Abstract
Nowadays, immunotherapy is one of the most essential treatments for various diseases and a broad spectrum of disorders are assumed to be treated by altering the function of the immune system. For this reason, immunotherapy has attracted a great deal of attention and numerous studies on different approaches for immunotherapies have been investigated, using multiple biomaterials and carriers, from nanoparticles (NPs) to microneedles (MNs). In this review, the immunotherapy strategies, biomaterials, devices, and diseases supposed to be treated by immunotherapeutic strategies are reviewed. Several transdermal therapeutic methods, including semisolids, skin patches, chemical, and physical skin penetration enhancers, are discussed. MNs are the most frequent devices implemented in transdermal immunotherapy of cancers (e.g., melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, cervical, and breast cancer), infectious (e.g., COVID-19), allergic and autoimmune disorders (e.g., Duchenne's muscular dystrophy and Pollinosis). The biomaterials used in transdermal immunotherapy vary in shape, size, and sensitivity to external stimuli (e.g., magnetic field, photo, redox, pH, thermal, and even multi-stimuli-responsive) were reported. Correspondingly, vesicle-based NPs, including niosomes, transferosomes, ethosomes, microemulsions, transfersomes, and exosomes, are also discussed. In addition, transdermal immunotherapy using vaccines has been reviewed for Ebola, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Hepatitis B virus, Influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, Hand-foot-and-mouth disease, and Tetanus.

Abstract
Revolutionary fabrication technologies such as three-dimensional (3D) printing to develop dental structures are expected to replace traditional methods due to their ability to establish constructs with the required mechanical properties and detailed structures. Three-dimensional printing, as an additive manufacturing approach, has the potential to rapidly fabricate complex dental prostheses by employing a bottom-up strategy in a layer-by-layer fashion. This new technology allows dentists to extend their degree of freedom in selecting, creating, and performing the required treatments. Three-dimensional printing has been narrowly employed in the fabrication of various kinds of prostheses and implants. There is still an on-demand production procedure that offers a reasonable method with superior efficiency to engineer multifaceted dental constructs. This review article aims to cover the most recent applications of 3D printing techniques in the manufacturing of dental prosthetics. More specifically, after describing various 3D printing techniques and their advantages/disadvantages, the applications of 3D printing in dental prostheses are elaborated in various examples in the literature. Different 3D printing techniques have the capability to use different materials, including thermoplastic polymers, ceramics, and metals with distinctive suitability for dental applications, which are discussed in this article. The relevant limitations and challenges that currently limit the efficacy of 3D printing in this field are also reviewed. This review article has employed five major scientific databases, including Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, and Scopus, with appropriate keywords to find the most relevant literature in the subject of dental prostheses 3D printing.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is a neurodegenerative disease caused by the deposition and accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides in the brain neurons. Current medications are not a definitive cure for this disease, but they can hamper the signs and symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, prevention is the best way to deal with this disease. In this study, the novel structures based on MBenes (such as Cd2B, Mo2B, Cu2B, and Ta2B) are proposed to prevent amyloid-β accumulation in Alzheimer's disease. Regarding the remarkable MBene properties such as tunability, biocompatibility, and low manufacturing cost, the effect of these structures on amyloid-β deformation was explored using molecular dynamics simulation. To provide an atomic analysis of Beta-amyloid behavior in the presence of these structures, the compaction, contact area, and stability of Beta-amyloid were investigated. The results indicated the satisfactory performance of MBenes on the destabilization of amyloid-β structures. Moreover, given the higher interactions between Cd2B and amyloid-β, the instability, compaction, and the contact area of amyloid-β particles were investigated in this complex. The findings confirmed Cd2B as the best structure to prevent amyloid-β accumulation. The results of this investigation paved the way for the development of these structures as a medicinal agent to prevent Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Drug conjugation with enzyme-sensitive peptides is one of the innovative smart delivery systems for cancer therapy. This delivery method has some advantages, such as lowering side effects and increasing treatment selectivity. Herein, two conjugates of doxorubicin and small peptide are designed that are sensitive to Cathepsin B, a tumor homing enzyme. The formation of nanoparticles at three different numbers of drug peptide prodrugs (including 30, 50, and 70 prodrugs) was studied. In addition, three metal-organic frameworks (MOF) nanocarriers, including Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIF), Universitetet I Oslo MOF (UIO-66), and MOF of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST-1), were used to increase the resistance of the prodrugs to decomposition during blood flow circulation. Then, the interactions between doxorubicin's prodrug and different MOFs were investigated. Furthermore, the impact of microfluidics on nanoparticle interactions was studied. Molecular dynamic simulation was used to investigate thermodynamic and conformational parameters. The results showed that the concentration of doxorubicin prodrugs affected cluster formation. Moreover, based on Gibb's free energy analysis, the interaction of these prodrugs with various types of MOFs revealed more spontaneous interactions in microfluidic modeling conditions. ZIF had the best and most stable interactions with the prodrugs in bulk and microfluidic modeling. As a result, the best and most stable state was associated with a lower concentration of these prodrugs with ZIF in the microfluidic condition.

Abstract
In late 2019, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Spike protein is one of the surface proteins of SARS-CoV-2 that is essential for its infectious function. Therefore, it received lots of attention for the preparation of antiviral drugs, vaccines, and diagnostic tools. In the current study, we use computational methods of chemistry and biology to study the interaction between spike protein and its receptor in the body, angiotensin-I-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2). Additionally, the possible interaction of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, including graphene, bismuthene, phosphorene, p-doped graphene, and functionalized p-doped graphene, with spike protein is investigated. The functionalized p-doped graphene nanomaterials were found to interfere with spike protein better than the other tested nanomaterials. In addition, the interaction of the proposed nanomaterials with the main protease (Mpro) of SARS-CoV-2 was studied. Functionalized p-doped graphene nanomaterials showed more capacity to prevent the activity of Mpro. These 2D nanomaterials efficiently reduce the transmissibility and infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 by both the deformation of the spike protein and inhibiting the Mpro. The results suggest the potential use of 2D nanomaterials in a variety of prophylactic approaches, such as masks or surface coatings, and would deserve further studies in the coming years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, the development of nanocarriers and the improvement of their biochemical properties have became of great importance. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) have many applications in drug delivery systems (DDS) as a common carbon-based structure. In the current work, the penetration, co-loading, and co-release of Doxorubicin (DOX) and Paclitaxel (PAX), as two cancer chemotherapy agents, were investigated using a novel modified copolymer with functionalized SWCNT. RESULTS This study proposes a dual-responsive smart carrier that is sensitive to pH and temperature. The carrier consists of functionalized SWNT and Dimethyl acrylamide-trimethyl chitosan (DMAA-TMC) grafting on SWCNT. This suggested carrier was investigated by utilizing molecular simulations. Interaction energies between DOX, PAX, and carrier as well as the affinity of drugs to the nanocarrier were studied. The energy analysis of drug release and adsorption presented that DOX and PAX delivery using this carrier is selective and sensitive at healthy and cancerous conditions. The attraction of DMAA-TMC, as a biodegradable and biocompatible copolymer, with SWCNT showed that degradation mechanism in acidic environment deformed the copolymer. This leads to a smart release mechanism in an acidic cancerous tissue. Additionally, it improves hydrophilicity, optimum nano-particle size, and cell cytotoxicity concerns. CONCLUSIONS The simulation results manifested a significant contribution of DMAA-TMC in the adsorption and release of cancer chemotherapy drugs in normal and neoplastic tissues. The interaction of copolymer also improves the biocompatibility and biodegradability of the SWCNT. Smart drug delivery carrier can be a valuable nanohybrid for loading, transporting, and releasing of cancer chemotherapy drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The distribution of drugs could not be controlled in the conventional delivery systems. This has led to the developing of a specific nanoparticle-based delivery system, called smart drug delivery systems. In cancer therapy, innovative biocompatible nanocarriers have received much attention for various ranges of anti-cancer drugs. In this work, the effect of an interesting and novel copolymer named "dimethyl acrylamide-trimethyl chitosan" was investigated on delivery of paclitaxel and doxorubicin applying carboxylated fullerene nanohybrid. The current study was run via molecular dynamics simulation and quantum calculations based on the acidic pH differences between cancerous microenvironment and normal tissues. Furthermore, hydrogen bonds, radius of gyration, and nanoparticle interaction energies were studied here. Stimulatingly, a simultaneous pH and temperature-responsive system were proposed for paclitaxel and doxorubicin for a co-polymer. A pH-responsive and thermal responsive copolymer were utilized based on trimethyl chitosan and dimethyl acrylamide, respectively. In such a dualistic approach, co-polymer makes an excellent system to possess two simultaneous properties in one bio-polymer. RESULTS The simulation results proposed dramatic and indisputable effects of the copolymer in the release of drugs in cancerous tissues, as well as increased biocompatibility and drug uptake in healthy tissues. Repeated simulations of a similar article performed for the validation test. The results are very close to those of the reference paper. CONCLUSIONS Overall, conjugated modified fullerene and dimethyl acrylamide-trimethyl chitosan (DMAA-TMC) as nanohybrid can be an appropriate proposition for drug loading, drug delivery, and drug release on dual responsive smart drug delivery system.
