[PMID: 36985729 PMCID: PMC10054415 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28062757] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Heparin (Hep), with its anticoagulant activity, antiangiogenic and apoptotic effects, and growth factor binding, plays an important role in various biological processes. Formulations as drug delivery systems protect its biological activity, and limit the potential side effects of faulty administration. The objective of this study was to develop novel xanthan-based materials as a delivery carrier for heparin. The materials exhibited remarkable elastic behavior and toughness without any crack development within the network, which also support their application for tissue engineering. It was found that all materials possessed the ability to control the release of heparin, according to the Korsmeyer-Peppas release model. All Hep-containing materials caused significant exchanges of the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and prothrombin time (PT) parameters, indicating that formulated natural/natural synthetic polymeric networks conserved heparin's biological activity and its ability to interrupt the blood coagulation cascade. The obtained results confirmed that developed materials could be carriers for the controlled release of heparin, with potential applications in topical administration.

Abstract
Preventing tumor recurrence is the most important target for cancer treatment. However, the current effective and advanced technology relies on the use of near-infrared region (NIR), and the equipment of NIR-I and NIR-II fluorescence imaging technique-based fluorescent-guided surgery is expensive and complicated to operate. Here, we report a safe and effective strategy of an organic-inorganic hybrid gold nanoparticle-based novel smart probe (Au@PDA-ss-PEGm NPs) which is appropriate for photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and plasmonic photothermal therapy (PPTT) of tumors in vivo. After intravenous injection, the probe would be transported to the tumor to penetrate the cellular membrane. Then the disulfide bond on the probe surface would be broken with the help of a high concentration of glutathione in the tumor cell. The remaining Au@PDA NPs would aggregate to form plasmonic nanoclusters and exhibit a notable plasmon coupling enhanced photothermal (PCEPT) effect. Besides, the results further proved its good biosafety and pharmacokinetic characteristics in vivo and, more important, a short time exposure under 808 nm laser after surgical removal of the tumor, which would be effective to prevent tumor recurrence and bring dawn to the high-efficiency treatment of tumors.

Abstract
Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is applied extensively in biomedical fields because of its nontoxic, nonimmunogenic, and protein resistance properties. However, the strong hydrophilicity of PEG prevents it from self-assembling into an amphiphilic micelle in water, making it a challenge to fabricate a full-PEG carrier to deliver hydrophobic anticancer drugs. Herein, a paclitaxel (PTX)-loaded nanodrug was readily prepared through self-assembly of PTX and an amphiphilic PEG derivative, which was synthesized via melt polycondensation of two PEG diols (i.e., PEG200 and PEG10k) and mercaptosuccinic acid. The full PEG component endows the nanocarrier with good biocompatibility. Furthermore, because of the core cross-linked structure via the oxidation of mercapto groups, the nanodrug can be selectively disassociated under an intratumor reductive microenvironment through the reduction of disulfide bonds to release the loaded PTX and kill the cancer cells while maintaining high stability under the extratumor physiological condition. Additionally, it was confirmed that the nanodrug not only prolongs the biocirculation time of PTX but also possesses excellent in vivo antitumor efficacy while avoiding side effects of free PTX, for example, liver damage, which is promising for delivering clinical hydrophobic drugs to treat a variety of malignant tumors.

Abstract
This review article highlights selected advances in triphosgene-enabled organic synthetic reactions that were reported in the decade of 2010-2019. Triphosgene is a versatile reagent in organic synthesis. It serves as a convenient substitute for the toxic phosgene gas. Despite its first known preparation in the late 19th interestingly began only three decades ago. Despite the relatively short history, triphosgene has been proven to be very useful in facilitating the preparation of a vast scope of value-added compounds, such as organohalides, acid chlorides, isocyanates, carbonyl addition adducts, heterocycles, among others. Furthermore, applications of triphosgene in complex molecules synthesis, polymer synthesis, and other techniques, such as flow chemistry and solid phase synthesis, have also emerged in the literature.

Abstract
Molecular imaging has received increased attention worldwide, including in China, because it offers noninvasive characterization of widely diverse clinically significant pathologies. To achieve these goals, nanomedicine has evolved into a broad interdisciplinary field with flexible designs to accommodate and concentrate imaging and therapeutic payloads into pathological cells through selective binding to disease specific cell membrane biomarkers. This concept of personalized medicine reflects the vision of "magic bullets" proposed by German biochemist Paul Ehrlich over 100 years ago. As happening worldwide, Chinese scientists are contributing to this tsunami of science and technologies through impactful national programs and international research collaborations. This review provides a comprehensive update of Chinese innovations to address intractable unmet medical need in China and worldwide in the optical sciences. This article is categorized under: Diagnostic Tools > in vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging.

Abstract
Physical or chemical crosslinking of polymeric micelles has emerged as a straightforward approach to overcome the intrinsic instability of assemblies. However, the crosslinking process may compromise the responsivity of nanosystems and result in inefficient release of payloads. To address this dilemma, a crosslinking induced reassembly (CIRA) strategy is reported here to simultaneously increase the kinetic and thermodynamic stability and redox-responsivity of polymeric micelles. It is found that the click crosslinking of a model multiblock polyurethane at the micellar interface induces microphase separation between the soft and hard segments. The aggregation of hard domains gathers liable disulfide linkages around the interlayer of micelles, which could facilitate the attack of reducing agents and act as an intelligent on-off switch for high stability and triggered release. As a result, the CIRA approach enables an enhanced tumor targeting, improved biodistribution and excellent therapeutic efficacy in vivo. This work provides a facile and versatile platform for controlled delivery applications.

Abstract
The development of smart delivery systems that are robust in circulation and quickly release drugs following selective internalization into target cancer cells is a key to precision cancer therapy. Interestingly, reduction-sensitive polymeric nanomedicines showing high plasma stability and triggered cytoplasmic drug release behavior have recently emerged as one of the most exciting platforms for targeted delivery of various anticancer drugs including small chemical drugs, proteins, and nucleic acids. In vivo studies in varying tumor models reveal that these reduction-sensitive multifunctional nanomedicines outperform the currently used clinical formulations and reduction-insensitive counterparts, bringing about not only significantly enhanced tumor selectivity, accumulation and inhibition efficacy but also markedly reduced systemic toxicity and improved therapeutic index. In this review, we will highlight the cutting-edge advancement with a focus on in vivo performances as well as future perspectives on reduction-sensitive polymeric nanomedicines for targeted cancer therapy.

Abstract
In this report, a new star-like copolymer β-CD- g-(PNIPAAm- b-POEGA) x, consisting of a β-CD core, grafted with temperature-responsive poly( N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) and biocompatible poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) acrylate) (POEGA) in a block copolymer of the arms, was used to deliver chemotherapeutics to drug resistant cancer cells and tumors. The first step of the self-assembly process involves the encapsulation of chemotherapeutics through host-guest inclusion complexation between the β-cyclodextrin cavity and the anticancer drug. Next, the chain interaction of the PNIPAAm segment at elevated temperature drives the drug-loaded β-CD- g-(PNIPAAm- b-POEGA) x/PTX inclusion complex to hierarchically self-assemble into nanosized supramolecular assemblies at 37 °C, whereas the presence of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) chains in the distal end of the star-like copolymer arms impart enhanced stability to the self-assembled structure. More interestingly, this supramolecular host-guest nanocomplex promoted the enhanced cellular uptake of chemotherapeutics in MDR-1 up-regulated drug resistant cancer cells and exhibited high therapeutic efficacy for suppressing drug resistant tumor growth in an in vivo mouse model, due to the increased stability, improvement in aqueous solubility, enhanced cellular uptake, and partial membrane pump impairment by taking the advantage of PEGylation and supramolecular complex between this star-like copolymer and chemotherapeutics. This work signifies that temperature-sensitive PEGylated supramolecular nanocarriers with good biocompatibility are effective in combating MDR-1 mediated drug resistance in both in vitro and in vivo models, which is of significant importance for the advanced drug delivery platform designed to combat drug resistant cancer.

Clickable and imageable multiblock polymer micelles with magnetically guided and PEG-switched targeting and release property for precise tumor theranosis. Biomaterials 2017; 145:138-153. [PMID: 28863308 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2017.08.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2017] [Revised: 07/01/2017] [Accepted: 08/01/2017] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Targeted delivery of therapeutics and diagnostics using nanotechnology holds great promise to minimize the side effects of conventional chemotherapy and enable specific and real-time detection of diseases. To realize this goal, we report a clickable and imageable nanovehicle assembled from multiblock polyurethanes (MPUs). The soft segments of the polymers are based on detachable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and degradable poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), and the hard segments are constructed from lysine- and cystine-derivatives bearing reduction-responsive disulfide linkages and click-active alkynyl moieties, allowing for post-conjugation of targeting ligands via a click chemistry. It was found that the cleavage of PEG corona bearing a pH-sensitive benzoic-imine linkage (BPEG) could act as an on-off switch, which is capable of activating the clicked targeting ligands under extracellular acidic condition, followed by triggering the core degradation and payload release within tumor cells. In combination with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) clustered within the micellar core, the MPUs exhibit excellent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast effects and T2 relaxation in vitro, as well as magnetically guided MR imaging and multimodal targeting of therapeutics to tumor precisely, leading to significant inhibition of cancer with minimal side effect. This work provides a safe and versatile platform for the further development of smart theranostic systems for potential magnetically-targeted and imaging-guided personalized medicine.
