Recently, OCMS have been employed to model and decode inter-organ communication via exosomes. Exosomes are biological nanovesicles with approximately 30-200 nm diameter, released from most of the cell types and participate in various cellular functions via intracellular communication and by carrying different cargoes including protein, and nucleic acids. Under pathological conditions such as cancer, the release of exosomes enhances tremendously, which are either fused or internalized by the recipient cells to elicit specific biological responses. The research pertaining to the exosomal communication has employed different methods for characterizing their release by the donor cells and uptake by the recipient cells, such as nano tracking analyzer, protein quantification, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning EM (SEM), and immunogold-EM, exosome labeling kits, microbead-based flow cytometry. However, the research associated with the regulation of exosomal release and uptake has been impeded by the dearth of advanced techniques for capturing dynamics of exosomes.

However, a deterministic mathematical modelling could overcome these limitations. In this study, we develop a model, based on a system of two differential equations (accounting for nanoparticle (NP) degradation and then drug release from degraded NM), which enable us to estimate per capita rate constant α (#NP degraded/hr) and β (Drug Amount Released/NP), the net effect of the nanomedicine (NE factor ɣ= α.β) and the controlled release index (φ, ratio of drug release to NP degradation). The model analysis conducted with tenofovir loaded hyaluronidase sensitive NM clearly shows the α factor significantly increased with triggering stimuli due to its enzymatic action on its substrate (hyaluronic acid). However, the β factor remained relatively unchanged, due to intrinsic physicochemical properties of the drug as limiting factor. The application of the solutions of this model clearly enabled us to effectively screen among various nanoformulations and identified the best hyaluronidase-sensitive NM formulation, exhibiting the highest ratio (3.7-fold increase compared to no enzyme). The φ value confirmed the controlled release and stimuli sensitivity of the nanosystem. Moreover, the computed drug release rate (dM/dt) is consistent with other existing mathematical models (under valid assumption). The key advantages of this approach are i) relevancy to underlying physicochemical and biochemical process, ii) versatility and application to various NM kinetics, and iii) prediction of temporo-spatial distribution of the drug loaded NP that could potentially improve <em>in-vitro/in vivo</em> correlation study.

To compensate for these shortcomings, researchers are still hunting for novel anticancer drugs.

Small interfering RNA (siRNA) is an RNA molecule that activates RNAi and targets specific genes for degradation. Recent research has demonstrated that siRNA holds promise as a tool for treating diabetes complications, including diabetic neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy. In preclinical studies, siRNA has been shown to effectively target genes involved in these complications, resulting in improved clinical outcomes. One potential advantage of siRNA therapy is its ability to selectively target specific genes without disrupting endogenous mRNA pathways, which reduces the risk of off-target effects. Additionally, siRNA has the potential to provide long-lasting effects with a single dose, which could result in reduced treatment frequency and improved patient compliance. While promising preclinical results have been, several challenges still need to be addressed before siRNA can be used in clinical practice. These include delivery issues, as siRNA molecules rapidly degrade in the bloodstream and cannot cross cell membranes without assistance. Despite these challenges, the potential of siRNA as a tool for treating diabetes complications is exciting, and further research is needed to determine its safety and efficacy in clinical trials.

CRBP prevents duplication and transcription by binding to the DNA of tumor cells to inhibit the growth and division of cancer cells. CRBP has some limitations such as destroying normal cells alongside cancer cells and being poor at uptake by the cells, leading to the need for high doses, which has prompted significant attention to develop a targeted and localized delivery system that is effective for this anticancer drug. It is common to use CRBP in drug combination therapy. However, there are some disadvantages that could be overcome with nanoparticulate systems. Nano-engineered delivery systems can be an efficient approach to enhancing the cellular uptake and accumulation of CRBP, leading to improving the therapeutic potential with negligible toxicity. CRBP has been encapsulated into various nano-delivery systems, including polymer-based nanocarriers and micelles, protein nanoparticles, lipid-based nanoparticles (liposomes and solid lipid nanoparticles), silica-based nanostructures, carbon nanoparticles and etc. Moreover, there is growing interest in stimuli-responsive delivery systems for cancer-targeted delivery using modes such as induced temperature changes, electric/magnetic fields, pH, ultrasound waves, light, and laser. Cancer targeting by drug delivery systems, owing to their selective targeting, efficacy, biocompatibility and high drug payload, provides an attractive alternative treatment; however, there are technical, therapeutic, manufacturing and clinical barriers that limit their use. In this regard, the need for robust analytical methods to determine biodistribution, PK and PD profile of liposomes was highlighted in addition to a critical gap between efficient preclinical to clinical efficacy predictive modeling.
