Formation of cinnamon essential oil/xanthan gum/chitosan composite microcapsules basing on Pickering emulsions. Colloid Polym Sci 2022; 300:1187-1195. [PMID: 36090674 PMCID: PMC9446719 DOI: 10.1007/s00396-022-05019-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2022] [Revised: 08/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
Cinnamon essential oil (CNO) is a natural and renewable antibacterial agent. However, CNO is highly volatile and unstable, which limits its practical application as a long-term and wide antibacterial agent. In order to improve the CNO stability, we have microencapsulated CNO into composite microcapsules basing on Pickering emulsion stabilized by silica (SiO2) nanoparticles. The CNO-loaded composite microcapsules possess the hybrid microcapsule shell including SiO2, xanthan gum and chitosan. Moreover, the results show that the microcapsules have spherical appearance. Microencapsulation technique effectively promotes the CNO stability, and the loaded CNO is slowly released from microcapsules. The antibacterial test indicates that the minimal inhibitory concentration of microcapsules was 2 mg mL−1 against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, and the microcapsules can play an effective long-term antibacterial effect. Thus, Pickering emulsion templates is a convenient and effective technique to construct antibacterial essential oil-contained microcapsules, which can be used as long-term antibacterial agents.

Abstract
The utilization of natural gum polysaccharides as the vehicle for drug delivery systems and other biomedical applications has increased in recent decades. Their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and price are much cheaper than other materials. It is also renewable and available in massive amounts, which are the main reasons for its use in pharmaceutical applications. Gum can be easily functionalized with other natural polymers to enhance their applications. Various aspects of the utilization of natural gums in the forms of polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) for drug delivery systems are discussed in this review. The application of different mathematical models were used to represent the drug release mechanisms from PECs; these models include a zero-order equation, first-order equation, Higuchi, simplified Higuchi, Korsmeyer–Peppas, and Peppas–Sahlin.

Abstract
Periodontal diseases are worldwide health problems that negatively affect the lifestyle of many people. The long-term effect of the classical treatments, including the mechanical removal of bacterial plaque, is not effective enough, causing the scientific world to find other alternatives. Polymer-drug systems, which have different forms of presentation, chosen depending on the nature of the disease, the mode of administration, the type of polymer used, etc., have become very promising. Hydrogels, for example (in the form of films, micro-/nanoparticles, implants, inserts, etc.), contain the drug included, encapsulated, or adsorbed on the surface. Biologically active compounds can also be associated directly with the polymer chains by covalent or ionic binding (polymer-drug conjugates). Not just any polymer can be used as a support for drug combination due to the constraints imposed by the fact that the system works inside the body. Biopolymers, especially polysaccharides and their derivatives and to a lesser extent proteins, are preferred for this purpose. This paper aims to review in detail the biopolymer-drug systems that have emerged in the last decade as alternatives to the classical treatment of periodontal disease.

Abstract
We aimed to design and manufacture a transporter capable of delivering small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) into the skin without causing any damage. β-glucans are unique chiral polysaccharides with well-defined immunological properties and supramolecular wrapping ability. However, the chiral properties of these polymers have hardly been applied in drug delivery systems. In this study, β-glucan nanoparticles were designed and manufactured to deliver genetic material to the target cells. The β-glucan molecules were self-assembled with an siRNA into nanoparticles of 300–400 nm in diameter via a conformational transition process, in order to construct a gene delivery system. The assembled gene nanocarriers were associated with high gene-loading ability. The expression and efficiency of siRNA were verified after its delivery via β-glucan. Our results provide evidence that β-glucan nanoparticles can be effectively used to deliver siRNA into the cells.

Abstract
There are numerous issues associated with bacteria, particularly biofilms, which exhibit a strong resistance to antibiotics. This is currently considered an urgent global issue owing to the lack of effective treatments. Graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets are two-dimensional carbon materials that are available as a substrate for metal nanoparticles and have a lower release rate of metal ions than free metal nanoparticles by regulating the oxidation of metal nanoparticles, which is known to reduce the cytotoxicity caused by the free metal nanoparticles. Over centuries, metal particles, including Ag and Cu, have been considered as antibacterial agents. In this study, Ag and Cu bimetallic nanoparticles on a GO surface (Ag/Cu/GO) were synthesized using a chemical reduction method, and their antimicrobial effects against several bacterial species were demonstrated. Ag/Cu/GO nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The in vitro cytotoxicity of an Ag/Cu/GO nanocomposite was evaluated in human dermal fibroblasts, and its antibacterial activity against Methylobacterium spp., Sphingomonas spp., and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) was also tested. The synthesized Ag/Cu/GO nanocomposite was able to eradicate all three bacterial species at a concentration that was harmless to human cells. In addition, Ag/Cu/GO successfully removed a biofilm originated from the culturing of P. aeruginosa in a microchannel with a dynamic flow. In a small-animal model, a biofilm-infected skin wound was healed quickly and efficiently by the topical application of Ag/Cu/GO. The Ag/Cu/GO nanocomposites reported in this study could be used to effectively remove antibiotic-resistant bacteria and treat diseases in the skin or wound due to bacterial infections and biofilm formation.

Abstract
The topical delivery of siRNA-based therapies has opened new avenues for the treatment of skin disorders. The use of siRNA as a therapeutic, however, is limited due to its rapid degradation and poor cellular uptake. Furthermore, the top layer of skin, the stratum corneum, is a major barrier to the delivery of topical agents. There is an unmet need for efficient topical formulations for delivering siRNA to the site of action. In this study, 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane (DOTAP) or lipofectamine is used to prepare a nanocarrier for delivering siRNA against glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH); GAPDH expression is then evaluated at the cellular level. In addition, a dermal transport assay is designed and implemented to evaluate the penetration and delivery efficacy of siRNA in pig skin using lipid nanocarriers. The delivery of siRNA with the use of a lipid nanocarrier is significantly better than the delivery of siRNA without it. Thus, the findings identify lipid nanocarriers as excellent candidates for the transdermal delivery of siRNA for gene silencing in the skin and thus for applications in related preclinical models.

Abstract
The new era of nanotechnology has produced advanced nanomaterials applicable to various fields of medicine, including diagnostic bio-imaging, chemotherapy, targeted drug delivery, and biosensors. Various materials are formed into nanoparticles, such as gold nanomaterials, carbon quantum dots, and liposomes. The nanomaterials have been functionalized and widely used because they are biocompatible and easy to design and prepare. This review mainly focuses on nanomaterials responsive to the external stimuli used in drug-delivery systems. To overcome the drawbacks of conventional therapeutics to a tumor, the dual- and multi-responsive behaviors of nanoparticles have been harnessed to improve efficiency from a drug delivery point of view. Issues and future research related to these nanomaterial-based stimuli sensitivities and the scope of stimuli-responsive systems for nanomedicine applications are discussed.

Abstract
When ingesting a drug on its own or injecting it directly into tissue, its concentration increases immediately within the body, which often exacerbates the side effects and increases its toxicity. To solve this problem, we synthesized the thermally reactive polymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and prepared nanocarriers by binding PNIPAM to gold nanorods (GRs), with the anticancer agent doxorubicin (DOX) used as a model drug. PNIPAM changes from hydrophilic to hydrophobic at temperatures above its lower critical solution temperature, which represents a coil-to-globule volume phase transition. Because GRs absorb near-infrared (NIR) laser light and emit energy, PNIPAM aggregation occurs when the synthesized PNIPAM/GR are subjected to an NIR laser, and the temperature of the GRs rises. Using this principle, DOX was combined with the PNIPAM/GR complex, and the resulting anticancer effects with and without laser treatment were observed in Hela and MDA-MB-231 cells. In our proposed complex, the GR binding rate of PNIPAM reached 20% and the DOX binding rate reached 15%. The release profile of the drug following laser irradiation was determined using a drug release test and confocal microscopy imaging. It was subsequently confirmed that the release of the drug is higher at higher temperatures, especially with laser treatment. The proposed combination of temperature-reactive polymers and gold nanostructures shows promise for future research into controlled drug release.

Abstract
The engineering of tissues under a three-dimensional (3D) microenvironment is a great challenge and needs a suitable supporting biomaterial-based scaffold that may facilitate cell attachment, spreading, proliferation, migration, and differentiation for proper tissue regeneration or organ reconstruction. Polysaccharides as natural polymers promise great potential in the preparation of a three-dimensional artificial extracellular matrix (ECM) (i.e., hydrogel) via various processing methods and conditions. Natural polymers, especially gums, based upon hydrogel systems, provide similarities largely with the native ECM and excellent biological response. Here, we review the origin and physico-chemical characteristics of potentially used natural gums. In addition, various forms of scaffolds (e.g., nanofibrous, 3D printed-constructs) based on gums and their efficacy in 3D cell culture and various tissue regenerations such as bone, osteoarthritis and cartilage, skin/wound, retinal, neural, and other tissues are discussed. Finally, the advantages and limitations of natural gums are precisely described for future perspectives in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in the concluding remarks.

Abstract
Xanthan gum is a microbial high molecular weight exo-polysaccharide produced by Xanthomonas bacteria (a Gram-negative bacteria genus that exhibits several different species) and it has widely been used as an additive in various industrial and biomedical applications such as food and food packaging, cosmetics, water-based paints, toiletries, petroleum, oil-recovery, construction and building materials, and drug delivery. Recently, it has shown great potential in issue engineering applications and a variety of modification methods have been employed to modify xanthan gum as polysaccharide for this purpose. However, xanthan gum-based biomaterials need further modification for several targeted applications due to some disadvantages (e.g., processing and mechanical performance of xanthan gum), where modified xanthan gum will be well suited for tissue engineering products. In this review, the current scenario of the use of xanthan gum for various tissue engineering applications, including its origin, structure, properties, modification, and processing for the preparation of the hydrogels and/or the scaffolds is precisely reviewed.
