Carrier cascade target delivery of 5-aminolevulinic acid nanoplatform to enhance antitumor efficiency of photodynamic therapy against lung cancer. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY. B, BIOLOGY 2024; 258:112999. [PMID: 39126752 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2024.112999] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2024] [Revised: 07/16/2024] [Accepted: 07/30/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a prodrug of porphyrin IX (PpIX). Disadvantages of 5-ALA include poor stability, rapid elimination, poor bioavailability, and weak cell penetration, which greatly reduce the clinical effect of 5-ALA based photodynamic therapy (PDT). Presently, a novel targeting nanosystem was constructed using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as carriers loaded with a CSNIDARAC (CC9)-targeting peptide and 5-ALA via Au-sulphur and ionic bonds, respectively, and then wrapped in polylactic glycolic acid (PLGA) NPs via self-assembly to improve the antitumor effects and reduce the side effect. The successful preparation of ALA/CC9@ AuNPs-PLGA NPs was verified using ultraviolet-visible, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The analyses revealed good sphericity with a particle size of approximately140 nm, Zeta potential of 10.11 mV, and slow-controlled release characteristic in a weak acid environment. Confocal microscopy revealed targeting of NCL-H460 cells by NPs by actively internalising CC9 and avoiding the phagocytic action of RAW264.7 cells, and live fluorescence imaging revealed targeting of tumours in tumour-bearing mice. Compared to free 5-ALA, the nanosystem displayed amplified anticancer activity by increasing production of PpIX and reactive oxygen species to induce mitochondrial pathway apoptosis. Antitumor efficacy was consistently observed in three-dimensionally cultured cells as the loss of integrity of tumour balls. More potent anti-tumour efficacy was demonstrated in xenograft tumour models by decreased growth rate and increased tumour apoptosis. Histological analysis showed that this system was not toxic, with lowered liver toxicity of 5-ALA. Thus, ALA/CC9@AuNPs-PLGA NPs deliver 5-ALA via a carrier cascade, with excellent effects on tumour accumulation and PDT through passive enhanced permeability and retention action and active targeting. This innovative strategy for cancer therapy requires more clinical trials before being implemented.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133689. [PMID: 38971272 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133689] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2023] [Revised: 06/29/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/08/2024]
Abstract
Benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) is a naturally active bacteriostatic substance and κ-carrageenan (KC) is a good film-forming substrate. In the present study, a nanoemulsion incorporating BITC was fabricated with a particle size of 224.1 nm and an encapsulation efficiency of 69.2 %. Subsequently, the acquired BITC nanoemulsion (BITC-NE) was incorporated into the KC-based film, and the light transmittance of the prepared composite films was lower than that of the pure KC film. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy revealed that BITC-NE was compatible with the KC matrix. BITC-NE incorporation enhanced the tensile strength of the KC-based films by 33.7 %, decreased the elongation at break by 33.8 %, decreased the water vapor permeability by 60.1 %, increased the maximum thermal degradation temperature by 48.8 %, and decreased the oxygen permeability by 42 % (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the composite films showed enhanced antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium, and Pseudomonas fluorescens. The developed KC-based composite films were applied to wrap raw beef, which significantly delayed the increase in total viable count, total volatile base nitrogen content, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, and prolonged the shelf-life of the raw beef by up to 10 days. These results indicated that the composite films prepared by incorporating BITC nanoemulsions into KC matrices have great antimicrobial application potential.

Abstract
Microrobots, which can perform tasks in difficult-to-reach parts of the human body under their own or external power supply, are potential tools for biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, microsurgery, imaging and monitoring, tissue engineering, and sensors and actuators. Compared with traditional fabrication methods for microrobots, recent improvements in 3D printers enable them to print high-precision microrobots, breaking through the limitations of traditional micromanufacturing technologies that require high skills for operators and greatly shortening the design-to-production cycle. Here, this review first introduces typical 3D printing technologies used in microrobot manufacturing. Then, the structures of microrobots with different functions and application scenarios are discussed. Next, we summarize the materials (body materials, propulsion materials and intelligent materials) used in 3D microrobot manufacturing to complete body construction and realize biomedical applications (e.g., drug delivery, imaging and monitoring). Finally, the challenges and future prospects of 3D printed microrobots in biomedical applications are discussed in terms of materials, manufacturing and advancement.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases pose a significant global health challenge, contributing to high mortality rates and impacting overall well-being and quality of life. Nitric oxide (NO) plays a pivotal role as a vasodilator, regulating blood pressure and enhancing blood flow-crucial elements in preventing cardiovascular diseases, making it a prime therapeutic target. Herein, metal-based nanozymes (NZs) designed to induce NO release from both endogenous and exogenous NO-donors are investigated. Successful synthesis of gold, platinum (Pt) and cerium oxide NZs is achieved, with all three NZs demonstrating the ability to catalyze the NO release from various NO sources, namely S-nitrosothiols and diazeniumdiolates. Pt-NZs exhibit the strongest performance among the three NZ types. Further exploration involved investigating encapsulation and coating techniques using poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles as experimental carriers for Pt-NZs. Both strategies showed efficiency in serving as platforms for Pt-NZs, successfully showing the ability to trigger NO release.

Abstract
The relentless pursuit of effective cancer diagnosis and treatment strategies has led to the rapidly expanding field of nanotechnology, with a specific focus on nanocomposites. Nanocomposites, a combination of nanomaterials with diverse properties, have emerged as versatile tools in oncology, offering multifunctional platforms for targeted delivery, imaging, and therapeutic interventions. Nanocomposites exhibit great potential for early detection and accurate imaging in cancer diagnosis. Integrating various imaging modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and fluorescence imaging, into nanocomposites enables the development of contrast agents with enhanced sensitivity and specificity. Moreover, functionalizing nanocomposites with targeting ligands ensures selective accumulation in tumor tissues, facilitating precise imaging and diagnostic accuracy. On the therapeutic front, nanocomposites have revolutionized cancer treatment by overcoming traditional challenges associated with drug delivery. The controlled release of therapeutic agents from nanocomposite carriers enhances drug bioavailability, reduces systemic toxicity, and improves overall treatment efficacy. Additionally, the integration of stimuli-responsive components within nanocomposites enables site-specific drug release triggered by the unique microenvironment of the tumor. Despite the remarkable progress in the field, challenges such as biocompatibility, scalability, and long-term safety profiles remain. This article provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments, challenges, and prospects, emphasizing the transformative potential of nanocomposites in revolutionizing the landscape of cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. In Conclusion, integrating nanocomposites in cancer diagnosis and treatment heralds a new era for precision medicine.

Abstract
Polymeric materials, despite their many undeniable advantages, nowadays are a major environmental challenge. Thus, in recent years biodegradable polymer matrices have been widely used in various sectors, including the medicinal, chemical, and packaging industry. Their widespread use is due to the properties of biodegradable polymer matrices, among which are their adjustable physicochemical and mechanical properties, as well as lower environmental impact. The properties of biodegradable polymers can be modified with various types of nanofillers, among which clays, organic and inorganic nanoparticles, and carbon nanostructures are most commonly used. The performance of the final product depends on the size and uniformity of the used nanofillers, as well as on their distribution and dispersion in the polymer matrix. This literature review aims to highlight new research results on advances and improvements in the synthesis, physicochemical properties and applications of biodegradable polymer matrices modified with metal nanoparticles and metal oxides.

Abstract
Peptides, both natural and synthetic, are well suited for a wide range of purposes and offer versatile applications in different fields such as biocatalysts, injectable hydrogels, tumor treatment, and drug delivery. The research of the better part of the cited papers was conducted using various database platforms such as MetalPDB. The rising prominence of therapeutic peptides encompasses anticancer, antiviral, antimicrobial, and anti-neurodegenerative properties. The metals Na, K, Mg, Ca, Fe, Mn, Co, Cu, Zn, and Mo are ten of the twenty elements that are considered essential for life. Crucial for understanding the biological role of metals is the exploration of metal-bound proteins and peptides. Aside from essential metals, there are other non-essential metals that also interact biologically, exhibiting either therapeutic or toxic effects. Irregularities in metal binding contribute to diseases like Alzheimer's, neurodegenerative disorders, Wilson's, and Menkes disease. Certain metal complexes have potential applications as radiopharmaceuticals. The examination of these complexes was achieved by preforming UV-Vis, IR, EPR, NMR spectroscopy, and X-ray analysis. This summary, although unable to cover all of the studies in the field, offers a review of the ongoing experimentation and is a basis for new ideas, as well as strategies to explore and gain knowledge from the extensive realm of peptide-chelated metals and biotechnologies.

Abstract
Various nanomaterials have been studied for their biomedical application in recent years. Among them, nanocomposites have a prominent medical application in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of various diseases. Nanocomposites are made up of polymeric matrix layers composed of synthetic or natural polymers like chitosan, polyethylene glycol, etc. Polymer nanocomposites are inorganic nanoparticles dispersed in a polymer matrix. There are two types of polymeric nanocomposites which include natural and synthetic polymer nanocomposites. These nanocomposites have various biomedical applications, such as medical implants, wound healing, wound dressing, bone repair and replacement, and dental filling. Polymeric nanocomposites have a wide range of biomedical applications due to their high stability, non-immunogenic nature, sustained drug delivery, non-toxic, and can escape reticuloendothelial system uptake along with drug bioavailability improvement. In this review, we have discussed various types of natural and synthetic polymer nanocomposites and their biomedical applications.

Abstract
A poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) copolymer was synthesized using the ring-opening polymerization of d,l-lactide and glycolide monomers in the presence of zinc proline complex in bulk through the green route and was well characterized using attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance, gel permeation chromatography, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight, etc. Furthermore, PLGA-conjugated biotin (PLGA-B) was synthesized using the synthesized PLGA and was employed to fabricate nanoparticles for irinotecan (Ir) delivery. These nanoparticles (PLGA-NP-Ir and PLGA-B-NP-Ir) were tested for physicochemical and biological characteristics. PLGA-B-NP-Ir exhibited a stronger cellular uptake and anticancer activity as compared to PLGA-NP-Ir in CT-26 cancer cells (log p < 0.05). The accumulation and retention of fluorescence-labeled nanoparticles were observed to be better in CT-26-inoculated solid tumors in Balb/c mice. The PLGA-B-NP-Ir-treated group inhibited tumor growth significantly more (log p < 0.001) than the untreated control, PLGA-NP-Ir, and Ir-treated groups. Furthermore, no body weight loss, hematological, and blood biochemical tests demonstrated the nanocarriers' nontoxic nature. This work presents the use of safe PLGA and the demonstration of a proof-of-concept of biotin surface attached PLGA nanoparticle-mediated active targeted Ir administration to combat colon cancer. To treat colon cancer, PLGA-B-NP-Ir performed better due to specific active tumor targeting and greater cellular uptake due to biotin.

Abstract
Even though chemotherapy stands as a standard option in the therapy of TNBC, problems associated with it such as anemia, bone marrow suppression, immune suppression, toxic effects on healthy cells, and multi-drug resistance (MDR) can compromise their effects. Nanoparticles gained paramount importance in overcoming the limitations of conventional chemotherapy. Among the various options, nanotechnology has appeared as a promising path in preclinical and clinical studies for early diagnosis of primary tumors and metastases and destroying tumor cells. PLGA has been extensively studied amongst various materials used for the preparation of nanocarriers for anticancer drug delivery and adjuvant therapy because of their capability of higher encapsulation, easy surface functionalization, increased stability, protection of drugs from degradation versatility, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Furthermore, this review also provides an overview of PLGA-based nanoparticles including hybrid nanoparticles such as the inorganic PLGA nanoparticles, lipid-coated PLGA nanoparticles, cell membrane-coated PLGA nanoparticles, hydrogels, exosomes, and nanofibers. The effects of all these systems in various in vitro and in vivo models of TNBC were explained thus pointing PLGA-based NPs as a strategy for the management of TNBC.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) present a significant threat to health, with traditional therapeutics based treatment being hindered by inefficiencies, limited biological effects, and resistance to conventional drug. Addressing these challenges requires advanced approaches for early disease diagnosis and therapy. Nanotechnology and nanomedicine have emerged as promising avenues for personalized CVD diagnosis and treatment through theranostic agents. Nanoparticles serve as nanodevices or nanocarriers, efficiently transporting drugs to injury sites. These nanocarriers offer the potential for precise drug and gene delivery, overcoming issues like bioavailability and solubility. By attaching specific target molecules to nanoparticle surfaces, controlled drug release to targeted areas becomes feasible. In the field of cardiology, nanoplatforms have gained popularity due to their attributes, such as passive or active targeting of cardiac tissues, enhanced sensitivity and specificity, and easy penetration into heart and artery tissues due to their small size. However, concerns persist about the immunogenicity and cytotoxicity of nanomaterials, necessitating careful consideration. Nanoparticles also hold promise for CVD diagnosis and imaging, enabling straightforward diagnostic procedures and real-time tracking during therapy. Nanotechnology has revolutionized cardiovascular imaging, yielding multimodal and multifunctional vehicles that outperform traditional methods. The paper provides an overview of nanomaterial delivery routes, targeting techniques, and recent advances in treating, diagnosing, and engineering tissues for CVDs. It also discusses the future potential of nanomaterials in CVDs, including theranostics, aiming to enhance cardiovascular treatment in clinical practice. Ultimately, refining nanocarriers and delivery methods has the potential to enhance treatment effectiveness, minimize side effects, and improve patients' well-being and outcomes.

Modular Drug-Loaded Nanocapsules with Metal Dome Layers as a Platform for Obtaining Synergistic Therapeutic Biological Activities. ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2023; 15:50330-50343.

Abstract
Multifunctional drug-loaded polymer-metal nanocapsules have attracted increasing attention in drug delivery due to their multifunctional potential endowed by drug activity and response to physicochemical stimuli. Current chemical synthesis methods of polymer/metal capsules require specific optimization of the different components to produce particles with precise properties, being particularly complex for Janus structures combining polymers and ferromagnetic and highly reactive metals. With the aim to generate tunable synergistic nanotherapeutic actuation with enhanced drug effects, here we demonstrate a versatile hybrid chemical/physical fabrication strategy to incorporate different functional metals with tailored magnetic, optical, or chemical properties on solid drug-loaded polymer nanoparticles. As archetypical examples, we present poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (diameters 100-150 nm) loaded with paclitaxel, indocyanine green, or erythromycin that are half-capped by either Fe, Au, or Cu layers, respectively, with application in three biomedical models. The Fe coating on paclitaxel-loaded nanocapsules permitted efficient magnetic enhancement of the cancer spheroid assembly, with 40% reduction of the cross-section area after 24 h, as well as a higher paclitaxel effect. In addition, the Fe-PLGA nanocapsules enabled external contactless manipulation of multicellular cancer spheroids with a speed of 150 μm/s. The Au-coated and indocyanine green-loaded nanocapsules demonstrated theranostic potential and enhanced anticancer activity in vitro and in vivo due to noninvasive fluorescence imaging with long penetration near-infrared (NIR) light and simultaneous photothermal-photodynamic actuation, showing a 3.5-fold reduction in the tumor volume growth with only 5 min of NIR illumination. Finally, the Cu-coated erythromycin-loaded nanocapsules exhibited enhanced antibacterial activity with a 2.5-fold reduction in the MIC50 concentration with respect to the free or encapsulated drug. Altogether, this technology can extend a nearly unlimited combination of metals, polymers, and drugs, thus enabling the integration of magnetic, optical, and electrochemical properties in drug-loaded nanoparticles to externally control and improve a wide range of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Chemical signal molecules are used by bacteria to interact with one another. Small hormone-like molecules known as autoinducers are produced, released, detected, and responded to during chemical communication. Quorum Sensing (QS) is the word for this procedure; it allows bacterial populations to communicate and coordinate group behavior. Several research has been conducted on using inhibitors to prevent QS and minimize the detrimental consequences. Through the enzymatic breakdown of the autoinducer component, by preventing the formation of autoinducers, or by blocking their reception by adding some compounds (inhibitors) that can mimic the autoinducers, a technique known as "quorum quenching" (QQ) disrupts microbial communication. Numerous techniques, including colorimetry, electrochemistry, bioluminescence, chemiluminescence, fluorescence, chromatography-mass spectroscopy, and many more, can be used to test QS/QQ. They all permit quantitative and qualitative measurements of QS/QQ molecules. The mechanism of QS and QQ, as well as the use of QQ in the prevention of biofilms, are all elaborated upon in this writing, along with the fundamental study of nanoparticle (NP)in QQ. Q.

Abstract
Today, with the indiscriminate use of antibiotics, we face the resistance of some bacterial strains against some antibiotics. Therefore, it is essential to report and synthesize new compounds with antimicrobial properties. A novel copper/dipicolinic acid-metal-organic framework cross-linked oxidized pectin and chitosan (Cu/DPA-MOF/OP/CS) hydrogel polymer was synthesized under environmental conditions with the controllable process, which uses biodegradable polymer compounds such as pectin and chitosan in its structure. The efficient physicochemical features of the synthesized Cu/DPA-MOF/OP/CS hydrogel using SEM, FT-IR, TGA, BET, XRD, and EDS/mapping were identified and confirmed. The newly synthesized Cu/DPA-MOF/OP/CS hydrogel showed activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains and fungal species, and significant antibacterial and antifungal properties were observed. In antibacterial activity, the MIC against Gram-positive species was in the range of 16-128 mg/mL, the MIC against Gram-negative species was in the range of 64-256 mg/mL, and the MIC against fungal species was in the range of 128-512 mg/mL. In antimicrobial evaluations, in addition to the MIC test, the MBC test, the MFC test, and the IZD test were performed, and the results were reported. The results were compared with commercial antibiotics in the market. Development of novel nanostructures based on hydrogel polymers with distinctive functionality can affect the performance of these nanostructures in different areas.

Abstract
Metal ion-based nanocomposite materials were recognized to exhibit a wide range of photocatalytic and biological applications. This study aims to synthesize zinc oxide doped reduced graphene oxide (ZnO/RGO) nanocomposite in sufficient quantities through the sol-gel method. The physical characters of the synthesized ZnO/RGO nanocomposite were determined by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDS) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques. The TEM image results revealed rod-like morphology of the ZnO/RGO nanocomposite. The X-ray photoelectron spectral data revealed the formation of ZnO nanostructures representing the banding energy gap value of 1044.6 and 1021.5 eV positions. Moreover, ZnO/RGO nanocomposites displayed excellent photocatalytic degradation with a degradation efficiency of 98.6%. This research not only demonstrates the photocatalytic efficiency of zinc oxide-doped RGO nanosheets but also illustrates the antibacterial efficacy against two different bacterial pathogens including Gram-positive E. coli and Gram-negative S. aureus. Furthermore, this research highlights an eco-friendly and inexpensive preparation of nanocomposite material for a wide range of environmental applications.

Facile One-Step Electrospinning Process to Prepare AgNPs-Loaded PLA and PLA/PEO Mats with Antibacterial Activity. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15061470.

Abstract
Nanofibers can play an important role in developing new kinds of medical applications. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and PLA/poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) antibacterial mats containing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were prepared by a simple one-step electrospinning method that allows AgNPs to be synthesized simultaneously with the preparation of the electrospinning solution. The electrospun nanofibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and thermogravimetry, while silver release over time was monitored by inductively coupled plasma/optical emission spectroscopy. The antibacterial activity was tested against Staphylococcus epidermidis and Escherichia coli by colony forming unit (CFU) count on agar after 15, 24 and 48 h of incubation. AgNPs were found to be mainly concentrated in the PLA nanofiber core, and the mats showed steady but slow Ag release in the short term; in contrast, AgNPs were uniformly distributed in the PLA/PEO nanofibers, which released up to 20% of their initial silver content in 12 h. A significant (p < 0.05) antimicrobial effect towards both tested bacteria, highlighted by a reduction in the CFU/mL counts, was observed for the nanofibers of PLA and PLA/PEO embedded with AgNPs, with a stronger effect exerted by the latter, confirming the more efficient silver release from these samples. The prepared electrospun mats may have good potential for use in the biomedical field, particularly in wound dressing applications, where a targeted delivery of the antimicrobial agent is highly desirable to avoid infections.

Abstract
Bacterial infection associated with bone grafts is one of the major challenges that can lead to implant failure. Treatment of these infections is a costly endeavor; therefore, an ideal bone scaffold should merge both biocompatibility and antibacterial activity. Antibiotic-impregnated scaffolds may prevent bacterial colonization but exacerbate the global antibiotic resistance problem. Recent approaches combined scaffolds with metal ions that have antimicrobial properties. In our study, a unique strontium/zinc (Sr/Zn) co-doped nanohydroxyapatite (nHAp) and Poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) -(PLGA) composite scaffold was fabricated using a chemical precipitation method with different ratios of Sr/Zn ions (1%, 2.5%, and 4%). The scaffolds’ antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus were evaluated by counting bacterial colony-forming unit (CFU) numbers after direct contact with the scaffolds. The results showed a dose-dependent reduction in CFU numbers as the Zn concentration increased, with 4% Zn showing the best antibacterial properties of all the Zn-containing scaffolds. PLGA incorporation in Sr/Zn-nHAp did not affect the Zn antibacterial activity and the 4% Sr/Zn-nHAp-PLGA scaffold showed a 99.7% bacterial growth inhibition. MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) cell viability assay showed that Sr/Zn co-doping supported osteoblast cell proliferation with no apparent cytotoxicity and the highest doping percentage in the 4% Sr/Zn-nHAp-PLGA was found to be ideal for cell growth. In conclusion, these findings demonstrate the potential for a 4% Sr/Zn-nHAp-PLGA scaffold with enhanced antibacterial activity and cytocompatibility as a suitable candidate for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Polymer-metal nanocomposites have widespread applications in biomedical fields such as imaging, catalysis, and drug delivery. These particles are characterized by combined organic and inorganic properties. Specifically, photothermal nanocomposites incorporating polymeric and plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) have been designed for both triggered drug release and as imaging agents. However, the usual design of nanocomposites confers characteristic issues, among which are the decrease of optical properties and resulting low photothermal efficiency, as well as interactions with loaded drugs. Herein, we report the design of a core-satellite polymer-metal nanocomposite assembled by coiled-coil peptides and its superior photothermal efficiency compared to electrostatic-driven nanocomposites which is the standard design. We also found that the orientation of gold nanorods on the surface of polymeric NPs is of importance in the final photothermal efficiency and could be exploited for various applications. Our findings provide an alternative to current wrapping and electrostatic assembly of nanocomposites with the help of coiled-coil peptides and an improvement of the control over core-satellite assemblies with plasmonic NPs. It paves the way to highly versatile assemblies due to the nature of coiled-coil peptides to be easily modified and sensitive to pH or temperature.

Abstract
Biodegradable polymers are expected to be an alternative to plastics. Because of its high biocompatibility, poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) is widely used in medicine. It has been reported that micro-nano plastics can be accumulated in the circulatory system and cause tissue injury. With the increasing environmental exposure of degradable polymer nanoparticles (NPs), the impact of this risk factor on cardiovascular disease deserves attention. Thus, we aim to study the harmful effect of PLGA NPs on the process of vascular stenosis which is a typical pathological feature of cardiovascular diseases. We establish a mouse vascular stenosis model with intravenously injecting of PLGA NPs for 2 weeks. This model leads to a significant narrowing of the left common carotid artery which is characterized by the increasing intima area and focal stenosis. We observe that PLGA NPs accelerate stenosis progression by inducing inflammation and impairing vascular function. It promotes the proliferation of smooth muscle cells and causes abnormal collagen distribution. The combination of wall shear stress and PLGA NPs uptake speed up endothelial cell damage, decrease endothelial permeability and cell migration capacity. Our results suggest that PLGA NPs may pose a risk in cardiovascular stenosis which inspire us to concern the biodegradable polymeric materials in our living especially the clinic applications.

Improving antimicrobial activity against endodontic biofilm after exposure to blue light-activated novel curcumin nanoparticle. Photodiagnosis Photodyn Ther 2023; 42:103322. [PMID: 36773754 DOI: 10.1016/j.pdpdt.2023.103322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2023]
Abstract
New therapies involving natural products and nanobiotechnology open additional perspectives to reduce endodontic infections. Curcumin is a natural polyphenol extracted from the dry rhizome of curcuma long Linn with therapeutic properties for application in nanobiotechnology and as a photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy. This study aimed to synthesize a novel polymeric nanoparticle of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) loaded with curcumin (NP+Cur), and evaluate its antimicrobial activity against endodontic biofilms. Additionally, its biocompatibility using oral keratinocytes was assessed. The polymeric NP+Cur was prepared by the nanoprecipitation method. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) were calculated for the three endodontic bacteria (Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus oralis and Actinomyces viscosus). Antibacterial activity of NP+Cur against single- and multispecies biofilm pre-formed on the botton 24-well plate and into dentin tubules of bovine teeth were evaluated by colony forming units and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The pre-irradiation time was 5 min followed by exposure to blue light-emitting diode at 450 nm for the photodynamic treatment. Cell viability using oral keratinocytes was assessed by Alamar Blue assay. MIC and MBC showed antibacterial activity of NP+Cur against endodontic bacteria. A treatment of pre-formed biofilms of endodontic bacteria with NP+Cur also significantly decreased bacterial viability. The concentration of 325 μg/mL of photoactivated NP+Cur was the one that most reduced the viability of the endodontic bacteria evaluated. Regarding biocompatibility, NP+Cur 325 μg/mL and pure nanoparticles showed a cell viability greater than 80%. The novel polymeric nanoparticles loaded with curcumin may be a promising adjunct use to treatment of endodontic infections.

PLGA microparticle formulations for tunable delivery of a nano-engineered filamentous bacteriophage-based vaccine: in vitro and in silico-supported approach. JOURNAL OF NANOSTRUCTURE IN CHEMISTRY 2023:1-16.

Abstract
Bacteriophages have attracted great attention in the bioengineering field in diverse research areas from tissue engineering to therapeutic and clinical applications. Recombinant filamentous bacteriophage, carrying multiple copies of foreign peptides on protein capsid has been successfully used in the vaccine delivery setting, even if their plasma instability and degradation have limited their use on the pharmaceutical market. Encapsulation techniques in polymeric materials can be applied to preserve bacteriophage activity, extend its half-life, and finely regulate their release in the target environment. The main goal of this study was to provide tunable formulations of the bacteriophage encapsulated in polymeric microparticles (MPs). We used poly (lactic-co-glycolic-acid) as a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer with ammonium bicarbonate as a porogen to encapsulate bacteriophage expressing OVA (257-264) antigenic peptide. We demonstrate that nano-engineered fdOVA bacteriophages encapsulated in MPs preserve their structure and are immunologically active, inducing a strong immune response towards the delivered peptide. Moreover, MP encapsulation prolongs bacteriophage stability over time also at room temperature. Additionally, in this study, we show the ability of in silico-supported approach to predict and tune the release of bacteriophages. These results lay the framework for a versatile bacteriophage-based vaccine delivery system that could successfully generate robust immune responses in a sustained manner, to be used as a platform against cancer and new emerging diseases. Graphical abstract Synopsis: administration of recombinant bacteriophage-loaded PLGA microparticles for antigen delivery. PLGA microparticles release the bacteriophages, inducing activation of dendritic cells and enhancing antigen presentation and specific T cell response. Bacteriophage-encapsulated microneedles potentially can be administered into human body and generate robust immune responses.

Abstract
Foodborne infections are an important global health problem due to their high prevalence and potential for severe complications. Bacterial contamination of meat during processing at the enterprise can be a source of foodborne infections. Polymeric coatings with antibacterial properties can be applied to prevent bacterial contamination. A composite coating based on fluoroplast and Ag2O NPs can serve as such a coating. In present study, we, for the first time, created a composite coating based on fluoroplast and Ag2O NPs. Using laser ablation in water, we obtained spherical Ag2O NPs with an average size of 45 nm and a ζ-potential of -32 mV. The resulting Ag2O NPs at concentrations of 0.001-0.1% were transferred into acetone and mixed with a fluoroplast-based varnish. The developed coating made it possible to completely eliminate damage to a Teflon cutting board. The fluoroplast/Ag2O NP coating was free of defects and inhomogeneities at the nano level. The fluoroplast/Ag2O NP composite increased the production of ROS (H2O2, OH radical), 8-oxogualnine in DNA in vitro, and long-lived active forms of proteins. The effect depended on the mass fraction of the added Ag2O NPs. The 0.01-0.1% fluoroplast/NP Ag2O coating exhibited excellent bacteriostatic and bactericidal properties against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria but did not affect the viability of eukaryotic cells. The developed PTFE/NP Ag2O 0.01-0.1% coating can be used to protect cutting boards from bacterial contamination in the meat processing industry.

NANOIMPACT 2022; 28:100426. [PMID: 36096361 DOI: 10.1016/j.impact.2022.100426] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2022] [Revised: 09/02/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
We show that inorganic sulfides strongly influence transfer (migration) of nanoparticle mass out of polymer nanocomposites (PNCs) and into aqueous environments. We first manufactured two families of PNCs: one incorporating silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and one incorporating CdSe quantum dots (QDs). Then, we assessed migration out of these PNCs and into aqueous media containing Na2S at concentrations ranging from 0 to 10-4 M. Results show that Na2S strongly suppressed migration of Ag from AgNP-based PNCs: the migration into water spiked with 10-6 M Na2S was 79% less than migration into water without Na2S, and no migration was detected (LOD ≈ 0.01 ng/cm2) in water spiked with Na2S at 10-5 M or 10-4 M. With CdSe QD-based PNCs, Na2S suppressed Cd migration but enhanced Se migration, resulting in only a small net effect on the total QD migration but a large shift of the leachate composition (from favoring Cd by an average of 5.8 to 1 in pure water to favoring Se 9.4 to 1 when Na2S was present at 10-4 M). These results show that common inorganic substances like sulfides may play a strong role in determining the environmental fate of polymer-dispersed nanoparticles and imply that migration tests conducted in purified water may not always accurately reflect migration into real environments.

Abstract
Tissue engineering has emerged as an interesting field nowadays; it focuses on accelerating the auto-healing mechanism of tissues rather than organ transplantation. It involves implanting an In Vitro cultured initiative tissue or a scaffold loaded with tissue regenerating ingredients at the damaged area. Both techniques are based on the use of biodegradable, biocompatible polymers as scaffolding materials which are either derived from natural (e.g. alginates, celluloses, and zein) or synthetic sources (e.g. PLGA, PCL, and PLA). This review discusses in detail the recent applications of different biomaterials in tissue engineering highlighting the targeted tissues besides the in vitro and in vivo key findings. As well, smart biomaterials (e.g. chitosan) are fascinating candidates in the field as they are capable of elucidating a chemical or physical transformation as response to external stimuli (e.g. temperature, pH, magnetic or electric fields). Recent trends in tissue engineering are summarized in this review highlighting the use of stem cells, 3D printing techniques, and the most recent 4D printing approach which relies on the use of smart biomaterials to produce a dynamic scaffold resembling the natural tissue. Furthermore, the application of advanced tissue engineering techniques provides hope for the researchers to recognize COVID-19/host interaction, also, it presents a promising solution to rejuvenate the destroyed lung tissues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Recent studies developed low-shrinkage-stress composite with remineralizing and antibacterial properties to combat secondary caries and increase restoration longevity. However, their long-term durability in thermal cycling is unclear. The objectives of this study were to develop an antibacterial, remineralizing and low-shrinkage-stress composite, and to investigate its durability in thermal cycling for 20,000 cycles, equivalent to two years of clinical life. METHODS The resin consisted of urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) and triethylene glycol divinylbenzyl ether (TEG-DVBE). Composites were made with 5% dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and 20% of nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP). Composites were thermal cycled at 5°C and 55°C for 20,000 cycles. A human salivary biofilm model was used to evaluate antibiofilm activity before and after thermal cycling. RESULTS After 20,000 cycles, the flexural strength of bioactive low-shrinkage-stress composite matched commercial control with no antibacterial activity (p > 0.05). Surface roughness was clinically acceptable at less than 0.2 μm. UV+NACP+DMAHDM composite reduced the total microorganisms, total streptococci, and mutans streptococci by 2-5 logs, compared to commercial composite. Biofilm lactic acid production was reduced by 11 folds. The antibacterial performance was maintained after thermal cycling, with no decrease after 20,000 cycles. CONCLUSIONS Bioactive low-shrinkage-stress composite possessed good mechanical properties that matched commercial composite both before and after thermal cycling. The new composite had potent antibacterial activity, which was maintained and did not decrease after thermal cycling. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The new bioactive low-shrinkage-stress composite could reduce polymerization shrinkage stress and release calcium and phosphate ions, with good mechanical properties and strong antibacterial function that were durable after thermal cycling. These properties indicate great potential for inhibiting recurrent caries and increasing the restoration longevity.

Abstract
Abstract
Metal-based nanomaterials usually have broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, low biological toxicity, and no drug resistance due to their intrinsic enzyme-like catalytic properties and external field (magnetic, thermal, acoustic, optical, electrical) responsiveness. Herein, Iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (IONPs) synthesized by us have good biosafety, excellent photothermal conversion ability, and peroxidase-like catalytic activity, which can be used to construct a photothermal-enzymes combined antibacterial treatment platform. IONPs with peroxide-like catalytic activity can induce H2O2 to catalyze the production of •OH in a slightly acidic environment, thus achieving certain bactericidal effects and increasing the sensitivity of bacteria to heat. When stimulated by NIR light, the photothermal effect could destroy bacterial cell membranes, resulting in cleavage and inactivation of bacterial protein, DNA, or RNA. Meanwhile, it can also improve the catalytic activity of peroxidase-like, and promote IONPs to catalyze the production of more •OH for killing bacteria. After IONPs synergistic treatment, the antibacterial rate of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus reached nearly 100%. It also has an obvious killing effect on bacteria in infected wounds of mice, and can effectively promote the healing of S. aureus-infected wounds, which has great application potential in clinical anti-infection treatment.

Abstract
The biofilm community of microorganisms has been identified as the dominant mode of microbial growth in nature and a common characteristic of different microorganisms such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis. The biofilm structure helps in the protection from environmental threats including host immune system and antimicrobial agents. Thus, the biofilm community has led to a higher prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains in recent years. In this regard, the use of a new class of antibiotics, natural compounds, and anti-biofilm enzymes has been considered for the destruction of the microbial biofilm. However, different drawbacks such as low penetration, high susceptibility to degradation, instability, and poor solubility in aqueous solutions limit the use of anti-biofilm agents (ABAs) in a clinical setting. As such, recent studies have been using poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)-based nanoplatforms (PLGA NPFs) for delivery of ABAs that have reported promising results. These particles, due to proper drug loading and release kinetics, could suppress microbial attachment, colonization, and biofilm formation for a long time. Additionally, PLGA NPFs, because of the high drug-loading efficiencies, hydrophilic surface, negative charge, and electrostatic interaction, lead to effective penetration of antibiotics to the deeper layer of the biofilm, thereby eliminating the microbial biofilm. Thus, PLGA NPFs could be considered as a potential candidate for coating catheters and other medical material surfaces for inhibition and destruction of the microbial biofilm. However, the exact interaction of PLGA NPFs and the microbial biofilm should be evaluated in animal studies. Additionally, a future goal will be to develop PLGA formulations as systems that can be used for the treatment of the MDR microbial biofilm, since the exact interactions of PLGA NPFs and these biofilm structures are not elucidated. In the present review article, we have discussed various aspects of PLGA usage for inhibition and destruction of the microbial biofilm along with different methods and procedures that have been used for improving PLGA NPF efficacy against the microbial biofilm.

Abstract
Drug-free antibacterial strategies are of great significance for pathogenic bacterial infection treatment in clinical practice. Phototherapy with antibacterial function plays a vital role in mainstream germicidal research. However, phototherapy could lead to residual heat and excess reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are the main side-effects during antibacterial treatment. Unique CoFe2O4/MXene (CM) nanoenzymes, which were fabricated with electrostatic interactions, have been designed to conquer those challenges caused by side-effects of phototherapy in our research. The CM nanoenzymes possess many promising properties including photothermal and photodynamic induced phototherapy and mimic peroxidase (POD), glutathione oxidase (GSHOx), and catalase (CAT). Upon treatment with near-infrared (NIR) light, CM nanoenzymes can create a local high-temperature circumstance as well as raise bacterial membrane permeability. Furthermore, the photodynamic process and multi-enzyme-mimicking activities of CM enzymes boost the interbacterial ROS level. Herein, bacteria can hardly survive in synergistic phototherapy and multi-enzyme-mimicking catalytic therapy in vitro and in vivo. Meanwhile, the CM nanoenzymes exhibit excellent biocompatibility in vitro and in vivo. Overall, this research establishes a strong foundation for effectively employing nanoenzymes, leading to a new way to cure bacterial infections.

Abstract
In the last two decades, the importance of nanomaterials in modern technologies has been unquestionable. Metal nanoparticles are frequently used in many areas of science and technology, delivering unprecedented improvements to properties of the conventional materials. This work introduces an effective tool for preparing a highly enriched poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) surface with silver nanoparticles, firmly immobilized in the same surface area on polymer. We showed that besides pristine polymer, this approach may be successfully applied also on laser pre-treated PET with laser-induced periodic surface structures. At the same time, its final nanostructure may be effectively controlled by laser fluence applied during the immobilization process.

Abstract
Microwave (MW) hyperthermia has been widely studied in tumor therapy, while the lack of specificity, and the potential toxicity induced by instability or difficulty in degradation of existed MW thermal sensitizers still limits the application. Herein, a new biocompatible Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)-based nanosensitizer of Dtxl-Gd@PLGA-PEG-TPP (DGPPT) with capacities of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and mitochondrial targeting for MW hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy was constructed via a double emulsion solvent evaporation method. The modified TPP significantly enhanced the specificity of sensitizer for targeting mitochondria, a heat-sensitive energy supply plant in cells. Thus the MW thermal damage induced by the loaded Gd in PLGA nanospheres was also strengthened. Together, the system could also achieve MR imaging due to the existence of Gd. In addition, the encapsulated Dtxl performed the chemotherapy of inhibiting mitochondrial function for assisting with MW hyperthermia. In vivo experiments demonstrated that PLGA had high biocompatibility that no obvious damage occurred even the dose was up to 200 mg/kg. Meanwhile, DGPPT+MW representing the combination of mitochondrial targeting and MW hyperthermia-chemotherapy has also been proved to shrink tumor size effectively. This study provides a new direction for building biosafe and multifunctional MW sensitizer with active targeting ability to impede tumor growth.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Exosomes are naturally secreted nanovesicles that have emerged as a promising therapeutic nanodelivery platform due to their specific composition, biological properties, and stability. Modifying synthetic nanoparticles with the intrinsic hallmarks of exosome membrane to create exosome mimetics could lead to safe and efficient smart silencer delivery. OBJECTIVES The study focuses on exploring the combination of polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)-based nanoparticles with naturally occurring exosome membrane from M2 macrophages to deliver a Dnmt3aos smart silencer to treat allergic asthma (AA) in mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS Exosome membrane of M2 macrophages and PLGA nanoparticles (PLGA NPs) wrapped with the smart silencer of Dnmt3aos (Dnmt3aossmart silencer) were first synthesized. The resulting exosome membrane coated PLGA@Dnmt3aossmart silencer (EM-PLGA@Dnmt3aossmart silencer) was administered intravenously into Der f1-induced asthma mice, which was followed by the investigation of therapeutic outcomes and the mechanism in vivo. RESULTS Seven infusions of EM-PLGA@Dnmt3aossmart silencer ameliorated AA with a marked reduction of lung inflammation. After intravenous injection, the EM-PLGA@Dnmt3aossmart silencer was distributed in various organs, including the lungs, with retention over 48 h, and it targeted M2 macrophages. Moreover, the injections of EM-PLGA@Dnmt3aossmart silencer markedly decreased the proportion of M2 macrophages and inflammatory cytokines in the airway. More importantly, the EM-PLGA@Dnmt3aossmart silencer treatment did not obviously suppress the overall immune function of host. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this study provides the first experimental evidence of the ability of EM-PLGA@Dnmt3aossmart silencer to target M2 macrophages in the treatment of AA by combining exosome membrane and biomaterials, thus presenting a novel immunotherapy for the allergic disease.

Makvandi P, Chen M, Sartorius R, Zarrabi A, Ashrafizadeh M, Dabbagh Moghaddam F, Ma J, Mattoli V, Tay FR. Endocytosis of abiotic nanomaterials and nanobiovectors: Inhibition of membrane trafficking. NANO TODAY 2021; 40:101279. [PMID: 34518771 PMCID: PMC8425779 DOI: 10.1016/j.nantod.2021.101279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 59] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2020] [Revised: 08/05/2021] [Accepted: 08/19/2021] [Indexed: 05/04/2023]
Abstract
Humans are exposed to nanoscopical nanobiovectors (e.g. coronavirus SARS-CoV-2) as well as abiotic metal/carbon-based nanomaterials that enter cells serendipitously or intentionally. Understanding the interactions of cell membranes with these abiotic and biotic nanostructures will facilitate scientists to design better functional nanomaterials for biomedical applications. Such knowledge will also provide important clues for the control of viral infections and the treatment of virus-induced infectious diseases. In the present review, the mechanisms of endocytosis are reviewed in the context of how nanomaterials are uptaken into cells. This is followed by a detailed discussion of the attributes of man-made nanomaterials (e.g. size, shape, surface functional groups and elasticity) that affect endocytosis, as well as the different human cell types that participate in the endocytosis of nanomaterials. Readers are then introduced to the concept of viruses as nature-derived nanoparticles. The mechanisms in which different classes of viruses interact with various cell types to gain entry into the human body are reviewed with examples published over the last five years. These basic tenets will enable the avid reader to design advanced drug delivery and gene transfer nanoplatforms that harness the knowledge acquired from endocytosis to improve their biomedical efficacy. The review winds up with a discussion on the hurdles to be addressed in mimicking the natural mechanisms of endocytosis in nanomaterials design.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is an interdisciplinary complex lesson, including but not limited to materials science, biomechanics, immunology, and biology. Having witnessed impressive progress in the past decades in the development of bone substitutes; however, it must be said that the most suitable biomaterial for bone regeneration remains an area of intense debate. Since its discovery, poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) has been widely used in bone tissue engineering due to its good biocompatibility and adjustable biodegradability. This review systematically covers the past and the most recent advances in developing PLGA-based bone regeneration materials. Taking the different application forms of PLGA-based materials as the starting point, we describe each form's specific application and its corresponding advantages and disadvantages with many examples. We focus on the progress of electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds, three-dimensional (3D) printed scaffolds, microspheres/nanoparticles, hydrogels, multiphasic scaffolds, and stents prepared by other traditional and emerging methods. Finally, we briefly discuss the current limitations and future directions of PLGA-based bone repair materials. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: As a key synthetic biopolymer in bone tissue engineering application, the progress of PLGA-based bone substitute is impressive. In this review, we summarized the past and the most recent advances in the development of PLGA-based bone regeneration materials. According to the typical application forms and corresponding crafts of PLGA-based substitutes, we described the development of electrospinning nanofibrous scaffolds, 3D printed scaffolds, microspheres/nanoparticles, hydrogels, multiphasic scaffolds and scaffolds fabricated by other manufacturing process. Finally, we briefly discussed the current limitations and proposed the newly strategy for the design and fabrication of PLGA-based bone materials or devices.

Abstract
An antimicrobial supramolecular assembly (ASA) is conspicuous in biomedical applications. Among the alternatives to overcome microbial resistance to antibiotics and drugs, ASAs, including antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and polymers (APs), provide formulations with optimal antimicrobial activity and acceptable toxicity. AMPs and APs have been delivered by a variety of carriers such as nanoparticles, coatings, multilayers, hydrogels, liposomes, nanodisks, lyotropic lipid phases, nanostructured lipid carriers, etc. They have similar mechanisms of action involving adsorption to the cell wall, penetration across the cell membrane, and microbe lysis. APs, however, offer the advantage of cheap synthetic procedures, chemical stability, and improved adsorption (due to multipoint attachment to microbes), as compared to the expensive synthetic routes, poor yield, and subpar in vivo stability seen in AMPs. We review recent advances in polymer-based antimicrobial assemblies involving AMPs and APs.
