Yang S, Lin HS, Zhang L, Chi-Lui Ho P. Formulating 10-hydroxycamptothecin into nanoemulsion with functional excipient tributyrin: An innovative strategy for targeted hepatic cancer chemotherapy. Int J Pharm 2024; 654:123945. [PMID: 38403088 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.123945] [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: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to develop an innovative dosage form for 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT), a chemotherapeutic agent with limited aqueous solubility and stability, to enhance its parenteral delivery and targeting to hepatic cancer. We formulated HCPT into a nanoemulsion using tributyrin, a dietary component with histone deacetylase inhibitor activity. The resulting HCPT-loaded tributyrin nanoemulsion (Tri-HCPT-E) underwent extensive evaluations. Tri-HCPT-E significantly improved the aqueous solubility, stability, and anti-cancer activities in HepG2 cells. Pharmacokinetic studies confirmed the increased stability and hepatic targeting, with Tri-HCPT-E leading to a 120-fold increase in plasma exposure of intact HCPT and a 10-fold increase in hepatic exposure compared to the commercial free solution. Co-administration of 17α-ethynylestradiol, an up-regulator of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor, further enhanced the distribution and metabolism of HCPT, demonstrating an association between the LDL receptor pathway and hepatic targeting. Most importantly, Tri-HCPT-E exhibited superior in vivo anti-cancer efficacy in a mouse xenograft model compared to the commercial formulation, without causing escalated hepatic or renal toxicity. In conclusion, formulating HCPT into a nanoemulsion with tributyrin has proven to be an innovative and effective strategy for targeted hepatic cancer chemotherapy while tributyrin, a pharmacologically active dietary component, has emerged as a promising functional excipient for drug delivery.

Targeted pH- and redox-responsive AuS/micelles with low CMC for highly efficient sonodynamic therapy of metastatic breast cancer. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2024; 158:213771. [PMID: 38271801 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2024.213771] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
The efficacy of injectable micellar carriers is hindered due to the disassembly of micelles into free surfactants in the body, resulting in their dilution below the critical micelle concentration (CMC). Copolymer micelles were developed to address this issue, containing a superhydrophilic zwitterionic block and a superhydrophobic block with a disulfide bond, which exhibited a CMC lower than conventional micellar carriers. Cleavable copolymers composed of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) zwitterion and polycaprolactone CHLZW as the shell, with gold nanoparticles as their core, were studied to deliver doxorubicin to tumor cells while reducing the side effect of the free cytotoxic agent. The research focused on the impact of gold nanoparticles present in targeted TMT-micelles core on stability and in vivo bioavailability and sonotoxicity of the nanoparticles, as well as their synergistic effect on targeted chemotherapy. The nanomicelles prepared in this study demonstrated excellent biocompatibility and responsiveness to stimuli. PCL-SS-MPC nanomicelles displayed drug release in response to GSH and pH, resulting in high DOX release at GSH 10 mM and pH 5. Our findings, supported by MTT, flow cytometry, and confocal laser scanning microscopy, demonstrated that AuS-PM-TMTM-DOX micelles effectively induced apoptosis and enhanced cellular uptake in MCF7 and MDA-MB231 cell lines. The cytotoxic effects of AuS-PM-DOX/US on cancer cells were approximately 38 % higher compared to AuS-PM-DOX samples at a concentration of IC50 0.68 nM. This increase in cellular toxicity was primarily attributed to the promotion of apoptosis. The introduction of disulfide linkages in AuSNPs resulted in increased ROS production when exposed to ultrasound stimulation, due to a reduction in GSH levels. Compared to other commercially available nanosensitizers such as titanium dioxide, exposure of AuS-PM to ultrasound radiation (1.0 W/cm, 2 min) significantly enhanced cavitation effects and resulted in 3 to 5 times higher ROS production. Furthermore, laboratory experiments using human breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231, MCF7) demonstrated that the toxicity of AuS-PM in response to ultrasound waves is dose-dependent. The findings of this study suggest that this formulated nanocarrier holds great potential as a viable treatment option for breast cancer. It can induce apoptosis in cancer cells, reduce tumor size, and display notable therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Visible light responsive micellar drug delivery formulations are of notable interest for the treatment of ocular diseases, as their successful development would enable controlled drug release at the back of the eye, improving efficacy and reducing side-effects when compared to existing approaches. In this work, an aliphatic polycarbonate-based visible light responsive micelle formulation based on mPEG-b-poly(5-hydroxy-trimethylene carbonate) (PHTMC) was prepared wherein the pendant hydroxyl groups of the PHTMC repeating units were protected by blue light-labile [7-(diethylamino)coumarin-4-yl]methyl (DEACM). The photo-labile DEACM provided a photo-triggered release profile, as, upon the removal of these protecting groups by photo-irradiation, the micelles underwent structural disruption, leading to the release of the payload. The removal of DEACM also deprotected the pendant hydroxyl groups of PHTMC, leading to PHTMC backbone degradation via intramolecular cyclization.

Abstract
The increasing burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains responsible for morbidity and mortality worldwide; their effective diagnostic or treatment methods are of great interest to researchers. The use of NPs and nanocarriers in cardiology has drawn much interest. The present comprehensive review provides deep insights into the use of current and innovative approaches in CVD diagnostics to offer practical ways to utilize nanotechnological interventions and the critical elements in the CVD diagnosis, associated risk factors, and management strategies of patients with chronic CVDs. We proposed a decision tree-based solution by discussing the emerging applications of NPs for the higher number of rules to increase efficiency in treating CVDs. This review-based study explores the screening methods, tests, and toxicity to provide a unique way of creating a multi-parametric feature that includes cutting-edge techniques for identifying cardiovascular problems and their treatments. We discussed the benefits and drawbacks of various NPs in the context of cost, space, time and complexity that have been previously suggested in the literature for the diagnosis of CVDs risk factors. Also, we highlighted the advances in using NPs for targeted and improved drug delivery and discussed the evolution toward the nano-cardiovascular potential for medical science. Finally, we also examined the mixed-based diagnostic approaches crucial for treating cardiovascular disorders, broad applications and the potential future applications of nanotechnology in medical sciences.

Abstract
In recent years, various conventional formulations have been used for the treatment and/or management of ocular medical conditions. Diabetic retinopathy, a microvascular disease of the retina, remains the leading cause of visual disability in patients with diabetes. Currently, for treating diabetic retinopathy, only intraocular, intravitreal, periocular injections, and laser photocoagulation are widely used. Frequent administration of these drugs by injections may lead to serious complications, including retinal detachment and endophthalmitis. Although conventional ophthalmic formulations like eye drops, ointments, and suspensions are available globally, these formulations fail to achieve optimum drug therapeutic profile due to immediate nasolacrimal drainage, rapid tearing, and systemic tearing toxicity of the drugs. To achieve better therapeutic outcomes with prolonged release of the therapeutic agents, nano-drug delivery materials have been investigated. These nanocarriers include nanoparticles, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN), nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC), dendrimers, nanofibers, in-situ gel, vesicular carriers, niosomes, and mucoadhesive systems, among others. The nanocarriers carry the potential benefits of site-specific delivery and controlled and sustained drug release profile. In the present article, various nanomaterials explored for treating diabetic retinopathy are reviewed.

Abstract
Micelles are nanostructures developed via the spontaneous assembly of amphiphilic polymers in aqueous systems, which possess the advantages of high drug stability or active-ingredient solubilization, targeted transport, controlled release, high bioactivity, and stability. Polysaccharides have excellent water solubility, biocompatibility, and degradability, and can be modified to achieve a hydrophobic core to encapsulate hydrophobic drugs, improve drug biocompatibility, and achieve regulated delivery of the loaded drug. Micelles drug delivery systems based on polysaccharides and their derivatives show great potential in the biomedical field. This review discusses the principles of self-assembly of amphiphilic polymers and the formation of micelles; the preparation of amphiphilic polysaccharides is described in detail, and an overview of common polysaccharides and their modifications is provided. We focus on the review of strategies for encapsulating drugs in polysaccharide-derived polymer micelles (PDPMs) and building intelligent drug delivery systems. This review provides new research directions that will help promote future research and development of PDPMs in the field of drug carriers.

Abstract
Genistein (GEN), an isoflavonoid, offers multifunctional biological activities. However, its poor oral bioavailability, aqueous solubility, extensive metabolism, and short half-life restricted its clinical use. Therefore, the Phospholipon®90H complex of genistein (GPLC) was prepared to enhance its biopharmaceutical properties and anti-inflammatory activity. GPLC was characterized by employing particle size and zeta potential, Fourier transforms infrared spectrophotometry, differential scanning calorimetry, powder x-ray diffractometry, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, aqueous solubility, in vitro dissolution, ex vivo permeation, oral bioavailability and in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. The complex showed high entrapment of GEN (∼97.88% w/w) within the Phospholipon®90H matrix. Particle size and zeta potential studies confirmed the small particle size with the modest stability of GPLC. The characterization analysis supported the formation of GPLC through the participation of hydrogen bonding between GEN and Phospholipon®90H. GPLC significantly enhanced the aqueous solubility (∼2-fold) compared to GEN. Dissolution studies revealed that GPLC drastically improved the GEN dissolution rate compared to GEN. Likewise, the complex improved the permeation rate across the membrane compared to GEN. GPLC formulation significantly enhanced the oral bioavailability of GEN via improving its Cmax, tmax, AUC, half-life and mean residence time within the blood circulation compared to GEN. The GPLC (∼20 mg/kg, p.o.) remarkably inhibited the increase in paw edema up to 5 h, compared to GEN and diclofenac. Results suggest that the Phospholipon®90 complex is a superior and promising carrier for enhancing the biopharmaceutical parameters of GEN and other bioactive with similar properties.

Abstract
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, presenting a significant healthcare challenge owing to the limited efficacy of current treatments. The application of nanotechnology in cancer treatment leverages the unique optical, magnetic, and electrical attributes of nanomaterials to engineer innovative, targeted therapies. Specifically, manipulating nanomaterials allows for enhanced drug loading efficiency, improved bioavailability, and targeted delivery systems, reducing the non-specific cytotoxic effects characteristic of conventional chemotherapies. Furthermore, recent advances in nanotechnology have demonstrated encouraging results in specifically targeting CSCs, a key development considering the role of these cells in disease recurrence and resistance to treatment. Despite these breakthroughs, the clinical approval rates of nano-drugs have not kept pace with research advances, pointing to existing obstacles that must be addressed. In conclusion, nanotechnology presents a novel, powerful tool in the fight against cancer, particularly in targeting the elusive and treatment-resistant CSCs. This comprehensive review delves into the intricacies of nanotherapy, explicitly targeting cancer stem cells, their markers, and associated signaling pathways.

Abstract
Diversified nanosystems with tunable physicochemical attributes have emerged as potential solution to globally devastating cancer by offering novel possibilities for improving the techniques of cancer detection, imaging, therapies, diagnosis, drug delivery and treatment. Drug delivery systems based on nanoparticles (NPs) with ability of crossing different biological barriers are becoming increasingly popular. Besides, NPs are utilized in pharmaceutical sciences to mitigate the toxicity of conventional cancer therapeutics. However, significant NPs-associated toxicity, off-targeted activities, and low biocompatibility limit their utilization for cancer theranostics and can be hazardous to cancer patients up to life-threatening conditions. NPs interact with the biomolecules and disturb their regular function by aggregating inside cells and forming a protein corona, and the formulation turns ineffective in controlling cancer cell growth. The adverse interactions between NPs and biological entities can lead to life-threatening toxicities. This review focuses on the widespread use of various NPs including zinc oxide, titanium oxide, silver, and gold, which serve as efficient nano-vehicles and demonstrate notable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic advantages in cancer therapy. Subsequently, the mechanism of nanotoxicity attached with these NPs, alternate solutions and their prospect to revolutionize cancer theranostics are highlighted. This review will serve as guide for future developments associated with high-performance NPs with controlled toxicity for establishing them as modern-age nanotools to manage cancer in tailored manner.

Development of Gefitinib-Loaded Solid Lipid Nanoparticles for the Treatment of Breast Cancer: Physicochemical Evaluation, Stability, and Anticancer Activity in Breast Cancer (MCF-7) Cells. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:1549. [PMID: 38004415 PMCID: PMC10674849 DOI: 10.3390/ph16111549] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
In the current study, the toxic effects of gefitinib-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (GFT-loaded SLNs) upon human breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7) were investigated. GFT-loaded SLNs were prepared through a single emulsification-evaporation technique using glyceryl tristearate (Dynasan™ 114) along with lipoid® 90H (lipid surfactant) and Kolliphore® 188 (water-soluble surfactant). Four formulae were developed by varying the weight of the lipoid™ 90H (100-250 mg), and the GFT-loaded SLN (F4) formulation was optimized in terms of particle size (472 ± 7.5 nm), PDI (0.249), ZP (-15.2 ± 2.3), and EE (83.18 ± 4.7%). The optimized formulation was further subjected for in vitro release, stability studies, and MTT assay against MCF-7 cell lines. GFT from SLNs exhibited sustained release of the drug for 48 h, and release kinetics followed the Korsmeyer-Peppas model, which indicates the mechanism of drug release by swelling and/or erosion from a lipid matrix. When pure GFT and GFT-SLNs were exposed to MCF-7 cells, the activities of p53 (3.4 and 3.7 times), caspase-3 (5.61 and 7.7 times), and caspase-9 (1.48 and 1.69 times) were enhanced, respectively, over those in control cells. The results suggest that GFT-loaded SLNs (F4) may represent a promising therapeutic alternative for breast cancer.

Abstract
Covering: 1995 to 2022Tumors possess both genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity leading to the survival of subpopulations post-treatment. The term cancer stem cells (CSCs) describes a subpopulation that is resistant to many types of chemotherapy and which also possess enhanced migratory and anchorage-independent growth capabilities. These cells are enriched in residual tumor material post-treatment and can serve as the seed for future tumor re-growth, at both primary and metastatic sites. Elimination of CSCs is a key goal in enhancing cancer treatment and may be aided by application of natural products in conjunction with conventional treatments. In this review, we highlight molecular features of CSCs and discuss synthesis, structure-activity relationships, derivatization, and effects of six natural products with anti-CSC activity.

Abstract
Although chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy (PDT) have been developed for fighting cancer, the complex and heterogeneous nature of tumors makes it difficult for a single therapy to completely inhibit tumor growth. In order to reduce multidrug resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs and overcome low PDT efficiency in the hypoxic tumor microenvironment (TME), chemo/PDT synergistic treatment has received much attention in recent years. Depending on the characteristic signals of TME, various drug delivery systems can be constructed to target tumors and improve the therapeutic efficacy and the pharmacokinetic profile of anticancer drugs. This review highlights the synergistic strategies, treatment protocols, and design of chemo/PDT co-therapy in recent years to explore its scope and limitations. Taking advantage of stimuli-responsive materials and active cancer-targeting agents, cancer-targeting synergistic therapy is presented and discussed, providing ideas and suggestions for the construction of chemo/PDT co-therapy "smart" nanocarriers.

Abstract
Silybin (SIL) is a polyphenolic phytoconstituent that is commonly used to treat liver disorders. It is difficult to fabricate an orally delivered SIL product due to its low oral bioavailability (0.95%). Therefore, the current research focusses on the development of a novel composition of a phospholipid complex, termed as nanophytophospholipid, of SIL by employing a unique, solvent-free Twin Screw Process (TSP), with the goal of augmenting the solubility and bioavailability of SIL. The optimised SIL-nanophytophospholipid (H6-SNP) was subjected to physicochemical interactions by spectrometry, thermal, X-ray and electron microscopy. The mechanism of drug and phospholipid interaction was confirmed by molecular docking and dynamics studies. Saturation solubility, in vitro dissolution, ex vivo permeation and preclinical pharmacokinetic studies were also conducted. H6-SNP showed good complexation efficiency, with a high practical yield (80%). The low particle size (334.7 ± 3.0 nm) and positively charged zeta potential (30.21 ± 0.3 mV) indicated the immediate dispersive nature of H6-SNP into nanometric dimensions, with good physical stability. Further high solubility and high drug release from the H6-SNP was also observed. The superiority of the H6-SNP was demonstrated in the ex vivo and preclinical pharmacokinetic studies, displaying enhanced apparent permeability (2.45-fold) and enhanced bioavailability (1.28-fold). Overall, these findings indicate that not only can phospholipid complexes be formed using solvent-free TSP, but also that nanophytophospholipids can be formed by using a specific quantity of lipid, drug, surfactant, superdisintegrant and diluent. This amalgamation of technology and unique composition can improve the oral bioavailability of poorly soluble and permeable phytoconstituents or drugs.

Abstract
Using a novel strategy, amphiphilic polyphosphoesters based on poly(oxyethylene H-phosphonate)s (POEHP) with different poly(ethylene glycol) segment lengths and aliphatic alcohols with various alkyl chain lengths were synthesized using polycondensation reactions. They were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C {H} NMR 31P NMR, IR, and size exclusion chromatography (SEC). The effects of the polymer structure on micelle formation and stability, micelle size, and critical micelle temperature were studied via dynamic light scattering (DLS). The hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance of these polymers can be controlled by changing the chain lengths of hydrophilic PEG and hydrophobic alcohols. A solubilizing test, using Sudan III, revealed that hydrophobic substances can be incorporated inside the hydrophobic core of polymer associates. Loading capacity depends on the length of alkyl side chains. The results obtained indicate that these structurally flexible polymers have the potential as drug carriers.

Abstract
Poly(2-oxazoline) (POx) has been regarded as a potential candidate for drug delivery carrier to meet the challenges of nanomedicine clinical translation, due to its excellent biocompatibility and self-assembly properties. The drug loading capacity and stability of amphiphilic POxs as drug nanocarriers, however, tend to be insufficient. Herein, we report a strategy to prepare nucleobase-crosslinked POx nanoparticles (NPs) with enhanced stability and ultra-high paclitaxel (PTX) loading capacity for breast cancer therapy. An amphiphilic amine-functionalized POx (PMBEOx-NH2) was firstly prepared through a click reaction between cysteamines and vinyl groups in poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline)-block-poly (2‑butyl‑2-oxazoline-co-2-butenyl-2-oxazoline) (PMBEOx). Complementary nucleobase-pairs adenine (A) and uracil (U) were subsequently conjugated to PMBEOx-NH2 to give functional POxs (POxA and POxU), respectively. Due to the nucleobase interactions formed between A and U, NPs formed by POxA and POxU at a molar ratio of 1:1 displayed ultrahigh PTX loading capacity (38.2%, PTX/POxA@U), excellent stability, and reduced particle size compared to the uncross-linked PTX-loaded NPs (PTX/PMBEOx). Besides the prolonged blood circulation and enhanced tumor accumulation, the smaller PTX/POxA@U NPs also have better tumor penetration ability compared with PTX/PMBEOx, thus leading to a higher tumor suppression rate in two murine breast cancer models (E0711 and 4T1). These results proved that the therapeutic effect of chemotherapeutic drugs could be improved remarkably through a reasonable optimization of nanocarriers.

Abstract
Acquired chemoresistance presents a major clinical impediment, which is an urgent problem to be solved. Interestingly, myeloma cell leukemia-1 (MCL-1) and folate receptor expression levels are higher in chemotherapy-resistant patients than in pretreatment patients. In this study, a multifunctional folic acid (FA)-targeting core-shell structure is presented for simultaneous delivery of shMCL-1 and paclitaxel (PTX). The transfection efficiency of shMCL-1 with the FA-targeting delivery system is higher than with a nontargeting delivery system in Skov3 and A2780T cells. The FA-targeting system significantly inhibits cell growth, blocks cell cycles, and promotes apoptosis of cancer cells in vitro. The mechanisms involved in inhibiting growth are related to Bcl-2/Bax and cdc2/Cyclin B1 pathways. An analysis of RNA sequencing suggests that shMCL-1 reverses chemoresistance through regulating genes such as regulator of chromosome condensation 2 (RCC2). The synergetic effect of shMCL-1 and PTX effectively inhibits tumor growth in both PTX-resistant and normal cancer models by inducing tumor apoptosis, inhibiting proliferation, and limiting tumor angiogenesis. The study results indicate that a FA-targeting delivery system combining shMCL-1 with PTX can simultaneously target tumor sites and restore the sensitivity of chemotherapy-resistant cancer to PTX. These findings have important implications for patients with normal or PTX-resistant cancer.

Abstract
The hydrophobicity of most of the anticancer drugs offers a great challenge in selecting a system for their effective transport. Here comes the importance of micelles that offers a hydrophobic core for incorporating these drugs. In this study, Hyaluronic Acid coated Pluronic mixed micelle loaded with Paclitaxel and Curcumin was designed and evaluated its anticancer activity in MCF-7 cells. Pluronic F127 (PF127) and Pluronic P123 (PP123) were taken for preparing the mixed micelles. The targeting ligand folic acid (FA) was conjugated to one end of PP123 forming FA-PP. The end hydroxyl groups of PF127 were oxidized to aldehyde groups resulted in PF-CHO. Mixed micelles were prepared from PF-CHO and FA-PP and the end aldehyde groups were used for coating the micelles with hyaluronic acid. The material was characterized using FTIR, H1NMR, DLS, FE-SEM and TEM. The coated micelles showed spherical shape with drug loading efficiency of 50.15 and 65.05% for Paclitaxel and Curcumin, respectively. In vitro drug release was studied at pH 5.5 and 7.4. Dual drug-loaded material showed higher in-vitro anticancer activity than free Paclitaxel and Curcumin. The results suggested that synthesized mixed micelle with dual drugs showed great potential for targeted delivery to MCF-7 cells.

Abstract
Cellular uptake of nanoparticles plays a crucial role in cell-targeted biomedical applications. Despite abundant studies trying to understand the interaction between nanoparticles and cells, the influence of cell geometry traits such as cell spreading area and cell shape on the uptake of nanoparticles remains unclear. In this study, poly(vinyl alcohol) is micropatterned on polystyrene cell culture plates using ultraviolet photolithography to control the spreading area and shape of individual cells. The effects of these factors on the cellular uptake of poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide)-based micelles were investigated at a single-cell level. Human carcinoma MCF-7 and A549 cells as well as normal Hs-27 and MRC-5 fibroblasts were cultured on micropatterned surfaces. MCF-7 and A549 cells, both with larger sizes, had a higher total micelle uptake. However, the uptake of Hs-27 and MRC-5 cells decreased with increasing spreading area. In terms of cell shapes, MCF-7 and A549 cells with round shapes showed a higher micelle uptake, while those with a square shape had a lower cellular uptake. On the other hand, Hs-27 and MRC-5 cells showed opposite behaviors. The results indicate that the geometry of cells can influence the nanoparticle uptake and may shed light on the design of functional nanoparticles.

Abstract
Nanoparticles with bone targeting ability and pH-sensitivity were prepared with polyaspartamide (PASPAM) derivatives based on polysuccinimide (PSI) grafted with octadecylamine (C18), hydrazine (HYD) and polyethylene glycol (PEG, Mw: 5000). For the bone targeting, alendronate (ALN), which has bone affinity, was grafted to PEG and doxorubicin (DOX) was conjugated with linkers of acid sensitive hydrazone bonds, which can be cleaved most effectively in an intracellular acidic environment. At pH 5.0, ∼75% of the drug was released from ALN-PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM due to the effective cleavage of HYD under the acidic condition. Also, ALN-PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM particles were more effectively adsorbed on the surface of bone than PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM. According to an in vivo antitumor activity test, the volume of tumor treated with ALN-PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM decreased (1550 mm3) when compared with the PBS control sample (3850 mm3), proving that ALN-PEG/C18/HYD-DOX-g-PASPAM is an effective drug delivery system for the treatment of bone metastasis of breast cancer.

Abstract
Facile engineering of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-based supramolecular nanocontainers with simultaneous enhanced extracellular stability and efficient intracellular biosignals-triggered destabilization generally suffers from multistep synthesis and tedious purification process, thus remains a significant challenge for the scale-up production and clinical translation of β-CD-based supramolecular nanomedicine. To address these issues, we reported in this study a one-pot preparation of dual-redox sensitive, stabilized supramolecular nanocontainers for potential programmable drug release by self-crosslinking of a multifunctional β-CD unit that integrates a host cavity for oxidation-mediated reversible complexation with ferrocence (Fc) guest molecule and lipoic acids (LAs)-decorated primary and secondary faces for reversible in-situ crosslinking by the reducible disulfide links. The resulting doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded nanoparticles showed, on one hand, enhanced colloidal stability and high DOX loading capacity with a drug loading content (DLC) of approximately 11.3% due to the crosslinked structure, and on the other hand, a programmable destruction of the supramolecular micelles triggered by a simultaneous adoption of intracellular glutathione (GSH) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) toward a complete structural destruction for promoted drug release with enhanced therapeutic efficiency. Notably, an optimized DOX-loaded micelle formation, DOX@CL P1 showed greater cytotoxicity with an IC50 of 2.94 ± 0.25 μg/mL than free DOX (6.00 ± 0.56 μg/mL) in Bel-7402 cancer liver cells, but a significantly reduced side effect relative to free DOX in L02 normal liver cells. In vivo animal study in Bel-7402 tumor-bearing BALB/c mice further confirmed prolonger elimination half-life time, efficient tumor accumulation, enhanced therapeutic efficiency and compromised systemic toxicity of this micelle construct. Therefore the multifunctional CD unit developed in this study offers an extremely straightforward and robust strategy with respect to dual-redox responsive, stabilized supramolecular nanocontainers with potential programmable controlled release properties for clinical translations.

Abstract
In the past two decades, conjugated polymers (CPs) have drawn great attention due to their excellent conductivity and charge mobility, rendering them broad applications in organic electronics. Controlling over the morphologies and nanostructures of CPs is very important to improve the performance of CP-based devices, which is still a tremendously difficult task. Conjugated block copolymers (cBCPs), composed of different CP blocks or CP coupled with coiled polymeric blocks, not only maintain the advantages of high conductivity and mobility but also demonstrate features of morphological versatility and tunability. Due to the strong π-π interaction and crystallinity of the conjugated backbones, the self-assembly behaviors of cBCPs are very complicated and largely remain to be explored. In this tutorial review, we first summarize the general synthetic methods for different types of cBCPs. Then, recent studies on the self-assembly behaviors of cBCPs are discussed, with an emphasis on the structural factors that affect the morphologies of cBCPs both in bulk and thin film states. Finally, we briefly provide our outlook on the future research of the self-assembly of cBCPs.

Abstract
Nanostructured colloidal self-assembly (NCS) is one of the most promising drug delivery carriers in cancer treatment. The present research work aimed towards synthesizing meloxicam (MLX) loaded NCS for its improved circulation half-life and increased cellular internalization. NCS was formulated using glyceryl monoolein, Pluronic® F127, and MLX. Quality by Design experiments with a quadratic model was subjected to optimization of the formulation. The optimized NCS with an average particle size of 185.5 ± 3.02 nm showed higher MLX encapsulation (94.74 ± 3.41%) and sustained release behavior of MLX up to 24 hr. in vitro cytotoxicity of the developed NCS with MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines confirmed lower cell viability and a higher rate of cell growth inhibition. This MLX loaded NCS showed dual activity as an antitumor and anti-inflammatory in highly invasive estrogen-dependent MDA-MB-231 cells due to the high expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Besides, an activity of the MLX-NCS was also observed in 3D printed MCF-7 cells. This investigation shows the possible use of MLX-NCS as an efficient cancer drug delivery system with excellent colloidal stability, sustained release of MLX, enhanced antitumor and anti-inflammatory efficacy in 3D printed scaffolds. In contrast to toxicity study in 2D culture, the 3D constructs revealed the activity of the MLX via COX-2 independent mechanism and demonstrated that the relationship between COX-2 expression and antitumor activity of inhibitors is limited. In conclusion, the overall observations and results of this study strengthen the hypothesized development of NCS as a next-generation therapeutics regimen for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Severe side effects and poor therapeutic efficacy are the main drawbacks of current anticancer drugs. These problems can be mitigated by targeting, but the targeting efficacy of current drugs is poor and urgently needs improvement. Taking this into consideration, this Review first summarizes the current targeting strategies for cancer therapy in terms of cancer tissue and organelles. Then, we analyse the systematic targeting of anticancer drugs and conclude that a typical journey for a targeted drug administered by intravenous injection is a CTIO cascade of at least four steps. Furthermore, to ensure high overall targeting efficacy, the properties of a targeting drug needed in each step are further analysed, and some guidelines for structure optimization to obtain effective targeting drugs are offered. Finally, some viewpoints highlighting the crucial problems and potential challenges of future research on targeted cancer therapy are presented. This review could actively promote the development of precision medicine against cancer.

Abstract
In this study, self-assembled phytosomal soft nanoparticles encapsulated with phospholipid complex (MPLC SNPs) using a combination of solvent evaporation and nanoprecipitation method were developed to enhance the biopharmaceutical and antioxidant potential of MGN. The mangiferin-Phospholipon® 90H complex (MPLC) was produced by the solvent evaporation method and optimized using central composite design (CCD). The optimized MPLC was converted into MPLC SNPs using the nanoprecipitation method. The physicochemical and functional characterization of MPLC and MPLC SNPs was carried out by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffractometer (PXRD), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), solubility, in vitro dissolution, oral bioavailability, and in vivo antioxidant studies. A CCD formed stable MPLC with the optimal values of 1:1.76, 50.55 °C, and 2.02 h, respectively. Characterization studies supported the formation of a complex. MPLC and MPLC SNPs both enhanced the aqueous solubility (~ 32-fold and ~ 39-fold), dissolution rate around ~ 98% via biphasic release pattern, and permeation rate of ~ 97%, respectively, compared with MGN and MGN SNPs. Liver function tests and in vivo antioxidant studies exhibited that MPLC SNPs significantly preserved the CCl4-intoxicated liver marker and antioxidant marker enzymes, compared with MGN SNPs. The oral bioavailability of MPLC SNPs was increased appreciably up to ~ 10-fold by increasing the main pharmacokinetic parameters such as Cmax, Tmax, and AUC. Thus, MPLC SNPs could be engaged as a nanovesicle delivery system for improving the biopharmaceutical and antioxidant potential of MGN. Graphical abstract.

Comparative study of cytotoxicity by platinum nanoparticles and ions in vitro systems based on fish cell lines. Toxicol In Vitro 2020; 66:104859. [PMID: 32289358 DOI: 10.1016/j.tiv.2020.104859] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2019] [Revised: 03/17/2020] [Accepted: 04/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Emission of platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) especially from vehicle exhaust catalysts and pharmaceutics cause an increase in concentrations of this metal in aquatic environments. In this study, small (4-9 nm) uncoated and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) coated Pt NPs were synthetized and their dispersion in different exposure media were evaluated. Pt NP uptake in two established fish cell lines were investigated and comparative in vitro cytotoxicity of Pt NPs and ions were assessed. The coated and uncoated Pt NPs dispersions in minimum essential medium (MEM) with fetal bovine serum (FBS) displayed high colloidal stability. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (STEM/EDX) indicated no detectable cellular uptake of Pt NPs in both cell line monolayers. But with ICP-MS analysis, trace amount of Pt content was determined in all digested monolayer cell samples. The cytotoxicity of both Pt NPs and Pt ions on both fish cell lines after 48 h exposure was investigated through three assays to monitor different endpoints of cytotoxicity. In all studied concentrations (0.325-200 mg/L) no significant cytotoxicity (p > .5) compared to controls were observed in the cells exposed to coated Pt NPs. Uncoated Pt NP and ion exposed cells indicated similar concentration dependent cytotoxicity on both cell lines.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2020; 7:1902701. [PMID: 32328415 PMCID: PMC7175344 DOI: 10.1002/advs.201902701] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2019] [Revised: 01/07/2020] [Accepted: 02/13/2020] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
Physical or chemical crosslinking of polymeric micelles has emerged as a straightforward approach to overcome the intrinsic instability of assemblies. However, the crosslinking process may compromise the responsivity of nanosystems and result in inefficient release of payloads. To address this dilemma, a crosslinking induced reassembly (CIRA) strategy is reported here to simultaneously increase the kinetic and thermodynamic stability and redox-responsivity of polymeric micelles. It is found that the click crosslinking of a model multiblock polyurethane at the micellar interface induces microphase separation between the soft and hard segments. The aggregation of hard domains gathers liable disulfide linkages around the interlayer of micelles, which could facilitate the attack of reducing agents and act as an intelligent on-off switch for high stability and triggered release. As a result, the CIRA approach enables an enhanced tumor targeting, improved biodistribution and excellent therapeutic efficacy in vivo. This work provides a facile and versatile platform for controlled delivery applications.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the second most common cancer and the leading cause of death in both men and women in the world. Lung cancer is heterogeneous in nature and diagnosis is often at an advanced stage as it develops silently in the lung and is frequently associated with high mortality rates. Despite the advances made in understanding the biology of lung cancer, progress in early diagnosis, cancer therapy modalities and considering the mechanisms of drug resistance, the prognosis and outcome still remains low for many patients. Nanotechnology is one of the fastest growing areas of research that can solve many biological problems such as cancer. A growing number of therapies based on using nanoparticles (NPs) have successfully entered the clinic to treat pain, cancer, and infectious diseases. Recent progress in nanotechnology has been encouraging and directed to developing novel nanoparticles that can be one step ahead of the cancer reducing the possibility of multi-drug resistance. Nanomedicine using NPs is continuingly impacting cancer diagnosis and treatment. Chemotherapy is often associated with limited targeting to the tumor, side effects and low solubility that leads to insufficient drug reaching the tumor. Overcoming these drawbacks of chemotherapy by equipping NPs with theranostic capability which is leading to the development of novel strategies. This review provides a synopsis of current progress in theranostic applications for lung cancer diagnosis and therapy using NPs including liposome, polymeric NPs, quantum dots, gold NPs, dendrimers, carbon nanotubes and magnetic NPs.
