In this study, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were embedded into the hydrophilic poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanofibrous mats to achieve sustained release of water soluble drug from hydrophilic nanofibrous mats. MSNs were successfully prepared based on a sol–gel method. Water soluble drug naproxen sodium was then loaded into the mesopores of the MSNs, and different amounts of the drug-loaded MSNs were further incorporated into the fibers by the electrospinning process. Morphology of the nanofibrous mats was investigated, and it was found that all the fibers exhibited fibrous structure. Interestingly, lots of protrusions could be observed from the scanning electron microscopy images with high magnification, and numbers of the protrusions increased with the increasing of loading ratios of the MSNs from 5 to 15%. In addition, the wetting behaviors of the nanofibrous mats were also measured, and the water contact angles of all the mats were measured to be 0°. Finally, the drug release results indicated that all the PVA/MSNs composite nanofibrous mats showed an obviously prolonged drug release. The optimal loading ratio of the MSNs in the nanofibers was 10% due to the slowest drug release rate. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136 , 47922.

In this research a thermo-sensitive drug loaded core–shell fibers were prepared by UV photo-polymerization combined with electrospinning technology. The biodegradable polymer polylactic acid (PLA) was used as the core with electrospinning and the N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) was selected to be shell of the fibers via UV photo-polymerization, respectively. Combretastatin A4 (CA4) was used as the model drug loaded in PLA (core structure) to test the thermo-sensitivity of the core–shell fibers. SEM was performed to observe the morphology of the fibers. TEM was carried out to confirm the core–shell structure of the fibers. Furthermore, XPS and FTIR results demonstrated that the core–shell structure had been fabricated as designed. Water contact angle (WCA) test indicated that the fibers show different wettability when the temperature was below or above the lower critical solution temperature (LCST). Moreover, in vitro drug release test was conducted to explore the difference of the drug release when the temperature was at 25 °C and 40 °C. The cell culture studies showed that the prepared core–shell structure nanofibers have a potential application in the biomedical fields as tissue engineering.

Since Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles synthesized by plant extracts possess good bio-compatibility and superparamagnetic properties, the possibility of these could be used as a carrier in drug delivery. In this work, doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX), an anti-cancer drug, loaded on glutaric anhydride-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu) was investigated at varying pH values for effective drug delivery. Various factors affecting the adsorption of DOX onto the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu were examined, where the adsorption efficiency of DOX reached 92% at a concentration of 20 mg/L employing 10 mg of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu at 303 K in pH 7.4. However, the adsorption efficiency of DOX was decreased to 18% at acidic pH value down to 3.0, implicating that the drug releasing process was controlled by pH. Adsorption kinetics was fitting to pseudo-second-order and the isothermal adsorption conformed to Freundlich isotherm. The morphology and surface composition of the synthesized Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu were characterized by SEM, TEM , and N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherms, revealing that the specific surface area being 62.6 m 2 /g and the size ranging from ~30 to 50 nm. The zeta potential results indicated that Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu were negatively charged in various pH from 3 to 8.5. Characterizations by FTIR and UV–Vis techniques suggested that the DOX was absorbed and it can be delivered by Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -Glu.

A series of temperature- and pH-responsive polyurethanes based on hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) were synthesized by a coupling reaction with bis-1,4-(hydroxyethyl) piperazine (HEP), N -methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) and N -butyldiethanolamine (BDEA), respectively. The chemical structure , molecular weight, thermal property and crystallization properties were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy. The resulting polyurethanes were then used to prepare nanoparticles either by direct dispersion method or dialysis method. Their pH and temperature responsibilities were evaluated by optical transmittance and size measurement in aqueous media. Interestingly, HDI-based and MDI-based polyurethanes exhibited different pH and temperature responsive properties. Nanoparticles based on HDI-HEP and HDI-MDEA were temperature-responsive, while MDI-based biomaterials were not. All of them showed pH-sensitive behavior. The possible responsive mechanism was investigated by 1 H NMR spectroscopy. The cytotoxicity of the polyurethanes was evaluated using methylthiazoletetrazolium (MTT) assay in vitro . It was shown that the HDI-based polyurethanes were non-toxic, and could be applied to doxorubicin (DOX) encapsulation. The experimental results indicated that DOX could be efficiently encapsulated into polyurethane nanoparticles and uptaken by Huh-7 cells. The loaded DOX molecules could be released from the drug-loaded polyurethane nanoparticles upon pH and temperature changes, responsively.

Mesoporous hydroxyapatite is widely applied in biomedical and environmental fields due to its high surface area and adsorption capacity. In current work a one-step hydrothermal method to synthesize mesoporous HA was developed with the assistance of a cost-effective template vitamin C. It was observed the pore size and morphology of hydrothermally synthesized HA were correlated to applied solution composition. A combination of calcium hydroxide, orthophosphate, and vitamin C can finally result in mesoporous rod-like HA nanoparticles with surface area of 88 m 2 .g −1 and pore size of 15.7 nm on average. The mesoporous HA exhibited enhanced adsorption of model drug doxorubicin in comparison to conventionally synthesized HA as expected. Consequently, this work provides new pathway to prepare mesoporous HA with advantages of economy and convenience.

As a leading cause of vision impairment of the retina, macular edema (ME) has one of the highest clinical demands for treatment. Current treatment of ME relies heavily on invasive techniques resulting in complications and poor patient compliance. To enhance the efficiency of triamcinolone acetonide as eye drop to the posterior segment of the eye, we developed and characterized a novel formulation, namely, triamcinolone acetonide chitosan-coated liposomes (TA-CHL), prepared by the calcium acetate gradient method with some modifications. TA-CHL provided the mean particle size of 135.46 ± 4.49 nm and high entrapment efficiency (90.66 ± 3.21%), exhibited a sustained release profile, excellent physical stability, and no significant toxicity on cornea, conjunctiva, and retina. Optical coherence tomography system (OCT) was used to detect pharmacokinetics of CHL in vivo, indicating that CHL had good potency for drug delivery. Cellular uptake experiments showed CHL had the higher transduction efficiency into HCEC and ARPE-19 than liposomes. TA-CHL was shown to be potentially effective eye drop to contribute to the posterior segment of the eye.

Switching aerobic respiration to anaerobic glycolysis of cancer cells plays an important role in development and progression of acquired resistance. Since vitamin C enabled the inhibition of glycolysis of cancer cells, and erlotinib-resistant sub-line of HCC827 (ER6 cells) switched its metabolic features to higher glycolysis for survival, we hypothesize that vitamin C is able to inhibit glycolysis of ER6 cells. In this study, we found that both reduced vitamin C and oxidized vitamin C (DHA) could selectively suppress the viability of ER6 cells. DHA was efficient in inhibiting glycolysis and leading to energy crisis, which could be one mechanism for overcoming drug resistance to erlotinib of ER6 cells. Our data suggest that applying DHA could be a novel treatment strategy for NSCLC with acquired resistance to targeted therapy.

A negatively charged polypeptide nanogel, near-infrared (NIR) cyanine dye (Cy5.5) conjugated and 2,3-dimethylmaleic anhydride (DMA) modified poly- l -lysine-co- l -cystine (CDPLC), is synthesized and is used as an imaging-guided sequential drug delivery system. The CDPLC nanogel can respond to two general stimulations in sequence: extracellular tumor acidic microenvironment pHe (6.8–6.5) and intracellular high concentration glutathione (GSH). Under pHe, the DMA shell of the nanogel is removed and a charge reversal takes place, resulting in positively charged nanogel which can be internalized by cancer cells easily. Once internalized into tumor cells, the increased intracellular GSH concentration further promotes DOX release from the nanogel and DOX is enriched to the nucleus. Cy5.5 is conjugated to the nanogel as an NIR fluorescent probe, making it possible for imaging-guided drug delivery, which is confirmed by the MTT and confocal laser scanning microscopy via in vitro experiments. The as-prepared nanogel is a potential theranostic for cancer therapy.

A series of pH-temperature dual stimuli-responsive random copolymers poly[ N,N -dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate- co -poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate][poly(DMAEMA- co -MPEGMA)] were synthesized by free radical polymerization. The supramolecular hydrogel was formed by pseudopolyrotaxane, which was prepared with the host-guest interactions between α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) side chains. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the structures of the hydrogels. The pH-temperature dual stimuli responsive properties of the hydrogels were characterized by rheometer. Finally, the controllable drug release behavior of the hydrogel, which was used 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) as the model drug, was investigated at different temperatures and different pH values. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Currently, the major challenge for cancer treatment is to develop simple and smart nanocarriers that can efficiently retain the encapsulated drug during blood circulation, recognize tumor cells and quickly release the drug under stimulation. In this paper, such a pH-sensitive core–shell composite nanoparticles is prepared based on a 3-aminophenylboronic acid modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN–APBA) core coated with a lactobionic acid grafted chitosan (CS–LA) shell via boronate ester bonds. The MSN core increases drug loading capacity and stability, and lactobionic acid offers abundant diols which can form pH sensitive boronate ester bonds with APBA on MSN. Meanwhile, the lactobionic acid-conjugated shell could also efficiently target the asialoglycoprotein receptor over expressing hepatoma cells. The successful synthesis of CS–LA and MSN–APBA is confirmed by the results of TGA, TEM, DLS, FT-IR, 1H-NMR and N2 adsorption–desorption. Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) is applied as a model drug and the behaviors of drug loading/release are investigated. The drug loading behavior is pH-dependent, and its drug encapsulation efficiency is near 80% and loading capacity is 13.05%. The results of cumulative in vitro release indicate that at neutral pH, the pores of the MSN are effectively capped with a polymer shell and the drug release is strongly inhibited, almost zero release. While at acidic pH, the hydrolysis of the boroester bond takes place and thus results in a rapid release of the entrapped drug. The cytotoxicity assay indicates high cell biocompatibility of this material and it is suitable as a drug carrier. When loaded with DOX, it presents distinctly cytotoxic behavior to HepG2 cells, due to the sustained release of drug. These results imply that the core–shell nanoparticles are promising platforms to construct simple and effective pH-responsive controlled drug delivery systems for cancer therapy.

The supramolecular interaction between the water-soluble pillar[5]arene (WP[5]) as host and dopamine hydrochloride (DH) as guest was studied by spectrofluorometry . The fluorescence intensity of DH gradually decreased with increasing WP[5] concentration, and the possible interaction mechanism between WP[5] and DH was confirmed by 1 H NMR, 2D NOESY , and molecular modelling. Based on significant DH fluorescence, a highly sensitive and selective method for DH determination was developed for the first time. The fluorescence intensity was measured at 312 nm, with excitation at 285 nm. The effects of pH, temperature, and reaction time on the fluorescence spectra of the WP[5]-DH complex were investigated. A linear relationship between fluorescence intensity and DH concentration in the range of 0.07–6.2 μg mL − 1 was obtained. The corresponding linear regression equation is Δ F = 25.76 C + 13.56 (where C denotes the concentration in μg mL − 1 ), with the limit of detection equal to 0.03 μg mL − 1 and the correlation coefficient equal to 0.9996. This method can be used for the determination of dopamine in injection and urine samples. In addition, the WP[5]-DH complex has potential applications in fluorescent sensing and pharmacokinetics studies of DH.
