Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based tissue engineering holds great potential for regenerative medicine as a means of replacing damaged or lost tissues to restore their structure and function. However, the efficacy of MSC-based regeneration is frequently limited by the low survival rate and limited survival time of transplanted MSCs. Despite the inherent immune privileges of MSCs, such as low expression of major histocompatibility complex antigens, tolerogenic properties, local immunosuppressive microenvironment creation, and induction of immune tolerance, immune rejection remains a major obstacle to their survival and regenerative potential. Evidence suggests that immune protection strategies can enhance MSC therapeutic efficacy by prolonging their survival and maintaining their biological functions. Among various immune protection strategies, biomaterial-based scaffolds or cell encapsulation systems that mediate the interaction between transplanted MSCs and the host immune system or spatially isolate MSCs from the immune system for a specific time period have shown great promise. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of these biomaterial-based immune protection strategies employed for exogenous MSCs, highlighting the crucial role of modulating the immune microenvironment. Each strategy is critically examined, discussing its strengths, limitations, and potential applications in MSC-based tissue engineering. By elucidating the mechanisms behind immune rejection and exploring immune protection strategies, we aim to address the challenges faced by MSC-based tissue engineering and pave the way for enhancing the therapeutic outcomes of MSC therapies. The insights gained from this review will contribute to the development of more effective strategies to protect transplanted MSCs from immune rejection and enable their successful application in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
537 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes mellitus, a problem of glucose management that is related to a number of major health risks, including cardiovascular diseases. There is a need for new, efficient formulations of diabetic medications to address this condition and its related consequences because existing treatments have a number of drawbacks and limits. This encouraged the development of treatment plans to get around some of these restrictions, like low therapeutic drug bioavailability or patients' disobedience to existing therapies. Approaches based on nanotechnology have a lot of promise to enhance the treatment of diabetic patients. In order to manage blood glucose, this review article highlights recent developments and explores the potential applications of different materials (polymeric, ceramic, dendrimers, etc.) as nanocarriers for the delivery of insulin and other antidiabetic medications. Using an injectable and acid-degradable polymeric network produced by the electrostatic interaction of oppositely charged dextran nanoparticles loaded with insulin and glucose-specific enzymes, we reviewed a glucose-mediated release approach for the self-regulated delivery of insulin, in which, after a degradable nano-network was subcutaneously injected into type 1 diabetic mice,in vivoexperiments confirmed that these formulations improved glucose management. In addition, a discussion of silica-based nanocarriers, their potential for treating diabetes and controlling blood glucose levels, and an explanation of the role of dendrimers in diabetes treatment have been covered. This is done by utilizing the properties of silica nanoparticles, such as their tuneable particle and pore size, surface chemistry, and biocompatibility. The article summarized the significance of nanomaterials and their uses in the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes overall, illuminating the field's potential and outlining its prospects for the future.

Abstract
Glucose -sensitive delivery systems hold great promise as a therapeutic approach for high-incidence diabetes owing to their ability to release insulin whenever elevated glycemia is detected. However, they are unstable in a hyperglycemic environment, which leads to short-term sustained insulin release. Herein, we designed dually crosslinked insulin polyionic micelles (DCM@insulin) based on triblock polymers of o-glycol and phenylboronic acid-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(dimethylamino carbonate)-poly(dimethylamino-trimethylene carbonate) (mPEG-P(AC-co-MPD)-PDMAC and mPEG-P(AC-co-MAPBA)-PDMATC, respectively) for sustained glucose-responsive insulin release. DCM@insulin with a phenylboronic acid ester structure (first crosslinking structure) enhanced glycemic responsiveness by regulating insulin release in a hyperglycemic environment. Additionally, the UV-crosslinking structure (second crosslinking structure) formed by the residual double bonds in AC units endowed DCM@insulin with the ability to effectively protect the loaded insulin against protease degradation and avoid burst release under multiple insulin release. The in vivo findings demonstrated that DCM@insulin effectively maintained glycemic levels (BGLs) within the normal range for 6 h in comparison to single-crosslinked micelles (SCM@insulin). Therefore, the glucose-responsive and dually crosslinked polyionic micelle system exhibits potential as a viable option for the treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
Intracellular bacteria pose a great challenge to antimicrobial therapy due to various physiological barriers at both cellular and bacterial levels, which impede drug penetration and intracellular targeting, thereby fostering antibiotic resistance and yielding suboptimal treatment outcomes. Herein, a cascade-target bacterial-responsive drug delivery nanosystem, MM@SPE NPs, comprising a macrophage membrane (MM) shell and a core of SPE NPs. SPE NPs consist of phenylboronic acid-grafted dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (SP NPs) encapsulated with epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a non-antibiotic antibacterial component, via pH-sensitive boronic ester bonds are introduced. Upon administration, MM@SPE NPs actively home in on infected macrophages due to the homologous targeting properties of the MM shell, which is subsequently disrupted during cellular endocytosis. Within the cellular environment, SPE NPs expose and spontaneously accumulate around intracellular bacteria through their bacteria-targeting phenylboronic acid groups. The acidic bacterial microenvironment further triggers the breakage of boronic ester bonds between SP NPs and EGCG, allowing the bacterial-responsive release of EGCG for localized intracellular antibacterial effects. The efficacy of MM@SPE NPs in precisely eliminating intracellular bacteria is validated in two rat models of intracellular bacterial infections. This cascade-targeting responsive system offers new solutions for treating intracellular bacterial infections while minimizing the risk of drug resistance.

Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common retinal disorder, developed in 35% of patients with diabetes mellitus. Lower serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D are associated with the increased risk of developing DR. High doses of the active form of vitamin D (VD), on the contrary, for a long period of time may lead to hypercalcemia and an imbalance in the regulation of bone metabolism. Herein, we studied the efficacy of dextran-gated carboxyphenylboronic acid (CPBA)-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) for glucose-sensitive delivery of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 to modulate cellular oxidative stress and inflammation for managing DR. The physical adsorption technique was employed to load VD onto nanoparticles (263.63 μg/mg (w/w)). In the presence of glucose, the dextran molecules detach from pores, allowing VD to release since glucose has 1,2-cis diol groups which have very high affinity to CPBA. Approximately 75% of VD was released upon exposure to 25 mM glucose at a time point of 10 h, demonstrating glucose-responsive delivery. Furthermore, MSN-CPBA was able to deliver VD in a glucose-dependent manner and improve the bioavailability of VD. In high-glucose-supplemented human retinal cells, MSN-CPBA increased the bioavailability of VD and reduced cellular oxidative stress and inflammation. The results suggested that the VD-loaded nanocarrier exerted remarkable therapeutic capacity in reducing the risk of developing DR. By using MSN-CPBA as a delivery platform with dextran gating, the research proposes an effective treatment approach for improving the bioavailability and effectiveness of a hydrophobic molecule in the treatment of DR.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. The current CVD therapeutic drugs require long-term treatment with high doses, which increases the risk of adverse effects while offering only marginal treatment efficacy. Silica nanoparticles (SNPs) have been proven to be an efficient drug delivery vehicle for numerous diseases, including CVD. This article reviews recent progress and advancement in targeted delivery for drugs and diagnostic and theranostic agents using silica nanoparticles to achieve therapeutic efficacy and improved detection of CVD in clinical and preclinical settings. METHODS A search of PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases from 1990 to 2023 was conducted. Current clinical trials on silica nanoparticles were identified through ClinicalTrials.gov. Search terms include silica nanoparticles, cardiovascular diseases, drug delivery, and therapy. FINDINGS Silica nanoparticles exhibit biocompatibility in biological systems, and their shape, size, surface area, and surface functionalization can be customized for the safe transport and protection of drugs in blood circulation. These properties also enable effective drug uptake in specific tissues and controlled drug release after systemic, localized, or oral delivery. A range of silica nanoparticles have been used as nanocarrier for drug delivery to treat conditions such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, ischemia, thrombosis, and myocardial infarction. IMPLICATIONS The use of silica nanoparticles for drug delivery and their ongoing development has emerged as a promising strategy to improve the effectiveness of drugs, imaging agents, and theranostics with the potential to revolutionize the treatment of CVD.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disease with an alarming global prevalence, is associated with several serious health threats, including cardiovascular diseases. Current diabetes treatments have several limitations and disadvantages, creating the need for new effective formulations to combat this disease and its associated complications. This motivated the development of therapeutic strategies to overcome some of these limitations, such as low therapeutic drug bioavailability or poor compliance of patients with current therapeutic methodologies. Taking advantage of silica nanoparticle characteristics such as tuneable particle and pore size, surface chemistry and biocompatibility, silica-based nanocarriers have been developed with the potential to treat diabetes and regulate blood glucose concentration. This review discusses the main topics in the field, such as oral administration of insulin, glucose-responsive devices and innovative administration routes.

Abstract
Nocturnal blood glucose regulation was one of the key challenges in diabetic treatments. However, development of the smart insulin complexes with mild and glucose-responsive delivering performances was mostly relied on experience of the senior researchers and numerous confirmation experiments. In this work, a series of bioinspired fatty-acid-modified glucose-responsive insulin-delivering polymeric nanoparticles were designed. The molecular docking technique was utilized to efficiently screen the fatty-acid-derived functional groups. The results provided the basis for polymer functionalization and simplified the optimization experiments. For the optimized formulation (C10MS), insulin-loaded C10MS successfully fulfilled the nocturnal-glycemic-controlling requirement of the diabetic rats with lower occurrence of hypoglycemia than the conventional insulin injection schemes. Such formulation also possessed good biocompatibility with the moderate elimination kinetics in vivo, which matched the demand of bio-safety in the daily treatments. Overall, this work opened up a new path for efficient design of functional polymeric materials.

[PMID: 35745355 PMCID: PMC9228019 DOI: 10.3390/nano12122016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 05/30/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles (MSNs) have received increasing attention in biomedical applications due to their tuneable pore size, surface area, size, surface chemistry, and thermal stability. The biocompatibility of MSNs, although generally believed to be satisfactory, is unclear. Physicochemical properties of MSNs, such as diameter size, morphology, and surface charge, control their biological interactions and toxicity. Experimental conditions also play an essential role in influencing toxicological results. Therefore, the present study includes studies from the last five years to statistically analyse the effect of various physicochemical features on MSN-induced in-vitro cytotoxicity profiles. Due to non-normally distributed data and the presence of outliers, a Kruskal–Wallis H test was conducted on different physicochemical characteristics, including diameter sizes, zeta-potential measurements, and functionalisation of MSNs, based on the viability results, and statistical differences were obtained. Subsequently, pairwise comparisons were performed using Dunn’s procedure with a Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons. Other experimental parameters, such as type of cell line used, cell viability measurement assay, and incubation time, were also explored and analysed for statistically significant results.

Functionalization of Nanoparticulate Drug Delivery Systems and Its Influence in Cancer Therapy. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14051113. [PMID: 35631699 PMCID: PMC9145684 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14051113] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2022] [Revised: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 05/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Research into the application of nanocarriers in the delivery of cancer-fighting drugs has been a promising research area for decades. On the other hand, their cytotoxic effects on cells, low uptake efficiency, and therapeutic resistance have limited their therapeutic use. However, the urgency of pressing healthcare needs has resulted in the functionalization of nanoparticles' (NPs) physicochemical properties to improve clinical outcomes of new, old, and repurposed drugs. This article reviews recent research on methods for targeting functionalized nanoparticles to the tumor microenvironment (TME). Additionally, the use of relevant engineering techniques for surface functionalization of nanocarriers (liposomes, dendrimers, and mesoporous silica) and their critical roles in overcoming the current limitations in cancer therapy-targeting ligands used for targeted delivery, stimuli strategies, and multifunctional nanoparticles-were all reviewed. The limitations and future perspectives of functionalized nanoparticles were also finally discussed. Using relevant keywords, published scientific literature from all credible sources was retrieved. A quick search of the literature yielded almost 400 publications. The subject matter of this review was addressed adequately using an inclusion/exclusion criterion. The content of this review provides a reasonable basis for further studies to fully exploit the potential of these nanoparticles in cancer therapy.

Abstract
The use of nanoparticles (NPs) has surely grown in recent years due to their versatility, with a spectrum of applications that range from nanomedicine to the food industry. Recent research focuses on the development of NPs for the oral administration route rather than the intravenous one, placing the interactions between NPs and the intestine at the centre of the attention. This allows the NPs functionalization to exploit the different characteristics of the digestive tract, such as the different pH, the intestinal mucus layer, or the intestinal absorption capacity. On the other hand, these same characteristics can represent a problem for their complexity, also considering the potential interactions with the food matrix or the microbiota. This review intends to give a comprehensive look into three main branches of NPs delivery through the oral route: the functionalization of NPs drug carriers for systemic targets, with the case of insulin carriers as an example; NPs for the delivery of drugs locally active in the intestine, for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases and colon cancer; finally, the potential concerns and side effects of the accidental and uncontrolled exposure to NPs employed as food additives, with focus on E171 (titanium dioxide) and E174 (silver NPs).

Abstract
Diabetic patients with type 1 or advanced type 2 stages need timely and precise insulin injection to regulate the daily blood glucose levels (BGLs). Otherwise, risks of serious or even deadly diabetes-associated complications occur. To achieve prolonged glucose regulation and low hypoglycemia risks, a novel on-demand glucose-responsive glycopolymer system was constructed for insulin delivery, which was self-assembled into nanoparticles by dynamic covalent bonds between two polymers: fluorophenylboronic acid-grafted polymer (poly-F) and polyol polymer (poly-G). Insulin was loaded during the assembly process. The nanoparticles showed excellent glucose responsiveness in vitro, with controlled insulin release at different glucose concentrations. In vivo treatment on type 1 diabetic mice showed prolonged BGL regulation and lower hypoglycemia risks. The mild preparation of the nanoparticles and outstanding glucose control shed light on the optional diabetic treatment for further clinical use.

Abstract
Since injection administration for diabetes is invasive, it is important to develop an effective transdermal method for insulin. However, transdermal delivery remains challenging owing to the strong barrier function of the stratum corneum (SC) of the skin. Here, we developed ionic liquid (IL)-in-oil microemulsion formulations (MEFs) for transdermal insulin delivery using choline-fatty acids ([Chl][FAs])-comprising three different FAs (C18:0, C18:1, and C18:2)-as biocompatible surface-active ILs (SAILs). The MEFs were successfully developed using [Chl][FAs] as surfactants, sorbitan monolaurate (Span-20) as a cosurfactant, choline propionate IL as an internal polar phase, and isopropyl myristate as a continuous oil phase. Ternary phase behavior, dynamic light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy studies revealed that MEFs were thermodynamically stable with nanoparticle size. The MEFs significantly enhanced the transdermal permeation of insulin via the intercellular route by compromising the tight lamellar structure of SC lipids through a fluidity-enhancing mechanism. In vivo transdermal administration of low insulin doses (50 IU/kg) to diabetic mice showed that MEFs reduced blood glucose levels (BGLs) significantly compared with a commercial surfactant-based formulation by increasing the bioavailability of insulin in the systemic circulation and sustained the insulin level for a much longer period (half-life > 24 h) than subcutaneous injection (half-life 1.32 h). When [Chl][C18:2] SAIL-based MEF was transdermally administered, it reduced the BGL by 56% of its initial value. The MEFs were biocompatible and nontoxic (cell viability > 90%). They remained stable at room temperature for 3 months and their biological activity was retained for 4 months at 4 °C. We believe SAIL-based MEFs will alter current approaches to insulin therapy and may be a potential transdermal nanocarrier for protein and peptide delivery.

Abstract
We have developed a reversible, biocompatible, "self-programmed" PLGA [poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)] nanoparticle-based optical biosensor capable of sensing and continuous monitoring of glucose above the physiologically relevant threshold value (100-125 mg/dL) as well as "on-demand" insulin delivery via an "On-Off" technique. We have carefully surface engineered the PLGA nanoparticle using amino dextran-fluorescein (A-DexFl) and amino-phenyl boronic acid (A-PBA) to exploit the binding affinity of boronic acids with that of cis-1,2 diols of dextran/glucose. Initially, the dextran chains wrap the nanoparticle surface due to its high affinity toward A-PBA (Kb = 6.1 × 106 M-1). The close proximity of the fluorophores with that of A-PBA quenches the fluorescence, resulting in an "Off" state. On the addition of glucose, it competes with A-DexFl to bind with A-PBA. Above a certain threshold concentration of glucose, the binding affinity overcomes (Kb = 6.3 × 107 M-1) the dextran-A-PBA binding. This opens-up the wrapped A-DexFl chains from the nanoparticle surface and results in an increased distance between the fluorophore and A-PBA, triggering the "On" state. The activation of the On-Off state can be finely tuned in the desired range of physiologically relevant glucose concentrations by varying the ligand ratios on the PLGA surface. The nanoparticle core has also been used as an insulin reservoir to trigger the drug release in the "On" state. We have obtained ∼53% encapsulation efficiency and ∼20% loading efficiency for insulin loading. Once the glucose concentration falls beyond the detection range, the dextran chains collapse on the nanoparticle surface with a suspension in drug release. The process is solely controlled by the competition and multivalent binding affinity between glucose, A-DexFl, and A-PBA, which allows it to be "self-programmed" and "self-regulated" with continuous monitoring up to 8-10 cycles over a 72 h time period. A sustained drug release has been found with ∼70% of released drug over a period of 72 h, although this release is insignificant in the absence of glucose. Several control experiments have been performed to optimize the sensor design.

Abstract
The postprandial glycemic regulation is essential for diabetic patients to reduce the risk of long-term microvascular and macrovascular complications. Herein, we designed a glucose-responsive oral insulin delivery system based on polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) for controlling the increasing postprandial glucose concentrations. Briefly, alginate-g-3-aminophenylboronic acid (ALG-g-APBA) and chitosan-g-3-fluoro-4-carboxyphenylboronic acid (CS-g-FPBA) were wrapped on mesoporous silica (MSN) to form the negative charged ALG-g-APBA@MSN and the positive charged CS-g-FPBA@MSN nanoparticles, with an optimum insulin loading capacity of 124 mg/g and 295 mg/g, respectively. ALG-g-APBA@MSN was further cross-linked with CS-g-FPBA@MSN to form PECs through electrostatic interaction and borate esters. The dense polyelectrolyte network wrapped on MSN was capable of preventing insulin from diffusion and regulating its release. The in vitro insulin release of PECs demonstrated an obvious glucose response profile in different glucose concentrations (0 mg/mL, 2 mg/mL, 5 mg/mL) and presented a switch "on" and "off" release regulation at hyperglycemic or normal state. The CCK-8 assay showed that none of the MSN, ALG-g-APBA@MSN, CS-g-FPBA@MSN, and PECs possessed cytotoxicity to Caco-2 cells. For in vivo tests, the oral PECs exhibited a significant hypoglycemic effect and maintained in the euglycemic levels up to approximately 12 h on diabetic rats. Overall, the PECs directly triggered by postprandial glucose in the intestine have a good potential to be applied in intelligent insulin delivery by the oral route.

Abstract
Diabetes is a metabolic disease that is affecting an ever-increasing number of people worldwide, resulting in increased burdens on healthcare systems and societies. Constant monitoring of blood glucose levels is required to prevent serious or even deadly complications. One major challenge of diabetes management is the simple and timely administration of insulin to facilitate consistent blood glucose regulation and reduce the incidence of hypoglycemia. With this research, we construct an insulin delivery system, the delivery system is comprised of phenylboronic acid based fluorescent probes, which is used as glucose responsive linkers, mesoporous silica nanoparticles providing an insulin reservoir, and zinc oxide nanoparticles used as gate keepers. The system with glucose sensitive responsive linker exhibits controlled release of insulin under high glucose concentrations, providing prolonged blood glucose regulation and no risks of hypoglycemia. Furthermore, the system is combined with a hyaluronic-acid based microneedle patch, which exhibit efficient skin penetration for transdermal delivery. With our system, the nanoparticles provide outstanding in vivo glucose regulation when administrated by subcutaneous injection or via transdermal microneedle patch. We anticipate that our biocompatible smart glucose responsive microneedle patch (SGRM patch) will facilitate the development of clinically useful systems.

Abstract
The immune response elicited by the bone endoprosthesis is currently considered an important factor that affects its interfacial osteointegration. In this work, a metal-phenolic-based drug-loaded coating with universal adhesion properties and intelligent drug delivery feature was created to promote osteointegration by manipulating a beneficial osteoimmune microenvironment. A novel pro-drug with inflammation-responsive release function was firstly synthesized via the esterification reaction between tannic acid (TA) and indometacin (IND), and then the coating was developed by chelating it with Fe3+. In the normal biological environment, the coating was stable, while, in the inflammatory environment, the release of TA and IND motifs could be triggered by the overexpressed esterase. The released TA and IND displayed synergistic effects on macrophage polarization, leading to a downregulation expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and an upregulation expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines and osteogenic-related factors. When stimulated by a conditioned medium generated by macrophages seeded onto the coating, the osteogenic differentiation potential of BMSCs was significantly enhanced. Finally, the designed coating significantly promoted the osteointegration of the implant, demonstrated by the increase of the bone-implant contact by two times. Additionally, the coating was substrate-independent and can be formed within seconds without special equipment, thus, it showed great potential applications to endow advanced hard tissue implants with favorable osteoimmunomodulation.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are highly debilitating. IBDs are associated with the imbalance of inflammatory mediators within the inflamed bowel. Conventional drugs for IBD treatment include anti-inflammatory medications and immune suppressants. However, they suffer from a lack of bioavailability and high dose-induced systemic side effects. Nanoparticle (NP)-derived therapy improves therapeutic efficacy and increases targeting specificity. Recent studies have shown that nanomedicines, based on bowel disease's pathophysiology, are a fast-growing field. NPs can prolong the circulation period and reduce side effects by improving drug encapsulation and targeted delivery. Here, this review summarizes various IBD therapies with a focus on NP-derived applications, whereas their challenges and future perspectives have also been discussed.

Abstract
About ninety percent of all diabetic conditions account for T2D caused due to abnormal insulin secretion/ action or increased hepatic glucose production. Factors that contribute towards the aetiology of T2D could be well explained through biochemical, molecular, and cellular aspects. In this review, we attempt to explain the recent evolving molecular and cellular advancement associated with T2D pathophysiology. Current progress fabricated in T2D research concerning intracellular signaling cascade, inflammasome, autophagy, genetic and epigenetics changes is discretely explained in simple terms. Present available anti-diabetic therapeutic strategies commercialized and their limitations which are needed to be acknowledged are addressed in the current review. In particular, the pre-eminence of nanotechnology-based approaches to nullify the inadequacy of conventional anti-diabetic therapeutics and heterogeneous nanoparticulated systems exploited in diabetic researches are also discretely mentioned and are also listed in a tabular format in the review. Additionally, as a future prospect of nanotechnology, the review presents several strategic hypotheses to ameliorate the austerity of T2D by an engineered smart targeted nano-delivery system. In detail, an effort has been made to hypothesize novel nanotechnological based therapeutic strategies, which exploits previously described inflammasome, autophagic target points. Utilizing graphical description it is explained how a smart targeted nano-delivery system could promote β-cell growth and development by inducing the Wnt signaling pathway (inhibiting Gsk3β), inhibiting inflammasome (inhibiting NLRP3), and activating autophagic target points (protecting Atg3/Atg7 complex from oxidative stress) thereby might ameliorate the severity of T2D. Additionally, several targeting molecules associated with autophagic and epigenetic factors are also highlighted, which can be exploited in future diabetic research.

Abstract
The pre-mature release of therapeutic cargos in the bloodstream or off-target sites is a major hurdle in drug delivery. However, stimuli-specific drug release responses are capable of providing greater control over the cargo release. Herein, various types of nanocarriers have been employed for such applications. Among various types of nanoparticles, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) have several attractive characteristics, such as high loading capacity, biocompatibility, small size, porous structure, high surface area, tunable pore size and ease of functionalization of the external and internal surfaces, which facilitates the entrapment and development of stimuli-dependent release of drugs. MSNPs could be modified with such stimuli-responsive entities like nucleic acid, peptides, polymers, organic molecules, etc., to prevent pre-mature cargo release, improving the therapeutic outcome. This controlled drug release system could be modulated to function upon extracellular or intracellular specific stimuli, including pH, enzyme, glucose, glutathione, light, temperature, etc., and thus provide minimal side effects at non-target sites. This system has great potential applications for the targeted delivery of therapeutics to treat clinically challenging diseases like cancer. This review summarizes the synthesis and design of stimuli-responsive release strategies of MSNP-based drug delivery systems along with investigations in biomedical applications.

Abstract
The use of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in biomedical applications has greatly expanded over the past decade due to the precision tunability, high surface areas, and high loading capacities of MOFs. Specifically, MOFs are being explored for a wide variety of drug delivery applications. Initially, MOFs were used for delivery of small-molecule pharmaceuticals; however, more recent work has focused on macromolecular cargos, such as proteins and nucleic acids. Here, we review the historical application of MOFs for drug delivery, with a specific focus on the available options for designing MOFs for specific drug delivery applications. These options include choices of MOF structure, synthetic method, and drug loading. Further considerations include tuning, modifications, biocompatibility, cellular targeting, and uptake. Altogether, this Review aims to guide MOF design for novel biomedical applications.

Abstract
With increasing incidence and mortality rates, cancer remains one of the most devastating global non-communicable diseases. Restricted dosages and decreased bioavailability, often results in lower therapeutic outcomes, triggering the development of resistance to conventionally used drug/gene therapeutics. The development of novel therapeutic strategies using multimodal nanotechnology to enhance specificity, increase bioavailability and biostability of therapeutics with favorable outcomes is critical. Gated vectors that respond to endogenous or exogenous stimuli, and promote targeted tumor delivery without prematurely cargo loss are ideal. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are effective delivery systems for a variety of therapeutic agents in cancer therapy. MSNs possess a rigid framework and large surface area that can incorporate supramolecular constructs and varying metal species that allow for stimuli-responsive controlled release functions. Its high interior loading capacity can incorporate combination drug/gene therapeutic agents, conferring increased bioavailability and biostability of the therapeutic cargo. Significant advances in the engineering of MSNs structural and physiochemical characteristics have since seen the development of nanodevices with promising in vivo potential. In this review, current trends of multimodal MSNs being developed and their use in stimuli-responsive passive and active targeting in cancer therapy will be discussed, focusing on light, redox, pH, and temperature stimuli.

Abstract
The application of silica mesoporous structures in drug delivery and the removal of pollutants and organic compounds through catalytic reactions is increasing due to their unique characteristics, including high loading capacities, tunable pores, large surface areas, sustainability, and so on. This review focuses on very well-studied class of different construction mesoporous silica nano(particles), such as MCM-41, SBA-15, and SBA-16. We discuss the essential parameters involved in the synthesis of these materials with providing a diverse set of examples. In addition, the recent advances in silica mesoporous structures for drug delivery and catalytic applications are presented to fill the existing gap in the literature with providing some promising examples on this topic for the scientists in both industry and academia active in the field. Regarding the catalytic applications, mesoporous silica particles have shown some promises to remove the organic pollutants and to synthesize final products with high yields due to the ease with which their surfaces can be modified with various ligands to create appropriate interactions with target molecules. In the drug delivery process, as nanocarriers, they have also shown very good performance thanks to the easy surface functionalization but also adjustability of their porosities to providing in-vivo and in-vitro cargo delivery at the target site with appropriate rate.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles have been broadly applied as drug delivery systems owing to their exquisite features, such as excellent textural properties or biocompatibility. However, there are various biological barriers that prevent their proper translation into the clinic, including: (1) lack of selectivity toward tumor tissues, (2) lack of selectivity for tumoral cells and (3) endosomal sequestration of the particles upon internalization. In addition, their open porous structure may lead to premature drug release, consequently affecting healthy tissues and decreasing the efficacy of the treatment. First, this review will provide a comprehensive and systematic overview of the different approximations that have been implemented into mesoporous silica nanoparticles to overcome each of such biological barriers. Afterward, the potential premature and non-specific drug release from these mesoporous nanocarriers will be addressed by introducing the concept of stimuli-responsive gatekeepers, which endow the particles with on-demand and localized drug delivery.

Abstract
The oral bioavailability of therapeutic proteins is limited by the gastrointestinal barriers. Encapsulation of labile proteins into nanoparticles is a promising strategy. In order to improve the stability of nanoparticles, lyophilisation has been used to remove water molecules from the suspension. Although various cryoprotections were employed in the preparation of lyophilised nanoparticles, the selection of cryoprotectant type and concentration in majority of the developed formulation was not justified. In this study, nanoparticles were fabricated by cationic chitosan and anionic Dz13Scr using complex coacervation. The effect of cryoprotectant types (mannitol, sorbitol, sucrose and trehalose) and their concentrations (1, 3, 5, 7, 10% w/v) on physiochemical properties of nanoparticles were measured. Cellular assays were performed to investigate the impact of selected cryoprotectant on cytotoxicity, glucose consumption, oral absorption mechanism and gastrointestinal permeability. The obtained results revealed that mannitol (7% w/v) could produce nanoparticles with small size (313.2 nm), slight positive charge and uniform size distribution. The addition of cryoprotectant could preserve the bioactivity of entrapped insulin and improve the stability of nanoparticles against mechanical stress during lyophilisation. The gastrointestinal absorption of nanoparticles is associated with both endocytic and paracellular pathways. With the use of 7% mannitol, lyophilised nanoparticles induced a significant glucose uptake in C2C12 cells. This work illustrated the importance of appropriate cryoprotectant in conservation of particle physiochemical properties, structural integrity and bioactivity. An incompatible cryoprotectant and inappropriate concentration could lead to cake collapse and formation of heterogeneous particle size populations.

Abstract
Insulin would undergo unfolding and fibrillation under stressed conditions, which may cause serious biotechnological and medical problems. Herein, by mimicking the structure and functions of natural chaperones HSP70s, self-assembled polymeric micelles are used as nanochaperones for the delivery of insulin. The confined hydrophobic domains on the surface of nanochaperones adsorb partially unfolded insulin, inhibiting the aggregation and fibrillation and enhancing the stability of insulin. The bioactivity of insulin is well-reserved after incubation with the nanochaperones at 37 °C for 7 d or heating at 70 °C for 1 h. The stealthy poly(ethylene glycol) chains around the confined domains protect the adsorbed insulin from enzymatic degradation and prolong the circulation time. More importantly, the excellent glucose sensitivity of the hydrophobic domains enables the nanochaperones to release and refold insulin in native form in response to hyperglycemia. This kind of nanochaperone may offer a hopeful strategy for the protection and delivery of insulin.

Abstract
One appealing concept in the field of hybrid materials is related to the design of gated materials. These materials are prepared in such a way that the release of chemical or biochemical species from voids of porous supports to a solution is triggered upon the application of external stimuli. Such gated materials are mainly composed of two subunits: i) a porous inorganic scaffold in which a cargo is stored, and ii) certain molecular or supramolecular entities, grafted onto the external surface, that can control mass transport from the interior of the pores. On the basis of this concept, a large number of examples are developed in the past ten years. A comprehensive overview of gated materials used in drug delivery applications in in vivo models from 2016 to date is thus given here.

Abstract
:Over the past decades, designing therapeutic strategies to target KRAS-mutant cancers, which is one of the most frequent mutant oncogenes among all cancer types, have proven unsuccessful regardless of many concerted attempts. There are key challenges for KRAS-mutant anticancer therapy, as the complex cellular processes involved in KRAS signaling has present. Herein, we highlight the emerging therapeutic approaches for inhibiting KRAS signaling and blocking KRAS functions, in hope to serve as a more effective guideline for future development of therapeutics.

Bio-nanotechnological advancement of orally administered insulin nanoparticles: Comprehensive review of experimental design for physicochemical characterization. Int J Pharm 2019; 572:118720.

Abstract
Therapeutic proteins are labile macromolecules that are prone to degradation during production, freeze-drying and storage. Recent studies showed that nanoparticles can enhance the stability and oral bioavailability of encapsulated proteins. Several conventional approaches (enzyme inhibitors, mucoadhesive polymers) and novel strategies (surface modification, ligand conjugation, flash nano-complexation, stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems) have been employed to improve the physiochemical properties of nanoparticles such as size, zeta potential, morphology, polydispersity index, drug release kinetics and cell-targeting capacity. However, clinical translation of protein-based nanoparticle is limited due to poor experimental design, protocol non-compliance and instrumentation set-up that do not reflect the physiological conditions, resulting in difficulties in mass production of nanoparticles and waste in research funding. In order to address the above concerns, we conducted a comprehensive review to examine the experimental designs and conditions for physical characterization of protein-based nanoparticles. Reliable and robust characterization is essential to verify the cellular interactions and therapeutic potential of protein-based nanoparticles. Importantly, there are a number of crucial factors, which include sample treatment, analytical method, dispersants, sampling grid, staining, quantification parameters, temperature, drug concentration and research materials, should be taken into careful consideration. Variations in research protocol and unreasonable conditions that are used in optimization of pharmaceutical formulations can have great impact in result interpretation. Last but not least, we reviewed all novel instrumentations and assays that are available to examine mucus diffusion capacity, stability and bioactivity of protein-based nanoparticles. These include circular dichroism, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffractogram, UV spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, fluorescence spectrum, Förster resonance energy transfer, NMR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, cellular assays and animal models.

The Influence of Polysaccharide Coating on the Physicochemical Parameters and Cytotoxicity of Silica Nanoparticles for Hydrophilic Biomolecules Delivery. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2019; 9:E1081.

Abstract
The present work reports the effect of polysaccharides (chitosan and sodium alginate) on silica nanoparticles (SiNP) for hydrophilic molecules delivery taking insulin as model drug. The influence of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and homogenization speed on SiNP properties was assessed by a 22 factorial design achieving as optimal parameters: 0.43 mol/L of TEOS and homogenization speed of 5000 rpm. SiNP mean particle size (Z-Ave) was of 256.6 nm and polydispersity index (PI) of 0.218. SiNP coated with chitosan (SiNP-CH) or sodium alginate (SiNP-SA) increased insulin association efficacy; reaching 84.6% (SiNP-SA) and 90.8% (SiNP-CH). However, coated SiNP released 50%-60% of the peptide during the first 45 min at acidic environment, while uncoated SiNP only released 30%. Similar results were obtained at pH 6.8. The low Akaike's (AIC) values indicated that drug release followed Peppas model for SiNP-SA and second order for uncoated SiNP and SiNP-CH (pH 2.0). At pH 6.8, the best fitting was Boltzmann for Ins-SiNP. However, SiNP-CH and SiNP-SA showed a first-order behavior. Cytotoxicity of nanoparticles, assessed in Caco-2 and HepG2 cells, showed that 100 to 500 µg/mL SiNP-CH and SiNP-SA slightly decreased cell viability, comparing with SiNP. In conclusion, coating SiNP with selected polysaccharides influenced the nanoparticles physicochemical properties, the insulin release, and the effect of these nanoparticles on cell viability.
