Abstract
Biomaterials possess distinctive properties, notably their ability to encapsulate active biological products while providing biocompatible support. The immune system plays a vital role in preventing cancer recurrence, and there is considerable demand for an effective strategy to prevent cancer recurrence, necessitating effective strategies to address this concern. This review elucidates crucial cellular signaling pathways in cancer recurrence. Furthermore, it underscores the potential of biomaterial-based tools in averting or inhibiting cancer recurrence by modulating the immune system. Diverse biomaterials, including hydrogels, particles, films, microneedles, etc., exhibit promising capabilities in mitigating cancer recurrence. These materials are compelling candidates for cancer immunotherapy, offering in situ immunostimulatory activity through transdermal, implantable, and injectable devices. They function by reshaping the tumor microenvironment and impeding tumor growth by reducing immunosuppression. Biomaterials facilitate alterations in biodistribution, release kinetics, and colocalization of immunostimulatory agents, enhancing the safety and efficacy of therapy. Additionally, how the method addresses the limitations of other therapeutic approaches is discussed.

Curr Drug Deliv 2024; 21:1128-1141. [PMID: 37592787 DOI: 10.2174/1567201821666230817122011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 06/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/06/2023] [Indexed: 08/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Among various materials designed for anticancer drug transport, sulfide nanoparticles are uniquely intriguing owing to their spectral characteristics. Exploration of newer nanoscale copper sulfide particles with dysprosium doping is reported herein. It leads to a change in the physicochemical properties of the sulfide nanoparticles and hence the difference in drug release and cytotoxicity. OBJECTIVE We intend to purport the suitably engineered cobalt sulfide and dysprosium-doped cobalt sulfide nanoparticles that are magnetic and NIR-absorbing, as drug delivery vehicles. The drug loading and release are based on the supramolecular drug complex formation on the surface of the nanoparticles. METHOD The nanomaterials are synthesized employing hydrothermal procedures, coated with a biocompatible poly-β-cyclodextrin, and characterized using the methods of diffractometry, microscopy, spectroscopy, thermogravimetry and magnetometry. The sustained drug release is investigated in vitro. 5-Fluorouracil is loaded in the nanocarriers. The empty and 5-fluorouracil-loaded nanocarriers are screened for their anti-breast cancer activity in vitro on MCF-7 cells. RESULTS The size of the nanoparticles is below 10 nm. They show soft ferromagnetic characteristics. Further, they show broad NIR absorption bands extending up to 1200 nm, with the dysprosium-doped material displaying greater absorbance. The drug 5-fluorouracil is encapsulated in the nanocarriers and released sustainably, with the expulsion duration extending over 10 days. The IC50 of the blank and the drug-loaded cobalt sulfide are 16.24 ± 3.6 and 12.2 ± 2.6 μg mL-1, respectively. For the drug-loaded, dysprosium-doped nanocarrier, the IC50 value is 9.7 ± 0.3 μg mL-1. CONCLUSION The ultrasmall nanoparticles possess a size suitable for drug delivery and are dispersed well in the aqueous medium. The release of the loaded 5-fluorouracil is slow and sustained. The anticancer activity of the drug-loaded nanocarrier shows an increase in efficacy, and the cytotoxicity is appreciable due to the controlled release. The nanocarriers show multi-functional characteristics, i.e., magnetic and NIR-absorbing, and are promising drug delivery agents.

Functionalization of breast implants by cyclodextrin in-situ polymerization: a local drug delivery system for augmentation mammaplasty. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1254299. [PMID: 37811378 PMCID: PMC10557261 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1254299] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Mammaplasty is a widely performed surgical procedure worldwide, utilized for breast reconstruction, in the context of breast cancer treatment, and aesthetic purposes. To enhance post-operative outcomes and reduce risks (hematoma with required evacuation, capsular contracture, implant-associated infection and others), the controlled release of medicaments can be achieved using drug delivery systems based on cyclodextrins (CDs). In this study, our objective was to functionalize commercially available silicone breast implants with smooth and textured surfaces through in-situ polymerization of two CDs: β-CD/citric acid and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-CD/citric acid. This functionalization serves as a local drug delivery system for the controlled release of therapeutic molecules that potentially can be a preventive treatment for post-operative complications in mammaplasty interventions. Initially, we evaluated the pre-treatment of sample surfaces with O2 plasma, followed by chitosan grafting. Subsequently, in-situ polymerization using both types of CDs was performed on implants. The results demonstrated that the proposed pre-treatment significantly increased the polymerization yield. The functionalized samples were characterized using microscopic and physicochemical techniques. To evaluate the efficacy of the proposed system for controlled drug delivery in augmentation mammaplasty, three different molecules were utilized: pirfenidone (PFD) for capsular contracture prevention, Rose Bengal (RB) as anticancer agent, and KR-12 peptide (KR-12) to prevent bacterial infection. The release kinetics of PFD, RB, and KR-12 were analyzed using the Korsmeyer-Peppas and monolithic solution mathematical models to identify the respective delivery mechanisms. The antibacterial effect of KR-12 was assessed against Staphylococcus epidermidis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, revealing that the antibacterial rate of functionalized samples loaded with KR-12 was dependent on the diffusion coefficients. Finally, due to the immunomodulatory properties of KR-12 peptide on epithelial cells, this type of cells was employed to investigate the cytotoxicity of the functionalized samples. These assays confirmed the superior properties of functionalized samples compared to unprotected implants.

Abstract
Bone tissue exhibits critical factors for metastatic cancer cells and represents an extremely pleasant spot for further growth of tumors. The number of metastatic bone lesions and primary tumors that arise directly from cells comprised in the bone milieu is constantly increasing. Bioceramics have recently received significant attention in bone tissue engineering and local drug delivery applications. Additionally, additive manufacturing of bioceramics offers unprecedented advantages including the possibilities to fill irregular voids after the resection and fabricate patient-specific implants. Herein, we investigated the recent advances in additively manufactured bioceramics and ceramic-based composites that were used in the local bone tumor treatment and reconstruction of bone tumor defects. Furthermore, it has been extensively explained how to bi-functionalize ceramics-based biomaterials and what current limitations impede their clinical application. We have also discussed the importance of further development into ceramic-based biomaterials and molecular biology of bone tumors to: (1) discover new potential therapeutic targets to enhance conventional therapies, (2) local delivering of bio-molecular agents in a customized and "smart" way, and (3) accomplish a complete elimination of tumor cells in order to prevent tumor recurrence formation. We emphasized that by developing the research focus on the introduction of novel 3D-printed bioceramics with unique properties such as stimuli responsiveness, it will be possible to fabricate smart bioceramics that promote bone regeneration while minimizing the side-effects and effectively eradicate bone tumors while promoting bone regeneration. In fact, by combining all these therapeutic strategies and additive manufacturing, it is likely to provide personalized tumor-targeting therapies for cancer patients in the foreseeable future. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: To increase the survival rates of cancer patients, different strategies such as surgery, reconstruction, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, etc have proven to be essential. Nonetheless, these therapeutic protocols have reached a plateau in their effectiveness due to limitations including drug resistance, tumor recurrence after surgery, toxic side-effects, and impaired bone regeneration following tumor resection. Hence, novel approaches to specifically and locally attack cancer cells, while also regenerating the damaged bony tissue, have being developed in the past years. This review sheds light to the novel approaches that enhance local bone tumor therapy and reconstruction procedures by combining additive manufacturing of ceramic biomaterials and other polymers, bioactive molecules, nanoparticles to affect bone tumor functions, metabolism, and microenvironment.

Abstract
In this paper, porous scaffolds based on composite hydrogels were fabricated using polydopamine (PDA), chondroitin sulfate (CS), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) via the freezing/thawing method. Different characteristics of the prepared composite hydrogels, including the pore sizes, compression strength, lap shear strength, mass loss, and cytocompatibility were investigated. Scanning electron microscope images (SEM) displayed the hydrogel pore sizes, ranging from 20 to 100 μm. The composite hydrogel exhibited excellent porosity of 95.1%, compression strength of 5.2 MPa, lap shear strength of 21 kPa on porcine skin, and mass loss of 16.0%. In addition, the composite hydrogel possessed good relative cell activity of 97%. The PDA/CS/PVA hydrogel is cytocompatible as a starting point, and it can be further investigated in tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bone tumors are currently a major clinical challenge. In recent decades, strategies using well-designed versatile biomaterials for the treatment of bone tumors have emerged and attracted extensive research interest. Suitable biomaterials not only facilitate repair for bone defects aroused by surgical intervention but also help deliver antineoplastic drugs to the target site or provide photothermal/magnetothermal therapy to kill bone tumor cells. Thus, the development of biomaterials exhibits a great perspective for future bone tumor treatment.We summarize the recent progress of versatile biomaterials for bone tumor therapy, with an emphasis on photothermal/magnetothermal therapy and drug delivery.With the further understanding and development of biomaterials, multifunctional biomaterials have been proposed for bone tumor treatment. Through the interdisciplinary cooperation from the fields of biomedicine, clinical medicine and engineering, multifunctional biomaterials will perfectly match individual bone defects in the clinic with low cost in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy of scaffold-mediated localized chemotherapy in cancer. METHODS Databases including PubMed, Cochrane Library, and SCOPUS were searched for articles reporting the use of scaffold-mediated localized drug delivery in cancer. Essential data including scaffold fabrication material and methods, drug dosage and release duration and its effect on the cancer cells were extracted. RESULTS 15 articles out of 60 screened, fulfilled the eligibility criteria. Among the 15 studies, 5 studies included only cell lines and 2 studies were on mouse models, while 8 studies involved a combination of cell lines and mouse models. Scaffold materials included both synthetic polymers such as poly-lactide, polycaprolactone and natural materials including d-periosteum and human micro-fragmented adipose tissueA wide number of other variables included the fabrication procedure, drugs used, and the methods used to assess the effects on cancer. As a result, it was not possible to make any direct comparison of the efficacy of the therapeutic strategy used in each of these studies. CONCLUSION Irrespective of the many variables, a common consensus in all the included studies was that scaffold mediated localized drug delivery effectively reduced cancer cell viability by increasing drug bioavailability to the target tissue, while its localized effect reduced the risk of systemic toxicity.

Abstract
Cancer is the second cause of death worldwide, exceeded only by cardiovascular diseases. The prevalent treatment currently used against metastatic cancer is chemotherapy. Among the most studied drugs that inhibit neoplastic cells from acquiring unlimited replicative ability (a hallmark of cancer) are the taxanes. They operate via a unique molecular mechanism affecting mitosis. In this review, we show this mechanism for one of them, paclitaxel, and for other (non-taxanes) anti-mitotic drugs. However, the use of paclitaxel is seriously limited (its bioavailability is <10%) due to several long-standing challenges: its poor water solubility (0.3 μg/mL), its being a substrate for the efflux multidrug transporter P-gp, and, in the case of oral delivery, its first-pass metabolism by certain enzymes. Adequate delivery methods are therefore required to enhance the anti-tumor activity of paclitaxel. Thus, we have also reviewed drug delivery strategies in light of the various physical, chemical, and enzymatic obstacles facing the (especially oral) delivery of drugs in general and paclitaxel in particular. Among the powerful and versatile platforms that have been developed and achieved unprecedented opportunities as drug carriers, microemulsions might have great potential for this aim. This is due to properties such as thermodynamic stability (leading to long shelf-life), increased drug solubilization, and ease of preparation and administration. In this review, we define microemulsions and nanoemulsions, analyze their pertinent properties, and review the results of several drug delivery carriers based on these systems.

Abstract
Patients diagnosed with osteosarcoma are currently treated with intravenous injections of anticancer agents after tumor resection. However, due to remaining neoplastic cells at the site of tumor removal, cancer recurrence often occurs. Successful bone regeneration combined with the control of residual cancer cells presents a challenge for tissue engineering. Cyclodextrins loaded with chemotherapeutic drugs reversibly release the drugs over time. Hydroxyapatite bone biomaterials coated with doxorubicin-loaded cyclodextrin should release the drug with time after implantation directly at the original tumor site and may be a way to eliminate residual neoplastic cells. In the present study, we have carried out in vitro studies to evaluate such a drug-delivery system and have shown that doxorubicin released from cyclodextrin-coated hydroxyapatite retained biological activity and exhibited longer and higher cytotoxic effects on both cancer (osteosarcoma cells) and healthy cells (primary osteoblasts and endothelial cells) compared to biomaterials without cyclodextrin loaded with doxorubicin. Furthermore, doxorubicin released from biomaterials with cyclodextrin moderately induced the expression of tumor suppressor protein p53 whereas p21 expression was similar to control cells. In addition, hypoxic conditions, which occur after implantation until blood-flow to the area is regenerated, protected endothelial cells and primary osteoblasts from doxorubicin-induced cytotoxicity. This chemo-protective effect was far less prominent for the osteosarcoma cells. These findings indicate that a hydroxyapatite-cyclodextrin-doxorubicin chemotherapeutic strategy may enhance the drug-targeting effect on tumor cells while protecting the more sensitive healthy cells for a period of time after implantation. A successful integration of such a drug delivery system might allow healthy cells to initially survive during the doxorubicin exposure period, while eliminating residual neoplastic cells.

Abstract
The use of textile meshes in hernia repair is widespread in visceral surgery. Though, mesh infection is a complication that may prolong the patient recovery period and consequently presents an impact on public health economy. Such concern can be avoided thanks to a local and extended antibiotic release on the operative site. In recent developments, poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA) has been used in complement of polyethyleneterephthalate (Dacron®) (PET) or polypropylene (PP) yarns in the manufacture of semi-resorbable parietal implants. The goal of the present study consisted in assigning drug reservoir properties and prolonged antibacterial effect to a 100% PLLA knit through its functionalization with a cyclodextrin polymer (polyCD) and activation with ciprofloxacin. The study focused i) on the control of degree of polyCD functionalization of the PLLA support and on its physical and biological characterization by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and cell viability, ii) on the understanding of drug/meshes interaction using mathematic model and iii) on the correlation between drug release studies in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) and microbiological evaluation of meshes and release medium against E. coli and S. aureus. All above mentioned tests highlighted the contribution of polyCD on the improved performances of the resulting antibacterial implantable material. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE 1. We managed for the first time, with well-defined parameters in terms of temperature and time of treatment, to functionalize a bio-absorbable synthetic material to improve drug sorption and drug release properties without affecting its mechanical properties. 2. We analyzed for the first time the degradation of our coating products by mass spectroscopy to show that only citrate and cyclodextrin residues (and glucose units) without any cytotoxicity are formed. 3. We managed to improve the mechanical properties of the PLA with the cyclodextrin polymer to form a composite. The assembly (cyclodextrin polymer and PLLA) remains biodegradable.

Abstract
Nanoporous magnesium-zinc-silicon (n-MZS) xerogels with a pore size ∼4 nm, a surface area of 718 cm(2)/g, and a pore volume of 1.24 cm(3)/g were synthesized by a sol-gel method. The n-MZS xerogels had high capacity to load vancomycin hydrochloride (VH) and human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2), after soaking in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) for 24 hours (1.5 and 0.8 mg/g, respectively). Moreover, the n-MZS xerogels exhibited the sustained release of VH and rhBMP-2 as compared with magnesium-zinc-silicon (MZS) xerogels without nanopores (showing a burst release). The VH/rhBMP-2/n-MZS system not only exhibited a good antibacterial property but also promoted the MG63 cell proliferation and differentiation demonstrating good bactericidal activity and cytocompatibility. The results suggested that n-MZS with larger surface area and high pore volume might be a promising carrier for loading and sustained release of VH and rhBMP-2. Hence, the VH/rhBMP-2/n-MZS system might be one of the promising biomaterials for osteomyelitis treatment and bone repair.

Abstract
Bone metastasis is one of the leading causes of death in breast cancer patients. The current treatment is performed as a palliative therapy and the adverse side effects can compromise the patients' quality of life. In order to both effectively treat bone metastasis and avoid the limitation of current strategies, we have invented a drug eluting scaffold with clay matrix release doxorubicin (DESCLAYMR_DOX) to mechanically support the structure after resecting the metastatic tissue while also releasing the anticancer drug doxorubicin which supplements growth inhibition and elimination of the remaining tumor cells. We have previously demonstrated that this device has the capacity to regenerate the bone and provide sustained release of the anticancer drug in vitro. In this study, we focus on the ability of the device to inhibit cancer cell growth in vitro as well as in vivo. Drug-release kinetics was investigated and the cell viability test showed that the tumor inhibitory effect is sustained for up to 4weeks in vitro. Subcutaneous implantation of DESCLAYMR_DOX in athymic mice resulted in significant growth inhibition of human tumor xenografts of breast origin and decelerated multi-organ metastasis formation. Fluorescence images, visualizing doxorubicin, showed a sustained drug release from the DESCLAYMR device in vivo. Furthermore, local use of DESCLAYMR_DOX implantation reduced the incidence of doxorubicin's cardio-toxicity. These results suggest that DESCLAYMR_DOX can be used in reconstructive surgery to support the structure after bone tumor resection and facilitate a sustained release of anticancer drugs in order to prevent tumor recurrence.
