Abstract
Although there are various advancements in biomedical in the past few decades, there are still challenges in the treatment of brain diseases. The main difficulties are the inability to deliver a therapeutic dose of the drug to the brain through the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the serious side effects of the drug. Thus, it is essential to select biocompatible drug carriers and novel therapeutic tools to better enhance the effect of brain disease treatment. In recent years, biomimetic nanoparticles (BNPs) based on natural cell membranes, which have excellent biocompatibility and low immunogenicity, are widely used in the treatment of brain diseases to enable the drug to successfully cross the BBB and target brain lesions. BNPs can prolong the circulation time in vivo, are more conducive to drug aggregation in brain lesions. Cell membranes (CMs) from cancer cells (CCs), red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and so on are used as biomimetic coatings for nanoparticles (NPs) to achieve the ability to target, evade clearance, or stimulate the immune system. This review summarizes the application of different cell sources as BNPs coatings in the treatment of brain diseases and discusses the possibilities and challenges of clinical translation.

Abstract
Nanovesicles (NVs) are widely used in the treatment and diagnosis of diseases due to their excellent vascular permeability, good biocompatibility, high loading capacity, and easy functionalization. However, their yield and in vivo penetration depth limitations and their complex preparation processes still constrain their application and development. Ultrasound, as a fundamental external stimulus with deep tissue penetration, concentrated energy sources, and good safety, has been proven to be a patient-friendly and highly efficient strategy to overcome the restrictions of traditional clinical medicine. Recent research has shown that ultrasound can drive the generation of NVs, increase their yield, simplify their preparation process, and provide direct therapeutic effects and intelligent control to enhance the therapeutic effect of NVs. In addition, NVs, as excellent drug carriers, can enhance the targeting efficiency of ultrasound-based sonodynamic therapy or sonogenetic regulation and improve the accuracy of ultrasound imaging. This review provides a detailed introduction to the classification, generation, and modification strategies of NVs, emphasizing the impact of ultrasound on the formation of NVs and summarizing the enhanced treatment and diagnostic effects of NVs combined with ultrasound for various diseases.

Li Q, Tang Z, Zhang Y, Yuan T, Yuan B, Du L, Jin Y. Application of low-intensity ultrasound by opening blood-brain barrier for enhanced brain-targeted drug delivery. Int J Pharm 2023; 642:123191. [PMID: 37391108 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.123191] [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: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/02/2023]
Abstract
Brain-targeted drug delivery has been a research hotspot, and substantial amount of related studies were already translated into standard therapy and put into clinical use. However, low effective rate retains a huge challenge for brain disease. Because, the blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects brain from pathogenic molecules and tightly controls the process of molecular transportation, which gives rise to poor-liposoluble drugs or molecules with high molecular weight cannot permeate the barrier to exert treating effect. There is an ongoing process to dig out more methods for efficient brain-targeted drug delivery. Besides modified chemical methods such as prodrugs design and brain-targeted nanotechnology, physical methods as a novel initiative could enhance the treatment effect for brain disease. In our study, the influence of low-intensity ultrasound on transient opening BBB and the related applications were explored. A medical ultrasound therapeutic device (1 MHz) was used on heads of mice at different intensities and for different treating time. Evans blue was used as a model to exhibit the permeability of the BBB after subcutaneous injection. Three types of intensities (0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 W/cm2) and duration times (1, 3, and 5 min) of ultrasound were respectively investigated. It was found that the combinations of 0.6 W/cm2/1 min, 0.6 W/cm2/3 min, 0.6 W/cm2/5 min, 0.8 W/cm2/1 min, and 1.0 W/cm2/1 min could open the BBB sufficiently with significant Evans blue staining in the brain. Brain pathological analysis showed structural change on moderate degree was found on cerebral cortex after ultrasound and could recovered rapidly. There are no obvious changes in the behavior of mice after ultrasound processing. More importantly, the BBB recovered quickly at 12 h after ultrasound application with complete BBB structure and unbroken tight junction, suggesting that ultrasound was safe to apply for brain-targeted drug delivery. Proper use of local ultrasound on the brain is a promising technique to open the BBB and enhance brain-targeted delivery.
