Hydrophilic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (HMNPs) were synthesized by introducing Fe 3 O 4 on the basis of mesoporous organosilicon nanoparticle hollow spheres as a drug carrier. N- and S- doped graphene quantum dots (NS-GQDs) and polyethylenimine (PEI) were grafted onto the surface of HMNPs. Finally, two types of composite mesoporous particles, HMNPs-NS-GQDs-PEI-HA and HMNPs-NS-GQDs-PEI-FA which can enter VX2 cells for fluorescence confocal imaging, were further modified by targeting ligand hyaluronic acid (HA) and folic acid (FA). The heteroatoms of NS-GQDs have intelligent functional effects, which can not only improve the photoluminescence performance of GQDs, but also generate conjugated quantum dots with GA, so as to synergistically improve the drug effectiveness. Under illumination by near-infrared (NIR) radiation, gambogic acid (GA)-loaded HMNPs was promoted to the sustained release of gambogic acid. The loading and sustained release of the anticancer drug GA on the compound mesoporous particles were studied. The cytotoxicity and antitumor properties of the compound mesoporous particles were investigated by both in vitro cell experiments and in vivo experiments in mice. The results showed that HMNPs-NS-GQDs-PEI-HA and HMNPs-NS-GQDs-PEI-FA have desired fluorescence and magnetic properties for cell fluorescence imaging and magnetic targeting of cancer cells. Both of composite mesoporous particles have desired loading capacity on GA and pH-responsive drug release behavior as well as low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility. The cell survival rate of HMNPs-NS-GQDs-PEI-HA and HMNPs-NS-GQDs-PEI-FA loaded with GA was only 7.69% and 8.71%, respectively, after 24 h, which can effectively induce the apoptosis of VX2 cells. Tumor experiments in mice demonstrated that HMNPs-NS-GQDs-PEI-HA inhibits tumor growth and exhibits magnetic targeting function.

Microcapsule colloidal systems have been widely used as delivery vehicles. Natural biopolymers are highly biocompatible shell materials for the fabrication of microcapsules, but no single substance can fulfill the requirements of aqueous two-phase interfacial assembly. In this study, we fabricated pectin-chitosan-collagen composite microcapsules (PCCMs) in an aqueous two-phase system to improve the robustness and sustained-release capacity of resultant microcapsules. Fourier transform infrared spectra and isothermal titration calorimetry thermodynamics analysis indicated that the PCCM interface can be stabilized by pectin, chitosan, and collagen via intermolecular electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonds. The swelling experiment and atomic force microscopy nanoindentation measurements demonstrated that the PCCMs had excellent anti-swelling performance and enhanced mechanical strength of the composite interfacial membrane. Contraction-recovery measurements and scanning electron microscopy indicated that the PCCMs exhibited prominent anti-shrinkage capacity and restorable surface smoothness. The release kinetics of encapsulated substances under conditions of different osmotic pressure and salt concentrations revealed that the PCCMs had superior sustained-release capacity. This study yielded natural, biocompatible, and robust aqueous two-phase microcapsules for encapsulation and delivery of active biomacromolecules.

The Tibetan eighteen flavor dangshen pills (TEP) are composed of 18 traditional Tibetan medicines, which are commonly used in the treatment of skin diseases in the Tibetan medical system. They have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, and healing properties. However, TEP contain large doses and have strong side effects and low bioavailability. To improve the utilization rate of TEP in skin treatment, we prepared TEP powder and then introduced it into polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) hydrogels to treat diabetic wounds by slowly releasing the active ingredients of TEP. In vitro studies showed that TEP-loaded hydrogels can effectively and continuously release the active ingredients of TEP and have antibacterial and antioxidant properties. In addition, the hydrogel system was not cytotoxic to L929 cells, and significantly promoted the proliferation of HUVECs. Moreover, when the TEP-loaded hydrogel was applied to diabetic wounds in rats, it reduced the inflammatory response and improved collagen deposition, which in turn promoted skin healing. Our results indicate that TEP-loaded hydrogels may be a new formulation for the application of traditional Tibetan medicines for the treatment of chronic wounds.

The mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) was modified by salicylaldimine, furfuralimine, and benzaldehyde imine, respectively, denoted as Sal-MSN, Fur-MSN, and Ben-MSN for methyl eugenol (Me) delivery by one-step method. The results confirmed that Me was successfully adsorbed by Schiff base mesoporous silica, which maintained regular hexagonal pore structure. Me is distributed in amorphous state in the pores of the mesoporous silica indicated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) curves. Schiff base modification strengthened the interaction between Me and mesoporous silica, leading to its higher sustained-release performance and the disappearance of sudden release in sustained-release performance comparing with Me-MSN before Schiff base modification. Me and Me-MSN were most consistent with the First-order kinetic and logistic equation, respectively. After Schiff base modification, Me-Sal-MSN, Me-Fur-MSN, and Me-Ben-MSN were most consistent with Korsmeryer–Peppas kinetic equation. Therefore, the difference of Me concentration was no longer the main control factor of sustained-release system after Schiff base modification. In the attraction of Bactrocera dorsalis test, the lure efficiency for per unit Me for Me-MSN, Me-Sal-MSN, Me-Fur-MSN, and Me-Ben-MSN equal to 2.83, 3.31, 3.32, 4.24 times of pure Me. After Schiff base modification, the samples showed higher lure efficiency due to their ideal sustained-release performance without sudden release. In short, the lure efficiency of Me was improved by the Schiff base mesoporous silica sustained-release system, in the meanwhile its service life was also prolonged.

Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is a promising approach to recover insufficient bone in dental implantations. However, the clinical application of BTE scaffolds is limited by their low mechanical strength and lack of osteoinduction. In an attempt to circumvent these limitations and improve osteogenesis, we introduced magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) into a core–shell porous electrospun scaffold and evaluated their impact on the physical, mechanical, and biological properties of the scaffold. We used poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/polycaprolactone/beta-tricalcium phosphate (PPT) scaffolds with and without γ-Fe2O3 encapsulation, namely PPT–Fe scaffolds and PPT scaffolds, respectively. The γ-Fe2O3 used in the PPT–Fe scaffolds was coated with polyglucose sorbitol carboxymethylether and was biocompatible. Structurally, PPT–Fe scaffolds showed uniform iron distribution encapsulated within the resorbable PPT scaffolds, and these scaffolds supported sustainable iron release. Furthermore, compared with PPT scaffolds, PPT–Fe scaffolds showed significantly better physical and mechanical properties, including wettability, superparamagnetism, hardness, tensile strength, and elasticity modulus. In vitro tests of rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (rADSCs) seeded onto the scaffolds showed increased expression of integrin β1, alkaline phosphatase, and osteogenesis-related genes. In addition, enhanced in vivo bone regeneration was observed after implanting PPT–Fe scaffolds in rat calvarial bone defects. Thus, we can conclude that the incorporation of IONPs into porous scaffolds for long-term release can provide a new strategy for BTE scaffold optimization and is a promising approach that can offer enhanced osteogenic capacity in clinical applications.

Background To address the issue of delivery of proteins, a six-arm copolymer, six-arm poly (ε-caprolactone)–poly(ethylene glycol) (6S-PCL-PEG), was synthesized by a simple two-step reaction. Thereafter, the application of 6S-PCL-PEG as a protein carrier was evaluated. Materials and methods A six-arm copolymer, six-arm poly(ε-caprolactone) (6S-PCL), was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization, with stannous octoate as a catalyst and inositol as an initiator. Then, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) was linked with 6S-PCL by oxalyl chloride to obtain 6S-PCL-PEG. Hydrogen-1 nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and gel-permeation chromatography were conducted to identify the structure of 6S-PCL-PEG. The biocompatibility of the 6S-PCL-PEG was evaluated by a cell counting kit-8 assay. Polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by a water-in-oil-in-water double emulsion (W 1 /O/W 2 ) solvent evaporation method. The size distribution and zeta potential of NPs were determined by dynamic light scattering. Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the morphology of NPs. Drug-loading capacity, encapsulation efficiency, and the release behavior of ovalbumin (OVA)-loading NPs were tested by the bicinchoninic acid assay kit. The stability and activity of OVA released from NPs were detected and the uptake of NPs was evaluated by NIH-3T3 cells. Results All results indicated the successful synthesis of amphiphilic copolymer 6S-PCL-PEG, which possessed excellent biocompatibility and could formulate NPs easily. High drug-loading capacity and encapsulation efficiency of protein NPs were observed. In vitro, OVA was released slowly and the bioactivity of OVA was maintained for over 28 days. Conclusion 6S-PCL-PEG NPs prepared in this study show promising potential for use as a protein carrier.

Ovarian cancer , the deadliest gynecological malignancy, primarily treated with chemotherapy. However, systemic chemotherapy often leads to severe toxic side effects and chemoresistance. Drug-loaded aerogels have emerged as a promising method for drug delivery, as they can improve drug solubility and bioavailability, control drug release, and reduce drug distribution in non-targeted tissues, thereby minimizing side effects. In this research, chitosan oligosaccharide (COS)-loaded nanofibers composite chitosan (CS) aerogels (COS-NFs/CS) with a porous network structure were created using nanofiber recombination and freeze-drying techniques. The core layer of the aerogel has a COS loading rate of 60 %, enabling the COS-NFs/CS aerogel to significantly inhibit the migration and proliferation of ovarian cancer cells (resulting in a decrease in the survival rate of ovarian cancer cells to 33.70 % after 48 h). The coaxial fiber's unique shell-core structure and the aerogel's porous network structure enable the COS-NFs/CS aerogels to release COS steadily and slowly over 30 days, effectively reducing the initial burst release of COS. Additionally, the COS-NFs/CS aerogels exhibit good biocompatibility , degradability (only retaining 18.52 % of their weight after 6 weeks of implantation), and promote angiogenesis, thus promoting wound healing post-oophorectomy. In conclusion, COS-NFs/CS aerogels show great potential for application in the treatment of ovarian cancer.

The objective of this study was to prepare and evaluate metoprolol tartrate sustained-release pellets. Cores were prepared by hot melt extrusion and coated pellets were prepared by hot melt coating. Cores were found to exist in a single-phase state and drug in amorphous form. Plasticizers had a significant effect on torque and drug content, while release modifiers and coating level significantly affected the drug-release behavior. The mechanisms of drug release from cores and coated pellets were Fickian diffusion and diffusion–erosion. The coated pellets exhibited sustained-release properties in vitro and in vivo.

The sustained-release properties of the biodegradable nano-drug delivery systems were used to improve the residence time of the chemotherapeutic agent in the body. These drug delivery systems were widely used to deliver chemotherapeutic drugs. The 5-fluorouracil loaded chitosan nanoparticles prepared in this paper have the above advantage. Here, we found that when the mass ratio of 5-fluorouracil and chitosan was 1:1, the maximum drug loading of nanoparticles was 20.13 ± 0.007%, the encapsulation efficiency was 44.28 ± 1.69%, the particle size was 283.9 ± 5.25 nm and the zeta potential was 45.3 ± 3.23 mV. The prepared nanoparticles had both burst-release and sustained-release phases in vitro release studies. In addition, the inhibitory effect of the prepared nanoparticles on gastric cancer SGC-7901 cells was similar to that of 5-fluorouracil injection, and the blank vector had no obvious inhibitory effect on SGC-7901 cells. In the pharmacokinetic study of rats in vivo , we found that AUC (0−t) , MRT (0−t) and t 1/2z of nanoparticles were significantly increased in vivo compared with 5-fluorouracil solution, indicating that the prepared nanoparticles can play a role in sustained-release.

The salicylaldehyde-modified mesoporous silica (SA–MCM-41) was prepared through a co-condensation method. Through the bridge effect from the copper ion, which also acts as the nutrition of the plant, the model drug chlorpyrifos (CH) was supported on the copper(II) Schiff base mesoporous silica (Cu–MCM-41) to form a highly efficient sustained-release system (CH–Cu–MCM-41) for pesticide delivery. The experimental results showed that the larger the concentration of the copper ion, the more adsorption capacity (AC) of Cu–MCM-41 for chlorpyrifos and the smaller its release rate. The results confirmed the existence of a coordination bond between SA–MCM-41 and copper ions as well as a coordination bond between Cu–MCM-41 and chlorpyrifos. The AC of SA–MCM-41 is 106 mg/g, while that of Cu–MCM-41 is 295 mg/g. The as-synthesized system showed significant pH sensitivity. Under the condition of pH ≤ 7, the release rate of chlorpyrifos decreased with increasing pH, whereas its release rate in weak base conditions was slightly larger than that in weak acid conditions. Meanwhile, the drug release rate of the as-synthesized system was also affected by the temperature. Their sustained-release curves can be described by the Korsmeyer–Peppas equation.

Graphical Long-lasting effects : A hierarchical structure of cellulose nanofibers and indomethacin has been fabricated through self-assembly and recrystallization under the combined effects of solvent and processing method (see figure). Such hybrid films possess a high loading capacity and encapsulation efficiency, and show a sustained drug release period over 30 days. Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) were isolated from poplar wood by using a mild chemical pretreatment combined with a high-intensity ultrasonication method. The as-prepared CNFs were used as a template to load indomethacin (IMC). With the nucleation and growth of IMC on the surfaces of CNFs and CNF clusters, CNF/IMC composite fibers were eventually fabricated. The effects of solvent and processing method on the structures of the composite fibers were analyzed in terms of morphology, surface charge, and crystal form. Drug-release characteristics of the composite fibers were evaluated by dissolution tests, in which the drug-releasing curves of the composite fibers were fitted to a mathematical model describing the releasing kinetics. The experimental results demonstrated that the composite fibers possessed an encapsulation efficiency of up to 97 %, and a sustained drug-release period of over 30 days.

Inflammatory arthritis primarily involves rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and inflammatory osteoarthritis (OA), both characterized by shared inflammation in the articular joints and cartilage degeneration. These conditions lead to joint pain, loss of function, and a decline in quality of life. Triamcinolone acetonide (TA), an intermediate-acting synthetic glucocorticoid, is widely used as an anti-inflammatory agent for the treatment of inflammatory arthritis. However, its clinical application faces challenges such as rapid clearance from the joint cavity following intra-articular (IA) administration, the risk of joint damage with repeated injections, and the invasive nature of the IA injection route. To address these drawbacks, we propose sucrose acetate isobutyrate (SAIB), a biocompatible matrix, as a promising strategy for sustained drug release via intramuscular (IM) injection. Building on this approach, we designed a gallic acid-modified triamcinolone acetonide derivative (TA-GA) and incorporated it into the SAIB matrix to create the TA-GA-SAIB depot. The modification of TA with gallic acid (GA) effectively mitigates the burst release commonly observed in SAIB formulations, attributed to hydrogen bonding interactions between TA-GA and the SAIB matrix. Benzyl alcohol (BA) was selected as the optimal solvent to achieve minimal burst release during the in vitro drug release study. The TA-GA-SAIB depot exhibited sustained in vivo drug release, enhanced anti-inflammatory effects, and significant improvement in cartilage damage, along with excellent safety and biocompatibility. The synergy between the SAIB matrix and TA-GA not only enables sustained drug release but also improves therapeutic efficacy, making it a promising system for the treatment of inflammatory arthritis via intramuscular administration.
