Abstract
Among the most harmful tumors detected in the human body, such as breast, colon, brain or pancreas, breast (BC) and colorectal cancer (CRC) are the first and third most frequent cancer worldwide, respectively. The current existing chemotherapeutic treatments present serious side effects due to their intravenous administration can induce cytotoxicity in healthy cells. Thus, new treatment methods based on drug-loaded polymeric nanofibers (NFs) have gained significant potential for their use in localized cancer chemotherapy. Here, a deep in vitro comparative analysis between maslinic acid (MA) and a tyramine-maslinic acid (TMA) derivative is initially performed. This analysis includes a proliferation, and a cell cycle assay, and a genotoxicity, antiangiogenic and apoptosis study. Then, the TMA derivative has been incorporated into electrospun polymeric NFs obtaining an implantable dressing material with antitumor activity. Two types of patches containing TMA-loaded polymeric NFs of poly(caprolactone) (PCL), and a mixture of polylactic acid/poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PLA/PVP) were fabricated by the electrospinning technique. The characterization of the drug-loaded NFs showed an encapsulation capacity of 0.027 mg TMA/mg PCL and 0.024 mg TMA/mg PLA/PVP. Then, the cytotoxic activity of both polymeric systems was tested in CRC (T84), BC (MCF-7) and a no tumor (L929) cell lines exposed to TMA-loaded NFs and blank NFs for 48 h. Moreover, cell cycle assay, genotoxicity, angiogenesis and apoptosis tests were carried out to study the mechanism of action of TMA. Blank NFs showed no-toxicity in all cell lines tested and both drug-loaded NFs significantly reduced cell proliferation (relative proliferation of ≈44 % and ≈25 % respectively). Therefore, TMA was less genotoxic than maslinic acid (MA), and reduced VEGFA expression in MCF-7 cells (1.32 and 2.12-fold for MA and TMA respectively). These results showed that TMA-loaded NFs could constitute a promising biocompatible and biodegradable nanoplatform for the local treatment of solid tumors such as CRC or BC.

Abstract
Melanoma cancer wound healing is critical and complex and poses a significant challenge to researchers. Drug resistance, adverse side effects, and inefficient localization of chemotherapeutic drugs limit common treatment strategies in melanoma cancer. Using drug delivery nanostructures with low side effects and high efficiency, besides having antibacterial and antiseptic properties, can effectively repair the damage caused by the disease. To this end, this study aimed to develop a drug delivery nanosystem based on doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded amine-functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), linked with green synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Characterization methods including microscopic methods and X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the synthesis and functionalization of the well-dispersed nanoparticles with nanosized and uniform structures. The poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) nanofibers as a strong scaffold were produced by the blow spinning method and DOX-loaded nanoparticles were blow spun on PCL nanofibers along with gelatin solution. The resulting nanosystem including nanofibers and nanoparticles (NFs/NPS) showed a fine loading percent with a proper release profile of DOX and AgNPs and low hemolysis activity. Moreover, besides preventing infection by AgNPs, the DOX-loaded NFs/NPs could effectively destroy melanoma cancer cells. The attachment of normal cells to the nanoparticles-loaded nanofibers scaffold revealed the possibility of healing wounds caused by melanoma cancer.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most serious bone malignancy, and the survival rate has not significantly improved in the past 40 years. Thus, it is urgent to develop a new strategy for OS treatment. Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) as a novel therapeutic method can destroy cancer cells by converting endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) into highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH). However, the therapeutic efficacy of CDT is severely limited by the low catalytic efficiency and overexpressed glutathione (GSH). Herein, an excellent nanocatalytic platform is constructed via a simple solvothermal method using F127 as a soft template to form the hollow copper ferrite (HCF) nanoparticle, followed by the coating of polydopamine on the surface and the loading of doxorubicin (DOX). The Fe3+ and Cu2+ released from HCF@polydopamine (HCFP) can deplete GSH through the redox reactions, and then trigger the H2 O2 to generate ·OH by Fenton/Fenton-like reaction, resulting in enhanced CDT efficacy. Impressively, the photothermal effect of HCFP can further enhance the efficiency of CDT and accelerate the release of DOX. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments reveal that the synergistic chemodynamic/photothermal/chemo-therapy exhibits a significantly enhanced anti-OS effect. This work provides a promising strategy for OS treatment.

Abstract
The development of a simple local drug-delivery system that exhibits the advantages of macro- and microscale carriers with controllable drug-release behavior is still highly desired. Herein, in this work, a smart temporary film was prepared from doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded shape-memory microgels via a simple hot-compression programming method. The temporary film showed a very smooth surface and easy handing, as well as macroscopy mechanical properties, which could disintegrate into the microgels with heating at 45 °C. In this case, the temporary film showed a controllable DOX release behavior when compared with the microgels, which could release the DOX on demand. Consequently, the temporary film exhibited weaker cytotoxicity to normal cells and a much longer antitumor capability, as well as a higher drug-utilization efficiency when compared with microgels. Therefore, the smart temporary film has high potential as a candidate for use as a local drug-delivery system.

Abstract
Nanosized metal oxide-incorporated drug carriers have received significant attention due to their biocompatibility, mechanical strength, controlled drug release, and biodegradability. Herein, an attempt was made to fabricate polycaprolactone-based electrospun nanofiber mats involving the 5-fluorouracil (5Fu) drug, MgO nanoparticle, methyl cellulose, and polyethylene glycol. The chemical interactions, surface wettability, mechanical properties, structural and morphological changes, and thermal stability were studied by the respective analyses. The ionic interaction between 5Fu, MgO, and polymers were found to be responsible for the controlled drug release. Zero-order kinetic and model data also revealed that a controlled drug release pattern was observed in a period of 16 days. Furthermore, the nanofiber mats were subjected to cytotoxicity studies against MDA-MB-231 cancer cell line and the results showed higher cytotoxicity in a short time of 24 h and less toxicity to normal L929 fibroblast cell line. The apoptosis in cancer cell lines was also tested by AO/PI staining assay and confirmed by fluorescence microscopy. In addition, the growth inhibition of several bacterial and fungal strains was tested for the mats and the results exhibited good inhibition activity. Hence, the reported nanofiber drug carrier was found to be an efficient implant for the controlled release of anticancer drug along with other significant properties.

Abstract
Several recent advances have emerged in biotherapy and the development of personal drugs. However, studies exploring effective manufacturing methods of personal drugs remain limited. In this study, solid drugs based on poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogel and doxorubicin were fabricated, and their final geometry was varied through UV-light patterning. The results suggested that the final drug concentration was affected by the geometrical volume as well as the UV-light exposure time. The analysis of PEGDA showed no effect on the surrounding cells, indicating its high biocompatibility. However, with the addition of doxorubicin, it showed an excellent therapeutic effect, indicating that drugs inside the PEGDA structure could be successfully released. This approach enables personal drugs to be fabricated in a simple, fast, and uniform manner, with perfectly tuned geometry.

Abstract
Currently, cancer chemotherapeutic drugs still have the defects of high toxicity and low bioavailability, so it is critical to design novel drug release systems for cancer chemotherapy. Here, we report a method to fabricate electrospun drug-loaded organic/inorganic hybrid nanofibrous system for antitumor therapy applications. In this work, rod-like attapulgite (ATT) was utilized to load a model anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX), and mixed with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) to form electrospun hybrid nanofibers. The ATT/DOX/PLGA composite nanofibers were characterized through various techniques. It is feasible to load DOX onto ATT surfaces, and the ATT/DOX/PLGA nanofibers show a smooth and uniform morphology with improved mechanical durability. Under neutral and acidic pH conditions, the loaded DOX was released from ATT/DOX/PLGA nanofibers in a sustained manner. In addition, the released DOX from the nanofibers could significantly inhibit the growth of tumor cells. Owing to the significantly reduced burst release profile and increased mechanical durability of the ATT/DOX/PLGA nanofibers, the designed organic–inorganic hybrid nanofibers may hold great promise as a nanoplatform to encapsulate different drugs for enhanced local tumor therapy applications.

Abstract
The review provides insights into current advancements in electrospinning-assisted manufacturing for optimally designing biomedical devices for their prospective applications in tissue engineering, wound healing, drug delivery, sensing, and enzyme immobilization, and others. Further, the evolution of electrospinning-based hybrid biomedical devices using a combined approach of 3 D printing and/or film casting/molding, to design dimensionally stable membranes/micro-nanofibrous assemblies/patches/porous surfaces, etc. is reported. The influence of various electrospinning parameters, polymeric material, testing environment, and other allied factors on the morphological and physico-mechanical properties of electrospun (nano-/micro-fibrous) mats (EMs) and fibrous assemblies have been compiled and critically discussed. The spectrum of operational research and statistical approaches that are now being adopted for efficient optimization of electrospinning process parameters so as to obtain the desired response (physical and structural attributes) has prospectively been looked into. Further, the present review summarizes some current limitations and future perspectives for modeling architecturally novel hybrid 3 D/selectively textured structural assemblies, such as biocompatible, non-toxic, and bioresorbable mats/scaffolds/membranes/patches with apt mechanical stability, as biological substrates for various regenerative and non-regenerative therapeutic devices.

Abstract
Among the strategies to fight cancer, multi-therapeutic approaches are considered as a wise choice to put in place multiple weapons to suppress tumors. In this work, to combine chemotherapeutic effects to magnetic hyperthermia when using biocompatible scaffolds, we have established an electrospinning method to produce nanofibers of polycaprolactone loaded with magnetic nanoparticles as heat mediators to be selectively activated under alternating magnetic field and doxorubicin as a chemotherapeutic drug. Production of the fibers was investigated with iron oxide nanoparticles of peculiar cubic shape (at 15 and 23 nm in cube edges) as they provide benchmark heat performance under clinical magnetic hyperthermia conditions. With 23 nm nanocubes when included into the fibers, an arrangement in chains was obtained. This linear configuration of magnetic nanoparticles resemble that of the magnetosomes, produced by magnetotactic bacteria, and our magnetic fibers exhibited remarkable heating effects as the magnetosomes. Magnetic fiber scaffolds showed excellent biocompatibility on fibroblast cells when missing the chemotherapeutic agent and when not exposed to magnetic hyperthermia as shown by viability assays. On the contrary, the fibers containing both magnetic nanocubes and doxorubicin showed significant cytotoxic effects on cervical cancer cells following the exposure to magnetic hyperthermia. Notably, these tests were conducted at magnetic hyperthermia field conditions of clinical use. As here shown, on the doxorubicin sensitive cervical cancer cells, the combination of heat damage by magnetic hyperthermia with enhanced diffusion of doxorubicin at therapeutic temperature are responsible for a more effective oncotherapy.

Abstract
Simultaneous prevention of bone tumor recurrence and promotion of repairing bone defects resulting from tumorectomy remain a challenge. Herein, we report a polydopamine (PDA)-coated composite scaffold consisting of doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded lamellar hydroxyapatite (LHAp) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) in an attempt to reach dual functions of tumor inhibition and bone repair. The DOX was intercalated into LHAp, and the DOX-loaded LHAp was incorporated into PLGA solution to prepare a DOX-intercalated LHAp/PLGA (labeled as DH/PLGA) scaffold that was coated with PDA to obtain a PDA@DH/PLGA scaffold. The morphology, structure, wettability, mechanical properties, drug release, biocompatibility, and in vitro and in vivo bioactivities of the PDA@DH/PLGA scaffold were evaluated. It is found that PDA coating not only improves hydrophilicity and mechanical properties, but also leads to more sustainable drug release. More importantly, the PDA@DH/PLGA scaffold shows significantly inhibited growth of tumor cells initially and subsequent improved adhesion and proliferation of osteoblasts. In addition, the PDA coating improves the bioactivity of the DH/PLGA scaffold as suggested by the in vitro biomineralization. Further in vivo study demonstrates the improved bone growth around PDA@DH/PLGA over DH/PLGA after 20 days of drug release. The dual functional PDA@DH/PLGA scaffold shows great promise in the treatment of bone tumor.

Abstract
Electrospun nanofibers regarding their special features, including high drug loading capacity, high surface to volume area, flexibility, and ease of production and operation, are of great interest for being used in tissue engineering, and drug delivery approaches. In this context, several studies have been done for the production of biodegradable and biocompatible scaffolds containing different anticancer agents for fighting with solid tumors. Surprisingly, these scaffolds are able to deliver different combinations of drugs and agents, such as nanoparticles and release them in a time dependent manner. Here in this review, we summarize the principles of electrospinning and their uses in entrapment of drugs and anti-proliferative agents suitable for cancer therapy. The latest studies performed on treating cancer using electrospinning are mentioned and their advantages and disadvantages over conventional treatment methods are discussed.

Abstract
The design of appropriate materials is required for biomedical applications (e.g. drug delivery systems) in improving people's health care processes. This study focused on the incorporation of nanosized hydroxyapatite (n-HA) with different ratios (ranging from 0.1 wt% to 0.5 wt%) into the poly (ε-caprolactone)/ poly (ethylene oxide) (PCL/PEO) blend matrix loaded or unloaded with curcumin. Composite fibrous material systems were successfully fabricated by the electrospinning technique without the occurrence of bead defects. In addition to the morphological and physicochemical properties of the material systems obtained, the in vitro curcumin release performance was investigated. Further, anti-cancer activity against breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) was examined by MTT assay. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction characterizations of the fabricated fibrous materials exhibited the interaction of PCL/PEO, n-HA, and curcumin. The 0.3 wt% n-HA incorporated fibrous materials showed a much slower curcumin release manner along with the highest cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cells. The findings obtained from this research are expected to contribute to the appropriate design of nanofiber-based composite materials not only for drug delivery systems but also for the fabrication of biomaterials toward different biomedical applications.

Abstract
In bone cancer treatment, local delivery of chemotherapeutic agents is preferred compared to other routes of administration. Delivery of multiple drugs using biodegradable carriers improves the treatment efficiency and overcomes drug resistance and toxicity. With this approach, we have developed multilayer biodegradable core shell nanoparticles (NPs) using the electro-spraying technique to deliver methotrexate (MTX) and doxorubicin (DOX) for the treatment of osteosarcoma. These core-shell NPs with a mean particle size of 212 ± 41 nm consist of hydroxyapatite (HA) and DOX as core with the outer shell made of chitosan (CH) followed by polycaprolactone (PCL) with MTX. The encapsulation efficiency of MTX was around 85% and DOX was 38%. In vitro drug release studies were performed in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at pH 5 and pH 7.4 for 8 days. Different release profiles were observed in both acidic and alkaline pH. The sequential release of MTX followed by DOX was observed in both pH in sustained manner. Human osteosarcoma MG 63 (OMG-63) cells lines were used to test the cytotoxicity of drug loaded NPs. Multi-drug encapsulated bioresorbable and biodegradable electro-sprayed core shell NPs will be promising as a bone substitute for the treatment of osteosarcoma.

Abstract
The treatment of cancer has always been a worldwide problem. The combination of chemotherapy and other therapies would be a promising therapy strategy. Photothermal therapy (PTT) does not cause serious side effects and has dual control of time and space, which was considered to be a good method for combination with chemotherapy. Here, we modified multifunctional nanosheets based on in-situ gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) grown molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) to combine their excellent photothermal conversion and drug loading capabilities. More importantly, the target peptide cRGD modified nanosheets have good selectivity to tumor cells rich in integrin receptors, and drug loading and drug release tests showed that it could carry enough chemotherapeutic drugs and had excellent photo controlled release performance. In vitro cell experiments showed that the drug-loaded multifunctional nanosheets had good anti-tumor effect under 808 nm laser irradiation. Therefore, the multifunctional nanosheets designed in this paper have great potential in the study of targeted drug release and chemo-photothermal therapy combined therapy, and are of great significance for in vivo and clinical research.

Abstract
Multi-responsive polymeric nanoparticles have shown great promise in the sufficient site-specific delivery of drugs in heterogeneous and complicated biological microenvironments, but without great success due to many problems such as sophisticated manufacture process, high cost and cytotoxicity. In this work, a novel triple responsive dendrimeric nanocage (TDN) is fabricated through co-assembling and cross-linking of lipoic acid modified low generation dendrimers with lipoic acid modified polyethylene glycols (PEGs). This nanocage exhibits improved drug loading capacity (about 2 times higher) at a lower temperature and stimuli-responsive drug release profile upon the stimulation of temperature, acid pH and reducing agent. More importantly, the nanocage promotes drug internalization, conduces endosomal escape, and realizes intracellular controlled drug release. Furthermore, the nanocage significantly improves the pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of antitumor drugs, confirming the potent in vivo therapeutic effect with reduced side effects. The rational design and facile fabrication of multi-responsive dendrimeric nanocages provide a "proof-of-concept" for precise targeted drug delivery, and may have great potential for clinical use in the future.

A facile way for development of three-dimensional localized drug delivery system for bone tissue engineering. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING.

Abstract
Removing malignant bone tumors results in critical size bone defects. These voids in bones should be filled by a proper scaffold that not only can support cell ingrowth and bone regeneration but also it has to show a desirable ability in long-term releasing anticancer drugs in order to prevent the growth of remaining cancer cells. Applying this scaffold can significantly improve the outcome of bone tumors treatment. In this study, a novel way is proposed for immobilization of doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded polycaproloactone (PCL) microparticles on the hardystonite (HT) scaffold surfaces. High interconnected porous HT scaffolds with immobilized DOX-encapsulated PCL microparticles can be successfully fabricated by modified water/oil/water method. In the present work, we verify a slow release of DOX over 30 days from PCL microparticles inside HT scaffold. Our developed HT scaffolds with the long-term release of DOX are more effective in reduction of Saos-2 cancer cells viability and induce higher degrees of apoptosis compared to DOX dip coated HT scaffolds. Encapsulating DOX into PCL microparticles significantly improves the anti-tumor activity of DOX by regulating the expression of apoptosis-related genes. Our results suggest that by immobilization of polymeric vehicles on the ceramic scaffold for controlled drug release, we can achieve high efficiency in apoptosis of cancer cells.

Abstract
In this study, we have successfully doped hydroxyapatite (HA) with zinc (Zn2+), sulphate (SO42-) and fluoride (F-) ions to develop a new composition of bioceramic, Ca10-x Znx(PO4)6-y(SO4)y(OH)2-z-yFz(SO4)y, (x = 0, 0.2, 0.6, 1.0, y = 0, 0.5 and z = 0,1.0 mol), using wet precipitation method. The obtained materials were analysed using XRD, FTIR, FESEM, and XPS techniques to investigate the phase purity, particle morphology and elemental composition, respectively. A model anticancer drug (Doxorubicin, DOX) was loaded onto the surface of the Zn/SO4-FHA materials. About 100% loading of DOX with a controlled release profile was obtained. Degradation of materials in Simulated body fluid (SBF) was greatly improved with the incorporation of Zn2+/SO42- ions in comparison to HA/FHA, which makes it highly bioactive materials. In vitro cell viability and adhesion of Human fetal osteoblast (hFOB) cell were investigated. Cell viability has demonstrated that the hFOB cells proliferated at a high rate on Zn/SO4-FHA materials, confirming the in vitro biocompatibility of the materials. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and intracellular calcium deposition of hFOB cells seeded on 1ZnSO4-FHA disc surface was statistically higher than observed on pure HA and FHA discs, indicating that hFOB cells differentiated into mature osteoblasts on 1Zn/SO4-FHA disc surfaces. Taken together, our results suggest that HA substituted by (Zn2+, 0.2 mol), (SO42-, 0.5 mol) and (F-, 1 mol) (1Zn/SO4-FHA) material was a promising material for hard tissue scaffolds.

Abstract
Combining anticancer drugs with inorganic nanocrystals to construct multifunctional hybrid nanostructures has become a powerful tool for cancer treatment and tumor suppression. However, it remains a critical challenge to synthesize compact, multifunctional nanostructures with improved functionality and reproducibility. In this study, we report the fabrication of magnetite hybrid nanostructures employing Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) to form multifunctional magnetite nanoclusters (NCs) by combining an oil-in-water microemulsion assembly and a layer-by-layer (LBL) method. The Fe3O4 NCs were firstly prepared via a microemulsion self-assembly technique. Then, polyelectrolyte layers composed of poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) and doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) were capped on Fe3O4 NCs to construct the Fe3O4 NC/PAH/PSS/DOX hybrid nanostructures via LBL method. The as-prepared hybrid nanostructures loaded with DOX demonstrated the pH-responsive drug release and higher cytotoxicity towards human lung cancer (A549) cells in vitro and can serve as T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents, which can significantly improve T2 relaxivity and lead to a better cellular MRI contrast effect. The loaded DOX emitting red signals under excitation with 490 nm are suitable for bioimaging applications. This work provides a novel strategy to build a Fe3O4-based multifunctional theranostic nanoplatform with T2-weighted MRI, fluorescence imaging, and drug delivery.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO)/poly (lactide-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) scaffolds have promising applications in the biomedical field. However, greater attention is focused on the incorporated system and its applications in normal cells. In this work, a novel GO immobilized PLGA nanofibrous scaffold assisted by polydopamine (PLGA-PDA-GO) is developed for growth inhibition of HT-29 colon cancer cells. The interactions between GO and PDA are attributed to a π-π conjugate interaction and electrostatic attraction. In addition to the enhancement of thermal stability and mechanical strength, the surface roughness, hydrophilicity, and electro-activity of the scaffolds are significantly improved by immobilization of GO. The scaffolds show good inhibition of HT-29, and immobilized GO is observed to be in contact with but not internalized in HT-29 cells. The cytotoxicity mechanism of scaffolds toward HT-29 is attributed to intracellular activated reactive oxygen species that result from the physical interaction of the sharp GO edges and electrical signals of π-π stacking between PDA and GO.

Abstract
AbstractConventional pharmaceuticals generally display the inability to transport active ingredients directly to specific regions of the body, amongst some of their main limitations. The distribution of the drugs in the circulatory system may lead to undesired toxicity, and therefore, adverse reactions. To address this situation, a selective transport of drugs is required, that is, releasing drugs specifically to the site of action in appropriate concentrations and in the right time. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to develop delivery systems that respond to several features, such as low toxicity, optimum properties for the transport and release of the drug, as well as a long half-life in the body. This feature paper critically provides an overview of different strategies of controlled drug release for two model antineoplasic drugs, i.e. doxorubicin (DOX) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Any of the presented strategies for drug release possess advantages and disadvantages, and the selection of the strategy used will depend on the targeted tissue and nature of the drug.

Abstract
We report the fabrication of electrospun nanofibers of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) with a fast release profile for biomedical applications. In this work, PLGA was first covalently modified with methoxy poly (ethylene glycol) amine (mPEG-NH2). The formed PEGylated PLGA (PLGA-PEG) was then mixed with a model drug amoxicillin (AMX) for subsequent fabrication of drug-loaded electrospun nanofibers. The synthesized PLGA-PEG conjugate and the formed drug-loaded PLGA-PEG nanofibers were characterized using different techniques. We show that the modification of PEG does not lead to an appreciable change in the uniform and smooth morphology of PLGA nanofibers. Importantly, the PEGylation modification affords a faster release profile of the encapsulated drug than pure PLGA nanofibers without PEGylation, which may be ascribed to the improved hydrophilicity of the PLGA-PEG polymer. Furthermore, antibacterial activity assay data reveal that the drug-loaded PLGA-PEG nanofibers are able to inhibit the growth of a model bacterium S. aureus. Finally, the hemocompatibility of the drug-loaded PLGA-PEG nanofibers was evaluated by hemolysis and anticoagulant assays, and the cytocompatibility of the fibers was confirmed by cell viability assay and cell morphology observation. We show that the formed drug-loaded PLGA-PEG nanofibers have an excellent hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. The developed electrospun PLGA-PEG nanofibers may find various applications in the fields of tissue engineering and pharmaceutical sciences.

Abstract
Tumor-targeted drug delivery systems have been increasingly used to improve the therapeutic efficiency of anticancer drugs and reduce their toxic side effects in vivo. Focused on this point, doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanorods consisting of folic acid (FA) modification (DOX@HAP-FA) were developed for efficient antitumor treatment. The DOX-loaded nanorods were synthesized through in situ coprecipitation and hydrothermal method with a DOX template, demonstrating a new procedure for drug loading in HAP materials. DOX could be efficiently released from DOX@HAP-FA within 24 h in weakly acidic buffer solution (pH = 6.0) because of the degradation of HAP nanorods. With endocytosis under the mediation of folate receptors, the nanorods exhibited enhanced cellular uptake and further degraded, and consequently, the proliferation of targeted cells was inhibited. More importantly, in a tumor-bearing mouse model, DOX@HAP-FA treatment demonstrated excellent tumor growth inhibition. In addition, no apparent side effects were observed during the treatment. These results suggested that DOX@HAP-FA may be a promising nanotherapeutic agent for effective cancer treatment in vivo.

Abstract
The integration of anticancer drugs and inorganic nanocrystals in polymer nanocapsules is a widely used strategy to improve their functionality, stability and sustained release. However, the complexity in the preparation of functional nanocapsules and their reproducibility still challenge these promising drug carriers in clinical application. Here we introduce a simple one-step self-assembly strategy to prepare multifunctional nanocapsules based on simultaneous poly (DL-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) encapsulation of antitumor drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) and NaYF4:Yb,Er@NaGdF4 upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) for cancer cell imaging and drug delivery. The obtained PLGA(UCNPs/DOX) nanocapsules with a small size of ≈150 nm possessed bright upconversion fluorescence and could act as T 1- weighted contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Moreover, the PLGA(UCNPs/DOX) nanocapsules exhibited pH-responsive drug releasing behavior, causing the loaded DOX easily releasing at cancer cells, and an obvious cytotoxicity via MTT assay. The endocytosis process of PLGA (UCNPs/DOX) nanocapsules is evaluated using optical microscopy and upconversion fluorescence microscopy. These results demonstrated that the developed PLGA nanocapsules could serve as multifunctional drug delivery systems for cancer imaging and therapy.

Abstract
Great efforts have been devoted to effective delivery of therapeutics into cells for cancer therapy. The exploration of nanoparticle based drug delivery systems (DDSs) faces daunting challenges in low efficacy of intracellular delivery. Herein, a localized drug delivery device consisting of photoluminescent mesoporous silica nanoparticles (PLMSNs) and photothermal fibrous matrix was investigated. Specifically, PLMSNs modified with a pH-sensitive polydopamine (PDA) 'gatekeeper' served as a doxorubicin (DOX) carrier and could release DOX once the PLMSNs were up-taken by the cancer cells. The PLMSNs were electrostatically assembled on the surface of electrospun biodegradable poly(ε-caprolactone)/gelatin fibrous mesh incorporated with photothermal carbon nanoparticles (CNPs), leading to an implantable patch used as localized delivery platform. Comparing to free particulate DDSs, this implantable composite patch device was found to significantly enable superior cell up-taking effect and consequently enhance in-vitro therapeutic efficacy against tumor cells. Namely, under near infrared irradiation, the photothermal effect of CNPs in the implantable patch weakens the electrostatic interaction between the PLMSNs and poly(ε-caprolactone)/gelatin/CNP fibrous mesh, resulting in the controlled release of the PLMSNs and subsequent internalization into the tumor cells for more effective cancer cell killing. This implantable therapeutic device may therefore inspire another way of developing localized cancer therapy.

Hybrid nanofibers based on poly-caprolactone/gelatin/hydroxyapatite nanoparticles-loaded Doxycycline: Effective anti-tumoral and antibacterial activity. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2017; 83:25-34. [PMID: 29208285 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2017.08.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 61] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2017] [Revised: 07/19/2017] [Accepted: 08/02/2017] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Cancer is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality Worldwide, 19.3 million new cancer cases are expected to be identified in 2025. Among the therapeutic arsenal to cancer control one could find the Doxycycline and the nano hydroxyapatite. The Doxycycline (Dox) not only shown antibiotic effect but also exhibits a wide range of pleiotropic therapeutic properties as the control of the invasive and metastatic cancer cells characteristics. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate both cytotoxicity in vitro and antibacterial activity of electrospun Dox-loaded hybrid nanofibrous scaffolds composed by hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA), poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) and gelatin (Gel) polymers. Both nHA and Dox were dispersed into different PCL/Gel ratios (70:30, 60:40, 50:50wt%) solutions to form electrospun nanofibers. The nHA and Dox/nHA/PCL-Gel hybrid nanofibers were characterized by TEM microscopy. In vitro Dox release behavior from all of these Dox-loaded nHA/PCL-Gel nanofibers showed the same burst release profile due to the high solubility of Gel in the release medium. Antibacterial properties of nanofiber composites were evaluated using Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Gram-negative Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) bacteria. The co-delivery of nHA particles and Dox simultaneously exhibited inhibition of bacterial growth more efficiently than the delivery of either Dox or nHA at the same concentrations, indicating a synergistic effect. The results showed that cancer cell tested had different sensibility to co-delivery system. On the whole, A-431 cells were found exhibited the most pronounced synergistic effect compared to CACO-2 and 4T1 cancer cells. Based on the anticancer as well as the antimicrobial results in this study, the developed Dox/nHA/PCL-Gel composite nanofibers are suitable as a drug delivery system with potential applications in the biomedical fields.

Abstract
Considering the important factor of bioactive nanohydoxyapatite (nHA) to enhance osteoconductivity or bone-bonding capacity, nHA was incorporated into an electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) membrane using electrospinning techniques. The viscosity of the PCL and nHA/PCL with different concentrations of nHA was measured and the morphology of the electrospun membranes was compared using a field emission scanning electron microscopy. The water contact angle of the nanofiber determined the wettability of the membranes of different concentrations. The surface roughness of the electrospun nanofibers fabricated from pure PCL and nHA/PCL was determined and compared using atomic force microscopy. Attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to study the chemical bonding of the composite electrospun nanofibers. Beadless nanofibers were achieved after the incorporation of nHA with a diameter of 200-700 nm. Results showed that the fiber diameter and the surface roughness of electrospun nanofibers were significantly increased after the incorporation of nHA. In contrast, the water contact angle (132° ± 3.5°) was reduced for PCL membrane after addition of 10% (w/w) nHA (112° ± 3.0°). Ultimate tensile strengths of PCL membrane and 10% (w/w) nHA/PCL membrane were 25.02 ± 2.3 and 18.5 ± 4.4 MPa. A model drug tetracycline hydrochloride was successfully loaded in the membrane and the membrane demonstrated good antibacterial effects against the growth of bacteria by showing inhibition zone for E. coli (2.53 ± 0.06 cm) and B. cereus (2.87 ± 0.06 cm).

Abstract
In the present study, the PCL-Diol-b-PU/Au nanocompsite nanofibers were fabricated via electrospinning process during two different stages to load an anticancer temozolomide (TMZ) drug into the nanofibers. The first stage was the incorporation of Au nanoparticles into the nanofibers and the second stage was coating the gold nanoparticles on the surface of PCL-Diol-b-PU/Au composite nanofibers. The prepared nanofibrous formulations were characterized using FTIR, SEM and TEM analysis. Box-Behnken-design was used to investigate the influence of electrospinning parameters including solution concentration, applied voltage to tip-collector distance ratio and collector speed on the morphology and fiber diameter of PCL-Diol-b-PU/Au nanofibers. Drug loading efficiency, in vitro release profiles of TMZ from PCL-Diol-b-PU/Au and gold-coated PCL-Diol-b-PU/Au composite nanofibers as well as in vitro antitumor efficacy against U-87 MG human glioblastoma cells were carried out. The TMZ release data were well described using Korsmayer-Peppas kinetic model in which results indicated Fickian diffusion of TMZ from nanofibers. The obtained results revealed the higher efficiency of PCL-Diol-b-PU/Au@TMZ nanofibrous implants for treatment of glioblastoma tumors.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical industries spend more money in developing new and efficient methods for delivering successful drugs for anticancer therapy. Electrospun nanofibers and nanoparticles loaded with drugs have versatile biomedical applications ranging from wound healing to anticancer therapy. We aimed to attempt for fabricating elastomeric poly (l-lactic acid-co-ε-caprolactone) (PLACL) with Aloe Vera (AV), magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles, curcumin (CUR) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) composite nanofibers to control the growth of MCF-7 cells for breast cancer therapy. The study focused on the interaction of MgO nanoparticle with CUR and β-CD inhibiting the proliferation of Michigan Cancer Foundation-7 (MCF-7) breast cancer cells. FESEM micrographs of fabricated electrospun PLACL, PLACL/AV, PLACL/AV/MgO, PLACL/AV/MgO/CUR and PLACL/AV/MgO/β-CD nanofibrous scaffolds achieved bead free, random and uniform nanofibers with fiber diameter in the range of 786±286, 507±171, 334±95, 360±94 and 326±80nm respectively. Proliferation of MCF-7 cells was decreased by 65.92% in PLACL/AV/MgO/CUR with respect to PLACL/AV/MgO nanofibrous scaffolds on day 9. The obtained results proved that 1% CUR interacting with MgO nanoparticles showed higher inhibition of MCF-7 cells among all other nanofibrous scaffolds thus serving as a promising biocomposite material system for the breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
The design and development of functional biomimetic systems for programmed stem cell response is a field of topical interest. To mimic bone extracellular matrix, we present an innovative strategy for constructing drug-loaded composite nanofibrous scaffolds in this study, which could integrate multiple cues from calcium phosphate mineral, bioactive molecule, and highly ordered fiber topography for the control of stem cell fate. Briefly, inspired by mussel adhesion mechanism, a polydopamine (pDA)-templated nanohydroxyapatite (tHA) was synthesized and then surface-functionalized with bone morphogenetic protein-7-derived peptides via catechol chemistry. Afterward, the resulting peptide-loaded tHA (tHA/pep) particles were blended with polycaprolactone (PCL) solution to fabricate electrospun hybrid nanofibers with random and aligned orientation. Our research demonstrated that the bioactivity of grafted peptides was retained in composite nanofibers. Compared to controls, PCL-tHA/pep composite nanofibers showed improved cytocompatibility. Moreover, the incorporated tHA/pep particles in nanofibers could further facilitate osteogenic differentiation potential of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). More importantly, the aligned PCL-tHA/pep composite nanofibers showed more osteogenic activity than did randomly oriented counterparts, even under nonosteoinductive conditions, indicating excellent performance of biomimetic design in cell fate decision. After in vivo implantation, the PCL-tHA/pep composite nanofibers with highly ordered structure could significantly promote the regeneration of lamellar-like bones in a rat calvarial critical-sized defect. Accordingly, the presented strategy in our work could be applied for a wide range of potential applications in not only bone regeneration application but also pharmaceutical science.

Abstract
Nanohydroxyapatite (HA) synthesized by biomimetic strategy is a promising nanomaterial as bone substitute due to its physicochemical features similar to those of natural nanocrystal in bone tissue. Inspired by mussel adhesive chemistry, a novel nano-HA was synthesized in our work by employing polydopamine (pDA) as template under weak alkaline condition. Subsequently, the as-prepared pDA-templated HA (tHA) was introduced into polycaprolactone (PCL) matrix via coelectrospinning, and a bioactive tHA/PCL composite nanofiber scaffold was developed targeted at bone regeneration application. Our research showed that tHA reinforced PCL composite nanofibers exhibited favorable cytocompatibility at given concentration of tHA (0-10 w.t%). Compared to pure PCL and traditional nano-HA enriched PCL (HA/PCL) composite nanofibers, enhanced cell adhesion, spreading and proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were observed on tHA/PCL composite nanofibers on account of the contribution of pDA present in tHA. More importantly, tHA nanoparticles exposed on the surface of composite nanofibers could further promote osteogenesis of hMSCs in vitro even in the absence of osteogenesis soluble inducing factors when compared to traditional HA/PCL scaffolds, which was supported by in vivo test as well according to the histological analysis. Overall, our study demonstrated that the developed tHA/PCL composite nanofibers with enhanced cytocompatibility and osteogenic capacity hold great potential as scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.
