Abstract
Inhalation of welding fumes (WFs) containing high levels of transition metals (Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni…) is associated with numerous health effects including oxidative stress. However, the measurements of the oxidative potential (OP) and bioaccessibility of WF transition metals depend on several physicochemical parameters and may be subject to several experimental artifacts. In this work, we investigated the influence of the experimental conditions that may affect the bioaccessibility of transition metals and their OP on stainless-steel WF extracts. WFs were produced using a generation bench and sampled on filters. The soluble fraction of the metals was analysed. Two different extraction fluids mimicking physiological pulmonary conditions were studied: phosphate buffer and Hatch's solution. Three extraction times were tested to determine the optimal time for a significant OPDTT using the dithiothreitol (DTT) method. The storage conditions of WFs after filter sampling such as duration, temperature and atmospheric conditions were investigated. The results indicate that experimental conditions can significantly affect the OPDTT and metal bioaccessibility analyses. Cr, Cu and Ni show higher solubility in Hatch's solution than in the phosphate buffer. Mn is highly sensitive to DTT and shows close solubility in the two fluids. An extraction time of 0.5 h in phosphate buffer allows a better sensitivity to OPDTT, probably by limiting complexations, interactions between metals and precipitation. Storage time and temperature can influence the physical or chemical evolution of the WFs, which can affect their OPDTT and Mn solubility. However, storage under N2(g) limits these changes. On-line measurements of OPDTT could provide an alternative to filter sampling to overcome these artifacts.

Abstract
Reducible metal oxide nanozymes (rNZs) are a subject of intense recent interest due to their catalytic nature, ease of synthesis, and complex surface character. Such materials contain surface sites which facilitate enzyme-mimetic reactions via substrate coordination and redox cycling. Further, these surface reactive sites are shown to be highly sensitive to stresses within the nanomaterial lattice, the physicochemical environment, and to processing conditions occurring as part of their syntheses. When administered in vivo, a complex protein corona binds to the surface, redefining its biological identity and subsequent interactions within the biological system. Catalytic activities of rNZs each deliver a differing impact on protein corona formation, its composition, and in turn, their recognition, and internalization by host cells. Improving the understanding of the precise principles that dominate rNZ surface-biomolecule adsorption raises the question of whether designer rNZs can be engineered to prevent corona formation, or indeed to produce "custom" protein coronas applied either in vitro, and preadministration, or formed immediately upon their exposure to body fluids. Here, fundamental surface chemistry processes and their implications in rNZ material performance are considered. In particular, material structures which inform component adsorption from the application environment, including substrates for enzyme-mimetic reactions are discussed.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GOX) has become attractive due to its unique physicochemical properties. This nanomaterial can associate with other dendrimers, making them more soluble and allowing better interaction with biomacromolecules. The present study aimed to investigate, by real-time microscopy, the behavior of human breast cancer cells exposed to particles of materials based on graphene oxide. The MCF-7 cell line was exposed to GOX, GOX associated with Polypropylenimine hexadecaamine Dendrimer, Generation 3.0-DAB-AM-16 (GOXD) and GOX associated with polypropyleneimine-PAMAM (GOXP) in the presence or absence of fetal bovine serum (FBS). GOX, GOXD and GOXP were taken up by the cells in clusters and then the clusters were fragmented into smaller ones inside the cells. Real-time microscopy showed that the presence of FBS in the culture medium could allow a more efficient internalization of graphene materials. After internalizing the materials, cells can redistribute the clumps to their daughter cells. In conclusion, the present study showed that the particles can adhere to the cell surface, favoring their internalization. The presence of FBS contributed to the formation of smaller aggregates of particles, avoiding the formation of large ones, and thus transmitted a more efficient internalization of the materials through the interaction of the particles with the cell membrane.

Abstract
The formation of a protein corona, where proteins spontaneously adhere to the surface of nanomaterials in biological environments, leads to changes in their physicochemical properties and subsequently affects their intended biomedical functionalities. Most current methods to study protein corona formation are ensemble-averaging and either require fluorescent labeling, washing steps, or are only applicable to specific types of particles. Here we introduce real-time all-optical nanoparticle analysis by scattering microscopy (RONAS) to track the formation of protein corona in full serum, at the single-particle level, without any labeling. RONAS uses optical scattering microscopy and enables real-time and in situ tracking of protein adsorption on metallic and dielectric nanoparticles with different geometries directly in blood serum. We analyzed the adsorbed protein mass, the affinity, and the kinetics of the protein adsorption at the single particle level. While there is a high degree of heterogeneity from particle to particle, the predominant factor in protein adsorption is surface chemistry rather than the underlying nanoparticle material or size. RONAS offers an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms related to protein coronas and, thus, enables the development of strategies to engineer efficient bionanomaterials.

Abstract
The adsorption of anti-Salmonella rabbit immunoglobulin (IgaR) on negatively charged polymer particles leading to the formation of immunolatex was studied using various techniques comprising atomic force microscopy (AFM) and laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV). Initially, the basic physicochemical properties of IgaR molecules and the particles, inter alia their electrophoretic mobilities, the zeta potentials and hydrodynamic diameters, were determined under different ionic strengths and pHs. Applying AFM, single immunoglobulin molecules adsorbed on mica were also imaged, which allowed to determine their size. The adsorption of the IgaR molecules on the particles leading to changes in their electrophoretic mobility was monitored in situ using the LDV method. The obtained results were interpreted applying a general electrokinetic model which yielded quantitative information about the molecule coverage on the particles. The obtained immunolatex was thoroughly characterized with respect to its acid-base properties and its stability upon storage. Notably, the developed procedure demonstrated better efficiency compared to commercially applied methods, characterized by a higher immunoglobulin consumption.

The D-amino acid oxidase-carbon nanotubes: evaluation of cytotoxicity and biocompatibility of a potential anticancer nanosystem. 3 Biotech 2023; 13:243. [PMID: 37346390 PMCID: PMC10279611 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-023-03568-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/23/2023] Open
Abstract
The 'enzyme prodrug therapy' represents a promising strategy to overcome limitations of current cancer treatments by the systemic administration of prodrugs, converted by a foreign enzyme into an active anticancer compound directly in tumor sites. One example is D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO), a dimeric flavoenzyme able to catalyze the oxidative deamination of D-amino acids with production of hydrogen peroxide, a reactive oxygen species (ROS), able to favor cancer cells death. A DAAO variant containing five aminoacidic substitutions (mDAAO) was demonstrated to possess a better therapeutic efficacy under low O2 concentration than wild-type DAAO (wtDAAO). Recently, aiming to design promising nanocarriers for DAAO, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were functionalized with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to reduce their tendency to aggregation and to improve their biocompatibility. Here, wtDAAO and mDAAO were adsorbed on PEGylated MWCNTs and their activity and cytotoxicity were tested. While PEG-MWCNTs-DAAOs have shown a higher activity than pristine MWCNTs-DAAO (independently on the DAAO variant used), PEG-MWCNTs-mDAAO showed a higher cytotoxicity than PEG-MWCNTs-wtDAAO at low O2 concentration. In order to evaluate the nanocarriers' biocompatibility, PEG-MWCNTs-DAAOs were incubated in human serum and the composition of protein corona was investigated via nLC-MS/MS, aiming to characterize both soft and hard coronas. The mDAAO variant has influenced the bio-corona composition in both number of proteins and presence of opsonins and dysopsonins: notably, the soft corona of PEG-MWCNTs-mDAAO contained less proteins and was more enriched in proteins able to inhibit the immune response than PEG-MWCNTs-wtDAAO. Considering the obtained results, the PEGylated MWCNTs conjugated with the mDAAO variant seems a promising candidate for a selective antitumor oxidative therapy: under anoxic-like conditions, this novel drug delivery system showed a remarkable cytotoxic effect controlled by the substrate addition, against different tumor cell lines, and a bio-corona composition devoted to prolong its blood circulation time, thus improving the drug's biodistribution.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent malignancy that affects a large percentage of the global population. The conventional treatments for CRC have a number of limitations. Nanoparticles have emerged as a promising cancer treatment method due to their ability to directly target cancer cells and regulate drug release, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy and minimizing side effects. This compilation examines the use of nanoparticles as drug delivery systems for CRC treatment. Different nanomaterials can be used to administer anticancer drugs, including polymeric nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, liposomes, and solid lipid nanoparticles. In addition, we discuss recent developments in nanoparticle preparation techniques, such as solvent evaporation, salting-out, ion gelation, and nanoprecipitation. These methods have demonstrated high efficacy in penetrating epithelial cells, a prerequisite for effective drug delivery. This article focuses on the various targeting mechanisms utilized by CRC-targeted nanoparticles and their recent advancements in this field. In addition, the review offers descriptive information regarding numerous nano-preparative procedures for colorectal cancer treatments. We also discuss the outlook for innovative therapeutic techniques in the management of CRC, including the potential application of nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery. The review concludes with a discussion of current nanotechnology patents and clinical studies used to target and diagnose CRC. The results of this investigation suggest that nanoparticles have great potential as a method of drug delivery for the treatment of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Although a wide variety of nanoparticles (NPs) have been engineered for use as disease markers or drug delivery agents, the number of nanomedicines in clinical use has hitherto remained small. A key obstacle in nanomedicine development is the lack of a deep mechanistic understanding of NP interactions in the bio-environment. Here, the focus is on the biomolecular adsorption layer (protein corona), which quickly enshrouds a pristine NP exposed to a biofluid and modifies the way the NP interacts with the bio-environment. After a brief introduction of NPs for nanomedicine, proteins, and their mutual interactions, research aimed at addressing fundamental properties of the protein corona, specifically its mono-/multilayer structure, reversibility and irreversibility, time dependence, as well as its role in NP agglomeration, is critically reviewed. It becomes quite evident that the knowledge of the protein corona is still fragmented, and conflicting results on fundamental issues call for further mechanistic studies. The article concludes with a discussion of future research directions that should be taken to advance the understanding of the protein corona around NPs. This knowledge will provide NP developers with the predictive power to account for these interactions in the design of efficacious nanomedicines.

Abstract
Microparticles of polyethylene and polypropylene are largely found in aquatic environments because they are the most produced and persistent plastic materials. Once in biological media, they are covered by a layer of molecules, the so-called corona, mostly composed of proteins. A yeast protein extract from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used as a protein system to observe interactions in complex biological media. Proteins, acting as surfactants and providing hydrophilic surfaces, allow the dispersion of highly hydrophobic particles in water and stabilize them. After 24 h, the microplastic quantity was up to 1 × 1011 particles per liter, whereas without protein, no particles remained in solution. Label-free imaging of the protein corona by synchrotron radiation deep UV fluorescence microscopy (SR-DUV) was performed. In situ images of the protein corona were obtained, and the adsorbed protein quantity, the coverage rate, and the corona heterogeneity were determined. The stability kinetics of the microplastic suspensions were measured by light transmission using a Turbiscan analyzer. Together, the microscopic and kinetics results demonstrate that the protein corona can very efficiently stabilize microplastics in solution provided that the protein corona quality is sufficient. Microplastic stability depends on different parameters such as the particle's intrinsic properties (size, density, hydrophobicity) and the protein corona formation that changes the particle wettability, electrostatic charge, and steric hindrance. By controlling these parameters with proteins, it becomes possible to keep microplastics in and out of solution, paving the way for applications in the field of microplastic pollution control and remediation.

Abstract
The adsorption of proteins on surfaces has been studied for a long time, but the relationship between the structural and functional properties of the adsorbed protein and the adsorption mechanism remains unclear. Using hemoglobin adsorbed on silica nanoparticles, we have previously shown that hemoglobin's affinity towards oxygen increases with adsorption. Nevertheless, it was also shown that there were no significant changes in the quaternary and secondary structures. In order to understand the change in activity, we decided in this work to focus on the active sites of hemoglobin, the heme and its iron. After measuring adsorption isotherms of porcine hemoglobin on Ludox silica nanoparticles, we analyzed the structural modifications of adsorbed hemoglobin by X-ray absorption spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectra in the Soret region. It was found that upon adsorption, there were modifications in the heme pocket environment due to changes in the angles of the heme vinyl functions. These alterations can explain the greater affinity observed.

Abstract
Adsorption of human serum albumin (HSA) molecules on negatively charged polystyrene microparticles was studied using the dynamic light scattering, the electrophoretic and the solution depletion methods involving atomic force microscopy. Initially, the physicochemical characteristics of the albumin comprising the hydrodynamic diameter, the zeta potential and the isoelectric point were determined as a function of pH. Analogous characteristics of the polymer particles were acquired, including their size and zeta potential. The formation of albumin corona on the particles was investigated in situ by electrophoretic mobility measurements. The size, stability and electrokinetic properties of the particles with the corona were also determined. The particle diameter was equal to 125 nm, which coincides with the size of the SARS-CoV-2 virion. The isoelectric point of the particles appeared at a pH of 5. The deposition kinetics of the particles was determined by atomic force microscopy (AFM) under diffusion and by quartz microbalance (QCM) under flow conditions. It was shown that the deposition rate at a gold sensor abruptly vanished with pH following the decrease in the zeta potential of the particles. It is postulated that the acquired results can be used as useful reference systems mimicking virus adsorption on abiotic surfaces.

Abstract
Nanoparticles represent a promising class of material for nanomedicine and molecular biosensing. The formation of a protein corona due to nonspecific particle-protein interactions is a determining factor for the biological fate of nanoparticles in vivo and strongly impacts the performance of nanoparticles when used as biosensors. Nonspecific interactions are usually highly heterogeneous, yet little is known about the heterogeneity of the protein corona that may lead to inter- and intraparticle differences in composition and protein distribution. Here, we present a super-resolution microscopic approach to study the protein corona on single silica nanoparticles and subsequent cellular interactions using multicolor stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy. We demonstrate that STED resolves structural features of protein corona on single particles including the distribution on the particle surface and the degree of protein internalization in porous particles. Using multicolor measurements of multiple labeled protein species, we determine the composition of the protein corona at the single-particle level. We quantify particle-to-particle differences in the composition and find that the composition is considerably influenced by the particle geometry. In a subsequent cellular uptake measurement, we demonstrate multicolor STED of protein corona on single particles internalized by cells. Our study shows that STED microscopy opens the window toward mechanistic understanding of protein coronas and aids in the rational design of nanoparticles as nanomedicines and biosensors.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) and 3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenylalanine (L-Dopa or DPA), a marker and medicine for the neurological disorder Parkinson's disease (PD), lead to the formation of polymeric fluorescent nanoparticles (F-Poly NPs or F-NPs or simply, NPs). The interaction study between proteins and NPs shows prominent interaction with strong specificity toward albumin type proteins for DPA derived and mixed NPs. Furthermore, encapsulation of the anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox) inside the NP-protein conjugates results in excellent white light emission with pronounced specificity toward albumin proteins for F-PDPA and F-Mix NPs. Finally, the use of BSA protein fibril resulting in strong binding with NPs along with Dox assisted white light emission has also been studied.

Abstract
An inconvenient hurdle in the practice of nanomedicine is the protein corona, a spontaneous collection of biomolecular species by nanoparticles in living systems. The protein corona is dynamic in composition and may entail improved water suspendability and compromised delivery and targeting to the nanoparticles. How much of this nonspecific protein ensemble is determined by the chemistry of the nanoparticle core and its surface functionalization, and how much of this entity is dictated by the biological environments that vary spatiotemporally in vivo? How do we "live with" and exploit the protein corona without significantly sacrificing the efficacy of nanomedicines in diagnosing and curing human diseases? This article discusses the chemical and biophysical signatures of the protein corona and ponders challenges ahead for the field of nanomedicine.

Abstract
The therapeutics based on nanoparticles (NPs) are considered as the promising strategy for tumor detection and treatment. However, one of the most challenges is the adsorption of biomolecules on NPs after their exposition to biological medium, leading unpredictable in vivo behaviors. The interactions caused by protein corona (PC) will influence the biological fate of NPs in either negative or positive ways, including (i) blood circulation, accumulation and penetration of NPs at targeting sites, and further cellular uptake in tumor targeting delivery; (ii) interactions between NPs and receptors on immune cells for immunotherapy. Besides, PC on NPs could be utilized as new biomarker in tumor diagnosis by identifying the minor change of protein concentration led by tumor growth and invasion in blood. Herein, the mechanisms of these PC-mediated effects will be introduced. Moreover, the recent advances about the strategies will be reviewed to reduce negative effects caused by PC and/or utilize positive effects of PC on tumor targeting, immunotherapy and diagnosis, aiming to provide a reasonable perspective to recognize PC with their applications.

Abstract
Nanomedicine has a great potential to revolutionize the therapeutic landscape. However, up-to-date results obtained from in vitro experiments predict the in vivo performance of nanoparticles weakly or not at all. There is a need for in vitro experiments that better resemble the in vivo reality. As a result, animal experiments can be reduced, and potent in vivo candidates will not be missed. It is important to gain a deeper knowledge about nanoparticle characteristics in physiological environment. In this context, the protein corona plays a crucial role. Its formation process including driving forces, kinetics, and influencing factors has to be explored in more detail. There exist different methods for the investigation of the protein corona and its impact on physico-chemical and biological properties of nanoparticles, which are compiled and critically reflected in this review article. The obtained information about the protein corona can be exploited to optimize nanoparticles for in vivo application. Still the translation from in vitro to in vivo remains challenging. Functional in vitro screening under physiological conditions such as in full serum, in 3D multicellular spheroids/organoids, or under flow conditions is recommended. Innovative in vivo screening using barcoded nanoparticles can simultaneously test more than hundred samples regarding biodistribution and functional delivery within a single mouse.

Abstract
This Review aims to provide a systematic analysis of the literature regarding ongoing debates in protein corona research. Our goal is to portray the current understanding of two fundamental and debated characteristics of the protein corona, namely, the formation of mono- or multilayers of proteins and their binding (ir)reversibility. The statistical analysis we perform reveals that these characterisitics are strongly correlated to some physicochemical factors of the NP-protein system (particle size, bulk material, protein type), whereas the technique of investigation or the type of measurement (in situ or ex situ) do not impact the results, unlike commonly assumed. Regarding the binding reversibility, the experimental design (either dilution or competition experiments) is also shown to be a key factor, probably due to nontrivial protein binding mechanisms, which could explain the paradoxical phenomena reported in the literature. Overall, we suggest that to truly predict and control the protein corona, future efforts should be directed toward the mechanistic aspects of protein adsorption.

Abstract
Small interfering RNAs (siRNA) are attractive and powerful tools to inhibit the expression of a targeted gene. However, their extreme hydrophilicities combined with a negative charge and short plasma half-life counteract their use as therapeutics. Previously, we chemically linked siRNA to squalene (SQ) which self-assembled as nanoparticles (NPs) with pharmacological efficiency in cancers and recently in a hereditary neuropathy. In order to understand the siRNA-SQ NP assembly and fate once intravenously injected, the present study detailed characterization of siRNA-SQ NP structure and its interaction with serum components. From SAXS and SANS analysis, we propose that the siRNA-SQ bioconjugate self-assembled as 11-nm diameter supramolecular assemblies, which are connected one to another to form spherical nanoparticles of around 130-nm diameter. The siRNA-SQ NPs were stable in biological media and interacted with serum components, notably with albumin and LDL. The high specificity of siRNA to decrease or normalize gene expression and the high colloidal stability when encapsulated into squalene nanoparticles offer promising targeted therapy with wide applications for pathologies with gene expression dysregulation.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) provide a novel approach for protein enrichment and analysis due to their protein adsorption properties, forming a so called protein corona. This corona can significantly influence the protein's structure and characteristics, hindering their identification in situ. Dissociation is an important solution to analyze and identify the composition of protein coronas. However, a comprehensive picture of adsorbed protein dissociation is lacking. In this study, the protein dissociation from the protein corona and influencing factors were investigated on the basis of the formation mechanism and time evolution. Temperature and cysteine are the key factors influencing protein dissociation by altering the protein's binding ability. The results showed that half Au–S formation time is an important time point for thio-protein dissociation by the method of high speed centrifugation. When incubated for longer than that time, the thio-protein located in the hard corona could only be separated by β-mercaptoethanol replacement under analytical ultracentrifugation. However, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed significant changes that occurred in βlg's secondary structure after ultracentrifugation. The Au–S bond formation time offers the potential to define the protein enrichment time of AuNPs. A protein corona changes protein's structure and characteristics, hindering their identification in situ. Dissociation is an important solution to identify their composition.![]()

Abstract
Multiple international agencies have recently raised environmental and health concerns regarding plastics in nanoforms (nanoplastics), but there is insufficient knowledge of their properties to allow for an accurate risk assessment to be conducted and any risks managed. For this reason, research into the toxicity of nanoplastics has focused strongly on documenting their impacts on biological organisms. One scope of this review is to summarise the recent findings on the adverse effects on biological organisms and strategies which can be adopted to advance our understanding of nanoplastic properties and their toxicity. Specifically, a mechanistic approach has already been employed in nanotoxicology, which focuses on the cause-and-effect relationships to establish a tool that predicts the biological impacts based on nanoparticle characteristics. Identifying the chemical and biological bases behind the observed biological effects (such as in vitro cellular response) is a major challenge, due to the intricate nature of nanoparticle-biological molecule complexes and an unawareness of their interaction with other biological targets, particularly at interfacial level. An exemplary case includes protein corona formation and ecological molecule corona (eco-corona) for nanoplastics. Therefore, the second scope of this review is to discuss recent findings and importance of (for both non-plastic and plastic nanoparticles) coronae formation and structure. Finally, we discuss the opportunities provided by model system approaches (model protein corona and lipid bilayer) to deepen the understanding of the above-mentioned perspectives, and corroborate the findings from in vitro experiments.

Abstract
Background Biostimulation and toxicity constitute the continuous response spectrum of a biological organism against physicochemical or biological factors. Among the environmental agents capable of inducing biostimulation or toxicity are nanomaterials. On the < 100 nm scale, nanomaterials impose both physical effects resulting from the core’s and corona’s surface properties, and chemical effects related to the core’s composition and the corona’s functional groups. Aim of Review The purpose of this review is to describe the impact of nanomaterials on microorganisms and plants, considering two of the most studied physical and chemical properties: size and concentration. Key Scientific Concepts of Review Using a graphical analysis, the presence of a continuous biostimulation-toxicity spectrum is shown considering different biological responses. In microorganisms, the results showed high susceptibility to nanomaterials. Simultaneously, in plants, a hormetic response was found related to nanomaterials concentration and, in a few cases, a positive response in the smaller nanomaterials when these were applied at a higher level. With the above, it is concluded that: (1) microorganisms are more susceptible to nanomaterials than plants, (2) practically all nanomaterials seem to induce responses from biostimulation to toxicity in plants, and (3) the kind of response observed will depend in a complex way on the nanomateriaĺs physical and chemical characteristics, of the biological species with which they interact, and of the form and route of application and on the nature of the medium -soil, soil pore water, and biological surfaces- where the interaction occurs.

Abstract
The adsorption of proteins from aqueous medium leads to the formation of protein corona on nanoparticles. The formation of protein corona is governed by a complex interplay of protein-particle and protein-protein interactions, such as electrostatics, van der Waals, hydrophobic, hydrogen bonding, and solvation. The experimental parameters influencing these interactions, and thus governing the protein corona formation on nanoparticles, are currently poorly understood. This lack of understanding is due to the complexity in the surface charge distribution and anisotropic shape of the protein molecules. Here, we investigate the effect of pH and salinity on the characteristics of corona formed by myoglobin on silica nanoparticles. We experimentally measure and theoretically model the adsorption isotherms of myoglobin binding to silica nanoparticles. By combining adsorption studies with surface electrostatic mapping of myoglobin, we demonstrate that a monolayered hard corona is formed in low salinity dispersions, which transforms into a multilayered hard + soft corona upon the addition of salt. We attribute the observed changes in protein adsorption behavior with increasing pH and salinity to the change in electrostatic interactions and surface charge regulation effects. This study provides insights into the mechanism of protein adsorption and corona formation on nanoparticles, which would guide future studies on optimizing nanoparticle design for maximum functional benefits and minimum toxicity.

Abstract
Negatively charged Ludox silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) form a complex with atelocollagen (AC) in acidic buffers (pH = 4 or 3). AC is a low-immunogenic derivative of collagen obtained by the removal of N- and C-terminal telopeptide components. Mixed solutions of negatively charged SiNPs and AC were turbid, while positively charged SiNPs (Ludox CL) did not form a complex with AC in pH 4 buffer, indicating that electrostatic attraction is the dominant force to form the complex. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and circular dichroism (CD) measurements were made for AC and Ludox LS (or CL) solutions in acetate buffer (pH 4.0) and citrate buffer (pH 3.0). The CD data showed that the stability of the triple helical structure of AC in the buffers is not affected by the complexation. The resulting complex consisting of triple helical AC and SiNPs did not influence the SAXS profile except for the lowest q region investigated. On the contrary, different scattering profiles were observed for the single chain AC and SiNP mixture indicating densely packed SiNPs in the complex. This scattering behavior was fairly explained in terms of the sticky hard sphere model (SHSM). This AC conformation-dependent complexation may be because of the hydrogen bonding interaction between the single chain AC and SiNPs. The temperature-induced change of the complex formation can be applied for thermoresponsive hybrid materials.

Abstract
Nanomedicine is an interdisciplinary field of research, comprising science, engineering, and medicine. Many are the clinical applications of nanomedicine, such as molecular imaging, medical diagnostics, targeted therapy, and image-guided surgery. Despite major advances during the past 20 years, many efforts must be done to understand the complex behavior of nanoparticles (NPs) under physiological conditions, the kinetic and thermodynamic principles, involved in the rational design of NP. Once administrated in physiological environment, NPs interact with biomolecules and they are surrounded by protein corona (PC) or biocorona. PC can trigger an immune response, affecting NPs toxicity and targeting capacity. This review aims to provide a detailed description of biocorona and of parameters that are able to control PC formation and composition. Indeed, the review provides an overview about the role of PC in the modulation of both cytotoxicity and immune response as well as in the control of targeting capacity.

Abstract
Few experimental techniques allow the analysis of the protein corona in situ. As a result, little is known on the effects of nanoparticles on weakly bound proteins that form the soft corona. Despite its biological importance, our understanding of the molecular bases driving its formation is limited. Here, we show that hemoglobin can form either a hard or a soft corona on silica nanoparticles depending on the pH conditions. Using cryoTEM and synchrotron-radiation circular dichroism, we show that nanoparticles alter the structure and the stability of weakly bound proteins in situ. Molecular dynamics simulation identified the structural elements driving protein-nanoparticle interaction. Based on thermodynamic analysis, we show that nanoparticles stabilize partially unfolded protein conformations by enthalpy-driven molecular interactions. We suggest that nanoparticles alter weakly bound proteins by shifting the equilibrium toward the unfolded states at physiological temperature. We show that the classical approach based on nanoparticle separation from the biological medium fails to detect destabilization of weakly bound proteins, and therefore cannot be used to fully predict the biological effects of nanomaterials in situ.

Abstract
Protein adsorption on nanoparticles is an important field of study, particularly with regard to nanomedicine and nanotoxicology. Many factors can influence the composition and structure of the layer(s) of adsorbed proteins, the so-called protein corona. However, the role of protein size has not been specifically investigated, although some evidence has indicated its potential important role in corona composition and structure. To assess the role of protein size, we studied the interactions of hemoproteins (spanning a large size range) with monodisperse silica nanoparticles. We combined various techniques-adsorption isotherms, isothermal titration calorimetry, circular dichroism, and transmission electron cryomicroscopy-to address this issue. Overall, the results show that small proteins behaved as typical model proteins, forming homogeneous monolayers on the nanoparticle surface (protein corona). Their adsorption is purely enthalpy-driven, with subtle structural changes. In contrast, large proteins interact with nanoparticles via entropy-driven mechanisms. Their structure is completely preserved during adsorption, and any given protein can directly bind to several nanoparticles, forming bridges in these newly formed protein-nanoparticle assemblies. Protein size is clearly an overlooked factor that should be integrated into proteomics and toxicological studies.

Abstract
In the present work, nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (NrGO) was synthesized via a hydrothermal treatment of graphene oxide (GO) in the presence of urea. Gold nanoparticles (Au(0) NPs) were immobilized over the surface of NrGO (Au(0)-NrGO). Characterization of the Au(0)-NrGO nanocomposite via FT-IR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, elemental mapping and XPS revealed the doping of N atoms during the reduction of GO. XRD and XPS studies confirmed the presence of Au(0) NPs and EDS analysis showed a 4.51 wt% loading of Au NPs in the Au(0)-NrGO nanocomposite. The morphology of Au(0)-NrGO was explored by SEM and TEM, which showed the presence of spherical Au metal NPs uniformly immobilized on the surface of NrGO. Further, studies on lysozyme (Lys) in the presence of Au(0)-NrGO by UV-visible, fluorescence, and circular dichroism spectroscopy revealed a conformational change in Lys and electrostatic interaction between Lys and Au(0)-NrGO. The DLS result showed an enhancement in the size of the Au(0)-NrGO and Lys conjugates. The Au(0)-NrGO-induced conformational changes in the structure of Lys resulted in a significant decrease in its activity at a certain concentration of Au(0)-NrGO. Moreover, the results showed that Lys favorably binds with the surface of Au(0)-NrGO, resulting in the formation of 2-D scaffolds possibly due to electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions, H-bonding, and interactions between the AuNPs and sulfur-containing amino acid residues of Lys. SEM exhibited the formation of conjugates in the form of 2-D scaffolds due to the biomolecular interactions between Lys and Au(0)-NrGO. The TEM studies revealed that Lys agglomerated around the Au(0) NPs immobilized on the surface of NrGO, which suggests the formation of a protein corona (PC) around the AuNPs. Furthermore, the favorable Au(0) NP-sulphur (PC) interaction was confirmed by the disappearance of the S-S stretching band in the Raman spectra. Overall, the results obtained provide insight into the nano-bio interface and formation of Au(0) NP-PC, which can be used for bioinspired applications, such as biosensing and imaging and the development of advanced functional Au NPs.

Abstract
Physiochemical properties of engineered nanoparticles (NPs) play a vital role in nano-bio interactions, which are critical for nanotoxicity and nanomedicine research. To understand the effects of NP hydrophobicity on the formation of the protein corona, we synthesized four gold NPs with a continuous change in hydrophobicity ranging from -2.6 to 2.4. Hydrophobic NPs adsorbed 2.1-fold proteins compared to hydrophilic ones. Proteins with small molecular weights (<50 kDa) and negatively charge (PI < 7) constituted the majority of the protein corona, especially for hydrophobic NPs. Moreover, proteins preferred binding to hydrophilic NPs (vitronectin and antithrombin III), hydrophobic NPs (serum albumin and hemoglobin fetal subunit beta), and medium hydrophobic NPs (talin 1 and prothrombin) were identified. Besides, proteins such as apolipoprotein bound to all NPs, did not show surface preference. We also found that there was a dynamic exchange between hard protein corona and solution proteins. Because of such dynamic exchanges, protein-bound NPs could expose their surface in biological systems. Hydrophilic NPs exhibited higher protein exchange rate than hydrophobic NPs. Above understandings have improved our capabilities to modulate protein corona formation by controlling surface chemistry of NPs. These will also help modulate nanotoxicity and develop better nanomedcines.

Abstract
Biomolecules, and particularly proteins, bind on nanoparticle (NP) surfaces to form the so-called protein corona. It is accepted that the corona drives the biological distribution and toxicity of NPs. Here, the corona composition and structure were studied using silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) of different sizes interacting with soluble yeast protein extracts. Adsorption isotherms showed that the amount of adsorbed proteins varied greatly upon NP size with large NPs having more adsorbed proteins per surface unit. The protein corona composition was studied using a large-scale label-free proteomic approach, combined with statistical and regression analyses. Most of the proteins adsorbed on the NPs were the same, regardless of the size of the NPs. To go beyond, the protein physicochemical parameters relevant for the adsorption were studied: electrostatic interactions and disordered regions are the main driving forces for the adsorption on SiNPs but polypeptide sequence length seems to be an important factor as well. This article demonstrates that curvature effects exhibited using model proteins are not determining factors for the corona composition on SiNPs, when dealing with complex biological media.
