Abstract
Recent advances in emerging nanocarriers and stimuli-responsive (SR) delivery systems have brought about a revolution in the food and pharmaceutical industries. SR carriers are able to release the encapsulated bioactive compounds (bioactives) upon an external trigger. The potential of releasing the loaded bioactives in site-specific is of great importance for the pharmaceutical industry and medicine that can deliver the cargo in an appropriate condition. For the food industry, release of encapsulated bioactives is considerably important in processing or storage of food products and can be used in their formulation or packaging. There are various stimuli to control the favorite release of bioactives. In this review, we will shed light on the effect of different stimuli such as temperature, humidity, pH, light, enzymatic hydrolysis, redox, and also multiple stimuli on the release of encapsulated cargo and their potential applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. An overview of cargo release mechanisms is also discussed. Furthermore, various alternatives to manipulate the controlled release of bioactives from carriers and the perspective of more progress in these SR carriers are highlighted.

Review of Applications and Future Prospects of Stimuli-Responsive Hydrogel Based on Thermo-Responsive Biopolymers in Drug Delivery Systems. Polymers (Basel) 2021; 13:polym13132086. [PMID: 34202828 PMCID: PMC8272167 DOI: 10.3390/polym13132086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2021] [Revised: 06/17/2021] [Accepted: 06/21/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Some of thermo-responsive polysaccharides, namely, cellulose, xyloglucan, and chitosan, and protein-like gelatin or elastin-like polypeptides can exhibit temperature dependent sol–gel transitions. Due to their biodegradability, biocompatibility, and non-toxicity, such biomaterials are becoming popular for drug delivery and tissue engineering applications. This paper aims to review the properties of sol–gel transition, mechanical strength, drug release (bioavailability of drugs), and cytotoxicity of stimuli-responsive hydrogel made of thermo-responsive biopolymers in drug delivery systems. One of the major applications of such thermos-responsive biopolymers is on textile-based transdermal therapy where the formulation, mechanical, and drug release properties and the cytotoxicity of thermo-responsive hydrogel in drug delivery systems of traditional Chinese medicine have been fully reviewed. Textile-based transdermal therapy, a non-invasive method to treat skin-related disease, can overcome the poor bioavailability of drugs from conventional non-invasive administration. This study also discusses the future prospects of stimuli-responsive hydrogels made of thermo-responsive biopolymers for non-invasive treatment of skin-related disease via textile-based transdermal therapy.

Abstract
Various natural and synthetic polymers are capable of showing thermoresponsive properties and their hydrogels are finding a wide range of biomedical applications including drug delivery, tissue engineering and wound healing. Thermoresponsive hydrogels use temperature as external stimulus to show sol-gel transition and most of the thermoresponsive polymers can form hydrogels around body temperature. The availability of natural thermoresponsive polymers and multiple preparation methods of synthetic polymers, simple preparation method and high functionality of thermoresponsive hydrogels offer many advantages for developing drug delivery systems based on thermoresponsive hydrogels. In textile field applications of thermoresponsive hydrogels, textile based transdermal therapy is currently being applied using drug loaded thermoresponsive hydrogels. The current review focuses on the preparation, physico-chemical properties and various biomedical applications of thermoresponsive hydrogels based on natural and synthetic polymers and especially, their applications in developing functionalized textiles for transdermal therapies.

Abstract
Understanding the interrelationship between material surface properties and the biological response to such materials remains a fundamental scientific challenge, as well as being of considerable practical importance in medicine. Through the use of a homologous series of copolymers of increasing hydrophobicity, we aimed to illuminate the interplay between material surface hydrophobicity and signalling events within cells in contact with this model system. Extending previous work, we hereby unravel key pathways controlling cell motility and the formation of a stellate phenotype, following interaction with polymer-coated surfaces. We reveal a comparative increase in cellular motility with increasing surface hydrophilicity, conjoint with an arrest in cell cycle progression. We also show an anomalous turnover of actin within the cell as a function of changing surface hydrophobicity. Finally, we show that cyclic adenosine monophosphate may be an effector of the cellular phenotype, as its production is increased in response to changes in the surface properties. These results highlight important signaling events which control actin rearrangements and the subsequent motility and its effectors.

Abstract
This study evaluated novel structural motifs known as "plum pudding" gels as potential drug-eluting stent coatings. Controlled delivery of a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) from the intravascular stent surface represents a potential therapeutic modality for prevention of in-stent restenosis (ISR). In this study, gels were comprised of fluvastatin-loaded thermoresponsive microgel particles containing the relatively hydrophilic N-isopropylacrylamide (NiPAAm), mixed with the more hydrophobic N-tert-butylacrylamide (NtBAAm) in different wt/wt ratios: 85/15, 65/35, and 50/50, randomly dispersed in a 65/35 or 85/15 NiPAAm/NtBAAm copolymer matrix. Fluvastatin release from 5 microm copolymer films was greatest from the most hydrophilic systems and least from the more hydrophobic systems. Release from hydrophobic matrices appeared to be via Fickian diffusion, enabling use of the Stokes-Einstein equation to determine diffusion coefficients. Release from hydrophilic matrices was non-Fickian. Eluted drug retained its bioactivity, assessed as selective inhibition of human coronary artery smooth muscle cell proliferation. When stainless steel stent wires were coated (25 microm thickness) with fluvastatin-loaded 65/35 microgels in an 85/15 copolymer matrix, drug elution into static and perfused flow environments followed similar elution profiles. In contrast to elution from copolymer films cast on flat surfaces, diffusion from stent wires coated with hydrophilic and hydrophobic systems both followed Fickian patterns, with slightly larger diffusion coefficients for elution from the flow system. We conclude that manipulation of the relative hydrophobicities of both microgel and matrix components of "plum pudding" gels results in tightly regulated release of fluvastatin over an extended time period relevant to initiation and propagation of ISR.

Abstract
With the growing interest in clinical interventions that involve medical devices, the role for new biomaterials in modern medicine is currently expanding at a phenomenal rate. Failure of most implant materials stems from an inability to predict and control biological phenomena, such as protein adsorption and cell interaction, resulting in an inappropriate host response to the materials. Contemporary advances in biological investigation are starting to shift focus in the biomaterials field, in particular with the advent of high-throughput methodologies for gene and protein expression profiling. Here, we examine the role that emerging transcriptomic and proteomic technologies could play in relation to biomaterial development and usage. Moreover, a number of studies are highlighted which have utilized such approaches in order to try to create a deeper understanding of cell-biomaterial interactions and, hence, improve our ability to predict and control the biocompatibility of new materials.

Abstract
Understanding external factors that determine cellular phenotypic responses is of key interest in the field of biomaterials. Currently, material surface characteristics, protein adsorption and cellular phenotypic responses are all considered to be interrelated and ultimately determine the biocompatibility of materials. The exact nature of the relationship between these distinct, yet related, phenomena still remains to be elucidated. Through the use of a series of thermoresponsive N-isopropylacrylamide-based co-polymer films, we aimed to shed light on the relationship between surface hydrophobicity, protein adsorption and subsequent cellular response. Despite changes in co-polymer hydrophobicity mediated by altered ratios of constituent monomers, differential cellular response was only apparent in the presence of serum. Co-polymer films displayed alterations with respect to the amount of protein adsorbed on the surface, with individual serum proteins (albumin and fibronectin) displaying contrasting adsorption characteristics. Changes in protein adsorption corresponded to changes in cell adhesion, cytoskeletal organisation and cell morphology, as well as to changes in cell movement and intracellular signalling events. Examination of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK 1/2), important mediators of adhesion and growth factor-related signalling events, revealed a comparative reduction in phosphorylation of these signalling proteins in cells grown on co-polymers in comparison to those cultured on tissue culture polystyrene (TCP; used as a control surface). We also associated surface-mediated phenotypic alterations of cells grown on TCP and co-polymer films with particular changes in gene expression. These results indicate that cellular response to interaction with our series of co-polymer films is determined by the surface-adsorbed protein layer, which in turn is determined by the changing surface chemistry as the ratio of the co-monomers is altered.

Abstract
The success of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in treatment of acute coronary syndromes has been compromised by the incidence of restenosis. The physical insult of balloon insertion can damage or remove the endothelial monolayer, thereby generating a prothrombotic surface. The resulting inappropriate response to injury can also lead to penetration of inflammatory cells, conversion of the underlying media to a synthetic phenotype, deposition of extracellular matrix, constrictive remodeling, and neointimal hyperplasia. While stent implantation at the time of balloon insertion has offset some of these events, inflammatory responses to the implanted biomaterial (stent) and intimal hyperplasia are still prominent features of the procedure, leading in 20-30% of cases to in-stent restenosis within a year. Systemic delivery of drugs designed to offset in-stent restenosis injury has been largely unsuccessful, which has led to the development of strategies for coating stents with drugs for local delivery. Drug-eluting stents constitute an innovative means of further reducing the incidence of restenosis injury and clinical trials have shown encouraging results. This review focuses on properties of a class of environment-sensitive hydrogels, the N-isopropylacrylamide-based thermoresponsive co-polymers, on their potential roles as stent coatings, on their demonstrated ability to incorporate and release drugs that modify vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cell functions, and on issues that still await clarification, prior to their adoption in a clinical setting.
