Abstract
Development of new medicinal products for particular therapeutic treatment or for better manipulations with better quality and less side effects are possible as a result of advanced inorganic and organic materials application, among which zeolites, due to their properties and versatility, have been gaining attention. This paper is an overview of the development in the use of zeolite materials and their composites and modifications as medicinal products for several purposes such as active agents, carriers, for topical treatments, oral formulations, anticancer, the composition of theragnostic systems, vaccines, parenteral dosage forms, tissue engineering, etc. The objective of this review is to explore the main properties of zeolites and associate them with their drug interaction, mainly addressing the advances and studies related to the use of zeolites for different types of treatments due to their zeolite characteristics such as molecule storage capacity, physical and chemical stability, cation exchange capacity, and possibility of functionalization. The use of computational tools to predict the drug-zeolite interaction is also explored. As conclusion was possible to realize the possibilities and versatility of zeolite applications as being able to act in several aspects of medicinal products.

Characterization and Molecular Modelling of Non-Antibiotic Nanohybrids for Wound Healing Purposes. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15041140.

Abstract
The healing process of chronic wounds continues to be a current clinical challenge, worsened by the risk of microbial infections and bacterial resistance to the most frequent antibiotics. In this work, non-antibiotic nanohybrids based on chlorhexidine dihydrochloride and clay minerals have been developed in order to design advanced therapeutic systems aimed to enhance wound healing in chronic lesions. To prepare the nanohybrids, two methodologies have been compared: the intercalation solution procedure and the spray-drying technique, the latter as a one-step process able to reduce preparation times. Nanohybrids were then fully studied by solid state characterization techniques. Computational calculations were also performed to assess the interactions between the drug and the clays at the molecular level. In vitro human fibroblast biocompatibility and antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were assessed to check biocompatibility and potential microbicidal effects of the obtained nanomaterials. The results demonstrated the effective organic/inorganic character of the nanohybrids with homogeneous drug distribution into the clayey structures, which had been confirmed by classical mechanics calculations. Good biocompatibility and microbicidal effects were also observed, especially for the spray-dried nanohybrids. It was suggested that it could be due to a greater contact area with target cells and bacterial suspensions.

Clay Minerals as Bioink Ingredients for 3D Printing and 3D Bioprinting: Application in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:1806. [PMID: 34834221 PMCID: PMC8623235 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13111806] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 10/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/22/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The adaptation and progress of 3D printing technology toward 3D bioprinting (specifically adapted to biomedical purposes) has opened the door to a world of new opportunities and possibilities in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. In this regard, 3D bioprinting allows for the production of tailor-made constructs and organs as well as the production of custom implants and medical devices. As it is a growing field of study, currently, the attention is heeded on the optimization and improvement of the mechanical and biological properties of the so-called bioinks/biomaterial inks. One of the strategies proposed is the use of inorganic ingredients (clays, hydroxyapatite, graphene, carbon nanotubes and other silicate nanoparticles). Clays have proven to be useful as rheological and mechanical reinforcement in a wide range of fields, from the building industry to pharmacy. Moreover, they are naturally occurring materials with recognized biocompatibility and bioactivity, revealing them as optimal candidates for this cutting-edge technology. This review deals with the use of clays (both natural and synthetic) for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine through 3D printing and bioprinting. Despite the limited number of studies, it is possible to conclude that clays play a fundamental role in the formulation and optimization of bioinks and biomaterial inks since they are able to improve their rheology and mechanical properties, thus improving printability and construct resistance. Additionally, they have also proven to be exceptionally functional ingredients (enhancing cellular proliferation, adhesion, differentiation and alignment), controlling biodegradation and carrying/releasing actives with tissue regeneration therapeutic activities.

In Vitro Wound-Healing Properties of Water-Soluble Terpenoids Loaded on Halloysite Clay. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13081117. [PMID: 34452078 PMCID: PMC8401294 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13081117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Recently, mineral healing clays have gained much attention for wound-dressing applications. Here, we selected halloysite (HAL) clay as a biocompatible, non-toxic material that is useful as a drug delivery system to enhance the healing properties of water-soluble terpenoids 1-3 (T1-3). Terpenoids-loaded HAL clay (TH1-3) was prepared and characterized by adsorption equilibrium studies, X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and release studies. The results reveal that T1-3 were adsorbed at the HAL surface with good efficiency. The prevalent mechanism of drug retention is due to the adsorption via electrostatic interactions between the cationic groups of the T1-3 and the HAL's external surface. Release studies demonstrated that T3 was released in a higher percentage (>60%) compared to T1-2 (≈50%). Additionally, TH1-3 were assessed for their antimicrobial activity and capability to promote the re-epithelialization of scratched HaCat monolayers, through the time-kill test and the wound-healing assays, respectively. The results reveal that all the tested formulations were able to reduce the microbial growth after 1 h of incubation and that they ensured complete wound closure after 48 h. Furthermore, at the concentration of 1 µg/mL, TH3 exhibited 45% wound closure at 24 h, compared to TH1 (27%) and TH2 (30%), proving to be the best candidate in making the tissue-repair process easier and faster.

Theoretical Study of Retinol, Niacinamide and Glycolic Acid with Halloysite Clay Mineral as Active Ingredients for Topical Skin Care Formulations. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26154392.

Abstract
The adsorption of retinol, niacinamide and glycolic acid active ingredients on the internal surface of halloysite in an aqueous environment was explored at the molecular level by means of calculations based on quantum mechanics and force fields from empirical interatomic potentials. These active ingredients are stably adsorbed on the internal surface of halloysite forming hydrogen bonds between the hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen atoms with the hydroxyl groups of the inner surface of the halloysite. In addition, electrostatic interaction between these active ingredients with the water molecules was observed. Therefore, the theoretical results indicate that the adsorption of these active principles is favourable in the halloysite nanotube, which allows directing future experimental investigations for the development and design of retinol, niacinamide and glycolic acid with halloysite nanotubes systems, which may be topical formulations for skincare.

Abstract
The natural world holds useful resources that can be exploited to design effective therapeutic approaches. Ready-to-use tubular nanoclays, such as halloysite clay nanotubes (HNTs), are widely available, cost-effective, and sustainable submicron crystalline materials that have been showing great potential towards chronic multifactorial and malignant diseases, standing out as a promising anticancer nanotherapeutic strategy. Currently, several preclinical studies have reported the application of HNTs in cancer research, diagnosis, monitoring, and therapeutics. This groundbreaking review highlights the preclinical knowledge hitherto collected concerning the application of HNTs towards cancer therapy. Despite their reproducibility issues, HNTs were used as nanoarchitectonic platforms for the delivery of conventional chemotherapeutic, natural-occurring, biopharmaceutical, and phototherapeutic anticancer agents in a wide range of in vitro and in vivo solid cancer models. Overall, in different types of cancer mice models, the intratumoral and intravenous administration of HNTs-based nanoplatforms induced tumor growth inhibition without causing significant toxic effects. Such evidence raises a relevant question: does the therapeutic benefit of the parenteral administration of HNTs in cancer outweigh their potential toxicological risk? To answer this question further long-term absorption-distribution-metabolism-excretion studies in healthy and cancer animal models need to be performed. In cancer therapeutics, HNTs are envisaged as promising platforms for cancer multi-agent therapy, enabling the combination of different therapeutic modalities. Furthermore, HNTs might constitute suitable nanotheranostic platforms. Nevertheless, to confirm the potential and safety of the application of HNTs as nanodelivery systems for cancer therapy, it is necessary to perform in-depth in vivo pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic studies to further the translation to clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND hydrogels prepared with natural inorganic excipients and spring waters are commonly used in medical hydrology. Design of these clay-based formulations continues to be a field scarcely addressed. Safety and wound healing properties of different fibrous nanoclay/spring water hydrogels were addressed. METHODS in vitro biocompatibility, by means of MTT assay, and wound healing properties were studied. Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy was used to study the morphology of fibroblasts during the wound healing process. RESULTS all the ingredients demonstrated to be biocompatible towards fibroblasts. Particularly, the formulation of nanoclays as hydrogels improved biocompatibility with respect to powder samples at the same concentration. Spring waters and hydrogels were even able to promote in vitro fibroblasts motility and, therefore, accelerate wound healing with respect to the control. CONCLUSION fibrous nanoclay/spring water hydrogels proved to be skin-biocompatible and to possess a high potential as wound healing formulations. Moreover, these results open new prospects for these ingredients to be used in new therapeutic or cosmetic formulations.

Abstract
Halloysite nanotubes (HLNTs) were used as nanocarriers of the tuberculostatic agent isoniazid (INH), a BCS (Biopharmaceutics Classification System) class III drug. Self-assembling nanohybrids (INH-loaded HLNTs) with an average outer diameter of 90 nm and polydispersity index of 0.7 approximately, were obtained by spontaneous adsorption of INH molecules to HLNTs powder in aqueous medium. The nanohybrids were aimed to improve oral drug bioavailability and reduce physicochemical incompatibility of INH with other concomitantly administered tuberculostatic agents. In vitro drug release from INH-loaded HLNTs was successfully fitted to a diffusive kinetic law founded on the adsorption-desorption equilibrium between drug molecules in solution and solid inorganic excipients. INH-loaded HLNTs showed good in vitro biocompatibility toward Caco-2 cells at the concentrations studied (up to 1233 μg/mL), with improved cell proliferation. Permeability tests showed that INH transport across Caco-2 cellular membranes was greatly enhanced and fluorescent microscopy confirmed that the drug encapsulated into nanohybrid was effectively internalized by the cells. INH-loaded HLNTs enhanced stability of the drug in presence of other tuberculostatic agents, both in binary and quaternary combinations. It has been demonstrated that simple interaction between INH with HLNTs leads to drug permeability and stability improvements that could greatly facilitate the design of multiple drug dosage forms, an actual challenge in oral treatment of tuberculosis. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
