Mim JJ, Hasan M, Chowdhury MS, Ghosh J, Mobarak MH, Khanom F, Hossain N. A comprehensive review on the biomedical frontiers of nanowire applications. Heliyon 2024; 10:e29244. [PMID: 38628721 PMCID: PMC11016983 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e29244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2024] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
This comprehensive review examines the immense capacity of nanowires, nanostructures characterized by unbounded dimensions, to profoundly transform the field of biomedicine. Nanowires, which are created by combining several materials using techniques such as electrospinning and vapor deposition, possess distinct mechanical, optical, and electrical properties. As a result, they are well-suited for use in nanoscale electronic devices, drug delivery systems, chemical sensors, and other applications. The utilization of techniques such as the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) approach and template-assisted approaches enables the achievement of precision in synthesis. This precision allows for the customization of characteristics, which in turn enables the capability of intracellular sensing and accurate drug administration. Nanowires exhibit potential in biomedical imaging, neural interfacing, and tissue engineering, despite obstacles related to biocompatibility and scalable manufacturing. They possess multifunctional capabilities that have the potential to greatly influence the intersection of nanotechnology and healthcare. Surmounting present obstacles has the potential to unleash the complete capabilities of nanowires, leading to significant improvements in diagnostics, biosensing, regenerative medicine, and next-generation point-of-care medicines.

Velhal K, Barage S, Roy A, Lakkakula J, Yamgar R, Alqahtani MS, Yadav KK, Ahn Y, Jeon BH. A Promising Review on Cyclodextrin Conjugated Paclitaxel Nanoparticles for Cancer Treatment. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14153162. [PMID: 35956677 PMCID: PMC9370985 DOI: 10.3390/polym14153162] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2022] [Revised: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
This review presented the unique characteristics of different types of cyclodextrin polymers by non-covalent host–guest interactions to synthesize an inclusion complex. Various cancers are treated with different types of modified cyclodextrins, along with the anticancer drug paclitaxel. PTX acts as a mitotic inhibitor, but due to its low dissolution and permeability in aqueous solutions, it causes considerable challenges for drug delivery system (DDS) designs. To enhance the solubility, it is reformulated with derivatives of cyclodextrins using freeze-drying and co-solvent lyophilization methods. The present supramolecular assemblies involve cyclodextrin as a key mediator, which is encapsulated with paclitaxel and their controlled release at the targeted area is highlighted using different DDS. In addition, the application of cyclodextrins in cancer treatment, which reduces the off-target effects, is briefly demonstrated using various types of cancer cell lines. A new nano-formulation of PTX is used to improve the antitumor activity compared to normal PTX DDS in lungs and breast cancer is well defined in the present review.
