Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 273:133121. [PMID: 38876229 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133121] [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: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 06/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024]
Abstract
GFP1, a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from Grateloupia filicina, exhibits remarkable immunomodulatory activity. To reduce the side effects of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), GFP1 was employed as a macromolecular carrier to synthesize of GFP1-C-5-FU by reacting with carboxymethyl-5-fluorouracil (C-5-FU). Subsequently, this new compound was reacted with folic acid (FA) through an ester bond, forming novel conjugates named GFP1-C-5-FU-FA. Nuclear magnetic resonance analysis confirmed the formation of GFP1-C-5-FU-FA. In vitro drug release studies revealed that the cumulative release rate of C-5-FU reached 46.9 % in phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) after 96 h, a rate significantly higher than that of the control groups, indicating the controlled drug release behavior of GFP1-C-5-FU-FA. Additionally, in vitro anticancer assays demonstrated the potent anticancer activity of GFP1-C-5-FU-FA conjugates, as evidenced by the reduced viability of HeLa and AGS cancer cells, along with increased levels of apoptosis and cellular uptake. Western blot analysis indicated that the GFP1-C-5-FU-FA conjugate effectively enhanced phosphorylation in cancer cells through the NF-kB and MAPK pathways, thereby promoting apoptosis. These findings highlight the potential of folate-targeted conjugates in efficiently treating HeLa and AGS cancer cells in vitro and lay a robust theoretical groundwork for future in vivo anti-cancer research involving these cells.

Abstract
Nanogels are highly recognized as adaptable drug delivery systems that significantly contribute to improving various therapies and diagnostic examinations for different human diseases. These three-dimensional, hydrophilic cross-linked polymers have the ability to absorb large amounts of water or biological fluids. Due to the growing demand for enhancing current therapies, nanogels have emerged as the next-generation drug delivery system. They effectively address the limitations of conventional drug therapy, such as poor stability, large particle size, and low drug loading efficiency. Nanogels find extensive use in the controlled delivery of therapeutic agents, reducing adverse drug effects and enabling lower therapeutic doses while maintaining enhanced efficacy and patient compliance. They are considered an innovative drug delivery system that highlights the shortcomings of traditional methods. This article covers several topics, including the involvement of nanogels in the nanomedicine sector, their advantages and limitations, ideal properties like biocompatibility, biodegradability, drug loading capacity, particle size, permeability, non-immunological response, and colloidal stability. Additionally, it provides information on nanogel classification, synthesis, drug release mechanisms, and various biological applications. The article also discusses barriers associated with brain targeting and the progress of nanogels as nanocarriers for delivering therapeutic agents to the central nervous system.

Abstract
The marine microenvironment harbors many unique species of organisms that produce a plethora of compounds that help mankind cure a wide range of diseases. The diversity of products from the ocean bed serves as potentially healing materials and inert vehicles carrying the drug of interest to the target site. Several composites still lay undiscovered under the blue canopy, which can provide treatment for untreated diseases that keep haunting the earth periodically. Cancer is one such disease that has been of interest to several eminent scientists worldwide due to the heterogenic complexity involved in the disease's pathophysiology. Due to extensive globalization and environmental changes, cancer has become a lifestyle disease continuously increasing exponentially in the current decade. This ailment requires a definite remedy that treats by causing minimal damage to the body's normal cells. The application of nanotechnology in medicine has opened up new avenues of research in targeted therapeutics due to their highly malleable characteristics. Marine waters contain an immense ionic environment that succors the production of distinct nanomaterials with exceptional character, yielding highly flexible molecules to modify, thus facilitating the engineering of targeted biomolecules. This review provides a short insight into an array of marine biomolecules that can be probed into cancer nanotherapeutics sparing healthy cells.

BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 140:213030.

Abstract
Nowadays, the three-dimensional (3D) printed calcium phosphate (CaP) ceramics have well-designed geometric structure, but suffer from relative weak osteoinductivity. Surface modification by incorporating bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2) onto scaffolds is considered as an efficient approach to improve their bioactivity. However, high dose and uncontrolled burst release of BMP2 may cause undesired side effect. In the present study, porous BCP ceramics with inverse face-centred cube structure prepared by digital light processing (DLP)-based 3D printing technique were used as the substrates. BMP2 proteins were loaded in the self-assembled Heparin/PEI nanogels (NP/BMP2), and then immobilized onto BCP substrates through the intermediate mussel-derived bioactive dopamine and dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DA/DOPAC) coating layers to construct functional BCP/layer/NP/BMP2 scaffolds. Our results showed that Heparin/PEI nanogel was a potent delivery system for BMP2, and BCP/layer/NP/BMP2 scaffolds exhibited the high loading capacity, controlled release rate, and sustained local delivery of BMP2. In vitro cell experiments with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) found that BCP/layer/NP/BMP2 could promote cell proliferation, facilitate cell spreading, accelerate cell migration, up-regulate expression of osteogenic genes, and improve synthesis of osteoblast-related proteins. Moreover, the murine intramuscular implantation model suggested that BCP/layer/NP/BMP2 had a superior osteoinductive capacity, and the rat femoral condyle defect repair model showed that BCP/layer/NP/BMP2 could enhance in situ bone repair and regeneration. These findings demonstrate that the incorporation of BMP2 loaded Heparin/PEI nanogels to 3D printed scaffolds holds great promise in fabricating bone graft with a superior biological performance for orthopedic application.

Abstract
Natural amphiphilic polymer micelles have garnered considerable research attention as nanocarriers for delivering drugs. The objective of this study was to explore the possibility of applying biocompatible dual-modified starch micelles as drug delivery vehicles. To this end, a dual-modified corn starch polymer (SCD) was synthesized with zwitterionic sulfobetaine and deoxycholic acid; spherical micelles with an average particle size of ~200 nm were prepared through the self-assembly of SCD. The effects of dual modification on the degree of substitution, molecular structure, and functional properties of SCD were investigated. Further, doxorubicin was successfully incorporated into the micelles, and an in vitro drug release study was performed to confirm that the drug-loaded micelles displayed pH-sensitive properties with controlled and sustained release. The dissolve-diffuse-erosion-degradation release process was described according to the dynamic models of drug release for SCD micelles. The results can be used as reference information for further studies in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical domains.

Abstract
Nanotechnology-based approaches for targeting the delivery and controlled release of metal-based therapeutic agents have revealed significant potential as tools for enhancing the therapeutic effect of metal-based agents and minimizing their systemic toxicities. In this context, a series of polymer-based nanosized systems designed to physically load or covalently conjugate metal-based therapeutic agents have been remarkably improving their bioavailability and anticancer efficacy. Initially, the polymeric nanocarriers were applied for platinum-based chemotherapeutic agents resulting in some nanoformulations currently in clinical tests and even in medical applications. At present, these nanoassemblies have been slowly expanding for nonplatinum-containing metal-based chemotherapeutic agents. Interestingly, for metal-based photosensitizers (PS) applied in photodynamic therapy (PDT), especially for cancer treatment, strategies employing polymeric nanocarriers have been investigated for almost 30 years. In this review, we address the polymeric nanocarrier-assisted metal-based therapeutics agent delivery systems with a specific focus on non-platinum systems; we explore some biological and physicochemical aspects of the polymer–metallodrug assembly. Finally, we summarize some recent advances in polymeric nanosystems coupled with metal-based compounds that present potential for successful clinical applications as chemotherapeutic or photosensitizing agents. We hope this review can provide a fertile ground for the innovative design of polymeric nanosystems for targeting the delivery and controlled release of metal-containing therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Introduction:
Multi-drug nanosystem has been employed in several therapeutic models due to the synergistic effect of the drugs and/or bioactive compounds, which help in tumor-targeting and limit usual side effects of chemotherapy.
Methods:
In this research, we developed the amphiphilic Heparin-Poloxamer P403 (HSP) nanogel that can load curcumin (CUR) and Paclitaxel (PTX) through the hydrophobic core of Poloxamer P403. The features of HSP nanogel are assessed through Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), differential light scattering (DLS), and critical micelle concentration (CMC). Nanogel and its duel-loaded platform show high stability and spherical morphology.
Results:
The drug release profile indicates fast release at pH 5.5, suggesting effective drug distribution at the tumor site. In vitro research confirms lower cytotoxicity of HSP@CUR@PTX compared with free PTX and higher inhibition effect with MCF-7 than HSP@PTX. These results support the synergism between PTX and CUR.
Conclusion,:
HSP@CUR@PTX suggests a prominent strategy for achieving the synergistic effect of PTX and CUR to circumvent undesirable effects in breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based biomaterials (e.g., chitosan, dextran, hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate and heparin) have received great attention in healthcare, particularly in drug delivery for tumor therapy. They are naturally abundant and available, outstandingly biodegradable and biocompatible, and they generally have negligible toxicity and low immunogenicity. In addition, they are easily chemically or physically modified. Therefore, PSs-based nanoparticles (NPs) have been extensively investigated for the enhancement of tumor treatment. In this review, we introduce the synthetic pathways of amphiphilic PS derivatives, which allow the constructs to self-assemble into NPs with various structures. We especially offer an overview of the emerging applications of self-assembled PSs-based NPs in tumor chemotherapy, photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), gene therapy and immunotherapy. We believe that this review can provide criteria for a rational and molecular level-based design of PS-based NPs, and comprehensive insight into the potential of PS-based NPs used in multiple cancer therapies.

Abstract
Drug nanodelivery systems (DNDSs) are fascinated cargos to achieve outstanding therapeutic results of various drugs or natural bioactive compounds owing to their unique structures. The efficiency of several pharmaceutical drugs or natural bioactive ingredients is restricted because of their week bioavailability, poor bioaccessibility and pharmacokinetics after orally pathways. In order to handle such constraints, usage of native/natural polysaccharides (NPLS) in fabrication of DNDSs has gained more popularity in the arena of nanotechnology for controlled drug delivery to enhance safety, biocompatibility, better retention time, bioavailability, lower toxicity and enhanced permeability. The main commonly used NPLS in nanoencapsulation systems include chitosan, pectin, alginates, cellulose, starches, and gums recognized as potential materials for fabrication of cargos. Herein, this review is centered on different polysaccharide-based nanocarriers including nanoemulsions, nanohydrogels, nanoliposomes, nanoparticles and nanofibers, which have already served as encouraging candidates for entrapment of therapeutic drugs as well as for their sustained controlled release. Furthermore, the current article explicitly offers comprehensive details regarding application of NPLS-based nanocarriers encapsulating several drugs intended for the handling of numerous disorders, including diabetes, cancer, HIV, malaria, cardiovascular and respiratory as well as skin diseases.

Abstract
This review investigates the significant role polysaccharide particles play in functional drug delivery. The importance of these systems is due to the wide variety of polysaccharides and their natural source meaning that they can provide biocompatible and biodegradable systems with a range of both biological and chemical functionality valuable for drug delivery. This functionality includes protection and presentation of working therapeutics through avoidance of the reticuloendothelial system, stabilization of biomacromolecules and increasing the bioavailability of incorporated small molecule drugs. Transport of the therapeutic is also key to the utility of polysaccharide particles, moving drugs from the site of administration through mucosal binding and transport and using chemistry, size and receptor mediated drug targeting to specific tissues. This review also scrutinizes the methods of synthesizing and constructing functional polysaccharide particle drug delivery systems that maintain and extend the functionality of the natural polysaccharides.

Abstract
Heparin as negative polysaccharide is a universal building block to form polyion complex with different cationic counterparts. In this paper, three different cations, including chitosan, benzyldodecyldimethyl ammonium bromide and doxorubicin hydrochloride, were used to prepare heparin-based polyion complexes (HPICs). Their morphologies could be tuned by heparin content in HPIC, and they also showed pH-sensitive decomposition. Doxorubicin was further encapsulated into micelle and vesicle carrier made from heparin-benzyldodecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide PIC, whereas heparin-doxorubicin PIC could be directly used as drug carrier. In vitro drug release proved the drug carriers exhibit obvious pH sensitive release behaviour. Cytotoxicity indicated the drug carrier possessed significant cytotoxicity to tumor cells. The cell uptake observed by CLSM showed the carrier was able to deliver antitumor drug into tumor cell's nucleus. Consequently, these results showed the promising potential of HPIC in drug carrier application.

Abstract
A dual-sensitive polymeric drug conjugate (HA-SS-MP) was synthesized by conjugating hydrophobic 6-mercaptopurine (MP) to thiolated hyaluronic acid (HA) as the carrier and ligand to deliver doxorubicin (Dox) to parental colon cancer and colon cancer stem cells. Because of the amphiphilic nature of HA-SS-MP, it was self-assembled in the aqueous media, and Dox was physically encapsulated in the core of the micelles. The particle size and the zeta potential of the micelle were analyzed by dynamic light scattering (DLS), and the morphology of the micelle was investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Drug release study results revealed more drug release at pH 5.0 in the presence of GSH than that at the physiological pH value. The cytotoxicity of free Dox was slightly greater than that of Dox-loaded HA-SS-MP micelles. In vitro cytotoxicity of HA-SS-MP and Dox-loaded HA-SS-MP micelles was greater for cancer stem cells (HCT116-CSCs) than for parental HCT116 colon cancer cells and L929 normal fibroblast cells. The MTT and flow cytometry results confirmed that free HA competitively inhibited Dox-loaded HA-SS-MP uptake. Similarly, flow cytometry results revealed anti-CD44 antibody competitively inhibited cellular uptake of Rhodamine B isothiocyanate conjugated micelles, which confirms that the synthesized micelle is uptaken via CD44 receptor. Cell cycle analysis revealed that free drugs and Dox-loaded HA-SS-MP arrested parental HCT116 colon cancer cells at the S phase, while cell arrest was observed at the G0G1 phase in HCT116-CSCs. In addition, ex vivo biodistribution study showed that Dox-loaded HA-SS-MP micelles were accumulated more in the tumor region than in any other organ. Furthermore, the in vivo results revealed that Dox-loaded HA-SS-MP micelles exhibited more therapeutic efficacy than the free drugs in inhibiting tumor growth in BALB/C nude mice. Overall, the results suggested that the synthesized micelles could be promising as a stimuli carrier and ligand for delivering Dox to colon cancer cells and also to eradicate colon cancer stem cells.

Dopamine-grafted heparin as an additive to the commercialized carboxymethyl cellulose/styrene-butadiene rubber binder for practical use of SiO x/graphite composite anode. Sci Rep 2018; 8:11322.

Abstract
Graphite is used commercially as the active material in lithium ion batteries, frequently as part of a graphite/SiOx composite. Graphite is used in conjunction with SiOx to overcome the limited energy density of graphite, and to lessen the adverse effects of volume expansion of Si. However, electrodes based on graphite/SiOx composites can be made with only 3–5 wt % SiOx because of the increased failure of electrodes with higher SiOx contents. Here, we developed a new polymer binder, by combining dopamine-grafted heparin with the commercial binder carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), in order to more effectively hold the SiOx particles together and prevent disintegration of the electrode during charging and discharging. The crosslinking using acid-base interactions between heparin and CMC and the ion-conducting sulfonate group in heparin, together with the strong adhesion properties of dopamine, yielded better physical properties for the dopamine-heparin-containing CMC/SBR-based electrodes than for the commercial CMC/SBR-based electrodes, and hence yielded excellent cell performance with a retention of 73.5% of the original capacity, a Coulombic efficiency of 99.7% at 150 cycles, and a high capacity of 200 mAh g−1 even at 20 C. Furthermore, a full cell test using the proposed electrode material showed stable cell performance with 89% retention at the 150th cycle.

Abstract
Here, dual-sensitive fluorescent branched alginate-polyethyleneimine copolymer (bAPSC) nanogels were synthesized from thiolated alginate and stearoyl-derivatized branched polyethyleneimine. The formation of bAPSC conjugates was confirmed through proton nuclear magnetic resonance and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, whereas dynamic light scattering was used to measure the particle size and ζ potential of the nanogels. The fluorescent properties of the nanogels were confirmed through fluorescent spectroscopy and microscopy. In addition to the excitation-dependent fluorescence behavior, the fluorescence emission intensity of bAPSC was altered by both pH and γ-irradiation. This intensity was higher at a lower pH than at a higher pH, and it slightly decreased after γ-irradiation. The drug loading and encapsulation efficiency of bAPSC were 25.9% and 11.2%, respectively. An in vitro drug release study revealed that the synthesized nanogels release their doxorubicin (Dox) contents in a time-dependent manner, and the drug release was higher after 96 h of incubation. Approximately 43.74% and 88.36% of Dox was released after 96 h of incubation at pH 5.5 in the absence and presence of glutathione (GSH), respectively. However, relatively lower drug release, approximately 21.6% and 16%, was observed in the presence and absence of GSH at pH 7.4, respectively. Fluorescence microscopy confirmed that Dox-loaded bAPSC nanogels were internalized by HeLa cells, and drug distribution was easily tracked using fluorescent materials without additional probing agents. Moreover, cellular cytotoxicity and hemolysis results revealed less cytotoxicity and hemocompatibility of the synthesized nanogels, confirming that they are the most favorable alternative drug carriers for drug delivery systems.
