Abstract
Chemotherapy is widely recognized as an effective approach for treating cancer due to its ability to eliminate cancer cells using chemotherapeutic drugs. However, traditional chemotherapy suffers from various drawbacks, including limited solubility and stability of drugs, severe side effects, low bioavailability, drug resistance, and challenges in tracking treatment efficacy. These limitations greatly hinder its widespread clinical application. In contrast, supramolecular chemotherapy, which relies on host-guest interactions, presents a promising alternative by offering highly efficient and minimally toxic anticancer drug delivery. In this review, an overview of recent advancements in supramolecular chemotherapy based on host-guest interactions is provided. The significant role it plays in guiding cancer therapy is emphasized. Drawing on a wealth of cutting-edge research, herein, a timely and valuable resource for individuals interested in the field of supramolecular chemotherapy or cancer therapy, is presented. Furthermore, this review contributes to the progression of the field of supramolecular chemotherapy toward clinical application.

Abstract
The current work aimed to enhance the oral bioavailability of water-insoluble drug Artemisinin (ART) by the inclusion of ART with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and then loaded with porous starch (PS). The preparation conditions of ART HP-β-CD inclusion complex loaded with PS (AHPS) were optimized according to drug loading (DL) and entrapment efficiency (EE). The properties of AHPS were characterized by optical and thermodynamic methods. ART was linked by hydrogen bond to HP-β-CD to form hydrophilic supramolecules, which are loaded into PS under the action of hydrogen bond. The maximum DL and EE of AHPS were about 16.51% and 67.26%, respectively. Then we investigated the physicochemical properties and antimalarial activity of AHPS. The solubility and bioavailability of AHPS at 48 h were higher than ART and market ART piperaquine tablets (APT), and showed better antimalarial activity in vitro and vivo. It provides a new idea for the development and application of fat-soluble drug.

Abstract
Artemisinin (Art) is a natural sesquiterpene lactone that is claimed to exhibit various bioactivities. The poor solubility of Art in both water and oil hinders its application in formulations intended for oral administration. In this study, we investigated the potential of forming a host-guest complex between Art and succinic acid modified cyclodextrin (SACD) to improve its solubility characteristics. Art-SACD inclusion complexes (2:1 M ratio) were successfully formed in water, which was attributed to the relatively large cavity size of SACD, as well as the intermolecular interactions between the Art and succinic acid branches in the cavity. The thermal stability of the Art was retained after incorporation into the Art-SACD complexes, which may be useful for applications such as pasteurization or cooking. The encapsulated Art showed antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Such encapsulation technology allows Art to be introduced into oral delivery systems in a bioactive form.

Abstract
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one specific kind of the cannabinoid in Cannabis sativa L with a wide range of pharmacological activities. However, the poor water solubility and specificity of CBD limits its application in pharmaceutical field. For solving these problems, in this work, we successfully prepared a targeted carrier by grafting biotin (BIO) onto ethylenediamine-β-Cyclodextrin (EN-CD) in a single step to generate a functionalized supramolecule, named BIO-CD. Subsequently, an amantadine-conjugated cannabinoids (AD-CBD) was prepared and self-assembled with the BIO-CD. A series of methods were used to characterize the inclusion behavior and physicochemical properties of AD-CBD and BIO-CD. The results showed that AD-CBD entered the cavity of BIO-CD and formed a 1:1 host-guest inclusion complex. MTT assay and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) revealed that the targeting effect and anticancer activity of AD-CBD/BIO-CD inclusion complex against three human cancer cell lines were higher than BIO-CD, AD-CBD and free CBD. Moreover, the inclusion complex could release drugs under weakly acidic conditions. These results demonstrated that AD-CBD/BIO-CD inclusion complex possess excellent targeted and anticancer activity, which is hopeful to be applied in clinic as a new therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has emerged to be a significant cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Artesunate (ART) extracted from Chinese herb Artemisia annua L, has been proven to possess desirable anti-cancer efficacy, especially for the metastatic NSCLC treatment. Moreover, the poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microsphere has been considered to be a potential pulmonary delivery system for the sustained drug release to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of lung cancer. Herein, the ART-loaded porous PLGA microsphere was prepared through the emulsion solvent evaporation approach. The microsphere was demonstrated to possess highly porous structure and ideal aerodynamic diameter for the pulmonary administration. Meanwhile, sustained ART release was obtained from the porous microsphere within 8 days. The release solution collected from the microsphere could be effectively uptake by the cells and further induce the cell apoptosis and the cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase to execute the anti-proliferative effect, using human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 as a model. Additionally, strong inhibitory effect on the cell migration and invasion could be obtained after the treatment with release solution. Taken together, our results demonstrated that the ART-loaded PLGA porous microsphere could achieve excellent anti-cancer efficacy, providing a potential approach for the NSCLC treatment via the pulmonary administration.

Abstract
A simple, rapid and cost-effective reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method was developed for the quantification of artesunate. C18 Promosil (ODS, 150 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) column was used as stationary phase to separate the drug. Mobile phase comprised of ethanol: water (65:35) having pH 4.5 was run isocratically at a flow rate of 1 mL/min at 27°C. The method was validated according to ICH guidelines for linearity, precision, accuracy, robustness, specificity, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ). The method was found accurate, precise and robust with an average retention time of 4.509 min and 0.5357 %RSD. Good linearity was observed in the concentration range of 2-10 mg/ml with regression coefficient R2 value of 0.9995 and slope value of 369,928. Conclusively, as per ICH norms, the developed method was successfully validated and used for the quantification of artesunate in fast dissolving tablets (FDTs).

Abstract
As a therapeutic anticancer agent, the clinical use of paclitaxel (PTX) is limited by its poor water solubility and serious adverse side effects. The targeted-specific intracellular delivery of an anticancer drug as a new therapeutic modality is promising for cancer treatment. The anticancer activity of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) with low toxicity and excellent activity has attracted increasing attention for use in biomedical intervention in recent years. In this study, β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-folate (FA)-modified selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) loaded with paclitaxel (PTX) (Se@β-CD-FA@PTX) were successfully fabricated through a layer-by-layer method. The nanosystem is able to enter cancer cells through FA receptor-mediated endocytosis to achieve targeted-specific intracellular delivery. Se@β-CD-FA@PTX was found to increase the selectivity between normal and cancer cells. The viability in MCF-7 cells was remarkably lower than in MCF 10A cells, which may promote the specific targeted delivery of Se@β-CD-FA@PTX into MCF-7 cells. Moreover, Se@β-CD-FA@PTX was found to enhance the cytotoxic effect on MCF-7 cells via the induction of apoptosis activation of ROS-mediated p53 and AKT signaling pathways. The results demonstrate that Se@β-CD-FA@PTX nanoparticles provide a strategy for the design of cancer-targeted nanosystems for use in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins, one of safe excipients, are able to form host-guest complexes with fitted molecules given the unique nature imparted by their structure in result of a number of pharmaceutical applications. On the other hand, targeted or responsive materials are appealing therapeutic platforms for the development of next-generation precision medications. Meanwhile, cyclodextrin-based polymers or assemblies can condense DNA and RNA in result to be used as genetic therapeutic agents. Armed with a better understanding of various pharmaceutical mechanisms, especially for cancer treatment, researchers have made lots of works about cyclodextrin-based drug delivery systems in materials chemistry and pharmaceutical science. This Review highlights recent advances in cyclodextrin-based delivery systems for cancer treatment capable of targeting or responding to the physiological environment. Key design principles, challenges and future directions, including clinical translation, of cyclodextrin-based delivery systems are also discussed.
