ROS-responsive nano-medicine for navigating autophagy to enhance targeted therapy of inflammatory bowel disease. Int J Pharm 2024; 659:124117. [PMID: 38615805 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124117] [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: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic gastrointestinal disorder characterized by immune dysregulation and intestinal inflammation. Rapamycin (Ra), an mTORC1 pathway inhibitor, has shown promise for autophagy induction in IBD therapy but is associated with off-target effects and toxicity. To address these issues, we developed an oral liposome responsive to reactive oxygen species (ROS) using lipids and amphiphilic materials. We combined ketone thiol (TK) for ROS responsive and hyaluronic acid (HA) with high affinity for CD44 receptors to prepare rapamycin-loaded nanoparticle (Ra@TH). Owing to its ROS responsive characteristic, Ra@TH can achieve inflammatory colonic targeting. Additionally, Ra@TH can induce autophagy by inhibiting the mTORC1 pathway, leading to the clearance of damaged organelles, pathogenic microorganisms and oxidative stress products. Simultaneously, it also collaboratively inhibits the NF-κB pathway suppressed by the removal of ROS resulting from TK cleavage, thereby mediating the expression of inflammatory factors. Furthermore, Ra@TH enhances the expression of typical tight junction proteins, synergistically restoring intestinal barrier function. Our research not only expands the understanding of autophagy in IBD treatment but also introduces a promising therapeutic approach for IBD patients.

Injectable, self-healing hydrogels based on gelatin, quaternized chitosan, and laponite as localized celecoxib delivery system for nucleus pulpous repair. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131337. [PMID: 38574911 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131337] [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: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
Utilization of injectable hydrogels stands as a paradigm of minimally invasive intervention in the context of intervertebral disc degeneration treatment. Restoration of nucleus pulposus (NP) function exerts a profound influence in alleviating back pain. This study introduces an innovative class of injectable shear-thinning hydrogels, founded on quaternized chitosan (QCS), gelatin (GEL), and laponite (LAP) with the capacity for sustained release of the anti-inflammatory drug, celecoxib (CLX). First, synthesis of Magnesium-Aluminum-Layered double hydroxide (LDH) was achieved through a co-precipitation methodology, as a carrier for celecoxib and a source of Mg ions. Intercalation of celecoxib within LDH layers (LDH-CLX) was verified through a battery of analytical techniques, including FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDAX, TGA and UV-visible spectroscopy confirmed a drug loading efficiency of 39.22 ± 0.09 % within LDH. Then, LDH-CLX was loaded in the optimal GEL-QCS-LAP hydrogel under physiological conditions. Release behavior (15 days profile), mechanical properties, swelling ratio, and degradation rate of the resulting composite were evaluated. A G* of 15-47 kPa was recorded for the hydrogel at 22-40 °C, indicating gel stability in this temperature range. Self-healing properties and injectability of the composite were proved by rheological measurements. Also, ex vivo injection into intervertebral disc of sheep, evidenced in situ forming and NP cavity filling behavior of the hydrogel. Support of GEL-QCS-LAP/LDH-CLX (containing mg2+ ions) for viability and proliferation (from ~94 % on day 1 to ~134 % on day 7) of NP cells proved using MTT assay, DAPI and Live/Dead assays. The hydrogel could significantly upregulate secretion of glycosaminoglycan (GAG, from 4.68 ± 0.1 to 27.54 ± 1.0 μg/ml), when LHD-CLX3% was loaded. We conclude that presence of mg2+ ion and celecoxib in the hydrogel can lead to creation of a suitable environment that encourages GAG secretion. In conclusion, the formulated hydrogel holds promise as a minimally invasive candidate for degenerative disc repair.

Abstract
Nanocarrier preparations could effectively improve the utilization rate of pesticides, and reduce pesticide loss. In this study, glyphosate (GLY)-loaded MgAl layered double hydroxide (GLY@LDH) was synthesized via an in-situ method. Subsequently, GLY@LDH composite samples were prepared using a layer-by-layer self-assembly approach and modified with poly-L-aspartic acid (PASP) and chitosan (CS). XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and Zeta potential characterization confirmed that GLY was successfully loaded in the interlayer of LDHs and PASP/CS were successfully encapsulated on the surface of the composite sample. The release effect in different ionic solutions and soils was studied and analyzed. The release behavior conforms to the Ritger-Peppas kinetic model, and the release mechanism was ion exchange, which was further explored by means of XRD, SEM, and molecular simulation. The results of the anti-scouring experiment and contact angle measurement indicated that the layered self-assembly material enhanced the washing resistance of the material. The practical application effect of the sample was verified through a pot experiment. This study provides new insights into the simple preparation of pesticide-controlled release formulations that reduce leaching losses.

Abstract
In the present study, a pH-sensitive controlled drug delivery system was prepared from alginate beads impregnated with AlCu layered double hydroxides (LDH) supported copper metal-organic framework (Alg-DOX-Cu MOF-LDH beads) for controlled release from doxorubicin (DOX) to breast cancer cells. The physicochemical properties of Alg-DOX-Cu MOF-LDH beads were determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and Zeta potential. The in vitro release studies showed that the Alg-DOX-Cu MOF-LDH beads had more controlled drug release than the DOX-Cu MOF-LDH and in vitro release of DOX from both carriers showed pH-response release behavior. The kinetic adsorption studies also confirmed that the drug release from the DOX-Cu MOF-LDH and Alg-DOX-Cu MOF-LDH beads well obey the Korsmeyer-Peppas model. Meanwhile, in vitro cytotoxicity and DAPI tests on L929 (non-cancerous cells) and MCF-7 (human breast cancer cells) clearly showed that the prepared AlCu LDH and Cu MOF-LDH systems had good biocompatibility. Whereas, Alg-DOX-Cu MOF-LDH beads had higher cytotoxicity effects as a result of the controlled release of DOX to MCF-7 cells. These results suggested that the Alg-DOX-Cu MOF-LDH beads can be used as an excellent drug delivery system for cancer therapy and other biomedical applications.

State-of-the-art advancement of surface functionalized layered double hydroxides for cell-specific targeting of therapeutics. Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 314:102869. [PMID: 36933542 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2023.102869] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/07/2023]
Abstract
Over the years, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) hold a specific position in biomedicine due to their tunable chemical composition and appropriate structural properties. However, LDHs lack adequate sensitivity for active targeting because of less active surface area and low mechanical strength in physiological conditions. The exploitation of eco-friendly materials, such as chitosan (CS), for surface engineering of LDHs, whose payloads are transferred only under certain conditions, can help develop stimuli-responsive materials owing to high biosafety and unique mechanical strength. We aim to render a well-oriented scenario toward the latest achievements of a bottom-up technology relying on the surface functionalization of LDHs to fabricate functional formulations with promoted bio-functionality and high encapsulation efficiency for various bioactives. Many efforts have been devoted to critical aspects of LDHs, including systemic biosafety and the suitability for developing multicomponent systems via integration with therapeutic modalities, which are thoroughly discussed herein. In addition, a comprehensive discussion was provided for the recent progress in the emergence of CS-coated LDHs. Finally, the challenges and future perspectives in the fabrication of efficient CS-LDHs in biomedicine are considered, with a special focus on cancer treatment.

Abstract
Wearing masks has become the norm during the Coronavirus disease pandemic. Masks can reportedly interface with air pollutants and release microplastics and plastic additives such as phthalates. In this study, an experimental device was set up to simulate the impact of five kinds of masks (activated-carbon, N95, surgical, cotton, and fashion masks) on the risk of humans inhaling microplastics and phthalates during wearing. The residual concentrations of seven major phthalates ranged from 296 to 72,049 ng/g (median: 1242 ng/g), with the lowest and the highest concentrations detected in surgical (median: 367 ng/g) and fashion masks (median: 37,386 ng/g), respectively. During the whole inhalation simulation process, fragmented and 20-100 μm microplastics accounted for the largest, with a rapid release during the first six hours. After one day's wearing, that of 6 h, while wearing different masks, 25-135 and 65-298 microplastics were inhaled indoors and outdoors, respectively. The total estimated daily intake of phthalates with indoor and outdoor conditions by inhalation and skin exposure ranged from 1.2 to 13 and 0.43 to 14 ng/kg bw/d, respectively. Overall, surgical masks yield a protective effect, while cotton and fashion masks increase human exposure to microplastics and phthalates both indoors and outdoors compared to no mask wearing. This study observed possible risks from common facemasks and provided suggestions to consumers for selecting suitable masks to reduce exposure risks from microplastics and phthalate acid.

Abstract
The amino-functionalized cellulose with folic acid, via an esterification reaction between carboxylic acid of folic acid and hydroxyl groups of cellulose, can develop multifunctional products with new chemical and physical properties. Folic acid contains two carboxylic groups as well as an amine group that can be used as a coupling agent and provide suitable conditions for coupling hydroxyl-based compounds to cellulose. Also; the multi-functionalized cellulose with folic acid has no effects on the physical and mechanical properties and also has benefits such as antibacterial, UV protection, and wrinkle resistance. The FTIR-ATR and Raman analysis confirmed the amino functionalized-cellulosic fabric via an esterification reaction between cellulose and folic acid. The cell viability of L929 fibroblast (NCBI C161) and MCF-7 (NCBI C135) cancer cells indicated more effectiveness on MCF-7 cancer cells. Therefore; folic acid can be used as a biocompatible natural cross-linker to modify cellulose fabrics for apparel and medical applications.

Abstract
Despite the exceptional physicochemical and morphological characteristics, the pristine layered double hydroxides (LDHs), or two-dimensional (2D) hydrotalcite clays, often suffer from various shortcomings in biomedicine, such as deprived thermal and chemical stabilities, acid-prone degradation, as well as lack of targeting ability, hampering their scale-up and subsequent clinical translation. Accordingly, diverse nanocomposites of LDHs have been fabricated by surface coating of organic species, impregnation of inorganic species, and generation of core-shell architectures, resulting in the complex state-of-the-art architectures. In this article, we initially emphasize various bothering limitations and the chemistry of these pristine LDHs, followed by discussions on the engineering strategies of different LDHs-based nanocomposites. Further, we give a detailed note on diverse LDH nanocomposites and their performance efficacy in various biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, bioimaging, biosensing, tissue engineering and cell patterning, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) extraction, as well as photoluminescence, highlighting the influence of various properties of installed supramolecular assemblies on their performance efficacy. In summary, we conclude with interesting perspectives concerning the lessons learned to date and the strategies to be followed to further advance their scale-up processing and applicability in medicine.

Abstract
Disposable face masks are widely used as primary personal protective equipment to control the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Disposable face masks have been identified as a source of microplastics and a new threat to the environment when improperly handled. To understand the release of microplastics from discarded masks into water, the release quantities of microplastics from three types of disposable face masks (N95, medical surgical, and normal medical masks) were measured within 24 h and their release kinetics were analyzed over seven days. Results showed that polypropylene microplastics fibers and debris of various colors were released. N95 masks released 801 ± 71-2667 ± 97 microplastic particles/(piece·d), medical surgical masks released 1136 ± 87-2343 ± 168 microplastic particles/(piece·d), and normal medical masks released 1034 ± 119-2547 ± 185 microplastic particles/(piece·d), irrespective of the price, weight, or type of mask. The microplastics were first released fast and then slow. The Elovich equation described the release kinetics (R2 > 0.990), and the release rate did not differ with the type of mask. Microplastics of 100-500 μm and of <100 μm were released in large quantities and at rapid rates. Fiber and transparent microplastics accounted for a large proportion of those released, and their daily release proportion increased with time. Fiber microplastics <500 μm in length were predominant in the microplastics released from disposable face masks, indicating that disposable face masks could be a critical source of these in the aqueous environment. There is an urgent need to take action to implement a waste management system limiting the number of masks entering the environment.

Abstract
This review provides a summary of recent progress in the development of different nano-platforms for the efficient synergistic effect between photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy. In particular, this review focuses on various methods in which photosensitizers and chemotherapeutic agents are co-delivered to the targeted tumor site. In many cases, the photosensitizers act as drug carriers, but this review, also covers different types of appropriate nanocarriers that aid in the delivery of photosensitizers to the tumor site. These nanocarriers include transition metal, silica and graphene-based materials, liposomes, dendrimers, polymers, metal–organic frameworks, nano emulsions, and biologically derived nanocarriers. Many studies have demonstrated various benefits from using these nanocarriers including enhanced water solubility, stability, longer circulation times, and higher accumulation of therapeutic agents/photosensitizers at tumor sites. This review also describes novel approaches from different research groups that utilize various targeting strategies to increase treatment efficacy through simultaneous photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems are explained as methods to deliver a specific drug to desired organs, tissues, and cells for drug release to diseases treatment. Recently, considerable development has been interested in stimuli-responsive nano-systems, which respond to the essential pathological and physicochemical issues in diseased sites. During the last decades, researchers in the world presented, investigated, and implemented novel different nanomaterials with a focus on developing drug delivery. Polysaccharides including chitosan, alginate, hyaluronic acid, gums, and cellulose, as natural bio-materials, are suitable candidates for designing and formulations of these nano-systems because of the outstanding merits such as bio-compatibility, bio-degradability, non-toxicity, and gelling characteristics. On the other side, nanoparticles including metals (Au, Ag), metal oxides (Fe3O4, ZnO, CuO), or non-metal oxides (SiO2) and also, layered double hydroxides nanostructures have appealed significant consideration in the fields of biomedical therapeutics and cancer therapy owing to the bio-compatibility, great surface area, good chemical and mechanical features, and also proper magnetic characteristics. This comprehensive review provides an overview of current advancements in drug delivery strategies, and manufacturing methods using chitosan, alginate, hyaluronic acid, gums, and also, metals, metal oxides, non-metal oxides, and LDHs for delivery system uses.

Abstract
Layered Double Hydroxides (LDHs) are a group of hydrotalcite-like nano-sized materials with cationic layers and exchangeable interlayer anions. The wide range of divalent and trivalent cationic metals and anionic compounds are employed in the synthesis of LDH materials, which have improved their importance among the researchers. Because of their high anion exchange property, memory effect, tunable behavior, bio-friendly, simple preparation, and their affordability, these nano-materials are essentially interested today. Modification of LDHs improves their behaviours to make them appropriate in industrial fields, including biological, adsorbent, mechanical, optical, thermal, electrical fields, etc. This review has critically discussed the structural features, main properties, and also clarified the most important methods of modification and intercalation of LDH nano-materials. Moreover, some novel reported researches related to the successful modification of LDH materials have been characterized and briefly the advantages, disadvantages, and applications are presented in the industrial fields.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are an emergent class of biocompatible inorganic lamellar nanomaterials that have attracted significant research interest owing to their high surface-to-volume ratio, the capability to accumulate specific molecules, and the timely release to targets. Their unique properties have been employed for applications in organic catalysis, photocatalysis, sensors, drug delivery, and cell biology. Given the widespread contemporary interest in these topics, time-to-time it urges to review the recent progresses. This review aims to summarize the most recent cutting-edge reports appearing in the last years. It firstly focuses on the application of LDHs as catalysts in relevant chemical reactions and as photocatalysts for organic molecule degradation, water splitting reaction, CO2 conversion, and reduction. Subsequently, the emerging role of these materials in biological applications is discussed, specifically focusing on their use as biosensors, DNA, RNA, and drug delivery, finally elucidating their suitability as contrast agents and for cellular differentiation. Concluding remarks and future prospects deal with future applications of LDHs, encouraging researches in better understanding the fundamental mechanisms involved in catalytic and photocatalytic processes, and the molecular pathways that are activated by the interaction of LDHs with cells in terms of both uptake mechanisms and nanotoxicology effects.

The enhancement roles of sulfate on the adsorption of sodium dodecylsulfate by calcium-based layered double hydroxide: microstructure and thermal behaviors.

[PMID: 31073839 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-019-05295-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2019] [Accepted: 04/25/2019] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
As a commonly used surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) usually coexists with inorganic anions in the industrial wastewater. These anions have a significant influence on SDS removal, indirectly threatening the environment. It is important to understand the relationship between the adsorption of SDS and inorganic anions. In this study, calcium-based layered double hydroxide (CaAl-LDH-Cl) as an efficient adsorbent was synthesized for investigating the effect of SO42- on SDS removal. The SDS adsorption capacities were enhanced to 3.21 and 4.21 mmol g-1 in the presence of SO42- with low/high SDS concentration, respectively. The phenomenon and mechanism were confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Anionic exchange played a dominant role in the adsorption of SDS onto CaAl-LDH-Cl at DS-/SO42- < 2, while both anion exchange and precipitation occurred when DS-/SO42- exceeded 2. Moreover, the thermal analysis (TG-DTA) was employed to further reveal the interaction mechanism. The results showed the highest total mass loss and the lowest loss temperature of interlayer water in the sulfate coexist system, confirming the enhancement of SDS adsorption amount in the presence of SO42-.
