Abstract
Oxygen is necessary for life and plays a key pivotal in maintaining normal physiological functions and treat of diseases. Hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) have been studied and developed as a replacement for red blood cells (RBCs) in oxygen transport due to their similar oxygen-carrying capacities. However, applications of HBOCs are hindered by vasoactivity, oxidative toxicity, and a relatively short circulatory half-life. With advancements in nanotechnology, Hb encapsulation, absorption, bioconjugation, entrapment, and attachment to nanomaterials have been used to prepare nanomaterial-related HBOCs to address these challenges and pend their application in several biomedical and therapeutic contexts. This review focuses on the progress of this class of nanomaterial-related HBOCs in the fields of hemorrhagic shock, ischemic stroke, cancer, and wound healing, and speculates on future research directions. The advancements in nanomaterial-related HBOCs are expected to lead significant breakthroughs in blood substitutes, enabling their widespread use in the treatment of clinical diseases.

Development of novel polymer haemoglobin based particles as an antioxidant, antibacterial and an oxygen carrier agents. Sci Rep 2024; 14:3031. [PMID: 38321082 PMCID: PMC10847508 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-53548-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
This innovative work aims to develop highly biocompatible and degradable nanoparticles by encapsulating haemoglobin (Hb) within poly-ε-caprolactone for novel biomedical applications. We used a modified double emulsion solvent evaporation method to fabricate the particles. A Scanning electron microscope (SEM) characterized them for surface morphology. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopies (UV-visible) elucidated preserved chemical and biological structure of encapsulated haemoglobin. The airproof equilibrium apparatus obtained the oxygen-carrying capacity and P50 values. The DPPH assay assessed free radical scavenging potential. The antibacterial properties were observed using four different bacterial strains by disk diffusion method. The MTT assay investigates the cytotoxic effects on mouse fibroblast cultured cell lines (L-929). The MTT assay showed that nanoparticles have no toxicity over large concentrations. The well-preserved structure of Hb within particles, no toxicity, high oxygen affinity, P50 value, and IC50 values open the area of new research, which may be used as artificial oxygen carriers, antioxidant, and antibacterial agents, potential therapeutic agents as well as drug carrier particles to treat the cancerous cells. The novelty of this work is the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of developed nanoparticles are not been reported yet. Results showed that the prepared particles have strong antioxidant and antibacterial potential.

Shen H, Zhang C, Wang C, Jiang J, Tang F, Li C, Yuan H, Yang X, Tong Z, Huang Y. Lutein-Based pH and Photo Dual-Responsive Novel Liposomes Coated with Ce6 and PTX for Tumor Therapy. ACS OMEGA 2023; 8:31436-31449. [PMID: 37663483 PMCID: PMC10468958 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c04228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
Liposomes are considered the best nanocarrier for delivering cancer drugs such as chlorin e6 (Ce6) and paclitaxel (PTX). However, the poor stability and non-selectivity release of liposomes may severely limit their further applications. In this study, based on the characteristics of lutein (L) photo-response and orthoester (OE) acid-response, stable and dual-responsive liposomes (Dr-lips) have been prepared. The Dr-lips exhibited a spherical shape with a uniform size of approximately 58.27 nm. Moreover, they displayed a zeta potential ranging from -45.45 to -28.25 mV and showed excellent storage stability, indicating stable colloidal properties. Additionally, they achieved high drug encapsulation rates, with 92.27% for PTX and 90.34% for Ce6, respectively. Meanwhile, under near-infrared (NIR) light at 660 nm, Ce6 plays a key role in accelerating the photodegradation rate of lutein and PEG-OE-L while also enhancing tissue penetration ability. Additionally, Dr-lips loaded with Ce6 and PTX not only displayed excellent pH and photo dual-responsiveness for targeted delivering and releasing but also showed remarkable reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation capacity and impressive anti-tumor activity in vitro. Therefore, it provides a novel strategy for optimizing stability and enhancing their targeted drug delivery of liposome.
