Abstract
In this study, we designed and developed systems composed of poly(ethylene-oxide)-b-poly(ε-caprolactone) block copolymers of different molecular weights and compositions, non-ionic surfactant, and cyclodextrins. The innovation of this study lies in the combination of these diverse biomaterials to create biomimetic and bioinspired drug delivery supramolecular structures. The systems were formed by the thin-film hydration method. Extensive physicochemical and morphological characterization was conducted using differential scanning calorimetry, light scattering techniques, microcalorimetry analysis, high-resolution ultrasound spectroscopy, surface tension measurements, fluorescence spectroscopy, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy images, and in vitro cytotoxicity evaluation. These innovative hybrid nanoparticles were found to be attractive candidates as drug delivery systems with unique properties by encompassing the physicochemical and thermotropic properties of both classes of materials. Subsequently, Ropinirole hydrochloride was used as a model drug for the purpose of this study. These systems showed a high RH content (%), and in vitro diffusion experiments revealed that more than 90% of the loading dose was released under pH and temperature conditions that simulate the conditions of the nasal cavity. Promising drug release performance was observed with all tested formulations, worth further investigation to explore both ex vivo permeation through the nasal mucosa and in vivo performance in an experimental animal model.

Abstract
The complicated stepwise lysosomal degradation process known as autophagy is in charge of destroying and eliminating damaged organelles and defective cytoplasmic components. This mechanism promotes metabolic adaptability and nutrition recycling. Autophagy functions as a quality control mechanism in cells that support homeostasis and redox balance under normal circumstances. However, the role of autophagy in cancer is controversial because, mostly depending on the stage of the tumor, it may either suppress or support the disease. While autophagy delays the onset of tumors and slows the dissemination of cancer in the early stages of tumorigenesis, numerous studies demonstrate that autophagy promotes the development and spread of tumors as well as the evolution and development of resistance to several anticancer drugs in advanced cancer stages. In this Review, we primarily emphasize the therapeutic role of autophagy inhibition in improving the treatment of multiple cancers and give a broad overview of how its inhibition modulates cancer responses. There have been various attempts to inhibit autophagy, including the use of autophagy inhibitor drugs, gene silencing therapy (RNA interference), and nanoparticles. In this Review, all these topics are thoroughly covered and illustrated by recent studies and field investigations.

Abstract
Sodium Sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD) is a derivative of β-cyclodextrin, characterized by its stereo structure, which closely resembles a truncated cone with a hydrophobic internal cavity. The solubility of insoluble substances within the hydrophobic cavity is significantly enhanced, reducing contact between the guest and the environment. Consequently, SBE-β-CD is frequently employed as a co-solvent and stabilizer. As the research progresses, it has been observed that the inclusion of SBE-β-CD is reversible and competitive. Besides, some inclusion complexes undergo distinct physicochemical property alterations compared to the guests. Additionally, certain guests exhibit varying inclusions with SBE-β-CD at different concentrations. These features have contributed to the expanding applications. SBE-β-CD finds widespread application in pharmaceutics as a protective agent and pKa regulator, in pharmaceutical analysis as a chiral substance separator, and in biomedical engineering for encapsulating dyes and modifying sensors. The article will elaborate in detail on the physicochemical properties of SBE-β-CD, encapsulation principles, and factors influencing the formation of inclusion complexes. Furthermore, the review focuses on the application of SBE-β-CD through encapsulation in pharmaceutics, pharmaceutical analysis, and biomedical engineering. Finally, the prospects and potential applications of SBE-β-CD are discussed.

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.

Multifunctionality of cyclodextrin-based polymeric nanoparticulate delivery systems for chemotherapeutics, combination therapy, and theranostics. Int J Pharm 2024; 654:123976.

Abstract
As cancer being the most difficult disease to treat, different kinds of medications and therapeutic approaches have been prominently developed by scientists. For certain families of drugs, such as immuno-therapeutics or antibody-drug conjugates, efficient delivery systems are required during administration to protect the drugs from chemical degradation or biological inactivation. Delivery systems with the ability to carry different therapeutics or diagnostic agents or both, hold promising potential to tackle the abnormalities behind cancer. In this context, this review provides updated insights on how cyclodextrin-based polymeric nanosystems have become an effective treatment approach against cancer. Cyclodextrins (CDs) are natural oligosaccharides that are famously exploited in pharmaceutical research due to their exceptional quality of entrapping water-insoluble molecules inside their hydrophobic core and providing enhanced solubility with the help of their hydrophilic exterior. Combining the properties of CDs with polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs) brings out excellent versatile and tunable profiles, thanks to the submicron-sized PNPs. By introducing the significance of CD as a delivery system, a collective discussion on different binding approaches and release mechanisms of CD-drug complexation, followed by their characterization studies has been done in this review. Further, in light of recent studies, the article majorly focuses on conveying how promoting CD to a polymeric and nanoscale elevates the multifunctional advantages against cancer that can be successfully applied in combination therapy and theranostics. Moreover, CD-based delivery systems including CALAA-01, CRLX101, and CRLX301, have demonstrated improved tumor targeting, reduced side effects, and prolonged drug release in preclinical studies and clinical trials.

Abstract
Efficient production of cyclodextrins (CDs) has always been challenging. CDs are primarily produced from starch via cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase), which acts on α-1,4 glucosidic bonds; however, α-1,6 glucosidic bonds in starch suppress the enzymatic production of CDs. In this study, a glycogen debranching enzyme from Saccharolobus solfataricus STB09 (SsGDE) was utilized to promote the production of β-CD by hydrolyzing α-1,6 glucosidic bonds. The addition of SsGDE (750 U/g of starch) at the liquefaction stage remarkably improved the β-CD yield, with a 43.9% increase. Further mechanism exploration revealed that SsGDE addition could hydrolyze specific branches with less generation of byproducts, thereby promoting CD production. The chain segments of a degree of polymerization ≥13 produced by SsGDE debranching could also be utilized by β-CGTase to convert into CDs. Overall, these findings proposed a new approach of combining SsGDE with β-CGTase to enhance the CD yield.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal cancers are characterized by a frequent incidence, a high number of associated deaths, and a tremendous burden on the medical system and patients worldwide. As conventional chemotherapeutic drugs face numerous limitations, researchers started to investigate better alternatives for extending drug efficacy and limiting adverse effects. A remarkably increasing interest has been addressed to chitosan and cyclodextrins, two highly versatile natural carbohydrate materials endowed with unique physicochemical properties. In this respect, numerous studies reported on fabricating various chitosan and cyclodextrin-based formulations that enabled prolonged circulation times, improved cellular internalization of carried drugs, preferential uptake by the targeted cells, reduced side effects, enhanced apoptosis rates, and increased tumor suppression rates. Therefore, this paper aims to briefly present the advantageous properties of these oligo- and polysaccharides for designing drug delivery systems, further focusing the discussion on nanocarrier systems based on chitosan/cyclodextrins for treating different gastrointestinal cancers. Specifically, there are reviewed studies describing promising solutions for colorectal, liver, gastric, pancreatic, and other types of cancers of the digestive system towards creating an updated framework of what concerns anticancer chitosan/cyclodextrin-based drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising cancer treatment that kills cancer cells selectively by stimulating reactive oxygen species generation with photosensitizers exposed to specific light wavelengths. 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a widely used photosensitizer. However, its limited tumour penetration and targeting reduce its therapeutic efficacy. Scholars have investigated nano-delivery techniques to improve 5-ALA administration and efficacy in PDT. This review summarises recent advances in biological host biosynthetic pathways and regulatory mechanisms for 5-ALA production. The review also highlights the potential therapeutic efficacy of various 5-ALA nano-delivery modalities, such as nanoparticles, liposomes, and gels, in treating various cancers. Although promising, 5-ALA nano-delivery methods face challenges that could impair targeting and efficacy. To determine their safety and biocompatibility, extensive preclinical and clinical studies are required. This study highlights the potential of 5-ALA-NDSs to improve PDT for cancer treatment, as well as the need for additional research to overcome barriers and improve medical outcomes.

Abstract
The incidence rate of melanoma is dramatically increasing worldwide, raising it to the fifth most common cancer in men and the sixth in women currently. Resistance generally occurs to the agents used in chemotherapy; besides their high toxicity destroys the normal cells. This study reviewed a detailed summary of the structure, advantages, and disadvantages of nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems in the treatment of melanoma, as well as some nanocarrier applications in animal models or clinical studies. Respective databases were searched for the target keywords and 93 articles were reviewed and discussed. A close study of the liposomes, niosomes, transferosomes, ethosomes, transethosomes, cubosomes, dendrimers, cyclodextrins, solid lipid nanoparticles, and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was conducted. It was found that these nanocarriers could inhibit metastasis and migration of melanoma cells and decrease cell viability. Conclusively, some nanocarriers like liposomes, niosomes, and transferosomes have been discussed as superior to conventional therapies for melanoma treatment.

Abstract
Over recent decades, synthetic macrocyclic compounds have attracted interest from the scientific community due to their ability to selectively and reversibly form complexes with a huge variety of guest moieties. These molecules have been studied within a wide range of sensing and other fields. Within this review, we will give an overview of the most common synthetic macrocyclic compounds including cyclodextrins, calixarenes, calixresorcinarenes, pillarenes and cucurbiturils. These species all display the ability to form a wide range of complexes. This makes these compounds suitable in the field of cancer detection since they can bind to either cancer cell surfaces or indeed to marker compounds for a wide variety of cancers. The formation of such complexes allows sensitive and selective detection and quantification of such guests. Many of these compounds also show potential for the detection and encapsulation of environmental carcinogens. Furthermore, many anti-cancer drugs, although effective in in vitro tests, are not suitable for use directly for cancer treatment due to low solubility, inherent instability in in vivo environments or an inability to be adsorbed by or transported to the required sites for treatment. The reversible encapsulation of these species in a macrocyclic compound can greatly improve their solubility, stability and transport to required sites where they can be released for maximum therapeutic effect. Within this review, we intend to present the use of these species both in cancer sensing and treatment. The various macrocyclic compound families will be described, along with brief descriptions of their synthesis and properties, with an outline of their use in cancer detection and usage as therapeutic agents. Their use in the sensing of environmental carcinogens as well as their potential utilisation in the clean-up of some of these species will also be discussed.

Functionalization of breast implants by cyclodextrin in-situ polymerization: a local drug delivery system for augmentation mammaplasty. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1254299. [PMID: 37811378 PMCID: PMC10557261 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1254299] [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: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Mammaplasty is a widely performed surgical procedure worldwide, utilized for breast reconstruction, in the context of breast cancer treatment, and aesthetic purposes. To enhance post-operative outcomes and reduce risks (hematoma with required evacuation, capsular contracture, implant-associated infection and others), the controlled release of medicaments can be achieved using drug delivery systems based on cyclodextrins (CDs). In this study, our objective was to functionalize commercially available silicone breast implants with smooth and textured surfaces through in-situ polymerization of two CDs: β-CD/citric acid and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-CD/citric acid. This functionalization serves as a local drug delivery system for the controlled release of therapeutic molecules that potentially can be a preventive treatment for post-operative complications in mammaplasty interventions. Initially, we evaluated the pre-treatment of sample surfaces with O2 plasma, followed by chitosan grafting. Subsequently, in-situ polymerization using both types of CDs was performed on implants. The results demonstrated that the proposed pre-treatment significantly increased the polymerization yield. The functionalized samples were characterized using microscopic and physicochemical techniques. To evaluate the efficacy of the proposed system for controlled drug delivery in augmentation mammaplasty, three different molecules were utilized: pirfenidone (PFD) for capsular contracture prevention, Rose Bengal (RB) as anticancer agent, and KR-12 peptide (KR-12) to prevent bacterial infection. The release kinetics of PFD, RB, and KR-12 were analyzed using the Korsmeyer-Peppas and monolithic solution mathematical models to identify the respective delivery mechanisms. The antibacterial effect of KR-12 was assessed against Staphylococcus epidermidis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, revealing that the antibacterial rate of functionalized samples loaded with KR-12 was dependent on the diffusion coefficients. Finally, due to the immunomodulatory properties of KR-12 peptide on epithelial cells, this type of cells was employed to investigate the cytotoxicity of the functionalized samples. These assays confirmed the superior properties of functionalized samples compared to unprotected implants.

Abstract
Herein, hyaluronic acid (HA) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) is used to form targeted drug delivery platform HCPC/DEX NPs with previously prepared carbon dots (CDs) as cross-linker, dexamethasone (DEX) is loaded for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment. The drug loading capacity of β-CD and M1 macrophage targeting of HA were utilized for efficient delivery of DEX to the inflammatory joints. Because of the environmental responsive degradation of HA, DEX can be released in 24 h and inhibit the inflammatory response in M1 macrophages. The drug loading of NPs is 4.79 %. Cellular uptake evaluation confirmed that NPs can specifically target to M1 macrophages via HA ligands, the uptake of M1 macrophages is 3.7 times that of normal macrophages. In vivo experiments revealed that NPs can accumulate in RA joints to alleviate inflammation and accelerate cartilage healing, the accumulation can be observed in 24 h. The cartilage thickness increased to 0.45 mm after HCPC/DEX NPs treatment, indicating its good RA therapeutic effect. Importantly, this study was the first to utilize the potential acid and reactive oxygen species responsiveness of HA to release drug and prepare M1 macrophage targeting nanodrug for RA treatment, which provides a safe and effective RA therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
This study reports the development of new pH-responsive drug delivery systems that are important for the treatment of cancer. The Mentha plant extract was obtained and then used for the biosynthesis of magnetic Ag bio nanoparticles (M-Ag bio-NPs). They were added in the formulation of hybrid hydrogel of k-carrageenan (k-Cr) and chitosan (CS) toward the synthesis of magnetic nanocomposite hydrogels. Their chemical structure and morphology were characterized by different analyses. Doxorubicin (DOX) was used as a model anticancer drug to study the targeted drug release behavior of the synthesized nanocomposite hydrogels (loading capacity: about 98 %). In vitro drug release studies showed that the release profile was noticeably controlled in a pH-dependent manner (higher drug release at pH 5). The antibacterial assessment confirmed the high antibacterial activity for the synthesized hydrogel against S. aureus (MIC values 39.06 μg/mL) and E. coli (MIC values > 19.53). In-vitro cytotoxicity results (MTT assay) demonstrated good biocompatibility (higher than 88 %) for the blank nanocomposite hydrogels, while DOX-loaded nanocomposite hydrogels showed high toxicity (about 22 % in the concentration of 20 μg/mL) against HeLa cells. The results showed that the present nanocomposite hydrogels can be suggested for potential application as an antibacterial and anticancer carrier.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are a family of macrocyclic oligosaccharides with amphiphilic properties, which can improve the stability, solubility, and bioavailability of therapeutic compounds. There has been growing interest in the advancement of efficient and reliable analytical methods that assist with elucidating CD host-guest drug complexation. In this study, we investigate the noncovalent ion complexes formed between naturally occurring dextrins (αCD, βCD, γCD, and maltohexaose) with the poorly water-soluble antimalarial drug, artemisinin, using a combination of ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS), tandem MS/MS, and theoretical modeling approaches. This study aims to determine if the drug can complex within the core dextrin cavity forming an inclusion complex or nonspecifically bind to the periphery of the dextrins. We explore the use of group I alkali earth metal additives to promote the formation of various noncovalent gas-phase ion complexes with different drug/dextrin stoichiometries (1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, and 2:1). Broad IM-MS collision cross section (CCS) mapping (n > 300) and power-law regression analysis were used to confirm the stoichiometric assignments. The 1:1 drug:αCD and drug:βCD complexes exhibited strong preferences for Li+ and Na+ charge carriers, whereas drug:γCD complexes preferred forming adducts with the larger alkali metals, K+, Rb+, and Cs+. Although the ion-measured CCS increased with cation size for the unbound artemisinin and CDs, the 1:1 drug:dextrin complexes exhibit near-identical CCS values regardless of the cation, suggesting these are inclusion complexes. Tandem MS/MS survival yield curves of the [artemisinin:βCD + X]+ ion (X = H, Li, Na, K) showed a decreased stability of the ion complex with increasing cation size. Empirical CCS measurements of the [artemisinin:βCD + Li]+ ion correlated with predicted CCS values from the low-energy theoretical structures of the drug incorporated within the βCD cavity, providing further evidence that gas-phase inclusion complexes are formed in these experiments. Taken together, this work demonstrates the utility of combining analytical information from IM-MS, MS/MS, and computational approaches in interpreting the presence of gas-phase inclusion phenomena.

Abstract
With the development of personalized medical demands for precise diagnosis, rational management and effective cancer treatment, supramolecular theranostic systems have received widespread attention due to their reversibly switchable structures, sensitive response to biological stimuli and integration ability for multiple capabilities in a single platform with a programmable fashion. Cyclodextrins (CDs), benefiting from their excellent characteristics, such as non-toxicity, easy modification, unique host-guest properties, good biocompatibility, etc., as building blocks, serve as an all-purpose strategy for the fabrication of a supramolecular cancer theranostics nanodevice that is capable of biosafety, controllability, functionality and programmability. This review focuses on the supramolecular systems of CD-bioimaging probes, CD-drugs, CD-genes, CD-proteins, CD-photosensitizers and CD-photothermal agents as well as multicomponent cooperation systems with regards to building a nanodevice with functions of diagnosis and (or) therapeutics of cancer treatment. By introducing several state-of-the-art examples, emphasis will be placed on the design of various functional modules, the supramolecular interaction strategies under the fantastic topological structures and the hidden "bridge" between their structures and therapeutic efficacy, aiming for further comprehension of the important role of a cyclodextrin-based nanoplatform in advancing supramolecular cancer theranostics.

Study of Hydroxypropyl β-Cyclodextrin and Puerarin Inclusion Complexes Encapsulated in Sodium Alginate-Grafted 2-Acrylamido-2-Methyl-1-Propane Sulfonic Acid Hydrogels for Oral Controlled Drug Delivery. Gels 2023; 9:gels9030246. [PMID: 36975695 PMCID: PMC10048200 DOI: 10.3390/gels9030246] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/18/2023] [Indexed: 03/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Puerarin has been reported to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, immunity enhancement, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, antitumor, and antimicrobial effects. However, due to its poor pharmacokinetic profile (low oral bioavailability, rapid systemic clearance, and short half-life) and physicochemical properties (e.g., low aqueous solubility and poor stability) its therapeutic efficacy is limited. The hydrophobic nature of puerarin makes it difficult to load into hydrogels. Hence, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-βCD)-puerarin inclusion complexes (PIC) were first prepared to enhance solubility and stability; then, they were incorporated into sodium alginate-grafted 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propane sulfonic acid (SA-g-AMPS) hydrogels for controlled drug release in order to increase bioavailability. The puerarin inclusion complexes and hydrogels were evaluated via FTIR, TGA, SEM, XRD, and DSC. Swelling ratio and drug release were both highest at pH 1.2 (36.38% swelling ratio and 86.17% drug release) versus pH 7.4 (27.50% swelling ratio and 73.25% drug release) after 48 h. The hydrogels exhibited high porosity (85%) and biodegradability (10% in 1 week in phosphate buffer saline). In addition, the in vitro antioxidative activity (DPPH (71%), ABTS (75%), and antibacterial activity (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) indicated the puerarin inclusion complex-loaded hydrogels had antioxidative and antibacterial capabilities. This study provides a basis for the successful encapsulation of hydrophobic drugs inside hydrogels for controlled drug release and other purposes.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are one of the most extensively studied cyclic-oligosaccharides due to their low toxicity, good biodegradability and biocompatibility, facile chemical modification, and unique inclusion capacity. However, problems such as poor pharmacokinetics, plasma membrane disruption, hemolytic effects and a lack of target specificity still exist for their applications as drug carriers. Recently, polymers have been introduced into CDs to combine the advantages of both biomaterials for the superior delivery of anticancer agents in cancer treatment. In this review, we summarize four types of CD-based polymeric carriers for the delivery of chemotherapeutics or gene agents for cancer therapy. These CD-based polymers were classified based on their structural properties. Most of the CD-based polymers were amphiphilic with the introduction of hydrophobic/hydrophilic segments and were able to form nanoassemblies. Anticancer drugs could be included in the cavity of CDs, encapsulated in the nanoparticles or conjugated on the CD-based polymers. In addition, the unique structures of CDs enable the functionalization of targeting agents and stimuli-responsive materials to realize the targeting and precise release of anticancer agents. In summary, CD-based polymers are attractive carriers for anticancer agents.

[PMID: 36835401 PMCID: PMC9964812 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24043990] [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: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Melphalan (Mel) is an antineoplastic widely used in cancer and other diseases. Its low solubility, rapid hydrolysis, and non-specificity limit its therapeutic performance. To overcome these disadvantages, Mel was included in β-cyclodextrin (βCD), which is a macromolecule that increases its aqueous solubility and stability, among other properties. Additionally, the βCD-Mel complex has been used as a substrate to deposit silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) through magnetron sputtering, forming the βCD-Mel-AgNPs crystalline system. Different techniques showed that the complex (stoichiometric ratio 1:1) has a loading capacity of 27%, an association constant of 625 M-1, and a degree of solubilization of 0.034. Added to this, Mel is partially included, exposing the NH2 and COOH groups that stabilize AgNPs in the solid state, with an average size of 15 ± 3 nm. Its dissolution results in a colloidal solution of AgNPs covered by multiple layers of the βCD-Mel complex, with a hydrodynamic diameter of 116 nm, a PDI of 0.4, and a surface charge of 19 mV. The in vitro permeability assays show that the effective permeability of Mel increased using βCD and AgNPs. This novel nanosystem based on βCD and AgNPs is a promising candidate as a Mel nanocarrier for cancer therapy.

Komiyama M. Cyclodextrins as eminent constituents in nanoarchitectonics for drug delivery systems. BEILSTEIN JOURNAL OF NANOTECHNOLOGY 2023; 14:218-232.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins have been widely employed for drug delivery systems (DDSs) in which drugs are selectively delivered to a target site in the body. Recent interest has been focused on the construction of cyclodextrin-based nanoarchitectures that show sophisticated DDS functions. These nanoarchitectures are precisely fabricated based on three important features of cyclodextrins, namely (1) the preorganized three-dimensional molecular structure of nanometer size, (2) the easy chemical modification to introduce functional groups, and (3) the formation of dynamic inclusion complexes with various guests in water. With the use of photoirradiation, drugs are released from cyclodextrin-based nanoarchitectures at designated timing. Alternatively, therapeutic nucleic acids are stably protected in the nanoarchitectures and delivered to the target site. The efficient delivery of the CRISPR-Cas9 system for gene editing was also successful. Even more complicated nanoarchitectures can be designed for sophisticated DDSs. Cyclodextrin-based nanoarchitectures are highly promising for future applications in medicine, pharmaceutics, and other relevant fields.

Optimizing Dacarbazine Therapy: Design of a Laser-Triggered Delivery System Based on β-Cyclodextrin and Plasmonic Gold Nanoparticles. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020458.

Abstract
Dacarbazine (DB) is an antineoplastic drug extensively used in cancer therapy. However, present limitations on its performance are related to its low solubility, instability, and non-specificity. To overcome these drawbacks, DB was included in β-cyclodextrin (βCD), which increased its aqueous solubility and stability. This new βCD@DB complex has been associated with plasmonic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been added in the process to increase the colloidal stability and biocompatibility. Different techniques revealed that DB allows for a dynamic inclusion into βCD, with an association constant of 80 M-1 and a degree of solubilization of 0.023, where βCD showed a loading capacity of 16%. The partial exposure of the NH2 group in the included DB allows its interaction with AuNPs, with a loading efficiency of 99%. The PEG-AuNPs-βCD@DB nanosystem exhibits an optical plasmonic absorption at 525 nm, a surface charge of -29 mV, and an average size of 12 nm. Finally, laser irradiation assays showed that DB can be released from this platform in a controlled manner over time, reaching a concentration of 56 μg/mL (43% of the initially loaded amount), which, added to the previous data, validates its potential for drug delivery applications. Therefore, the novel nanosystem based on βCD, AuNPs, and PEG is a promising candidate as a new nanocarrier for DB.

Coatings of Cyclodextrin/Citric-Acid Biopolymer as Drug Delivery Systems: A Review. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15010296.

Abstract
In the early 2000s, a method for cross-linking cyclodextrins (CDs) with citric acid (CTR) was developed. This method was nontoxic, environmentally friendly, and inexpensive compared to the others previously proposed in the literature. Since then, the CD/CTR biopolymers have been widely used as a coating on implants and other materials for biomedical applications. The present review aims to cover the chemical properties of CDs, the synthesis routes of CD/CTR, and their applications as drug-delivery systems when coated on different substrates. Likewise, the molecules released and other pharmaceutical aspects involved are addressed. Moreover, the different methods of pretreatment applied on the substrates before the in situ polymerization of CD/CTR are also reviewed as a key element in the final functionality. This process is not trivial because it depends on the surface chemistry, geometry, and physical properties of the material to be coated. The biocompatibility of the polymer was also highlighted. Finally, the mechanisms of release generated in the CD/CTR coatings were analyzed, including the mathematical model of Korsmeyer-Peppas, which has been dominantly used to explain the release kinetics of drug-delivery systems based on these biopolymers. The flexibility of CD/CTR to host a wide variety of drugs, of the in situ polymerization to integrate with diverse implantable materials, and the controllable release kinetics provide a set of advantages, thereby ensuring a wide range of future uses.

Improving Lurasidone Hydrochloride's Solubility and Stability by Higher-Order Complex Formation with Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15010232.

Abstract
The biopharmaceutical classification system groups low-solubility drugs into two groups: II and IV, with high and low permeability, respectively. Most of the new drugs developed for common pathologies present solubility issues. This is the case of lurasidone hydrochloride-a drug used for the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar depression. Likewise, the stability problems of some drugs limit the possibility of preparing them in liquid pharmaceutical forms where hydrolysis and oxidation reactions can be favored. Lurasidone hydrochloride presents the isoindole-1,3-dione ring, which is highly susceptible to alkaline hydrolysis, and the benzisothiazole ring, which is susceptible to a lesser extent to oxidation. Herein, we propose to study the increase in the solubility and stability of lurasidone hydrochloride by the formation of higher-order inclusion complexes with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin. Several stoichiometric relationships were studied at between 0.5 and 3 hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin molecules per drug molecule. The obtained products were characterized, and their solubility and stability were assessed. According to the obtained results, the formation of inclusion complexes dramatically increased the solubility of the drug, and this increased with the increase in the inclusion ratio. This was associated with the loss of crystalline state of the drug, which was in an amorphous state according to infrared spectroscopy, calorimetry, and X-ray analysis. This was also correlated with the stabilization of lurasidone by the cyclodextrin inhibiting its recrystallization. Phase solubility,1H-NMR, and docking computational characterization suggested that the main stoichiometric ratio was 1:1; however, we cannot rule out a 1:2 ratio, where a second cyclodextrin molecule could bind through the isoindole-1,3-dione ring, improving its stability as well. Finally, we can conclude that the formation of higher-order inclusion complexes of lurasidone with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin is a successful strategy to increase the solubility and stability of the drug.

Abstract
Perhalogenated boron clusters derived from B12Br122-, a superchaotropic dianion with a globular icosahedral shape, serve as inorganic cavity binders for cyclodextrins (CDs), in particular for large CDs (γ-CD and δ-CD), with high binding affinity (Ka > 106 M-1) in aqueous solution. This opens the door for applications of this anchoring moiety by linking it to organic residues, prominently fluorescent dyes. We report here the synthesis of a novel fluorescein-substituted perbrominated dodecaborate cluster by a copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne click reaction. The formation of host-guest inclusion complexes between the dodecaborate-modified fluorescein dye and CDs can be readily followed by optical titrations, which afforded a binding constant of ∼1 × 104 M-1 with γ-CD; that is, the cluster functionalization allows binding of an otherwise nonbinding dye to the macrocycle ("anchor dye"). The formation of the 1:1 host-guest inclusion complex between the dye and γ-CD occurs over a broad range of pH values, which allows its application as a sensitive reporter pair according to the indicator displacement method, e.g., for drug detection. In addition, the substituted dye shows outer-wall binding to cucurbiturils through the dodecaborate moiety, leading to the formation of aggregates and significant fluorescence quenching of the dye.

Abstract
Hypericin (HY) is a lipophilic photosensitizer (PS) extensively employed for photodynamic therapy (PDT), presenting high absorption in the visible region, chemical and photostability, as well as a good triplet quantum yield. Supramolecular complexation of photosensitizers into cyclodextrins (CD) is promising to improve their poor solubility, compromising their bioavailability and upcoming applications in PDT. This research produced an inclusion complex between HY and β-CD through the co-solvent method. HY became soluble after inclusion into β-CD cavities, besides retaining its fluorescent and singlet oxygen quantum yields (ϕf =0.115 and ϕΔ= 0.23, respectively), which are essential parameters for PDT uses and are not reported in the literature. By the theoretical analysis, since ΔG < 0, it was easy to conclude that HY inclusion into β-CD is a spontaneous process. Additionally, the complexes presented no changes in excited states after complexation. β-CDHY was 27% more phototoxic than free HY when tested in MCF7 cells using 3 J cm-2 of irradiation, indicating a better cell uptake of HY. These outcomes suggest that the inclusion complex of HY into β-CD has the potential for use in PDT.

Abstract
Introduction During the combined treatment of tumors, the non-interfering transportation of drugs with different solubilities and the controllable sequential release are the main challenges. Here, we reported a double-chamber “Dandelion” -like sequential drug delivery system to realize the sequential release of different drugs for treating malignant tumors synergistically. Methods After synthesizing mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) by template method, a hydrophilic chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX) was loaded into the channels of mesoporous silica (MSN) and locked with polydopamine (PDA) coating. Next, β-cyclodextrin (β-CDs) was decorated on PDA by Michael addition reaction, and the hydrophobic photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) was encapsulated into the hydrophobic chambers of β-CDs. Finally, AS1411 was modified on the surface of PDA and obtained DOX@MSN@PDA-β-CD/Ce6-AS1411 nanoparticles (DMPCCA) through which orthogonal loading and effective controlled release of different drugs were realized. Results Under the sequential irradiations of 808 nm and 660 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser, PDA promoted the extensive release of Ce6 firstly while playing the effect of photothermal therapy (PTT), further to achieve the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) of Ce6. Meanwhile, the rapid release of DOX loaded in MSN channels showed a time lag of about 5 h after Ce6 release, through which it maximized the chemotherapeutic effect. Besides, the present drug loading nano-platform combined passive tumor-targeting effect given by EPR and active tumor-targeting effect endowed by AS1411 realized PTT-PDT-chemotherapy triple mode synergistic combination. Conclusion We offer a general solution to address the key limitations for the delivery and sequential release of different drugs with different solubilities.

Abstract
Encompassing a group of complex and heterogeneous diseases, cancer continues to be a challenge for patients and healthcare systems worldwide. Thus, it is of vital importance to develop advanced treatment strategies that could reduce the trends of cancer-associated morbidity and mortality rates. Scientists have focused on creating performant delivery vehicles for anti-cancer agents. Among the possible materials, cyclodextrins (CDs) attracted increasing interest over the past few years, leading to the emergence of promising anti-tumor nanomedicines. Tackling their advantageous chemical structure, ease of modification, natural origin, biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, and commercial availability, researchers investigated CD-based therapeutical formulations against many types of cancer. In this respect, in this paper, we briefly present the properties of interest of CDs for designing performant nanocarriers, further reviewing some of the most recent potential applications of CD-based delivery systems in cancer management.

Abstract
Supramolecules-based drug delivery has attracted significant recent research attention as it could enhance drug solubility, retention time, targeting, and stimuli responsiveness. Among the different supramolecules and assemblies, the macrocycles and the supramolecular hydrogels are the two important categories investigated to a greater extent. Here, we provide the most recent advancements in these categories. Under macrocycles, reports on drug delivery by cyclodextrins, cucurbiturils, calixarenes/pillararenes, crown ethers and porphyrins are detailed. The second category discusses the supramolecular hydrogels of macrocycles/polymers and low molecular weight gelators. The updated information provided could be helpful to advance R & D in this vital area.

Anchoring β-CD on simvastatin-loaded rHDL for selective cholesterol crystals dissolution and enhanced anti-inflammatory effects in macrophage/foam cells. Eur J Pharm Biopharm 2022; 174:144-154.

Abstract
Macrophage/foam cells and cholesterol crystals (CCs) have been regarded as the central triggers of maladaptive inflammation in atherosclerotic plaque. Despite the tremendous progress of recombinant high-density lipoprotein (rHDL) serving for targeted drug delivery to alleviate inflammation in macrophage/foam cells, the active attempt to modulate/improve its CCs dissolution capacity remains poorly explored. The untreated CCs can seriously aggravate inflammation and threaten plaque stability. Based on the superb ability of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) to bind CCs and promote cholesterol efflux, simvastatin-loaded discoidal-rHDL (ST-d-rHDL) anchored with β-CD (βCD-ST-d-rHDL) was constructed. We verified that βCD-ST-d-rHDL specifically bound and dissolved CCs extracellularly and intracellularly. Furthermore, anchoring β-CD onto the surface of ST-d-rHDL enhanced its cholesterol removal ability in RAW 264.7 cell-derived foam cells characterized by accelerated cholesterol efflux, reduced intracellular lipid deposition, and improved cell membrane fluidity/permeability. Finally, βCD-ST-d-rHDL exerted efficient drug delivery and effective anti-inflammatory effects in macrophage/foam cells. Collectively, anchoring β-CD onto the surface of ST-d-rHDL for selective CCs dissolution, accelerated cholesterol efflux, and improved drug delivery represents an effective strategy to enhance anti-inflammatory effects for the therapy of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Nutraceuticals are bioactive or chemical compounds acclaimed for their valuable biological activities and health-promoting effects. The global community is faced with many health concerns such as cancers, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, etc. The effect of nutraceuticals is similar to pharmaceuticals, even though the term nutraceutical has no regulatory definition. The usage of nutraceuticals, to prevent and treat the aforementioned diseases, is limited by several features such as poor water solubility, low bioavailability, low stability, low permeability, low efficacy, etc. These downsides can be overcome by the application of the field of nanotechnology manipulating the properties and structures of materials at the nanometer scale. In this review, the linear and cyclic dextrin, formed during the enzymatic degradation of starch, are highlighted as highly promising nanomaterials- based drug delivery systems. The modified cyclic dextrin, cyclodextrin (CD)-based nanosponges (NSs), are well-known delivery systems of several nutraceuticals such as quercetin, curcumin, resveratrol, thyme essential oil, melatonin, and appear as a more advanced drug delivery system than modified linear dextrin. CD-based NSs prolong and control the nutraceuticals release, and display higher biocompatibility, stability, and solubility of poorly water-soluble nutraceuticals than the CD-inclusion complexes, or uncomplexed nutraceuticals. In addition, the well-explored CD-based NSs pathways, as drug delivery systems, are described. Although important progress is made in drug delivery, all the findings will serve as a source for the use of CD-based nanosystems for nutraceutical delivery. To sum up, our review introduces the extensive literature about the nutraceutical concepts, synthesis, characterization, and applications of the CD-based nano delivery systems that will further contribute to the nutraceutical delivery with more potent nanosystems based on linear dextrins.

Abstract
Carbohydrates, one of the most important compounds in living organisms, perform numerous roles, including those associated with the extracellular matrix, energy-related compounds, and information. Of these, polymeric carbohydrates are a class of substance with a long history in drug delivery that have attracted more attention in recent years. Because polymeric carbohydrates have the advantages of nontoxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability, they can be used in drug targeting, sustained drug release, immune antigens and adjuvants. In this review, various carbohydrate-based or carbohydrate-modified drug delivery systems and their applications in disease therapy have been surveyed. Specifically, this review focuses on the fundamental understanding of carbohydrate-based drug delivery systems, strategies for application, and the evaluation of biological activity. Future perspectives, including opportunities and challenges in this field, are also discussed.

Abstract
The present investigation demonstrates the development of crosslinked β-cyclodextrin nanoparticles (β-CD NPs) for enhancing the therapeutic efficacy of docetaxel (DTX) against breast cancer. Initially, a partial inclusion complex between β-CD and polypropylene glycol (PPG) was formed to induce self-assembly. This was followed by crosslinking of β-CDs using epichlorohydrin (EPI) and removal (by solubilization) of PPG to yield uniform β-CD NPs. The formed particles were used for loading DTX to form DTX β-CD NPs. The resultant DTX β-CD NPs exhibited particle size of 223.36 ± 17.73 nm with polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.13 ± 0.09 and showed entrapment efficiency of 54.53 ± 2%. Increased cell uptake (~5-fold), cytotoxicity (~3.3-fold), and apoptosis were observed in MDA-MB-231 cells when treated with DTX β-CD NPs in comparison to free DTX. Moreover, pharmacokinetic evaluation of DTX β-CD NPs revealed ~2 and ~5-fold increase in AUC0-∞ and mean residence time (MRT) of DTX when compared to Docepar®. Further, the anti-tumor activity using DMBA-induced cancer model showed that DTX β-CD NPs were capable of reducing the tumor volume to ~40%, whereas Docepar® was able to reduce tumor volume till ~80%. Finally, the toxicity evaluation of DTX β-CD NPs revealed no short-term nephrotoxicity and was confirmed by estimating the levels of biomarkers and histopathology of the organs. Thus, the proposed formulation strategy can yield uniformly formed β-CD NPs which can be effectively utilized for improving the therapeutic efficacy of DTX.

Abstract
In drug delivery, one widely used way of overcoming the biopharmaceutical problems present in several active pharmaceutical ingredients, such as poor aqueous solubility, early instability, and low bioavailability, is the formation of inclusion compounds with cyclodextrins (CD). In recent years, the use of CD derivatives in combination with nanomaterials has shown to be a promising strategy for formulating new, optimized systems. The goals of this review are to give in-depth knowledge and critical appraisal of the main CD-modified or CD-based nanomaterials for drug delivery, such as lipid-based nanocarriers, natural and synthetic polymeric nanocarriers, nanosponges, graphene derivatives, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, plasmonic and magnetic nanoparticles, quantum dots and other miscellaneous systems such as nanovalves, metal-organic frameworks, Janus nanoparticles, and nanofibers. Special attention is given to nanosystems that achieve controlled drug release and increase their bioavailability during in vivo studies.

Abstract
The controlled release of guest molecules from cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complexes is very important for specific industrial applications in foods, medicine, cosmetics, textiles, agriculture, environmental protection, and chemical materials. The term "controlled release" encompasses several related methods, including those referred to as immediate release, sustained release and targeted release. Many different CD-based controlled release systems are currently used in practical applications. CD inclusion complexes, CD coupling, supramolecular hydrogels, and supramolecular micelles are among the most common. This review systematically introduces the principles and applications of CD-based controlled release systems, providing a theoretical basis for improving the bioavailability of effective substances and broadening their range of application.

Abstract
Cancer, a disease of unknown origin is the second most common reason of death worldwide after heart attacks and therefore is a major threat to human beings. Currently, chemotherapy is the only approach for delivering anti-cancer drugs but shows severe systemic toxicities such as alopecia, loss of appetite, anemia, gastric irritation, neurotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Additionally, chemotherapeutics fails to achieve the expected therapeutic outcome due to their limited solubility, in-vivo instability and lack of targeting efficiency. Encapsulating drugs in metallic nanoparticles like gold, silver and metal oxides (magnetic) help to overcome limitations of chemotherapy and transports anti-cancer drugs effectively at the targeted site due to the advantages such as optimal size, surface morphology, higher conductivity and in-vivo stability. Moreover, these metals can be triggered externally using NIR radiations or magnetic field thereby improving the drug release kinetics. Some frequently used chemotherapeutic agents such as doxorubicin, paclitaxel, methotrexate, etc. degrade rapidly due to their hydrophobic nature and show in-vivo instability. Cyclodextrin offers structural compatibility for encapsulating such hydrophobic drugs and improves their loading capacity, solubility and stability without showing any systemic toxicities. Therefore, researchers designed cyclodextrin-complexed metallic nanoparticles as a novel platform to overcome pitfalls of conventional chemotherapy like gastric irritation, hair loss, neurotoxicity, etc. This review article provides detail insight of metallic nanocarriers containing cyclodextrin-encapsulated anti-cancer agents for effective cancer therapy. It can be concluded that this novel approach holds a great potential for clinical application in cancer diagnosis, treatment with minimum toxicity and maximum efficacy.

Abstract
This work aimed to design montmorillonite-incorporated pH-responsive and magnetic κ-carrageenan/chitosan hydrogels via a completely green route for controlled release of sunitinib anticancer drug. This was accomplished by ionic cross-linking of two biopolymers, κ-carrageenan and chitosan, in the presence of magnetic montmorillonite (mMMt) nanoplatelets. Interestingly, it was observed that the amount of mMMt affected not only the microstructure of hydrogels, but also the drug loading efficiency of nanocomposite hydrogels was noticeably increased by introducing mMMt (from 69 to 96%). The in vitro sunitinib release experiments showed that a low content of loaded sunitinib was released from all hydrogels in the buffered solution with pH 7.4. In contrast, a relatively sustained release with a high content of drug release was observed in the acidic solution of pH 5.5. During 48 h, the hydrogels nanocomposite containing a high content of mMMt showed cumulative release of 64.0 and 8.6% at pH 5.5 and 7.4, respectively. During two days, while the cumulative release of sunitinib was obtained 84.3% for the magnetic-free hydrogel, the magnetic ones showed 74.4 and 64% with the low and high contents of magnetic MMt, respectively. The developed κ-carrageenan/chitosan hydrogels with a high capacity of drug loading and subsequent pH-sensitive drug release can be considered in prolonged cancer therapy with reduced side effects.
