Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) often exhibits a propensity for metastasis to lymph nodes (LNs), significantly influencing prognosis. Neck dissection (ND) is an important part in the treatment of OSCC. Variations in the preference for and pathways of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in different regions of the oral cavity have been observed. Currently, there is a lack of sufficient emphasis on the anatomical perspectives of LNM and ND. This review elucidates the lymphatic system of the maxillofacial regions from an anatomical standpoint, details the distribution of the sentinel LNs across different subsites, and summarizes the various classifications of the cervical LNs. Additionally, we elaborate on the methods used to study the lymphatic system, particularly imaging techniques. Furthermore, we investigate the pathways of cervical LNM and evaluate the efficacy of ND from an anatomical viewpoint. The overall objective of this review is to provide essential anatomical knowledge for managing LNs in OSCC, in the hope of providing patients with effective treatment modalities to enhance their quality of life.

Abstract
Infectious and inflammatory diseases are one of the leading causes of death globally. The status quo has become more prominent with the onset of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. To combat these potential crises, proteins have been proven as highly efficacious drugs, drug targets, and biomarkers. On the other hand, advancements in nanotechnology have aided efficient and sustained drug delivery due to their nano-dimension-acquired advantages. Combining both strategies together, the protein nanoplatforms are equipped with the advantageous intrinsic properties of proteins as well as nanoformulations, eloquently changing the field of nanomedicine. Proteins can act as carriers, therapeutics, diagnostics, and theranostics in their nanoform as fusion proteins or as composites with other organic/inorganic materials. Protein-based nanoplatforms have been extensively explored to target the major infectious and inflammatory diseases of clinical concern. The current review comprehensively deliberated proteins as nanocarriers for drugs and nanotherapeutics for inflammatory and infectious agents, with special emphasis on cancer and viral diseases. A plethora of proteins from diverse organisms have aided in the synthesis of protein-based nanoformulations. The current study specifically presented the proteins of human and pathogenic origin to dwell upon the field of protein nanotechnology, emphasizing their pharmacological advantages. Further, the successful clinical translation and current bottlenecks of the protein-based nanoformulations associated with the infection-inflammation paradigm have also been discussed comprehensively. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This review discusses the plethora of promising protein-based nanocarriers and nanotherapeutics explored for infectious and inflammatory ailments, with particular emphasis on protein nanoparticles of human and pathogenic origin with reference to the advantages, ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion parameters), and current bottlenecks in development of protein-based nanotherapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common human malignancy with an estimated incidence of around 377,713 new cases worldwide in 2020. Despite the advance in clinical management, some of OSCC patients still miss the opportunity of completable resection of tumor, and have to accept medical therapies, e.g., chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy when the disease develops into the advanced stage. However, these therapies have been reported to be far from ideal due to the low efficiency of conventional delivery approaches. To obtain a better therapeutic effect, considerable attempts have been made toward to develop an effective drug delivery system (DDS). Nanoparticles (NPs) including inorganic NPs, polymer NPs, lipid NP, extracellular vesicles and cell membrane-based NPs have been evaluated as the better DDS candidates that can specifically accumulate in the tumor microenvironment along with a large amount of blood vessels. Emerging evidence suggested that NPs formulated with anticancer drugs including chemotherapeutic drugs, radiotherapy and immunotarget antibodies could remarkably improve the release and increase concentration of these drugs at the tumor site and show a better therapeutic efficacy, suggesting that NPs might serve as promising DDSs in the treatment of OSCC. Therefore, we have conducted this review to summarize recent progression and current status of diverse NPs as DDSs in this research field.

Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14133176. [PMID: 35804948 PMCID: PMC9265071 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14133176] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Revised: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Squamous cell carcinoma is the most typical malignant tumor of the oral cavity (OSCC) and surgery, including tumor resection and neck dissection with an appropriate reconstruction, remains the first line of treatment. Postoperative complications delay the healing process, and can have negative consequences for the patient. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of intraoperative fluid administration on developing postoperative delirium, and to identify other parameters leading to an increased risk of delirium. Abstract Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a malignant tumor derived from squamous cells and can be found in different localizations. In the oral cavity especially, it represents the most common type of malignant tumor. First-line therapy for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is surgery, including tumor resection, neck dissection, and maybe reconstruction. Although perioperative mortality is low, complications such as delirium are very common, and may have long-lasting consequences on the patient’s quality of life. This study examines if excessive fluid administration, among other parameters, is an aggravating factor for the development of postoperative delirium. A total of 198 patients were divided into groups concerning the reconstruction technique used: group A for primary wound closure or reconstruction with a local flap, and group B for microsurgical reconstruction. The patients with and without delirium in both groups were compared regarding intraoperative fluid administration, fluid balance, and other parameters, such as blood loss, duration of surgery and overall ventilation, alcohol consumption, and creatinine, albumin, natrium, and hematocrit levels. The logistic regression for group A shows that fluid intake (p = 0.02, OR = 5.27, 95% CI 1.27–21.8) and albumin levels (p = 0.036, OR = 0.22, CI 0.054–0.908) are independent predictors for the development of delirium. For group B, gender (p = 0.026, OR = 0.34, CI 0.133–0.879) with a protective effect for females, fluid intake (p = 0.003, OR = 3.975, CI 1.606–9.839), and duration of ventilation (p = 0.025, OR = 1.178, CI 1.021–1.359) are also independent predictors for delirium. An intake of more than 3000 mL for group A, and 4150 mL for group B, increases the risk of delirium by approximately five and four times, respectively. Fluid management should be considered carefully in patients with OSCC, in order to reduce the occurrence of postoperative delirium. Different factors may become significant for the development of delirium regarding different surgical procedures.

Mucoadhesive Nanocarriers as a Promising Strategy to Enhance Intracellular Delivery against Oral Cavity Carcinoma. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14040795.

Abstract
Oral cancer, particularly squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), has posed a grave challenge to global health due to its high incidence, metastasis, and mortality rates. Despite numerous studies and favorable improvements in the therapeutic strategies over the past few decades, the prognosis of this disease remains dismal. Moreover, several drawbacks are associated with the conventional treatment; including permanent disfigurement and physical impairment that are attributed to surgical intervention, and systemic toxicity that results from aggressive radio- or chemotherapies, which impacts patients’ prognosis and post-treatment quality of life. The highly vascularized, non-keratinized oral mucosa appears as a potential route for cytotoxic drug administration in treating oral cancer. It acts as a non-invasive portal for drug entry targeting the local oral lesions of the early stages of cancer and the systemic metastasis sites of advanced cancer. The absorption of the poorly aqueous-soluble anti-cancer drugs can be enhanced due to the increased permeability of the ulcerous mucosa lining in the disease state and by bypassing the hepatic first-pass metabolism. However, some challenges in oral transmucosal drug delivery include the drugs’ taste, the limited surface area of the membrane lining the oral cavity, and flushing and enzymatic degradation by saliva. Therefore, mucoadhesive nanocarriers have emerged as promising platforms for controlled, targeted drug delivery in the oral cavity. The surface functionalization of nanocarriers with various moieties allows for drug targeting, bioavailability enhancement, and biodistribution at the site of action, while the mucoadhesive feature prolongs the drug’s residence time for preferential accumulation to optimize the therapeutic effect and reduce systemic toxicity. This review has been focused to highlight the potential of various nanocarriers (e.g., nanoparticles, nanoemulsions, nanocapsules, and liposomes) in conferring targeting, solubility and bioavailability enhancement of actives and mucoadhesive properties as novel tumor-targeted drug delivery approaches in oral cancer treatment.

Abstract
Biomimetic nanotechnology through camouflaging synthetic nanoparticles (NPs) with natural cell membranes, which bestows with immune evasion and superior targeting capacity, has been extensively used in drug delivery systems (DDS) over the last decades. These biomimetic NPs not only retain the physicochemical features of the synthetic vehicles but also inherit the cell membranes' intrinsic functionalities. Combined with these benefits, optimized nano-biomimetic DDS allow maximum delivery efficacy. Compared to erythrocyte/cancer single cell membrane, the hybrid cell membrane expressing CD47 membrane protein and self-recognition molecules, from erythrocytes and cancer cells, provides remarkable features to the synthetic vehicles, such as immune evasion, long-term circulation, and homotypic targeting. In this review, we describe the preparation strategies, the camouflaging mechanism, and the antitumor applications of hybrid cell membrane-camouflaged NPs. Moreover, we discuss further modification of the hybrid cell membrane and the surface properties of fusion cellular membranes. Finally, we summarize the primary challenges and opportunities associated with these NPs. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Camouflaging synthetic nanoparticles with hybrid cell membrane has been extensively highlighted in recent years. The resultant biomimetic nanoparticles not only reserve the physicochemical properties of the synthetic nanoparticles but also inherit the biological functions of source cells. Compared with single cell membrane, hybrid cell membrane can endow synthetic nanoparticles with multiple biofunctions derived from the original source cells. To provide a timely review of this rapidly developing subject of research, this paper summarized recent progress on the hybrid cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles as drug delivery systems for cancer diagnosis and treatment. In this review, we focused primarily on five different types of hybrid cell membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles with the preparation strategies, the camouflaging mechanism, and the antitumor applications. Moreover, further modification of the hybrid cell membrane was also discussed for isolating effectively circulating tumor cells.
