Abstract
Carrier materials always account for the majority particularly in nanosized formulations, which are administrated along with the active ingredient part might result in metabolism related toxicity. The usage of bioactive excipients could not only reduce the sided effect but also provide additional therapeutic effects. In the present study, a triterpene based micellar drug delivery system was developed using a bioactive solanesol derivative. Solanesylamine was prepared firstly followed by conjugating with poly (ethylene glycol) using maleic acid amide linkage. The amphiphilic drug carrier PEGylated (2-propyl-3-methylmaleic acid)-block-solanesol amine (mPEG-CDM-NH-SOL) could be formed into micelles and loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) inside. The micelles were about 112 nm in size and the drug loading content was about 5.97 wt%. An acid triggered drug release behavior was obviously observed for the DOX loaded pH-sensitive micelle mPEG-CDM-NH-SOL-DOX. While not for DOX-loaded micelles without pH-sensitivity (mPEG-NHS-NH-SOL). CCK8 assay showed that the micelles of PEGylated solanesylamines exhibited certain inhibitory effect on tumor cells at high concentration and the pH sensitive ones seemed more toxic. In vivo studies showed that the pH sensitive mPEG-CDM-NH-SOL-DOX had a superior anti-tumor effect, indicating its great potential in cancer treatment.

Bone 2023; 169:116677. [PMID: 36646264 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2023.116677] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2022] [Revised: 01/01/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
The high rate of relapse in craniofacial disharmony treatment via trans-sutural distraction osteogenesis (TSDO) is due to the failure to form a stable bone bridge in the suture gap. Bisphosphonates (BP) have a high propensity to localize to hydroxyapatite in the bone matrix and are commonly used as targeting ligands for local delivery of therapeutics into bone microenvironment. Bone-targeted Bortezomib (BP-Btz) is chemosynthetic by linking Btz (Bortezomib) to a BP residue and could target bone tissue to promote osteoblast differentiation and inhibit osteoclastogenesis. Here, suture-derived mesenchymal stem cells (SuSCs) and osteoclasts were treated with Btz and BP-Btz. Aforesaid drugs were injected locally into the sagittal sutures to explore their effects in TSDO. Further, pharmacological properties of BP-Btz in the suture expansion model were assessed by fluorescent BP analogs and levels of total ubiquitinated (Ub)-proteins. The results showed that BP-Btz could stimulate osteogenic differentiation of SuSCs, bind to bone matrix and inhibit osteoclastogenesis. Biological effects of BP-Btz were similar with those of Btz in osteoblast differentiation and osteoclastogenesis inhibition in vitro. Activated bone metabolism were detected after 14 days in the sagittal suture expansion model. Increased osteoid area, remarkably decreased osteoclast surface and enhanced osteogenesis were detected in vivo after treatment with BP-Btz. Green fluorescence signal detection and pharmacodynamic studies revealed that BP-Btz bound to suture edge, released Btz in remodeling conditions, had a higher local concentration and sustained longer than free Btz. This study delineated the clinical potential of bone-targeted Btz conjugate as an efficacious strategy to promote trans-sutural distraction osteogenesis.

Abstract
Bortezomib (BTZ) is the first proteasome inhibitor approved by the Food and Drug Administration. It can bind to the amino acid residues of the 26S proteasome, thereby causing the death of tumor cells. BTZ plays an irreplaceable role in the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma and multiple myeloma. Moreover, its use in the treatment of other hematological cancers and solid tumors has been investigated in numerous clinical trials and preclinical studies. Nevertheless, the applications of BTZ are limited due to its insufficient specificity, poor permeability, and low bioavailability. Therefore, in recent years, different BTZ-based drug delivery systems have been evaluated. In this review, we firstly discussed the functions of proteasome inhibitors and their mechanisms of action. Secondly, the properties of BTZ, as well as recent advances in both clinical and preclinical research, were reviewed. Finally, progress in research regarding BTZ-based nanoformulations was summarized.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is a major cancer treatment that uses antitumor drugs to kill fast-growing cancer cells. Many kinds of drug carriers have been developed to deliver and achieve controlled release of small-molecule therapeutic agents. However, many therapeutic agent carriers need complex preparation process. The natural polypeptides may serve as proper drug carriers. More specifically, polymyxin E (PE) is a kind of natural antibiotic lipopeptides. It is commonly used to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Herein, we present a facile method to prepare DOX-loaded polymyxin E micelles (PE-DOX micelles) to enhance the therapeutic effect of anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX). The hydrodynamic sizes and zeta potential of the prepared nanomedicine (PE-DOX micelles) were 142.0 nm and 6.47 mV, respectively. The release of DOX from PE-DOX micelles was faster at pH 5.5 than that at pH 7.4. Furthermore, PE exhibited negligible cytotoxicity to A549 cells and HeLa cells within 50 μg/mL, while PE-DOX micelles caused higher cytotoxicity than that of free DOX. Moreover, the intravenously injected PE-DOX micelles showed good biocompatibility and obvious antitumor effect after 14 days' treatment in vivo. The PE-DOX micelles have great potential to be used as anticancer agent in the future.

Abstract
Over the decades, researchers have strived to synthesize and modify nature-inspired biomaterials, with the primary aim to address the challenges of designing functional biomaterials for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Among these challenges, biocompatibility and cellular interactions have been extensively investigated. Some of the most desirable characteristics for biomaterials in these applications are the loading of bioactive molecules, strong adhesion to moist areas, improvement of cellular adhesion, and self-healing properties. Mussel-inspired biomaterials have received growing interest mainly due to the changes in mechanical and biological functions of the scaffold due to catechol modification. Here, we summarize the chemical and biological principles and the latest advancements in production, as well as the use of mussel-inspired biomaterials. Our main focus is the polydopamine coating, the conjugation of catechol with other polymers, and the biomedical applications that polydopamine moieties are used for, such as matrices for drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and hemostatic control. We also present a critical conclusion and an inspired view on the prospects for the development and application of mussel-inspired materials.
