Abstract
Central nervous system (CNS) diseases, ranging from brain cancers to neurodegenerative disorders like dementia and acute conditions such as strokes, have been heavily burdening healthcare and have a direct impact on patient quality of life. A significant hurdle in developing effective treatments is the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), a highly selective barrier that prevents most drugs from reaching the brain. The tight junctions and adherens junctions between the endothelial cells and various receptors expressed on the cells make the BBB form a nonfenestrated and highly selective structure that is crucial for brain homeostasis but complicates drug delivery. Nanotechnology offers a novel pathway to circumvent this barrier, with nanoparticles engineered to ferry drugs across the BBB, protect drugs from degradation, and deliver medications to the designated area. After years of development, nanoparticle optimization, including sizes, shapes, surface modifications, and targeting ligands, can enable nanomaterials tailored to specific brain drug delivery settings. Moreover, smart nano drug delivery systems can respond to endogenous and exogenous stimuli that control subsequent drug release. Here, we address the importance of the BBB in brain disease treatment, summarize different delivery routes for brain drug delivery, discuss the cutting-edge nanotechnology-based strategies for brain drug delivery, and further offer valuable insights into how these innovations in nanoparticle technology could revolutionize the treatment of CNS diseases, presenting a promising avenue for noninvasive, targeted therapeutic interventions.

Zhang J, Wu T, Li C, Du J. A glycopolymersome strategy for 'drug-free' treatment of diabetic nephropathy. J Control Release 2024; 372:347-361. [PMID: 38908757 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2024.06.049] [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: 05/05/2024] [Revised: 06/08/2024] [Accepted: 06/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024]
Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy is a severe complication of diabetes. Treatment of diabetic nephropathy is an important challenge due to persistent hyperglycemia and elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the kidney. Herein, we designed a glycopolymersome that can treat type 2 diabetic nephropathy by effectively inhibiting hyperglycemia and ROS-associated diabetic nephropathy pathogenesis. The glycopolymersome is self-assembled from phenylboronic acid derivative-containing copolymer, poly(ethylene oxide)45-block-poly[(aspartic acid)13-stat-glucosamine24-stat-(phenylboronic acid)18-stat-(phenylboronic acid pinacol ester)3] [PEO45-b-P(Asp13-stat-GA24-stat-PBA18-stat-PAPE3)]. PBA segment can reversibly bind blood glucose or GA segment for long-term regulation of blood glucose levels; PAPE segment can scavenge excessive ROS for renoprotection. In vitro studies confirmed that the glycopolymersomes exhibit efficient blood glucose responsiveness within 2 h and satisfactory ROS-scavenging ability with 500 μM H2O2. Moreover, the glycopolymersomes display long-acting regulation of blood glucose levels in type 2 diabetic nephropathy mice within 32 h. Dihydroethidium staining revealed that these glycopolymersomes reduced ROS to normal levels in the kidney, which led to 61.7% and 76.6% reduction in creatinine and urea levels, respectively, along with suppressing renal apoptosis, collagen accumulation, and glycogen deposition in type 2 diabetic nephropathy mice. Notably, the polypeptide-based glycopolymersome was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs), thereby exhibiting favorable biodegradability. Overall, we proposed a new glycopolymersome strategy for 'drug-free' treatment of diabetic nephropathy, which could be extended to encompass the design of various multifunctional nanoparticles targeting diabetes and its associated complications.

Abstract
Investigations of host-guest interactions at water-oil (w/o) interfaces are limited in single emulsion systems producing simple self-assembled objects with limited uses. Here, within hierarchically ordered water-in-oil-in-water (w/o/w) multiple emulsion droplets, interfacial self-assembly of (polynorbornene-graft-polystyrene)-block-(polynorbornene-graft-polyethylene glycol) (PNPS-b-PNPEG) bottlebrush block copolymers can be precisely controlled through host-guest interactions. α-Cyclodextrin (α-CD) in the aqueous phase can thread onto PEG side chains of the bottlebrush surfactants adsorbed at the w/o interface, leading to dehydration and collapsed chain conformation of the PEG block. Consequently, spherical curvature of the w/o internal droplets increases with the increased asymmetry of the bottlebrush molecules, producing photonic supraballs with precisely tailored structural parameters as well as photonic bandgaps. This work provides a simple but highly effective strategy for precise manipulation of complex emulsion systems applicable in a variety of applications, such as photonic pigments, cosmetic products, pesticides, artificial cells, etc.

Abstract
Polymersomes have been extensively investigated for drug delivery as nanocarriers for two decades due to a series of advantages including high stability under physiological conditions, simultaneous encapsulation of hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs inside inner cavities and membranes, respectively, and facile adjustment of membrane and surface properties, as well as controlled drug release through incorporation of stimuli-responsive components. Despite these features, polymersome nanocarriers frequently suffer from nontargeting delivery and poor membrane permeability. In recent years, polymersomes have been functionalized for more efficient drug delivery. The surface shells were explored to be modified with diverse active targeting groups to improve disease-targeting delivery. The membrane permeability of the polymersomes was adjusted by incorporation of the stimuli-responsive components for smart controlled transportation of the encapsulated drugs. Therefore, being the polymersome-biointerface, tailorable properties can be introduced by its carefully modulated engineering. This review elaborates on the role of polymersome membranes as a platform to incorporate versatile features. First, we discuss how surface functionalization facilitates the directional journey to the targeting sites toward specific diseases, cells, or intracellular organelles via active targeting. Moreover, recent advances in the past decade related to membrane permeability to control drug release are also summarized. We finally discuss future development to promote polymersomes as in vivo drug delivery nanocarriers.

Abstract
To solve the problems of low bioavailability and low intestinal release efficiency of curcumin as a hydrophobic drug in the treatment of diabetes, a novel alginate ester/Antarctic krill protein/2-formylphenylboronic acid (AE/AKP/2-FPBA) skin-core structural fiber with pH and glucose stimulation responsiveness was prepared by an acid-catalyzed polyol in situ crosslinked phase separation method as a drug delivery system. The reaction mechanism and apparent morphology of the fiber were studied. The controlled release ability of the fiber in simulated liquids was evaluated. AE targeted the release of curcumin by pH stimulation; the release amount in the simulated colonic fluid reached 100%, while the release amount in the simulated digestive fluid was less than 12%. 2-FPBA controlled the release rate of curcumin by glucose stimulation, which increases with the increase of 2-FPBA content. Moreover, the cytotoxicity test confirmed that the skin-core structural fiber was non-toxic. These results suggest that skin-core structural fibers have great potential as curcumin delivery systems.

Abstract
The tremendous development of peptide-based cancer vaccine has attracted incremental interest as a powerful approach in cancer management, prevention and treatment. As successful as tumor vaccine has been, major challenges associated with achieving efficient immune response against cancer are (1) drainage to and retention in lymph nodes; (2) uptake by dendritic cells (DCs); (3) activation of DCs. In order to overcome these barriers, here we construct PBE-modified TRP2 nanovaccine, which comprises TRP2 peptide tumor antigen and diblock copolymer PEG-b-PAsp grafted with phenylboronic ester (PBE). We confirmed that this TRP2 nanovaccine can be effectively trapped into lymph node, uptake by dendritic cells and induce DC maturation, relying on increased negative charge, ROS response and pH response. Consistently, this vehicle loaded with TRP2 peptide could boost the strongest T cell immune response against melanoma in vivo and potentiate antitumor efficacy both in tumor prevention and tumor treatment without any exogenous adjuvant. Furthermore, the TRP2 nanovaccine can suppress the tumor growth and prolong animal survival time, which may result from its synergistic effect of inhibiting tumor immunosuppression and increasing cytotoxic lymphocyte (CTL) response. Hence this type of PBE-modified nanovaccine would be widely used as a simple, safe and robust platform to deliver other antigen in cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Diabetic patients with type 1 or advanced type 2 stages need timely and precise insulin injection to regulate the daily blood glucose levels (BGLs). Otherwise, risks of serious or even deadly diabetes-associated complications occur. To achieve prolonged glucose regulation and low hypoglycemia risks, a novel on-demand glucose-responsive glycopolymer system was constructed for insulin delivery, which was self-assembled into nanoparticles by dynamic covalent bonds between two polymers: fluorophenylboronic acid-grafted polymer (poly-F) and polyol polymer (poly-G). Insulin was loaded during the assembly process. The nanoparticles showed excellent glucose responsiveness in vitro, with controlled insulin release at different glucose concentrations. In vivo treatment on type 1 diabetic mice showed prolonged BGL regulation and lower hypoglycemia risks. The mild preparation of the nanoparticles and outstanding glucose control shed light on the optional diabetic treatment for further clinical use.

Abstract
Diabetes is a metabolic disease that is affecting an ever-increasing number of people worldwide, resulting in increased burdens on healthcare systems and societies. Constant monitoring of blood glucose levels is required to prevent serious or even deadly complications. One major challenge of diabetes management is the simple and timely administration of insulin to facilitate consistent blood glucose regulation and reduce the incidence of hypoglycemia. With this research, we construct an insulin delivery system, the delivery system is comprised of phenylboronic acid based fluorescent probes, which is used as glucose responsive linkers, mesoporous silica nanoparticles providing an insulin reservoir, and zinc oxide nanoparticles used as gate keepers. The system with glucose sensitive responsive linker exhibits controlled release of insulin under high glucose concentrations, providing prolonged blood glucose regulation and no risks of hypoglycemia. Furthermore, the system is combined with a hyaluronic-acid based microneedle patch, which exhibit efficient skin penetration for transdermal delivery. With our system, the nanoparticles provide outstanding in vivo glucose regulation when administrated by subcutaneous injection or via transdermal microneedle patch. We anticipate that our biocompatible smart glucose responsive microneedle patch (SGRM patch) will facilitate the development of clinically useful systems.

Abstract
Recent years have seen increasing interests in the use of ring-opening polymerization of α-amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs) to prepare synthetic polypeptides, a class of biocompatible and versatile materials, for various biomedical applications. Because of their rich side-chain functionalities, diverse hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity profiles, and the capability of forming stable secondary structures, polypeptides can assemble into a variety of well-organized nano-structures that have unique advantages in drug delivery and controlled release. Herein, we review the design and use of polypeptide-based drug delivery system derived from NCA chemistry, and discuss the future perspectives of this exciting and important biomaterial area that may potentially change the landscape of next-generation therapeutics and diagnosis. Given the high significance of precise control over release for polypeptide-based systems, we specifically focus on the versatile designs of drug delivery systems capable of programmed release, through the changes in the chemical and physical properties controlled by the built-in molecular structures of polypeptides.

Abstract
Smart polymers as ideal drug nanocarriers have attracted much attention due to the effective drug delivery, internalization and release once triggered by intracellular stimuli, as well as reduced cytotoxicity. We here reported the anionic micelle consisting of copolymer (PEG-b-PAsp) and a PBE (Phenylboronic Ester) group grafted, which can achieve fast response to intracellular ROS and enhanced anti-tumor activity. With this, PEG-b-PAsp-g-PBE/DOX system showed better tumor growth inhibition when studied on HeLa cell lines with high level of intracellular ROS and its subcutaneous tumor models. Additionally, the administration of PEG-b-PAsp-g-PBE/DOX did cause significantly lower systemic toxicity in comparison with free DOX. Hence, PEG-b-PAsp-g-PBE could be a highly efficient and safe nanocarrier to improve the efficacy of chemotherapeutic.

Abstract
The clinical success of polypeptides as polymeric drugs, covered by the umbrella term "polymer therapeutics," combined with related scientific and technological breakthroughs, explain their exponential growth in the development of polypeptide-drug conjugates as therapeutic agents. A deeper understanding of the biology at relevant pathological sites and the critical biological barriers faced, combined with advances regarding controlled polymerization techniques, material bioresponsiveness, analytical methods, and scale up-manufacture processes, have fostered the development of these nature-mimicking entities. Now, engineered polypeptides have the potential to combat current challenges in the advanced drug delivery field. In this review, we will discuss examples of polypeptide-drug conjugates as single or combination therapies in both preclinical and clinical studies as therapeutics and molecular imaging tools. Importantly, we will critically discuss relevant examples to highlight those parameters relevant to their rational design, such as linking chemistry, the analytical strategies employed, and their physicochemical and biological characterization, that will foster their rapid clinical translation.

Abstract
Thermo-, pH- and glucose-responsive polymeric nanoparticles are of great interest in developing a self-regulated drug delivery system. The novel core-shell nanoparticles were synthesized by self-assembly of a phenylboronic acid-based block copolymer poly-(N-isopropylacrylamide)-block-poly(3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid) (PNIPAM136-b-PAPBA16) and a fluorescent complex glucosamine-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)/Eu(III) (GA-PNIPAM)/Eu(III) based on the cross-linking between PBA- and GA-containing blocks in this work. The nanoparticles can be tuned via thermo-induced collapse or glucose-induced swelling at appropriate pH and temperatures; they had an average kinetic radius was about 80nm, and which showed excellent fluorescence. MTT assays revealed the nanocarriers had no significant cytotoxic response of the micelle when it was observed in the cell line over the concentration range from 0.1 to 1000 μg/ml at any exposure times.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder disease characterized by high blood glucose levels and has become one of the most serious threats to human health. In recent decades, a number of insulin delivery systems, including bulk gels, nanogels, and polymeric micelles, have been developed for the treatment of diabetes. Herein, a kind of glucose and H2O2 dual-responsive polymeric nanogel was designed for enhanced glucose-responsive insulin delivery. The polymeric nanogels composed of poly(ethylene glycol) and poly(cyclic phenylboronic ester) (glucose and H2O2 dual-sensitive groups) were synthesized by a one-pot thiol-ene click chemistry approach. The nanogels displayed glucose-responsive release of insulin and the release rate could be promoted by the incorporation of glucose oxidase (GOx), which generated H2O2 at high glucose levels and H2O2 further oxidizes and hydrolyzes the phenylboronic ester group. The nanogels have characteristics of long blood circulation time, a fast response to glucose, and excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, subcutaneous delivery of insulin to diabetic mice with the insulin/GOx-loaded nanogels presented an effective hypoglycemic effect compared to that of injection of insulin or insulin-loaded nanogels. This kind of nanogel would be a promising candidate for the delivery of insulin in the future.

Abstract
Boronic acids have found widespread use in the field of biomaterials, primarily through their ability to bind with biologically relevant 1,2- and 1,3-diols, including saccharides and peptidoglycans, or with polyols to prepare hydrogels with dynamic covalent or responsive behavior. Despite a wide range of boronic acid architectures that have been previously considered, there is a need for greater understanding of the structure-reactivity relationships that govern binding affinity to diols. In this study, various boronic acids and other organoboron compounds were investigated to determine their pK a and their binding constants with the biologically relevant diols including sorbitol, fructose, and glucose. Boronic acid pK a values were determined through spectroscopic titration, whereas binding constants were determined by fluorescence spectroscopy during competitive binding studies. Key structure-reactivity relationships clearly indicated that both boronic acid structure and solution pH must be carefully considered. By considering a variety of boronic acids with systematically varied electronics and sterics, these results provide guidance during selection of organoboron compounds in sensing, delivery, and materials chemistry.

Abstract
Insulin plays a significant role in diabetes treatment. Although a huge number of insulin-loaded, glucose-responsive nanocarriers have been developed in past decades, most of them showed a lower loading capacity and efficiency due to the weak interaction between insulin and nanocarriers. In this work, a novel insulin-encapsulated glucose-responsive polymeric complex micelle (CM) is devised, showing (i) enhanced insulin-loading efficiency owing to the zinc ions' chelation by nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) groups of NTA-functioned glycopolymer and the histidine imidazole of insulin, (ii) the glucose-triggered pulse release of insulin, and (iii) long stability under physiological conditions. This CM was fabricated by the self-assembly of block copolymer PEG- b-P(Asp- co-AspPBA) and glycopolymer P(Asp- co-AspGA- co-AspNTA), resulting in complex micelles with a PEG shell and a cross-linked core composed of phenylboronic acid (PBA)/glucose complexations. Notably, the modified nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) groups of CM could specifically bind insulin via chelated zinc ions, thus enhancing the loading efficacy of insulin compared to that of nonmodified CM. The dynamic PBA/glucose complexation core of CM dissociates under the trigger of high glucose concentration (>2 g/L) while being quite stable in low glucose concentrations (<2 g/L), as demonstrated by the pulse release of insulin in vitro. Finally, in a murine model of type 1 diabetes, NTA-modified complex micelles loading an insulin (NTA-CM-INS) group exhibited a long hypoglycemic effect which is superior to that of free insulin in the PBS (PBS-INS) group and insulin-loaded complex micelles without an NTA modification (CM-INS) group. This long-term effect benefited from Zn(II) chelation by NTA-modified complex micelles and could avoid hypoglycemia caused by the burst release of insulin. Taken together, this constitutes a highly effective way to encapsulate insulin and release insulin via an on-demand manner for blood glucose control in diabetes.

Abstract
Glucose-sensitive drug delivery systems, which can continuously and automatically regulate drug release based on the concentration of glucose, have attracted much interest in recent years. Self-regulated drug delivery platforms have potential application in diabetes treatment to reduce the intervention and improve the quality of life for patients. At present, there are three types of glucose-sensitive drug delivery systems based on glucose oxidase (GOD), concanavalin A (Con A), and phenylboronic acid (PBA) respectively. This review covers the recent advances in GOD-, Con A-, or PBA-mediated glucose-sensitive nanoscale drug delivery systems, and provides their major challenges and opportunities.

Abstract
Polymer vesicles are self-assembled shells of amphiphilic block copolymers (BCPs) that have attracted tremendous interest due to their encapsulation ability and intracellular delivery of therapeutic agents. However, typical processes for the formation of polymer vesicles lead to ensembles of structures with a broad size distribution (from nanometer to micrometer scale) which result in a limitation for efficient cellular uptake. In this study, we present a simple and efficient approach for the fabrication of polymer vesicles with uniform nanoscale dimensions from template formation of electrosprayed particles in a high throughput manner. First, electrospraying was applied to produce micrometer-sized templates of a block copolymer before polymer vesicles were formed from the pre-prepared microparticles via rehydration. Four different biocompatible diblock and triblock copolymers were used to successfully fabricate polymer vesicles with uniform size around 150nm using this approach. Furthermore, we encapsulate anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) within the polymer vesicles via this method. The kinetics of cellular uptake (HeLa cell) and intracellular distribution of DOX-loaded polymer vesicles have been quntified and monitored by flow cytometry and confocal microscopy, respectively. The results show that our new method provides a promising way to fabricate drug-loaded polymer vesicles with controllable nanoscale size for intracellular anticancer drug delivery.

Abstract
In recent years, glucose-sensitive drug delivery systems have attracted considerable attention in the treatment of diabetes. These systems can regulate payload release by the changes of blood glucose levels continuously and automatically with potential application in self-regulated drug delivery. Boronic acid (BA), especially phenylboronic acid (PBA), as glucose-sensitive agent has been the focus of research in the design of glucose-sensitive platforms. This article reviews the previous attempts at the developments of PBA-based glucose-sensitive drug delivery systems regarding the PBA-functionalized materials and glucose-triggered drug delivery. The obstacles and potential developments of glucose-sensitive drug delivery systems based on PBA for diabetes treatment in the future are also described. The PBA-functionalized platforms that regulate drug delivery induced by glucose are expected to contribute significantly to the design and development of advanced intelligent self-regulated drug delivery systems for treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
Boronic acid-containing (co)polymers have fascinated researchers for decades, garnering attention for their unique responsiveness toward 1,2- and 1,3-diols, including saccharides and nucleotides. The applications of materials that exert this property are manifold including sensing, but also self-regulated drug delivery systems through responsive membranes or micelles. In this review, some of the main applications of boronic acid containing (co)polymers are discussed focusing on the role of the boronic acid group in the response mechanism. We hope that this summary, which highlights the importance and potential of boronic acid-decorated polymeric materials, will inspire further research within this interesting field of responsive polymers and polymeric materials.
