed and verified. Further, PLA microsphere vaccine loading recombinant MCP2αC L. casei was prepared. The PLA microspheres vaccine were observed by scanning electron microscopy and showed a smooth, regular spherical surface with a particle size distribution between 100 and 200 μm. Furthermore, we evaluated the tolerance of PLA-MCP2αC vaccine in simulated gastric fluid and simulated intestinal fluid, and the results showed that PLA-MCP2αC can effectively resist the gastrointestinal environment. Moreover, the protective effect of PLA-MCP2αC against LMBV was evaluated after oral immunization and LMBV challenge. The results showed that PLA-MCP2αC effectively up-regulated the activity of serum biochemical enzymes (T-SOD, T-AOC, LZM, complement C3) and induced the mRNA expression of representative immune genes (IL-1β, TNF-α, IFN-γ, MHC-IIα, Mx, IgM) in spleen and head kidney tissues. The survival rate of largemouth bass vaccinated with PLA-MCP2αC increased from 24 % to 68 %. Meanwhile, PLA-MCP2αC inhibited the LMBV burden in spleen, head kidney and liver tissues and attenuated tissue damage in spleen. These results suggested that PLA-MCP2αC can be used as a candidate oral vaccine against LMBV infection in aquaculture.

Abstract
Background Tumor vaccines have achieved remarkable progress in treating patients with various tumors in clinical studies. Nevertheless, extensive research has also revealed that tumor vaccines are not up to expectations for the treatment of solid tumors due to their low immunogenicity. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a tumor vaccine that can stimulate a broad anti-tumor immune response. Methods In this work, we developed a nanovaccine (NP-TCL@APS), which includes nanoparticles loaded with colorectal cancer tumor cell lysates (TCL) and Astragalus polysaccharides (APS) into poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) to induce a robust innate immune response. The NP-TCL@APS was identified by transmission electron microscopy and Malvern laser particle size analyzer. The killing and immune activation effects of NP-TCL@APS were evaluated in vitro. Finally, safety and anti-tumor efficacy were evaluated in the colorectal cancer tumor-bearing mouse model. Results We found that NP-TCL@APS was preferentially uptaken by DC and further promoted the activation of DC in vitro. Additionally, nanoparticles codelivery of TCL and APS enhanced the antigen-specific CD8+ T cell response and suppressed the growth of tumors in mouse models with good biocompatibility. Conclusion We successfully prepared a nanovaccine termed NP-TCL@APS, which can promote the maturation of DC and induce strong responses by T lymphocytes to exert anti-tumor effects. The strategy proposed here is promising for generating a tumor vaccine and can be extended to various types of cancers.

Abstract
Vaccination is the most effective method for preventing infectious diseases. Oral vaccinations have attracted much attention due to the ability to boost intestinal and systemic immunity. The focus of this study was to develop a poly (lactide-co-glycolide) acid (PLGA)-based ternary polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) with chitosan, sodium alginate, and transmembrane peptides R8 for the delivery of antigen proteins. In this study, the antigen protein (HBf), consisting of the Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) antigens HBHA, Ag85B, and Bfra, was combined with R8 to generate self-assembled conjugates. The results showed that PEC presented a cross-linked reticular structure to protect the encapsulated proteins in the simulated gastric fluid. Then, the nanocomposite separated into individual nanoparticles after entering the simulated intestinal fluid. The ternary PEC with R8 promoted the in vivo uptake of antigens by intestinal lymphoid tissue. Moreover, the ternary PEC administered orally to mice promoted the secretion of specific antibodies and intestinal mucosal IgA. In addition, in the mouse models of MAP infection, the ternary PEC enhanced splenic T cell responses, thus reducing bacterial load and liver pathology score. These results suggested that this ternary electrolyte complex could be a promising delivery platform for oral subunit vaccine candidates, not limited to MAP infection.

Abstract
Biodegradable polymers have been extensively researched in the field of biomedicine. Polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), a biodegradable polymer material, has been widely used in drug delivery systems and has shown great potential in various medical fields, including vaccines, tissue engineering such as bone regeneration and wound healing, and 3D printing. Cancer, a group of diseases with high mortality rates worldwide, has recently garnered significant attention in the field of immune therapy research. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the delivery function of PLGA in tumor immunotherapy. In tumor immunotherapy, PLGA can serve as a carrier to load antigens on its surface, thereby enhancing the immune system's ability to attack tumor cells. Additionally, PLGA can be used to formulate tumor vaccines and immunoadjuvants, thereby enhancing the efficacy of tumor immunotherapy. PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) can also enhance the effectiveness of tumor immunotherapy by regulating the activity and differentiation of immune cells, and by improving the expression and presentation of tumor antigens. Furthermore, due to the diverse physical properties and surface modifications of PLGA, it has a wider range of potential applications in tumor immunotherapy through the loading of various types of drugs or other innovative substances. We aim to highlight the recent advances and challenges of plga in the field of oncology therapy to stimulate further research and development of innovative PLGA-based approaches, and more effective and personalized cancer therapies.

Polydopamine-based nano adjuvant as a promising vaccine carrier induces significant immune responses against Acinetobacter baumannii-associated pneumonia. Int J Pharm 2024; 654:123961.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of polydopamine nanoparticles (PDANPs) as a delivery system for intranasal antigen administration to prevent Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii)-associated pneumonia. In the in vitro phase, the conserved outer membrane protein 22 (Omp22)-encoding gene of A. baumannii was cloned, expressed, and purified, resulting in the production of recombinant Omp22 (rOmp22), which was verified using western blot. PDANPs were synthesized using dopamine monomers and loaded with rOmp22 through physical adsorption. The rOmp22-loaded PDANPs were characterized in terms of size, size distribution, zeta potential, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), loading capacity, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), release profile, and cytotoxicity. In the in vivo phase, the adjuvant effect of rOmp22-loaded PDANPs was evaluated in terms of eliciting immune responses, including humoral and cytokine levels (IL-4, IL-17, and IFN-γ), as well as protection challenge. The rOmp22-loaded PDANPs were spherical with a size of 205 nm, a zeta potential of -14 mV, and a loading capacity of approximately 35.7 %. The released rOmp22 from nontoxic rOmp22-loaded PDANPs over 20 days was approximately 41.5 %, with preserved rOmp22 integrity. The IgG2a/IgG1 ratio and IFN-γ levels were significantly higher in immunized mice with rOmp22-loaded-PDANPs than in rOmp22-alum, naive Omp22, and control groups. Furthermore, rOmp22-loaded PDANPs induced effective protection against infection in the experimental challenge and showed more normal structures in the lung histopathology assay. The results of this study suggest the potential of PDANPs as a nano-adjuvant for inducing strong immune responses to combat A. baumannii.

Abstract
In order to improve bioavailability, stability, control release, and target delivery of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), as well as to mask their bitter taste, to increase their efficacy, and to minimize their side effects, a variety of microencapsulation (including nanoencapsulation, particle size <100 nm) technologies have been widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. Commonly used microencapsulation technologies are emulsion, coacervation, extrusion, spray drying, freeze-drying, molecular inclusion, microbubbles and microsponge, fluidized bed coating, supercritical fluid encapsulation, electro spinning/spray, and polymerization. In this review, APIs are categorized by their molecular complexity: small APIs (compounds with low molecular weight, like Aspirin, Ibuprofen, and Cannabidiol), medium APIs (compounds with medium molecular weight like insulin, peptides, and nucleic acids), and living microorganisms (such as probiotics, bacteria, and bacteriophages). This article provides an overview of these microencapsulation technologies including their processes, matrix, and their recent applications in microencapsulation of APIs. Furthermore, the advantages and disadvantages of these common microencapsulation technologies in terms of improving the efficacy of APIs for pharmaceutical treatments are comprehensively analyzed. The objective is to summarize the most recent progresses on microencapsulation of APIs for enhancing their bioavailability, control release, target delivery, masking their bitter taste and stability, and thus increasing their efficacy and minimizing their side effects. At the end, future perspectives on microencapsulation for pharmaceutical applications are highlighted.

Abstract
Colloidosomes are microcapsules whose shells are composed of cumulated or fused colloidal particles. When colloidosomes are used for in situ encapsulation, it is still a challenge to achieve a high encapsulation efficiency and controllable release by an effective fabrication method. Herein, we present a highly efficient route for the large-scale preparation of colloidosomes. The biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) nanoparticles (NPs) as shell materials can be synthesized using an antisolvent precipitation method, and the possible formation mechanism was given through the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The theoretical values are basically consistent with the experimental results. Through the use of the modified and unmodified PLA NPs, the colloidosomes with controllable shell porosities can be easily constructed using spray drying technology. We also investigate the mechanism of colloidosomes successfully self-assembled by PLA NPs with various factors of inlet temperature, feed rate, and flow rates of compressed air. Furthermore, avermectin (AVM) was used as a model for in situ encapsulation and a controllable release. The spherical modified colloidosomes encapsulating AVM not only achieve a small mean diameter of 1.57 μm but also realize a high encapsulation efficiency of 89.7% and impermeability, which can be further verified by the MD simulation. AVM molecules gather around and clog the shell pores during the evaporation of water molecules. More importantly, the PLA colloidosomes also reveal excellent UV-shielding properties, which can protect AVM from photodegradation.

Abstract
Despite the fact that numerous immunotherapy-based drugs have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of primary and metastatic tumors, only a small proportion of the population can benefit from them because of primary and acquired resistances. Moreover, the translation of immunotherapy from the bench to the clinical practice is being challenging because of the short half-lives of the involved molecules, the difficulties to accomplish their delivery to the target sites, and some serious adverse effects that are being associated with these approaches. The emergence of drug delivery vehicles in the field of immunotherapy is helping to overcome these difficulties and limitations and this review describes how, providing some illustrative examples. Moreover, this article provides an exhaustive review of the studies that have been published to date on the particular case of hematological cancers. (Created with BioRender).

Abstract
Background: B cells are pivotal in systemic lupus erythematosus and autoimmune disease pathogenesis. Materials & methods: To address this, Nile Red-labeled polylactic acid nanoparticles (NR-PLA NPs) loaded with the JAK inhibitor baricitinib (BARI), specifically targeting JAK1 and JAK2 in B cells, were developed. Results: Physicochemical characterization confirmed NP stability over 30 days. NR-PLA NPs were selectively bound and internalized by CD19+ B cells, sparing other leukocytes. In contrast to NR-PLA NPs, BARI-NR-PLA NPs significantly dampened B-cell activation, proliferation and plasma cell differentiation in healthy controls. They also inhibited key cytokine production. These effects often surpassed those of equimolar-free BARI. Conclusion: This study underscores the potential of PLA NPs to regulate autoreactive B cells, offering a novel therapeutic avenue for autoimmune diseases.

Impact of local drug delivery and natural agents as new target strategies against periodontitis: new challenges for personalized therapeutic approach. Ther Adv Chronic Dis 2023; 14:20406223231191043.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a persistent inflammation of the soft tissue around the teeth that affects 60% of the population in the globe. The self-maintenance of the inflammatory process can cause periodontal damage from the alveolar bone resorption to tooth loss in order to contrast the effects of periodontitis, the main therapy used is scaling and root planing (SRP). At the same time, studying the physiopathology of periodontitis has shown the possibility of using a local drug delivery system as an adjunctive therapy. Using local drug delivery devices in conjunction with SRP therapy for periodontitis is a potential tool since it increases drug efficacy and minimizes negative effects by managing drug release. This review emphasized how the use of local drug delivery agents and natural agents could be promising adjuvants for the treatment of periodontitis patients affected or not by cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other system problems. Moreover, the review evidences the current issues and new ideas that can inspire potential later study for both basic research and clinical practice for a tailored approach.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Despite improvements in the standard of care for patients with heart diseases, including innovation in pharmacotherapy and surgical interventions, none have yet been proven effective to prevent the progression to heart failure. Cardiac transplantation is the last resort for patients with severe heart failure, but donor shortages remain a roadblock. Cardiac regenerative strategies include cell-based therapeutics, gene therapy, direct reprogramming of non-cardiac cells, acellular biologics, and tissue engineering methods to restore damaged hearts. Significant advancements have been made over the past several decades within each of these fields. This review focuses on the advancements of: 1) cell-based cardiac regenerative therapies, 2) the use of noncoding RNA to induce endogenous cell proliferation, and 3) application of bioengineering methods to promote retention and integration of engrafted cells. Different cell sources have been investigated, including adult stem cells derived from bone marrow and adipose cells, cardiosphere-derived cells, skeletal myoblasts, and pluripotent stem cells. In addition to cell-based transplantation approaches, there have been accumulating interest over the past decade in inducing endogenous CM proliferation for heart regeneration, particularly with the use of noncoding RNAs such as miRNAs and lncRNAs. Bioengineering applications have focused on combining cell-transplantation approaches with fabrication of a porous, vascularized scaffold using biomaterials and advanced bio-fabrication techniques that may offer enhanced retention of transplanted cells, with the hope that these cells would better engraft with host tissue to improve cardiac function. This review summarizes the present status and future challenges of cardiac regenerative therapies.

Abstract
Given the limitations of conventional invasive vaccines, such as the requirement for a cold chain system and trained personnel, needle-based injuries, and limited immunogenicity, non-invasive vaccines have gained significant attention. Although numerous approaches for formulating and administrating non-invasive vaccines have emerged, each of them faces its own challenges associated with vaccine bioavailability, toxicity, and other issues. To overcome such limitations, researchers have created novel supplementary materials and delivery systems. The goal of this review article is to provide vaccine formulation researchers with the most up-to-date information on vaccine formulation and the immunological mechanisms available, to identify the technical challenges associated with the commercialization of non-invasive vaccines, and to guide future research and development efforts.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that the association of antigens in microparticles increases the anti-Leishmania vaccine immunogenicity. This study aims to investigate the in situ effect of the adjuvant performance consisting of chitosan-coated poly(D,L-lactic) acid submicrometric particles (SMP) and analyze the inflammatory profile and toxicity. Two formulations were selected, SMP1, containing poly(D,L-lactide) (PLA) 1% wt/v and chitosan 1% wt/v; and SMP2, containing PLA 5% wt/v and chitosan 5% wt/v. After a single dose of the unloaded SMP1 or SMP2 in mice, the SMPs promoted cell recruitment without tissue damage. In addition, besides the myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity having demonstrated similar results among the analyzed groups, a progressive reduction in the levels of N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) until 72 h was observed for SMPs. While IL-6 levels were similar among all the analyzed groups along the kinetics, only the SMPs groups had detectable levels of TNF-α. Additionally, the Leishmania braziliensis antigen was encapsulated in SMPs (SMP1Ag and SMP2Ag), and mice were vaccinated with three doses. The immunogenicity analysis by flow cytometry demonstrated a reduction in NK (CD3-CD49+) cells in all the SMPs groups, in addition to impairment in the T cells subsets (CD3+CD4+) and CD3+CD8+) and B cells (CD19+) of the SMP2 group. The resulting data demonstrate that the chitosan-coated SMP formulations stimulate the early events of an innate immune response, suggesting their ability to increase the immunogenicity of co-administered Leishmania antigens.

Abstract
As drug carriers for cancer treatment, stimulus-responsive polymer nanomaterials are a major research focus. These nanocarriers respond to specific stimulus signals (e.g., pH, redox, hypoxia, enzymes, temperature, and light) to precisely control drug release, thereby improving drug uptake rates in cancer cells and reducing drug damage to normal cells. Therefore, we reviewed the research progress in the past 6 years and the mechanisms underpinning single and multiple stimulus-responsive polymer nanocarriers in tumour therapy. The advantages and disadvantages of various stimulus-responsive polymeric nanomaterials are summarised, and the future outlook is provided to provide a scientific and theoretical rationale for further research, development, and utilisation of stimulus-responsive nanocarriers.

Abstract
Oral cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the mouth and is one of the deadliest malignancies in the world. Currently surgical, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy are most common treatments. Better treatment and early detection strategies are required. Chemotherapeutic drugs fail frequently due to toxicity and poor tumor targeting. There are high chances of failure of chemotherapeutic drugs due to toxicity. Active, passive, and immunity-targeting techniques are devised for tumor-specific activity. Nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems are the best available solution and important for precise targeting. Nanoparticles, liposomes, exosomes, and cyclodextrins are nano-based carriers for drug delivery. Nanotechnology is being used to develop new techniques such as intratumoral injections, microbubble mediated ultrasonic therapy, phototherapies, and site-specific delivery. This systematic review delves into the details of such targeted and nano-based drug delivery systems in order to improve patient health and survival rates in oral cancer.

Abstract
Hepatitis B virus remains a major medical burden with more than 250 million chronically infected patients worldwide and 900,000 deaths each year, due to the disease progression towards severe complications (cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma). Despite the availability of a prophylactic vaccine, this infection is still pandemic in Western Pacific and African regions, where around 6% of the adult population is infected. Among novel anti-HBV strategies, innovative drug delivery systems, such as nanoparticle platforms to deliver vaccine antigens or therapeutic molecules have been investigated. Here, we developed polylactic acid-based biodegradable nanoparticles as an innovative and efficient vaccine. They are twice functionalized by (i) the entrapment of Pam3CSK4, an immunomodulator and ligand to Toll-Like-Receptor 1/2, and by (ii) the adsorption/coating of myristoylated (2-48) derived PreS1 from the HBV surface antigen, identified as the major viral attachment site on hepatocytes. We demonstrate that such formulations mimic HBV virion with an efficient peptide recognition by the immune system, and elicit potent and durable antibody responses in naive mice during at least one year. We also show that the most efficient in vitro viral neutralization was observed with NP-Pam3CSK4-dPreS1 sera. The immunogenicity of the derived HBV antigen is modulated by the likely synergistic action of both the dPreS1 coated nanovector and the adjuvant moiety. This formulation represents a promising vaccine alternative to fight HBV infection.

Abstract
To observe the metabolic changes and antialcoholic effect of Puerarin-PLGA nanoparticles (PUE-NP) in mice. PUE-NP was prepared and characterized by particle size distribution and morphology. The mouse models with acute alcoholism were established to observe their behavioral changes after alcohol poisoning. The expressions of biologically active enzymes such as CRE, BUN, AST, ALT in serum and SOD and TLR4 in liver of mice in each group were detected, and the pathological changes in liver and kidney tissues were observed by HE staining. The PUE-NP metabolism in mice was determined by in vitro release assay and HPLC. PUE-NP nanoparticles had good morphology and structure, and the mouse models with alcohol poisoning were established successfully. Compared with alcohol group, puerarin and PUE-NP increased the disappearance latency time of righting reflex, and the recovery time of righting reflex was significantly shortened. Water maze results showed that Puerarin and PUE-NP had inhibitory effect on impaired memory. HPLC results showed that PUE-NP reached its peak in mice after 1 h, and the content percentage was twice that of puerarin preparation alone, and the distribution time of puerarin concentration in vivo was prolonged, indicating that PLGA nanoparticles had a loading and slow-release effect on puerarin and increased the bioavailability of puerarin in mice. In addition, compared with the alcohol group, Puerarin and PUE-NP improved serum ALT, AST, CRE, and BUN levels in mice, enhanced SOD activity in liver, and inhibited TLR4 expression. The effect was better in the PUE-NP group than in the Puerarin group. PUE-NP delayed the release and metabolism of Puerarin and had better effect in the treatment of the alcoholic liver and kidney injury.

Abstract
Single dose slow-release vaccines herald a new era in vaccine administration. An ideal device for slow-release vaccine delivery would be minimally invasive and self-administered, making these approaches an attractive alternative for mass vaccination programs, particularly during the time of a pandemic. In this review article, we discuss the latest advances in this field, specifically for prophylactic vaccines able to prevent infectious diseases. Recent studies have found that slow-release vaccines elicit better immune responses and often do not require cold chain transportation and storage, thus drastically reducing the cost, streamlining distribution, and improving efficacy. This promise has attracted significant attention, especially when poor patient compliance of the standard multidose vaccine regimes is considered. Single dose slow-release vaccines are the next generation of vaccine tools that could overcome most of the shortcomings of present vaccination programs and be the next platform technology to combat future pandemics. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Emerging Technologies Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanomaterials and Implants Biology-Inspired Nanomaterials > Protein and Virus-Based Structures.

Abstract
Snakebite envenoming represents a worldwide public health issue. Suitable technologies have been investigated for encapsulated recombinant or native proteins capable of inducing an effective and long-lasting adaptive immune response. Nanoparticles are colloidal dispersions that have been used as drug delivery systems for bioactive biological compounds. Venom-loaded nanoparticles modulate the protein release and activate the immune response to produce specific antibodies. In this study, biocompatible cationic nanoparticles with Bothrops jararaca venom were prepared to be used as a novel immunoadjuvant that shows a similar or improved immune response in antibody production when compared to a conventional immunoadjuvant (aluminum hydroxide). We prepared stable, small-sized and spherical particles with high Bothrops jararaca venom protein association efficiency. The high protein loading efficiency, electrophoresis, and zeta potential results demonstrated that Bothrops jararaca venom is adsorbed on the particle surface, which remained as a stable colloidal dispersion over 6 weeks. The slow protein release occurred and followed parabolic diffusion release kinetics. The in vivo studies demonstrated that venom-loaded nanoparticles were able to produce an immune response similar to that of aluminum hydroxide. The cationic nanoparticles (CNp) as carriers of bioactive molecules, were successfully developed and demonstrated to be a promising immunoadjuvant.

Abstract
Diseases are a significant impediment to aquaculture's sustainable and healthy growth. The aquaculture industry is suffering significant financial losses as a result of the worsening water quality and increasing frequency of aquatic disease outbreaks caused by the expansion of aquaculture. Drug control, immunoprophylaxis, ecologically integrated control, etc. are the principal control strategies for fish infections. For a long time, the prevention and control of aquatic diseases have mainly relied on the use of various antibiotics and chemical drugs. However, long-term use of chemical inputs not only increases pathogenic bacteria resistance but also damages the fish and aquaculture environments, resulting in drug residues in aquatic products, severely impeding the development of the aquaculture industry. The development and use of aquatic vaccines are the safest and most effective ways to prevent aquatic animal diseases and preserve the health and sustainability of aquaculture. To give references for the development and implementation of aquatic vaccines, this study reviews the development history, types, inoculation techniques, mechanisms of action, development prospects, and challenges encountered with aquatic vaccines.

Abstract
Delayed diabetic wound healing is an adverse event that frequently leads to limb disability or loss. A novel and promising vehicle for the treatment of diabetic wounds is required for clinical purposes. The biocompatible and resorbable poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)-based fibrous membranes prepared by electrospinning that provide a sustained discharge of saxagliptin for diabetic wound healing were fabricated. The concentration of released saxagliptin in Dulbecco’s phosphate-buffered saline was analyzed for 30 days using high-performance liquid chromatography. The effectiveness of the eluted saxagliptin was identified using an endothelial progenitor cell migration assay in vitro and a diabetic wound healing in vivo. Greater hydrophilicity and water storage were shown in the saxagliptin-incorporated PLGA membranes than in the pristine PLGA membranes (both p < 0.001). For diabetic wound healing, the saxagliptin membranes accelerated the wound closure rate, the dermal thickness, and the heme oxygenase-1 level over the follicle areas compared to those in the pristine PLGA group at two weeks post-treatment. The saxagliptin group also had remarkably higher expressions of insulin-like growth factor I expression and transforming growth factor-β1 than the control group (p = 0.009 and p < 0.001, respectively) in diabetic wounds after treatment. The electrospun PLGA-based saxagliptin membranes exhibited excellent biomechanical and biological features that enhanced diabetic wound closure and increased the antioxidant activity, cellular granulation, and functionality.

Abstract
Infectious diseases caused by intracellular microorganisms such as Histoplasma capsulatum represent a significant challenge worldwide. Drug encapsulation into functionalized nanoparticles (NPs) is a valuable alternative to improving drug solubility and bioavailability, preventing undesirable interactions and drug degradation, and reaching the specific therapeutic target with lower doses. This work reports on Itraconazole (ITZ) encapsulated into core-shell-like polymeric NPs and functionalized with anti-F4/80 antibodies for their targeted and controlled release into macrophages. Uptake assay on co-culture showed significant differences between the uptake of functionalized and bare NPs, higher with functionalized NPs. In vitro assays showed that F4/80-NPs with 0.007 µg/mL of encapsulated ITZ eliminated the H. capsulatum fungus in co-culture with macrophages effectively compared to the bare NPs, without any cytotoxic effect on macrophages after 24 h interaction. Furthermore, encapsulated ITZ modulated the gene expression of anti and pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1, INF-Y, IL-6 and IL-10) on macrophages. Additionally, the anti-F4/80 antibody-coating enhanced natural and adequate antifungal response in the cells, exerting a synergistic effect that prevented the growth of the fungus at the intracellular level. Functionalized NPs can potentially improve macrophage-targeted therapy, increasing NPs endocytosis and intracellular drug concentration.

Abstract
Chemo-immunotherapy has gained increasing attention as one of the most promising combination therapy strategies to battle cancer. In this study, the therapeutic nanoparticles (TNPs) co-delivering doxorubicin (DOX) and IL-12 (IL-12) were developed for chemo-immunotherapy combination therapy on liver cancer. TNPs were synthesized based on the ionic interactions between cationic chitosan (Ch) and anionic poly-(glutamic acid) (PGA). DOX and IL-12 loaded in TNPs presented prolonged circulation in blood, efficient accumulation in tumors, and internalization in tumor cells. After that, DOX and IL-12 were co-released in the tumor microenvironment. The locally responsive property of TNPs could subsequently re-educate macrophages. More significantly, TNPs with no obvious side effects can remarkably inhibit the H22 tumor growth in vivo. A low dosage of loaded IL-12 in TNPs can effectively polarize macrophages toward the M1 phenotype to reduce tumor burden, further enhancing the antitumor efficacy. Our results suggest that the self-stabilized TNPs could be a secure and effective drug carrier for intravenous administration when deprived of protective agents.

Abstract
Haemonchus contortus (H. contortus) ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (Hc-ARF1) and Hepatocellular carcinoma-associated antigen 59 (Hc-HCA59) are recognized to largely regulate the immune responses of host cells. However, studies about the protective efficacy of the two molecules are poorly unknown. In this research, combinations of recombinant Hc-HCA59 (rHc-HCA59) and Hc-ARF1 (rHc-ARF1) proteins were amalgamated with poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles adjuvant in order to investigate their protection potential against H. contortus in goats. The results demonstrated that the levels of IgG, IgA, IgE, and IL-4 were noticeably enhanced in the rHc-HCA59 and rHc-ARF1 (rHc-HCA59+rHc-ARF1) group before H. contortus third-stage larvae (L3) challenge. After the L3 challenge, the levels of IL-17, IL-9, and TGF-β were considerably upregulated in the rHc-HCA59+rHc-ARF1 group. In the meantime, the abomasal worm burdens and the fecal eggs were reduced by 63.2% and 69.4% respectively in the rHc-HCA59+rHc-ARF1 group. According to the studies, PLGA nanoparticles immobilized with rHc-HCA59 and rHc-ARF1 proteins conferred partial protection and were expected to be a potential candidate for developing nano vaccines to combat goat haemonchosis.

Abstract
Over recent decades, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) based nano- and micro- drug delivery vehicles have been rapidly developed since PLGA was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Common factors that influence PLGA particle properties have been extensively studied by researchers, such as particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), surface morphology, zeta potential, and drug loading efficiency. These properties have all been found to be key factors for determining the drug release kinetics of the drug delivery particles. For drug delivery applications the drug release behavior is a critical property, and PLGA drug delivery systems are still plagued with the issue of burst release when a large portion of the drug is suddenly released from the particle rather than the controlled release the particles are designed for. Other properties of the particles can play a role in the drug release behavior, such as the glass transition temperature (Tg). The Tg, however, is an underreported property of current PLGA based drug delivery systems. This review summarizes the basic knowledge of the glass transition temperature in PLGA particles, the factors that influence the Tg, the effect of Tg on drug release behavior, and presents the recent awareness of the influence of Tg on drug delivery applications.

Abstract
The sudden outbreak of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic in December 2019 caused crises and health emergencies worldwide. The rapid spread of the virus created an urgent need for the development of an effective vaccine and mass immunization to achieve herd immunity. Efforts of scientific teams at universities and pharmaceutical companies around the world allowed for the development of various types of preparations and made it possible to start the vaccination process. However, it appears that the developed vaccines are not effective enough and do not guarantee long-lasting immunity, especially for new variants of SARS-CoV-2. Considering this problem, it is promising to focus on developing a Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) mucosal vaccine. Such a preparation applied directly to the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract might provide an immune barrier at the primary point of virus entry into the human body while inducing systemic immunity. A number of such preparations against SARS-CoV-2 are already in various phases of preclinical and clinical trials, and several of them are very close to being accepted for general use, constituting a milestone toward pandemic containment.

Abstract
Landmark successes in oncoimmunology have led to development of therapeutics boosting the host immune system to eradicate local and distant tumors with impactful tumor reduction in a subset of patients. However, current immunotherapy modalities often demonstrate limited success when involving immunologically cold tumors and solid tumors. Here, we describe the role of various biomaterials to formulate cancer vaccines as a form of cancer immunotherapy, seeking to utilize the host immune system to activate and expand tumor-specific T cells. Biomaterial-based cancer vaccines enhance the cancer-immunity cycle by harnessing cellular recruitment and activation against tumor-specific antigens. In this review, we discuss biomaterial-based vaccine strategies to induce lymphocytic responses necessary to mediate anti-tumor immunity. We focus on strategies that selectively attract dendritic cells via immunostimulatory gradients, activate them against presented tumor-specific antigens, and induce effective cross-presentation to T cells in secondary lymphoid organs, thereby generating immunity. We posit that personalized cancer vaccines are promising targets to generate long-term systemic immunity against patient- and tumor-specific antigens to ensure long-term cancer remission.

The controlled release of HA from the core could exert anti-adhesion effects to promote tendon sliding while reducing fibroblast attachment. From the microfibrous structural nature of CSNFMs, they function as barrier membranes to reduce fibroblast penetration without hampering nutrient transports to prevent post-operative peritendinous adhesion. As the anti-adhesion efficacy will depend on release rate of HA from the core as well as Ag NP from the sheath, we fabricated CSNFMs of comparable fiber diameter, but with thick (Tk) or thin (Tn) sheath. Similar CSNFMs with thick (Tk+) and thin (Tn+) sheath but with embedded Ag NPs in the sheath were also prepared. The physico-chemical properties of the barrier membranes were characterized in details, together with their biological response including cell penetration, cell attachment and proliferation, and cytotoxicity. Peritendinous anti-adhesion models in rabbits were used to test the efficacy of CSNFMs as anti-adhesion barriers, from gross observation, histology, and biomechanical tests. Overall, the CSNFM with thin-sheath and Ag NPs (Tn+) shows antibacterial activity with low cytotoxicity, prevents fibroblast penetration, and exerts the highest efficacy in reducing fibroblast attachment in vitro. From in vivo studies, the Tn+ membrane also shows significant improvement in preventing peritendinous adhesions as well as anti-inflammatory efficacy, compared with Tk and Tn CSNFMs and a commercial adhesion barrier film (SurgiWrap®) made from PLA.

Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus is a group of diseases characterized by high blood glucose levels due to patients' inability to produce sufficient insulin. Current interventions often require implants that can detect and correct high blood glucose levels with minimal patient intervention. However, these implantable technologies have not reached their full potential in vivo due to the foreign body response and subsequent development of fibrosis. Therefore, for long-term function of implants, modulating the initial immune response is crucial in preventing the activation and progression of the immune cascade. This review discusses the different molecular mechanisms and cellular interactions involved in the activation and progression of foreign body response (FBR) and fibrosis, specifically for implants used in diabetes. We also highlight the various strategies and techniques that have been used for immunomodulation and prevention of fibrosis. We investigate how these general strategies have been applied to implants used for the treatment of diabetes, offering insights on how these devices can be further modified to circumvent FBR and fibrosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Considerable efforts have been made to treat and prevent acute and chronic infections caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Current treatments are unable to protect people from reinfection. Hence, there is a need for development of both preventive and therapeutic HCV vaccines. Many vaccine candidates are in development to fight against HCV, but their efficacy has so far proven limited partly due to low immunogenicity. AREAS COVERED We explore development of novel and powerful adjuvants to achieve an effective HCV vaccine. The basis for developing strong adjuvants is to understand the innate immunity pathway, which subsequently stimulates humoral and cellular immune responses. We have also investigated immunogenicity of developed adjuvants that have been used in recent studies available in online databases such as PubMed, PMC, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, etc. EXPERT OPINION Adjuvants are used as a part of vaccine formulation to boost vaccine immunogenicity and antigen delivery. Several FDA-approved adjuvants are used in licensed human vaccines. Unfortunately, no adjuvant has yet been proven to boost HCV immune responses to the extent needed for an effective vaccine. One of the promising approaches for developing an effective adjuvant is the combination of various adjuvants to trigger several innate immune responses, leading to activation of adaptive immunity.[Figure: see text].

Abstract
Introduction: Periodontitis is a widespread illness that arises due to disrupted interplay between the oral microbiota and the host immune response. In some cases, conventional therapies can provide temporary remission, although this is often followed by disease relapse. Recent studies of periodontitis pathology have promoted the development of new therapeutics to improve treatment options, together with local application using advanced drug delivery systems.Areas covered: This paper provides a critical review of the status of current treatment approaches to periodontitis, with a focus on promising immunomodulation and probiotic therapies. These are based on delivery of small molecules, peptides, proteins, DNA or RNA, and probiotics. The key findings on novel treatment strategies and formulation of advanced delivery systems, such as nanoparticles and nanofibers, are highlighted.Expert opinion: Multitarget therapy based on antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and probiotic active ingredients incorporated into advanced delivery systems for application to the periodontal pocket can improve periodontitis treatment outcomes. Translation of such adjuvant therapy from laboratory to patient is expected in the future.

Abstract
Therapeutic leukaemia vaccines have shown modest potency. Here, we show that the co-encapsulation of a leukaemia-associated epitope peptide highly expressed in leukaemia patients and of the immune checkpoint inhibitor anti-programmed-cell-death-protein-1 (anti-PD-1) in degradable poly(lactic acid) microcapsules resulted in the sustained release of the peptide and of the antibody, which led to the recruitment of activated antigen-presenting cells to the injection site, their uptake of the peptide and the transportation of the anti-PD-1 antibody to lymph nodes, enhancing the expansion of epitope-specific T cells and the activation of cytotoxic T cells. After single subcutaneous injections of vaccine formulations with different epitope peptides, mice bearing leukaemia xenografts derived from humanized cell lines or from primary cells from patients showed better therapeutic outcomes than mice receiving repeated injections of free antigen, antibody and a commercial adjuvant. The sustained release of a tumour-associated peptide and of anti-PD-1 may represent a generalizable strategy for boosting antitumour immune responses to leukaemia.

Abstract
Nanomaterials (NMs) have revolutionized multiple aspects of medicine by enabling novel sensing, diagnostic, and therapeutic approaches. Advancements in processing and fabrication have also allowed significant expansion in the applications of the major classes of NMs based on polymer, metal/metal oxide, carbon, liposome, or multi-scale macro-nano bulk materials. Concomitantly, concerns regarding the nanotoxicity and overall biocompatibility of NMs have been raised. These involve putative negative effects on both patients and those subjected to occupational exposure during manufacturing. In this review, we describe the current state of testing of NMs including those that are in clinical use, in clinical trials, or under development. We also discuss the cellular and molecular interactions that dictate their toxicity and biocompatibility. Specifically, we focus on the reciprocal interactions between NMs and host proteins, lipids, and sugars and how these induce responses in immune and other cell types leading to topical and/or systemic effects.

Abstract
Vaccines have advanced human health for centuries. To improve upon the efficacy of subunit vaccines they have been formulated into nano/microparticles for infectious diseases. Much progress in the field of polymeric particles for vaccine formulation has been made since the push for a tetanus vaccine in the 1990s. Modulation of particle properties such as size, surface charge, degradation rate, and the co-delivery of antigen and adjuvant has been used. This review focuses on advances in the understanding of how these properties influence immune responses to injectable polymeric particle vaccines. Consideration is also given to how endotoxin, route of administration, and other factors influence conclusions that can be made. Current manufacturing techniques involved in preserving vaccine efficacy and scale-up are discussed, as well as those for progressing polymeric particle vaccines toward commercialization. Consideration of all these factors should aid the continued development of efficacious and marketable polymeric particle vaccines.

Abstract
As vaccine formulations have progressed from including live or attenuated strains of pathogenic components for enhanced safety, developing new adjuvants to more effectively generate adaptive immune responses has become necessary. In this context, polymeric nanoparticles have emerged as a promising platform with multiple advantages, including the dual capability of adjuvant and delivery vehicle, administration via multiple routes, induction of rapid and long-lived immunity, greater shelf-life at elevated temperatures, and enhanced patient compliance. This comprehensive review describes advances in nanoparticle-based vaccines (i.e., nanovaccines) with a particular focus on polymeric particles as adjuvants and delivery vehicles. Examples of the nanovaccine approach in respiratory infections, biodefense, and cancer are discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Poly lactic acid (PLA) combined with cisplatin-chloroquine nanoparticles (CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs) and PLA combined with cisplatin nanoparticles (CDDP-PLA NPs) were prepared to investigate their inhibitory effects on the proliferation of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) Cal-27cell line. PATIENTS AND METHODS We prepared CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs and CDDP-PLA NPs. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were used to detect the physiological characteristics and particle size parameters of drug-loaded nanoparticles. The drug concentration and cumulative release were measured by UV and visible spectrophotometer. MTT assay was used to detect viability of Cal-27 cells. Annexin/PI staining was used to detect cell apoptosis. Biological kits were used to detect malondialdehyde (MDA) content, catalase (CAT) activity, antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and glutathione peroxidase (GSH PX) activity in Cal-27 cells. Western blot was used to detect apoptosis and autophagy of Cal-27 cells. RESULTS CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs and CDDP -PLA NPs had good drug loaded nanoparticles and drug release. CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs showed higher ROS and apoptosis rate, and lower autophagy than CDDP-PLA NPs. CONCLUSION CDDP/CQ-PLA NPs reduced autophagy and enhanced ROS and apoptosis of Cal-27 cells, which shows a potential in the clinical treatment of OSCC.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, with the development of science and technology, the field of biomedicine has rapidly developed, especially with respect to biomedical materials. Low toxicity and good biocompatibility have always been key targets in the development and application of biomedical materials. As a degradable and environmentally friendly polymer, polylactic acid, also known as polylactide, is favored by researchers and has been used as a commercial material in various studies. Lactic acid, as a synthetic raw material of polylactic acid, can only be obtained by sugar fermentation. Good biocompatibility and biodegradability have led it to be approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a biomedical material. Polylactic acid has good physical properties, and its modification can optimize its properties to a certain extent. Polylactic acid blocks and blends play significant roles in drug delivery, implants, and tissue engineering to great effect. This article describes the synthesis of polylactic acid (PLA) and its raw materials, physical properties, degradation, modification, and applications in the field of biomedicine. It aims to contribute to the important knowledge and development of PLA in biomedical applications.

Abstract
In this study, dissolving microneedles (DMNs) with dual-release pattern, capable of both bolus release and slow release, were prepared. These DMNs were used with a hepatitis B vaccine that requires multiple shots to achieve immunological efficacy comparable to that obtained when two separate shots are administered. Dissolving microneedles with HBsAg in PLA tips and CMC coating formulation together (HBsAg-PLA/CMC-DMNs) consist of polylactic acid (PLA) tips for slow release, a carboxy-methyl cellulose (CMC) coating formulation for bolus release, and a dissolving base of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) for dissolution in the skin. The in vitro release pattern of HBsAg from the CMC coating formulation and PLA tips was observed. Through an in vivo test, 1) the delivery efficiency of HBsAg-PLA/CMC-DMNs was observed, and 2) the immunological efficacy of this method was compared with the efficacy of two shots delivered by conventional intramuscular (IM) administration and two shots delivered by HBsAg-coated microneedle (CMNs) administration. HBsAg-PLA/CMC-DMNs punctured the skin successfully. The PVA/PVP base was completely dissolved within 10 min of insertion, resulting in the delivery of all microneedle tips into the skin. In the in vitro release experiment, all of the HBsAg in the CMC coating formulation was released within 20 min, and the HBsAg present in the PLA tips was gradually released over more than 55 days. The antibody titer of one shot of HBsAg-PLA/CMC-DMNs was the same as or higher than two shots delivered by conventional IM and CMN methods. DMNs with dual-release pattern can deliver two formulations simultaneously with a single shot, resulting in improved immunological efficacy of HBsAg that requires multiple doses. In addition, this dual-release MN system can be used for the delivery of other drugs that require multiple administrations.

Abstract
Polymeric nanocarriers (PNs) have demonstrated to be a promising alternative to treat intracellular infections. They have outstanding performance in delivering antimicrobials intracellularly to reach an adequate dose level and improve their therapeutic efficacy. PNs offer opportunities for preventing unwanted drug interactions and degradation before reaching the target cell of tissue and thus decreasing the development of resistance in microorganisms. The use of PNs has the potential to reduce the dose and adverse side effects, providing better efficiency and effectiveness of therapeutic regimens, especially in drugs having high toxicity, low solubility in the physiological environment and low bioavailability. This review provides an overview of nanoparticles made of different polymeric precursors and the main methodologies to nanofabricate platforms of tuned physicochemical and morphological properties and surface chemistry for controlled release of antimicrobials in the target. It highlights the versatility of these nanosystems and their challenges and opportunities to deliver antimicrobial drugs to treat intracellular infections and mentions nanotoxicology aspects and future outlooks.

Abstract
Nanocarriers have been increasingly proposed for lung drug delivery applications. The strategy of combining the intrinsic and more general advantages of the nanostructures with specificities that improve the therapeutic outcomes of particular clinical situations is frequent. These include the surface engineering of the carriers by means of altering the material structure (i.e., chemical modifications), the addition of specific ligands so that predefined targets are reached, or even the tuning of the carrier properties to respond to specific stimuli. The devised strategies are mainly directed at three distinct areas of lung drug delivery, encompassing the delivery of proteins and protein-based materials, either for local or systemic application, the delivery of antibiotics, and the delivery of anticancer drugs-the latter two comprising local delivery approaches. This review addresses the applications of nanocarriers aimed at lung drug delivery of active biological and pharmaceutical ingredients, focusing with particular interest on nanocarriers that exhibit multifunctional properties. A final section addresses the expectations regarding the future use of nanocarriers in the area.
