Abstract
Anthocyanins with different structures have different anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. Precise structural use can improve the chemopreventive effects of anthocyanins and enhance treatment outcomes because the anthocyanin structure influences its functional sites and activities. However, owing to the available variety of anthocyanins and their complex structures, the low matching of intermolecular forces between existing adsorbents and anthocyanins limits the targeted separation of anthocyanin monomers. Short-range and efficient selective binding, which is difficult to achieve, is the current focus in the extraction field. We here developed self-assembled Fe3O4-based nano adsorbers with different surface modifications based on adsorption-pairing synergy. The electrostatic force, coordination bond, hydrogen bond, and π-π* bond together induced selective adsorption between Fe3O4 nanoparticles and anthocyanin molecules. An acid-release solution disrupted the polarity balance in the aforementioned association system, thereby promoting the controlled release of anthocyanins. Among the candidates, the effects of morphology, particle size, surface charge, and functional group on adsorption performance were analyzed. The polyacrylamide-modified magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles were found to be favorable for selectively extracting anthocyanin, with an adsorption capacity of 19.74 ± 0.07 mg g-1. The release percentage of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside reached up to 98.6% ± 1.4%. This study offers a scientific basis for developing feasible nanotechniques to extract anthocyanins and plant active substances.

Abstract
The traditional nanocarriers are typically constructed to deliver anticancer agents for improving drug bioavailability and enhancing chemotherapeutic efficacy, but this strategy suffers from the critical issue of nanocarrier biosafety that hinders further clinical translation. In this work, a unique nanomedicine (PTX@ICG) has been rationally constructed by combining two clinically approved agents, i.e., paclitaxel (PTX) and indocyanine green (ICG), by a facile ultrasound-assisted self-assembly methodology. The formation of the nanostructure can effectively increase the enrichment of PTX and ICG molecules in the tumor site, and improve the utilization factor of hydrophobic PTX. Moreover, since the molecule interaction in PTX@ICG is mainly Van der Waals forces, the self-assembled structure can be spontaneously dissociated under laser irradiation and release PTX in situ to achieve safe tumor-targeted chemotherapy. Simultaneously, the released ICG can act as photothermic agents for photothermal therapy (PTT), thus combining chemotherapy and PTT to obtain an enhanced tumor nanotherapy via facile self-assembly. The synergistic chemo/photothermal tumor nanotherapy achieved the efficient tumor cell-killing effect and tumor-ablation ability, as systematically demonstrated both in vitro and in vivo. This work provides a distinct paradigm of the self-assembled nanomedicine design for effectively improving the drug bioavailability to achieve high antitumor efficacy.

Abstract
Shape memory hydrogels attract increasing attention as flexible strain sensors due to their shape recovery property that can improve the lifetime of the sensor. Herein, we have designed a magnetic shape memory hydrogel based on Fe3O4 nanoparticles, carrageenan, and poly (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) with self-adhesive and conductive properties. The resulting double network hydrogel showed promising actuator and strain sensor applications. Electrical conductivity was observed in this hydrogel without using additional ions. The presence of magnetite nanoparticles increased the tensile strength and temporary shape fixity ratio to around 6.5 MPa and 94.3 %, respectively. The excellent cantilever and catheter-like behavior of the hydrogels were illustrated through magnetic routing by an external magnet. Also, these hydrogels demonstrated suitable performance in the 500 cycles strain sensing tests before and after their initial shape recovery.

Abstract
A new core-shell pH-responsive nanocarrier was prepared based on magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) core. Magnetic nanoparticles were first modified with hyperbranched polyglycerol as the first shell. Then the magnetic core was decorated with doxorubicin anticancer drug (DOX) and covered with PEGylated carboxymethylcellulose as the second shell. Borax was used to partially cross-link organic shells in order to evaluate drug loading content and pH-sensitivity. The structure of nanocarrier, organic shell loadings, magnetic responsibility, morphology, size, dispersibility, and drug loading content were investigated by IR, NMR, TG, VSM, XRD, DLS, HR-TEM and UV-Vis analyses. In vitro release investigations demonstrated that the use of borax as cross-linker between organic shells make the nanocarrier highly sensitive to pH so that more that 70% of DOX is released in acidic pH. A reverse pH-sensitivity was observed for the nanocarrier without borax cross-linker. The MTT assay determined that the nanocarrier exhibited excellent biocompatibility toward normal cells (HEK-293) and high toxicity against cancerous cells (HeLa). The nanocarrier also showed high hemocompatibility. Cellular uptake revealed high ability of nanocarrier toward HeLa cells comparable with free DOX. The results also suggested that low concentration of nanocarrier has a great potential for use as contrast agent in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Abstract
Nanosystems have shown encouraging outcomes and substantial progress in the areas of drug delivery and biomedical applications. However, the controlled and targeted delivery of drugs or genes can be limited due to their physicochemical and functional properties. In this regard, core-shell type nanoparticles are promising nanocarrier systems for controlled and targeted drug delivery applications. These functional nanoparticles are emerging as a particular class of nanosystems because of their unique advantages, including high surface area, and easy surface modification and functionalization. Such unique advantages can facilitate the use of core-shell nanoparticles for the selective mingling of two or more different functional properties in a single nanosystem to achieve the desired physicochemical properties that are essential for effective targeted drug delivery. Several types of core-shell nanoparticles, such as metallic, magnetic, silica-based, upconversion, and carbon-based core-shell nanoparticles, have been designed and developed for drug delivery applications. Keeping the scope, demand, and challenges in view, the present review explores state-of-the-art developments and advances in core-shell nanoparticle systems, the desired structure-property relationships, newly generated properties, the effects of parameter control, surface modification, and functionalization, and, last but not least, their promising applications in the fields of drug delivery, biomedical applications, and tissue engineering. This review also supports significant future research for developing multi-core and shell-based functional nanosystems to investigate nano-therapies that are needed for advanced, precise, and personalized healthcare systems.

Abstract
Two core-double-shell pH-sensitive nanocarriers were fabricated using Fe3O4 as magnetic core, poly(glycidyl methacrylate-PEG) and salep dialdehyde as the first and the second shell, and doxorubicin as the hydrophobic anticancer drug. Two nanocarriers were different in the drug loading steps. The interaction between the first and the second shell assumed to be pH-sensitive via acetal cross linkages. The structure of nanocarriers, organic shell loading, magnetic responsibility, morphology, size, dispersibility, and drug loading content were investigated by IR, NMR, TG, VSM, XRD, DLS, HRTEM and UV-Vis analyses. The long-term drug release profiles of both nanocarriers showed that the drug loading before cross-linking between the first and second shell led to a more pH-sensitive nanocarrier exhibiting higher control on DOX release. Cellular toxicity assay (MTT) showed that DOX-free nanocarrier is biocompatible having cell viability greater than 80% for HEK-293 and MCF-7 cell lines. Besides, high cytotoxic effect observed for drug-loaded nanocarrier on MCF-7 cancer cells. Cellular uptake analysis showed that the nanocarrier is able to transport DOX into the cytoplasm and perinuclear regions of MCF-7 cells. In vitro hemolysis and coagulation assays demonstrated high blood compatibility of nanocarrier. The results also suggested that low concentration of nanocarrier have a great potential as a contrast agent in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Abstract
A magnetic nanocarrier was synthesized in which Fe3O4 nanoparticles were encapsulated into double layers of polysaccharide shells. The first shell, which was composed of cross-linked salep polysaccharide, contained multiple nitrogen atoms in its structure and provided numerous sites for multiple functionalization. A fluorescence dye and doxorubicin, as widely used chemotherapy agent, were easily attached to the first shell and then a second shell of PEGylated carboxymethyl cellulose enveloped the drug loaded carrier to enhance its biocompatibility and regulates the drug release behavior. The results of drug loading and release behavior showed that the resulting nanocarrier can carry large amounts of drug molecules and a remarkable pH-sensitive release was observed in vitro. The hemolysis and coagulation assays proved the biocompatibility of nanocarrier toward red blood cells and the MTT experiments confirmed that the drug loaded nanocarrier is highly toxic for MCF-7 cancer cells while the unloaded nanocarrier was almost nontoxic. Further flow cytometry experiments and confocal microscopy demonstrated that the double layered magnetic nanocarrier can penetrate into the cells and efficiently release the drug molecules into the cell nucleus. Moreover, the results of MRI experiments performed on the nanocarrier showed that it can be serve as a negative MRI contrast agent.

Abstract
Anthocyanins are a class of antioxidants extracted from plants, with a variety of biochemical and pharmacological properties. However, the wide and effective applications of anthocyanins have been limited by their relatively low stability and bioavailability. In order to expand the application of anthocyanins, Fe3O4/anthocyanin magnetic biocomposite was fabricated for the storage and release of anthocyanin in this work. The magnetic biocomposite of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticle-loaded anthocyanin was prepared through physical intermolecular adsorption or covalent cross-linking. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and thermal analysis were used to characterize the biocomposite. In addition, the anthocyanin releasing experiments were performed. The optimized condition for the Fe3O4/anthocyanin magnetic biocomposite preparation was determined to be at 60 °C for 20 h in weak alkaline solution. The smooth surface of biocomposite from SEM suggested that anthocyanin was coated on the surface of the Fe3O4 particles successfully. The average size of the Fe3O4/anthocyanin magnetic biocomposite was about 222 nm. Under acidic conditions, the magnetic biocomposite solids could be repeatable released anthocyanin, with the same chemical structure as the anthocyanin before compounding. Therefore, anthocyanin can be effectively adsorbed and released by this magnetic biocomposite. Overall, this work shows that Fe3O4/anthocyanin magnetic biocomposite has great potential for future applications as a drug storage and delivery nanoplatform that is adaptable to medical, food and sensing.

Abstract
pH-sensitive doxycycline gold nanoparticles (doxy-AuNPs) are reported here to act as effective drug nanocarriers and as biocatalysts. The AuNPs were synthesized with doxy as the reducing and capping agent. Various parameters were optimized to find the best conditions for the synthesis of doxy-AuNPs, and these were characterized with UV-vis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), FTIR, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Doxy-AuNPs were then loaded with the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX), where 70% of the initially available drug was loaded within 24 h. Furthermore, pH-dependent drug release was measured at 60% with in vitro measurements in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). In addition, the doxy-AuNPs were applied as a biocatalyst. Oxidation of dopamine was taken as a model reaction to determine the catalytic activity of doxy-AuNPs. Almost complete oxidation of dopamine occurred in 5 min, which indicates the fast response of synthesized doxy-AuNPs as a biocatalyst. Hence, doxy-AuNPs are a versatile platform for drug loading and biocatalyst.

A pH-sensitive carrier based-on modified hollow mesoporous carbon nanospheres with calcium-latched gate for drug delivery. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2019; 109:110517. [PMID: 32228977 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2019.110517] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2019] [Revised: 11/12/2019] [Accepted: 12/01/2019] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
A novel nanocarrier based-on hollow mesoporous carbon nanospheres (HMCNs) with primary amines on its surface, a large cavity, and good hydrophilicity was synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction. The primary amine functionalities on the mesoporous carbon were used as the initiation sites for growing poly (epichlorohydrin) (PCH) chains. The chlorine groups in the side chain of PCH were replaced with imidazole as the pendant groups. Calcium chloride (CaCl2) was applied as a capping agent. The coordination bonding was formed between pendant imidazole groups and calcium ions. Doxorubicin (DOX) was selected as a model of hydrophilic anticancer drug and was loaded onto the nanocarrier and released through the cleavage of the pH-sensitive coordination bonding. The gating mechanism enables the nanocarrier to store and release the calcium ions and the DOX molecules trapped in the pores. MTT assay toward HeLa cells indicated that the nanocarrier had low toxicity because of the surface modification with the oxygen-rich polymer. The cellular uptake of the pH-sensitive nanocarrier for HeLa cancer cell lines was confirmed by CLSM images and flow cytometry. So, the novel pH-sensitive nanocarrier can be applicable to carry and release both DOX drug and calcium ions for cancer treatment.

Abstract
pH/reduction dual-triggered chicken-feather-keratin-based prodrug nanoparticles (C-PK/- SS-Hy-D NPs) were designed via a facile one-pot oxidation coupling reaction between the thiol-functional acid-labile prodrug M-Hy-D and the PEGylated keratin (PK) graft copolymer, for tumor intracellular doxorubicin (DOX) delivery. Due to the encapsulation of the pH and the reduction of the dual-responsive small prodrug D-Hy- SS-Hy-D, a high drug content of 45.8% was obtained in the proposed prodrug nanoparticles. They exhibited excellent pH and reduction of dual-triggered drug release, with cumulative drug release of 88.6% within 51 h in the simulated tumor intracellular microenvironment, while the premature drug leakage was only 13.7% in the simulated normal physiological medium. The in vitro experiments revealed the enhanced antitumor efficacy of the C-PK/- SS-Hy-D NPs than the free DOX at a higher dosage of >10 μg/mL.

Abstract
Magnetic drug targeting is a method by which magnetic drug carriers in the body are manipulated by external magnetic fields to reach the target area. This method is potentially promising in applications for treatment of diseases like cancers, nervous system diseases, sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and so on, due to the advantages in that it can improve efficacy, reduce drug dosage and side effects. Therefore, it has received extensive attention in recent years. Successful magnetic drug targeting requires a good magnet system to guide the drug carriers to the target site. Up to date there have been many efforts to design the magnet systems for targeted drug delivery. However, there are few comprehensive reviews on these systems. Here we review the progresses made in this field. We summarized the systems already developed or proposed, and categorized them into two groups: static field magnet systems and varying field magnet systems. Based on the requirements for more powerful targeting performance, the prospects and the future research directions in this field are anticipated.

Abstract
Liposomes have emerged as a fascinating nanocarriers for the delivery of cancer therapeutics. However, their efficacy for cancer therapy is reduced partially because of the serum-instability and incomplete drug release. In this study, a novel disulfide cross-linked liposomes (CLs) assembled from dimeric lipoic acid-derived glycerophosphorylcholine (di-LA-PC) conjugate was developed. The conjugate was synthesized by a facial esterification of lipoic acid (LA) and glycerophosphorylcholine (GPC) and characterized by MS, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. Featuring the enhanced serum-stability and intracellular drug release determined by in vitro stability and GSH-responsive behavior, CLs prepared with dried thin film technique following 10 % dithiothreitol (DTT) cross-linking can attain effective delivery of anticancer candidates. Notably, CLs stably encapsulated doxorubicin (Dox) in their vesicular structures and showed a remarkable thiol-sensitive release of payload upon cellular uptake by cancer cells, compared to that of uncross-linked liposomes (uCLs) or Doxil-like liposome (DLLs). The cell viability and apoptosis of Dox-loaded CLs worked the pronounced cytotoxic effects to MCF-7 cells with an IC50 value of 10.8 μg Dox equiv./mL comparable to free Dox and 2.8-fold higher than DLLs. More importantly, it is demonstrated that the nanoscale characteristics of Dox-loaded CLs could prevent the proliferation of adriamycin-resistant MCF-7/ADR cell line, highlighting their potential in reversal of drug resistance. Furthermore, the preliminary in vivo test (n = 3) showed that disulfide cross-linked liposomal formulation of Dox (Dox-CLs) improved the therapeutic efficacy compared to free Dox and DLLs in a human breast carcinoma xenograft mouse model. Therefore, the current thiol-responsive cross-linked liposome may provide a robust drug delivery platform for cancer therapy.
