A self-healing crosslinked-xanthan gum/soy protein based film containing halloysite nanotube and propolis with antibacterial and antioxidant activity for wound healing. Int J Pharm 2024; 656:124073. [PMID: 38569977 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124073] [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: 01/15/2024] [Revised: 03/30/2024] [Accepted: 03/30/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
Traumatic multidrug-resistant bacterial infections are the most threat to wound healing. Lower extremity wounds under diabetic conditions display a significant delay during the healing process. To overcome these challenges, the utilization of protein-based nanocomposite dressings is crucial in implementing a successful regenerative medicine approach. These dressings hold significant potential as polymer scaffolds, allowing them to mimic the properties of the extracellular matrix (ECM). So, the objective of this study was to develop a nanocomposite film using dialdehyde-xanthan gum/soy protein isolate incorporated with propolis (PP) and halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) (DXG-SPI/PP/HNTs). In this protein-polysaccharide hybrid system, the self-healing capability was demonstrated through Schiff bonds, providing a favorable environment for cell encapsulation in the field of tissue engineering. To improve the properties of the DXG-SPI film, the incorporation of polyphenols found in PP, particularly flavonoids, is proposed. The synthesized films were subjected to investigations regarding degradation, degree of swelling, and mechanical characteristics. Additionally, halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were introduced into the DXG-SPI/PP nanocomposite films as a reinforcing filler with varying concentrations of 3 %, 5 %, and 7 % by weight. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis confirmed the proper embedding and dispersion of HNTs onto the DXG-SPI/PP nanocomposite films, leading to functional interfacial interactions. The structure and crystallinity of the synthesized nanocomposite films were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. Moreover, the developed DXG-SPI/PP/HNTs nanocomposite films significantly improved cell growth of NIH-3T3 fibroblast cells in the presence of PP and HNTs, indicating their cytocompatibility. The antibacterial activity of the nanocomposite was evaluated against Escherichia coli (E. Coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. Aureus), which are commonly associated with wound infections. Overall, our findings suggest that the synthesis of DXG-SPI/PP/HNTs nanocomposite scaffolds holds great promise as a clinically relevant biomaterial and exhibits strong potential for numerous challenging biomedical applications.

Gold nanostructure-mediated delivery of anticancer agents: Biomedical applications, reversing drug resistance, and stimuli-responsive nanocarriers. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 225:115673.

Abstract
The application of nanoarchitectures in cancer therapy seems to be beneficial for the delivery of antitumor drugs. In recent years, attempts have been made to reverse drug resistance, one of the factors threatening the lives of cancer patients worldwide. Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are metal nanostructures with a variety of advantageous properties, such as tunable size and shape, continuous release of chemicals, and simple surface modification. This review focuses on the application of GNPs for the delivery of chemotherapy agents in cancer therapy. Utilizing GNPs results in targeted delivery and increased intracellular accumulation. Besides, GNPs can provide a platform for the co-delivery of anticancer agents and genetic tools with chemotherapeutic compounds to exert a synergistic impact. Furthermore, GNPs can promote oxidative damage and apoptosis by triggering chemosensitivity. Due to their capacity for providing photothermal therapy, GNPs can enhance the cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic agents against tumor cells. The pH-, redox-, and light-responsive GNPs are beneficial for drug release at the tumor site. For the selective targeting of cancer cells, surface modification of GNPs with ligands has been performed. In addition to improving cytotoxicity, GNPs can prevent the development of drug resistance in tumor cells by facilitating prolonged release and loading low concentrations of chemotherapeutics while maintaining their high antitumor activity. As described in this study, the clinical use of chemotherapeutic drug-loaded GNPs is contingent on enhancing their biocompatibility.

Abstract
With the urgent need for bio-nanomaterials to improve the currently available cancer treatments, gold nanoparticle (GNP) hybrid nanostructures are rapidly rising as promising multimodal candidates for cancer therapy. Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have been hybridized with several nanocarriers, including liposomes and polymers, to achieve chemotherapy, photothermal therapy, radiotherapy, and imaging using a single composite. The GNP nanohybrids used for targeted chemotherapy can be designed to respond to external stimuli such as heat or internal stimuli such as intratumoral pH. Despite their promise for multimodal cancer therapy, there are currently no reviews summarizing the current status of GNP nanohybrid use for cancer theragnostics. Therefore, this review fulfills this gap in the literature by providing a critical analysis of the data available on the use of GNP nanohybrids for cancer treatment with a specific focus on synergistic approaches (i.e., triggered drug release, photothermal therapy, and radiotherapy). It also highlights some of the challenges that hinder the clinical translation of GNP hybrid nanostructures from bench to bedside. Future studies that could expedite the clinical progress of GNPs, as well as the future possibility of improving GNP nanohybrids for cancer theragnostics, are also summarized.

Abstract
With cancer research shifting focus to achieving multifunctionality in cancer treatment strategies, hybrid nanogels are making a rapid rise to the spotlight as novel, multifunctional, stimuli-responsive, and biocompatible cancer therapeutic strategies. They can possess cancer cell-specific cytotoxic effects themselves, carry drugs or enzymes that can produce cytotoxic effects, improve imaging modalities, and target tumor cells over normal cells. Hybrid nanogels bring together a wide range of desirable properties for cancer treatment such as stimuli-responsiveness, efficient loading and protection of molecules such as drugs or enzymes, and effective crossing of cellular barriers among other properties. Despite their promising abilities, hybrid nanogels are still far from being used in the clinic, and their available data remains relatively limited. However, many studies can be done to facilitate this clinical transition. This review is critically summarizing and analyzing the recent information and progress on the use of hybrid nanogels particularly inorganic nanoparticle-based and organic nanoparticle-based hybrid nanogels in the field of oncology and future directions to aid in transferring those results to the clinic. This work concludes that the future of hybrid nanogels is greatly impacted by therapeutic and non-therapeutic factors. Therapeutic factors include the lack of hemocompatibility studies, acute and chronic toxicological studies, and information on agglomeration capability and extent, tumor heterogeneity, interaction with proteins in physiological fluids, endocytosis-exocytosis, and toxicity of the nanogels' breakdown products. Non-therapeutic factors include the lack of clear regulatory guidelines and standardized assays, limitations of animal models, and difficulties associated with good manufacture practices (GMP).

Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 217:112638.

Abstract
Co-delivery of photosensitizers (PSs) and protein drugs represents great potentiality for enhancing the efficiency of synergistic cancer therapy. However, the intricate tumor-microenvironment and the lack of nanoplatforms to co-deliver both into cancer cells and activate their functions significantly hinder the clinical translation of this combined approach for cancer treatment. Herein, a chlorine e6 (Ce6)-functionalized and pH-responsive dynamically cross-linked nanogel (Ce6@NG) is fabricated by formation of benzoic imine linkages between Ce6-modified methoxy poly (ethyleneglycol)-block-poly (diethylenetriamine)-L-glutamate-Ce6 [MPEG-b-P(Deta)LG-Ce6] and terephthalaldehyde as cross-linkers for effective intracellular co-delivery of Ce6 and cytochrome c (CC), which could form a novel combination therapy system (CC/Ce6@NGs). The pH-sensitive benzoic imine bonds in the CC/Ce6@NGs endow them with excellent systemic stability under normal physiological environment while this nanosystem can be further cationized to enhance cell uptake in acidic extracellular environment. Upon cellular internalization, CC/Ce6@NGs can rapidly escape from the endo/lysosomal compartments and subsequently activate Ce6 to generate cytotoxic singlet oxygen upon laser irradiation and release of CC to induce programmed cell death by complete cleavage of benzoic imines at more acidic intracellular environments. Importantly, the catalase-like activity of CC can decompose H2O2 to produce O2 for hypoxia alleviation and improvement of the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of cancer. Moreover, this enhanced synergistic anticancer activity is confirmed both in vitro and in vivo. In view of the versatile chemical conjugation, this research offers a promising and smart nanosystem for intracellular co-delivery of PSs and therapeutic proteins.

Abstract
This work aimed to fabricate a new photoluminescent bionanogel with both targeted anticancer drug delivery and bioimaging potentials. Briefly, at first photoluminescent carbon dots (CDs) were synthesized from the low-cost and more available black pepper with traditional medicinal properties. The as-synthesized dialdehyde carboxymethyl cellulose (DCMC) was used as a safe crosslinker for gelatin crosslinking in the presence of CDs (CDs/DCMC-Gel). Eventually, the residual amine functional groups of gelatin were used for the conjugation of CDs/DCMC-Gel with folic acid (FA) ((CDs/DCMC-Gel)-FA bionanogels). All employed physicochemical characterization methods approved the (CDs/DCMC-Gel)-FA bionanogels fabrication route. SEM analysis specified the spherical morphology with a diameter of ~70-90 nm for it. Curcumin (CUR) and doxorubicin (DOX) respectively were loaded with drug entrapment efficiency of about 44.0% and 41.4%. The release rate for both drugs in acidic conditions was higher than in physiological conditions. In vitro antitumor experiments; MTT, DAPI staining, cellular uptake, and cell cycle tests showed the superior anticancer effect of the CUR@DOX@(CDs/DCMC-Gel)-FA in comparison with free CUR@DOX. Moreover, the (CDs/DCMC-Gel)-FA acted as a hopeful bio-imaging tool. Taken together, the designed (CDs/DCMC-Gel)-FA could be proposed as a promising nanosystem for efficient chemotherapy.

Abstract
Engineering a targetable nanoparticle to tumor cell is a challenge issue for clinical application. Our results demonstrated that the chemokine CXCL8 secreted by oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) could act as a chemoattractant to attract dental pulp mesenchymal stem cell (DPSC), which expressed the CXCL8 binding receptor, CXCR2, to the OSCC. Therefore, to create OSCC targetable nanoparticles, we used DPSC membranes to modify nanoparticles of metal-organic framework nanoparticles (MOFs) resulting in a novel MOF@DPSCM nanoparticle. Interestingly, results from in vitro and in vivo experiments illustrated that MOF@DPSCM possessed specificity for the OSCC, and the MOF@DPSCM carried DOX (doxorubicin), MOF-DOX@DPSCM could induce CAL27 cell death in vitro and block CAL27 tumor growth in vivo. Our data suggest that this novel MOF-DOX@DPSCM nanoparticle is a potential targetable drug delivery system for the OSCC in the future clinical application.

Abstract
Aiming to simultaneous target of methotrexate (MTX), as folate antagonist, and conferone (CON) in various cancer cells, the newly lipid/polymer hybrid nanoparticle containing an albumin targeted succinylchitosan shell and lipoid bilayer core composed of hydrogenated soy phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol was synthesized. The covalently conjugating albumin to the external surface of chitosan was accomplished using N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride and N- hydroxyl succinimide as an activating carboxylic group, and nanoliposomes were fabricated via thin film hydration-sonication method. The molecular structure of MTX@CON-targeted lipid/polymer hybrid nanoparticle (MTX@CON-TLPN) were characterized using FTIR spectroscopy, 1H NMR, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The newly nanoparticle with high encapsulation efficiency (85.12%, and 78.4%), acceptable loading capacity (9.8% and 4.6% for MTX and CON) and the stimuli responsiveness drug release behavior in simulated physiologic tumor tissue condition (pH 5.4, 40 °C) was successfully synthetized in the spherical shape with mean average size of approximately 290 nm and ζ-potential of +21 mv. The enhanced efficiency of the targeted nanoparticle was further confirmed using MTT endpoints, cell cycle modulation, apoptosis assessment, and cellular internalization assessments. Collectively, these findings establish the utility of our newly prepared nanoparticle for simultaneous delivery of multiple anti-cancer drugs.

As a first-line drug widely used in the treatment of leukemia, 6-MP has obvious effects on leukemia. However, 6-MP disadvantages such as poor solubility in water, easy binding with serum proteins, short circulation time, and large toxic and side effects greatly limit the application of 6-MP. For this reason, various 6-MP nano drug-loading systems have been designed to increase the water solubility of 6-MP, extend the circulation time, and increase the bioavailability of 6-MP to a certain extent, reducing its toxic and side effects. However, its therapeutic effect in vivo and in vitro is still far from expectations, and there is a lot of room for improvement. In order to solve the above problems encountered in the clinical application of 6-MP, we have tried two ways of polymer prodrugs and drug-loaded vesicles to achieve efficient targeted delivery and treatment of 6-MP. We designed hyaluronic acid (HA)-based gluteal-skin-responsive 6-MP polymer prodrug (HA-GS-MP) for highly effective targeted therapy of acute myeloid leukemia. Hyaluronic acid is a natural polysaccharide, which has excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, and has a good ability to actively target malignant tumor cells overexpressing the CD44 receptor. 6-MP is connected to the HA chain through a vinyl sulfide bond, which is stable under physiological conditions (no drug release), and under intracellular reducing conditions, the connection bond is broken and 6-MP is quickly released. HA-GS-MP has a simple preparation process, good water solubility, long cycle time, and strong targeting ability. This GSH-responsive CD44 targeted 6-MP polymer prodrug is expected to improve the therapeutic effect on acute myeloid leukemia cells.

Abstract
The application of gold nanoparticles in immunotherapy has emerged as one of the most effective therapeutic strategy for eradicating cancer by releasing antigens, oligonucleotides, adjuvants, immune-stimulating agents into the body. Gold nanoparticles are found to be a superior choice, for generating attack on oncogenic cells, due to their low toxicity, better target specificity, diagnostic capabilities, and enhanced cellular uptake rate. This review focuses on the efficiency of several functionalized gold nanoparticles of diverse shapes and sizes as delivery vehicles to desired target cells through effective immunotherapy, along with a brief discussion about photothermal therapy.

Synthesis of novel superdisintegrants for pharmaceutical tableting based on functionalized nanocellulose hydrogels. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 167:667-675.

Abstract
Superdisintegrants have an important function in Fast dissolving tablets (FDT). It's believed that an increase in surface to the mass (size reduction) can enhance their performance. Due to the obligation of pharmaceutical excipients being in GRAS (generally recognized as safe) list, we've devoted our research to modify one of the routinely used and important natural polymer, cellulose, as superdisintegrant. Nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) was extracted from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) via the sulfuric acid hydrolysis process. NCC derivatives have been synthesized by Itaconic acid/Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (IA/HEMA) via maleic anhydride (MA) to acquire unique swellability properties in to achieve superabsorbent cellulose-based nano hydrogel with the cross-linking system. The disintegration performance of prepared tablets was compared with tablets composed of sodium starch glycolate (SSG) and MCC as positive and negative controls. The results show that the disintegration time of tablets formulated with synthesized modified NCC (m-NCC) decreased dramatically compared to other disintegrants. The dissolution analysis showed suitable condition for complete drug release in a shorter time. The in vitro cytotoxic experiments proved the biocompatibility of newly synthesized superdisintegrant. The dissolution Analysis findings suggest that our developed novel superdisintegrant paves the way for the formulation of fast dissolving tablets containing rapidly acting medicines such as zolpidem.

Abstract
Recently, the electrospun nanofiber mats with appropriate properties for applications in the biomedical area has been more considered. In this regard, we successfully fabricated a novel antibacterial nanofiber mat (ethyl cellulose/poly lactic acid/collagen) (EC/PLA/collagen) incorporated with silver sulfadiazine (AgSD) and then analyzed with the required tests. AgSD was loaded in the developed mats with different contents (0.25%, 0.5% and 0.75%) and then electrospun to prepare nanofiber mats. To check the chemical structure of the developed mat, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was assessed. Surface morphological studies were performed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), which displayed uniform nanofiber mats without any bead formation. When the hydrophilicity was enhanced by decreasing the blending ratios of EC/PLA, the thermal stability of the nanofibers was reduced. The water contact angle (WCA) of NFs enhanced by decreasing the blending ratios of EC/PLA. The antibacterial properties showed the inhibition activity against Bacillus (9.71 ± 1.15 mm) and E. coli (12.46 ± 1.31 mm) bacteria. Besides, nanofibers have improved cell proliferation and adhesion with any cytotoxic effect on NIH 3T3 fibroblast cells. According these results, it seems that the developed mats would be effective scaffold for application in wound dressings.

Abstract
Conventional chemotherapy suffers lack of bioavailability, selectivity and multidrug resistance (MDR). Nano-sized drug delivery systems (DDS) is developing aimed to solve several limitations of conventional drug delivery systems. These systems have been offered for targeting tumor tissue due to their long circulation time and improved drug solubility, retention (EPR) effect, and enhanced permeability. So, the aim of this research was the development and design of a novel targeted nanocarrier for cancer chemotherapy. For this reason, chitosan (CS) was first modified with a chain transfer agent (CTA) to create CS-CTA macroinitiator. Then, the controlled grafting polymerization of itaconic acid (IA) and dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate quaternary ammonium alkyl halide (DMAEMAQ) monomers were occurred using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization to generate CS-g-(PIA-co-PDMAEMAQ) nanomicelles. To follow the cancer cells, fluorescein dye was entrapped into the core of nanomicelles and methotrexate (MTX) anticancer drug as a target ligand was incorporated into the cationic segment of nanomicelles. The chemical structures, biocompatibility, MTX loading capacity, in-vitro cytotoxicity effects and drug targeting ability of the developed nanomicelles were also investigated. Finally, it is expected that the nanomicelles can be used as a novel platform for targeted delivery.
