Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers in women. Chemotherapy continues to be the treatment of choice for clinically combating it. Nevertheless, the chemotherapy process is frequently hindered by multidrug resistance, thereby impacting the effectiveness of the treatment. Multidrug resistance (MDR) refers to the phenomenon in which malignant tumour cells develop resistance to anticancer drugs after one single exposure. It can occur with a broad range of chemotherapeutic drugs with distinct chemical structures and mechanisms of action, and it is one of the major causes of treatment failure and disease relapse. Research has long been focused on overcoming MDR by using multiple drug combinations, but this approach is often associated with serious side effects. Therefore, there is a pressing need for in-depth research into the mechanisms of MDR, as well as the development of new drugs to reverse MDR and improve the efficacy of breast cancer chemotherapy. This article reviews the mechanisms of multidrug resistance and explores the application of nano-drug delivery system (NDDS) to overcome MDR in breast cancer. The aim is to offer a valuable reference for further research endeavours.

Abstract
Mild photothermal therapy (PTT) shows the potential for chemosensitization by tumor-localized P-glycoprotein (P-gp) modulation. However, conventional mild PTT struggles with real-time uniform temperature control, obscuring the temperature-performance relationship and resulting in thermal damage. Besides, the time-performance relationship and the underlying mechanism of mild PTT-mediated P-gp reversal remains elusive. Herein, we developed a temperature self-limiting lipid nanosystem (RFE@PD) that integrated a reversible organic heat generator (metal-phenolic complexes) and metal chelator (deferiprone, DFP) encapsulated phase change material. Upon NIR irradiation, RFE@PD released DFP for blocking ligand-metal charge transfer to self-limit temperature below 45 °C, and rapidly reduced P-gp within 3 h via Ubiquitin-proteasome degradation. Consequently, the DOX·HCl-loaded thermo-chemotherapeutic lipid nanosystem (RFE@PD-DOX) led to dramatically improved drug accumulation and 5-fold chemosensitization in MCF-7/ADR tumor models by synchronizing P-gp reversal and drug pulse liberation, achieving a tumor inhibition ratio of 82.42%. This lipid nanosystem integrated with "intrinsic temperature-control" and "temperature-responsive pulse release" casts new light on MDR tumor therapy.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is an important cancer treatment modality, but the clinical utility of chemotherapeutics is limited by their toxic side effects, inadequate distribution and insufficient intracellular concentrations. Nanodrug delivery systems (NDDSs) have shown significant advantages in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Variable NDDSs that respond to endogenous and exogenous triggers have attracted much research interest. Here, we summarized nanomaterials commonly used for tumor therapy, such as peptides, liposomes, and carbon nanotubes, as well as the responses of NDDSs to pH, enzymes, magnetic fields, light, and multiple stimuli. Specifically, well-designed NDDSs can change in size or morphology or rupture when induced by one or more stimuli. The varying responses of NDDSs to stimulation contribute to the molecular design and development of novel NDDSs, providing new ideas for improving drug penetration and accumulation, inhibiting tumor resistance and metastasis, and enhancing immunotherapy.

Abstract
Boron nitride nanomaterials are being increasingly recognized as vehicles for cancer drug delivery that increase drug loading and control drug release because of their excellent physicochemical properties and biocompatibility. However, these nanoparticles are often cleared rapidly by the immune system and have poor tumor targeting effects. As a result, biomimetic nanotechnology has emerged to address these challenges in recent times. Cell-derived biomimetic carriers have the characteristics of good biocompatibility, long circulation time, and strong targeting ability. Here, we report a biomimetic nanoplatform (CM@BN/DOX) prepared by encapsulating boron nitride nanoparticles (BN) and doxorubicin (DOX) together using cancer cell membrane (CCM) for targeted drug delivery and tumor therapy. The CM@BN/DOX nanoparticles (NPs) were able to target cancer cells of the same type on its own initiative through homologous targeting of cancer cell membranes. This led to a remarkable increase in cellular uptake. In vitro simulation of an acidic tumor microenvironment could effectively promote drug release from CM@BN/DOX. Furthermore, the CM@BN/DOX complex exhibited an excellent inhibitory effect against homotypic cancer cells. These findings suggest that CM@BN/DOX are promising in targeted drug delivery and potentially personalized therapy against their homologous tumor.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) hinders treatment efficacy in cancer therapy. One typical mechanism contributing to MDR is the overexpression of permeability-glycoprotein (P-gp) encoded by ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1). Basic helix-loop-helix family member e40 (BHLHE40) is a well-known transcription factor that has pleiotropic effects including the regulation of cancer-related processes. However, whether BHLHE40 regulates MDR is still unknown. Chromatin immunoprecipitation-seq study revealed BHLHE40 occupancy in the promoter of ABCB1 gene. Adriamycin (ADM)-resistant human chronic myeloid leukemia cells (K562/A) and human breast cancer cells (MCF-7/A) were established. BHLHE40 expression was downregulated in the ADM-resistant cell lines. Overexpression of BHLHE40 resensitized resistant cells to ADM, promoted cell apoptosis in vitro and suppressed tumor growth in vivo, whereas BHLHE40 knockdown induced resistance to ADM in parental cells. Moreover, we found that BHLHE40 regulated drug resistance by directly binding to the ABCB1 promoter (-1605 to -1597) and inactivating its transcription. In consistence, the expression of BHLHE40 was negatively correlated with ABCB1 in various cancer cells, while positively with cancer cell chemosensitivity and better prognosis of patients with breast cancer. The study reveals the role of BHLHE40 as a transcriptional suppressor on the expression of ABCB1, major ABC transporter in chemoresistance. The findings extend the function of BHLHE40 in tumor progression and provides a novel mechanism for the reversal of multidrug resistance.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is currently a big challenge in cancer therapy and limits its success in several patients. Tumors use the MDR mechanisms to colonize the host and reduce the efficacy of chemotherapeutics that are injected as single agents or combinations. MDR mechanisms are responsible for inactivation of drugs and formbiological barriers in cancer like the drug efflux pumps, aberrant extracellular matrix, hypoxic areas, altered cell death mechanisms, etc. Nanocarriers have some potential to overcome these barriers and improve the efficacy of chemotherapeutics. In fact, they are versatile and can deliver natural and synthetic biomolecules, as well as RNAi/DNAi, thus providing a controlled release of drugs and a synergistic effect in tumor tissues. Biocompatible and safe multifunctional biopolymers, with or without specific targeting molecules, modify the surface and interface properties of nanocarriers. These modifications affect the interaction of nanocarriers with cellular models as well as the selection of suitable models for in vitro experiments. MDR cancer cells, and particularly their 2D and 3D models, in combination with anatomical and physiological structures of tumor tissues, can boost the design and preparation of nanomedicines for anticancer therapy. 2D and 3D cancer cell cultures are suitable models to study the interaction, internalization, and efficacy of nanocarriers, the mechanisms of MDR in cancer cells and tissues, and they are used to tailor a personalized medicine and improve the efficacy of anticancer treatment in patients. The description of molecular mechanisms and physio-pathological pathways of these models further allow the design of nanomedicine that can efficiently overcome biological barriers involved in MDR and test the activity of nanocarriers in 2D and 3D models of MDR cancer cells.

Abstract
The residual and scattered small tumor tissue or cells after surgery are the main reason for tumor recurrence. Chemotherapy has a powerful ability to eradicate tumors but always accompanied by serious side effects. In this work, tissue-affinity mercapto gelatin (GelS) and dopamine-modified hyaluronic acid (HAD) were employed to fabricate a hybridized cross-linked hydrogel scaffold (HG) by multiple chemical reactions, which could integrate the doxorubicin (DOX) loaded reduction-responsive nano-micelle (PP/DOX) into this scaffold via click reaction to obtain the bioabsorbable nano-micelle hybridized hydrogel scaffold (HGMP). With the degradation of HGMP, PP/DOX was slowly released and formed targeted PP/DOX with degraded gelatin fragments as target molecules, which increased the intracellular accumulation, and inhibited the aggregation of B16F10 cells in vitro. In mouse models, HGMP absorbed the scattered B16F10 cells and released targeted PP/DOX to suppress tumorigenesis. For another, implantation of HGMP at the surgical site reduced the recurrence rate of postoperative melanoma and inhibited the growth of recurrent tumors. Meanwhile, HGMP significantly relieved the damage of free DOX to hair follicle tissue. This bioabsorbable nano-micelle hybridized hydrogel scaffold provided a valuable strategy for adjuvant therapy after tumor surgery.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a key role in signal transduction pathways associated with cell proliferation, growth, and survival. Its overexpression and aberrant activation in malignancy correlate with poor prognosis and short survival. Targeting inhibition of EGFR by small-molecular tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is emerging as an important treatment model besides of chemotherapy, greatly reshaping the landscape of cancer therapy. However, they are still challenged by the off-targeted toxicity, relatively limited cancer types, and drug resistance after long-term therapy. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of oral, pulmonary, and injectable drug delivery systems for enhanced and targeting TKI delivery to tumors and reduced side effects. Importantly, EGFR-TKI-based combination therapies not only greatly broaden the applicable cancer types of EGFR-TKI but also significantly improve the anticancer effect. The mechanisms of TKI resistance are summarized, and current strategies to overcome TKI resistance as well as the application of TKI in reversing chemotherapy resistance are discussed. Finally, we provide a perspective on the future research of EGFR-TKI-based cancer therapy.

Inside-out extracellular vesicles-like biomimetic magnetic nanoparticles for efficient screening P-Glycoprotein inhibitors to overcome cancer multidrug resistance. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 222:113134. [PMID: 36630772 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113134] [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: 11/19/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 01/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
The discovery of P-Glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors to block chemotherapy drugs efflux is considered an attractive treatment strategy for overcoming cancer multidrug resistance (MDR). Cell membrane biomimetic platform has emerged as a promising candidate method for screening small molecule P-gp inhibitors from natural products. However, randomly oriented cell membrane coating does not guarantee the inward-opening conformation of P-gp, limiting the precise screening of P-gp inhibitors. Herein, inside-out orientation extracellular vesicles camouflaged magnetic nanoparticles (IOVMNPs) were prepared to discover P-gp inhibitors with low toxicity and high efficiency from natural products. The orientation of extracellular vesicles on the surface of IOVMNPs was rigorously confirmed by immunogold electron microscopy and sialic acid quantification assay. Finally, two potential P-gp inhibitors, honokiol and magnolol, were captured by obtained IOVMNPs. The effect of MDR reversal in combination with chemotherapy drugs was further verified by pharmacological activity experiments. The inside-out orientation extracellular vesicles encapsulation strategy provides an effective tool for the discovery of novel P-gp inhibitors from nature products, thus further extending the application field of orientation assembly cell membrane biomimetic magnetic nanoparticles. This inside-out extracellular vesicles coating also proposes a new concept for the assembly of cell membrane biomimetic platform.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer cells is a substantial limitation to the success of chemotherapy. The spatio-temporal controlled gene-chemo therapeutics strategy is expected to surmount the limitation of MDR. We herein develop a DNA nanocomplex to achieve intrinsic stimuli-responsive spatio-temporal controlled gene-chemo drug delivery, overcoming MDR of cancer cells. The drug delivery system consisted of a restriction endonuclease (HhaI)-degradable DNA hydrogel layer, an acid-responsive HhaI nanocapsule (HhaI-GDA), and a glutathione (GSH)-sensitive dendritic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticle (DMON). The DNA hydrogel layer consisted of a DNA network formed through interfacial assembly from ultralong single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), which contained multiple tandem repeated antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs). DMON had dendritic mesopores for enhanced loading of anti-tumor drug doxorubicin (DOX). Upon cellular uptake of the DNA nanocomplex, the GDA shell was degraded at a lysosomal microenvironment, and the activity of HhaI was activated, leading to accurate cleavage ultralong ssDNA to release ASO as gene drugs, which down-regulated the expression of MDR-related P glycoprotein. Spatio-temporal sequentially, DMONs containing disulfide bonds responded to intracellular GSH to release DOX for enhanced chemotherapy.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) of tumors is one of the clinical direct reasons for chemotherapy failure. MDR directly leads to tumor recurrence and metastasis, with extremely grievous mortality. Engineering a novel nano-delivery system for the treatment of MDR tumors has become an important part of nanotechnology. Herein, this review will take those different mechanisms of MDR as the classification standards and systematically summarize the advances in nanotechnology targeting different mechanisms of MDR in recent years. However, it still needs to be seriously considered that there are still some thorny problems in the application of the nano-delivery system against MDR tumors, including the excessive utilization of carrier materials, low drug-loading capacity, relatively narrow targeting mechanism, and so on. It is hoped that through the continuous development of nanotechnology, nano-delivery systems with more universal uses and a simpler preparation process can be obtained, for achieving the goal of defeating cancer MDR and accelerating clinical transformation.

Abstract
In the last few decades, the vast potential of nanomaterials for biomedical and healthcare applications has been extensively investigated. Several case studies demonstrated that nanomaterials can offer solutions to the current challenges of raw materials in the biomedical and healthcare fields. This review describes the different nanoparticles and nanostructured material synthesis approaches and presents some emerging biomedical, healthcare, and agro-food applications. This review focuses on various nanomaterial types (e.g., spherical, nanorods, nanotubes, nanosheets, nanofibers, core-shell, and mesoporous) that can be synthesized from different raw materials and their emerging applications in bioimaging, biosensing, drug delivery, tissue engineering, antimicrobial, and agro-foods. Depending on their morphology (e.g., size, aspect ratio, geometry, porosity), nanomaterials can be used as formulation modifiers, moisturizers, nanofillers, additives, membranes, and films. As toxicological assessment depends on sizes and morphologies, stringent regulation is needed from the testing of efficient nanomaterials dosages. The challenges and perspectives for an industrial breakthrough of nanomaterials are related to the optimization of production and processing conditions.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the second most common cancer in women globally after lung cancer. Presently, the most important approach for BC treatment consists of surgery, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The latter therapeutic methods are often unsuccessful in the treatment of BC because of their various side effects and the damage incurred to healthy tissues and organs. Currently, numerous nanoparticles (NPs) have been identified and synthesized to selectively target BC cells without causing any impairments to the adjacent normal tissues or organs. Based on an exploratory study, this comprehensive review aims to provide information on engineered NPs and their payloads as promising tools in the treatment of BC. Therapeutic drugs or natural bioactive compounds generally incorporate engineered NPs of ideal sizes and shapes to enhance their solubility, circulatory half-life, and biodistribution, while reducing their side effects and immunogenicity. Furthermore, ligands such as peptides, antibodies, and nucleic acids on the surface of NPs precisely target BC cells. Studies on the synthesis of engineered NPs and their impact on BC were obtained from PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. This review provides insights on the importance of engineered NPs and their methodology for validation as a next-generation platform with preventive and therapeutic effects against BC.

Abstract
The emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR) in malignant tumors is the primary reason for invalid chemotherapy. Antitumor drugs are often adversely affected by the MDR of tumor cells. Treatments using conventional drugs, which have specific drug targets, hardly regulate the complex signaling pathway of MDR cells because of the complex formation mechanism of MDR. However, natural products have positive advantages, such as high efficiency, low toxicity, and ability to target multiple mechanism pathways associated with MDR. Natural products, as MDR reversal agents, synergize with chemotherapeutics and enhance the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapeutics, and the co-delivery of natural products and antitumor drugs with nanocarriers maximizes the synergistic effects against MDR in tumor cells. This review summarizes the molecular mechanisms of MDR, the advantages of natural products combined with chemotherapeutics in offsetting complicated MDR mechanisms, and the types and mechanisms of natural products that are potential MDR reversal modulators. Meanwhile, aiming at the low bioavailability of cocktail combined natural products and chemotherapeutic in vivo, the advantages of nanoplatform-based co-delivery system and recent research developments are illustrated on the basis of our previous research. Finally, prospective horizons are analyzed, which are expected to considerably improve the nano-co-delivery of natural products and chemotherapeutic systems for MDR reversal in cancer.

Abstract
Recent advances in treatment have transformed the management of cancer. Despite these advances, cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of death in cancer survivors. Cardio-oncology has recently evolved as a subspecialty to prevent, diagnose, and manage cardiovascular side effects of antineoplastic therapy. An emphasis on optimal management of comorbidities and close attention to drug interactions are important in cardio-oncologic care. With interdisciplinary collaboration among oncologists, cardiologists, and pharmacists, there is potential to prevent and reduce drug-related toxicities of treatments. The cytochrome P450 (CYP450) family of enzymes and the P-glycoprotein (P-g) transporter play a crucial role in drug metabolism and drug resistance. Here we discuss the role of CYP450 and P-g in drug interactions in the field of cardio-oncology, provide an overview of the cardiotoxicity of a spectrum of cancer agents, highlight the role of precision medicine, and encourage a multidisciplinary treatment approach for patients with cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Nanomaterial-based drug-delivery systems allowing for effective targeted delivery of smallmolecule chemodrugs to tumors have revolutionized cancer therapy. Recently, as novel nanomaterials with outstanding physicochemical properties, boron nitride nanospheres (BNs) have emerged as a promising candidate for drug delivery. However, poor dispersity and lack of tumor targeting severely limit further applications. In this study, cancer cell-membrane biomimetic BNs were designed for targeted anticancer drug delivery. METHODS Cell membrane extracted from HeLa cells (HM) was used to encapsulate BNs by physical extrusion. Doxorubicin (Dox) was loaded onto HM-BNs as a model drug. RESULTS The cell-membrane coating endowed the BNs with excellent dispersibility and cytocompatibility. The drug-release profile showed that the Dox@HM-BNs responded to acid pH, resulting in rapid Dox release. Enhanced cellular uptake of Dox@HM-BNs by HeLa cells was revealed because of the homologous targeting of cancer-cell membranes. CCK8 and live/dead assays showed that Dox@HM-BNs had stronger cytotoxicity against HeLa cells, due to self-selective cellular uptake. Finally, antitumor investigation using the HeLa tumor model demonstrated that Dox@HM-BNs possessed much more efficient tumor inhibition than free Dox or Dox@BNs. CONCLUSION These findings indicate that the newly developed HM-BNs are promising as an efficient tumor-selective drug-delivery vehicle for tumor therapy.
