[PMID: 39296987 PMCID: PMC11409001 DOI: 10.34133/research.0478] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2024] [Revised: 08/26/2024] [Accepted: 08/29/2024] [Indexed: 09/21/2024]
Abstract
Dental, oral, and craniofacial diseases can substantially impact the quality of human life, thereby posing a serious public health concern. Although conventional therapies such as surgery have solved these problems largely, the prognosis of patients is not always satisfactory. Cell membrane-coated nanoparticles (CMCNPs) carry nanodrugs with the help of natural cell membranes, therefore utilizing their remarkable ability to interface and interact with their surrounding environment. These nanoparticles have demonstrated substantial advantages in drug targeting, prolonging blood circulation time, penetrating biofilms, and immune escape. With the assistance of CMCNPs, the therapeutic effects of dental, oral, and craniofacial diseases can reach a higher level. CMCNPs have been applied for dental, oral, and craniofacial diseases for various conditions such as head and neck cancer, periodontal disease, and oral biosignal detection. For the therapies of head and neck cancer, CMCNPs have been widely utilized as a tool of chemotherapy, phototherapy, and immunotherapy, while yet to be exploited in imaging technique. In the end, we summarized the challenges and prospectives of CMCNPs for dental, oral, and craniofacial diseases: large-scale production with uniform standards and high quantity, extensive application directions in dental, oral, and craniofacial regions (implant, endodontics), and the promotion of its clinical application.

Abstract
In recent decades, there has been a burgeoning interest in cell membrane coating strategies as innovative approach for targeted delivery systems in biomedical applications. Platelet membrane-coated nanoparticles (PNPs), in particular, are gaining interest as a new route for targeted therapy due to their advantages over conventional drug therapies. Their stepwise approach blends the capabilities of the natural platelet membrane (PM) with the adaptable nature of manufactured nanomaterials, resulting in a synergistic combination that enhances drug delivery and enables the development of innovative therapeutics. In this context, we present an overview of the latest advancements in designing PNPs with various structures tailored for precise drug delivery. Initially, we describe the types, preparation methods, delivery mechanisms, and specific advantages of PNPs. Next, we focus on three critical applications of PNPs in diseases: vascular disease therapy, cancer treatment, and management of infectious diseases. This review presents our knowledge of PNPs, summarizes their advancements in targeted therapies and discusses the promising potential for clinical translation of PNPs.

Abstract
Platelets are a significant component of the cell population in the tumour microenvironment (TME). Platelets influence other immune cells and perform cross-talk with tumour cells, playing an important role in tumour development. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small membrane vesicles released from the cells into the TME. They can transfer biological information, including proteins, nucleic acids, and metabolites, from secretory cells to target receptor cells. This process affects the progression of various human diseases, particularly cancer. In recent years, several studies have demonstrated that platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) can help regulate the malignant biological behaviours of tumours, including malignant proliferation, resistance to cell death, invasion and metastasis, metabolic reprogramming, immunity, and angiogenesis. Consequently, PEVs have been identified as key regulators of tumour progression. Therefore, targeting PEVs is a potential strategy for tumour treatment. Furthermore, the extensive use of nanomaterials in medical research has indicated that engineered PEVs are ideal delivery systems for therapeutic drugs. Recent studies have demonstrated that PEV engineering technologies play a pivotal role in the treatment of tumours by combining photothermal therapy, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy. In addition, aberrant changes in PEVs are closely associated with the clinicopathological features of patients with tumours, which may serve as liquid biopsy markers for early diagnosis, monitoring disease progression, and the prognostic assessment of patients with tumours. A comprehensive investigation into the role and potential mechanisms of PEVs in tumourigenesis may provide novel diagnostic biomarkers and potential therapeutic strategies for treating human tumours.

Abstract
Tumor immunotherapy characterized by its high specificity and minimal side effects has achieved revolutionary progress in the field of cancer treatment. However, the complex mechanisms of tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and the individual variability of patients' immune system still present significant challenges to its clinical application. Immunocyte membrane-coated nanocarrier systems, as an innovative biomimetic drug delivery platform, exhibit remarkable advantages in tumor immunotherapy due to their high targeting capability, good biocompatibility and low immunogenicity. In this review we summarize the latest research advances in biomimetic delivery systems based on immune cells for tumor immunotherapy. We outline the existing methods of tumor immunotherapy including immune checkpoint therapy, adoptive cell transfer therapy and cancer vaccines etc. with a focus on the application of various immunocyte membranes in tumor immunotherapy and their prospects and challenges in drug delivery and immune modulation. We look forward to further exploring the application of biomimetic delivery systems based on immunocyte membrane-coated nanoparticles, aiming to provide a new framework for the clinical treatment of tumor immunity.

Abstract
This review explores the evolution of lipid-based nanoparticles (LBNPs) for drug delivery (DD). Herein, LBNPs are classified into liposomes and cell membrane-based nanoparticles (CMNPs), each with unique advantages and challenges. Conventional LBNPs possess drawbacks such as poor targeting, quick clearance, and limited biocompatibility. One of the possible alternatives to overcome these challenges is surface modification of nanoparticles (NPs) with materials such as polyethylene glycol (PEG), aptamers, antibody fragments, peptides, CD44, hyaluronic acid, folic acid, palmitic acid, and lactoferrin. Thus, the main focus of this review will be on the different surface modifications that enable LBNPs to have beneficial properties for DD, such as enhancing mass transport properties, immune evasion, improved stability, and targeting. Moreover, various CMNPs are explored used for DD derived from cells such as red blood cells (RBCs), platelets, leukocytes, cancer cells, and stem cells, highlighting their unique natural properties (e.g., biocompatibility and ability to evade the immune system). This discussion extends to the biomimicking of hybrid NPs accomplished through the surface coating of synthetic (mainly polymeric) NPs with different cell membranes. This review aims to provide a comprehensive resource for researchers on recent advances in the field of surface modification of LBNPs and CMNPs. Overall, this review provides valuable insights into the dynamic field of lipid-based DD systems.

Abstract
The oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs has always been the focus of pharmaceutical researchers. We innovatively combined nanocrystal technology and solid dispersion technology to prepare novel nanocrystalline solid dispersions (NCSDs), which enable both the solidification and redispersion of nanocrystals, offering a promising new pathway for oral delivery of insoluble Chinese medicine ingredients. The rubusoside (Rub) was first used as the multifunctional stabilizer of novel apigenin nanocrystal-based solid dispersions (AP-NSD), improving the in vitro solubilization rate of the insoluble drug apigenin(AP). AP-NSD has been produced using a combination of homogenisation and spray-drying technology. The effects of stabilizer type and concentration on AP nanosuspensions (AP-NS) particles, span, and zeta potential were studied. And the effects of different types of protective agents on the yield and redispersibility of AP-NSD were also studied. Furthermore, AP-NSD was characterized by infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). Solubility was used to assess the in vitro dissolution of AP-NSD relative to APIs and amorphous solid dispersions (AP-ASD), and AP-ASD was prepared by the solvent method. The results showed that 20% Rub stabilized AP-NSD exhibited high drug-loading and good redispersibility and stability, and higher in vitro dissolution rate, which may be related to the presence of Rub on surface of drug. Therefore provides a natural and safe option for the development of formulations for insoluble drugs.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials can improve drug delivery by reducing toxicity, increasing bioavailability and boosting efficacy. In this study, the simultaneous use of transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes) along with copper (II) benzene-1, 3, 5-tricarboxylate metal-organic framework (Cu - BTC/MOF) as attractive nanocarriers are investigated for loading and delivering curcumin (CUR) and paclitaxel (PTX) drugs to cancer cells. The efficiency of surface termination (bare and oxygen) in the adsorption of PTX and CUR drugs and the co-loading of these two drugs are evaluated. Our results show that the strongest interaction energy belongs to the adsorption of drug CUR on the MXNNO-Cu-BTC adsorbent, while the interaction of PTX drug with the MXNO- Cu-BTC in the MXNO-Cu-BTC/PTX&CUR system is the lowest due to the particular structure of the drug and the adsorbent. Our results show that at the beginning simulation, the interaction energy between the PTX drug and water in PTX/MXN system is -4645.48 kJ/mol, which reduces to -3848.71 kJ/mol after the system reaches equilibrium. Therefore, the inspected adsorbents have a good performance in adsorbing CUR and PTX drugs. The obtained results from this investigation provide valuable information about experimental studies by medical scientists in the future.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Platelet Membrane Imitating Nanoparticles (PMINs) is a novel drug delivery system that imitates the structure and functionality of platelet membranes. PMINs imitate surface markers of platelets to target specific cells and transport therapeutic cargo. PMINs are engineered by incorporating the drug into the platelet membrane and encapsulating it in a nanoparticle scaffold. This allows PMINs to circulate in the bloodstream and bind to target cells with high specificity, reducing off-target effects and improving therapeutic efficacy. The engineering of PMINs entails several stages, including the separation and purification of platelet membranes, the integration of therapeutic cargo into the membrane, and the encapsulation of the membrane in a nanoparticle scaffold. In addition to being involved in a few pathological conditions including cancer, atherosclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis, platelets are crucial to the body's physiological processes. This study includes the preparation and characterization of platelet membrane-like nanoparticles and focuses on their most recent advancements in targeted therapy for conditions, including cancer, immunological disorders, atherosclerosis, phototherapy, etc. PMINs are a potential drug delivery system that combines the advantages of platelet membranes with nanoparticles. The capacity to create PMMNs with particular therapeutic cargo and surface markers provides new possibilities for targeted medication administration and might completely change the way that medicine is practiced. Despite the need for more studies to optimize the engineering process and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of PMINs in clinical trials, this technology has a lot of potential.

Abstract
In this study, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) were developed and employed to obtain in situ thermosensitive formulations for the ductal administration and prolonged retention of drugs as a new strategy for breast cancer local treatment. NLC size was influenced by the type and concentration of the oil phase, surfactants, and drug incorporation, ranging from 221.6 to 467.5 nm. The type of liquid lipid influenced paclitaxel and 5-fluorouracil cytotoxicity, with tributyrin-containing NLC reducing IC50 values by 2.0-7.0-fold compared to tricaprylin NLC in MCF-7, T-47D and MDA-MB-231 cells. In spheroids, the NLCs reduced IC50 compared to either drug solution (3.2-6.2-fold). Although a significant reduction (1.26 points, p < 0.001) on the health index of Galleria mellonella larvae was observed 5 days after NLC administration, survival was not significantly reduced. To produce thermosensitive gels, the NLCs were incorporated in a poloxamer (11 %, w/w) dispersion, which gained viscosity (2-fold) at 37 °C. After 24 h, ∼53 % of paclitaxel and 83 % of 5-fluorouracil were released from the NLC; incorporation in the poloxamer gel further prolonged release. Intraductal administration of NLC-loaded gel increased the permanence of hydrophilic (2.2-3.0-fold) and lipophilic (2.1-2.3-fold) fluorescent markers in the mammary tissue compared to the NLC (as dispersion) and the markers solutions. In conclusion, these results contribute to improving our understanding of nanocarrier design with increased cytotoxicity and prolonged retention for the intraductal route. Tributyrin incorporation increased the cytotoxicity of paclitaxel and 5-fluorouracil in monolayer and spheroids, while NLC incorporation in thermosensitive gels prolonged tissue retention of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds.

Gugleva V, Andonova V. Recent Progress of Solid Lipid Nanoparticles and Nanostructured Lipid Carriers as Ocular Drug Delivery Platforms. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:ph16030474. [PMID: 36986574 PMCID: PMC10058782 DOI: 10.3390/ph16030474] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 03/12/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Sufficient ocular bioavailability is often considered a challenge by the researchers, due to the complex structure of the eye and its protective physiological mechanisms. In addition, the low viscosity of the eye drops and the resulting short ocular residence time further contribute to the observed low drug concentration at the target site. Therefore, various drug delivery platforms are being developed to enhance ocular bioavailability, provide controlled and sustained drug release, reduce the number of applications, and maximize therapy outcomes. Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) exhibit all these benefits, in addition to being biocompatible, biodegradable, and susceptible to sterilization and scale-up. Furthermore, their successive surface modification contributes to prolonged ocular residence time (by adding cationic compounds), enhanced penetration, and improved performance. The review highlights the salient characteristics of SLNs and NLCs concerning ocular drug delivery, and updates the research progress in this area.

Clinically Expired Platelet Concentrates as a Source of Extracellular Vesicles for Targeted Anti-Cancer Drug Delivery. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15030953. [PMID: 36986815 PMCID: PMC10056378 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15030953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2023] [Revised: 02/25/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The short shelf life of platelet concentrates (PC) of up to 5–7 days leads to higher wastage due to expiry. To address this massive financial burden on the healthcare system, alternative applications for expired PC have emerged in recent years. Engineered nanocarriers functionalized with platelet membranes have shown excellent targeting abilities for tumor cells owing to their platelet membrane proteins. Nevertheless, synthetic drug delivery strategies have significant drawbacks that platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (pEV) can overcome. We investigated, for the first time, the use of pEV as a carrier of the anti-breast cancer drug paclitaxel, considering it as an appealing alternative to improve the therapeutic potential of expired PC. The pEV released during PC storage showed a typical EV size distribution profile (100–300 nm) with a cup-shaped morphology. Paclitaxel-loaded pEV showed significant anti-cancer effects in vitro, as demonstrated by their anti-migratory (>30%), anti-angiogenic (>30%), and anti-invasive (>70%) properties in distinct cells found in the breast tumor microenvironment. We provide evidence for a novel application for expired PC by suggesting that the field of tumor treatment research may be broadened by the use of natural carriers.

Abstract
Nanodrug delivery systems have been widely used in disease treatment. However, weak drug targeting, easy to be cleared by the immune system, and low biocompatibility are great obstacles for drug delivery. As an important part of cell information transmission and behavior regulation, cell membrane can be used as drug coating material which represents a promising strategy and can overcome these limitations. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) membrane, as a new carrier, has the characteristics of active targeting and immune escape of MSC, and has broad application potential in tumor treatment, inflammatory disease, tissue regeneration and other fields. Here, we review recent progress on the use of MSC membrane-coated nanoparticles for therapy and drug delivery, aiming to provide guidance for the design and clinical application of membrane carrier in the future.

Abstract
Cancer is a serious threat to human health, and chemotherapy for cancer is limited by severe side effects. Curcumin (CUR) is a commonly used natural product for antitumor treatment without safety concerns. However, low bioavailability and poor tumor accumulation are great obstacles for its clinical application. Our previous research has demonstrated that platelet membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles can efficiently ameliorate the in vivo kinetic characteristics and enhance the tumor affinity of payloads. Nevertheless, the antitumor efficiency of this formulation still needs to be thoroughly investigated, and its drug release behavior is limited. Herein, CUR-loaded platelet membrane bioinspired chitosan-modified liposome (PCLP-CUR) was constructed to improve CUR release. PCLP-CUR was shown to have long retention time, improved bioavailability, strong tumor targeting capacity and effective cellular uptake. The incorporation of chitosan enabled PCLP-CUR to release cargoes quickly under mild acidic tumor conditions, leading to more complete drug release and favoring subsequent treatment. Both in vitro and in vivo investigations showed that PCLP-CUR could significantly enhance the anticancer efficacy of CUR with minimal side effects through biomimetic membrane and chitosan modification. In summary, this developed delivery system can provide a promising strategy for tumor-targeting therapy and phytochemical delivery.

Abstract
The global prevalence of cancer is increasing, necessitating new additions to traditional treatments and diagnoses to address shortcomings such as ineffectiveness, complications, and high cost. In this context, nano and microparticulate carriers stand out due to their unique properties such as controlled release, higher bioavailability, and lower toxicity. Despite their popularity, they face several challenges including rapid liver uptake, low chemical stability in blood circulation, immunogenicity concerns, and acute adverse effects. Cell-mediated delivery systems are important topics to research because of their biocompatibility, biodegradability, prolonged delivery, high loading capacity, and targeted drug delivery capabilities. To date, a variety of cells including blood, immune, cancer, and stem cells, sperm, and bacteria have been combined with nanoparticles to develop efficient targeted cancer delivery or diagnosis systems. The review paper aimed to provide an overview of the potential applications of cell-based delivery systems in cancer therapy and diagnosis.

Abstract
Cancer is a major threat to the health of humans. Recently, various natural products including curcumin (CCM) have attracted enormous interest for efficacious cancer therapy. However, natural therapeutic agents still encounter certain challenges such as rapid clearance, low bioavailability, and poor tumor targeting. Recently, the platelet membrane (PM) camouflaged nanoparticle has provided a promising solution for cancer targeting therapy. Nevertheless, only limited efforts have been dedicated to systematically explore the mechanism of affinity between PM bioinspired nanoparticles and various tumor cells. Herein, a CCM-encapsulated platelet membrane biomimetic lipid vesicle (CCM@PL) with a size of 163.2 nm, zeta potential of -31.8 mV and encapsulation efficiency of 93.62% was developed. The values of the area under the concentration-time curve and mean residence time for CCM@PL were 3.08 times and 3.04 times those of CCM, respectively. Furthermore, this PM biomimetic carrier showed an excellent affinity against Huh-7, SK-OV-3 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines due to the biomolecular interaction between P-selectin on the PM and tumoral CD44 receptors. In addition, CCM@PL displayed enhanced cytotoxicity compared with free CCM and the synthetic formulation. Overall, our results suggest that this developed PM biomimetic lipid nanovector has great potential for targeted cancer treatment and natural components delivery.

World J Clin Cases 2022; 10:12077-12088. [PMID: 36483802 PMCID: PMC9724514 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v10.i33.12077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Every year, esophageal cancer is responsible for 509000 deaths and around 572000 new cases worldwide. Although esophageal cancer treatment options have advanced, patients still have a dismal 5-year survival rate.
AIM To investigate the relationship between genes associated to platelets and the prognosis of esophageal cancer.
METHODS We searched differentially expressed genes for changes between 151 tumor tissues and 653 normal, healthy tissues using the “limma” package. To develop a prediction model of platelet-related genes, a univariate Cox regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox regression analysis were carried out. Based on a median risk score, patients were divided into high-risk and low-risk categories. A nomogram was created to predict the 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival (OS) of esophageal cancer patients using four platelet-related gene signatures, TNM stages, and pathological type. Additionally, the concordance index, receiver operating characteristic curve, and calibration curve were used to validate the nomogram.
RESULTS The prognosis of esophageal cancer was associated to APOOL, EP300, PLA2G6, and VAMP7 according to univariate Cox regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis. Patients with esophageal cancer at high risk had substantially shorter OS than those with cancer at low risk, according to a Kaplan-Meier analysis (P < 0.05). TNM stage (hazard ratio: 2.187, 95% confidence interval: 1.242-3.852, P = 0.007) in both univariate and multivariate Cox regression and risk score were independently correlated with OS (hazard ratio: 2.451, 95% confidence interval: 1.599-3.756, P < 0.001).
CONCLUSION A survival risk score model and independent prognostic variables for esophageal cancer have been developed using APOOL, EP300, PLA2G6, and VAMP7. OS for esophageal cancer might be predicted using the nomogram based on TNM stage, pathological type, and risk score. The nomogram demonstrated strong predictive ability, as shown by the concordance index, receiver operating characteristic curve, and calibration curve.

Abstract
The management of retinoblastoma (RB) involves the use of invasive treatment regimens. Paclitaxel (PTX), an effective antineoplastic compound used in the treatment of a wide range of malignant tumors, poses treatment challenges due to systemic toxicity, rapid elimination, and development of resistance. The goal of this work was to develop PTX-loaded, α-tocopherol succinate (αTS)-based, nanostructured lipid carrier (NLCs; αTS-PTX-NLC) and PEGylated αTS-PTX-NLC (αTS-PTX-PEG-NLC) to improve ocular bioavailability. The hot homogenization method was used to prepare the NLCs, and repeated measures ANOVA analysis was used for formulation optimization. αTS-PTX-NLC and αTS-PTX-PEG-NLC had a mean particle size, polydispersity index and zeta potential of 186.2 ± 3.9 nm, 0.17 ± 0.03, −33.2 ± 1.3 mV and 96.2 ± 3.9 nm, 0.27 ± 0.03, −39.15 ± 3.2 mV, respectively. The assay and entrapment efficiency of both formulations was >95.0%. The NLC exhibited a spherical shape, as seen from TEM images. Sterilized (autoclaved) formulations were stable for up to 60 days (last time point checked) under refrigerated conditions. PTX-NLC formulations exhibited an initial burst release and 40% drug release, overall, in 48 h. The formulations exhibited desirable physicochemical properties and could lead to an effective therapeutic option in the management of RB.

Abstract
Purpose The current investigation is on the explicit development and evaluation of nanostructured lipidic carriers (NLCs) through the oral route to overcome the inherent lacuna of chemotherapeutic drug, in which Ribociclib (RBO) was used for breast cancer to diminish the bioavailability issue. Method The RBO-NLCs were prepared using the solvent evaporation method and optimized method by the Box–Behnken design (BBD). Various assessment parameters characterized the optimized formulation and their in vivo study. Results The prepared NLCs exhibited mean particle size of 114.23 ± 2.75 nm, mean polydispersity index of 0.649 ± 0.043, and high entrapment efficiency of 87.7 ± 1.79%. The structural analysis by TEM revealed the spherical size of NLCs and uniform drug distribution. An in vitro drug release study was established through the 0.1 N HCl pH 1.2, acetate buffer pH 4.5, and phosphate buffer pH 6.8 with % cumulative drug release of 86.71 ± 8.14, 85.82 ± 4.58, and 70.98 ± 5.69%, was found respectively, compared with the RBO suspension (RBO-SUS). In vitro intestinal gut permeation studies unveiled a 1.95-fold gain in gut permeation by RBO-NLCs compared with RBO-SUS. In vitro lipolysis suggests the drug availability at the absorption site. In vitro haemolysis study suggests the compatibility of NLCs to red blood cells compared to the suspension of the pure drug. The confocal study revealed the depth of penetration of the drug into the intestine by RBO-NLCs which was enhanced compared to RBO-SUS. A cell line study was done in MCF-7 and significantly reduced the IC50 value compared to the pure drug. The in vivo parameters suggested the enhanced bioavailability by 3.54 times of RBO-NLCs as compared to RBO-SUS. Conclusion The in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo results showed a prominent potential for bioavailability enhancement of RBO and effective breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy can effectively inhibit cancer progression by activating the autoimmune system, with low toxicity and high effectiveness. Some of cancer immunotherapy had positive effects on clinical cancer treatment. However, cancer immunotherapy is still restricted by cancer heterogeneity, immune cell disability, tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment and systemic immune toxicity. Cell membrane-coated nanoparticles (CMCNs) inherit abundant source cell-relevant functions, including “self” markers, cross-talking with the immune system, biological targeting, and homing to specific regions. These enable them to possess preferred characteristics, including better biological compatibility, weak immunogenicity, immune escaping, a prolonged circulation, and tumor targeting. Therefore, they are applied to precisely deliver drugs and promote the effect of cancer immunotherapy. In the review, we summarize the latest researches of biomimetic CMCNs for cancer immunotherapy, outline the existing specific cancer immune therapies, explore the unique functions and molecular mechanisms of various cell membrane-coated nanoparticles, and analyze the challenges which CMCNs face in clinical translation.

Abstract
Drugs are referred to as drug nanocrystals when they exist as nanoscale crystal structures. This kind of nanocarrier has been widely utilized to increase the solubility and absorption for poorly aqueous soluble drugs after oral administration, or prolong the drug circulation when intravenous administration. The systemic cytotoxicity caused by antitumor drugs usually come from the nonspecific drug distribution. To solve the disadvantage of poor targetability, drug nanocrystals for tumor targeted delivery have been developed in recent years. In this review, the targeting mechanisms of various surface modified drug nanocrystals are introduced with the focus on passive targeting, active targeting and stimuli-responsive targeting in details. Function and application of common surface modified materials are also discussed.

Cancer cell membrane-coated nanoparticles for bimodal imaging-guided photothermal therapy and docetaxel-enhanced immunotherapy against cancer. J Nanobiotechnology 2021; 19:449. [PMID: 34952587 PMCID: PMC8710014 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-021-01202-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2021] [Accepted: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mono-therapeutic modality has limitations in combating metastatic lesions with complications. Although emerging immunotherapy exhibits preliminary success, solid tumors are usually immunosuppressive, leading to ineffective antitumor immune responses and immunotherapeutic resistance. The rational combination of several therapeutic modalities may potentially become a new therapeutic strategy to effectively combat cancer. RESULTS Poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA, 50 mg) nanospheres were constructed with photothermal transduction agents (PTAs)-Prussian blue (PB, 2.98 mg) encapsulated in the core and chemotherapeutic docetaxel (DTX, 4.18 mg)/ immune adjuvant-imiquimod (R837, 1.57 mg) loaded in the shell. Tumor cell membranes were further coated outside PLGA nanospheres (designated "M@P-PDR"), which acted as "Nano-targeted cells" to actively accumulate in tumor sites, and were guided/monitored by photoacoustic (PA)/ magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Upon laser irradiation, photothermal effects were triggered. Combined with DTX, PTT induced in situ tumor eradication. Assisted by the immune adjuvant R837, the maturation rate of DCs increased by 4.34-fold compared with that of the control. In addition, DTX polarized M2-phenotype tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) to M1-phenotype, relieving the immunosuppressive TME. The proportion of M2-TAMs decreased from 68.57% to 32.80%, and the proportion of M1-TAMs increased from 37.02% to 70.81%. Integrating the above processes, the infiltration of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) increased from 17.33% (control) to 35.5%. Primary tumors and metastasis were significantly inhibited when treated with "Nano-targeted cells"-based cocktail therapy. CONCLUSION "Nano-targeted cells"-based therapeutic cocktail therapy is a promising approach to promote tumor regression and counter metastasis/recurrence.

Antineoplastics Encapsulated in Nanostructured Lipid Carriers. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26226929.

Abstract
Ideally, antineoplastic treatment aims to selectively eradicate cancer cells without causing systemic toxicity. A great number of antineoplastic agents (AAs) are available nowadays, with well-defined therapeutic protocols. The poor bioavailability, non-selective action, high systemic toxicity, and lack of effectiveness of most AAs have stimulated the search for novel chemotherapy protocols, including technological approaches that provide drug delivery systems (DDS) for gold standard medicines. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) are DDS that contain a core of solid and lipid liquids stabilised by surfactants. NLC have high upload capacity for lipophilic drugs, such as the majority of AAs. These nanoparticles can be prepared with a diversity of biocompatible (synthetic or natural) lipid blends, administered by different routes and functionalised for targeting purposes. This review focused on the research carried out from 2000 to now, regarding NLC formulations for AAs (antimetabolites, antimitotics, alkylating agents, and antibiotics) encapsulation, with special emphasis on studies carried out in vivo. NLC systems for codelivery of AAs were also considered, as well as those for non-classical drugs and therapies (natural products and photosensitisers). NLC have emerged as powerful DDS to improve the bioavailability, targeting and efficacy of antineoplastics, while decreasing their toxic effect in the treatment of different types of cancer.

Abstract
Biomimetic strategies are useful for designing potent vaccines. Decorating a nanoparticulate adjuvant with cell membrane fragments as the antigen-presenting source exemplifies, such as a promising strategy. For translation, a standardizable, consistent, and scalable approach for coating nanoadjuvant with the cell membrane is important. Here a turbulent mixing and self-assembly method called flash nanocomplexation (FNC) for producing cell membrane-coated nanovaccines in a scalable manner is demonstrated. The broad applicability of this FNC technique compared with bulk-sonication by using ten different core materials and multiple cell membrane types is shown. FNC-produced biomimetic nanoparticles have promising colloidal stability and narrow particle polydispersity, indicating an equal or more homogeneous coating compared to the bulk-sonication method. The potency of a nanovaccine comprised of B16-F10 cancer cell membrane decorating mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with the adjuvant CpG is then demonstrated. The FNC-fabricated nanovaccines when combined with anti-CTLA-4 show potency in lymph node targeting, DC antigen presentation, and T cell immune activation, leading to prophylactic and therapeutic efficacy in a melanoma mouse model. This study advances the design of a biomimetic nanovaccine enabled by a robust and versatile nanomanufacturing technique.

Abstract
The application of nanoparticles in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases has undergone different developmental stages, but phagocytosis and nonspecific distribution have been the main factors restricting the transformation of nanobased drugs into clinical practice. In the past decade, the design of membrane-coated nanoparticles has gained increasing attention. It is hoped that the combination of the cell membrane's natural biological properties and the functional integration of synthetic nanoparticle systems can compensate for the shortage of traditional nanoparticles. The membrane coating gives the nanoparticles unique biological functions such as immune evasion and targeting capability. However, when the encapsulation of monotypic membranes does not meet the diverse demands of biomedicine, the combination of different cell membranes may offer more possibilities. In this review, the composition, preparation, and advantages of biomimetic nanoparticles coated with hybrid cell membranes are summarized, and the applications of hybrid membrane-coated biomimetic nanoparticles (HM@BNPs) in drug delivery, phototherapy, liquid biopsy, tumor vaccines, immune therapy, and detoxification are reviewed. Finally, the current challenges and opportunities with regard to HM@BNPs are discussed.

Abstract
Nanotechnology provides synthetic carriers for cancer drug delivery that protect cargos from degradation, control drug release and increase local accumulation at tumors. However, these non-natural vehicles display poor tumor targeting and potential toxicity and are eliminated by the immune system. Recently, biomimetic nanocarriers have been widely developed based on the concept of ‘mimicking nature.’ Among them, cell-derived biomimetic vehicles have become the focus of bionics research because of their multiple natural functions, such as low immunogenicity, long circulation time and targeting ability. Cell membrane-coated carriers and extracellular vesicles are two widely used cell-based biomimetic materials. Here, this review summarizes the latest progress in the application of these two biomimetic carriers in targeted cancer therapy. Their properties and performance are compared, and their future challenges and development prospects are discussed.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to identify from a review of current literature the effects of lipids used in the development of Nanostructured Lipid Carriers (NLCs) on the physicochemical properties of the resulting formulation. The size of the solid lipid, affected by the molecular weight and the complexity of the structure, tends to affect the particle size of the final formulation proportionally; the higher the molecular weight and the more complex the molecular structure, the bigger the particle size of the NLCs. However, there is no straight correlation between the size and the structure of the liquid lipid and the particle size. Moreover, there seems to be a correlation of the solid to liquid lipid ratio which affects the particle size; there has been a trend of increasing particle size when more solid lipid was used. Regarding the entrapment efficiency, it is highly affected by the drug and its interaction with the lipids, as its solubility in the lipids needs to be high so the drug can stay entrapped within the lipid core. There was no direct correlation between the type of lipid used or the ratio and the zeta potential, which affects the stability of the NLCs.

Abstract
Cell membrane coating strategy is one of the promising techniques for biomimetic functionalization of nanoparticle. The biomimetic nanoparticles camouflage themselves utilizing the fundamental properties of native cells. Cell membranes are extracted from various cells to cloak the nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery. Platelet membrane is one such cell membrane proposing itself as a potential camouflager to escape the immune surveillance and aid prolonged blood circulation with minimum systemic cytotoxicity. Platelets play a very important role in the physiological functions of the body and also feature in few pathological disorders like cancer, atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. This review comprises of preparation and characterization of platelet membrane camouflaged nanoparticles and also focuses on their recent developments towards targeted therapy in cancer, immune diseases, atherosclerosis and phototherapy. Although platelet membrane camouflaged nanoparticles are currently in the preliminary stage of development, there is huge potential to explore this biodegradable and biocompatible delivery system.

Abstract
Etodolac (ETD), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, exhibits antinflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic activity. The main type of ETD administration is oral route, which is associated with significant systemic side effects. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC), a modern lipid formulation, are non-toxic, biocompatible, can improve the solubility and stability of drugs. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) containing etodolac were prepared by a melt-emulsification and ultrasonication technique. Full factorial design (FFD) was applied to optimize the composition of NLC and their properties such as zeta potential, polidyspersity index, and entrapment efficiency. Formulations consisting of Capryol 90, glicerol monostearate, and Tween 20 displayed particle size below 300 nm, encapsulated drug with efficiency of approximately 87% and prolonged drug release up to 24 h. Stable formulations displayed moderately negative surface charge suggesting their limited ability to interact with skin surface but simultaneously presenting their lower risk to cause cell-membrane disruption. In fact, cytotoxicity assessment using human dermal fibroblasts and human epidermal keratinocytes revealed that etodolac-loaded NLC had no important impact on skin cells viability evaluated in vitro, which might evidence that NLC formulations are safe for dermal delivery. The studies developed were relatively fast and simple, requiring no specialized equipment method to prepare NLC as ETD carriers ensuring better solubility and prolonged drug release.

Abstract
Platelets possess distinct surface moieties responsible for modulating their adhesion to various disease-relevant substrates involving vascular damage, immune evasion, and pathogen interactions. Such broad biointerfacing capabilities of platelets have inspired the development of platelet-mimicking drug carriers that preferentially target drug payloads to disease sites for enhanced therapeutic efficacy. Among these carriers, platelet membrane-coated nanoparticles (denoted 'PNPs') made by cloaking synthetic substrates with the plasma membrane of platelets have emerged recently. Their 'top-down' design combines the functionalities of natural platelet membrane and the engineering flexibility of synthetic nanomaterials, which together create synergy for effective drug delivery and novel therapeutics. Herein, we review the recent progress of engineering PNPs with different structures for targeted drug delivery, focusing on three areas, including targeting injured blood vessels to treat vascular diseases, targeting cancer cells for cancer treatment and detection, and targeting drug-resistant bacteria to treat infectious diseases. Overall, current studies have established PNPs as versatile nanotherapeutics for drug targeting with strong potentials to improve the treatment of various diseases.

Docetaxel (DTX) has clinical efficacy in the treatment of breast cancer, but it is difficult to develop a product for oral administration, due to low solubility and permeability. This study focused on preparing a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SME) loaded with DTX-phospholipid complex (DTX@PLC), to improve the dissolution and gastrointestinal (GI) permeability of DTX. A dual technique combining the phospholipid complexation and SME formulation described as improving upon the disadvantages of DTX has been proposed. We hypothesized that the complexation of DTX with phospholipids can improve the lipophilicity of DTX, thereby increasing the affinity of the drug to the cell lipid membrane, and simultaneously improving permeability through the GI barrier. Meanwhile, DTX@PLC-loaded SME (DTX@PLC-SME) increases the dissolution and surface area of DTX by forming a microemulsion in the intestinal fluid, providing sufficient opportunity for the drug to contact the GI membrane. First, we prepared DTX@PLC-SME by combining dual technologies, which are advantages for oral absorption. Next, we optimized DTX@PLC-SME with nanosized droplets (117.1 nm), low precipitation (8.9%), and high solubility (33.0 mg/g), which formed a homogeneous microemulsion in the aqueous phase. Dissolution and cellular uptake studies demonstrated that DTX@PLC-SME showed 5.6-fold higher dissolution and 2.3-fold higher DTX uptake in Caco-2 cells than raw material. In addition, an ex vivo gut sac study confirmed that DTX@PLC-SME improved GI permeability of DTX by 2.6-fold compared to raw material. These results suggested that DTX@PLC-SME can significantly overcome the disadvantages of anticancer agents, such as low solubility and permeability.

Nanostructured Lipid Carriers for Delivery of Chemotherapeutics: A Review. Pharmaceutics 2020; 12:pharmaceutics12030288. [PMID: 32210127 PMCID: PMC7151211 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics12030288] [Citation(s) in RCA: 190] [Impact Index Per Article: 47.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2020] [Revised: 03/07/2020] [Accepted: 03/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The efficacy of current standard chemotherapy is suboptimal due to the poor solubility and short half-lives of chemotherapeutic agents, as well as their high toxicity and lack of specificity which may result in severe side effects, noncompliance and patient inconvenience. The application of nanotechnology has revolutionized the pharmaceutical industry and attracted increasing attention as a significant means for optimizing the delivery of chemotherapeutic agents and enhancing their efficiency and safety profiles. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) are lipid-based formulations that have been broadly studied as drug delivery systems. They have a solid matrix at room temperature and are considered superior to many other traditional lipid-based nanocarriers such as nanoemulsions, liposomes and solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) due to their enhanced physical stability, improved drug loading capacity, and biocompatibility. This review focuses on the latest advances in the use of NLCs as drug delivery systems and their preparation and characterization techniques with special emphasis on their applications as delivery systems for chemotherapeutic agents and different strategies for their use in tumor targeting.

Abstract
The translocation of natural cell membranes to the surface of synthetic nanoparticles, which allows man-made vectors to share merits and functionalities created by nature, has been a hot subject of research in the past decade. The resulting biomimetic nanoparticles not only retain the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials, but also inherit the advantageous functions of source cells. Combined with the preponderances of both synthetic and natural platforms, the optimized biomimetic systems can maximize the drug delivery efficiency. In this review, we first summarize the preparation strategies of the biomimetic systems from the perspective of the correlation between the properties of nanoparticles and cell membranes. Six types of cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles are further introduced with an emphasis on their properties and performance. Finally, a concluding remark regarding the primary challenges and opportunities associated with these nanoparticles is presented. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Translocation of natural cell membranes to the surface of synthetic nanoparticles has been repeatedly highlighted in the past decade to endow man-made vectors with merits and functionalities created by nature; therefore, the resulting biomimetic systems not only retain the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials but also inherit the biological functions of source cells for efficient drug delivery. To provide a timely review on this hot and rapidly developing subject of research, this paper summarized recent progress on the cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles as drug carriers for cancer therapy, and focused primarily on six different types of cell membrane-coated nanoparticles with an emphasis on the preparation strategies from the perspective of the correlation between the properties of nanoparticles and cell membrane.

Effect of Ticagrelor, a Cytochrome P450 3A4 Inhibitor, on the Pharmacokinetics of Tadalafil in Rats. Pharmaceutics 2019; 11:pharmaceutics11070354. [PMID: 31330787 PMCID: PMC6680770 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics11070354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2019] [Revised: 07/15/2019] [Accepted: 07/17/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Tadalafil is a cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 substrate. Because there are few data on drug-drug interactions, it is advisable to take sufficient consideration when co-administering tadalafil with CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors. This study was conducted to assess the effect of ticagrelor, a CYP3A4 inhibitor, on the pharmacokinetic properties of tadalafil after oral administration to rats. A total of 20 Sprague–Dawley male rats were randomly divided into the non-pretreated group and ticagrelor-pretreated group, and tadalafil was orally administered to each group after pretreatment with or without ticagrelor. Blood samples were collected at predetermined time points after oral administration of tadalafil. As a result, systemic exposure of tadalafil in the ticagrelor-pretreated group was significantly increased compared to the non-pretreated group (1.61-fold), and the clearance of tadalafil in the ticagrelor-pretreated group was significantly reduced than the non-pretreated group (37%). The prediction of the drug profile through the one-compartment model could explain the differences of pharmacokinetic properties of tadalafil in the non-pretreated and ticagrelor-pretreated groups. This study suggests that ticagrelor reduces a CYP3A-mediated tadalafil metabolism and that tadalafil and a combination regimen with tadalafil and ticagrelor requires dose control and specific pharmacotherapy.
