Abstract
Remarkable resistance of bacterial biofilms to high doses of antimicrobials and antibiotics is one of their main challenges. Encapsulation of proteolytic enzymes is one of the suggested strategies to tackle this problem. In this regard, the antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity of biocompatible hyaluronic acid- Lysine nanogels containing serratiopeptidase (SRP-loaded HA-Lys nanogel) was assessed against P. aeruginosa and S. aureus strains. SRP-loaded HA-Lys nanogel was prepared using dropping method and optimized by Box-Behnken experimental design. These formulations were studied for physical characterization, release profile, stability, bioactivity, and anti-biofilm effects. The particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), and surface charge were measured by Zetasizer Nano ZS. The average particle size and zeta potential of the optimum sample were 156 nm and -14.1 mV, respectively. SRP release showed an initial burst followed by sustained release and the highest release was around 77%. Enzyme biological activity data revealed the higher efficiency of free SRP compared to SRP-loaded HA-Lys nanogel. The time-kill assay showed that both forms of SRP-loaded HA-Lys nanogel and blank HA-Lys nanogel showed significant antimicrobial activity against examined bacteria in comparison to the free enzyme. The obtained results demonstrated improved anti-biofilm efficacy and down regulation of tested biofilm genes for both SRP-loaded HA-Lys nanogel 100% and blank HA-Lys nanogel 100% compared to SRP 100%.

Abstract
A novel wound dressing that possesses antibacterial properties and accelerates skin wound repair was developed by physically blending hyaluronic acid-grafted pullulan succinate (HA-st-Pu) with chitosan (CS). The HA-st-Pu polymer was synthesized and characterized, and then CS/HA-st-Pu film dressings were prepared by a freeze-drying method. The novel film wound dressings exhibited a three-dimensional cavity structure under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and a better swelling ratio than CS, HA and Pu alone, absorbing a large amount of liquid and effectively maintaining the moist environment of the wound. CS/HA-st-Pu materials had no cytotoxicity and increased cell proliferation when coincubated with L929 cells. Moreover, CS/HA-st-Pu wound dressings exhibited a certain antibacterial capability against E. coli and S. aureus. In rat skin wound healing, CS/HA-st-Pu film dressings outperformed both the control and market band-aid groups with respect to the reduction of inflammation and acceleration of wound closure.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring polysaccharide which has been extensively exploited in biomedical fields owing to its outstanding biocompatibility. Self-assembly of HA and polycations through electrostatic interactions can generate colloidal polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs), which can offer a wide range of applications while being relatively simple to prepare with rapid and "green" processes. The advantages of colloidal HA-based PECs stem from the combined benefits of nanomedicine, green chemistry, and the inherent properties of HA, namely high biocompatibility, biodegradability, and biological targeting capability. Accordingly, colloidal PECs from HA have received increasing attention in the recent years as high-performance materials for biomedical applications. Considering their potential, this review is aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of colloidal PECs from HA in complex with polycations, from the most fundamental aspects of the preparation process to their various biomedical applications, notably as nanocarriers for delivering small molecule drugs, nucleic acids, peptides, proteins, and bioimaging agents or the construction of multifunctional platforms.

Abstract
Microfluidics is emerging as a promising tool to control physicochemical properties of nanoparticles and to accelerate clinical translation. Indeed, microfluidic-based techniques offer more advantages in nanomedicine over batch processes, allowing fine-tuning of process parameters. In particular, the use of microfluidics to produce nanoparticles has paved the way for the development of nano-scaled structures for improved detection and treatment of several diseases. Here, ionotropic gelation is implemented in a custom-designed microfluidic chip to produce different nanoarchitectures based on chitosan-hyaluronic acid polymers. The selected biomaterials provide biocompatibility, biodegradability and non-toxic properties to the formulation, making it promising for nanomedicine applications. Furthermore, results show that morphological structures can be tuned through microfluidics by controlling the flow rates. Aside from the nanostructures, the ability to encapsulate gadolinium contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging and a dye for optical imaging is demonstrated. In conclusion, the polymer nanoparticles here designed revealed the dual capability of enhancing the relaxometric properties of gadolinium by attaining Hydrodenticity and serving as a promising nanocarrier for multimodal imaging applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Improving the water solubility of hydrophobic drugs, increasing their accumulation in tumor tissue and allowing their simultaneous action by different pathways are essential issues for a successful chemotherapeutic activity in cancer treatment. Considering potential clinical application in the future, it will be promising to achieve such purposes by developing new biocompatible hybrid nanocarriers with multimodal therapeutic activity. RESULTS We designed and characterised a hybrid nanocarrier based on human serum albumin/chitosan nanoparticles (HSA/chitosan NPs) able to encapsulate free docetaxel (DTX) and doxorubicin-modified gold nanorods (DOXO-GNRs) to simultaneously exploit the complementary chemotherapeutic activities of both antineoplasic compounds together with the plasmonic optical properties of the embedded GNRs for plasmonic-based photothermal therapy (PPTT). DOXO was assembled onto GNR surfaces following a layer-by-layer (LbL) coating strategy, which allowed to partially control its release quasi-independently release regarding DTX under the use of near infrared (NIR)-light laser stimulation of GNRs. In vitro cytotoxicity experiments using triple negative breast MDA-MB-231 cancer cells showed that the developed dual drug encapsulation approach produces a strong synergistic toxic effect to tumoral cells compared to the administration of the combined free drugs; additionally, PPTT enhances the cytostatic efficacy allowing cell toxicities close to 90% after a single low irradiation dose and keeping apoptosis as the main cell death mechanism. CONCLUSIONS This work demonstrates that by means of a rational design, a single hybrid nanoconstruct can simultaneously supply complementary therapeutic strategies to treat tumors and, in particular, metastatic breast cancers with good results making use of its stimuli-responsiveness as well as its inherent physico-chemical properties.

Abstract
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is among the leading causes of blindness worldwide. Bevacizumab has demonstrated promising effects on CNV treatment; however, frequent intravitreal injection is its major drawback. Current study aimed to address this issue by developing a sustained release formulation through nanoparticles of bevacizumab imbedded in an ocular implant. Bevacizumab-loaded chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by ionic gelation method and inserted in the matrix of hyaluronic acid and zinc sulfate. Despite the common approaches in using ultraviolet (UV)-spectrophotometry, microprotein-Bradford, and bicinchoninic acid (BCA), assay for protein assessment, our results revealed a remarkable UV-Vis absorption overlap of protein and chitosan during these analysis and thus enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed for the antibody concentration assay. The size of optimized nanoparticles obtained through statistical analysis based on design of experiments was 78.5 ± 1.9 nm with polydispersity index of 0.13 ± 0.05 and the entrapment-efficiency and loading-efficiency were 67.6 ± 6.7 and 15.7 ± 5.7%, respectively. The scanning electron microscopy and confocal microscopy images revealed a homogenous distribution of nanoparticles in the implant matrix and the release test results indicated an appropriate extended release of bevacizumab from the carrier over two months. In conclusion, the prepared system provided a sustained release bevacizumab delivery formulation which can introduce a promising ocular drug delivery system intended for posterior segment disease. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Degenerative cartilage is the pathology of severe depletion of extracellular matrix components in articular cartilage. In diseases like osteoarthritis, misregulation of microRNAs contributes the pathology and collectively leads to disruption of the homeostasis. In this study chondroitin sulfate/hyaluronic acid/chitosan nanoparticles were prepared and successfully characterized chemically and morphologically. Results demonstrated higher chondroitin sulfate amounts led smaller nanoparticles, but lower surface zeta potential due to high electronegativity. After optimization of chondroitin sulfate amounts regarding size and charge, nanoparticles were loaded with microRNA-149-5p, a therapeutic miRNA downregulated in osteoarthritis, and evaluated focusing on their loading efficiency, release behaviour, cytotoxicity and gene transfection efficiency in vitro. Results showed all nanoparticle formulations were non-toxic and promising gene delivery agents, due to increased levels of microRNA-149-5p and decreased mRNA levels of microRNA's target, FUT-1. Highest gene transfection efficiency was obtained with the nanoparticle formulation which had the highest chondroitin sulfate load and smallest size. In addition, owing to their high chondroitin sulfate cargo, all nanoparticles were reported to enhance chondrogenesis, which was demonstrated by gene expression analysis and sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) staining. The obtained data suggest that the delivery of microRNA-149-5p via polysaccharide based carriers could achieve collaborative impact in cartilage regeneration and have a potential to enhance osteoarthritis treatment.

Abstract
In recent years, the rapid growth and availability of protein and peptide therapeutics has not only expanded the boundaries of modern science but has also revolutionized the practice of medicine today. The potential of such therapies, however, is greatly limited by the innate instabilities of proteins and peptides, which is further magnified during therapeutic formulation processing, transport, storage, and administration. In this paper, we will consider the unique stability challenges associated with protein/peptide polymeric delivery systems from an engineering approach oriented towards the quantification and modification of amino acid-based cargo stability. While a number of methods have been developed for the purposes of quantifying factors affecting protein and peptide stability, current measurement techniques remain largely limited in scope in regard to polymeric drug delivery systems. This paper will primarily describe the influence of water content, pH, and temperature on protein and peptide stability within polymer-based delivery systems. Moreover, we will review current instrumentation used to quantify factors affecting protein/peptide stability with respect to water content, pH, and temperature. Lastly, we will outline several recommendations to help guide future research efforts to develop methods more specific to quantifying protein/peptide stability within polymer-based delivery systems.

Abstract
The cocoa extract (Theobroma cacao L.) has a significant amount of polyphenols (TP) with potent antioxidant activity (AA). This study aims to optimise microencapsulation of the extract of cocoa waste using chitosan and maltodextrin. Microencapsulation tests were performed according to a Box-Behnken factorial design, and the results were evaluated by response surface methodology with temperature, maltodextrin concentration (MD) and extract flowrate (EF) as independent variables, and the fraction of encapsulated TP, TP encapsulation yield, AA, yield of drying and solubility index as responses. The optimum conditions were: inlet temperature of 170 °C, MD of 5% and EF of 2.5 mL/min. HPLC analysis identified epicatechin as the major component of both the extract and microparticles. TP release was faster at pH 3.5 than in water. These results as a whole suggest that microencapsulation was successful and the final product can be used as a nutrient source for aquatic animal feed. Highlights Microencapsulation is optimised according to a factorial design of the Box-Behnken type. Epicatechin is the major component of both the extract and microcapsules. The release of polyphenols from microcapsules is faster at pH 3.5 than in water.

Abstract
Multifunctional nanocarriers based on the Fe3O4 nanoparticles core and mesoporous silica shell (mSiO2) were synthesized for controlled drug release through magnetic targeting and pH-sensitive performances. The developed Fe3O4@mSiO2 nanocarriers exhibited a suitable size (63nm) and good magnetic responsibility, doxorubicin (DOX) could be successfully loaded into the mesoporous of Fe3O4@mSiO2 via electrostatic interaction, and the drug loading content and loading efficiency are 29.3% and 93.6%, respectively. The chitosan (CS) was employed to wrap the Fe3O4@mSiO2-DOX as the blocking agent to inhibit premature drug release, and the final CS/Fe3O4@mSiO2-DOX exhibited excellent pH-sensitivity, 86.1% DOX was released within 48h at pH4.0. Furthermore, all the release behaviors fit the Higuchi model very well and a purely diffusion-controlled process played a major role on DOX release from CS/Fe3O4@mSiO2-DOX. In addition, MTT assays in human liver hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2) demonstrated that the CS/Fe3O4@mSiO2-DOX had high anti-tumor activity, while the Fe3O4@mSiO2 nanocarriers were practically non-toxic. Thus, our results revealed that the CS/Fe3O4@mSiO2-DOX could play an important role in the development of intracellular delivery nanodevices for cancer therapy.
