Kalenichenko D, Kriukova I, Karaulov A, Nabiev I, Sukhanova A. Cytotoxic Effects of Doxorubicin on Cancer Cells and Macrophages Depend Differently on the Microcarrier Structure. Pharmaceutics 2024; 16:785. [PMID: 38931906 PMCID: PMC11207472 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics16060785] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Microparticles are versatile carriers for controlled drug delivery in personalized, targeted therapy of various diseases, including cancer. The tumor microenvironment contains different infiltrating cells, including immune cells, which can affect the efficacy of antitumor drugs. Here, prototype microparticle-based systems for the delivery of the antitumor drug doxorubicin (DOX) were developed, and their cytotoxic effects on human epidermoid carcinoma cells and macrophages derived from human leukemia monocytic cells were compared in vitro. DOX-containing calcium carbonate microparticles with or without a protective polyelectrolyte shell and polyelectrolyte microcapsules of about 2.4-2.5 μm in size were obtained through coprecipitation and spontaneous loading. All the microstructures exhibited a prolonged release of DOX. An estimation of the cytotoxicity of the DOX-containing microstructures showed that the encapsulation of DOX decreased its toxicity to macrophages and delayed the cytotoxic effect against tumor cells. The DOX-containing calcium carbonate microparticles with a protective polyelectrolyte shell were more toxic to the cancer cells than DOX-containing polyelectrolyte microcapsules, whereas, for the macrophages, the microcapsules were most toxic. It is concluded that DOX-containing core/shell microparticles with an eight-layer polyelectrolyte shell are optimal drug microcarriers due to their low toxicity to immune cells, even upon prolonged incubation, and strong delayed cytotoxicity against tumor cells.

Abstract
Magnetic hyperthermia utilizing magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and an alternating magnetic field (AMF) represents a promising approach in the field of cancer treatment. Active targeting has emerged as a valuable strategy to enhance the effectiveness and specificity of drug delivery. Active targeting utilizes specific biomarkers that are predominantly found in abundance on cancer cells while being minimally expressed on healthy cells. Current comprehensive review provides an overview of several cancer-specific biomarkers, including human epidermal growth factor, transferrin, folate, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone, integrin, cluster of differentiation (CD) receptors such as CD90, CD95, CD133, CD20, and CD44 also CXCR4 and vascular endothelial growth factor, these biomarkers bind to ligands present on the surface of MNPs, enabling precise targeting. Additionally, this review touches various combination therapies employed to combat cancer. Magnetic hyperthermia synergistically enhances the efficacy of conventional cancer treatments such as targeted chemotherapy, radiation therapy, gene therapy, and immunotherapy.

Abstract
To overcome the limitations associated with the targeting abilities of nanotherapeutics and drug loading capacity of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), the present study relies on the combination of MSCs tumor tropism with the controlled release function of nano-based drug delivery platforms to achieve tumor-specific accumulation of chemotherapeutics with minimal off-target effects. 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-containing ceria (CeNPs) coated calcium carbonate nanoparticles (CaNPs) were functionalized with folinic acid (FA) to develop drug-containing nanocomposites (Ca.FU.Ce.FA NCs). NCs were then conjugated with graphene oxide (GO) and decorated with silver nanoparticles (Ag°NPs) to form FU.FA@NS, a rationally designed drug delivery system with O2 generation capacity that alleviates tumor hypoxia for improved photodynamic therapy. Engineering of MSCs with FU.FA@NSs provided successful loading and long-term retention of therapeutics on the surface membrane with minimal changes to the functional properties of MSCs. Co-culturing of FU.FA@NS.MSCs with CT26 cells upon UVA exposure revealed enhanced apoptosis in tumor cells through ROS-mediated mitochondrial pathway. FU.FA@NSs released from MSCs were effectively taken up by CT26 cells via a clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathway and distributed their drug depots in a pH, H2O2, and UVA-stimulated fashion. Therefore, the cell-based biomimetic drug delivery platform formulated in the current study could be considered a promising strategy for targeted chemo-photodynamic therapy of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Progressive aging harms bone tissue structure and function and, thus, requires effective therapies focusing on permanent tissue regeneration rather than partial cure, beginning with regenerative medicine. Due to advances in tissue engineering, stimulating osteogenesis with biomimetic nanoparticles to create a regenerative niche has gained attention for its efficacy and cost-effectiveness. In particular, hydroxyapatite (HAP, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) has gained significant interest in orthopedic applications as a major inorganic mineral of native bone. Recently, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have also been noted for their multifunctional potential for hyperthermia, MRI contrast agents, drug delivery, and mechanosensitive receptor manipulation to induce cell differentiation, etc. Thus, the present study synthesizes HAP-decorated MNPs (MHAP NPs) via the wet chemical co-precipitation method. Synthesized MHAP NPs were evaluated against the preosteoblast MC3T3-E1 cells towards concentration-dependent cytotoxicity, proliferation, morphology staining, ROS generation, and osteogenic differentiation. The result evidenced that MHAP NPs concentration up to 10 µg/mL was non-toxic even with the time-dependent proliferation studies. As nanoparticle concentration increased, FACS apoptosis assay and ROS data showed a significant rise in apoptosis and ROS generation. The MC3T3-E1 cells cocultured with 5 µg/mL MHAP NPs showed significant osteogenic differentiation potential. Thus, MHAP NPs synthesized with simple wet chemistry could be employed in bone regenerative therapy.

Abstract
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is an important inorganic mineral in biological and geological systems. Traditionally, it is widely used in plastics, papermaking, ink, building materials, textiles, cosmetics, and food. Over the last decade, there has been rapid development in the controlled synthesis and surface modification of CaCO3, the stabilization of amorphous CaCO3 (ACC), and CaCO3-based nanostructured materials. In this review, the controlled synthesis of CaCO3 is first examined, including Ca2+-CO32- systems, solid-liquid-gas carbonation, water-in-oil reverse emulsions, and biomineralization. Advancing insights into the nucleation and crystallization of CaCO3 have led to the development of efficient routes towards the controlled synthesis of CaCO3 with specific sizes, morphologies, and polymorphs. Recently-developed surface modification methods of CaCO3 include organic and inorganic modifications, as well as intensified surface reactions. The resultant CaCO3 can then be further engineered via template-induced biomineralization and layer-by-layer assembly into porous, hollow, or core-shell organic-inorganic nanocomposites. The introduction of CaCO3 into nanostructured materials has led to a significant improvement in the mechanical, optical, magnetic, and catalytic properties of such materials, with the resultant CaCO3-based nanostructured materials showing great potential for use in biomaterials and biomedicine, environmental remediation, and energy production and storage. The influences that the preparation conditions and additives have on ACC preparation and stabilization are also discussed. Studies indicate that ACC can be used to construct environmentally-friendly hybrid films, supramolecular hydrogels, and drug vehicles. Finally, the existing challenges and future directions of the controlled synthesis and functionalization of CaCO3 and its expanding applications are highlighted.

Abstract
The recent successful application of lipid-based nanoparticles as delivery vehicles in COVID-19 vaccines demonstrated the superior potential of nanoparticle-based technology for targeted drug delivery in biomedicine. Among novel, rapidly advancing delivery platforms, the inorganic nano/microparticles gradually reach new heights and attract well-deserved attention among scientists and clinicians. Calcium carbonate in its vaterite form is used as a biocompatible carrier for a progressively increasing number of biomedical applications. Its growing popularity is conferred by beneficial porosity of particles, high mechanical stability, biodegradability under certain physiological conditions, ability to provide a continuous steady release of bioactives, preferential safety profile, and low cost, which make calcium carbonate a suitable entity of highly efficacious formulations for controlled drug delivery and release. The focal point of the current review is the success of the recent vaterite applications in the delivery of various diagnostics and therapeutic drugs. The manuscript highlights the nuances of drug loading in vaterite particles, connecting it with particle morphology, size, and charge of the loaded molecules, payload concentration, mono- or multiple drug loading. The manuscript also depicts recent successful methods of increasing the loading capacity developed for vaterite carriers. In addition, the review describes the various administration routes for vaterite particles with bioactive payloads, which were reported in recent years. Special attention is given to the multi-drug-loaded vaterite particles ("molecular cocktails") and reports on their successful delivery in vitro and in vivo.

Efficacy of Crizotinib Combined with Chemotherapy in Treating Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer and Effect on Patients’ Quality of Life and Adverse Reaction Rate. JOURNAL OF HEALTHCARE ENGINEERING 2022; 2022:7898737. [PMID: 35310186 PMCID: PMC8930210 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7898737] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2021] [Revised: 12/24/2021] [Accepted: 01/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Purpose. To explore the efficacy of crizotinib combined with chemotherapy in treating advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its effect on patients’ quality of life (QOL) and adverse reaction rate (ARR). Methods. 90 advanced NSCLC patients admitted to our hospital (from 01, 2019 to 01, 2020) were chosen as the research objects and randomly split into the control group (CG) and experimental group (EG) by flipping a coin, with 45 cases each. Chemotherapy was performed to CG, and the crizotinib treatment was introduced to EG on this basis, so as to compare their clinical efficacy, ARR and 3-year survival rate, and QOL before and after intervention by the Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 (GQOLI-74). Results. Compared with CG, EG after treatment obtained obviously higher total clinical effective rate (
< 0.001), lower total ARR (
< 0.05), higher GQOLI-74 scores (
< 0.001), and higher 3-year survival rate (
< 0.05). Conclusion. Combining crizotinib with chemotherapy to advanced NSCLC patients can effectively improve the patients’ level of quality of life, prolong the long-term survival rate, and present a better effect than single chemotherapy. Further study is conducive to establishing a better treatment scheme for advanced NSCLC patients.

Abstract
To develop materials for drug delivery and tissue engineering and to study their efficiency with respect to ossification, it is necessary to apply physicochemical and biological analyses. The major challenge is labor-intensive data mining during synthesis and the reproducibility of the obtained data. In this work, we investigated the influence of time and temperature on the reaction yield, the reaction rate, and the size, shape, and phase of the obtained product in the completely controllable synthesis of calcium carbonate. We show that calcium carbonate particles can be synthesized in large quantities, i.e., in gram quantities, which is a substantial advantage over previously reported synthesis methods. We demonstrated that the presence of vaterite particles can dramatically stimulate hydroxyapatite (HA) production by providing the continued release of the main HA component - calcium ions - depending on the following particle parameters: size, shape, and phase. To understand the key parameters influencing the efficiency of HA production by cells, we created a predictive model by means of principal component analysis. We found that smaller particles in the vaterite state are best suited for HA growth (HA growth was 8 times greater than that in the control). We also found that the reported dependence of cell adhesion on colloidal particles can be extended to other types of particles that contain calcium ions.

Abstract
Combining both device and particle designs are the essential concepts to be considered in magnetophoretic system development. Researcher efforts are often dedicated to only one of these design aspects and neglecting the interplay between them. Herein, to bring out importance of the idea of integration between device and particle, we reviewed the working principle of magnetophoretic system (includes both device and particle design concepts). Since, the magnetophoretic force is influenced by both field gradient and magnetization volume, hence, accurate prediction of the magnetophoretic force is relying on the availability of information on both parameters. In device design, we focus on the different strategies used to create localized high-field gradient. For particle design, we emphasize on the scaling between hydrodynamic size and magnetization volume. Moreover, we also briefly discussed the importance of magnetoshape anisotropy related to particle design aspect of magnetophoretic systems. Next, we illustrated the need for integration between device and particle design using microscale applications of magnetophoretic systems, include magnetic tweezers and microfluidic systems, as our working example. On the basis of our discussion, we highlighted several promising examples of microscale magnetophoretic systems which greatly utilized the interplay between device and particle design. Further, we concluded the review with several factors that possibly resulted in the lack of research efforts related to device and particle design integration.

Abstract
Using yeast as organic template and PDDA/PSS with opposite charge as polyelectrolyte, CaCO3 was deposited on yeast cells by Layer-by-Layer self-assembly method, and then porous calcium carbonate hybrid microspheres (CaCO3-HMPs) were prepared by calcination. The CaCO3-HMPs were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM and TG. It was found that the prepared CaCO3-HMPs were nearly spherical, with visible pores on the surface, small particle size uniformity (d = 3 μ m) and good dispersion. Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) was used as the model drug to study drug loading and release properties of CaCO3-HMPs. Then, the drug loading, DOX release under different pH conditions, and the degradation of CaCO3-HMPs under different pH conditions were investigated. The drug release test results showed that the DOX-loaded microspheres released more drugs (99 %) at pH = 4.8 than pH = 7. It indicated that the CaCO3-HMPs were pH sensitive. The cytotoxicity of DOX-loaded microspheres was also studied. It was found that CaCO3-HMPs had good biocompatibility. In addition, compared with DOX group, cytotoxicity test results showed that the DOX-loaded microspheres had the same efficacy but sustained drug release for up to 120 h. Therefore, the CaCO3-HMP microspheres have good application prospects as anticancer drug carriers.

Abstract
In biomineralization, organisms have the abilities to produce biominerals with superior properties. One of the most attractive features of biominerals is the presence of the proteins consisting of different contents of amino acids in crystals. In the present work, L-phenylalanine (Phe) was used as an additive for the controllable crystallization of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). The obtained CaCO3 crystals were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), elemental analysis and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The experimental results suggest that single calcite crystals are formed at low Phe concentrations. High concentrations of Phe inhibit the nucleation and growth of calcite, and promote the formation of vaterite crystals with solid or hollow structures. The morphology and crystal form of CaCO3 are also significantly affected by the flow rate of CO2. After that, a possible mechanism (competition mechanism) action of Phe in the formation of CaCO3 is proposed. Finally, the effects of temperature on the formation of vaterite were determined to explore the growth mechanism of hexagonal vaterite. The work of controlling the preparation of CaCO3 crystals in the presence of Phe will help us to imitate and learn nature, and bring new insights into understanding bionics. Meanwhile, it provides a new method for the synthesis of CaCO3 biomaterials with different crystal forms and morphologies.

Precipitation and Transformation of Vaterite Calcium Carbonate in the Presence of Some Organic Solvents. MATERIALS 2020; 13:ma13122742. [PMID: 32560368 PMCID: PMC7344821 DOI: 10.3390/ma13122742] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2020] [Revised: 06/05/2020] [Accepted: 06/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
In this paper, the production of CaCO3 particles via the carbonation route in the reaction of CaCl2 and CO2, using NH3 as a promoter of CO2 absorption, was studied. The solvents used as the reaction media for CaCO3 precipitation were aqueous solutions of methanol, isopropanol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), in a concentration range of 0–20% (v/v). It was found that the presence of an organic additive influenced the precipitation rate, the content of vaterite in the obtained product, the morphology and the size of the precipitated CaCO3 particles, as well as the rate of its transformation into calcite. The presence of all added organic solvents reduced the vaterite concentration in the produced CaCO3 both at the end of the reaction and after incubation in the reaction medium for 1 h. However, the transformation of vaterite particles into calcite in the tested solutions was slower when the 4 h and 24 h procedures were compared. The interactions of solvents with calcite and vaterite were compared using HPLC tests. DMSO molecules interacted with vaterite particles the most strongly, while the interaction of isopropanol with this polymorph was the weakest. The opposite effect was observed for interactions with calcite particles, and the affinity decreased in the series: isopropanol, methanol, DMSO.
