Targeted delivery of bee venom to A549 lung cancer cells by PEGylate liposomal formulation: an apoptotic investigation. Sci Rep 2024; 14:17302. [PMID: 39068207 PMCID: PMC11283506 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-68156-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
This study focused on developing an optimal formulation of liposomes loaded with bee venom (BV) and coated with PEG (BV-Lipo-PEG). The liposomes were characterized using dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Among the liposomal formulations, F3 exhibited the narrowest size distribution with a low PDI value of 193.72 ± 7.35, indicating minimal agglomeration-related issues and a more uniform size distribution. BV-Lipo-PEG demonstrated remarkable stability over 3 months when stored at 4 °C. Furthermore, the release of the drug from the liposomal formulations was found to be pH-dependent. Moreover, BV-Lipo-PEG exhibited favorable entrapment efficiencies, with values reaching 96.74 ± 1.49. The anticancer potential of the liposomal nanocarriers was evaluated through MTT assay, flow cytometry, cell cycle analysis, and real-time experiments. The functionalization of the liposomal system enhanced endocytosis. The IC50 value of BV-Lipo-PEG showed a notable decrease compared to both the free drug and BV-Lipo alone, signifying that BV-Lipo-PEG is more effective in inducing cell death in A549 cell lines. BV-Lipo-PEG exhibited a higher apoptotic rate in A549 cell lines compared to other samples. In A549 cell lines treated with BV-Lipo-PEG, the expression levels of MMP-2, MMP-9, and Cyclin E genes decreased, whereas the expression levels of Caspase3 and Caspase9 increased. These findings suggest that delivering BV via PEGylated liposomes holds significant promise for the treatment of lung cancer.

J Liposome Res 2024:1-26. [PMID: 38520185 DOI: 10.1080/08982104.2024.2325963] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Triple-negative breast Cancer (TNBC) is one of the deadliest types, making up about 20% of all breast cancers. Chemotherapy is the traditional manner of progressed TNBC treatment; however, it has a short-term result with a high reversibility pace. The lack of targeted treatment limited and person-dependent treatment options for those suffering from TNBC cautions to be the worst type of cancer among breast cancer patients. Consequently, appropriate treatment for this disease is considered a major clinical challenge. Therefore, various treatment methods have been developed to treat TNBC, among which chemotherapy is the most common and well-known approach recently studied. Although effective methods are chemotherapies, they are often accompanied by critical limitations, especially the lack of specific functionality. These methods lead to systematic toxicity and, ultimately, the expansion of multidrug-resistant (MDR) cancer cells. Therefore, finding novel and efficient techniques to enhance the targeting of TNBC treatment is an essential requirement. Liposomes have demonstrated that they are an effective method for drug delivery; however, among a large number of liposome-based drug delivery systems annually developed, a small number have just received authorization for clinical application. The new approaches to using liposomes target their structure with various ligands to increase therapeutic efficiency and diminish undesired side effects on various body tissues. The current study describes the most recent strategies and research associated with functionalizing the liposomes' structure with different ligands as targeted drug carriers in treating TNBCs in preclinical and clinical stages.

Abstract
Nanocarriers have emerged as a promising class of nanoscale materials in the fields of drug delivery and biomedical applications. Their unique properties, such as high surface area- tovolume ratios and enhanced permeability and retention effects, enable targeted delivery of therapeutic agents to specific tissues or cells. However, the inherent instability of nanocarriers poses significant challenges to their successful application. This review highlights the importance of nanocarrier stability in biomedical applications and its impact on biocompatibility, targeted drug delivery, long shelf life, drug delivery performance, therapeutic efficacy, reduced side effects, prolonged circulation time, and targeted delivery. Enhancing nanocarrier stability requires careful design, engineering, and optimization of physical and chemical parameters. Various strategies and cutting-edge techniques employed to improve nanocarrier stability are explored, with a focus on their applications in drug delivery. By understanding the advances and challenges in nanocarrier stability, this review aims to contribute to the development and implementation of nanocarrier- based therapies in clinical settings, advancing the field of nanomedicine.

Zou J. Site-specific delivery of cisplatin and paclitaxel mediated by liposomes: A promising approach in cancer chemotherapy. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 238:117111. [PMID: 37734579 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.117111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2023] [Revised: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/23/2023]
Abstract
The site-specific delivery of drugs, especially anti-cancer drugs has been an interesting field for researchers and the reason is low accumulation of cytotoxic drugs in cancer cells. Although combination cancer therapy has been beneficial in providing cancer drug sensitivity, targeted delivery of drugs appears to be more efficient. One of the safe, biocompatible and efficient nano-scale delivery systems in anti-cancer drug delivery is liposomes. Their particle size is small and they have other properties such as adjustable physico-chemical properties, ease of functionalization and high entrapment efficiency. Cisplatin is a chemotherapy drug with clinical approval in patients, but its accumulation in cancer cells is low due to lack of targeted delivery and repeated administration results in resistance development. Gene and drug co-administration along with cisplatin/paclitaxel have resulted in increased sensitivity in tumor cells, but there is still space for more progress in cancer therapy. The delivery of cisplatin/paclitaxel by liposomes increases accumulation of drug in tumor cells and impairs activity of efflux pumps in promoting cytotoxicity. Moreover, phototherapy along with cisplatin/paclitaxel delivery can increase potential in tumor suppression. Smart nanoparticles including pH-sensitive nanoparticles provide site-specific delivery of cisplatin/paclitaxel. The functionalization of liposomes can be performed by ligands to increase targetability towards tumor cells in mediating site-specific delivery of cisplatin/paclitaxel. Finally, liposomes can mediate co-delivery of cisplatin/paclitaxel with drugs or genes in potentiating tumor suppression. Since drug resistance has caused therapy failure in cancer patients, and cisplatin/paclitaxel are among popular chemotherapy drugs, delivery of these drugs mediates targeted suppression of cancers and prevents development of drug resistance. Because of biocompatibility and safety of liposomes, they are currently used in clinical trials for treatment of cancer patients. In future, the optimal dose of using liposomes and optimal concentration of loading cisplatin/paclitaxel on liposomal nanocarriers in clinical trials should be determined.

Tian H, Zhao F, Qi QR, Yue BS, Zhai BT. Targeted drug delivery systems for elemene in cancer therapy: The story thus far. Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 166:115331.

Abstract
Elemene (ELE) is a group of broad-spectrum anticancer active ingredients with low toxicity extracted from traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs), such as Curcumae Rhizoma and Curcuma Radix, which can exert antitumour activities by regulating various signal pathways and targets. However, the strong hydrophobicity, short half-life, low bioavailability and weak in vivo targeting ability of ELE restrict its use. Targeted drug delivery systems based on nanomaterials are among the most viable methods to overcome these shortcomings. In this review, we first summarize recent studies on the clinical uses of ELE as an adjunct antitumour drug. ELE-based combination strategies have great promise for enhancing efficacy, reducing adverse reactions, and improving patients' quality of life and immune function. Second, we summarize recent studies on the antitumour mechanisms of ELE and ELE-based combination strategies. The potential mechanisms include inducing pyroptosis and ferroptosis, promoting senescence, regulating METTL3-mediated m6A modification, suppressing the Warburg effect, and inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Most importantly, we comprehensively summarize studies on the combination of targeted drug delivery systems with ELE, including passively and actively targeted drug delivery systems, stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems, and codelivery systems for ELE combined with other therapies, which have great promise in improving drug bioavailability, increasing drug targeting ability, controlling drug release, enhancing drug efficacy, reducing drug adverse effects and reversing MDR. Our summary will provide a reference for the combination of TCMs such as ELE with advanced targeted drug delivery systems in the future.

Abstract
As one of the newest generations of nanoplatforms, smart nanotheranostics have attracted signifivant attentions for medical applications, especially in oncology and cancer treatment. Indeed, their capability to provide treatment and diagnosis simultaneously leads to reduce time and side effects along with improving the performance. This study aims to introduce a novel smart nano-platform composed of doxorubicin-loaded pH-responsive stealth niosomes containing CdSe/ZnS Quantum dots as an imaging agent. Drug loaded nano-platform was fabricated via thin-film hydration method and then evaluated using different physicochemical tests. The entrapment efficiency and release profile of doxorubicin were assessed at three different pH (4, 6.5, and 7.4). Biological features and imaging ability of the nanoparticles were also evaluated by MTT assay, apoptosis assay, and fluorescence microscopy. Results showed that the fabricated nanoparticles were round-shaped, with a mean size of about 100±10 nm, -2 mV surface charge, and about 87% entrapment efficiency. The drug release profile presented a pH-responsive behavior (80, 60, and 40% drug release in pH 4, 6.5, and 7.4, respectively). The bio-activity assessments showed nearly 55% cytotoxicity effects via inducing cell apoptosis. Besides, the uptake of samples by the cells was confirmed through fluorescence imaging. Based on the results, this new nanoformulation could be considered as a candidate for future cancer theranostic applications.

Abstract
Responsive nanoparticle delivery systems hold great potential for next-generation chemotherapeutic treatment with reduced off-target side effects. In this work, we formulated responsive lipid-based cubosomes loaded with paclitaxel (PTX) as a model drug and stabilised by novel amphiphilic block copolymers (ABCs) containing the pH-responsive poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) and/or the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-responsive poly(4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)benzyl acrylate) (PTBA) blocks. The results showed that these cubosomes with a particle size of around 250 nm exhibited excellent PTX encapsulation efficiency of up to 60% and had the ability to control the release rate of the drug in response to pH and H2O2 changes. Specifically, compared to the physiological pH of 7.4, PTX was released faster from the cubosome carriers when exposed to pH 5.5 and/or 50 mM H2O2 conditions, which are pathological conditions found in a tumour microenvironment. In vitro cytotoxicity and cell uptake studies further investigated the cellular interactions of these cubosomes. It was found that cubosomes containing PTX had more toxic effects than the control free PTX sample. Compared to cubosomes stabilised by the non-responsive block copolymer Pluronic® F127, the ABC-stabilised cubosomes also had higher cell internalisation efficiency demonstrated by the cytoplasmic fluorescence intensities using confocal microscopy. These results demonstrated that ABCs containing responsive moieties can stabilise lipid cubosomes and enhance controlled release of poorly soluble chemotherapeutics and cellular uptake.

Abstract
The study aimed to develop folate decorated lipid chitosan hybrid nanoparticles for targeted delivery of 5-fluorouracil in colon cancer by utilizing the overexpressed folate receptors on the surface of HT-29 and HCT 116 cancer cell lines. The developed formulations were prepared by the ionic gelation method with slight modifications. The developed formulations exhibited spherical morphology, smaller particle size (158 to 225 nm), zeta potential (32.24 to 35.95 mV), PDI (0.19 to 0.35), and high encapsulation efficiency (85.3 % to 94.2 %) with optimal physicochemical characteristics. The in vitro release showed a biphasic release pattern with an initial burst release followed by a sustained release for 48 h. Moreover, the in vitro cell line study revealed that FA-CLPN-2 exhibited an enhanced cellular uptake and greater cytotoxic effect in HT-29 and HCT 116 cell lines compared to non-targeted CLPN-2 and free drug solution due to the folate receptor facilitated endocytosis process. The in vivo toxicity study revealed the safety and biocompatibility of the developed formulations in biological systems. The stability study demonstrates the stability of the developed formulations. Overall, these results suggest that the folate decorated lipid chitosan hybrid nanoparticles could be used as a potential delivery system for tumor-targeted therapy with reduced side effects.

Abstract
This study was designed to improve oral bioavailability of the methotrexate (MTX) by sustaining its release profile and integration into core-shell polymeric nanoparticles. The self-micellization and ionotropic gelation technique was employed which resulted into spherical shaped nanoparticles (181-417 nm) with encapsulation efficiency of 80.14% to 85.54%. Furthermore, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Differential Scanning Calorimetry analyses were carried out to investigate physicochemical and thermal stability of the produced engineered core shell nanoparticles of the methotrexate. . Entrapment of drug in polymeric core was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. In-vitro sustained release behavior of nanoparticles was observed at pH 6.8 for 48 h while low drug release was observed at pH 1.2 due to pH-responsive nature of Pluronic F127. Acute toxicity study confirmed safety and biocompatible profile of nanoparticles. MTX loaded polymeric nanoparticles ameliorated the pharmacokinetic profile (8 folds greater half-life, 6.26 folds higher AUC0-t and 3.48 folds higher mean residence time). In vivo study conducted in rat model depicted the improved therapeutic efficacy and healing of arthritis through MTX loaded polymeric nanoparticles, preferentially attributable to high accretion of MTX in the inflamed site. In conclusion, MTX loaded polymeric nanoparticles is an attractive drug delivery strategy for an effective management and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
