Abstract
Growing demand for highly effective, site-specific delivery of pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals using nano-sized carriers has prompted increased scrutiny of carrier biocompatibility and biodegradability. To address these concerns, biodegradable natural polymers have emerged as a transformative domain, offering non-toxic, precisely targetable carriers capable of finely modulating cargo pharmacokinetics while generating innocuous decomposition by-products. This comprehensive review illuminates the emergence of polysaccharide-based nanoparticulate drug delivery systems. These systems establish an interactive interface between drug and targeted organs, guided by strategic modifications to polysaccharide backbones, which facilitate the creation of morphologically, constitutionally, and characteristically vibrant nanostructures through various fabrication routes, underpinning their pivotal role in biomedical applications. Advancements crucial to enhancing polysaccharide-based drug delivery, such as surface modifications and bioinspired modifications for enhanced targeting, and stimuli-responsive release, strategies to overcome biological barriers, enhance tumor penetration, and optimize therapeutic outcomes are highlighted. This review also examines some potent challenges, and the contemporary way out of them, and discusses future perspectives in the field.

Carbohydr Polym 2023; 312:120838. [PMID: 37059563 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.120838] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2022] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/19/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023]
Abstract
The oral route has long been recognized as the most preferred route for drug delivery as it offers high patient compliance and requires minimal expertise. Unlike small molecule drugs, the harsh environment of the gastrointestinal tract and low permeability across the intestinal epithelium make oral delivery extremely ineffective for macromolecules. Accordingly, delivery systems that are rationally constructed with suitable materials to overcome barriers to oral delivery are exceptionally promising. Among the most ideal materials are polysaccharides. Depending on the interaction between polysaccharides and proteins, the thermodynamic loading and release of proteins in the aqueous phase can be realized. Specific polysaccharides (dextran, chitosan, alginate, cellulose, etc.) endow systems with functional properties, including muco-adhesiveness, pH-responsiveness, and prevention of enzymatic degradation. Furthermore, multiple groups in polysaccharides can be modified, which gives them a variety of properties and enables them to suit specific needs. This review provides an overview of different types of polysaccharide-based nanocarriers based on different kinds of interaction forces and the influencing factors in the construction of polysaccharide-based nanocarriers. Strategies of polysaccharide-based nanocarriers to improve the bioavailability of orally administered proteins/peptides were described. Additionally, current restrictions and future trends of polysaccharide-based nanocarriers for oral delivery of proteins/peptides were also covered.

Abstract
Plant-based polyphenols are natural compounds, present in fruits and vegetables. During recent years, polyphenols have gained special attention due to their nutraceutical and pharmacological activities for the prevention and treatment of human diseases. Nevertheless, their photosensitivity and low bioavailability, rapid metabolism and short biological half-life represent the major limitations for their use, which could be overcome by polyphenols encapsulation (flavonoids and non-flavonoids) into chitosan (CS)-tripolyphosphate (TPP) based nanoparticles (NP). In this review, we particularly focused on the ionic gelation method for the NP design. This contribution exhaustively discusses and compares results of scientific reports published in the last decade referring to ionic gelation applied for the protection, controlled and site-directed delivery of polyphenols. As a consequence, CS-TPP NP would constitute true platforms to transport polyphenols, or a combination of them, to be used for the designing of a new generation of drugs or nutraceuticals.

Abstract
The search for the exploitation and recycling of biomaterials is increasing for reducing the use of non-renewable resources and minimizing environmental pollution caused by synthetic materials. In this context, Chitosan (CS) being a naturally occurring biopolymer becomes relevant. The aim of the present work was to explore the effects of High Molecular Weight CS (H-CS) from Argentinean shrimp's wastes in prokaryotic and eukaryotic in vitro cell cultures. Ultrastructure of H-CS was analysed by SEM and TEM. In vitro studies were performed in prokaryotic (Lactobacillus casei BL23) and eukaryotic (Caco-2, ARPE-19, EA.hy926 and 3T3-L1) culture cells. High performance microscopic techniques were applied to examine culture cells. No changes in morphology were found in any of the cell types. In addition, fluorescent-dyed H-CS revealed that eukaryotic cells could internalize it optimally. Viability was maintained and proliferation rate even increased for Caco-2, ARPE-19 and 3T3-L1 cells under H-CS treatment. Besides, viability was neither altered in L. casei nor in EA.hy926 cells after H-CS exposure. In conclusion, H-CS could be a suitable biopolymer to be exploited for biomedical or food industry applications.

Abstract
Performing dynamic off-lattice multicanonical Monte Carlo simulations, we study the statics, dynamics, and scission-recombination kinetics of a self-assembled in situ-polymerized polydisperse living polymer brush (LPB), designed by surface-initiated living polymerization. The living brush is initially grown from a two-dimensional substrate by end-monomer polymerization-depolymerization reactions through seeding of initiator arrays on the grafting plane which come in contact with a solution of nonbonded monomers under good solvent conditions. The polydispersity is shown to significantly deviate from the Flory-Schulz type for low temperatures because of pronounced diffusion limitation effects on the rate of the equilibration reaction. The self-avoiding chains take up fairly compact structures of typical size Rg(N) ∼ Nν in rigorously two-dimensional (d = 2) melt, with ν being the inverse fractal dimension (ν = 1/d). The Kratky description of the intramolecular structure factor F(q), in keeping with the concept of generalized Porod scattering from compact particles with fractal contour, discloses a robust nonmonotonic fashion with qdF(q) ∼ (qRg)-3/4 in the intermediate-q regime. It is found that the kinetics of LPB growth, given by the variation of the mean chain length, follows a power law ⟨N(t)⟩ ∝ t1/3 with elapsed time after the onset of polymerization, whereby the instantaneous molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the chains c(N) retains its functional form. The variation of ⟨N(t)⟩ during quenches of the LPB to different temperatures T can be described by a single master curve in units of dimensionless time t/τ∞, where τ∞ is the typical (final temperature T∞-dependent) relaxation time which is found to scale as τ∞ ∝ ⟨N(t = ∞)⟩5 with the ultimate average length of the chains. The equilibrium monomer density profile ϕ(z) of the LPB varies as ϕ(z) ∝ ϕ-α with the concentration of segments ϕ in the system and the probability distribution c(N) of chain lengths N in the brush layer scales as c(N) ∝ N-τ. The computed exponents α ≈ 0.64 and τ ≈ 1.70 are in good agreement with those predicted within the context of the Diffusion-Limited Aggregation theory, α = 2/3 and τ = 7/4.
