Abstract
In this work, pectin was employed as a coating material to fabricate zein/whey protein isolate (WPI)/pectin complex nanoparticles via a pH-adjusted and heat-induced electrostatic adsorption process for potential oral administration applications of curcumin. Factors such as the order of raw material addition, heating temperature and pH, and zein concentration were comprehensively examined. In addition to electrostatic interactions, Fourier transform infrared and fluorescence spectroscopy indicated that hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds were also involved in the development of complex nanoparticles. The complex nanoparticles obtained not only improved the antioxidant activity of curcumin in aqueous phase, but also contributed to its controlled release under gastrointestinal conditions. Our findings revealed that the heating pH and adding sequence of raw materials had a notable impact on the properties of complex nanoparticles, and that pectin coating had an exceptional stabilizing effect on complex nanoparticles under gastrointestinal circumstances. This study provides novel insights and perspectives for the preparation of polysaccharide-protein complex nanoparticles, signifying the potential use of zein/WPI/pectin complex nanoparticles as delivery vehicles in the functional food and pharmaceutical industries.

Design of carboxymethylcellulose-conjugated polymeric prodrug micelles for enhanced in vivo performance of docetaxel. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:127690. [PMID: 37898254 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127690] [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: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/30/2023]
Abstract
Docetaxel (DTX) has become one of the most important cytotoxic drugs to treat cancer; nevertheless, its poor hydrophilicity and non-specific distribution of DTX lead to detrimental side effects. In this article, we devised carboxymethylcellulose (CMC)-conjugated polymeric prodrug micelles (mPEG-CMC-DTX PMs) for DTX delivery. The ester-bonded polymeric prodrug, mPEG-CMC-DTX, was synthesized and exhibited the capacity for self-assembling into polymeric micelles. The CMC is profusely substituted and acetylated to promote the coupling rate of DTX. Covalent binding of DTX and CMC through an ester bond can be hydrolyzed to dissociate the bond under the action of esterase in the tumor. The mPEG-CMC-DTX PMs displayed promoted drug loading (>50 %, wt), commendable stability, and sustained release behavior in vitro. The gradual release of the prodrug amplified the selectivity of cytotoxicity between normal cells and tumor cells, mitigating the systemic toxicity of mPEG-CMC-DTX PMs and enabling dose intensification. Notably, mPEG-CMC-DTX PMs demonstrated a superior antitumor efficacy and low systemic toxicity due to the elevated tolerance dosage (even at 40 mg/kg DTX). In summation, mPEG-CMC-DTX PMs harmonized the antitumor efficacy and toxicity of DTX. In essence, innovative perspectives for the rational design of CMC-conjugated polymeric prodrug micelles for the delivery of potently toxic drugs were proffered.

Abstract
The self-healing hydrogels have important applications in biomedication as drug release carrier. In this research, the Doxorubicin (DOX) was coupled onto oxidized carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) (CMC-Ald) to fabricate self-healing hydrogel with intrinsic antitumor property and loaded with Camptothecin (CPT) for synergetic antitumor treatment. The DOX coupled CMC-Ald (CMC-AD) was reacted with poly(aspartic hydrazide) (PAH) to fabricate injectable self-healing hydrogel. The coupled DOX avoided the burst release of the drug and the 100 % CPT loaded hydrogel could take the advantages of both drugs to enhance the synergetic antitumor therapeutic effect. The in vitro and in vivo results revealed the CPT loaded CMC-AD/PAH hydrogel showed enhanced antitumor property and reduced biotoxicity of the drugs. These properties demonstrate that the CMC-AD/PAH hydrogel has great application prospects in biomedication.

Double-Loaded Doxorubicin/Resveratrol Polymeric Micelles Providing Low Toxicity on Cardiac Cells and Enhanced Cytotoxicity on Lymphoma Cells. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15041287. [PMID: 37111772 PMCID: PMC10143567 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15041287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 04/13/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The anthracycline antibiotic doxorubicin is a well-known antitumour agent, however its cardiotoxicity is a significant obstacle to therapy. The aim of the present study was to improve the safety of doxorubicin through its simultaneous encapsulation with a cardioprotective agent (resveratrol) in Pluronic micelles. The formation and double-loading of the micelles was performed via the film hydration method. Infrared spectroscopy proved the successful incorporation of both drugs. X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that resveratrol was loaded in the core, whereas doxorubicin was included in the shell. The double-loaded micelles were characterised by a small diameter (26 nm) and narrow size distribution, which is beneficial for enhanced permeability and retention effects. The in vitro dissolution tests showed that the release of doxorubicin depended on the pH of the medium and was faster than that of resveratrol. In vitro studies on cardioblasts showed the opportunity to reduce the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin through the presence of resveratrol in double-loaded micelles. Higher cardioprotection was observed when the cells were treated with the double-loaded micelles compared with referent solutions with equal concentrations of both drugs. In parallel, treatments of L5178 lymphoma cells with the double-loaded micelles revealed that the cytotoxic effect of doxorubicin was enhanced. Thus, the study demonstrated that the simultaneous delivery of doxorubicin and resveratrol via the micellar system enabled the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in lymphoma cells and lowered its cardiotoxicity in cardiac cells.

Abstract
The high nutritional value and diverse functional properties of egg yolk proteins have led to its widespread use in the fields of food, medicine, and cosmetics. Various extraction methods have been reported to obtain the proteins from egg yolk, however, their utilization is limited due to the relatively low extraction efficiency and/or toxic solvents involved. Several simpler and greener technologies, especially physical fields (ultrasound), have been successfully developed to improve the extraction efficiency. The egg yolk proteins may exert multiple biological activities, enabling them to be a promising tool in improve human health and wellbeing, such as anti-obesity, anti-atherosclerosis, anti-osteoporosis, diagnosis and therapy for SARS-CoV-2 infections. This article summarizes the novel extraction technologies and latest applications of the egg yolk proteins in the recent 5 years, which should stimulate their utilization as health-promoting functional ingredients in foods and other commercial products.

Abstract
Environment-responsive-cum-site-specific delivery of therapeutic drugs into tumor cells is a foremost challenge for chemotherapy. In the present work, Moringa oleifera gum-based pH-responsive nanogel (MOGN) was functionalized as a doxorubicin (DOX) carrier. It was synthesized via free radical polymerization through the γ-irradiation method using acrylamide and N,N'-MBA followed by hydrolysis, sonication, and ultracentrifugation. The swelling behavior of MOGN as a function of pH was assessed using a gravimetric method that revealed its superabsorbent nature (365.0 g/g). Furthermore, MOGN showed a very high loading efficiency (98.35 %L) of DOX by MOGN. In vitro release studies revealed that DOX release from DOX-loaded MOGN was 91.92% at pH 5.5 and 12.18% at 7.4 pH, thus favorable to the tumor environment. The drug release from nanogel followed Korsmeyer-Peppas model at pH 5.5 and 6.8 and the Higuchi model at pH 7.4. Later, the efficient DOX release at the tumor site was also investigated by cytotoxicity study using Rhabdomyosarcoma cells. Thus, the synthesized nanogel having high drug loading capacity and excellent pH-triggered disintegration and DOX release performance in a simulated tumor environment could be a promising candidate drug delivery system for the targeted and controlled release of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Traditional bioactive substances are often limited in practical application due to their poor stability and low solubility. Therefore, it is imperative to develop biocompatible high loading microgel carriers. In this study, a novel type of casein-porous starch microgel was prepared under ultra-high-pressure homogenization, by using porous starch with the honeycomb three-dimensional network porous structure. Molecular interaction force analysis and thermodynamic analysis showed that electrostatic interaction played a major role in the formation of microgels. Circular dichroism and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that homogenization and pH were the main factors, which affected the formation and structural stability of microgels. Compared with casein-glutinous rice starch microgels, the encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity of phycocyanin in casein-porous starch microgels were increased by 77.27% and 135.10%, respectively. Thus, casein-porous starch microgels could not only achieve a sustained release effect, but also effectively transport phycocyanin to the gastrointestinal tract of zebrafish, while achieving good fluorescence imaging in vivo. Ultimately, the prepared casein-porous starch microgels could enrich the nanocarriers material, and contribute to the research of safe and effective fluorescent imaging materials.

Abstract
A cellulose-based microgel is firstly synthesized via chemically coupling gelatin and cellulose, and then amphiphilic cellulose copolymers (HMGC) are prepared by alkylated cellulose-based microgel from different long-chain alkyl groups. The long-chain alkyl group is mainly bonded onto the residual hydroxyl group at C6 from the AGU of cellulose and the imino groups of gelatin, respectively. The results of self-assembly behavior of HMGC demonstrate that the critical aggregation concentrations of the microgels are in the range from 0.628 to 0.075 mg/mL, and the corresponding hydrodynamic diameters are between 104-1000 nm. Besides, the HMGC can self-assemble into microgels of various morphologies including cotton flocculence, sphere, rod-like, vesicle, flower-like cluster, snowflake-like, urchin-like, and coral shapes. These novel morphologies can be controlled by adjusting the degree of alkylation, the length of the alkyl chain, and the concentration of microgel. Furthermore, the possible formation mechanism of the multiform microgels is proposed from the chain conformation.

Abstract
Pulmonary drug delivery is governed by several biophysical parameters of delivery carriers, such as particle size, shape, density, charge, and surface modifications. Although much attention has been given to other parameters, particle shape effects have rarely been explored. In this work, we assess the influence of particle shape of inhaled delivery carriers on their aerodynamic properties and macrophage uptake by using polymeric microparticles of different geometries ranging in various sizes. Doxorubicin was conjugated to the polymer particles and the bioconjugates were characterized. Interestingly, the results of in-vitro lung deposition, performed using a next generation impactor, demonstrated a significant improvement in the aerodynamic properties of the rod-shaped particles with a high aspect ratio as compared to spherical particles with the same equivalent volume. The results of a macrophage uptake experiment demonstrate that the high aspect ratio particles were phagocytosed less than spherical particles. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity of these doxorubicin-conjugated particles was determined against murine macrophages, resulting in reduced toxicity when treated with high aspect ratio particles as compared to spherical particles. This project provides valuable insights into the influence of particle shape on aerodynamic properties and primary defense mechanisms in the peripheral lungs, while using polymeric microparticles of various sizes and geometries. Further systematic development can help translate these findings to preclinical and clinical studies for designing efficient inhalable delivery carriers.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems (DDS) that can temporally control the rate and extent of release of therapeutically active molecules find applications in many clinical settings, ranging from infection control to cancer therapy. With an aim to design a locally implantable, controlled-release DDS, we demonstrated the feasibility of using cellulose nanocrystal (CNC)-reinforced poly (l-lactic acid) (PLA) composite beads. The performance of the platform was evaluated using doxorubicin (DOX) as a model drug for applications in triple-negative breast cancer. A facile, nonsolvent-induced phase separation (NIPS) method was adopted to form composite beads. We observed that CNC loading within these beads played a critical role in the mechanical stability, porosity, water uptake, diffusion, release, and pharmacological activity of the drug from the delivery system. When loaded with DOX, composite beads significantly controlled the release of the drug in a pH-dependent pattern. For example, PLA/CNC beads containing 37.5 wt % of CNCs showed a biphasic release of DOX, where 41 and 82% of the loaded drug were released at pH 7.4 and pH 5.5, respectively, over 7 days. Drug release followed Korsmeyer's kinetics, indicating that the release mechanism was mostly diffusion and swelling-controlled. We showed that DOX released from drug-loaded PLA/CNC composite beads locally suppressed the growth and proliferation of triple-negative breast cancer cells, MBA-MB-231, via the apoptotic pathway. The efficacy of the DDS was evaluated in human tissue explants. We envision that such systems will find applications for designing biobased platforms with programmed stability and drug delivery functions.

Abstract
Compared to normal tissue, solid tumors exhibit a lower pH value. Such pH gradient can be used to design pH-sensitive nanogels for selective drug delivery. The acid-sensitive elements in the nanogel cause it to swell/degrade rapidly, followed by rapid drug release.

Abstract
Hydrogels, three-dimensional (3D) polymer networks, present unique properties, like biocompatibility, biodegradability, tunable mechanical properties, sensitivity to various stimuli, the capacity to encapsulate different therapeutic agents, and the ability of controlled release of the drugs. All these characteristics make hydrogels important candidates for diverse biomedical applications, one of them being drug delivery. The recent achievements of hydrogels as safe transport systems, with desired therapeutic effects and with minimum side effects, brought outstanding improvements in this area. Moreover, results from the utilization of hydrogels as target therapy strategies obtained in clinical trials are very encouraging for future applications. In this regard, the review summarizes the general concepts related to the types of hydrogel delivery systems, their properties, the main release mechanisms, and the administration pathways at different levels (oral, dermal, ocular, nasal, gastrointestinal tract, vaginal, and cancer therapy). After a general presentation, the review is focused on recent advances in the design, preparation and applications of innovative cellulose-based hydrogels in controlled drug delivery.

Abstract
This article reports a novel thiolated β-cyclodextrin (HS-β-CD) modified nanoporous gold (NPG) wire for pH sensitive delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) in controlled manner. Nanoporous gold is a versatile material because of its three-dimensional nanoscale network of pores, facile surface functionalization, biocompatibility, and high capacity for the DOX payload. HS-β-CD can form supramolecular inclusion complexes with DOX affording the possibility of altering the controlled release behavior. DOX is one of the most potent anti-tumor drugs used in the treatment of different cancers. The binding of HS-β-CD and DOX was examined using UV-Vis spectroscopy. The prepared NPG structure exhibited excellent properties for controlled drug release outlining the potential of a pH sensitive drug implant for biomedical applications. This delivery system could improve local targeting of the drug as well as alter the rate of release of DOX near tumors.

Abstract
The design of smart and functional nanocarriers for drug delivery systems that use a variety of organic and inorganic materials has led to the development of nanomedicines with improved therapeutic efficiency and reduced side effects. In this study, a pH- and temperature-responsive, controlled-release system with a high capacity for drug loading was developed based on radially porous silica nanoparticles composed of functionalized ligands and polymer encapsulation. This drug delivery system uses radially oriented mesoporous silica nanoparticles as the drug carrier, and control of the surface chemistry of those nanocarriers allows high-capacity loading efficiency of target drugs and stimuli-responsive release kinetics governed by pH and temperature. The delivery of ibuprofen was chosen to test this system, and a maximum loading efficiency of ca. 270 wt% was established, which was 3 times greater than that in previous studies for silica nanoparticles such as SBA-15, MCA-41, and MCM-48. In addition, the pH- and temperature-responsive release of ibuprofen was achieved when the surface of the nanocarriers was treated by pH-responsive amine functionalization and a temperature-responsive surface coating of agarose gel. Finally, cytotoxicity testing using the fibroblast cells showed that the developed silica nanocarriers have no toxicity on the cells, which should allow these nanocarriers to be applied as a nanomedicine in drug delivery systems.

Abstract
As the most abundant biopolymer on the earth, cellulose has recently gained significant attention in the development of antibacterial biomaterials. Biodegradability, renewability, strong mechanical properties, tunable aspect ratio, and low density offer tremendous possibilities for the use of cellulose in various fields. Owing to the high number of reactive groups (i.e., hydroxyl groups) on the cellulose surface, it can be readily functionalized with various functional groups, such as aldehydes, carboxylic acids, and amines, leading to diverse properties. In addition, the ease of surface modification of cellulose expands the range of compounds which can be grafted onto its structure, such as proteins, polymers, metal nanoparticles, and antibiotics. There are many studies in which cellulose nano-/microfibrils and nanocrystals are used as a support for antibacterial agents. However, little is known about the relationship between cellulose chemical surface modification and its antibacterial activity or biocompatibility. In this study, we have summarized various techniques for surface modifications of cellulose nanostructures and its derivatives along with their antibacterial and biocompatibility behavior to develop non-leaching and durable antibacterial materials. Despite the high effectiveness of surface-modified cellulosic antibacterial materials, more studies on their mechanism of action, the relationship between their properties and their effectivity, and more in vivo studies are required.

Abstract
Introduction: The development of more efficacious vaccines, especially subunit vaccines administered via non-invasive routes, is a priority in vaccinology. Nanogels are materials that can meet the requirements to serve as efficient vaccine delivery vehicles (in terms of thermo-sensitivity, biocompatibility, and pH-responsiveness; among others); thus there is a growing interest in exploring the potential of nanogels for vaccine development. Areas covered: Herein, a critical analysis of nanogel synthesis methodologies is presented and nanogel-based vaccines under development are summarized and placed in perspective. Promising vaccine candidates based on nanogels have been reported for cancer, obesity, and infectious diseases (mainly respiratory diseases). Some of the candidates were administered by mucosal routes which are highly attractive in terms of simple administration and induction of protective responses at both mucosal and systemic levels. Expert opinion: The most advanced models of nanogel-based vaccines comprise candidates against cancer, based on cholesteryl pullulan nanogels evaluated in clinical trials with promising findings; as well as some vaccines against respiratory pathogens tested in mice thus far. Nonetheless, the challenge for this field is advancing in clinical trials and proving the protective potential in test animals for many other candidates. Implementing green synthesis approaches for nanogels is also required.

Abstract
In this study, zein nanoparticles (NPs) with novel multifunctional coatings based on oxidative coupling assembly of polyphenols were synthesized for the first time. This coating was formed by oxidative self-polymerization of the organic ligands (polyphenols) in an alkaline condition, which could be biodegraded by acidic pH, as a result, impacting the pH-responsive property of the system. More importantly, the high level of intracellular glutathione (GSH) could induce the biodegradation of the polyphenol coatings, resulting in a fast release of trapped anticancer drugs in the cells. Based on confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and cytotoxicity experiments, drug-loaded and polyphenol-coated zein NPs were shown to possess highly efficient internalization and an apparent cytotoxic effect on HeLa cells. Notably, the CLSM observation illustrated that coated zein NPs showed delayed drug release compared with free drug or DOX-loaded zein NPs without coatings, resulting from the pH-responsive release of loaded drug in the extra/intracellular environment. Additionally, the short-time cytotoxicity and morphology observation also confirmed the delayed drug release behavior of coated NPs. These highly biocompatible and biodegradable polyphenol-coated zein NPs may be promising vectors in the field of controlled-release biomedical applications and cancer therapy.

Abstract
Hydrogel-based drug delivery systems (DDSs) have versatile applications such, as tissue engineering, scaffolds, drug delivery, and regenerative medicines. The drawback of higher size and poor stability in such DDSs are being addressed by developing nano-sized hydrogel particles, known as nanogels, to achieve the desired biocompatibility and encapsulation efficiency for better efficacy than conventional bulk hydrogels. In this review, we describe advances in the development of nanogels and their promotion as nanocarriers to deliver therapeutic agents to the central nervous system (CNS). We also discuss the challenges, possible solutions, and future prospects for the use of nanogel-based DDSs for CNS therapies.

Abstract
A series of injectable in situ cross-linking hyaluronic acid/carboxymethyl cellulose based hydrogels (HA/CMC) was prepared via disulfide bonds by the oxidation of dissolved oxygen. The results showed that HA/CMC hydrogels exhibited tunable gelling time, appropriate rheology properties, high swelling ratio, good stability, and sustained drug release ability. The gelling time of HA/CMC hydrogels ranged from 1.4 to 7.0 min, and the values of the storage modulus, complex shear modulus, dynamic viscosity, and yield stress of HA3/CMC3 hydrogel were about 5869 Pa, 5870 Pa, 587 Pa·s, and 1969 Pa, respectively. The degradation percentage of HA1/CMC1, HA2/CMC2, and HA3/CMC3 hydrogels were about 60, 49, and 41% after incubating 42 days, and the in vitro cumulative release percentage of BSA from HA1/CMC1, HA2/CMC2, and HA3/CMC3 drug-loaded hydrogels were about 99, 91, and 82% after 30 days. The series of injectable in situ cross-linking HA/CMC hydrogels exhibited good comprehensive performance, signifying that these hydrogels could be potentially used in the fields of short- and medium-term controlled drug release, cell encapsulation, regenerative medicine, and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) from hen egg yolk has high nutritional value and plays an important role in the fields of biology, medicine, and materials. To develop fundamental research about LDL, a highly efficient extraction method is necessary. We found that 30% saturated ammonium sulfate can extract more crude LDL than 40% saturation. We selected polyethylene glycol (PEG; nonionic type) to obtain crude LDL. Three factors were employed, namely, degree of polymerization, concentration of PEG, and pH of egg yolk plasma. The optimized condition was 5% PEG 4,000 and plasma pH 6.0, and the best extraction efficiency was 68.1 ± 0.5 g lipid /100 g DM and 69.9 ± 2.0% protein. The crude LDL oil of PEG precipitation was very significantly higher (P < 0.01) than ammonium sulfate precipitation (ASP), while there was no significant difference in protein, which indicates that PEG can extract more crude LDL. When ascorbic acid was added, hydrosulfuryl (SH) groups and lipids oxidation degree of crude LDL extracted by PEG (PEG-LDL) was very significantly lower than ASP (P < 0.01). We also obtained both purified LDL and yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) with an appropriate purification column. This paper proposes a highly efficient method to extract LDL with high activity using PEG and ensures co-purification of LDL and IgY.

Abstract
We report on new types of chitosan-based nanogels via an ortho ester-based linkage, used as drug carriers for efficient chemotherapy. First, we synthesized a novel diacrylamide containing ortho ester (OEAM) as an acid-labile cross-linker. Subsequently, methacrylated succinyl-chitosan (MASCS) was prepared and polymerized with OEAM at different molar ratios to give a series of pH-triggered MASCS nanogels. Doxorubicin (DOX) as a model anticancer drug was loaded into MASCS nanogels with a loading content of 16.5%. As expected, with the incorporation of ortho ester linkages, these nanogels showed pH-triggered degradation and drug release at acidic pH values. In vitro cellular uptake shows that the DOX-loaded nanogels could be preferentially internalized by two-dimensional (2D) cells and three-dimensional (3D) multicellular spheroids (MCs), resulting in higher inhibition of the proliferation of tumor cells. In vivo biodistribution and anti-tumor effect were determined in H22 tumor-bearing mice, and the results demonstrate that the acid-labile MASCS nanogels can significantly prolong the blood circulation time of DOX and improve the accumulation in tumor areas, leading to higher therapeutic efficacy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE We designed new pH-triggered chitosan nanogels via an ortho ester-based cross-linker for efficient drug-loading and chemotherapy. These drug-loaded nanogels exhibit excellent pH-triggered drug release behavior due to the degradation of ortho ester linkages in mildly acidic environments. In vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that the nanogels could be efficiently internalized by 2D cells and 3D-MCs, improve drug concentration in solid tumors, and lead to higher therapeutic efficacy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on using an ortho ester-based cross-linker to prepare pH-triggered chitosan nanogels as tumor carriers, which may provide a potential route for improved safety and to increase the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer therapy.

Abstract
In this study, well-defined folate (FA)-functionalized low density lipoproteins (LDL)/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) nanoparticles (NP) were first formulated, utilized in tumor targeting and pH-triggered drug release. CMC was modified with FA before the preparation of NP. A model anti-tumor drug, doxorubicin (DOX), was effectively loaded into the LDL/CMC-FA NP by ionic bonding and hydrophobic interactions. To enhance non-covalent encapsulation stability, self-assembly of DOX-loaded LDL/CMC-FA NP (NP-DOX) was cross-linked by multivalent cations such as Ca2+ (Ca2+-NP-DOX). The active targeting efficiency of NP-DOX and Ca2+-NP-DOX was tested against KB cells (FA-receptor over-expressing cells, FR+) and A549 cells (FA-receptor negative-expressing cells, FR-), using FA non-modified DOX-loaded LDL/CMC NP (NG-DOX) as control. The competition assay proved that free FA molecules prevented the cellular uptake of the NP by competitive binding to the FA receptors on the surface of KB cells. This new pH-responsive and FA-targeted nanocarrier may be a promising efficient drug delivery system for potential cancer therapy.

Abstract
The present article demonstrates the targeted delivery of doxorubicin hydrochloride to human osteosarcoma cancer cell lines (MG 63) using functionalized dextrin based crosslinked, pH responsive and biocompatible nanogel. The nanogel has been prepared through Michael-type addition reaction using dextrin (Dxt), N, N'-methylene bisacrylamide (MBA, as crosslinker), acrylic acid (AA, as monomer) and potassium persulfate (KPS, as initiator). The structure, composition, morphology of the nanogel have been explored using FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy, XRD, TGA, DSC, CHN and AFM analyses. The TEM analysis confirmed that the size of nanogel appeared within 100nm, while DLS study indicates that the diameter of the nanogel remained between 113 and 126nm. The AFM study implied the porous morphology of the synthesized nanogel. The rheological study suggests the gel behaviour of the synthesized nanogel at 37±0.1°C. Difference in% swelling at pH 5.5 and 7.4 indicates pH-responsiveness of the nanogel. The in vitro cytocompatibility results ascertained that the nanogel is non-toxic to human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). In vitro cellular uptake study confirmed that FITC-loaded nanogel can cross the cellular membrane and be well uptake by the cell cytoplasm. The nanogel could efficiently encapsulate doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox) with the loading efficiency of 27±0.2% after 72h. The Dox-loaded nanogel demonstrates anti-cancer activity towards MG 63 cancer cells and release the encapsulated drug in a controlled way.

Abstract
In this study, a novel coordination bonding system based on metal-tannic acid (TA) architecture on zein/carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) nanoparticles (NPs) was investigated for the pH-responsive drug delivery. CMCS has been reported to coat on zein NPs as delivery vehicles for drugs or nutrients in previous studies. The cleavage of either the "metal-TA" or "NH2-metal" coordination bonds resulted in significant release of guest molecules with high stimulus sensitivity, especially in mild acidic conditions. The prepared metal-TA-coated zein/CMCS NPs (zein/CMCS-TA/metal NPs) could maintain particle size in cell culture medium at 37°C, demonstrating good stability compared with zein/CMCS NPs. In vitro release behavior of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX)-loaded metal-TA film-coated zein/CMCS NPs (DOX-zein/CMCS-TA/metal NPs) showed fine pH responsiveness tailored by the ratio of zein to CMCS as well as the metal species and feeding concentrations. The blank zein/CMCS-TA/metal NPs (NPs-TA/metal) were of low cytotoxicity, while a high cytotoxic activity of DOX-zein/CMCS-TA/metal NPs (DOX-NPs-TA/metal) against HepG2 cells was demonstrated by in vitro cell assay. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and flow cytometry were combined to study the uptake efficiency of DOX-NPs or DOX-NPs-TA/metal. This system showed significant potential as a highly versatile and potent platform for drug delivery.

Abstract
Nanotechnology manipulates therapeutic agents at the nanoscale for the development of nanomedicines. However, there are current concerns over nanomedicines, mainly related to the possible toxicity of nanomaterials used for health medications. Due to their small size, they can enter the human body more readily than larger sized particles. Green chemistry encompasses the green synthesis of drug-loaded nanoparticles by reducing the use of hazardous materials in the synthesis process, thus reducing the adverse health impacts of pharmaceutics. This would greatly expand their potential in biomedical treatments. This review highlights the potential risks of nanomedicine formulations to health, delivery routes of green nanomedicines, recent advances in the development of green nanoscale systems for biomedical applications and future perspectives for the green development of nanomedicines.
