We thus explored the production of a nanovesicle from bioresource that is supposed to be one of the potential carriers facilitating target delivery. Herein, a breast milk-derived substance was used as a bioresource for producing the milk-derived nanovesicle. The results showed that a small, spherical and negatively charged nanovesicle was successfully prepared by using an extrusion method without the use of any chemical substances and solvents. The nanovesicle showed satisfactory profiles in terms of cytotoxicity without any sustained secretion of cytokines. The nanovesicle also provided delivering potential towards different nucleic acids including single strand DNA, microRNA, and mRNA. Moreover, the nanovesicle was also shown to have bioconjugation capability.

These compounds offer medicinal benefits for treating diseases like diabetes, neurological disorders, malaria, and cancer. They also serve as hepatoprotective agents and immunomodulators. These natural products are secondary metabolites that plants produce for their defense and adaptation. Recently, numerous reports have highlighted the effectiveness of natural products in different diseases. However, comprehensive analysis of plant-based products currently used in the clinical setting for various human diseases is insufficient. This review provides extensive information about the application of natural plant products in both clinical and preclinical settings. It highlights their role in developing drugs for human diseases.

Nanomaterials like polymeric nanoparticles and liposomes offer diagnostic value by enabling real-time imaging of disease progression and treatment response. Functionalized with contrast agents or dyes, they enhance MRI, CT, PET, and fluorescence imaging, improving diagnosis, patient stratification, and monitoring of drug delivery and efficacy.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood are potential biomarkers for PDAC. In this study, the detection of pancreatic cancer-associated CTCs was evaluated using two magnetic-based diagnostic systems in a comparative approach. <b>Methods:</b> Two distinct nanotheranostic platforms were developed: monoclonal antibody-conjugated magnetic nanoparticles (mAbs-MNPs) and magnetized exosomes (termed Magxosomes). Anti-mesothelin and anti-vimentin were used as monoclonal antibodies, while mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) treated with MNPs served as the source of Magxosomes. Characterization of nano-systems was performed using dynamic light scattering (DLS), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Blood samples were collected from pancreatic cancer mouse models, treated with nanotheranostic platforms, and analyzed using a homemade magnetic particle spectroscopy (MPS) device. <b>Results:</b> The detection of pancreatic cancer-associated CTCs was investigated using nanotheranostic platforms alongside an MPS instrument. In this context, the mAbs-MNPs systems demonstrated varying efficiencies in the diagnosis of CTCs, with Ant-V-MNPs (anti-vimentin conjugated MNPs) achieving 27.47%, Ant-M-MNPs (anti-mesothelin conjugated MNPs) at 13.59%, and a 50:50 mixture of Ant-M-MNPs: Ant-V-MNPs showing an efficiency of 19.73%. Conversely, the efficiencies of Magxosomes were notably higher. Bone marrow stem cell (BMSC)-derived Magxosomes achieved an average efficiency of 63.39%, while adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC)-derived Magxosomes exhibited an average efficiency of 56.23%. <b>Conclusions:</b> This study introduces a promising method for early pancreatic cancer diagnosis by detecting CTCs in blood. It employs a non-invasive, rapid test using an advanced MPS instrument (1 ng detection limit) and nanotheranostic platforms.

About 75% of people over 75 years have diabetes or pre-diabetes and/or hyperlipidaemia which are established risk factors for cardiovascular outcomes, and risk factors for age-related conditions such as dementia, sarcopenia, frailty and osteoporosis. Age-related changes in the liver microcirculation, in particular relating to the cells lining the blood vessels, the liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC), are a potential cause for dyslipidaemia and insulin resistance in old age. There is also loss of LSEC mediated waste clearance functions essential for homeostasis. Finding ways to reverse these age-related changes in the LSEC will fill a significant gap in therapeutic options available for the treatment of ageing disorders. Such therapies may also benefit patients with fibrotic livers, since LSEC changes in this disease resemble those seen in the ageing LSEC in many aspects. Nanoparticles that access systemic circulation frequently accumulate in the liver. This could be utilized as a promising strategy for targeted drug delivery to the liver. The present study assessed if poly(alkyl-cyanoacrylate) nanoparticles (PACA NPs) are a suitable vector for the targeted transport of such therapeutics to LSEC, to reverse age-related changes such as fenestration/porosity loss. Mice were co-injected with PACA NPs and formaldehyde denatured serum albumin (FSA) and their livers were then examined by microscopy.
