Opsonization Inveigles Macrophages Engulfing Carrier-Free Bilirubin/JPH203 Nanoparticles to Suppress Inflammation for Osteoarthritis Therapy.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by cartilage destruction, synovitis, and osteophyte formation. Disease-modifying treatments for OA are currently lacking. Because inflammation mediated by an imbalance of M1/M2 macrophages in the synovial cavities contributes to OA progression, regulating the M1 to M2 polarization of macrophages can be a potential therapeutic strategy. Basing on the inherent immune mechanism and pathological environment of OA, an immunoglobulin G-conjugated bilirubin/JPH203 self-assembled nanoparticle (IgG/BRJ) is developed, and its therapeutic potential for OA is evaluated. After intra-articular administration, IgG conjugation facilitates the recognition and engulfment of nanoparticles by the M1 macrophages. The internalized nanoparticles disassemble in response to the increased oxidative stress, and the released bilirubin (BR) and JPH203 scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS), inhibit the nuclear factor kappa-B pathway, and suppress the activated mammalian target of rapamycin pathway, result in the repolarization of macrophages and enhance M2/M1 ratios. Suppression of the inflammatory environment by IgG/BRJ promotes cartilage protection and repair in an OA rat model, thereby improving therapeutic outcomes. This strategy of opsonization involving M1 macrophages to engulf carrier-free BR/JPH203 nanoparticles to suppress inflammation for OA therapy holds great potential for OA intervention and treatment.

Abstract
Cell-mediated nanoparticle delivery systems (CMNDDs) utilize cells as carriers to deliver the drug-loaded nanoparticles. Unlike the traditional nanoparticle drug delivery approaches, CMNDDs take the advantages of cell characteristics, such as the homing capabilities of stem cells, inflammatory chemotaxis of neutrophils, prolonged blood circulation of red blood cells, and internalization of macrophages. Subsequently, CMNDDs can easily prolong the blood circulation, cross biological barriers, such as the blood-brain barrier and the bone marrow-blood barrier, and rapidly arrive at the diseased areas. Such advantageous properties make CMNDDs promising delivery candidates for precision targeting. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in CMNDDs fabrication and biomedical applications. Specifically, ligand-receptor interactions, non-covalent interactions, covalent interactions, and internalization are commonly applied in constructing CMNDDs in vitro. By hitchhiking cells, such as macrophages, red blood cells, monocytes, neutrophils, and platelets, nanoparticles can be internalized or attached to cells to construct CMNDDs in vivo. Then we highlight the recent application of CMNDDs in treating different diseases, such as cancer, central nervous system disorders, lung diseases, and cardiovascular diseases, with a brief discussion about challenges and future perspectives in the end.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are commonly used in tumor targeting therapy. However, the rapid analysis of TKIs remains a significant challenge, especially in complex biological fluid environments. In this work, we have constructed a supramolecular fluorescence sensor array based on a cucurbituril-dye host-guest complex. The binding affinity between the three complexes and each TKI is different, resulting in different cross-response signals of the complexes to the fluorescence of each TKI. Combined with linear discriminant analysis(LDA), five kinds of TKIs can be well identified. The supramolecular fluorescence sensor array could accurately identify and distinguish the five TKIs in water and could classify mixtures containing different concentrations of TKIs in serum. The concentration and Factor 1 exhibited a good linear relationship and the detection limit (LOD) was as low as 10-7 mol L-1. The method has good reproducibility and stability. In addition, the differentiation of four clinical concentrations of first-generation TKIs further validated the potential application of arrays in drug monitoring. Finally, our proposed array enabled drug imaging in living cells. Our array platform provided the foundation for the rapid and easy monitoring of 4-anilinoquinazoline TKIs.

Abstract
Cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n]) macrocycles (especially CB[5] to CB[8]) have shown exceptional attributes since their discovery in 2000. Their stability, water solubility, responsiveness to several stimuli, and remarkable binding properties have enabled a growing number of biological applications. Yet, soon after their discovery, the challenge of their functionalization was set. Nevertheless, after more than two decades, a myriad of CB[n] derivatives has been described, many of them used in cells or in vivo for advanced applications. This perspective summarizes key advances of this burgeoning field and points to the next opportunities and remaining challenges to fully express the potential of these fascinating macrocycles in biology and biomedical sciences.

Abstract
Intelligent control of the immune response is essential for obtaining percutaneous implants with good sterilization and tissue repair abilities. In this study, polypyrrole (Ppy) nanoparticles enveloping a 3D frame of sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SP) surface are constructed, which enhance the surface modulus and hardness of the sulfonated layer by forming a cooperative structure of simulated reinforced concrete and exhibit a superior photothermal effect. Ppy-coated SP could quickly accumulate heat on the surface by responding to 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) light, thereby killing bacteria, and destroying biofilms. Under NIR stimulation, the phagocytosis and M1 activation of macrophages cultured on Ppy-coated SP are enhanced by activating complement 3 and its receptor, CD11b. Phagocytosis and M1 activation are impaired along with abolishment of NIR stimulation in the Ppy-coated SP group, which is favorable for tissue repair. Ppy-coated SP promotes Collagen-I, vascular endothelial growth factor, connective tissue growth factor, and α-actin (Acta2) expression by inducing M2 polarization owing to its higher surface modulus. Overall, Ppy-coated SP with enhanced mechanical properties could be a good candidate for clinical percutaneous implants through on-off phagocytosis and switchable macrophage activation stimulated with NIR.

Abstract
The clinical translation of nanomedicines has been strongly hampered by the limitations of delivery vehicles, promoting scientists to search for novel nanocarriers. Although cell membrane-based delivery systems have attracted extensive attention, further functionalizations are urgently desired to augment their theranostic functions. We propose a cell-friendly supramolecular strategy to engineer cell membranes utilizing cyclodextrin-based host-guest molecular recognitions to fix the defects arising from chemical and genetic modifications. In this study, the supramolecular cell membrane vesicles (SCMVs) specifically accumulate in tumors, benefiting from tumor-homing capability and the enhanced permeability and retention effect. SCMVs co-delivering indocyanine green and an indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase inhibitor effectively ablate tumors combining photodynamic therapy and immunotherapy. Driven by host-guest inclusion complexation, SCMVs successfully encapsulate resiquimod to repolarize tumor-associated macrophages into M1 phenotype, synergizing with immune checkpoint blockade therapy. This supramolecular engineering methodology based on noncovalent interactions presents a generalizable and cell-friendly tactic to develop living cell-originated nanomaterials for precise cancer therapy.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance has posed a great threat to human health. The emergence of antibiotic resistance has always outpaced the development of new antibiotics, and the investment in the development of new antibiotics is diminishing. Supramolecular self-assembly of the conventional antibacterial agents has been proved to be a promising and versatile strategy to tackle the serious problem of antibiotic resistance. In this review, the recent development of antibacterial agents based on supramolecular self-assembly strategies will be introduced.

Abstract
Nowadays, destruction of redox homeostasis to induce cancer cell death is an emerging anti-cancer strategy. Here, the authors utilized pH-sensitive acetalated β-cyclodextrin (Ac-β-CD) to efficiently deliver dihydroartemisinin (DHA) for tumor ferroptosis therapy and chemodynamic therapy in a synergistic manner. The Ac-β-CD-DHA based nanoparticles are coated by an iron-containing polyphenol network. In response to the tumor microenvironment, Fe2+ /Fe3+ can consume glutathione (GSH) and trigger the Fenton reaction in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ), leading to the generation of lethal reactive oxygen species (ROS). Meanwhile, the OO bridge bonds of DHA are also disintegrated to enable ferroptosis of cancer cells. Their results demonstrate that these nanoparticles acted as a ROS generator to break the redox balance of cancer cells, showing an effective anticancer efficacy, which is different from traditional approaches.

[PMID: 35167829 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2022.113064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2021] [Revised: 02/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/11/2022] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
Angiogenesis is essential for successful bone defect repair. In normal tissue repair, the physiological inflammatory response is the main regulator of angiogenesis through the activity of macrophages and the cytokines secreted by them. In particular, M2 macrophages which secrete high levels of PDGF-BB are typically considered to promote angiogenesis. A hexapeptide [WKYMVm, (Trp-Lys-Tyr-Met-Val-D-Met-NH2)] has been reported to modulate inflammatory activities. However, the underlying mechanisms by which WKYMVm regulates macrophages remain unclear. In this study, the possible involvement by which WKYMVm induces the polarization of macrophages and affects their behaviors was evaluated. In vitro results showed that macrophages were induced to an M2 rather than M1 phenotype and the M2 phenotype was enhanced by WKYMVm through activation of the JAK1/STAT6 signaling pathway. It was also found that WKYMVm played an important role in the PDGF-BB production increase and proangiogenic abilities in M2 macrophages. Consistent with the results in vitro, the elevated M2/M0 ratio induced by WKYMVm enhanced the formation of new blood vessels in a femoral defect mouse model. These findings suggest that WKYMVm could be a promising alternative strategy for angiogenesis in bone repair by inducing M2 macrophage polarization.
