Abstract
In this study, we investigated the mechanism of curcumin (CUR) release from poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) nanoparticles (NPs) by evaluating the temperature-dependent CUR release. NPs were prepared by the nanoprecipitation method using various PLGA/PLA polymers with different lactic:glycolic ratios (L:G ratios) and molecular weights. Increasing the polymer molecular weight resulted in a decrease in the particle size of NPs. The wet glass transition temperature (Tg) of PLGA/PLA NPs was lower than the intrinsic polymer Tg, which can be derived from the water absorption and nanosizing of the polymer. The reduction in Tg was more significant for the PLGA/PLA NPs with lower polymer L:G ratios and lower polymer molecular weight. The greater decrease of Tg in the lower polymer L:G ratios was possibly caused by the higher water absorption due to the more hydrophilic nature of the glycolic acid segment than that of the lactic acid segment. The efficient water absorption in PLGA/PLA NPs with lower molecular weight could cause a significant reduction of Tg as it has lower hydrophobicity. CUR release tests from the PLGA/PLA NPs exhibited enhanced CUR release with increasing temperatures, irrespective of polymer species. By fitting the CUR release profiles into mathematical models, the CUR release process was well described by an initial burst release followed by a diffusion-controlled release. The wet Tg and particle size of the PLGA/PLA NPs affected the amount and temperature dependence of the initial burst release of CUR. Above the wet Tg of NPs, the initial burst release of CUR increased sharply. Smaller particle sizes of PLGA/PLA NPs led to a higher fraction of initial CUR burst release, which was more pronounced above the wet Tg of NPs. The wet Tg and particle sizes of the PLGA/PLA NPs also influenced the diffusion-controlled CUR release. The diffusion rate of CUR in the NPs increased as the wet Tg values of the NPs decreased. The diffusion path length of CUR was affected by the particle size, with larger particle size resulting in a prolonged diffusion-controlled release of CUR. This study highlighted that for the formulation development of PLGA/PLA NPs, suitable PLGA/PLA polymers should be selected considering the physicochemical properties of PLGA/PLA NPs and their correlation with the release behavior of encapsulated drugs at the application temperature.

Abstract
Biofilm infections present a serious problem because antibacterial drugs are not effective against mature biofilms or biofilms formed by drug-resistant bacteria. To address this issue, we developed a drug delivery system based on metal-decorated polymeric particles. Polyvinyl caprolactam-polyvinyl acetate-polyethylene glycol graft copolymer (Soluplus®) is an amphiphilic polymer used in biomedical formulations, while silver nanoparticles are widely acknowledged to have high antibacterial activity. We prepared silver-decorated Soluplus® micelle nanoparticles with high antibacterial activity using the emulsion solvent diffusion method. Decoration of Soluplus® micelles with silver nanoparticles was found to increase their antibacterial activity. Scanning transmission electron microscopy-cathodoluminescence (STEM-CL) spectroscopy allows imaging of the spatial distribution of labeled targets and the chemical identification of materials. However, STEM-CL spectroscopy of fragile polymer materials is challenging. We optimized the STEM-CL spectroscopy technique to determine the distribution of silver nanoparticles in Soluplus® micelles. Additionally, the surface plasmon properties of the silver nanoparticles were successfully characterized without deactivation. The developed silver-decorated Soluplus® nanoparticles were effective against biofilm infections and have the potential to be applied for other biofilm-related diseases. Additionally, the optimized STEM-CL spectroscopy technique is expected to contribute to the analysis and imaging of fragile polymer materials, as well as other soft materials such as cells and tissues.

Abstract
: Many synthetic drugs and monoclonal antibodies are currently in use to treat Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). However, they all are implicated in causing severe side effects and long-term use results in many complications. Numerous in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that phytochemicals and natural macromolecules from plants and animals reduce IBD-related complications with encouraging results. Additionally, many of them modify enzymatic activity, alleviate oxidative stress, and downregulate pro-inflammatory transcriptional factors and cytokine secretion. Translational significance of natural nanomedicine and strategies to investigate future natural product-based nanomedicine is discussed. Our focus in this review is to summarize the use of phytochemicals and macromolecules encapsulated in nanoparticles for the treatment of IBD and IBD-associated colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) had neuroprotective effects on dopaminergic (DA) neurons. In order to overcome the gastrointestinal digestion and bioaccessibility, VEGF was encapsulated with poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid nanospheres (NS) in order to prevent the VEGF degradation until its release. The caudal administration of VEGF and NS encapsulated VEGF at different doses (1.0, 10.0, and 100.0 ng/ml) on the rats with Parkinson's disease lesion was evaluated. Intravenous injected VEGF at the dose of 1 ng/ml displayed the strongest neuroprotective effect than other groups as well as the stereotaxic group. The NS encapsulated with VEGF can pass through blood-brain barrier and protect the DA neurons. There was no significant difference between intravenous injection method and stereotaxic method, while the first method is simpler and convenient. Injection of NS encapsulated with VEGF may become a valuable neurorescuing therapeutic approach for Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is a field of research that has been stressed as a very valuable approach for the prevention and treatment of different human health disorders. This has been stressed as a delivery system for the therapeutic fight against an array of pathophysiological situations. Actually, industry has applied this technology in the search for new oral delivery alternatives obtained upon the modification of the solubility properties of bioactive compounds. Significant works have been made in the last years for testing the input that nanomaterials and nanoparticles provide for an array of pathophysiological situations. In this frame, this review addresses general questions concerning the extent to which nanoparticles offer alternatives that improve therapeutic value, while avoid toxicity, by releasing bioactive compounds specifically to target tissues affected by specific chemical and pathophysiological settings. In this regard, to date, the contribution of nanoparticles to protect encapsulated bioactive compounds from degradation as a result of gastrointestinal digestion and cellular metabolism, to enable their release in a controlled manner, enhancing biodistribution of bioactive compounds, and to allow them to target those tissues affected by biological disturbances has been demonstrated.

Abstract
In drug delivery systems employing polymeric nanoparticles, accurate delivery of drugs to target sites such as bacterial cells, cell tissues, and organelles is essential. In particular, when designing drug delivery systems for the treatment of the biofilm infections, evaluation of the interaction between polymeric nanoparticles and biofilm or bacterial cells using a simple technique is of significant importance. Here we develop two types of novel techniques for the biological imaging of the intracellular behavior of two types of polymeric nanoparticles, biodegradable chitosan-modified poly (dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles and chitosan-modified polyvinyl caprolactam - polyvinyl acetate -polyethylene glycol graft copolymer (Soluplus®, Sol) nanoparticles, within a Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm. As the first technique, Raman imaging of unstained biological materials using slit-scanning confocal Raman microscopy (unstained Raman imaging) was performed, and as the second, field-emission scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis of biological materials labeled with quantum dots (SEM-QD imaging) was demonstrated. These analyses revealed differing localization of the respective nanoparticles within the biofilm in accordance with the specific interactions of PLGA nanoparticles and Sol nanoparticles with the biofilm. These novel techniques open the door to biological imaging and analyses with high spatial resolution, which will help to understand the efficacy of drug delivery to target materials.

Anthocyanins encapsulated by PLGA@PEG nanoparticles potentially improved its free radical scavenging capabilities via p38/JNK pathway against Aβ 1-42-induced oxidative stress. J Nanobiotechnology 2017; 15:12. [PMID: 28173812 PMCID: PMC5297201 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-016-0227-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 105] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2016] [Accepted: 11/03/2016] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In order to increase the bioavailability of hydrophilic unstable drugs like anthocyanins, we employed a polymer-based nanoparticles approach due to its unique properties such as high stability, improved bioavailability and high water-soluble drug loading efficiency. Anthocyanins constitute a subfamily of flavonoids that possess anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. However, anthocyanins are unstable because their phenolic hydroxyl groups are easily oxidized into quinones, causing a reduced biological activity. To overcome this drawback and improve the free radical scavenging capabilities of anthocyanins, in the current study we for the first time encapsulated the anthocyanins in biodegradable nanoparticle formulation based on poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and a stabilizer polyethylene glycol (PEG)-2000. The biological activity and neuroprotective effect of anthocyanin loaded nanoparticles (An-NPs) were investigated in SH-SY5Y cell lines. RESULTS Morphological examination under transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed the formation of smooth spherically shaped nanoparticles. The average particle size and zeta potential of An-NPs were in the range of 120-165 nm and -12 mV respectively, with a low polydispersity index (0.4) and displayed a biphasic release profile in vitro. Anthocyanins encapsulation in PLGA@PEG nanoparticles (NPs) did not destroy its inherent properties and exhibit more potent neuroprotective properties. An-NPs were nontoxic to SH-SY5Y cells and increased their cell viability against Aβ1-42 by its free radical scavenging characteristics and abrogated ROS generation via the p38-MAPK/JNK pathways accompanied by induction of endogenous nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1). Comparative to native bulk anthocyanins, An-NPs effectively attenuated Alzheimer's markers like APP (amyloid precursor protein), BACE-1 (beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1), neuroinflammatory markers such as p-NF-kB (phospho-nuclear factor kappa B), TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor) and iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) and neuroapoptotic markers including Bax, Bcl2, and Caspase-3 protein expressions accompanied by neurodegeneration against Aβ1-42 in SH-SY5Y cell lines. CONCLUSIONS Overall, this data not only confirmed the therapeutic potential of anthocyanins in reducing AD pathology but also offer an effective way to improve the efficiency of anthocyanins through the use of nanodrug delivery systems.

Abstract
Understanding of self-protection activity of the bacteria and interaction with drug substances has significant importance for designing of effective drug delivery system for treatment of biofilm infections. Recently silver nanoparticle has attracted attention as antibacterial substance for drug delivery system because of its high antibacterial activity. Here, efflux of silver nanoparticles obtained from within the prepared silver-decorated poly (DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (Ag PLGA) nanoparticles derived from Staphylococcus epidermidis bacterial cell was successfully visualized using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). We also revealed the interaction between prepared Ag PLGA nanoparticles and the bacterial cells at the nanoscale level using field emission scanning electron microscopy and STEM, after a pretreatment process by an ionic liquid. This finding is significant to understand a fundamental function of S. epidermidis bacterial cells, which is not explored previously. The results suggest that Ag PLGA nanoparticles could demonstrate high efficacy against biofilm infections.

Abstract
The high- and low-molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HHA and LHA) were used to conjugate with PLGA-PEG copolymers which were applied to encapsulate DOTAP/pDNA (D/P) lipoplex as a CD44-targeted micelle delivery system. The size and zeta potential of DNA loaded micelles were measured. The cytotoxicity and cellular transfection of DNA loaded micelles were performed in CD44-positive MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cancer cells and CD44-negative HepG2 cells. The endocytosis mechanism of micelles was investigated further. The DNA loaded HA-conjugated micelles possessed negative-charged character which prevented erythrocytes from agglutination. Both LHA-PEG-PLGA and HHA-PEG-PLGA micelles had comparable cellular viability in L929 normal cells. The cellular transfection of HHA-PEG-PLGA micelles was much higher than of LHA-PEG-PLGA micelles in CD44-positive cells. The specific and strong binding of HHA to CD44-positive cells resulted in the cellular transfection of HHA-PEG-PLGA micelles in CD44-positive cells significantly higher than in CD44-negative cells.

Abstract
In this study, we developed a drug delivery system (DDS) using polymeric nanocarriers for the treatment of biofilm infection disease. Clarithromycin (CAM)-encapsulated and chitosan (CS) modified polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared using a polyvinyl caprolactam-polyvinyl acetate-polyethylene glycol graft copolymer (Soluplus®) (Sol) and poly-(DL-lactide-co-glycolide), respectively. To understand the availability of the prepared NPs, we made morphological observations of the antibacterial activity derived from the NPs toward the bacterial cells within the biofilm using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy measurements. These results revealed different antibacterial activities for the two types of drug carriers. In the case of CAM-encapsulated + CS-modified Sol micelles treatment, NPs can exert their antibacterial activity not only by the surfactant, CAM and CS effects but also by intrusion into the bacterial cells. Thereby, CAM-encapsulated + CS-modified Sol micelles had a higher antibacterial activity. The morphological information is useful to design suitable NPs for the treatment against biofilm infections.

Abstract
Current research efforts are focused on the application of growth factors, such as glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), as neuroregenerative approaches that will prevent the neurodegenerative process in Parkinson’s disease. Continuing a previous work published by our research group, and with the aim to overcome different limitations related to growth factor administration, VEGF and GDNF were encapsulated in poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanospheres (NS). This strategy facilitates the combined administration of the VEGF and GDNF into the brain of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) partially lesioned rats, resulting in a continuous and simultaneous drug release. The NS particle size was about 200 nm and the simultaneous addition of VEGF NS and GDNF NS resulted in significant protection of the PC-12 cell line against 6-OHDA in vitro. Once the poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) NS were implanted into the striatum of 6-OHDA partially lesioned rats, the amphetamine rotation behavior test was carried out over 10 weeks, in order to check for in vivo efficacy. The results showed that VEGF NS and GDNF NS significantly decreased the number of amphetamine-induced rotations at the end of the study. In addition, tyrosine hydroxylase immunohistochemical analysis in the striatum and the external substantia nigra confirmed a significant enhancement of neurons in the VEGF NS and GDNF NS treatment group. The synergistic effect of VEGF NS and GDNF NS allows for a reduction of the dose by half, and may be a valuable neurogenerative/neuroreparative approach for treating Parkinson’s disease.
