ALI/ARDS is a common condition characterized by a storm of potent inflammatory cytokines. Lung delivery of glucocorticoids (GCs) by inhalation is a potential approach for ALI treatment and ARDS prevention; however, its efficacy is limited by the rapid clearance of GCs in lungs. In this study, we developed surface-modified poly(lactic acid)-hyperbranched polyglycerol nanoparticles (BNPs) with bioadhesive properties for local delivery to the epidermis of lung tissues, which exhibited prolonged release profile of payloads following intratracheal spraying administration. Compared with that of non-adhesive nanoparticles (NNPs), BNPs showed significantly enhanced adhesion and prolonged retention within lung tissues <em>in vivo</em>. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI mice treated with betamethasone dipropionate (BD)-loaded BNPs showed significantly fewer lung histological alterations and less lung inflammation than those administered free BD or BD-loaded NNPs, indicating the enhanced therapeutic efficacy of BD/BNPs in ALI. In contrast, the features of ARDS were observed in the animal models without any treatments. Our findings demonstrated that pulmonary delivery of BNPs can maintain their same surface structures and continuously form covalent connections with the contacted tissues, emphasizing their potential to improve the therapeutic efficacy in ALI and prevent from ARDS.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22019,"journal":{"name":"Smart Materials in Medicine","volume":"5 3","pages":"Pages 348-358"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590183424000334/pdfft?md5=1acb277ba6a445c71eb2a6dca0ba19a4&pid=1-s2.0-S2590183424000334-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141951059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We confined molecules of uricase (URI), catalase (CAT), and curcumin (Cur) to a single structure (UC/Cur) while retaining their enzymatic activities via a cross-linking complexation reaction between tannic acid and FeCl<sub>3</sub> for treating HAKI. Simultaneously, bovine serum albumin (BSA)-UC/Cur nanoparticles were successfully prepared by interlinking the disulfide bonds of BSA with the enzyme complex via Tris(2-carboxyethyl) phosphine(TCEP) to form sulfhydryl groups. BSA-UC/Cur significantly attenuated MSU-induced NLRP3 inflammasome pathway activation and apoptosis in NRK-52e cells by eliminating UA crystals and intracellular reactive oxygen species. More importantly, treatment with BSA-UC/Cur stabilized blood UA concentrations and lowered proximal tubular protein levels, mitochondrial swelling, and fibrotic areas, renducing the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)2, MMP9, and NLRP3 while, increasing the expression of tight-junction proteins ZO1 and occludin as well as that of TIMP-1, in HAKI model rats. In addition, BSA-UC/Cur nanoparticles reduced the subpopulation ratios of CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells and M1 macrophages and increased those of M2 macrophages and Treg cells.

Surgery stands as the foremost clinical treatment strategy available for tackling this condition, but it receives a low efficiency for most patients. In recent years, some adjuvant therapies are employed to improve the lung cancer treatment efficiency, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy. However, these strategies have not significantly increased overall survival of patients. Additionally, the random distribution of drugs will induce severe side effects. Nanomedicines have got great attentions to boost drug effect and reduce adverse reactions, including liposome-based nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, inorganic nanoparticles, and exosomes. Importantly, nanomedicines contribute to improving drug bioavailability, stability and residency in target regions. Benefiting from the physiological characteristics of lung, the inhaled pulmonary delivery strategy in combination with nanomedicine will provide a non-invasive and effective strategy for treating lung cancer. Furthermore, the use of targeting ligands enables precise delivery of loaded drugs to lung cancer cells. Inhaled nanomedicine exhibits unique distribution and sustained release behaviors in the alveoli, amplifying the therapeutic effect and reducing side effects. This review aims to discuss various inhaled methods of delivering nanomedicine to treat lung cancer and also summarizes the clearance mechanism of nanomedicine in the lung.

While surgery is the primary treatment for acromegaly, medication is increasingly being used in patients who are unsuitable for surgery or have experienced treatment failure. Despite advancements in medical and surgical therapies, the treatment of acromegaly remains challenging. In this research, a three-dimensional (3D) <em>in-vitro</em> cell culture model for pituitary adenoma research was developed using hydrogel fiber meshes (HFMs) and GH3 cells. Electrospun nanofibers based on polyvinyl alcohol and polyacrylic acid were converted into HFMs by hydrogelification with the leaching of electrosprayed cellulose acetate beads for porosity enhancement. GH3 cells grown in the 3D model exhibited increased dispersion and upregulation of the somatostatin receptor subtypes 2 and 5 compared to those grown in traditional 2D cultures, as well as high sensitivity to somatostatin analogs and tumor-like profiles (as indicated by functional assays and transcriptome analysis, respectively). Therefore, the proposed 3D model accurately represents the physiological response to pituitary-adenoma therapeutic agents. This study highlights the potential of HFMs as a versatile platform for 3D <em>in-vitro</em> cell culture models that can be employed for pituitary adenoma research. Moreover, the proposed 3D cell culture model may contribute to a deeper understanding of tumor biology and facilitate the development of effective therapeutic strategies for acromegaly.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22019,"journal":{"name":"Smart Materials in Medicine","volume":"5 2","pages":"Pages 281-290"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590183424000188/pdfft?md5=420f9b24347545057e0cecc0858d24c8&pid=1-s2.0-S2590183424000188-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140400536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Emerging evidence has indicated that targeting the regulation of redox homeostasis to amplify oxidative stress is of value in cancer therapy. However, therapeutic agents like nucleic acids, small molecular inhibitors, and chemotherapeutic drugs fail to exert effective cancer inhibition due to their low bioavailability, susceptibility to serum enzymes, and inefficiency in cell membrane penetrating. Therefore, specific delivery vectors are required to facilitate the intracellular delivery of anti-tumor drugs. In the past few decades, various engineered nanomaterials have been designed and developed for drug delivery. In particular, rational nanoparticles (NPs) have garnered more attention due to their splendid long circulation ability, modification capacity, and stimulation-responded release. In this review, the methods of ROS generation and ROS-regulated signaling in cancer development were firstly briefly introduced. The anti-oxidant system, including the metabolism shifting and anti-oxidant genes, were next reviewed, and the strategies of NPs-mediated targeted regulation of redox homeostasis were emphatically discussed. The main strategies include NPs-induced delivery of nucleic acids, small molecule inhibitors, chemotherapeutic agents, radiosensitizers, and NPs-induced ROS generation and GSH depletion.
