Abstract
An immune reaction known as inflammation serves as a shield from external danger signals, but an overactive immune system may additionally lead to tissue damage and even a variety of inflammatory disorders. By inheriting biological functionalities and serving as both a therapeutic medication and a drug carrier, cell membrane-based nanotherapeutics offer the potential to treat inflammatory disorders. To further strengthen the anti-inflammatory benefits of natural cell membranes, researchers alter and optimize the membranes using engineering methods. This review focuses on engineered cell membrane-based nanotherapeutics (ECMNs) and their application in treating inflammation-related diseases. Specifically, this article discusses the methods of engineering cell membranes for inflammatory diseases and examines the progress of ECMNs in inflammation-targeted therapy, inflammation-neutralizing therapy, and inflammation-immunomodulatory therapy. Additionally, the article looks into the perspectives and challenges of ECMNs in inflammatory treatment and offers suggestions as well as guidance to encourage further investigations and implementations in this area.

Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 131:111822. [PMID: 38503010 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.111822] [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: 01/20/2024] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
Previous study has indicated that Celastrol (Cel) has various physiological and pharmacological effects, including antibacterial, antioxidant, pro-apoptotic, anticancer and anti-rheumatoid arthritis (RA) effects. However, low water solubility, low oral bioavailability, narrow treatment window, and high incidence of systemic adverse reactions still limit the further clinical application of Cel. Here, aiming at effectively overcome those shortcomings of Cel to boost its beneficial effects for treating RA, we developed the leukosome (LEUKO) coated biomimetic nanoparticles (NPs) for the targeted delivery of Cel to arthritis injury area in RA. LEUKO were synthesized using membrane proteins purified from activated J774 macrophage. LEUKO and Cel-loaded LEUKO (Cel@LEUKO) were characterized using dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. Our results demonstrated that Cel@LEUKO can inhibit the inflammatory response of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced mouse monocyte macrophage leukemia cells (RAW264.7 cells) and human rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblasts (MH7A) cells through the inhibition of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-NF-κB pathway. In addition, research has shown that LEUKO effectively targets and transports Cel to the inflammatory site of RA, increased drug concentration in affected areas, reduced systemic toxicity of Cel, and reduced clinical symptoms, inflammatory infiltration, bone erosion, and serum inflammatory factors in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rats.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an idiopathic chronic inflammatory bowel disease with high morbidity and an increased risk of cancer or death, resulting in a heavy societal medical burden. While current treatment modalities have been successful in achieving long-term remission and reducing the risk of complications, IBD remains incurable. Nanomedicine has the potential to address the high toxic side effects and low efficacy in IBD treatment. However, synthesized nanomedicines typically exhibit some degree of immune rejection, off-target effects, and a poor ability to cross biological barriers, limiting the development of clinical applications. The emergence of bionic materials and bionic technologies has reshaped the landscape in novel pharmaceutical fields. Biomimetic drug-delivery systems can effectively improve biocompatibility and reduce immunogenicity. Some bioinspired strategies can mimic specific components, targets or immune mechanisms in pathological processes to produce targeting effects for precise disease control. This article highlights recent research on bioinspired and biomimetic strategies for the treatment of IBD and discusses the challenges and future directions in the field to advance the treatment of IBD.

Abstract
Gut microbiota can coordinate with different tissues and organs to maintain human health, which derives the concept of the gut-X axis. Conversely, the dysbiosis of gut microbiota leads to the occurrence and development of various diseases, such as neurological diseases, liver diseases, and even cancers. Therefore, the modulation of gut microbiota offers new opportunities in the field of medicines. Antibiotics, probiotics or other treatments might restore unbalanced gut microbiota, which effects do not match what people have expected. Recently, nanomedicines with the high targeting ability and reduced toxicity make them an appreciative choice for relieving disease through targeting gut-X axis. Considering this paradigm-setting trend, the current review summarizes the advancements in gut microbiota and its related nanomedicines. Specifically, this article introduces the immunological effects of gut microbiota, summarizes the gut-X axis-associated diseases, and highlights the nanotherapeutics-mediated treatment via remolding the gut-X axis. Moreover, this review also discusses the challenges in studies related to nanomedicines targeting the gut microbiota and offers the future perspective, thereby aiming at charting a course toward clinic.

Cell membrane nanomaterials composed of phospholipids and glycoproteins for drug delivery in inflammatory bowel disease: A review. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 249:126000.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a serious chronic intestinal disorder with an increasing global incidence. However, current treatment strategies, such as anti-inflammatory drugs and probiotics, have limitations in terms of safety, stability, and effectiveness. The emergence of targeted nanoparticles has revolutionized IBD treatment by enhancing the biological properties of drugs and promoting efficiency and safety. Unlike synthetic nanoparticles, cell membrane nanomaterials (CMNs) consist primarily of biological macromolecules, including phospholipids, proteins, and sugars. CMNs include red blood cell membranes, macrophage membranes, and leukocyte membranes, which possess abundant glycoprotein receptors and ligands on their surfaces, allowing for the formation of cell-to-cell connections with other biological macromolecules. Consequently, they exhibit superior cell affinity, evade immune responses, and target inflammation effectively, making them ideal material for targeted delivery of IBD therapies. This review explores various CMNs delivery systems for IBD treatment. However, due to the complexity and harsh nature of the intestinal microenvironment, the lack of flexibility or loss of selectivity poses challenges in designing single CMNs delivery strategies. Therefore, we propose a hierarchically programmed delivery modality that combines CMNs with pH, charge, ROS and ligand-modified responsive nanoparticles. This approach significantly improves delivery efficiency and points the way for future research in this area.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) treatments have shifted from small-molecular therapeutics to the oncoming biologics. The first-line biologics against the moderate-to-severe IBDs are mainly involved in antibodies against integrins, cytokines and cell adhesion molecules. Besides, other biologics including growth factors, antioxidative enzyme, anti-inflammatory peptides, nucleic acids, stem cells and probiotics have also been explored at preclinical or clinical studies. Biologics with variety of origins have their unique potentials in attenuating immune inflammation or gut mucosa healing. Great advances in use of biologics for IBDs treatments have been archived in recent years. But delivering issues for biologic have also been confronted due to their liable nature. In this review, we will focus on biologics for IBDs treatments in the recent publications; summarize the current landscapes of biologics and their promise to control disease progress. Alternatively, the confronted challenges for delivering biologics will also be analyzed. To combat these drawbacks, some new delivering strategies are provided: firstly, designing the functional materials with high affinity toward biologics; secondly, the delivering vehicle systems to encapsulate the liable biologics; thirdly, the topical adhering delivery systems as enema. To our knowledge, this review is the first study to summarize the updated usage of the oncoming biologics for IBDs, their confronted challenges in term of delivery and the potential combating strategies.

Abstract
Inflammatory disease (ID) is a general term that covers all diseases in which chronic inflammation performs as the major manifestation of pathogenesis. Traditional therapies based on the anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive drugs are palliative with the short-term remission. The emergence of nanodrugs has been reported to solve the potential causes and prevent recurrences, thus holding great potential for the treatment of IDs. Among various nanomaterial systems, transition metal-based smart nanosystems (TMSNs) with unique electronic structures possess therapeutic advantages owing to their large surface area to volume ratio, high photothermal conversion efficiency, X-ray absorption capacity, and multiple catalytic enzyme activities. In this review, the rationale, design principle, and therapeutic mechanisms of TMSNs for treatments of various IDs are summarized. Specifically, TMSNs can not only be designed to scavenge danger signals, such as reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and cell-free DNA, but also can be engineered to block the mechanism of initiating inflammatory responses. In addition, TMSNs can be further applied as nanocarriers to deliver anti-inflammatory drugs. Finally, the opportunities and challenges of TMSNs are discussed, and the future directions of TMSN-based ID treatment for clinical applications are emphasized.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) represents a group of chronic and debilitating inflammatory diseases affecting various parts of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The disease incidence and prevalence have been growing worldwide since the early 21st century and this upward trend is expected to continue. Due to a complex and variable clinical presentation across different patients, the efficacy of a one-size-fits-all commercial formulation for IBD remains limited. Here, we present the development of a novel adjustable and controllable release, 3D printed colonic targeting (CORR3CT) dosage form of budesonide, to reduce off-targeting adverse effects and to potentially replace the use of enemas, which are invasive and commonly associated with poor adherence. An in vitro Gastrointestinal Simulated System (GISS) model was employed in this study to examine the ability of the 3D printed tablets to deliver budesonide to various targeted sites along the gastrointestinal tract. CORR3CT tablet with Pill-in-pill configurations were designed, fabricated and the relationship between the 3D printed design and resultant dissolution profiles were established. The 3D printed tablets also exhibited excellent and comparable dose accuracy and quality versus commercial tablets, while enhancing the delivery of budesonide to the targeted colon region. Overall, this study has laid the foundational proof of concept demonstrating controllable targeting of oral therapeutics along the gastrointestinal tract using 3D printing technologies.

Abstract
AbstractSmall-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) represent a potentially powerful approach to the treatment of osteosarcoma (OS). However, dose-limiting toxicity, therapeutic efficacy, and targeting specificity are significant barriers to the use of TKIs in the clinic. Notably among TKIs, ponatinib demonstrated potent anti-tumor activity; however, it received an FDA black box warning for potential side effects. We propose ponatinib-loaded biomimetic nanoparticles (NPs) to repurpose ponatinib as an efficient therapeutic option for OS. In this study, we demonstrate enhanced targeting ability and maintain potent ponatinib nano-therapeutic activity, while also reducing toxicity. In in vitro two- and three-dimensional models, we demonstrate that ponatinib-loaded biomimetic NPs maintain the efficacy of the free drug, while in vivo we show that they can improve tumor targeting, slow tumor growth, and reduce evidence of systemic toxicities. Though there is limited Pon encapsulation within NPs, this platform may improve current therapeutic approaches and reduce dosage-related side effects to achieve better clinical outcomes in OS patients.

Abstract
Liver inflammation represents a major clinical problem in a wide range of pathologies. Among the strategies to prevent liver failure, dexamethasone (DXM) has been widely used to suppress inflammatory responses. The use of nanocarriers for encapsulation and sustained release of glucocorticoids to liver cells could provide a solution to prevent severe side effects associated with systemic delivery as the conventional treatment regime. Here we describe a nanostructured lipid carrier developed to efficiently encapsulate and release DXM. This nano-formulation proved to be stable over time, did not interact in vitro with plasma opsonins, and was well tolerated by primary non-parenchymal liver cells (NPCs). Released DXM preserved its pharmacological activity, as evidenced by inducing robust anti-inflammatory responses in NPCs. Taken together, nanostructured lipid carriers may constitute a reliable platform for the delivery of DXM to treat pathologies associated with chronic liver inflammation.

Abstract
The development of biomimetic nanoparticles (NPs) has revolutionized the concept of nanomedicine by offering a completely new set of biocompatible materials to formulate innovative drug delivery systems capable of imitating the behavior of cells. Specifically, the use of leukocyte-derived membrane proteins to functionalize nanovesicles (leukosomes) can enable their long circulation and target the inflamed endothelium present in many inflammatory pathologies and tumors, making them a promising and versatile drug delivery system. However, these studies did not elucidate the critical experimental parameters involved in leukosomes formulation. In the present study, we approached the preparation of leukosomes using a design of experiment (DoE) method to better understand the influence of experimental parameters on leukosomes features such as size, size distribution, and protein loading. We also validated this formulation technologically and tested its behavior in in vitro colorectal cancer (CRC) models, including CRC patient-derived tumor organoids (PDOs). We demonstrated leukosomes biocompatibility, endothelium adhesion capability, and tumor target in three-dimensional (3D) settings using CRC cell lines. Overall, our study offers a novel conceptual framework for biomimetic NPs using a DoE strategy and consolidates the high therapeutic potential of leukosomes as a viable drug delivery system for anti-inflammatory and antineoplastic applications.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic illness characterized by relapsing inflammation of the intestines. The disorder is stratified according to the severity and is marked by its two main phenotypical representations: Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. Pathogenesis of the disease is ambiguous and is expected to have interactivity between genetic disposition, environmental factors such as bacterial agents, and dysregulated immune response. Treatment for IBD aims to reduce symptom extent and severity and halt disease progression. The mainstay drugs have been 5-aminosalicylates (5-ASAs), corticosteroids, and immunosuppressive agents. Parenteral, oral and rectal routes are the conventional methods of drug delivery, and among all, oral administration is most widely adopted. However, problems of systematic drug reactions and low specificity in delivering drugs to the inflamed sites have emerged with these regular routes of delivery. Novel drug delivery systems have been introduced to overcome several therapeutic obstacles and for localized drug delivery to target tissues. Enteric-coated microneedle pills, various nano-drug delivery techniques, prodrug systems, lipid-based vesicular systems, hybrid drug delivery systems, and biologic drug delivery systems constitute some of these novel methods. Microneedles are painless, they dislodge their content at the affected site, and their release can be prolonged. Recombinant bacteria such as genetically engineered Lactococcus Lactis and eukaryotic cells, including GM immune cells and red blood cells as nanoparticle carriers, can be plausible delivery methods when evaluating biologic systems. Nano-particle drug delivery systems consisting of various techniques are also employed as nanoparticles can penetrate through inflamed regions and adhere to the thick mucus of the diseased site. Prodrug systems such as 5-ASAs formulations or their derivatives are effective in reducing colonic damage. Liposomes can be modified with both hydrophilic and lipophilic particles and act as lipid-based vesicular systems, while hybrid drug delivery systems containing an internal nanoparticle section for loading drugs are potential routes too. Leukosomes are also considered as possible carrier systems, and results from mouse models have revealed that they control anti- and pro-inflammatory molecules.

Abstract
In the last decades, many nanovectors were developed for different diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. However, most nanosystems have been designed using a “bottom-up” approach, in which the basic components of the nanovector become assembled to achieve complex and specific behaviors. Despite the fine control of formulative conditions, the complexity of these systems often results cumbersome and difficult to scale-up. Recently, biomimetic materials emerged as a complementary or alternative design approach through a “top-down strategy”, using cell-derived materials as building blocks to formulate innovative nanovectors. The use of cell membranes as nanoparticle coatings endows nanomaterials with the biological identity and some of the functions of the cells they are derived from. In this review, we discuss some of the latest examples of membrane coated and membrane-derived biomimetic nanomaterials and underline the common general functions offered by the biomaterials used. From these examples, we suggest a systematic classification of these biomimetic materials based on their biological sources and formulation techniques, with their respective advantages and disadvantages, and summarize the current technologies used for membranes isolation and integration on nanovectors. We also discuss some current technical limitations and hint to future direction of the improvement for biomimetics.

Abstract
Nanoparticles exposed to biological fluids such as blood, quickly interact with their surrounding milieu resulting in a biological coating that results in large part as a function of the physicochemical properties of the nanomaterial. The large nanoparticle surface area-to-volume ratio further augments binding of biological molecules and the resulting biomolecular or protein corona, once thought of as problematic biofouling, is now viewed as a rich source of biological information that can guide the development of nanomedicines. This review gives an overview of the utility of the protein corona in proteomic profiling and discusses how a better understanding of nano-bio interactions can accelerate the clinical translation of nanomedicines and facilitate the identification of disease-specific biomarkers. With the FDA requirement of the protein corona analysis of nanoparticles in place, it is envisaged that analyzing the protein corona of nanoparticles on a case-by-case basis can provide highly valuable nano-bio interface information that can aid and improve their clinical translation.

Abstract
Despite immunosuppression is critical for reducing immune overactivation, existing immunosuppressive agents are largely restricted by low inhibition efficiencies and unpredictable off-target toxicities. Here, the use of the dopaminergic system is reported to suppress hyperactive immune responses in local inflamed tissues. A polydopamine nanoparticular immunosuppressant (PDNI) is synthesized to stimulate regulatory T (Treg) cells and directly inhibit T helper 1 (Th1), Th2, and Th17 cells. Moreover, PDNI can inhibit the activation of dendritic cells to upregulate the ratio of Treg/Th17, which assists the reversion of inflammatory responses. The application of dopaminergic immunoregulation is further disclosed by combining with gut microbiota modulation for treating inflammations. The combination is implemented by coating living beneficial bacteria with PDNI. Following oral delivery, coated bacteria not only suppress the hyperactive immune responses but also positively modulate the gut microbiome in mice characterized with colitis. Strikingly, the combination demonstrates enhanced treatment efficacies in comparison with clinical aminosalicylic acid in two murine models of colitis. The use of the dopaminergic system opens a window to intervene immune responses and provides a versatile platform for the development of new therapeutics for treating inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Humans have a limited postinjury regenerative ability. Therefore, cell-derived biomaterials have long been utilized for tissue repair. Cells with multipotent differentiation potential, such as stem cells, have been administered to patients for the treatment of various diseases. Researchers expected that these cells would mediate tissue repair and regeneration through their multipotency. However, increasing evidence has suggested that in most stem cell therapies, the paracrine effect but not cell differentiation or regeneration is the major driving force of tissue repair. Additionally, ethical and safety problems have limited the application of stem cell therapies. Therefore, nonliving cell-derived techniques such as extracellular vesicle (EV) therapy and cell membrane-based therapy to fulfil the unmet demand for tissue repair are important. Nonliving cell-derived biomaterials are safer and more controllable, and their efficacy is easier to enhance through bioengineering approaches. Here, we described the development and evolution from cell therapy to EV therapy and cell membrane-based therapy for tissue repair. Furthermore, the latest advances in nonliving cell-derived therapies empowered by advanced engineering techniques are emphatically reviewed, and their potential and challenges in the future are discussed.

Abstract
Current treatment strategies for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) seek to alleviate the undesirable symptoms of the disorder. Despite the higher specificity of newer generation therapeutics, e.g. monoclonal antibodies, adverse effects still arise from their interference with non-specific systemic immune cascades. To circumvent such undesirable effects, both conventional and newer therapeutic options can benefit from various targeting strategies. Of course, both the development and the assessment of the efficiency of such targeted delivery systems necessitate the use of suitable in vivo and in vitro models representing relevant pathophysiological manifestations of the disorder. Accordingly, the current review seeks to provide a comprehensive discussion of the available preclinical models with emphasis on human in vitro models of IBD, along with their potentials and limitations. This is followed by an elaboration on the advancements in the field of biology- and nanotechnology-based targeted drug delivery systems and the potential rooms for improvement to facilitate their clinical translation.

Inflammatory disease (ID) is an umbrella term encompassing all illnesses involving chronic inflammation as the central manifestation of pathogenesis. These include, inflammatory bowel diseases, hepatitis, pulmonary disorders, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, pancreatitis, arthritis, periodontitis, psoriasis. The IDs create a severe burden on healthcare and significantly impact the global socio-economic balance. Unfortunately, the standard therapies that rely on a combination of anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive agents are palliative and provide only short-term relief. In contrast, the emerging concept of immunomodulatory nanosystems (IMNs) has the potential to address the underlying causes and prevent reoccurrence, thereby, creating new opportunities for treating IDs. The IMNs offer exquisite ability to precisely modulate the immune system for a therapeutic advantage. The nano-sized dimension of IMNs allows them to efficiently infiltrate lymphatic drainage, interact with immune cells, and subsequently to undergo rapid endocytosis by hyperactive immune cells (HICs) at inflamed sites. Thus, IMNs serve to restore dysfunctional or HICs and alleviate the inflammation. We identified that different IMNs exert their immunomodulatory action via either of the seven mechanisms to modulate; cytokine production, cytokine neutralization, cellular infiltration, macrophage polarization, HICs growth inhibition, stimulating T-reg mediated tolerance and modulating oxidative-stress. In this article, we discussed representative examples of IMNs by highlighting their rationalization, design principle, and mechanism of action in context of treating various IDs. Lastly, we highlighted technical challenges in the application of IMNs and explored the future direction of research, which could potentially help to overcome those challenges.

Abstract
Over the past decades, considerable attention has been dedicated to the exploitation of diverse immune cells as therapeutic and/or diagnostic cell-based microrobots for hard-to-treat disorders. To date, a plethora of therapeutics based on alive immune cells, surface-engineered immune cells, immunocytes' cell membranes, leukocyte-derived extracellular vesicles or exosomes, and artificial immune cells have been investigated and a few have been introduced into the market. These systems take advantage of the unique characteristics and functions of immune cells, including their presence in circulating blood and various tissues, complex crosstalk properties, high affinity to different self and foreign markers, unique potential of their on-demand navigation and activity, production of a variety of chemokines/cytokines, as well as being cytotoxic in particular conditions. Here, the latest progress in the development of engineered therapeutics and diagnostics inspired by immune cells to ameliorate cancer, inflammatory conditions, autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular complications, and infectious diseases is reviewed, and finally, the perspective for their clinical application is delineated.

Abstract
Recent advances in the generation, purification and cellular delivery of RNA have enabled development of RNA-based therapeutics for a broad array of applications. RNA therapeutics comprise a rapidly expanding category of drugs that will change the standard of care for many diseases and actualize personalized medicine. These drugs are cost effective, relatively simple to manufacture, and can target previously undruggable pathways. It is a disruptive therapeutic technology, as small biotech startups, as well as academic groups, can rapidly develop new and personalized RNA constructs. In this review we discuss general concepts of different classes of RNA-based therapeutics, including antisense oligonucleotides, aptamers, small interfering RNAs, microRNAs, and messenger RNA. Furthermore, we provide an overview of the RNA-based therapies that are currently being evaluated in clinical trials or have already received regulatory approval. The challenges and advantages associated with use of RNA-based drugs are also discussed along with various approaches for RNA delivery. In addition, we introduce a new concept of hospital-based RNA therapeutics and share our experience with establishing such a platform at Houston Methodist Hospital.

Abstract
Advances in material science have set the stage for nanoparticle-based research with potent applications for the diagnosis, bioimaging, and precise treatment of diseases. Despite the wide range of biomaterials developed, the rational design of biomaterials with predictable bioactivity and safety remains a critical challenge. In recent years, the field of cell-membrane-based therapeutics has emerged as a promising platform for addressing unmet medical needs. The utilization of natural cell membranes endows biomaterials with a remarkable ability to serve as biointerfaces that interact with the host environment. To improve the function and efficacy of cell-membrane-based therapeutics, a series of novel strategies is developed as cell-membrane-display nanotechnology, which utilizes various methods to selectively display therapeutic molecules of cell membranes on nanoparticles. Although cell-membrane-display nanotechnology remains in the early phases, considerable work is currently being conducted in the field. This review discusses details of innovative strategies for displaying cell-membrane molecules, including the following: 1) displaying molecules of cell membranes on biomaterials, 2) pretreating cell membranes to induce increased expression of inherent molecules of cell membranes and enhance their function, and 3) inserting additional functional molecules on cell membranes. For each area, the theoretical basis, application scenarios, and potential development are highlighted.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) is one of the most promising nanomaterials used in biomedicine. However, studies about its adverse effects on the intestine in state of inflammation remain limited. This study aimed to explore the underlying effects of GO on intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) in vitro and colitis in vivo. We found that GO could exert toxic effects on NCM460 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner and promote inflammation. Furthermore, GO caused lysosomal dysfunction and then blockaded autophagy flux. Moreover, pharmacological autophagy inhibitor 3-Methyladenine could reverse GO-induced LC3B and p62 expression levels, reduce expression levels of IL-6, IL-8, TLR4, and CXCL2, and increase the level of IL-10. In vivo, C57BL/6 mice were treated with 2.5% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in drinking water for five consecutive days to induce colitis. Then, GO at 60 mg/kg dose was administered through the oral route every two days from day 2 to day 8. These results showed that GO aggravated DSS-induced colitis, characterized by shortening of the colon and severe pathological changes, and induced autophagy. In conclusion, GO caused the abnormal autophagy in IECs and exacerbated DSS-induced colitis in mice. Our research indicated that GO may contribute to the development of intestinal inflammation by inducing IECs autophagy dysfunction.

Prunus spinosa Extract Loaded in Biomimetic Nanoparticles Evokes In Vitro Anti-Inflammatory and Wound Healing Activities. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 11:nano11010036.

Abstract
Prunus spinosa fruits (PSF) contain different phenolic compounds showing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Innovative drug delivery systems such as biomimetic nanoparticles could improve the activity of PSF extract by promoting (i) the protection of payload into the lipidic bilayer, (ii) increased accumulation to the diseased tissue due to specific targeting properties, (iii) improved biocompatibility, (iv) low toxicity and increased bioavailability. Using membrane proteins extracted from human monocyte cell line THP-1 cells and a mixture of phospholipids, we formulated two types of PSF-extract-loaded biomimetic vesicles differing from each other for the presence of either 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC) or 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1'-rac-glycerol) (DOPG). The biological activity of free extract (PSF), compared to both types of extract-loaded vesicles (PSF-DOPCs and PSF-DOPGs) and empty vesicles (DOPCs and DOPGs), was evaluated in vitro on HUVEC cells. PSF-DOPCs showed preferential incorporation of the extract. When enriched into the nanovesicles, the extract showed a significantly increased anti-inflammatory activity, and a pronounced wound-healing effect (with PSF-DOPCs more efficient than PSF-DOPG) compared to free PSF. This innovative drug delivery system, combining nutraceutical active ingredients into a biomimetic formulation, represents a possible adjuvant therapy for the treatment of wound healing. This nanoplatform could be useful for the encapsulation/enrichment of other nutraceutical products with short stability and low bioavailability.

Abstract
With the changing face of healthcare, there is a demand for drug delivery systems that have increased efficacy and biocompatibility. Nanotechnology derived drug carrier systems were found to be ideal candidates to meet these demands. Among the vast number of nanosized delivery systems, biomimetic nanoparticles have been researched at length. These nanoparticles mimic cellular functions and are highly biocompatible. They are also able to avoid clearance by the reticuloendothelial system which increases the time spent by them in the systemic circulation. Additionally, their low immunogenicity and targeting ability increase their significance as drug carriers. Based on their core material we have summarized them as biomimetic inorganic nanoparticles, biomimetic polymeric nanoparticles, and biomimetic lipid nanoparticles. The core then may be coated using membranes derived from erythrocytes, cancer cells, leukocytes, stem cells, and other membranes to endow them with biomimetic properties. They can be used for personalized therapy and diagnosis of a large number of diseases, primarily cancer. This review summarizes the various therapeutic approaches using biomimetic nanoparticles along with their applications in the field of cancer imaging, nucleic acid therapy and theranostic properties. A brief overview about toxicity concerns related to these nanoconstructs has been added to provide knowledge about biocompatibility of such nanoparticles.

Abstract
Recent studies on coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID-19) pathophysiology indicated the cytokine release syndrome induced by the virus as the main cause of mortality. Patients with severe COVID-19 infection present a systemic hyper inflammation that can lead to lung and multi-organ injuries. Among the most recent treatments, corticosteroids have been identified to be effective in mitigating these catastrophic effects. Our group has recently developed leukocyte-derived nanovesicles, termed leukosomes, able to target in vivo the inflamed vasculature associated with pathological conditions including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and sepsis. Herein, to gain insights on the anti-inflammatory properties of leukosomes, we investigated their ability to reduce uncontrolled inflammation in a lethal model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemia, recapitulating the cytokine storm syndrome observed in COVID-19 infection after encapsulating dexamethasone. Treated animals showed a significant survival advantage and an improved immune response resolution, as demonstrated by a cytokine array analysis of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and other immune-relevant markers. Our results showed that leukosomes enhance the therapeutic activity of dexamethasone and better control the inflammatory response compared to the free drug. Such an approach could be useful for the development of personalized therapies in the treatment of hyperinflammation related to infectious diseases, including the ones caused by COVID-19.

Abstract
The improvement and maintenance of enzymatic activities represent major challenges. However, to address these we developed novel biomimetic polysaccharide hyaluronan (Hn)-cloaked lipidic nanovesicles (BHLN) and microassemblies (BHLNM) as enzyme carriers that function by entrapping enzymes in the core or by tethering them to the inner/outer surfaces via covalent interactions. The effectiveness of these enzyme carriers was demonstrated through an evaluation of the enzymatic activity and anti-hyperuricemia bioactivity of urate oxidase (also called uricase, Uase). We showed that Uase was effectively loaded within the BHLN/BHLNM (UHLN/UHLNM) and maintained good enzymatic bioactivity through a range of effects, including isolation from the external environment due to the vesicle-carrying (shielding effect), avoidance of recognition by the reticuloendothelial system due to Hn-cloaking (long-term effect), production of beneficial conformational changes (allosteric effect) due to a favorable internal microenvironment of construction and vesicle loading, and stabilization due to the reversible conjugation of Uase or vesicle and serum albumin (deposit effect). UHLN/UHLNM had significantly increased bioavailability (∼533% and ∼331% compared to Uase) and demonstrated greatly improved efficacy, whereby the time required for UHLN/UHLNM to lower the plasma uric acid concentration to a normal level was much shorter than that for free Uase. The interactions of the therapeutic enzyme (Uase), biomimetic membrane components (Hn and phospholipid), and serum albumin were investigated with a fluorescent probe and computational simulations to help understand the superior properties of UHLN/UHLNM.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis and manifests as a complex and dysregulated immune response. To date, there is no cure for IBD; thus, lifelong administration of maintenance drugs is often necessary. Since conventional IBD treatment strategies do not target the sites of inflammation, only limited efficacy is observed with their use. Moreover, the possibility of severe side effects resulting from systemic drug redistribution is high when conventional drug treatments are used. Therefore, a straightforward disease-targeted drug delivery system is desirable. Based on the pathophysiological changes associated with IBD, novel site-specific targeted drug delivery strategies that deliver drugs directly to the inflammation sites can enhance drug accumulation and decrease side effects. This review summarizes novel inflammation targeted delivery systems in the management of IBD. It also discusses the challenges and new perspectives in this field.

Abstract
Nanoparticle capture and elimination by the immune system are great obstacles for drug delivery. Camouflaging nanoparticles with cell membrane represents a promising strategy to communicate and negotiate with the immune system. As a novel class of nanotherapeutics, such biomimetic nanoparticles inherit specific biological functionalities of the source cells (e.g., erythrocytes, immune cells, cancer cells and platelets) in order to evade immune elimination, prolong circulation time, and even target a disease region by virtue of the homing tendency of the cell membrane protein. In this review, we begin with an overview of different cell membranes that can be utilized to create a biointerface on nanoparticles. Subsequently, we elaborate on the state-of-the-art of cell membrane biomimetic nanoparticles for drug delivery. In particular, a summary of data on circulation capacity and targeting efficiency by camouflaged nanoparticles is presented. In addition to cancer therapy, inflammation treatment, as an emerging application of biomimetic nanoparticles, is specifically included. The challenges and outlook of this technology are discussed.

Abstract
Nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems have been synthesized from a wide array of materials. The therapeutic success of these platforms hinges upon their ability to favorably interact with the biological environment (both systemically and locally) and recognize the diseased target tissue. The immune system, composed of a highly coordinated organization of cells trained to recognize foreign bodies, represents a key mediator of these interactions. Although components of this system may act as a barrier to nanoparticle (NP) delivery, the immune system can also be exploited to target and trigger signaling cues that facilitate the therapeutic response stemming from systemic administration of NPs. The nano-bio interface represents the key facilitator of this communication exchange, where the surface properties of NPs govern their in vivo fate. Cell membrane-based biomimetic nanoparticles have emerged as one approach to achieve targeted drug delivery by actively engaging and communicating with the biological milieu. In this review, we will highlight the relationship between these biomimetic nanoparticles and the immune system, emphasizing the role of tuning the nano-bio interface in the immunomodulation of diseases. We will also discuss the therapeutic applications of this approach with biomimetic nanoparticles, focusing on specific diseases ranging from cancer to infectious diseases. Lastly, we will provide a critical evaluation on the current state of this field of cell membrane-based biomimetic nanoparticles and its future directions in immune-based therapy.

Abstract
: Many synthetic drugs and monoclonal antibodies are currently in use to treat Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). However, they all are implicated in causing severe side effects and long-term use results in many complications. Numerous in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that phytochemicals and natural macromolecules from plants and animals reduce IBD-related complications with encouraging results. Additionally, many of them modify enzymatic activity, alleviate oxidative stress, and downregulate pro-inflammatory transcriptional factors and cytokine secretion. Translational significance of natural nanomedicine and strategies to investigate future natural product-based nanomedicine is discussed. Our focus in this review is to summarize the use of phytochemicals and macromolecules encapsulated in nanoparticles for the treatment of IBD and IBD-associated colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Innovative approaches in nanoparticle design have facilitated the creation of new formulations of nanoparticles that are capable of selectively calibrating the immune response. These nanomaterials may be engineered to interact with specific cellular and molecular targets. Recent advancements in nanoparticle synthesis have enabled surface functionalization of particles that mimic the diversity of ligands on the cell surface. Platforms synthesized using these design principles, called "biomimetic" nanoparticles, have achieved increasingly sophisticated targeting specificity and cellular trafficking capabilities. This holds great promise for next generation therapies that seek to achieve immune tolerance. In this review, we discuss the importance of physical design parameters including size, shape, and biomimetic surface functionalization, on the biodistribution, safety and efficacy of biologic nanoparticles. We will also explore potential applications for immune tolerance for organ or stem cell transplantation.

Abstract
Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) are used in food additives, food packages, and therapeutic purposes owing to their useful properties, Therefore, human beings are orally exposed to exogenous nanomaterials frequently, which means the intestine is one of the primary targets of nanomaterials. Consequently, it is of great importance to understand the interaction between nanomaterials and the intestine. When nanomaterials enter into gut lumen, they inevitably interact with various components and thereby display different effects on the intestine based on their locations; these are known as location-oriented effects (LOE). The intestinal LOE confer a new biological-effect profile for nanomaterials, which is dependent on the involvement of the following biological processes: nano-mucus interaction, nano-intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) interaction, nano-immune interaction, and nano-microbiota interaction. A deep understanding of NM-induced LOE will facilitate the design of safer NMs and the development of more efficient nanomedicine for intestine-related diseases. Herein, recent progress in this field is reviewed in order to better understand the LOE of nanomaterials. The distant effects of nanomaterials coupling with microbiota are also highlighted. Investigation of the interaction of nanomaterials with the intestine will stimulate other new research areas beyond intestinal nanotoxicity.

Abstract
In the last decades, the staggering progress in nanotechnology brought around a wide and heterogeneous range of nanoparticle-based platforms for the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. Most of these systems are designed to be administered intravenously. This administration route allows the nanoparticles (NPs) to widely distribute in the body and reach deep organs without invasive techniques. When these nanovectors encounter the biological environment of systemic circulation, a dynamic interplay occurs between the circulating proteins and the NPs, themselves. The set of proteins that bind to the NP surface is referred to as the protein corona (PC). PC has a critical role in making the particles easily recognized by the innate immune system, causing their quick clearance by phagocytic cells located in organs such as the lungs, liver, and spleen. For the same reason, PC defines the immunogenicity of NPs by priming the immune response to them and, ultimately, their immunological toxicity. Furthermore, the protein corona can cause the physical destabilization and agglomeration of particles. These problems induced to consider the PC only as a biological barrier to overcome in order to achieve efficient NP-based targeting. This review will discuss the latest advances in the characterization of PC, development of stealthy NP formulations, as well as the manipulation and employment of PC as an alternative resource for prolonging NP half-life, as well as its use in diagnostic applications.

Abstract
Rationale:
Through localized delivery of rapamycin via a biomimetic drug delivery system, it is possible to reduce vascular inflammation and thus the progression of vascular disease.
Objective:
Use biomimetic nanoparticles to deliver rapamycin to the vessel wall to reduce inflammation in an in vivo model of atherosclerosis after a short dosing schedule.
Methods and Results:
Biomimetic nanoparticles (leukosomes) were synthesized using membrane proteins purified from activated J774 macrophages. Rapamycin-loaded nanoparticles were characterized using dynamic light scattering and were found to have a diameter of 108±2.3 nm, a surface charge of −15.4±14.4 mV, and a polydispersity index of 0.11 +/ 0.2. For in vivo studies, ApoE
−/−
mice were fed a high-fat diet for 12 weeks. Mice were injected with either PBS, free rapamycin (5 mg/kg), or rapamycin-loaded leukosomes (Leuko-Rapa; 5 mg/kg) once daily for 7 days. In mice treated with Leuko-Rapa, flow cytometry of disaggregated aortic tissue revealed fewer proliferating macrophages in the aorta (15.6±9.79 %) compared with untreated mice (30.2±13.34 %) and rapamycin alone (26.8±9.87 %). Decreased macrophage proliferation correlated with decreased levels of MCP (monocyte chemoattractant protein)-1 and IL (interleukin)-b1 in mice treated with Leuko-Rapa. Furthermore, Leuko-Rapa–treated mice also displayed significantly decreased MMP (matrix metalloproteinases) activity in the aorta (mean difference 2554±363.9,
P
=9.95122×10
−6
). No significant changes in metabolic or inflammation markers observed in liver metabolic assays. Histological analysis showed improvements in lung morphology, with no alterations in heart, spleen, lung, or liver in Leuko-Rapa–treated mice.
Conclusions:
We showed that our biomimetic nanoparticles showed a decrease in proliferating macrophage population that was accompanied by the reduction of key proinflammatory cytokines and changes in plaque morphology. This proof-of-concept showed that our platform was capable of suppressing macrophage proliferation within the aorta after a short dosing schedule (7 days) and with a favorable toxicity profile. This treatment could be a promising intervention for the acute stabilization of late-stage plaques.

Abstract
Cancer treatment still represents a formidable challenge, despite substantial advancements in available therapies being made over the past decade. One major issue is poor therapeutic efficacy due to lack of specificity and low bioavailability. The progress of nanotechnology and the development of a variety of nanoplatforms have had a significant impact in improving the therapeutic outcome of chemotherapeutics. Nanoparticles can overcome various biological barriers and localize at tumor site, while simultaneously protecting a therapeutic cargo and increasing its circulation time. Despite this, due to their synthetic origin, nanoparticles are often detected by the immune system and preferentially sequestered by filtering organs. Exosomes have recently been investigated as suitable substitutes for the shortcomings of nanoparticles due to their biological compatibility and particularly small size (i.e., 30-150 nm). In addition, exosomes have been found to play important roles in cell communication, acting as natural carriers of biological cargoes throughout the body. This review aims to highlight the use of exosomes as drug delivery vehicles for cancer and showcases the various attempts used to exploit exosomes with a focus on the delivery of chemotherapeutics and nucleic acids.

Abstract
In the last decades, several approaches were developed to design drug delivery systems to address the multiple biological barriers encountered after administration while safely delivering a payload. In this scenario, bio-inspired and bio-mimetic approaches have emerged as promising solutions to evade the mononuclear phagocytic system while simultaneously negotiating the sequential transport across the various biological barriers. Leukocytes freely circulate in the bloodstream and selectively target the inflamed vasculature in response to injury, infection, and cancer. Recently we have shown the use of biomimetic nanovesicles, called leukosomes, which combine both the physical and biological properties of liposomes and leukocytes, respectively, to selectively deliver drugs to the inflamed vasculature. Here we report the use of leukosomes to target and deliver doxorubicin, a model chemotherapeutic, to tumors in syngeneic murine models of breast cancer and melanoma. Exploiting the inflammatory pathway responsible for recruiting immune cells to the site of injury, leukosomes exhibited increased targeting of cancer vasculature and stroma. Furthermore, delivery of doxorubicin with leukosomes enabled significant tumor growth inhibition compared with free doxorubicin in both breast and melanoma tumors. This study demonstrates the promise of using biomimetic nanovesicles for effective cancer management in solid tumors.

Abstract
Drug carriers have been widely explored as a method of improving the efficacy of therapeutic drugs for a variety of diseases, including those involving inflammation. However, few of these formulations have advanced past clinical trials. There are still major gaps in our understanding of how drug carriers impact leukocytes, particularly in inflammatory conditions. In this work, we investigated how targeted and nontargeted drug carriers affect the function of leukocytes in blood flow. We explored three primary mechanisms: (1) collisions in blood flow disrupt leukocyte adhesion, (2) specific binding to the endothelium competes with leukocytes for binding sites, and (3) particle phagocytosis alters leukocyte phenotype, resulting in reduced adhesion. We find that each of these mechanisms contributes to significantly reduced leukocyte adhesion to an inflamed endothelium, and that particle phagocytosis may be the most significant driver of this effect. These results are crucial for understanding the totality of the impact of drug carriers on leukocyte behavior and response to inflammation and should inform the future design of any such drug carriers.

Abstract
Successful cancer therapy requires drugs being precisely delivered to tumors. Nanosized drugs have attracted considerable recent attention, but their toxicity and high immunogenicity are important obstacles hampering their clinical translation. Here we report a novel “cocktail therapy” strategy based on excess natural killer cell-derived exosomes (NKEXOs) in combination with their biomimetic core–shell nanoparticles (NNs) for tumor-targeted therapy. The NNs were self- assembled with a dendrimer core loading therapeutic miRNA and a hydrophilic NKEXOs shell. Their successful fabrication was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). The resulting NN/NKEXO cocktail showed highly efficient targeting and therapeutic miRNA delivery to neuroblastoma cells in vivo, as demonstrated by two-photon excited scanning fluorescence imaging (TPEFI) and with an IVIS Spectrum in vivo imaging system (IVIS), leading to dual inhibition of tumor growth. With unique biocompatibility, we propose this NN/NKEXO cocktail as a new avenue for tumor therapy, with potential prospects for clinical applications.

Abstract
Local treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) has been pointed out to be a novel therapeutic approach with several advantages when compared to conventional therapies. However, the development of systems able to fulfil the requirements of this administration route is not an easy task. The present work suggests the utilization of Artificial Intelligence Tools (AIT) as an instrument to understand polymer-polymer interactions towards obtaining thermosensitive hydrogels suitable for protein rectal administration in IBD. Enemas composed by Pluronic® F127 and F68 and Methocel® K4M were developed and characterised. Two experimental designs were carried out in order to determine the effect of each polymer on their texturometric and rheological behaviour. Using the results of the first experimental design we can justify the inclusion of each raw material PF127, PF68 and MK4M in the formulation and conclude that a compromise solution is necessary to obtain thermosensitive hydrogels of the required properties. The results of the second experimental design allowed concluding that PF127 ruled mainly syringeability and bioadhesion work. On the other hand, PF68 modulated principally gelation temperature, viscosity and protein release from hydrogel matrix. Finally, MK4M influenced bioadhesiveness and mostly determined viscosity. AIT also allowed delimiting the design space to produce easy administrable and highly bioadhesive enemas that undergo fast sol-gel transitions at body temperature.

Abstract
Inflammation is ubiquitous in the body, triggering desirable immune response to defend against dangerous signals or instigating undesirable damage to cells and tissues to cause disease. Nanomedicine holds exciting potential in modulating inflammation. In particular, cell membranes derived from cells involved in the inflammatory process may be used to coat nanotherapeutics for effective targeted delivery to inflammatory tissues. Herein, the recent progress of rationally engineering cell membrane-based nanotherapeutics for inflammation therapy is highlighted, and the challenges and opportunities presented in realizing the full potential of cell-membrane coating in targeting and manipulating the inflammatory microenvironment are discussed.

Abstract
Incapability of effective cross-talk with biological environments has partly impaired the in vivo functionality of nanoparticles (NPs). Homing, biodistribution, and function of NPs could be engineered through regulating their interactions with in vivo niches. Inspired by communications in biological systems, endowing a "biological identity" to synthetic NPs is one approach to control their biodistribution, and immunonegotiation profiles. This synthetic-biological combination is referred to as biohybrid NPs, which comprise both i) engineerable, readily producible, and trackable synthetic NPs as well as ii) biological moieties with the capability to cross-talk with immunological barriers. Here, the latest understanding on the in vivo interactions of NPs, biological barriers they face, and emerging methods for quantitative measurements of NPs' biodistribution are reviewed. Some key biomolecules that have emerged as negotiators with the immune system in the context of cancer and autoimmunity, and their inspirations on biohybrid NPs are introduced. Critical design considerations for efficient cross-talk between NPs and innate and adaptive immunity followed by hybridization methods are also discussed. Finally, clinical translation challenges and future perspectives regarding biohybrid NPs are discussed.

Abstract
Systemic delivery of exosomes meets hurdles which had not been elucidated using live molecular imaging for their biodistribution. Production and uptake of endogenous exosomes are expected to be nonspecific and specific, respectively, where external stimuli of production of exosomes and their quantitative degree of productions are not understood. Despite this lack of understanding of basic physiology of in vivo behavior of exosomes including their possible paracrine or endocrine actions, many engineering efforts are taken to develop therapeutic vehicles. Especially, the fraction of exosomes’ taking the routes of waste disposal and exerting target actions are not characterized after systemic administration. Here, we reviewed the literature about in vivo distribution and disposal/excretion of exogenous or endogenous exosomes and, from these limited resources of knowledge currently available, summarized the knowledge and the uncertainties of exosomes on physiologic standpoints. An eloquent example of the investigations to understand the roles and confounders of exosomes’ action in the brain was highlighted with emphasis on the recent discovery of brain lymphatics and hypothesis of glymphatic/lymphatic clearance pathways in diseases as well as in physiologic processes. The possibility of delivering therapeutic exosomes through the systemic circulation, across blood-brain barriers and finally to target cells such as microglia, astrocytes and/or neurons is a good testbed in which the investigators can formulate problems to solve for both understanding (science) and application (engineering).

Abstract
Despite numerous advances in medical treatment, sepsis remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Sepsis is characterized by the involvement of all organs and tissues as a consequence of blood poisoning, resulting in organ failure and eventually death. Effective treatment remains an unmet need and novel approaches are urgently needed. The growing evidence of clinical and biological heterogeneity of sepsis suggests precision medicine as a possible key for achieving therapeutic breakthroughs. In this scenario, biomimetic nanomedicine represents a promising avenue for the treatment of inflammatory diseases, including sepsis. We investigated the role of macrophage-derived biomimetic nanoparticles, namely leukosomes, in a lipopolysaccharide-induced murine model of sepsis. We observed that treatment with leukosomes was associated with significantly prolonged survival. In vitro studies elucidated the potential mechanism of action of these biomimetic vesicles. The direct treatment of endothelial cells (ECs) with leukosomes did not alter the gene expression profile of EC-associated cell adhesion molecules. In contrast, the interaction of leukosomes with macrophages induced a decrease of pro-inflammatory genes (IL-6, IL-1b, and TNF-α), an increase of anti-inflammatory ones (IL-10 and TGF-β), and indirectly an anti-inflammatory response on ECs. Taken together, these results showed the ability of leukosomes to regulate the inflammatory response in target cells, acting as a bioactive nanotherapeutic.

Abstract
Nanoparticles have seen considerable popularity as effective tools for drug delivery. However, non-specific targeting continues to remain a challenge. Recently, biomimetic nanoparticles have emerged as an innovative solution that exploits biologically-derived components to improve therapeutic potential. Specifically, cell membrane proteins extracted from various cells (i.e., leukocytes, erythrocytes, platelets, mesenchymal stem cells, cancer) have shown considerable promise in bestowing nanoparticles with increased circulation and targeting efficacy. Traditional nanoparticles can be detected and removed by the immune system which significantly hinders their clinical success. Biomimicry has been proposed as a promising approach to overcome these limitations. In this review, we highlight the current trends in biomimetic nanoparticles and describe how they are being used to increase their chemotherapeutic effect in cancer treatment.
