Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have attracted extensive attention as drug delivery systems because of their unique meso-structural features (high specific surface area, large pore volume, and tunable pore structure), easily modified surface, high drug-loading capacity, and sustained-release profiles. However, the enduring and non-specific enrichment of MSNs in healthy tissues may lead to toxicity due to their slow degradability and hinder their clinical application. The emergence of degradable MSNs provided a solution to this problem. The understanding of strategies to regulate degradation and clearance of these MSNs for promoting clinical trials and expanding their biological applications is essential. Here, a diverse variety of degradable MSNs regarding considerations of physiochemical properties and doping strategies of degradation, the biodistribution of MSNs in vivo, internal clearance mechanism, and adjusting physical parameters of clearance are highlighted. Finally, an overview of these degradable and clearable MSNs strategies for biosafety is provided along with an outlook of the encountered challenges.

Abstract
Mutations in nuclear and mitochondrial genes are responsible for severe chronic disorders such as mitochondrial myopathies. Gene therapy using antisense oligonucleotides is a promising strategy to treat mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) diseases by blocking the replication of the mutated mtDNA. However, transport vehicles are needed for intracellular, mitochondria-specific transport of oligonucleotides. Nanoparticle (NP) based vectors such as large pore mesoporous silica nanoparticles (LP) often rely on surface complexation of oligonucleotides exposing them to nucleases and limiting mitochondria targeting and controlled release ability. In this work, stable, fluorescent, hollow silica nanoparticles (HSN) that encapsulate and protect oligonucleotides in the hollow core were synthesized by a facile one-pot procedure. Both rhodamine B isothiocyanate and bis[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide were incorporated in the HSN matrix by co-condensation to enable cell tracing, intracellular-specific degradation and controlled oligonucleotide release. We also synthesized LP as a benchmark to compare the oligonucleotide loading and release efficacy of our HSN. Mitochondria targeting was enabled by NP functionalization with cationic, lipophilic Triphenylphosphine (TPP) and, for the first time a fusogenic liposome based carrier, previously reported under the name MITO-Porter. HSN exhibited high oligonucleotide incorporation ratios and release dependent on intracellular degradation. Further, MITO-Porter capping of our NP enabled delayed, glutathione (GSH) responsive oligonucleotide release and mitochondria targeting at the same efficiency as TPP functionalized NP. Overall, our NP are promising vectors for anti-gene therapy of mtDNA disease as well as many other monogenic disorders worldwide.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapies are flourishing. MSCs could be used as potential therapeutic agents for regenerative medicine due to their own repair function. Meanwhile, the natural predisposition toward inflammation or injury sites makes them promising carriers for targeted drug delivery. Inorganic nanoparticles (INPs) are greatly favored for their unique properties and potential applications in biomedical fields. Current research has integrated INPs with MSCs to enhance their regenerative or antitumor functions. This model also allows the in vivo fate tracking of MSCs in multiple imaging modalities, as many INPs are also excellent contrast agents. Thus, INP-integrated MSCs would be a multifunctional biologic agent with great potential. In this review, the current roles performed by the integration of INPs with MSCs, including (i) enhancing their repair and regeneration capacity via the improvement of migration, survival, paracrine, or differentiation properties, (ii) empowering tumor-killing ability through agent loaded or hyperthermia, and (iii) conferring traceability are summarized. An introduction of INP-integrated MSCs for simultaneous treatment and tracking is also included. The promising applications of INP-integrated MSCs in future treatments are emphasized and the challenges to their clinical translation are discussed.

Abstract
In this study, a novel MXene (Ti3C2Tx)-based nanocarrier was developed for drug delivery. MXene nanosheets were functionalized with 3, 3'-diselanediyldipropionic acid (DSeDPA), followed by grafting doxorubicin (DOX) as a model drug to the surface of functionalized MXene nanosheets (MXene-Se-DOX). The nanosheets were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and zeta potential techniques. The drug-loading capacity (17.95%) and encapsulation efficiency (41.66%) were determined using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The lateral size and thickness of the MXene nanosheets measured using AFM were 200 nm and 1.5 nm, respectively. The drug release behavior of the MXene-Se-DOX nanosheets was evaluated under different medium conditions, and the nanosheets demonstrated outstanding dual (reactive oxygen species (ROS)- and pH-) responsive properties. Furthermore, the MXene-Se-DOX nanosheets exhibited excellent antibacterial activity against both Gram-negative E. coli and Gram-positive B. subtilis.

Cefazolin/BMP-2-Loaded Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles for the Repair of Open Fractures with Bone Defects. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:8385456. [PMID: 36193077 PMCID: PMC9526639 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8385456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2022] [Revised: 08/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The study aimed to explore the feasibility of a nanodrug delivery system to treat open fractures with bone defects. We developed a cefazolin (Cef)/bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2)@mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) delivery system; meanwhile, Cef/MBP-2@ poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) was also developed as control. For the purpose of determining the osteogenic and anti-inflammatory actions of the nanodelivery system, we cultured bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and constructed a bone defect mouse model to evaluate its clinical efficacy. After physicochemical property testing, we determined that MSN had good stability and did not easily accumulate or precipitate and it could effectively prolong the Cef’s half-life by nearly eight times. In BMSCs, we found that compared with the PLGA delivery system, MSNs better penetrated into the bone tissue, thus effectively increasing BMSCs’ proliferation and migration ability to facilitate bone defect repair. Furthermore, the MSN delivery system could improve BMSCs’ mineralization indexes (alkaline phosphatase [ALP], osteocalcin [OCN], and collagen I [Col I]) to effectively improve its osteogenic ability. Moreover, the MSN delivery system could inhibit inflammation in bone defect mice, which was mainly reflected in its ability to reduce the release of IL-1β and IL-4 and increase IL-10 levels; it could also effectively reduce apoptosis of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, thus improving their immune function. Furthermore, the percentage of new bones, bone mineral density, trabecular volume, and trabecular numbers in the fracture region were improved in mice treated with MSN, which allowed better repair of bone defects. Hence, Cef/BMP-2@MSN may be feasible for open fractures with bone defects.

Zn-Loaded and Calcium Phosphate-Coated Degradable Silica Nanoparticles Can Effectively Promote Osteogenesis in Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 12:2918.

Abstract
Nanoparticles such as mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) and mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) are promising for use in bone regeneration applications due to their inherent bioactivity. Doping silica nanoparticles with bioinorganic ions could further enhance their biological performance. For example, zinc (Zn) is often used as an additive because it plays an important role in bone formation and development. Local delivery and dose control are important aspects of its therapeutic application. In this work, we investigated how Zn incorporation in MSN and MBG nanoparticles impacts their ability to promote human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) osteogenesis and mineralization in vitro. Zn ions were incorporated in three different ways; within the matrix, on the surface or in the mesopores. The nanoparticles were further coated with a calcium phosphate (CaP) layer to allow pH-responsive delivery of the ions. We demonstrate that the Zn incorporation amount and ion release profile affect the nanoparticle's ability to stimulate osteogenesis in hMSCs. Specifically, we show that the nanoparticles that contain rapid Zn release profiles and a degradable silica matrix were most effective in inducing hMSC differentiation. Moreover, cells cultured in the presence of nanoparticle-containing media resulted in the highest induction of alkaline phosphate (ALP) activity, followed by culturing hMSC on nanoparticles immobilized on the surface as films. Exposure to nanoparticle-conditioned media did not increase ALP activity in hMSCs. In summary, Zn incorporation mode and nanoparticle application play an important role in determining the bioactivity of ion-doped silica nanoparticles.

Abstract
People have continued to be petrified by the devastating effects of cancer for decades and thus a pursuit for developing anticancer agents have seen an ever-increasing trend in the past few decades. Globally, breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women and the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths. In Saudi Arabia, breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women, constituting almost 14.2% of the total cancer burden. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer, which is a pathologically diverse disease of higher grade characterized by the absence of the estrogen receptor (ER), the progesterone receptor (PR), and the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expressions. Despite the considerable advancements achieved in the therapeutic management of cancer, TNBC remains an unbeatable challenge, which requires immediate attention as it lacks conventional targets for treatment, leading to a poor clinical prognosis. The present research goals are directed toward the development and implementation of treatment regimens with enhanced bioavailability, targetability, minimized systemic toxicity, and improved outcomes of treatment options. The present treatment and management scenario of TNBC continues to provoke oncologists as well as nanomedical scientists to develop novel and efficient nanotherapies. Lately, scientific endeavors have addressed the importance of enhanced availability and targeted cellular uptake with minimal toxicity, which are achieved by the application of nano drug-carriers. This review intends to summarize the incidence rates of TNBC patients, the importance of nanotherapeutic options for patients suffering from TNBC, the identification of promising molecular targets, and challenges associated with the development of targeted nanotherapeutics with special reference to the Saudi Arabian context.

Abstract
Stem cell (SC)-based therapies hold the potential to revolutionize therapeutics by enhancing the body's natural repair processes. Currently, there are only three SC therapies with marketing authorization within the European Union. To optimize outcomes, it is important to understand the biodistribution and behavior of transplanted SCs in vivo. A variety of imaging agents have been developed to trace SCs; however, they mostly lack the ability to simultaneously monitor the SC function and biodistribution at high resolutions. Here, we report the synthesis and application of a nanoparticle (NP) construct consisting of a gold NP core coated with rhodamine B isothiocyanate (RITC)-doped mesoporous silica (AuMS). The MS layer further contained a thiol-modified internal surface and an amine-modified external surface for dye conjugation. Highly fluorescent AuMS of three different sizes were successfully synthesized. The NPs were non-toxic and efficiently taken up by limbal epithelial SCs (LESCs). We further showed that we can functionalize AuMS with a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive fluorescent dye using two methods, loading the probe into the mesopores, with or without additional capping by a lipid bilayer, and by covalent attachment to surface and/or mesoporous-functionalized thiol groups. All four formulations displayed a ROS concentration-dependent increase in fluorescence. Further, in an ex vivo SC transplantation model, a combination of optical coherence tomography and fluorescence microscopy was used to synergistically identify AuMS-labeled LESC distribution at micrometer resolution. Our AuMS constructs allow for multimodal imaging and simultaneous ROS sensing of SCs and represent a promising tool for in vivo SC tracing.

Abstract
The lipid-coated mesoporous silica nanoparticles (LMSNs) that can synergistically harness the advantages and mitigate the disadvantages of the liposomes and MSNs are considered potential drug carriers. So far, several methods have been developed to prepare LMSNs, including vesicle fusion, thin-film hydration, and solvent exchange. Despite their wide application in LMSN preparation, these methods are short of detailed elaboration and comparison, which hinders their further development. In this review, for the first time, the three methods are systematically summarized, including their mechanisms, influence factors, advantages, and limitations. Although these methods are all based on lipid self-assembly, there is still a difference between them. In order to efficiently prepare LMSNs, we proposed that a suitable method should be selected based on the actual situation. It is conceivable that the elaboration and comparison in this review will make these methods easy to be understood and provide guidance for the design of LMSNs as drug carriers.

Abstract
Bulk calcium phosphates and silicate-based bioglasses have been extensively studied since the early 1970s due to their unique capacity to bind to host bone, which led to their clinical translation and commercialization in the 1980s. Since the mid-1990s, researchers have synthesized nanoscale calcium phosphate and silicate-based particles of increased specific surface area, chemical reactivity and solubility which offer specific advantages as compared to their bulk counterparts. This review provides a critical perspective on the history and emerging trends of these two classes of ceramic nanoparticles. Their synthesis and functional properties in terms of particle composition, size, shape, charge, dispersion, and toxicity are discussed as a function of relevant processing parameters. Specifically, emerging trends such as the influence of ion doping and mesoporosity on the biological and pharmaceutical performance of these nanoparticles are reviewed in more detail. Finally, a broad comparative overview is provided on the physicochemical properties and applicability of calcium phosphate and silicate-based nanoparticles within the fields of i) local delivery of therapeutic agents, ii) functionalization of biomaterial scaffolds or implant coatings, and iii) bio-imaging applications.

Abstract
Ceramic (nano)materials are promising materials for bone regeneration applications. The addition of bioinorganics such as strontium (Sr) and zinc (Zn) is a popular approach to further improve their biological performance. However, control over ion delivery is important to prevent off-target effects. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are popular nanomaterials that can be designed to incorporate and controllably deliver multiple ions to steer specific regenerative processes. In this work, MSNs loaded with Sr (MSNSr ) and surface coated with a pH-sensitive calcium phosphate (MSNSr -CaP) or calcium phosphate zinc layer (MSNSr -CaZnP) are developed. The ability of the MSNs to promote osteogenesis in human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) under basic cell culture conditions is explored and compared to ion administration directly to the cell culture media. Here, it is shown that MSN-CaPs can effectively induce alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and osteogenic gene expression in the absence of other osteogenic stimulants, where an improved effect is observed for MSNs surface coated with multiple ions. Moreover, comparatively lower ion doses are needed when using MSNs as delivery vehicles compared to direct ion administration in the medium. In summary, the MSNs developed here represent promising vehicles to deliver (multiple) bioinorganics and promote hMSC osteogenesis in basic conditions.

Tethering Cells via Enzymatic Oxidative Crosslinking Enables Mechanotransduction in Non-Cell-Adhesive Materials. ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2021; 33:e2102660.

Abstract
Cell-matrix interactions govern cell behavior and tissue function by facilitating transduction of biomechanical cues. Engineered tissues often incorporate these interactions by employing cell-adhesive materials. However, using constitutively active cell-adhesive materials impedes control over cell fate and elicits inflammatory responses upon implantation. Here, an alternative cell-material interaction strategy that provides mechanotransducive properties via discrete inducible on-cell crosslinking (DOCKING) of materials, including those that are inherently non-cell-adhesive, is introduced. Specifically, tyramine-functionalized materials are tethered to tyrosines that are naturally present in extracellular protein domains via enzyme-mediated oxidative crosslinking. Temporal control over the stiffness of on-cell tethered 3D microniches reveals that DOCKING uniquely enables lineage programming of stem cells by targeting adhesome-related mechanotransduction pathways acting independently of cell volume changes and spreading. In short, DOCKING represents a bioinspired and cytocompatible cell-tethering strategy that offers new routes to study and engineer cell-material interactions, thereby advancing applications ranging from drug delivery, to cell-based therapy, and cultured meat.

Abstract
Tumor-targeted delivery and controlled release of antitumor drugs are promising strategies for increasing chemotherapeutic efficacy and reducing adverse effects. Although mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been known as a potential delivery system for doxorubicin (DOX), they have restricted applications due to their uncontrolled leakage and burst release from their large open pores. Herein, we engineered a smart drug-delivery system (smart MSN-drug) based on MSN-drug loading, cell membrane mimetic coating, on-demand pore blocking/opening, and tumor cell targeting strategies. The pore size of DOX-loaded MSNs was narrowed by polydopamine coating, and the pores/channels were blocked with tumor-targeting ligands anchored by tumor environment-rupturable -SS- chains. Furthermore, a cell membrane mimetic surface was constructed to enhance biocompatibility of the smart MSN-drug. Confocal microscopy results demonstrate highly selective uptake (12-fold in comparison with L929 cell) of the smart MSN-drug by HeLa cells and delivery into the HeLa cellular nuclei. Further in vitro IC50 studies showed that the toxicity of the smart MSN-drug to HeLa cells was 4000-fold higher than to the normal fibroblast cells. These exciting results demonstrate the utility of the smart MSN-drug capable of selectively killing tumor cells and saving the normal cells.

Abstract
Background & Aims The lysosomal enzyme, cathepsin D (CTSD) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a disease characterised by hepatic steatosis and inflammation. We have previously demonstrated that specific inhibition of the extracellular CTSD leads to improved metabolic features in Sprague-Dawley rats with steatosis. However, the individual roles of extracellular and intracellular CTSD in NASH are not yet known. In the current study, we evaluated the underlying mechanisms of extracellular and intracellular CTSD fractions in NASH-related metabolic inflammation using specific small-molecule inhibitors. Methods Low-density lipoprotein receptor knock out (Ldlr-/-) mice were fed a high-fat, high cholesterol (HFC) diet for ten weeks to induce NASH. Further, to investigate the effects of CTSD inhibition, mice were injected either with an intracellular (GA-12) or extracellular (CTD-002) CTSD inhibitor or vehicle control at doses of 50 mg/kg body weight subcutaneously once in two days for ten weeks. Results Ldlr-/- mice treated with extracellular CTSD inhibitor showed reduced hepatic lipid accumulation and an associated increase in faecal bile acid levels as compared to intracellular CTSD inhibitor-treated mice. Furthermore, in contrast to intracellular CTSD inhibition, extracellular CTSD inhibition switched the systemic immune status of the mice to an anti-inflammatory profile. In line, label-free mass spectrometry-based proteomics revealed that extra- and intracellular CTSD fractions modulate proteins belonging to distinct metabolic pathways. Conclusion We have provided clinically translatable evidence that extracellular CTSD inhibition shows some beneficial metabolic and systemic inflammatory effects which are distinct from intracellular CTSD inhibition. Considering that intracellular CTSD inhibition is involved in essential physiological processes, specific inhibitors capable of blocking extracellular CTSD activity, can be promising and safe NASH drugs.

Abstract
The efficient and safe delivery of therapeutic drugs, proteins, and nucleic acids are essential for meaningful therapeutic benefits. The field of nanomedicine shows promising implications in the development of therapeutics by delivering diagnostic and therapeutic compounds. Nanomedicine development has led to significant advances in the design and engineering of nanocarrier systems with supra-molecular structures. Smart mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), with excellent biocompatibility, tunable physicochemical properties, and site-specific functionalization, offer efficient and high loading capacity as well as robust and targeted delivery of a variety of payloads in a controlled fashion. Such unique nanocarriers should have great potential for challenging biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, bioimaging techniques, stem cell research, and cancer therapies. However, in vivo applications of these nanocarriers should be further validated before clinical translation. To this end, this review begins with a brief introduction of MSNs properties, targeted drug delivery, and controlled release with a particular emphasis on their most recent diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Calcium phosphates (CaPs) in the form of hydroxyapatite (HA) have been extensively studied in the context of bone regeneration due to their chemical similarity to natural bone mineral. While HA is known to promote osteogenic differentiation, the structural properties of the ceramic have been shown to affect the extent of this effect; several studies have suggested that nanostructured HA can improve the bioactivity. However, the role shape plays in the osteogenic potential is more elusive. Here we studied the effect of HA nanoparticle shape on the ability to induce osteogenesis in human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) by developing nanoparticle films using needle-, rice- and spherical-shaped HA. We showed that the HA films made from all three shapes of nanoparticles induced increased levels of osteogenic markers (i.e. runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteopontin (OPN), osteocalcin (OCN) on protein and gene level in comparison to hMSCs cultured on cover glass slides. Furthermore, their expression levels and profiles differed significantly as a function of nanoparticle shape. We also showed that nanoparticle films were more efficient in inducing osteogenic gene expression in hMSCs compared to adding nanoparticles to hMSCs in culture media. Finally, we demonstrated that hMSC morphology upon adhesion to the HA nanoparticle films is dependent on nanoparticle shape, with hMSCs exhibiting a more spread morphology on needle-shaped nanoparticle films compared to hMSCs seeded on rice- and spherical-shaped nanoparticle films. Our data suggests that HA nanoparticle films are efficient in inducing hMSC osteogenesis in basic cell culture conditions and that nanoparticle shape plays a vital role in cell adhesion and morphology and extent of induction of osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
The development of smart interfaces that can guide tissue formation is of great importance in the field of regenerative medicine. Nanoparticles represent an interesting class of materials that can be used to enhance regenerative treatments by enabling close control over surface properties and directing cellular responses. Moreover, nanoparticles can be used to provide temporally controlled delivery of (multiple) biochemical compounds. Here, we exploited the cargo loading and surface functionalization properties of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) to design films that can guide human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) differentiation towards the osteogenic lineage. We developed biocompatible MSN-based films that support stem cell adhesion and proliferation and demonstrated that these MSN films simultaneously allowed efficient local delivery of biomolecules without effecting film integrity. Films loaded with the osteogenesis-stimulating drug dexamethasone (Dex) were able to induce osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs in vitro. Dex delivery from the films led to increased alkaline phosphatase levels and matrix mineralization compared to directly supplementing Dex to the medium. Furthermore, we demonstrated that Dex release kinetics can be modulated using surface modifications with supported lipid bilayers. Together, these data demonstrate that MSN films represent an interesting approach to create biomaterial interfaces with controllable biomolecule release and surface properties to improve the bioactivity of biomaterials. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Engineering surfaces that can control cell and tissue responses is one of the major challenges in biomaterials-based regenerative therapies. Here, we demonstrate the potential of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) as drug-delivering surface coatings. First, we show differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells towards the bone lineage when in contact with MSN films loaded with dexamethasone. Furthermore, we demonstrate that modification of MSNs with supported lipid bilayer allows control over drug release dynamics and cell shape. Given the range of loadable cargos and the tunability of release kinetics, MSN coatings can be used to mimic the sequential appearance of bioactive factors during tissue regeneration, which will ultimately lead to biomaterials with improved bioactivity.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been widely investigated as a nanocarrier for the delivery of various cargoes in nanomedicine. The application of MSNs in tissue engineering is a relatively newly emerged field that has gained much research interest. In this review, the recent advances in the tissue-engineering application of MSNs are summarized. The controlled synthesis of MSNs is delineated first in terms of tuning the morphology, pore size of MSNs, and its surface chemistry, as well as biodegradability. Then, the different roles of MSNs in tissue engineering are successively introduced, which mainly comprise the delivery of bioactive factors, the inherent bioactivity of MSNs, stem cells labelling, and the impacts of incorporated MSNs on scaffolds. Furthermore, the recent progress in the applications of MSNs for tissue engineering, particularly bone tissue engineering, is summarized in detail. Finally, the challenges or potential trends for the further applications of MSNs in tissue engineering are also discussed.

Abstract
In the past decade, nanomedicine research has provided us with highly useful agents (nanoparticles) delivering therapeutic drugs to target cancer cells. The present review highlights nanomedicine applications for breast cancer immunotherapy. Recent studies have suggested that tumour necrosis factor (TNF) and its receptor 2 (TNFR2) expressed on breast cancer cells have important functional consequences. This cytokine/receptor interaction is also critical for promoting highly immune-suppressive phenotypes by regulatory T cells (Tregs). This review generally provides a background for nanoparticles as potential drug delivery agents for immunomodulators and further discusses in depth the potential of TNF antagonists delivery to modulate TNF-TNFR2 interactions and inhibit breast cancer progression.
