Abstract
Metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) have garnered significant attention due to their ability to improve the therapeutic index of medications by reducing multidrug resistance and effectively delivering therapeutic agents through active targeting. In addition to drug delivery, MNPs have several medical applications, including in vitro and in vivo diagnostics, and they improve the biocompatibility of materials and nutraceuticals. MNPs have several advantages in drug delivery systems and genetic manipulation, such as improved stability and half-life in circulation, passive or active targeting into the desired target selective tissue, and gene manipulation by delivering genetic materials. The main goal of this review is to provide current information on the present issues and prospects of MNPs in drug and gene delivery systems. The current study focused on MNP preparation methods and their characterization by different techniques, their applications to targeted delivery, non-viral vectors in genetic manipulation, and challenges in clinical trial translation.

Fabrication of Fe(III)-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticles as biocompatible and biodegradable theranostic system for Remdesivir delivery and MRI contrast agent. INORG CHEM COMMUN 2023; 150:110398. [PMID: 36644526 PMCID: PMC9827735 DOI: 10.1016/j.inoche.2023.110398] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2022] [Revised: 12/31/2022] [Accepted: 01/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Coronavirus causes the majority of common colds and is spread in the same way that all viruses attack the respiratory system. Despite the trials and efforts to produce a suitable vaccine, there are solutions for the quick, effective and efficient use of existing drugs to prevent infections and improve the condition of patients. In this study, we synthesized mSiO2 NPs doped with Fe(III) (Fe(III)-mSiO2) and loaded with Rd, and then the NPs coated with PDA as gatekeeper. The several surface methods successfully approved fabrication of the nanosystem. Finally, the application of nanosystem as theranostic system was studied. The DLS measurements showed the average sizes of 115 ± 2 and 124 ± 3.6 nm for Fe-SiO2 and Fe-SiO2@PDA NPs, respectively, suitable for theranostic intentions. The drug release experiments, the in-vitro MRI measurements and MTT test were accomplished, respectively, to show applicability of the nanosystem as a biodegradable Rd delivery system, MRI contrast agent, and the biocompatibility nanocarrier. The results achieved through in-vitro tests exhibited that the Fe-SiO2 system has potential application as a contrast agent in MRI with relaxivity (r1) of 14 ± 1 mM-1 s-1. The Rd drug was released from the Fe-SiO2(Rd)load@PDA system more efficient and faster than SiO2(Rd)load@PDA at 7.4, supporting the doping of Fe in SiO2 induces a biodegradability feature in that. The in-vitro biocompatibility studies showed that the Fe-SiO2 NPs (without drug) is not toxic.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) serves as a protective barrier for the central nervous system (CNS) against drugs that enter the bloodstream. The BBB is a key clinical barrier in the treatment of CNS illnesses because it restricts drug entry into the brain. To bypass this barrier and release relevant drugs into the brain matrix, nanotechnology-based delivery systems have been developed. Given the unstable nature of NPs, an appropriate amount of a biocompatible polymer coating on NPs is thought to have a key role in reducing cellular cytotoxicity while also boosting stability. Human serum albumin (HSA), poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), Polylactide (PLA), poly (alkyl cyanoacrylate) (PACA), gelatin, and chitosan are only a few of the significant polymers mentioned. In this review article, we categorized polymer-coated nanoparticles from basic to complex drug delivery systems and discussed their application as novel drug carriers to the brain.

Abstract
Polyacrylic acid (PAA) is a non-toxic, biocompatible, and biodegradable polymer that gained lots of interest in recent years. PAA nano-derivatives can be obtained by chemical modification of carboxyl groups with superior chemical properties in comparison to unmodified PAA. For example, nano-particles produced from PAA derivatives can be used to deliver drugs due to their stability and biocompatibility. PAA and its nanoconjugates could also be regarded as stimuli-responsive platforms that make them ideal for drug delivery and antimicrobial applications. These properties make PAA a good candidate for conventional and novel drug carrier systems. Here, we started with synthesis approaches, structure characteristics, and other architectures of PAA nanoplatforms. Then, different conjugations of PAA/nanostructures and their potential in various fields of nanomedicine such as antimicrobial, anticancer, imaging, biosensor, and tissue engineering were discussed. Finally, biocompatibility and challenges of PAA nanoplatforms were highlighted. This review will provide fundamental knowledge and current information connected to the PAA nanoplatforms and their applications in biological fields for a broad audience of researchers, engineers, and newcomers. In this light, PAA nanoplatforms could have great potential for the research and development of new nano vaccines and nano drugs in the future.
