Abstract
OBJECTIVE Oral administration of insulin is a potential candidate for managing diabetes. However, it is obstructed by the gastrointestinal tract barriers resulting in negligible oral bioavailability. METHODS This investigation presents a novel nanocarrier platform designed to address these challenges. In this regard, the process involved amination of sodium alginate by ethylene diamine, followed by its conjugation with deoxycholic acid. RESULTS The resulting DCA@Alg@INS nanocarrier revealed a significantly high insulin loading content of 63.6 ± 1.03% and encapsulation efficiency of 87.6 ± 3.84%, with a particle size of 206 nm and zeta potentials of -3 mV. In vitro studies showed sustained and pH-dependent release profiles of insulin from nanoparticles. In vitro cellular studies, confocal laser scanning microscopy and flow cytometry analysis confirmed the successful attachment and internalization of DCA@Alg@INS nanoparticles in Caco-2 cells. Furthermore, the DCA@Alg@INS demonstrated a superior capacity for cellular uptake and permeability coefficient relative to the insulin solution, exhibiting sixfold and 4.94-fold enhancement, respectively. According to the uptake mechanism studies, the results indicated that DCA@Alg@INS was mostly transported through an energy-dependent active pathway since the uptake of DCA@Alg@INS by cells was significantly reduced in the presence of NaN3 by ~ 92% and at a low temperature of 4°C by ~ 94%. CONCLUSIONS Given the significance of administering insulin through oral route, deoxycholic acid-modified alginate nanoparticles present a viable option to surmount various obstacles presented by the gastrointestinal.

Abstract
Peptide drugs through nasal mucous membrane, such as insulin and calcitonin have been widely used in the medical field. There are always two sides to a coin. One side, intranasal drug delivery can imitate the secretion pattern in human body, having advantages of physiological structure and convenient use. Another side, the low permeability of nasal mucosa, protease environment and clearance effect of nasal cilia hinder the intranasal absorption of peptide drugs. Researchers have taken multiple means to achieve faster therapeutic concentration, lower management dose, and fewer side effects for better nasal preparations. To improve the peptide drugs absorption, various strategies had been explored via the nasal mucosa route. In this paper, we reviewed the achievements of 18 peptide drugs in the past decade about the perspectives of the efficacy, mechanism of enhancing intranasal absorption and safety. The most studies were insulin and calcitonin. As a result, absorption enhancers, nanoparticles (NPs) and bio-adhesive system are the most widely used. Among them, chitosan (CS), cell penetrating peptides (CPPs), tight junction modulators (TJMs), soft NPs and gel/hydrogel are the most promising strategies. Moreover, two or three strategies can be combined to prepare drug vectors. In addition, spray freeze dried (SFD), self-emulsifying nano-system (SEN), and intelligent glucose reaction drug delivery system are new research directions in the future.

Abstract
The design of carriers for insulin delivery has recently attracted major research attentions in the biomedical field. In general, the release of drug from polymers is driven via a variety of polymers. Several mechanisms such as matrix release, leaching of drug, swelling, and diffusion are usually adopted for the release of drug through polymers. Insulin is one of the most predominant therapeutic drugs for the treatment of both diabetes mellitus; type-I (insulin-dependent) and type II (insulin-independent). Currently, insulin is administered subcutaneously, which makes the patient feel discomfort, pain, hyperinsulinemia, allergic responses, lipodystrophy surrounding the injection area, and occurrence of miscarried glycemic control. Therefore, significant research interest has been focused on designing and developing new insulin delivery technologies to control blood glucose levels and time, which can enhance the patient compliance simultaneously through alternative routes as non-invasive insulin delivery. The aim of this review is to emphasize various non-invasive insulin delivery mechanisms including oral, transdermal, rectal, vaginal, ocular, and nasal. In addition, this review highlights different smart stimuli-responsive insulin delivery systems including glucose, pH, enzymes, near-infrared, ultrasound, magnetic and electric fields, and the application of various polymers as insulin carriers. Finally, the advantages, limitations, and the effect of each non-invasive route on insulin delivery are discussed in detail.

Abstract
The concepts of mucoadhesion and mucoadhesive polymers were introduced in the 20th century, leading to several advantages. These included enhanced drug absorption and extended residence at specific site of action. Polymeric excipients underwent chemical modification with sulfhydryl groups on the polymeric backbone so as to improve mucoadhesive features as well as potential. This modification resulted in compounds mimicking the nature of secreted mucus glycoproteins. Thus, these thiol group-bearing excipients presented the ability to attach covalently to the mucosa by the disulfide bonding. Nevertheless, the first generation of these thiol-modified polymers, named thiomers, presented disadvantages such as low stability in aqueous media and/or the high susceptibility towards oxidation along with the drawback of low sufficient reactive functional moieties on the polymeric backbone at lower pH. Therefore, in the 21st century, a second generation of preactivated or S-protected polymers with protected thiol moieties were developed, as well as a third generation of thiomers, solving some of the previously described problems. This review article aimed to highlight the progess on a potent sulfhydryl modification during the last decades and the posterior characterization and in vitro/ex vivo/in vivo mucoadhesiveness.

Abstract
Routes of drug administration and the corresponding physicochemical characteristics of a given route play significant roles in therapeutic efficacy and short term/long term biological effects. Each delivery method has favorable aspects and limitations, each requiring a specific delivery vehicles design. Among various routes, oral delivery has been recognized as the most attractive method, mainly due to its potential for solid formulations with long shelf life, sustained delivery, ease of administration and intensified immune response. At the same time, a few challenges exist in oral delivery, which have been the main research focus in the field in the past few years. The present work concisely reviews different administration routes as well as the advantages and disadvantages of each method, highlighting why oral delivery is currently the most promising approach. Subsequently, the present work discusses the main obstacles for oral systems and explains the most recent solutions proposed to deal with each issue.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study was designed to assess the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic performance of inhaled recombinant human insulin (rh-insulin) dry powders together with their safety profiles after 14-day inhalation. METHODS In the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study, pulmonary surfactant (PS)-loaded and phospholipid hexadecanol tyloxapol (PHT)-loaded rh-insulin dry powders were intratracheally administered to male rats at the dose of 20 U/kg. Novolin R was used as control. Serum glucose and rh-insulin concentrations were determined by glucose oxidase method and human rh-insulin CLIA kit, respectively. For the safety study, rats were exposed to rh-insulin dry powders or air for 14-day by nose-only inhalation chambers. Bronchoalveolar lavage and histopathology examinations were performed after inhalation. KEY FINDINGS There were no significant differences in the major pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters between PS-loaded and PHT-loaded rh-insulin dry powders. The relative bioavailabilities and pharmacodynamic availabilities were 39.9%, 25.6% for PS-loaded dry powders and 30.1%, 23% for PHT-loaded dry powders, respectively. Total protein was the only injury marker that was significantly altered. Histopathology examinations showed the ranking of irritations (from slight to severe) were PHT-loaded rh-insulin, negative air control and PS-loaded rh-insulin. CONCLUSIONS Both PS- and PHT-loaded rh-insulin dry powders were able to deliver rh-insulin systemically with appropriate pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and safety profiles.

Abstract
Arsenic trioxide (As2O3, ATO), a FDA approved drug for hematologic malignancies, was proved of efficient growth inhibition of cancer cell in vitro or solid tumor in vivo. However, its effect on solid tumor in vivo was hampered by its poor pharmacokinetics and dose-limited toxicity. In this study, a polyacrylic acid capped pH-triggered mesoporous silica nanoparticles was conducted to improve the pharmacokinetics and enhance the antitumor effect of arsenic trioxide. The mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with arsenic trioxide was grafted with polyacrylic acid (PAA-ATO-MSN) as a pH-responsive biomaterial on the surface to achieve the release of drug in acidic microenvironment of tumor, instead of burst release action in circulation. The nanoparticles were characterized with uniform grain size (particle sizes of 158.6 ± 1.3 nm and pore sizes of 3.71 nm, respectively), historically comparable drug loading efficiency (11.42 ± 1.75%), pH-responsive and strengthened sustained release features. The cell toxicity of amino groups modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (NH2-MSN) was significantly reduced by capping of polyacrylic acid. In pharmacokinetic studies, the half time (t1/2β) was prolonged by 1.3 times, and the area under curve) was increased by 2.6 times in PAA-ATO-MSN group compared with free arsenic trioxide group. Subsequently, the antitumor efficacy in vitro (SMMC-7721 cell line) and in vivo (H22 xenografts) was remarkably enhanced indicated that PAA-ATO-MSN improved the antitumor effect of the drug. These results suggest that the polyacrylic acid capped mesoporous silica nanoparticles (PAA-MSN) will be a promising nanocarrier for improving pharmacokinetic features and enhancing the anti-tumor efficacy of arsenic trioxide.
