Abstract
Successful oral insulin administration can considerably enhance the quality of life (QOL) of diabetes patients who must frequently take insulin injections. However, Oral insulin administration is seriously hampered by gastrointestinal enzymes, wide pH range, mucus and mucosal layers, which limit insulin oral bioavailability to ≤2 %. Herein, we developed a simple, inexpensive and safe dual β-cyclodextrin/dialdehyde glucan-coated keratin nanoparticle (β-CD-K-IN-DG). The resulted β-CD-K-IN-DG not only gave the ultra-high insulin loading (encapsulation efficiency (98.52 %)), but also protected insulin from acid and enzymatic degradation. This β-CD-K-IN-DG had a notable hypoglycemic effect, there was almost 80 % insulin release after 4 h of incubation under hyperglycemic conditions. Ex vivo results confirmed that β-CD-K-IN-DG possessed high mucus-penetration ability. Transepithelial transport and uptake mechanism studies revealed that bypass transport pathway and endocytosis promoted β-CD-K-IN-DG entered intestinal epithelial cells, thus increased the bioavailability of insulin (12.27 %). The improved stability of insulin during in vivo transport implied that β-CD-K-IN-DG might be a potential tool for the effective oral insulin administration.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease leading to the death of millions a year across the world. Insulin is required for Type 1, Type 2, and gestational diabetic patients, however, there are various modes of insulin delivery out of which oral delivery is noninvasive and convenient. Moreover, factors like insulin degradation and poor intestinal absorption play a crucial role in its bioavailability and effectiveness. This review discusses various types of engineered nanoparticles used in-vitro, in-vivo, and ex-vivo insulin delivery along with their administration routes and physicochemical properties. Injectable insulin formulations, currently in use have certain limitations, leading to invasiveness, low patient compliance, causing inflammation, and side effects. Based on these drawbacks, this review emphasizes more on the non-invasive route, particularly oral delivery. The article is important because it focuses on how engineered nanoparticles can overcome the limitations of free therapeutics (drugs alone), navigate the barriers, and accomplish precision therapeutics in diabetes. In future, more drugs could be delivered with a similar strategy to cure various diseases and resolve challenges in drug delivery. This review significantly describes the role of various engineered nanoparticles in improving the bioavailability of insulin by protecting it from various barriers during non-invasive routes of delivery.

Abstract
Oral drug administration has become the most common and preferred mode of disease treatment due to its good medication adherence and convenience. For orally administered drugs, the safety, efficacy, and targeting ability requirements have grown as disease treatment research advances. It is difficult to obtain prominent efficacy of traditional drugs simply via oral administration. Numerous studies have demonstrated that cyclodextrins (CDs) can improve the clinical applications of certain orally administered drugs by enhancing their water solubility and masking undesirable odors. Additionally, deeper studies have discovered that CDs can influence disease treatment by altering the drug pharmacokinetics (PK) or pharmacodynamics (PD). This review highlights recent research progress on the PK and PD effects of CD-based oral drug delivery in disease therapy. Firstly, the review describes the characteristics of current drug delivery modes in oral administration. Besides, we minutely summarized the different CD-containing drugs, focusing on the impact of CD-based alterations in PK or PD of orally administered drugs in treating diseases. Finally, we deeply discussed current challenges and future opportunities with regard to PK and PD of CD-based oral drug delivery formulations.

Abstract
Quercetin (QCT) has a variety of pharmacological effects, such as antioxidant, antibacterial, anticancer, anticardiovascular and antiaging effects. However, its poor water solubility, stability and bioavailability limit its applications. The special structure of cyclodextrins and their derivatives with a hydrophobic inner cavity and hydrophilic outer wall can load a variety of hydrophobic drugs of a suitable size and shape, thereby improving the stability and solubility of these molecules. In this study, an inclusion complex of quercetin and sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin was prepared. It was characterized via FT-IR, UV, 1H NMR, XRD, DSC, and SEM analysis, which revealed the successful formation of the inclusion complex. In vitro biological activity estimations were carried out and the results indicated that the inclusion complex displayed higher antioxidative and antibacterial properties compared with free QCT. In addition, the mechanisms of inclusion were explored using 1H NMR analysis and docking calculations, thus providing a theoretical basis for obtaining an inclusion complex.

Abstract
The glucose oligosaccharide-derived cyclodextrins (CDs) are used for improving bioactive compound production in plant cell cultures because, in addition to their elicitation activity, CDs promote product removal from cells. However, despite these advantages, the industrial application of CDs is hampered by their high market price. A strategy to overcome this constraint was recently tested, in which reusable CD polymers coated with magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were harnessed in Vitis vinifera cell cultures to produce t-resveratrol (t-R). In this study, we applied hydroxypropyl-β-CDs (HPCD) and HPCDs coated with magnetic nanoparticles (HPCD-EPI-MN) in methyl jasmonate (MJ)-treated transgenic Silybum marianum cultures ectopically expressing either a stilbene synthase gene (STS) or a chalcone synthase gene (CHS), and compared their effects on the yields of t-R and naringenin (Ng), respectively. HPCD-EPI-MN at 15 g/L stimulated the accumulation of metabolites in the culture medium of the corresponding transgenic cell lines, with up to 4 mg/L of t-R and 3 mg/L of Ng released after 3 days. Similar amounts were produced in cultures treated with HPCD. Concentrations higher than 15 g/L of HPCD-EPI-MN and prolonged incubation periods negatively affected cell growth and viability in both transgenic cell lines. Reutilization of HPCD-EPI-MN was possible in three elicitation cycles (72 h each), after which the polymer retained 25-30% of its initial efficiency, indicating good stability and reusability. Due to their capacity to adsorb metabolites and their recyclability, the application of magnetic CD polymers may reduce the costs of establishing efficient secondary metabolite production systems on a commercial scale. KEY POINTS: • Long-term transgenic S. marianum suspensions stably produce transgene products • t-R and Ng accumulated extracellularly in cultures elicited with HPCD and HPCD-EPI-MN • The recyclability of HPCD-EPI-MN for metabolite production was proven.

Acta Biomater 2021; 131:286-301. [PMID: 34246803 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 06/11/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
Injectable hydrogels have been studied as drug delivery systems because of their minimal invasiveness and sustained drug release properties. Pluronic F127, consisting of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) triblock copolymers, exhibits thermo-responsive properties and hence is injectable due to its rapid sol-gel transition. Unmodified Pluronic F127-based hydrogels, however, have limited long-term stability and controllable release of drugs entrapped within them. In this study, host-guest interactions between adamantane-conjugated Pluronic F127 (F127-Ad) and polymerized β-cyclodextrin (CDP) were employed to develop a hydrogel-based protein delivery system. Single or multiple adamantane units were successfully introduced at the termini of Pluronic F127 with a 100% conversion yield, and the synthesized F127-Ad polymer produced a physically crosslinked micelle-packing structure when mixed with CDP. As the number of adamantanes at the terminal ends of Pluronic F127 increased, the critical gelation concentration of F127-Ad/CDP hydrogel decreased from 15 to 6% (w/v). The F127/CDP hydrogel was able to maintain its structure even with lower polymer content, and its injectability improved with a reduction of the hydrogel viscosity. The long-term stability of F127/CDP hydrogels was evaluated in vitro and in vivo, and it was demonstrated that the subcutaneously injected hydrogel did not disintegrate for up to 30 d. Throughout the drug release test using gelatin and insulin as model drugs, it was demonstrated that their release rates could be regulated via complexation between the protein drugs and the β-cyclodextrin molecules inside the hydrogel. In conclusion, the F127-Ad/CDP hydrogel is expected to be a versatile protein delivery system with controllable durability and drug release characteristics. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Pluronic F127 is one of the widely studied polymeric materials for thermo-sensitive injectable hydrogels due to its high biocompatibility and rapid sol-gel transition. Since the Pluronic F127-based hydrogel has some limitations in its long-term stability and mechanical property, it is inevitable to modify its structure for the application to drug delivery. In this study, mono- or multi- adamantane-conjugated Pluronic F127s were synthesized and mixed with β-cyclodextrin polymers to form hydrogels with host-guest interaction-mediated micelle-packing structures. The host-guest interaction introduced into the hydrogel system endowed it a sustained protein drug release behavior as well as high durability in vitro and in vivo. By increasing the number of adamantane molecules at the end of the Pluronic F127, both the stability and injectability of the hydrogel could be also modulated.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are natural, nontoxic, and biodegradable macrocyclic oligosaccharides. As supramolecular hosts, CDs have numerous applications in many aspects. However, nonsubstituted CDs have the disadvantages of solubility, unspecific recognition sites, and weak interactions with guest molecules. Therefore, new CD-based derivatives are successfully designed, synthesized, and widely used in various fields. This contribution outlines the research progress in CD derivatives. In particular, this review emphasizes the synthesis and application of CDs modified through functionalization in definite positions, random substitution, and reconstruction of the skeleton. At the end of this review, a summary and future directions are presented.

Abstract
Oral delivery of insulin provides a good alternative because it is non-invasive and patient-friendly. However, multiple challenges affected this route. To overcome barriers for oral delivery of insulin, we aimed to develop a novel insulin-loaded microemulsion system based on snail mucin for oral administration. The strategy in the novel system of using mucin loading insulin into the inner core of prepared water in oil microemulsion to provide sustained released, increased in vivo stability and enhanced drug absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. We report how microemulsion composed of varying ratios of snail mucin and Tween® 80 (1:9–9:1) using oil/water emulsion preparation method influenced insulin performance after oral administration. The results obtained include an encapsulation efficiency of above 70 %; in vitro release was sustained over 10 h and in vivo evaluations in diabetic rat model shows that insulin-loaded microencapsulation effectively reduced blood glucose levels over a period >8 h after oral administration. Therefore, we suggest that the developed formulation for oral insulin can be a promising alternative dosage form for oral protein delivery.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemistry holds great potential for the design of versatile and safe carriers for therapeutic proteins and peptides. Nanocarriers can be designed to meet specific criteria for given application (exact drug, administration route, target tissue, etc.). However, alterations in the topology of formulation components can drastically change their activity. This is why the supramolecular topology of therapeutic nanoconstructions has to be considered. Herein, we discuss several topological groups used for the design of nanoformulations for peptide and protein delivery: modification of polypeptide chains by host-guest interactions; packaging of proteins and peptides into liposomes; complexation and conjugation with dendrimers. Each topological type has its own advantages and disadvantages, so careful design of nanoformulations is needed. Ideally, each case where nanomedicine is needed requires a therapeutic construction specially created for that taking into account features of the administration route, target tissue, or organ, properties of a drug, its bioavailability, etc. The wide number of studies in the field of protein delivery by supramolecular and nanocarriers for proteins and peptides evidence their increasing potential for different aspects of the innovative medicine. Although significant progress has been achieved in the field, there are several remaining challenges to be overcome in future.

Abstract
A novel oral protein delivery system with enhanced intestinal penetration and improved antigen stability based on chitosan (CS) nanoparticles and antigen-cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complex was prepared by a precipitation/coacervation method. Ovalbumin (OVA) as a model antigen was firstly encapsulated by cyclodextrin, either β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) or carboxymethyl-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (CM-HP-β-CD) and formed OVA-CD inclusion complexes, which were then loaded to chitosan nanoparticles to form OVA loaded β-CD/CS or CM-HP-β-CD/CS nanoparticles with uniform particle size (836.3 and 779.2 nm, respectively) and improved OVA loading efficiency (27.6% and 20.4%, respectively). In vitro drug release studies mimicking oral delivery condition of OVA loaded CD/CS nanoparticles showed low initial releases at pH 1.2 for 2 h less than 3.0% and a delayed release which was below to 30% at pH 6.8 for further 72 h. More importantly, after oral administration of OVA loaded β-CD/CS nanoparticles to Balb/c mice, OVA-specific sIgA levels in jejunum of OVA loaded β-CD/CS nanoparticles were 3.6-fold and 1.9-fold higher than that of OVA solution and OVA loaded chitosan nanoparticles, respectively. In vivo evaluation results showed that OVA loaded CD/CS nanoparticles could enhance its efficacy for inducing intestinal mucosal immune response. In conclusion, our data suggested that CD/CS nanoparticles could serve as a promising antigen-delivery system for oral vaccination.

Abstract
Although several strategies have been applied for oral insulin delivery to improve insulin bioavailability, little success has been achieved. To overcome multiple barriers to oral insulin absorption simultaneously, insulin-loaded N-trimethyl chitosan chloride (TMC)-coated polylactide-co-glycoside (PLGA) nanoparticles (Ins TMC-PLGA NPs) were formulated in our study. The Ins TMC-PLGA NPs were prepared using the double-emulsion solvent evaporation method and were characterized to determine their size (247.6 ± 7.2 nm), ζ-potential (45.2 ± 4.6 mV), insulin-loading capacity (7.8 ± 0.5%) and encapsulation efficiency (47.0 ± 2.9%). The stability and insulin release of the nanoparticles in enzyme-containing simulated gastrointestinal fluids suggested that the TMC-PLGA NPs could partially protect insulin from enzymatic degradation. Compared with unmodified PLGA NPs, the positively charged TMC-PLGA NPs could improve the mucus penetration of insulin in mucus-secreting HT29-MTX cells, the cellular uptake of insulin via clathrin- or adsorption-mediated endocytosis in Caco-2 cells and the permeation of insulin across a Caco-2 cell monolayer through tight junction opening. After oral administration in mice, the TMC-PLGA NPs moved more slowly through the gastrointestinal tract compared with unmodified PLGA NPs, indicating the mucoadhesive property of the nanoparticles after TMC coating. Additionally, in pharmacological studies in diabetic rats, orally administered Ins TMC-PLGA NPs produced a stronger hypoglycemic effect, with 2-fold higher relative pharmacological availability compared with unmodified NPs. In conclusion, oral insulin absorption is improved by TMC-PLGA NPs with the multiple absorption barriers overcome simultaneously. TMC-PLGA NPs may be a promising drug delivery system for oral administration of macromolecular therapeutics.
