Abstract
AIM Atorvastatin (ATO) loaded chitosan-based polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles (PECN) incorporated transdermal patch was developed to enhance its skin permeability and bioavailability. METHODOLOGY The ATO loaded PECN were prepared by ionic gelation method and optimized by Box-Behnken design. The optimized batches were evaluated for physicochemical characteristics, in vitro, ex vivo, cell line and stability studies. The optimized ATO-PECN were incorporated into transdermal patches by solvent evaporation method and evaluated for their physicochemical properties, ex vivo skin permeation, in vivo pharmacokinetics and stability study. RESULTS The optimized batch of ATO-PECN had average size of 219.2 ± 5.98 nm with 82.68 ± 2.63 % entrapment and 25.41 ± 3.29 mV zeta potential. ATO-PECN showed sustained drug release and higher skin permeation. The cell line study showed that ATO-PECN increased the cell permeability of ATO as compared to ATO suspension. ATO-PECN loaded transdermal patch showed higher skin permeation. The in vivo pharmacokinetic study revealed that the ATO-PECN transdermal patch showed significant (p < 0.05) increase in pharmacokinetic parameters as compared to marketed oral tablet, confirming enhancement in bioavailability of ATO. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present work concluded that the ATO-PECN loaded transdermal patch is a promising novel drug delivery system for poorly bioavailable drugs.

Abstract
Fracture healing is a complex interplay of molecular and cellular mechanisms lasting from days to weeks. The inflammatory phase is the first stage of fracture healing and is critical in setting the stage for successful healing. There has been growing interest in exploring the role of the immune system and novel therapeutic strategies, such as nanoparticle drug delivery systems in enhancing fracture healing. Advancements in nanotechnology have revolutionized drug delivery systems to the extent that they can modulate immune response during fracture healing by leveraging unique physiochemical properties. Therefore, understanding the intricate interactions between nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems and the immune response, specifically macrophages, is essential for therapeutic efficacy. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the relationship between the immune system and nanoparticles during fracture healing. Specifically, we highlight the influence of nanoparticle characteristics, such as size, surface properties, and composition, on macrophage activation, polarization, and subsequent immune responses. IMPACT STATEMENT: This review provides valuable insights into the interplay between fracture healing, the immune system, and nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems. Understanding nanoparticle-macrophage interactions can advance the development of innovative therapeutic approaches to enhance fracture healing, improve patient outcomes, and pave the way for advancements in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Arsenic trioxide (ATO) targets PML/RARα and leads to miraculous success in treating acute promyelocytic leukemia. Notably, ATO also targets p53, the most frequently mutated protein in cancers, through a similar binding mechanism. However, p53-targeting ATO trials are challenging due to the poor cellular uptake and cancer selectivity of ATO. Here, we analyzed the structure-activity relationship of arsenicals and rationally developed a novel arsenical (designated AcGlcAs) by conjugating arsenic to sulfur atoms and tetraacetyl-β-d-thioglucose. AcGlcAs exhibited remarkable cellular uptake through a thiol-mediated pathway (maximally 127-fold higher than ATO), thereby potently targeting PML/RARα and mutant p53. Among the 55 tested cell lines, AcGlcAs preferentially killed cancer lines rather than normal lines. In preclinical studies, AcGlcAs significantly extended the survival of mice bearing a xenograft tumor with p53 mutation while showing high plasma stability and oral bioavailability. Thus, AcGlcAs is a potential clinical candidate for precisely treating numerous p53-mutated cancers.

Abstract
With the advent of the aging society, osteoporosis (OP) risk increases yearly. Currently, the clinical usage of anti-OP drugs is challenged by recurrent side effects and poor patient compliance, regardless of oral, intravenous, or subcutaneous administration. Properly using a drug delivery system or formulation strategy can achieve targeted drug delivery to the bone, diminish side effects, improve bioavailability, and prolong the in vivo residence time, thus effectively curing osteoporosis. This review expounds on the pathogenesis of OP and the clinical medicaments used for OP intervention, proposes the design approach for anti-OP drug delivery, emphatically discusses emerging novel anti-OP drug delivery systems, and enumerates anti-OP preparations under clinical investigation. Our findings may contribute to engineering anti-OP drug delivery and OP-targeting therapy.

Abstract
Background: Since the poor response to existing anti-tuberculosis drugs and low drug concentration in local bone tissues, the traditional drug therapy does not result in satisfactory treatment of osteoarticular tuberculosis. Thus, we report a rifapentine release system with imparted bone targeting potential using tetracycline (TC) -modified nanoparticles (NPs). Methods: TC was conjugated to PLGA-PEG copolymer via a DCC/NHS technique. Rifapentine-loaded NPs were prepared by premix membrane emulsification technique. The resulting NPs were characterized in terms of physicochemical characterization, hemolytic study, cytotoxicity, bone mineral binding ability, in vitro drug release, stability test and antitubercular activity. The pharmacokinetic and biodistribution studies were also performed in mice. Results: Rifapentine loaded TC-PLGA-PEG NPs were proved to be 48.8 nm in size with encapsulation efficiency and drug loading of 83.3% ± 5.5% and 8.1% ± 0.4%, respectively. The release of rifapentine from NPs could be maintained for more than 60 h. Most (68.0%) TC-PLGA-PEG NPs could bind to HAp powder in vitro. The cellular studies revealed that NPs were safe for intravenous administration. In vivo evaluations also revealed that the drug concentration of bone tissue in TC-PLGA-PEG group was significantly higher than that in other groups at all time (p < 0.05). Both NPs could improve pharmacokinetic parameters without evident organ toxicity. The minimal inhibitory concentration of NPs was 0.094 μg/mL, whereas this of free rifapentine was 0.25 μg/mL. Conclusion: Rifapentine loaded TC-PLGA-PEG NPs could increase the amount of rifapentine in bone tissue, prolong drug release in systemic circulation, enhance anti-tuberculosis activity, and thereby reducing dose and frequency of drug therapy for osteoarticular tuberculosis.

Abstract
Aim: We aimed to create a nano drug delivery system with tetracycline (TC)-grafted methoxy poly-(ethylene-glycol)‒poly-(D, L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (mPEG‒PLGA) micelles (TC‒mPEG‒PLGA) with TC and mPEG‒PLGA for potential bone targeting. Prospectively, TC‒mPEG‒PLGA aims to deliver bioactive compounds, such as astragaloside IV (AS), for osteoporotic therapy. Methods: Preparation and evaluation of TC‒mPEG‒PLGA were accomplished via nano-properties, cytotoxicity, uptake by MC3T3-E1 cells, ability of hydroxyapatite targeting and potential bone targeting in vivo, as well as pharmacodynamics in a rat model. Results: The measured particle size of AS-loaded TC‒mPEG‒PLGA micelles was an average of 52.16 ± 2.44 nm, which exhibited a sustained release effect compared to that by free AS. The TC‒mPEG‒PLGA demonstrated low cytotoxicity and was easily taken by MC3T3-E1 cells. Through assaying of bone targeting in vitro and in vivo, we observed that TC‒mPEG‒PLGA could effectively increase AS accumulation in bone. A pharmacodynamics study in mice suggested potentially increased bone mineral density by AS-loaded TC‒mPEG‒PLGA in ovariectomized rats compared to that by free AS. Conclusion: The nano drug delivery system (TC‒mPEG‒PLGA) could target bone in vitro and in vivo, wherein it may be used as a novel delivery method for the enhancement of therapeutic effects of drugs with osteoporotic activity.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is characterised by a major public health burden, particularly taking into account the ageing global population. Therapeutic modalities for osteoporosis are categorised on the basis of their effect on bone remodeling: antiresorptive agents and anabolic agents. Anabolic drugs are favoured as they promote the formation of new bone, whereas antiresorptive drugs terminate the further deterioration of bone. Non-specific delivery of anabolic agents results in prolonged kidney exposure causing malignant hypercalcemia, whereas antiresorptive agents and bisphosphonates may produce osteonecrosis of the jaw. Several clinical trials have been reported for combinational therapy of anabolic agents and antiresorptive agents for osteoporosis. However, none of them have proven their cumulative effectiveness in the treatment of disease. The present work emphasizes on dual-targeting drug delivery approach comprising of bone anabolic and antiresorptive agents that would deliver the therapeutic agents to both the zones of bone simultaneously. The anticipated pioneering delivery approach will intensify the explicit interaction between the therapeutic agent and bone surfaces separately without developing severe adverse effects and improve the osteoporotic therapy effectively compared to non-targeted drug delivery.

Abstract
Targeted delivery by either systemic or local targeting of therapeutics to the bone is an attractive treatment for various bone metabolism diseases such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteosarcoma, osteomyelitis, etc. To overcome the limitations of direct drug delivery, the combination of bone-targeted agents with nanotechnology has the opportunity to provide a more effective therapeutic approach, where engineered nanoparticles cause the drug to accumulate in the bone, thereby improving efficacy and minimizing side effects. Here, we summarize the current advances in systemic or local bone-targeting approaches and nanosystem applications in bone diseases, which may provide new insights into nanocarrier-delivered drugs for the targeted treatment of bone diseases. We envision that novel drug delivery carriers developed based on nanotechnology will be a potential vehicle for the treatment of currently incurable bone diseases and are expected to be translated into clinical applications.

Abstract
Owing to the limitations of traditional systemic drug delivery in the treatment of bone diseases with side effects on normal cells, the selection of materials with high affinities for bones, as targeting ligands to modify drug carriers, has become an important research topic. Tetracyclines (TCs) have an adsorption effect on hydroxyapatite (HAp). Thus, they can be used as bone-targeting ligands and combined with drug carriers. In this study, density functional theory is used to analyze the interaction mechanism of TC, oxytetracycline (OTC), chlortetracycline, and HAp. We calculate the electrostatic potential (ESP) and molecular orbitals to predict the possible binding sites of TCs on the HAp surface. The adsorption energy is used to compare the affinities of the three TCs to HAp. An independent gradient model analysis is performed to study the weak interaction between TCs and HAp. The coordination bond between TCs and the HAp surface is evaluated by conducting a charge density difference analysis. The results show that OTC has the highest affinity to HAp because the introduction of hydroxyl groups change the adsorption configuration of OTC. Thus, OTC adsorbed on HAp in a broken-line shape exposes more binding sites. This study provides a theoretical basis for TCs as bone-targeting ligands in treating bone diseases and in improving the safety of treatment by selecting different bone-targeting ligands.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is considered as a critical limiting factor for the successful chemotherapy, which is mainly characterized by the overexpression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCB1 or ABCG2. In this study, folate-targeted polymeric micellar carrier was successfully constructed to co-delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) and SIS3 (FA/DOX/SIS3 micelles), a specific Smad3 inhibitor which sensitizes ABCB1- and ABCG2-overexpressing cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents. The ratio of DOX to SIS3 in polymeric micelles was determined based on the anti-tumor activity against resistant breast cells. In addition, FA/DOX/SIS3 micelles exhibited a much longer circulation time in blood and were preferentially accumulated in resistant tumor tissue. Pharmacodynamic studies showed that FA/DOX/SIS3 micelles possessed superior anti-tumor activity than other DOX-based treatments. Overall, FA/DOX/SIS3 micelles are a promising formulation for the synergistic treatment of drug-resistant tumor.

Abstract
Bone defects of critical size after compound fractures, infections, or tumor resections are a challenge in treatment. Particularly, this applies to bone defects in patients with impaired bone healing due to frequently occurring metabolic diseases (above all diabetes mellitus and osteoporosis), chronic inflammation, and cancer. Adjuvant therapeutic agents such as recombinant growth factors, lipid mediators, antibiotics, antiphlogistics, and proangiogenics as well as other promising anti-resorptive and anabolic molecules contribute to improving bone healing in these disorders, especially when they are released in a targeted and controlled manner during crucial bone healing phases. In this regard, the development of smart biocompatible and biostable polymers such as implant coatings, scaffolds, or particle-based materials for drug release is crucial. Innovative chemical, physico- and biochemical approaches for controlled tailor-made degradation or the stimulus-responsive release of substances from these materials, and more, are advantageous. In this review, we discuss current developments, progress, but also pitfalls and setbacks of such approaches in supporting or controlling bone healing. The focus is on the critical evaluation of recent preclinical studies investigating different carrier systems, dual- or co-delivery systems as well as triggered- or targeted delivery systems for release of a panoply of drugs.

Preventive effects of "ovalbumin-conjugated celastrol-loaded nanomicelles'' in a mouse model of ovalbumin-induced allergic airway inflammation. Eur J Pharm Sci 2019; 143:105172. [PMID: 31841695 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2019.105172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2019] [Revised: 11/15/2019] [Accepted: 12/01/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Allergies affect a significant proportion of the world's population, and existing vaccination strategies to restrict their adverse pathologies often render side-effects. The aim of this study was to design a new vaccine for allergen-specific immunotherapy (SIT), and to investigate its preventive effects during allergic inflammation. We constructed ovalbumin (OVA)-conjugated celastrol-loaded nanomicelles (OVA-NMs-celastrol), wherein celastrol (a bioactive anti-inflammatory compound) was loaded into carboxyl-functioned polymeric nanomicelles using a thin-film hydration method. OVA was used as a model allergen and conjugated on nanomicelles. The OVA-NMs-celastrol obtained were characterized based on particle size, morphology, drug encapsulation efficiency, and drug loading percentage. Further, the preventive effect of OVA-NMs-celastrol was evaluated in a mouse model of allergic asthma. Our results showed that OVA-NMs-celastrol possessed valuable characteristics such as small particle size (50.72 ± 0.98 nm) and spherical-like shape, with celastrol encapsulation efficiency of 99.89 ± 0.85% and a drug loading percentage of 4.76 ± 0.03%. Further, in vivo results showed that treatment with OVA-NMs-celastrol could decrease OVA specific IgE and histamine levels, Th2 cytokine (IL-4, IL-5) levels, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the lung tissues. Moreover, it could enhance the OVA specific IgG1 and IgG2a levels and decrease the IgE / IgG2a ratio. These results demonstrate the successful construction of OVA-NMs-celastrol as a potential vaccine candidate for use in SIT for allergic inflammation.
