Chitosan- and hyaluronic acid-based nanoarchitectures in phototherapy: Combination cancer chemotherapy, immunotherapy and gene therapy. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 273:132579. [PMID: 38795895 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2024] [Revised: 05/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
Cancer phototherapy has been introduced as a new potential modality for tumor suppression. However, the efficacy of phototherapy has been limited due to a lack of targeted delivery of photosensitizers. Therefore, the application of biocompatible and multifunctional nanoparticles in phototherapy is appreciated. Chitosan (CS) as a cationic polymer and hyaluronic acid (HA) as a CD44-targeting agent are two widely utilized polymers in nanoparticle synthesis and functionalization. The current review focuses on the application of HA and CS nanostructures in cancer phototherapy. These nanocarriers can be used in phototherapy to induce hyperthermia and singlet oxygen generation for tumor ablation. CS and HA can be used for the synthesis of nanostructures, or they can functionalize other kinds of nanostructures used for phototherapy, such as gold nanorods. The HA and CS nanostructures can combine chemotherapy or immunotherapy with phototherapy to augment tumor suppression. Moreover, the CS nanostructures can be functionalized with HA for specific cancer phototherapy. The CS and HA nanostructures promote the cellular uptake of genes and photosensitizers to facilitate gene therapy and phototherapy. Such nanostructures specifically stimulate phototherapy at the tumor site, with particle toxic impacts on normal cells. Moreover, CS and HA nanostructures demonstrate high biocompatibility for further clinical applications.

BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2024; 157:213733.

Abstract
Cancer has become a major public health issue leading to one of the foremost causes of morbidity and death in the world. Despite the current advances in diagnosis using modern technologies and treatment via surgery or chemo- and radio-therapies, severe side effects or after-effects limit the application of these treatment modalities. Novel drug delivery systems have shown the potential to deliver chemotherapeutics directly to cancer cells, thus minimizing unnecessary exposure to healthy cells. Concurrently, to circumvent difficulties associated with conventional deliveries of cancer therapeutics, natural polysaccharides have gained attention for the fabrication of such deliveries owing to biocompatibility, low toxicity, and biodegradability. It has been exhibited that natural polysaccharides can deliver high therapeutic concentrations of the entrapped drug to the target cells by sustained and targeted release. Considering the immense potential of natural polymers, the present work focuses on naturally generated biopolymer carriers based on chitosan and hyaluronic acid. This review delineated on the role of chitosan and its derivation from renewable resources as a biocompatible, biodegradable, nonimmunogenic material with notable antitumor activity as a drug delivery carrier in oncotherapy. Moreover, hyaluronic acid, itself by its structure or when linked with other molecules contributes to developing promising pharmaceutical delivery systems to setback the restrictions related to conventional cancer treatment.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is a serious illness with a high rate of mortality. A high dose of theranostic drugs with efficient diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities should be required. Chemo-photothermal therapy is presently recognized as a secure method of cancer treatment that specifically targets tumour tissue or cells. Additionally, the success of cancer therapy is increased by the use of targeted nanoparticles. The current study aims to investigate the interaction between phototherapy and the anti-hepatocellular carcinoma treatment combination HA-GEM-MoS2/ZnO nanocomposites (NCs) loaded with gemcitabine and molybdenum disulphide. NCs were synthesized and characterized using FT-IR, XRD, TEM, and DLS analyses. The present investigation shows that the synthesized HA-MoS2/ZnO nanocomposites were elongated spherical in shape and their sizes ranged from 62.3 to 75.7 nm according to the estimation using XRD results, which is consistent with TEM findings. Further, HA-MoS2/ZnO nanocomposites could effectively encapsulate the GEM, showing dual pH and thermal triggered drug release behaviour. The result of cell uptake tests clearly demonstrated improved cellular uptake of synthesized nanocomposites following HA and GEM-loaded NCs in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines. In addition, combination therapies caused the highest incidence of cell death in hepatocellular carcinoma, according to cytotoxicity experiments and showed a good compatibility. In vitro studies prove that HA-GEM-MoS2/ZnO nanocomposites enhanced tumour treatment that combines chemotherapy and photothermal therapy to remove the tumour and prevent relapses. Still, no studies have been done to see if gemcitabine-encapsulated HA-MoS2/ZnO NCs inhibit human hepatocellular carcinoma cell. Hence, the current study can give a new paradigm for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and the outcome may be helpful to improve the quality of cancer patient's life.

Abstract
Nanomedicine application in cancer therapy is an urgency because of inability of current biological therapies for complete removal of tumor cells. The development of smart and novel nanoplatforms for treatment of cancer can provide new insight in tumor suppression. Hyaluronic acid is a biopolymer that can be employed for synthesis of smart nanostructures capable of selective targeting CD44-overexpressing tumor cells. The breast and lung cancers are among the most malignant and common tumors in both females and males that environmental factors, lifestyle and genomic alterations are among the risk factors for their pathogenesis and development. Since etiology of breast and lung tumors is not certain and multiple factors participate in their development, preventative measures have not been completely successful and studies have focused on developing new treatment strategies for them. The aim of current review is to provide a comprehensive discussion about application of hyaluronic acid-based nanostructures for treatment of breast and lung cancers. The main reason of using hyaluronic acid-based nanoparticles is their ability in targeting breast and lung cancers in a selective way due to upregulation of CD44 receptor on their surface. Moreover, nanocarriers developed from hyaluronic acid or functionalized with hyaluronic acid have high biocompatibility and their safety is appreciated. The drugs and genes used for treatment of breast and lung cancers lack specific accumulation at cancer site and their cytotoxicity is low, but hyaluronic acid-based nanostructures provide their targeted delivery to tumor site and by increasing internalization of drugs and genes in breast and lung tumor cells, they improve their therapeutic index. Furthermore, hyaluronic acid-based nanostructures can be used for phototherapy-mediated breast and lung cancers ablation. The stimuli-responsive and smart kinds of hyaluronic acid-based nanostructures such as pH- and light-responsive can increase selective targeting of breast and lung cancers.

Abstract
Low tumor delivery efficiency is a critical barrier in cancer nanomedicine. This study reports an updated version of "Nano-Tumor Database", which increases the number of time-dependent concentration data sets for different nanoparticles (NPs) in tumors from the previous version of 376 data sets with 1732 data points from 200 studies to the current version of 534 data sets with 2345 data points from 297 studies published from 2005 to 2021. Additionally, the current database includes 1972 data sets for five major organs (i.e., liver, spleen, lung, heart, and kidney) with a total of 8461 concentration data points. Tumor delivery and organ distribution are calculated using three pharmacokinetic parameters, including delivery efficiency, maximum concentration, and distribution coefficient. The median tumor delivery efficiency is 0.67% injected dose (ID), which is low but is consistent with previous studies. Employing the best regression model for tumor delivery efficiency, we generate hypothetical scenarios with different combinations of NP factors that may lead to a higher delivery efficiency of >3%ID, which requires further experimentation to confirm. In healthy organs, the highest NP accumulation is in the liver (10.69%ID/g), followed by the spleen 6.93%ID/g and the kidney 3.22%ID/g. Our perspective on how to facilitate NP design and clinical translation is presented. This study reports a substantially expanded "Nano-Tumor Database" and several statistical models that may help nanomedicine design in the future.

Targeted co-delivery of curcumin and erlotinib by MoS 2 nanosheets for the combination of synergetic chemotherapy and photothermal therapy of lung cancer. J Nanobiotechnology 2023; 21:333. [PMID: 37717020 PMCID: PMC10505307 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-023-02099-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 09/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Curcumin (Cur), a bioactive component of Chinese traditional medicine, has demonstrated inhibitory properties against cancer cell proliferation while synergistically enhancing the anticancer efficacy of erlotinib (Er). However, the individual limitations of both drugs, including poor aqueous solubility, lack of targeting ability, short half-life, etc., and their distinct pharmacokinetic profiles mitigate or eliminate their combined antitumor potential. RESULTS In this study, we developed a molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)-based delivery system, functionalized with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and biotin, and co-loaded with Cur and Er, to achieve efficient cancer therapy. The MoS2-PEG-Biotin-Cur/Er system effectively converted near-infrared (NIR) light into heat, thereby inducing direct photothermal ablation of cancer cells and promoting controlled release of Cur and Er. Biotin-mediated tumor targeting facilitated the selective accumulation of MoS2-PEG-Biotin-Cur/Er at the tumor site, thus enhancing the synergistic antitumor effects of Cur and Er. Remarkably, MoS2-PEG-Biotin-Cur/Er achieved the combination of synergistic chemotherapy and photothermal therapy (PTT) upon NIR irradiation, effectively suppressing lung cancer cell proliferation and inhabiting tumor growth in vivo. CONCLUSIONS The as-synthesized MoS2-PEG-Biotin-Cur/Er, featuring high targeting ability, NIR light-responsive drug release, and the integration of synergistic chemotherapy and PTT, may provide a promising strategy for the treatment of lung cancer in clinical practice.

Abstract
Nanomaterial development has been extensively investigated for several decades to realize sensitive and accurate imaging of tumors in vivo. The manufacturing of nanoparticles with highly efficient tumor targeting and excellent optical properties is still an important research topic. The structure and composition ratio of materials that decisively contribute to the brightness and size of nanoparticles have a great influence on image sensitivity and tumor targeting efficiency. In this study, we developed aggregation-induced emission (AIE) nanoparticles with a widened light absorption window (nanoPMeOCN/BDP) to enable sensitive in vivo tumor imaging. The signal of nanoparticles is enhanced by integrating a high-density AIE polymer (PMeOCN) and light-absorbing fluorescent dye (BDP) in a nanoscopic space. BDP not only improves the light absorption of particles but also enhances the fluorescence signal of particles by effectively transferring absorbed energy to PMeOCN. The physically blended nanoPMeOCN/BDP show strong light absorption and improved sensitivity for the imaging of biological tissues because of their excellent optical performance compared to nanoPMeOCN of similar nanosizes (∼19 nm in size). In vivo imaging results further confirm that nanoPMeOCN/BDP can provide amplified signals with the successful accumulation of tumor tissue through the enhanced permeability and retention effect. We expect that the design strategy of nanoparticles with improved light absorption will provide a simple and general method for improving the accuracy of disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Molecularly targeted drugs are flourishing in the clinical treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the treatment of a single drug (such as Gefitinib (Geb)) had defects such as poor pharmacokinetics, insufficient drug delivery, and considerable toxic side effects, which greatly affect its therapeutic efficacy against NSCLC. To solve these issues, this study developed a new nanocomposite heterogeneous platform (MSNs@Ag@Geb-FA) that combined photothermal therapy and molecular targeted therapy. The high specific surface area empowered mesoporous silicon dioxide (SiO2) heterostructure the ability to efficiently load Ag photothermal agents and anti-tumor drug Geb. Meanwhile, a favorable pH response (degradation of residual MnO2) achieved the controlled release of Ag and Geb. Besides, the targeting and endocytosis properties of nano drugs were greatly improved through the modification of folic acid (FA). Both in vivo and in vitro experiments authenticated that this nanocomposite heterogeneous platform could effectively integrate the multiple tumor suppressor properties of Ag nanoparticles and cooperate with Geb to hasten A549 cell apoptosis, thereby achieving a favorable anti-tumor effect. This heterogeneous structure of the nanocomposite heterogeneous platform could provide an effective strategy for the treatment of NSCLC.

Abstract
Designing novel systems for efficient cancer treatment and improving the quality of life for patients is a prime requirement in the healthcare sector. In this regard, theranostics have recently emerged as a unique platform, which combines the benefits of both diagnosis and therapeutics delivery. Theranostics have the desired contrast agent and the drugs combined in a single carrier, thus providing the opportunity for real-time imaging to monitor the therapy results. This helps in reducing the hazards related to treatment overdose or underdose and gives the possibility of personalized therapy. Polysaccharides, as natural biomolecules, have been widely explored to develop theranostics, as they act as a matrix for simultaneously loading both contrast agents and drugs for their utility in drug delivery and imaging. Additionally, their remarkable physicochemical attributes (biodegradability, satisfactory safety profile, abundance, and diversity in functionality and charge) can be tuned via postmodification, which offers numerous possibilities to develop theranostics with desired characteristics. Hence, we provide an overview of recent advances in polysaccharide matrix-based theranostics for drug delivery combined with magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, positron emission tomography, single photon emission computed tomography, and ultrasound imaging. Herein, we also summarize the toxicity assessment of polysaccharides, associated contrast agents, and nanotoxicity along with the challenges and future research directions.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) based on nanoparticle had been widely used to antitumor treatment. However, low photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) is the main hurdle for antitumor treatment. To improve the PCE and gain ideal clinical the nanoparticle with higher photothermal conversion efficiency, we have developed a highly efficient solar absorber with MoS2/LaF3/ polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS) which can enhance the absorption of solar irradiation engergy, however, its photothermal effect irradiated by near-infrared light has not yet been investigated. The knowledge absence in photothermal effect will impede MoS2/LaF3/PDMS to be used for cancer therapy in clinic. In this study, we applied LaF3-loaded, MoS2-based photothermal conversion agents (PTAs) for improved photothermal cancer therapy. The study showed that the MoS2/LaF3 nanoflowers showed higher photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE, 42.5%) and could more effectively inhibit cancer cell proliferation compared to MoS2-based PTT agents in vitro. In vivo, the results further revealed that photothermal therapy using MoS2/LaF3 nanoflowers could significantly inhibit solid tumor growth. The study clearly demonstrated that MoS2/LaF3 could work at under low power NIR Laser in vitro and in vivo, resulting in a very impressive therapeutic effect in tumor-bearing mice. The MoS2/LaF3 nanoflowers will be prominent candidate nanoparticle for effective inhibiting tumor growth by photothermal therapy.

Abstract
Tumor antigens released from tumor cells after local photothermal therapy (PTT) can activate the tumor-specific immune responses, which are critical for eliminating the residual lesions and distant metastases. However, the limited recognition efficiency of released tumor antigens by the immune system and the immunosuppressive microenvironment lead to ineffective antitumor immunity. Here, an in situ multifunctional vaccine based on bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs, 1-MT@OMV-Mal) is developed by surface conjunction of maleimide groups (Mal) and interior loading with inhibitor of indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO), 1-methyl-tryptophan (1-MT). 1-MT@OMV-Mal can bind to the released tumor antigens after PTT, and be efficiently recognized and taken up by dendritic cells. Furthermore, in situ injection of 1-MT@OMV-Mal simultaneously overcomes the immune inhibition of IDO on tumor-infiltrating effector T cells, leading to remarkable inhibition on both primary and distant tumors. Together, a promising in situ vaccine based on OMVs to facilitate immune-mediated tumor clearance after PTT through orchestrating antigen capture and immune modulation is presented.

Abstract
Molybdenum is a trace dietary element necessary for the survival of humans. Some molybdenum-bearing enzymes are involved in key metabolic activities in the human body (such as xanthine oxidase, aldehyde oxidase and sulfite oxidase). Many molybdenum-based compounds have been widely used in biomedical research. Especially, MoS2-nanomaterials have attracted more attention in cancer diagnosis and treatment recently because of their unique physical and chemical properties. MoS2 can adsorb various biomolecules and drug molecules via covalent or non-covalent interactions because it is easy to modify and possess a high specific surface area, improving its tumor targeting and colloidal stability, as well as accuracy and sensitivity for detecting specific biomarkers. At the same time, in the near-infrared (NIR) window, MoS2 has excellent optical absorption and prominent photothermal conversion efficiency, which can achieve NIR-based phototherapy and NIR-responsive controlled drug-release. Significantly, the modified MoS2-nanocomposite can specifically respond to the tumor microenvironment, leading to drug accumulation in the tumor site increased, reducing its side effects on non-cancerous tissues, and improved therapeutic effect. In this review, we introduced the latest developments of MoS2-nanocomposites in cancer diagnosis and therapy, mainly focusing on biosensors, bioimaging, chemotherapy, phototherapy, microwave hyperthermia, and combination therapy. Furthermore, we also discuss the current challenges and prospects of MoS2-nanocomposites in cancer treatment.

Abstract
A variety of 2D materials have been developed for therapeutic biomedical studies. Because of their excellent physicochemical properties, 2D materials can be used as carriers for delivering therapeutic agents into a lesion, leading to phototherapy. Various optical imaging techniques have been used for the monitoring of the treatment process. Among these, photoacoustic imaging has unique advantages including relatively deep imaging depth and large field of view with high spatial resolution. In this review article, we summarize the types of photoacoustic imaging systems used for phototherapy monitoring, then we explore contrast-enhanced photoacoustic images using 2D materials. Finally, photoacoustic image-guided phototherapies are discussed. We conclude that 2D material-based phototherapy can be efficiently monitored by photoacoustic imaging techniques.

Abstract
Cancer theranostics is a new strategy for combating cancer that integrates cancer imaging and treatment through theranostic agents to provide an efficient and safe way to improve cancer prognosis. Design and synthesis of these cancer theranostic agents are crucial since these agents are required to be biocompatible, tumor-specific, imaging distinguishable and therapeutically efficacious. In this regard, several types of gadolinium (Gd)-based nanomaterials have been introduced to combine different therapeutic agents with Gd to enhance the efficacy of therapeutic agents. At the same time, the entire treatment procedure could be monitored via imaging tools due to incorporation of Gd ions, Gd chelates and Gd/other imaging probes in the theranostic agents. This review aims to overview recent advances in the Gd-based nanomaterials for cancer theranostics and perspectives for Gd nanomaterial-based cancer theranostics are provided.

Adv Healthc Mater 2020; 9:e2000899.

Abstract
To overcome biological barriers for nanoparticles (NPs) efficaciously accumulated at tumor sites, as well as enhancing the performance of drug delivery systems, a carrier-free nanoparticle based on charge reversal is designed for improved synergetic chemo-phototherapy for cancer treatment. In this system, doxorubicin (Dox) and zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) are self-assembled through noncovalent interactions (π-π stacking, hydrophobic forces) to avoid the possible toxicity of excipient, complex chemical conjugations and batch-to-batch variation. A trace amount of poly(2-(di-methylamino) ethylmethacrylate)- poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate]- poly(2-(dimethylamino) ethylmethacrylate (PDMAEMA-PHB-PDMAEMA) is modified on the surface of Dox-ZnPc to construct the novel nanoparticles, namely DZP, with long-term stability, and with a dual-drug load content of up to ≈90%. The drug delivery system (DDS) can effectively decrease its toxicity among physical circulation and increase the accumulation at the tumor site. Moreover, the developed DZP nanoparticles show excellent photo-chemotherapy, photoacoustic (PA) and fluorescence (FL) imaging characteristics for multimodal imaging-guided synergetic therapy.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy, in which light is converted into heat and triggers local hyperthermia to ablate tumors, presents an inherently specific and noninvasive treatment for tumor tissues. In this area, the development of efficient photothermal agents (PTAs) has always been a central topic. Although many efforts have been made on the investigation of novel molecular architectures and photothermal materials over the past decades, PTAs can cause severe damage to normal tissues because of the poor tumor aggregate ability and high irradiation density. Recently, dual-targeted photothermal agents (DTPTAs) provide an attractive strategy to overcome these problems and enhance cancer therapy. DTPTAs are functionalized with two classes of targeting units, including tumor environment targeting sites, tumor targeting sites and organelle targeting sites. In this perspective, typical targeted ligands and representative examples of photothermal therapeutic agents with dual-targeted properties are systematically summarized and recent advances using DTPTAs in tumor therapy are highlighted.

Abstract
Cancer represents one of the main causes of death in the world; hence the development of more specific approaches for its diagnosis and treatment is urgently needed in clinical practice. Here we aim at providing a comprehensive review on the use of 2-dimensional materials (2DMs) in cancer theranostics. In particular, we focus on graphene-related materials (GRMs), graphene hybrids, and graphdiyne (GDY), as well as other emerging 2DMs, such as MXene, tungsten disulfide (WS2), molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), black phosphorus (BP), silicene, antimonene (AM), germanene, biotite (black mica), metal organic frameworks (MOFs), and others. The results reported in the scientific literature in the last ten years (>200 papers) are dissected here with respect to the wide variety of combinations of imaging methodologies and therapeutic approaches, including drug/gene delivery, photothermal/photodynamic therapy, sonodynamic therapy, and immunotherapy. We provide a unique multidisciplinary approach in discussing the literature, which also includes a detailed section on the characterization methods used to analyze the material properties, highlighting the merits and limitations of the different approaches. The aim of this review is to show the strong potential of 2DMs for use as cancer theranostics, as well as to highlight issues that prevent the clinical translation of these materials. Overall, we hope to shed light on the hidden potential of the vast panorama of new and emerging 2DMs as clinical cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Fluorescence bioimaging is very significant in studying biological processes. Fluorescent nanoparticles (NPs) manufactured from aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials, as promising candidates, have attracted more attention. However, it is still a challenge to explore suitable AIE NPs for bioimaging. Herein, we synthesized pyrazoline-BODIPY (PZL-BDP) with a donor and acceptor (D-A) structure by a condensation reaction, cultured its single crystal, and studied its twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) and AIE effects. PZL-BDP could self-assemble to form red fluorescent nanoparticles (PZL-BDP NPs) which showed a good fluorescence quantum yield of 15.8% in water. PZL-BDP NPs with excellent stability and biocompatibility exhibited a large Stokes shift (Δλ = 111 nm) which resulted in the reduction of external interference and enhancement of the fluorescence contrast. Furthermore, these nanoparticles could be readily internalized by HeLa cells and they stain the cells in just five seconds, indicating an ultrafast bioimaging protocol. Moreover, long-term tracking fluorescence signals in vivo for about 12 days were obtained. The bright red fluorescence, ultrafast cell staining ability, and long-term in vivo tracking competence outline the great potential of rational design nanomaterials with AIE characteristics for monitoring biological processes.
