Abstract
Medical devices are essential for patient care, but they can also serve as havens for dangerous microbes and the development of biofilm, which can lead to serious infections and higher death rates. To meet these issues, it is crucial to develop novel and effective antimicrobial coatings for medical devices. In this context, we have developed a new biofunctionalized nanosilver (ICS-Ag), employing itaconyl-chondroitin sulfate nanogel (ICSNG) as a synergistic reducing and stabilizing agent, to effectively eradicate microbial infections and biofilm formation. The antibacterial investigations showed that ICS-Ag nanocomposite is an intriguing antibiotic with excellent antibacterial indices (MIC/MBC (μg/mL): 2.29/4.58, 1.25/2.50, and 1.36/1.36 against S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa, respectively), as well as antifungal capacity. Furthermore, ICS-Ag demonstrated efficacy superior to that of the antibiotic (ciprofloxacin, Cipro) against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial biofilms. TEM images of untreated and treated bacterial strains demonstrate synergistic actions that harm the bacterial cytomembrane, leading to the release of intracellular contents and bacterial death. Interestingly, ICS-Ag shows excellent biocompatibility, with an IC50 value (71.25 μg/mL) higher than MICs against tested microbes. Overall, the ICS-Ag film may provide multifunctional antimicrobial coatings for medical equipment to reduce microbial contamination and biofilm development.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based gold nanomaterials have attracted great interest in biomedical fields such as cancer therapy and immunomodulation due to their prolonged residence time in vivo and enhanced immune response. This review aims to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive summary of polysaccharide-based Au NMs synthesis, including mechanisms, polysaccharide structure-effects, and anticancer activity. Firstly, research progress on the synthesis mechanism of polysaccharide-based Au NMs was addressed, which included three types based on the variety of polysaccharides and reaction environment: breaking of glycosidic bonds via Au (III) or base-mediated production of highly reduced intermediates, reduction of free hydroxyl groups in polysaccharide molecules, and reduction of free amino groups in polysaccharide molecules. Then, the potential effects of polysaccharide structure characteristics (molecular weight, composition of monosaccharides, functional groups, glycosidic bonds, and chain conformation) and reaction conditions (the reaction temperature, reaction time, pH, concentration of gold precursor and polysaccharides) on the size and shape of Au NMs were explored. Finally, the current status of polysaccharide-based Au NMs cancer therapy was summarized before reaching our conclusions and perspectives.

Abstract
Streptococcus mutans is one of the key etiological factors in tooth-borne biofilm development that leads to dental caries in the presence of fermentable sugars. We previously reported on the ability of acid-stabilized nanoceria (CeO2-NP) produced by the hydrolysis of ceric salts to limit biofilm adherence of S. mutans via non-bactericidal mechanism(s). Herein, we report a chondroitin sulfate A (CSA) formulation (CeO2-NP-CSA) comprising nanoceria aggregates that promotes resistance to bulk precipitation under a range of conditions with retention of the biofilm-inhibiting activity, allowing for a more thorough mechanistic study of its bioactivity. The principal mechanism of reduced in vitro biofilm adherence of S. mutans by CeO2-NP-CSA is the production of nonadherent cell clusters. Additionally, dose-dependent in vitro human cell toxicity studies demonstrated no additional toxicity beyond that of equimolar doses of sodium fluoride, currently utilized in many oral health products. This study represents a unique approach and use of a nanoceria aggregate formulation with implications for promoting oral health and dental caries prevention as an adjunctive treatment.

Abstract
In the present study, a green surface modification of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) using chondroitin sulfate (CHS) and chitosan (CS) to deliver an extended-release of doxorubicin (DOX) was proposed. Following synthesis of each step of unconjugated counterpart, including CHS-GNPs, DOX-CHS-GNP, and conjugated construct DOX-CHS-GNP-CS, physicochemical properties of the nanoparticles (NPs) were characterized by FT-IR, DLS, and TEM analyses, and the release of DOX was determined by using UV-Vis spectrometry. Then, NPs were effectively taken up by MDA-MB-468, βTC-3, and human fibroblast (HFb) cell lines with high release percent and without significant cytotoxicity. The DOX-CHS-GNPs and DOX-CHS-GNP-CS NPs showed a mean size of 175.8 ± 1.94 and 208.9 ± 2.08 nm; furthermore, a zeta potential of - 34 ± 5.6 and - 25.7 ± 5.9 mV, respectively. The highest release of DOX was 73.37% after 45 h, while in the absence of CS, the release of DOX was 76.05% for 24 h. Compared to CHS-GNPs, the presence of CS decreased the rate of sustained release of DOX and improved the drug release efficiency. The results demonstrated an excellent release and negligible cytotoxicity at high concentrations of CHS-GNP-CS. Consequently, in ovo assessment corroborated the efficacy of the green fabricated NPs proposed effective targeted delivery of DOX for anti-tumor therapy in vitro.

Abstract
Metastatic oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) displays a poor disease prognosis with a 5-year survival rate of 39%. Chemotherapy has emerged as the mainstream treatment against small clusters of cancer cells but poses more risks than benefits for metastatic cells due to the non-specificity and cytotoxicity. To overcome these obstacles, we conjugated antibodies specific for matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), a prognostic biomarker of SCC, to iron–gold bimetallic nanoparticles (FeAu NPs) and explored the capability of this complex to target and limit SSC cell growth via magnetic field-induced hyperthermia. Our results showed that 4.32 ± 0.79 nm sized FeAu NPs were superparamagnetic in nature with a saturation magnetization (Ms) of 5.8 emu/g and elevated the media temperature to 45 °C, confirming the prospect to deliver hyperthermia. Furthermore, conjugation with MMP-1 antibodies resulted in a 3.07-fold higher uptake in HSC-3 (human tongue squamous cell carcinoma) cells as compared to L929 (fibroblast) cells, which translated to a 5-fold decrease in cell viability, confirming SCC targeting. Finally, upon magnetic stimulation, MMP-1-FeAu NPs conjugate triggered 89% HSC-3 cellular death, confirming the efficacy of antibody-conjugated nanoparticles in limiting SCC growth. The synergistic effect of biomarker-specific antibodies and magnetic nanoparticle-induced hyperthermia may open new doors towards SCC targeting for improved disease prognosis.

Abstract
The association of cationic carriers with different anionic mucoadhesive biopolymers has been widely explored as an alternative to improve their delivery routes and specific targeting. This work presents a complete analysis of the association between chondroitin sulfate (CS) and cationic liposomes (CLs)/lipoplex (CL-pDNA). In this study, plasmid DNA (pDNA) was used as a genetic cargo for association with carriers. Firstly, we measured the stoichiometry of pseudo complexes and evaluated their colloidal properties, structural and morphological characteristics. Optimized CL-pDNA lipoplexes (positive z-potential) and CL-CS / CL-pDNA-CS (negative z-potential with CS mass ratio of 9% (w/w)) were further studied in detail. Small-angle X-ray scattering analysis and cryo-transmission electron microscopy micrographs revealed that the electrostatic interaction between CS and CL / CL-pDNA easily reorganized the lipid bilayers resulting in nanoscale uni/multilamellar vesicles. A high CS mass ratio (9% (w/w)) led to the reassembly of liposomal structure, wherein the pDNA was easily exchanged for CS chains, forming more than 50% of dense multilamellar vesicles. This data evidenced that the association between CS and CLs is not a conventional coating process since it generates complex and hybrid structures. We believe that these obtained colloidal data may be used in the future to investigate polymer-tailored nanocarriers and their production process. In brief, the colloidal study of hybrid structures may open interesting perspectives for developing novel carriers for drug and gene delivery applications.

Hyaluronic Acid-Functionalized Nanomicelles Enhance SAHA Efficacy in 3D Endometrial Cancer Models. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13164032.

Abstract
Simple Summary One of the major limitations to cancer therapies are the side effects caused by the drug interacting with any tissue in the body. There is often a balance between patient health and effectively treating the disease. To by-pass this balancing act nanoparticles are being used to deliver therapeutics straight to the tumors, acting as “Trojan Horses”. Endometrial cancers are known to have more of the cell surface protein CD44 than healthy tissues. Here, to efficiently target endometrial cancer, hyaluronic acid, which naturally binds to the CD44 protein was attached to the surface of nanoparticles and tested on microtissues or spheroids to better model a tumor and understand drug delivery performance. We show that our hyaluronic acid-nanoparticle formulations improve drug effects and interact with the cancer cells more than without this targeting agent. Abstract Histone Deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes are upregulated in cancer leading to the development of HDAC inhibiting compounds, several of which are currently in clinical trials. Side effects associated with toxicity and non-specific targeting indicate the need for efficient drug delivery approaches and tumor specific targeting to enhance HDAC efficacy in solid tumor cancers. SAHA encapsulation within F127 micelles functionalized with a surface hyaluronic acid moiety, was developed to target endometrial cancer cells expressing elevated levels of CD44. In vitro viability and morphology analyses was conducted in both 2D and 3D models to assess the translational potential of this approach. Encapsulation enhanced SAHA delivery and activity, demonstrating increased cytotoxic efficacy in 2D and 3D endometrial cancer models. High-content imaging showed improved nanoparticle internalization in 2D and CD44 enhanced penetration in 3D models. In addition, the nano-delivery system enhanced spheroid penetration resulting in cell growth suppression, p21 associated cell cycle arrest, as well as overcoming the formation of an EMT associated phenotype observed in free drug treated type II endometrial cancer cells. This study demonstrates that targeted nanoparticle delivery of SAHA could provide the basis for improving its efficacy in endometrial cancer. Using 3D models for endometrial cancer allows the elucidation of nanoparticle performance and CD44 targeting, likely through penetration and retention within the tumor model.

Abstract
![]()
Mesenchymal stem/stromal
cells (MSCs) evoke great excitement for
treating different human diseases due to their ability to home inflamed
tissues, suppress inflammation, and promote tissue regeneration. Despite
great promises, clinical trial results are disappointing as allotransplantation
of MSCs trigger thrombotic activity and are damaged by the complement
system, compromising their survival and function. To overcome this,
a new strategy is presented by the silencing of tissue factor (TF),
a transmembrane protein that mediates procoagulant activity. Novel Pluronic-based micelles are designed
with the pendant pyridyl disulfide group, which are used to conjugate
TF-targeting siRNA by the thiol-exchange reaction. This nanocarrier
design effectively delivered the payload to MSCs resulting in ∼72%
TF knockdown (KD) without significant cytotoxicity. Hematological
evaluation of MSCs and TF-KD MSCs in an ex vivo human whole blood
model revealed a significant reduction in an instant-blood-mediated-inflammatory
reaction as evidenced by reduced platelet aggregation (93% of free
platelets in the TF-KD group, compared to 22% in untreated bone marrow-derived
MSCs) and thrombin–antithrombin complex formation. Effective
TF silencing induced higher MSC differentiation in osteogenic and
adipogenic media and showed stronger paracrine suppression of proinflammatory
cytokines in macrophages and higher stimulation in the presence of
endotoxins. Thus, TF silencing can produce functional cells with higher
fidelity, efficacy, and functions.

Abstract
Chondroitin sulfate (CS) belongs to a class of molecules called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). These are long, linear chains of polysaccharides comprising alternating amino sugars and hexuronic acid. Similar to other GAGs, CS is important in a multitude of biological activities. Alteration of CS levels has been implicated in several pathological conditions, including osteoarthritis (OA) and other inflammatory diseases, as well as physiological conditions, such as aging. Therefore, devising replenishment strategies for this molecule is an important area of research. In this review, we discuss the nature of CS, its function in different organs, and its implications in health and disease. We also describe different methods for the exogenous administration of CS.

Bifunctional Aptamer Drug Carrier Enabling Selective and Efficient Incorporation of an Approved Anticancer Drug Irinotecan to Fibrin Gels. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2020.

Abstract
We have previously developed a bifunctional aptamer (bApt) binding to both human thrombin and camptothecin derivative (CPT1), and showed that bApt acts as a drug carrier under the phenomenon named selective oligonucleotide entrapment in fibrin polymers (SOEF), which enables efficient enrichment of CPT1 into fibrin gels, resulting in significant inhibition of tumor cell growth. However, although the derivative CPT1 exhibits anticancer activity, it is not an approved drug. In this study, we evaluated the binding properties of bApt to irinotecan, a camptothecin analog commonly used for anticancer drug therapy, in addition to unmodified camptothecin (CPT). Furthermore, we have revealed that irinotecan binds to bApt like CPT1 and is selectively concentrated on fibrin gels formed around the tumor cells under the SOEF phenomenon to suppress cell proliferation.

Abstract
Anti-inflammatory drugs such as dexamethasone (DEX) are commonly administered to cancer patients along with anticancer drugs, however, the effect of DEX on human cancers is poorly understood. In this article, we have tailored self-assembled nanoparticles derived from hyaluronic acid (HA) wherein, anti-inflammatory DEX was used as a hydrophobic moiety for inducing amphiphilicity. The HA-DEX micelles were subsequently loaded with chemotherapeutic agent, doxorubicin (DOX) (HA-DEX-DOX) and was utilized to deliver drug cargo to human cancer cells expressing different levels of CD44 receptors. We found that DEX suppressed the cytotoxicity of DOX in HCT116, while it synergistically enhanced cytotoxicity in MCF-7 cells. When we tested DOX and HA-DEX-DOX in an ex-vivo human whole blood, we found activation of complement and the coagulation cascade in one group of donors. Encapsulation of DOX within the nanoparticle core eliminated such deleterious side-effects. The HA-DEX-DOX also polarized bone-marrow-derived anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages, to pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype with the upregulation of the cytokines TNF-α, iNOS and IL-1β.

Abstract
The polysaccharide-based biomaterials hyaluronic acid (HA) and chondroitin sulfate (CS) have aroused great interest for use in drug delivery systems for tumor therapy, as they have outstanding biocompatibility and great targeting ability for cluster determinant 44 (CD44). In addition, modified HA and CS can self-assemble into micelles or micellar nanoparticles (NPs) for targeted drug delivery. This review discusses the formation of HA- and CS-based NPs, and various types of CS-based NPs including CS-drug conjugates, CS-polymer NPs, CS-small molecule NPs, polyelectrolyte nanocomplexes (PECs), CS-metal NPs, and nanogels. We then focus on the applications of HA- and CS-based NPs in tumor chemotherapy, gene therapy, photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), sonodynamic therapy (SDT), and immunotherapy. Finally, this review is expected to provide guidelines for the development of various HA- and CS-based NPs used in multiple cancer therapies.

Abstract
Statins are currently the most prescribed hypercholesterolemia-lowering drugs worldwide, with estimated usage approaching one-sixth of the population. However, statins are known to cause pleiotropic skeletal myopathies in 1.5% to 10% of patients and the mechanisms by which statins induce this response, are not fully understood. In this study, a 3D collagen-based tissue-engineered skeletal muscle construct is utilised as a screening platform to test the efficacy and toxicity of a new delivery system. A hyaluronic acid derived nanoparticle loaded with simvastatin (HA-SIM-NPs) is designed and the effect of free simvastatin and HA-SIM-NPs on cellular, molecular and tissue response is investigated. Morphological ablation of myotubes and lack of de novo myotube formation (regeneration) was evident at the highest concentrations (333.33 μM), independent of delivery vehicle (SIM or HA-SIM-NP). A dose-dependent disruption of the cytoskeleton, reductions in metabolic activity and tissue engineered (TE) construct tissue relaxation was evident in the free drug condition (SIM, 3.33 μM and 33.33 nM). However, most of these changes were ameliorated when SIM was delivered via HA-SIM-NPs. Significantly, homogeneous expressions of MMP2, MMP9, and myogenin in HA-SIM-NPs outlined enhanced regenerative responses compared to SIM. Together, these results outline statin delivery via HA-SIM-NP as an effective delivery mechanism to inhibit deleterious myotoxic side-effects.

Abstract
![]()
Introduction: The application of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in medicine is expanding as an effective therapeutic and diagnostic compound. Different polysaccharides with high biocompatibility and hydrophilic properties have been used for synthesis and capping of GNPs. Chondroitin sulfate (CHS) as a polysaccharide possesses a wide range of biological functions e.g. anti-oxidant, anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation, anti-atherosclerosis, anti-thrombosis with insignificant immunogenicity and has not been used for the green synthesis of GNPs.
Methods: GNPs were synthesized using CHS, and their physicochemical properties were evaluated. The antibacterial activity of CHS-GNPs was estimated against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The cytotoxicity of CHS and CHS-GNPs was obtained by MTT (3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) test, and the electrocatalytic activity of CHS-GNPs was investigated. The blood compatibility was evaluated by the in vitro hemolysis assay.
Results: The absorption band at 527 nm reveals the reduction of Au3+ into GNPs. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image displays the spherical shape of GNPs in the range of 5.8–31.4 nm. The CHS and CHS-GNPs at 300 µg/mL revealed a maximum DPPH (1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) scavenging activity of 73% and 65%, respectively. CHS-GNPs showed antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis , while CHS has no antibacterial activity. CHS-GNPs exhibited a cytotoxicity effect against MDA-MB-468 and βTC3 cancer cell lines, and the electrochemical study indicated a significant increase in electrocatalytic properties of CHS-GNPs coated electrode compared by the bare electrode. The hemolysis test proved the blood compatibility of CHS-GNPs.
Conclusion: The results indicate the advantages of using CHS to produce blood-compatible GNPs with antioxidant, cytotoxic, and electrochemical properties.

Abstract
The standard chemotherapy is facing the challenges of lack of cancer selectivity and development of drug resistance. Currently, with the application of nanotechnology, the rationally designed nanocarriers of chondroitin sulfate (CS) have been fabricated and their unique features of low toxicity, biocompatibility, and active and passive targeting made them drug delivery vehicles of the choice for cancer therapy. The hydrophilic and anionic CS could be incorporated as a building block into- or decorated on the surface of nanoformulations. Micellar nanoparticles (NPs) self-assembled from amphiphilic CS-drug conjugates and CS-polymer conjugates, polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) and nanogels of CS have been widely implicated in cancer directed therapy. The surface modulation of organic, inorganic, lipid and metallic NPs with CS promotes the receptor-mediated internalization of NPs to the tumor cells. The potential contribution of CS and CS-proteoglycans (CSPGs) in the pathogenesis of various cancer types, and CS nanocarriers in immunotherapy, radiotherapy, sonodynamic therapy (SDT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) of cancer are summarized in this review paper.

Abstract
This investigation reports a novel nanoGold-core multifunctional dendrimer for pulsatile chemo-, photothermal- and photodynamic- therapy of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Architecturally, the nanocomposites comprised of a nanoGold (Au) at the focal whose surface is functionalized by hydroxy-terminated thiolated-dendrons following Au-thiol bond formation to produce nanoGold-core multifunctional dendrimer (Au-DEN). The surface hydroxyl groups of Au-DEN were then conjugated with methotrexate (MTX; a disease-modifying first line anti-rheumatic drug; DMARD; 74.29 ± 0.48% loading) to form Au-DEN-MTX-NPs (Particle size: 100.15 ± 28.36 nm; poly dispersibility index, PDI: 0.39 ± 0.02; surface zeta potential, ζ: -22.45 ± 1.06 mV). MTX was strategically selected to serve as an anti-rheumatic DMARD as well as a targeting ligand to attain selective localization of the formulation in arthritic tissue via folate receptors upregulated on arthritic tissues. The docking study was performed to confirm the viable binding efficiency of MTX towards β-folate receptors that are overexpressed on arthritic tissues taking folic acid as a reference standard. The IR780, a NIR active bioactive was also loaded in Au-DEN-MTX NPs to offer photothermal benefit upon irradiation with NIR laser (wavelength: 808 nm). The hypothesis was tested by elucidation of in vitro drug release profile, photothermal activity, cellular uptake (Fluorescence and confocal laser scanning microscopy; CLSM), cell viability assay (MTT protocol) and Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in mouse macrophage RAW264.7 cells and Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) activated RAW264.7 cells. Furthermore, the hemolytic toxicity and stability studies were also investigated to determine the blood compatibility as well as ideal storage condition of NPs. The outcome of this investigations presents developed multifunctional targeted NPs to be potential therapeutics for the improved treatment of RA. The approach can also be applied to other clinical interventions involving countering inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Molecular diagnostics relies on the efficient extraction of biomarker information from the given bio-systems. Plasmonic nanomaterials with tailored structural parameters are promising for the development of biomarker assays due to enrichment effect and signal enhancement. Herein, we overview the recent progress on the development of plasmonic nanomaterials for diagnostic spectrometry, encompassing the interface, mechanism, and application of these materials. For interface, we summarized the types of plasmonic nanomaterials used as interfaces between different materials and light. For mechanism, we descirbe the key parameters (e.g., hot carriers and heat) that characterize the plasmonic effect of materials. For application, we highlighted recent advances in matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI MS) and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) toward precision in in vitro and in vivo diagnostics. We foresee the upcoming era of precision diagnostics by nano-assisted spectrometry methods in both academy and industry, which will require the interest and effort of scientists with diverse backgrounds.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is an important first-line strategy for tumor therapy in cancer treatment, but multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major problem that reduces the efficacy of chemotherapeutics. Herein, we report a novel photothermally controlled intelligent drug release system (AuNP@mSiO2-DOX-FA) with a large amount of drugs loading for synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy of MDR in breast cancer. The nanoplatform utilized gold nanoparticles as a hyperthermia core, and large-mesoporous silica as a shell for doxorubicin (DOX) loading. Benefiting from the thick layer and large pore size, the encapsulation and loading efficiency were as high as 97.7% and 8.84%, respectively. Furthermore, under the trigger of 808 nm near infrared (NIR) light, the released DOX increased significantly at pH 5.0 and reached to 39.0% in 20 min, achieving a facile intelligent control of chemotherapy additional to the photothermal therapy. The viability of MCF-7/ADR cells could be efficiently reduced to 16.9%, demonstrating the proposed photothermally controlled system with synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy has great potential capability to overcome MDR in breast cancer.

Abstract
Cancer nanomedicines only modestly improve the overall survival of patients because their anticancer activity is limited by biological barriers posed by the tumor microenvironment. Currently, all the drugs in FDA-approved cancer nanomedicines are substrates for P-glycoprotein (Pgp), and thus, Pgp-mediated multidrug resistance (MDR) remains a hurdle for cancer nanomedicines. Methods: In this study, Pgp-targeted photodynamic therapy (PDT) was developed to enhance the anticancer efficacy of nanomedicines by depleting MDR cancer cells as well as enhancing tumor penetration of nanomedicines. We first examined the Pgp specificity of our targeted PDT approach, and then tested combination therapy of PDT with Doxil in mixed tumor models of MDR cancer cells and stromal cells, mimicking human heterogeneous tumors. Results: In vitro studies showed that the antibody-photosensitizer conjugates produced Pgp-specific cytotoxicity towards MDR cancer cells upon irradiation with a near-infrared light. The studies with a co-culture model of MDR cancer cells and stromal cells revealed synergistic effects in the combination therapy of PDT with Doxil. Using a mouse model of mixed tumors containing MDR cancer cells and stroma cells, we observed markedly enhanced tumor delivery of Doxil after PDT in vivo. We further examined the effects of the two modalities on individual cell populations and their synergism using an in vivo dual substrate bioluminescence assay. The results indicated that Pgp-targeted PDT specifically depleted MDR cancer cells and further enhanced Doxil's actions on both MDR cancer cells and stromal cells. Conclusion: We conclude that our targeted PDT approach markedly enhances anticancer actions of nanomedicines by depleting MDR cancer cells and increasing their tumor penetration, and thereby, may provide an effective approach to facilitate translation of cancer nanomedicines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyaluronic acid (HA) and chondroitin sulfate (CD) are endogenous polysaccharides. In recent years, they have aroused the interest of scientists because of specific binding to CD44 receptors, which are overexpressed in several types of tumors. METHODS In this study, HA- and CD-modified poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLGA-PEG) copolymers were synthesized and applied to encapsulate 1,2-Dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane (DOTAP)/pDNA (D/P) lipoplex as CD44 receptor targeting gene delivery nanoparticles (NPs). RESULTS The particle size of CD-PEG-PLGA-D/P (186.8 ± 21.7 nm) was smaller than that of HA-PEG-PLGA-D/P (270.2 ± 13.8 nm), with narrow size distribution, and both HA-PEG-PLGA-D/P NPs and CD-PEG-PLGA NPs possessed negative zeta potentials (-39.63 ± 5.44 mV and -38.9 ± 2.0 mV, respectively), which prevent erythrocytes from agglutination. Both NPs exhibited pH-dependent release and had faster release in pH 4.0 than in pH 7.4. Generally, the CD-PEG-PLGA-D/P NPs possessed less cytotoxicity than HA-PEG-PLGA-D/P NPs. The D/P-loaded HA-PEG-PLGA and CD-PEG-PLGA NPs expressed significantly higher transfection in CD44 high-expressed U87 (30.1% ± 2.1% and 40.7% ± 4.3%, respectively) than in CD44-negative HepG2 (3.3% ± 1.5% and 1.4% ± 1.0%, respectively) (p < 0.001). It was revealed that the endocytosis of HA-PEG-PLGA-D/P NPs was majorly dominated by macropinocytosis and the endocytosis of CD-PEG-PLGA-D/P NPs was dominated by clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathway (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The high selectivity to CD44-positive U87 cancer cells and low cytotoxicity in L929 normal cells assured the promising potential of CD-PEG-PLGA NPs as gene delivery nano-carriers.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has emerged as the most successful strategy for targeting drug payloads to tumors with the potential to overcome the problems of low concentration at the target site, nonspecific distribution, and untoward toxicities. Here, we synthesized a novel polymeric conjugate comprising chondroitin sulfate A and polyethylene glycol using carbodiimide chemistry. We further employed this glycoconjugate possessing the propensity to provide stability, stealth effects, and tumor targeting via CD44 receptors, all in one, to develop a nanocrystalline system of docetaxel (DTX@CSA-NCs) with size < 200 nm, negative zeta potential, and 98% drug content. Taking advantage of the enhanced permeability and retention effect coupled with receptor mediated endocytosis, the DTX@CSA-NCs cross the peripheral tumor barrier and penetrate deeper into the cells of tumor mass. In MDA-MB-231 cells, this enhanced cellular uptake was observed to exhibit a higher degree of cytotoxicity and arrest in the G2 phase in a time dependent fashion. Acting via a mitochondrial-lysosomotropic pathway, DTX@CSA-NCs disrupted the membrane potential and integrity and outperformed the clinically used formulation. Upon intravenous administration, the DTX@CSA-NCs showed better pharmacokinetic profile and excellent 4T1 induced tumor inhibition with significantly less off target toxicity. Thus, this glycoconjugate stabilized nanocrystalline formulation has the potential to take nano-oncology a step forward.

Abstract
Glycosaminoglycan derived nanoparticles are a promising delivery system owing to their unique tumour targeting ability. Exploiting fluorescein for inducing amphiphilicity in these biopolymers provides inherent imaging and drug stabilization capabilities by π-π stacking interactions with aromatic antineoplastic agents. This offers a versatile and highly customizable nanocarrier with narrow size distribution and high drug loading efficiency (80%) with sustained drug release.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) and chondroitin sulfate (CS) polymers are extensively used for various biomedical applications, such as for tissue engineering, drug delivery, and gene delivery. Although both these biopolymers are known to target cell surface CD44 receptors, their relative cellular targeting properties and immune activation potential have never been evaluated. In this article, we present the synthesis and characterization of novel self-assembled supramolecular HA and CS nanoparticles (NPs). These NPs were developed using fluorescein as a hydrophobic component that induced amphiphilicity in biopolymers and also efficiently stabilized anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) promoting a near zero-order drug release. The cellular uptake and cytotoxicity studies of these NPs in different human cancer lines, namely, human colorectal carcinoma cell line HCT116 and human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 demonstrated dose dependent cytotoxicity. Interestingly, both NPs showed CD44 dependent cellular uptake with the CS-DOX NP displaying higher dose-dependent cytotoxicity than the HA-DOX NP in different mammalian cells tested. Immunological evaluation of these nanocarriers in an ex vivo human whole blood model revealed that unlike unmodified polymers, the HA NP and CS NP surprisingly showed platelet aggregation and thrombin-antithrombin complex formation at high concentrations (0.8 mg/mL). We also observed a clear difference in early- and late-stage complement activation (C3a and sC5b-9) with CS and CS NP triggering significant complement activation at high concentrations (0.08-0.8 mg/mL), unlike HA and HA NP. These results offer new insight into designing glycosaminoglycan-based NPs and understanding their hematological responses and targeting ability.

Abstract
We demonstrate that N-heterocyclic molecule-capped gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) have broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Optimized antibacterial activity can be achieved by using different initial molar ratios (1 : 1 and 10 : 1) of N-heterocyclic prodrugs and the precursor of Au NPs (HAuCl4). This work opens up new avenues for antibiotics based on Au NPs.
