Abstract
Developing modifiable natural products those having antiviral activities against SARS-CoV-2 is a key research area which is popular in current scenario of COVID pandemic. A diaryl heptanoid curcumin and its derivatives are already presenting promising candidates for anti-viral drug development. We have synthesized single crystals of a dimethylamino derivative of natural curcumin and structural characterization was done by single crystal XRD analysis. Using steady-state absorption and emission spectra and guided by complimentary ab initio calculations, we unraveled the solvent effects on the photophysical properties of the dimethyl amino curcumin derivative. Chemical reactivity of the compound has investigated using frontier molecular orbitals and molecular electrostatic potential surface. High stability of the curcumin derivative in water environment has evaluated by Radial Distributions Functions (RDF) calculated via Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. The inhibitory activity of the title compound was evaluated by in silico methods and the stability of the protein-ligand complexes were studied using Molecular Dynamics simulations and MM-PBSA analysis. With this detailed study, we hope to motivate scientific community to develop new curcumin derivatives against SARS-CoV-2 virus.

Abstract
Despite having tremendous medicinal benefits, the practical applications of curcumin are limited, owing to two major challenges: poor aqueous solubility and lack of bioavailability. In this regard, biosurfactant-based micellar systems have surged recently for the development of novel and more effective formulations because of their biological relevance. This study deals with a comprehensive and comparative investigation on the effect of seven structurally different steroidal surfactants on the photophysical properties of curcumin and also evaluates these steroidal surfactants as possible drug delivery media for curcumin. The photophysical properties of curcumin exhibited a strong dependence on the structure of the steroidal surfactant; the extent of excited-state proton transfer between curcumin and the surfactants depends strongly on the type of the side chain in the surfactants, which mostly dictates the photophysics of curcumin in the presence of these structural variants. The solubility of curcumin and its stability at different pHs and temperatures and in the presence of salt are significantly enhanced in the presence of these surfactants. Furthermore, the curcumin-loaded micelles exhibited improved intracellular uptake and cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cancer cells than pristine curcumin. Among these steroidal surfactants, CHAPS, the zwitterionic derivative of cholic acid, was the most efficient one to offer better solubility and stability to curcumin under all conditions, and the death rate of MCF-7 cells by curcumin was found to be the highest in the presence of CHAPS, indicating the enhanced bioavailability of curcumin. Therefore, CHAPS-based colloids are found to be promising candidates as potential drug carriers for curcumin.

Abstract
Currently, nanotechnology is considered a promising strategy to enhance drug solubility and other physicochemical properties. Albumin is a biopolymer that can be used in drug delivery systems due to its biodegradability and biocompatibility. The aim of this study was to prepare and characterize albumin nanoparticles with chlorambucil as a controlled drug delivery system. Different concentrations of chlorambucil were incubated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) in order to prepare nanoparticles using the desolvation method. As a result, nanoparticles in sizes ranging from 199.6 to 382.6 nm exhibiting high encapsulation efficiency of chlorambucil were obtained. A spectroscopic study revealed concentration-dependent changes in secondary structure of the albumin chain and in the hydrophobicity of chlorambucil. Based on the results obtained, it was concluded that the investigated structures may be used in the development of a drug delivery system.

Abstract
The naturally occurring polyphenolic compound curcumin has shown various medicinal and therapeutic effects. However, there are various challenges associated with curcumin, which limits its biomedical applications, such as its high degradation rate and low aqueous solubility at neutral and alkaline pH. In the present study, efforts have been directed towards trying to resolve such issues by encapsulating curcumin inside the micelles formed by imidazolium-based surface-active ionic liquid (SAIL). The shape and size of the micelles formed by the SAIL have been characterized by using DLS analysis as well as TEM measurements. The photo-physics of curcumin in the presence of ionic liquid (IL) and also with the addition of salt (NaCl) has been explored by using different optical spectroscopic tools. The time-dependent absorption studies have shown that there is relatively higher suppression in the degradation rate of curcumin after encapsulation by the imidazolium-based SAIL in an aqueous medium. The TCSPC studies have revealed that there is deactivation in the nonradiative intramolecular hydrogen transfer process of curcumin in the presence of IL micelles as well as with the addition of salt. Furthermore, the time-dependent fluorescence anisotropy measurement has been carried out to figure out the location of curcumin inside the micellar system. In order to correlate all experimental findings, density functional theory (DFT) and classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at neutral pH media have been performed. It has been found that the van der Waals force of interactions plays a major role in the stabilization of curcumin in the micelles rather than the coulombic forces. It also has been observed that the van der Waals interactions remain unaffected in the presence of salt. However, as revealed by the MD simulation results, the micelles are found to be more compact in size after the addition of salt. The RMSD results show that the micelles formed by the SAIL achieve greater stability after a particular time constraint. Our results have divulged that the SAIL could act as a promising drug delivery system.

Abstract
Polymer micelles are an attractive means to solubilize water insoluble compounds such as drugs. Drug loading, formulations stability and control over drug release are crucial factors for drug-loaded polymer micelles. The interactions between the polymeric host and the guest molecules are considered critical to control these factors but typically barely understood. Here, we compare two isomeric polymer micelles, one of which enables ultra-high curcumin loading exceeding 50 wt.%, while the other allows a drug loading of only 25 wt.%. In the low capacity micelles, steady-state fluorescence revealed a very unusual feature of curcumin fluorescence, a high energy emission at 510 nm. Time-resolved fluorescence upconversion showed that the fluorescence life time of the corresponding species is too short in the high-capacity micelles, preventing an observable emission in steady-state. Therefore, contrary to common perception, stronger interactions between host and guest can be detrimental to the drug loading in polymer micelles.

Abstract
A new gradient copolymer has been synthesized by the living cationic ring-opening polymerization of hydrophilic 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline with lipophilic 2-(4-dodecyloxyphenyl)-2-oxazoline (EtOx-grad-DPOx). The prepared copolymer is capable of assembling in water to yield polymeric nanoparticles that are successfully loaded with an anticancer agent, curcumin. Self-assembly of the copolymer was found to be tuned by the polarity as well as the hydrogen bonding ability of solvents. Solvent took distinctive role in the preparation of unloaded and curcumin-loaded nanoparticles. The stability of the nanoparticles was increased by curcumin loading promoted by curcumin-polymer interactions. Further, the chemical stability of curcumin in water is largely enhanced inside the polymeric nanoparticles. Curcumin-loaded (EtOx-grad-DPOx) copolymer nanoparticles showed excellent stability in the biological medium, low cytotoxicity, and concentration dependent uptake by U87 MG and HeLa cells, which indicate the possibility of their efficient application in drug delivery.

Abstract
Sophorolipid biosurfactants are biodegradable, less toxic and FDA approved. The purified acidic form of sophorolipid is stimuli-responsive with self-assembling properties and used for solubilizing hydrophobic drugs. This study encapsulated curcumin (CU) with acidic sophorolipid (ASL) micelles and analysed using photophysical studies like UV-visible spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC). TEM images have revealed ellipsoid micelles of approximately 100 nm size and were confirmed by dynamic light scattering. The bacterial fluorescence uptake studies showed the uptake of formed CUASL nanostructures into both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. They also showed quorum quenching activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The results have demonstrated this system has potential theranostic applications.

Abstract
This paper demonstrates the photophysics of curcumin inside polymeric nanoparticles (NPs), which are being recently used as targeted drug delivery vehicles. For this purpose, we have prepared three polymeric NPs by ultrasonication method from three well-defined water-insoluble random copolymers. These copolymers having various degrees of hydrophobicity were synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation transfer (RAFT) method using styrene and three different functional monomers, namely, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 4-formylphenyl acrylate, and 4-vinylbenzyl chloride. The photophysics of the curcumin molecules inside the polymeric NPs have been monitored by applying tools like steady state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. An increase in fluorescence intensity along with an increase in the lifetime values indicated a perturbation of the excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process of curcumin inside the polymeric NPs.
