Abstract
Background Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is common after sepsis and increases mortality. Lactate (Lac) can assess the prognosis of patients. Albumin (Alb) is closely associated with inflammatory response in sepsis patients. This work evaluated the predictive value of Lac/Alb for prognosis of sepsis patients. Methods Data of 160 sepsis patients were retrospectively collected. Lac and Alb levels were measured upon admission, at 24 hours and 48 hours later. Using 0.45 as the cutoff value for Lac/Alb, patients were rolled into high-level (HL) and low-level (LL) groups. MODS rates and mortality rates were analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were utilized to evaluate the predictive value of 48-hour Lac/Alb for patient prognosis. Correlation between Lac/Alb and APACHE II and SOFA scores was assessed. Results The 12-month follow-up revealed 52 deaths (32.5%), and MODS occurred in 49 cases (30.6%) on the 7th day. The MODS group possessed elevated Lac and Lac/Alb and decreased Alb to the N-MODS group (P<0.05), and similar results were observed by comparison the survival and death group (P<0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, and area under the ROC curve (AUC) of Lac/Alb in predicting MODS were 81.63%, 85.59%, and 0.89, respectively, while those in predicting death were 94.23%, 88.89%, and 0.91, respectively. Lac/Alb was positively correlated with APACHE II and SOFA scores (r=0.718 and 0.808, respectively). Conclusions Lac/Alb was linked to MODS and mortality in sepsis patients and can be based to predict adverse outcomes.

Talanta 2024; 270:125539. [PMID: 38141466 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125539] [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: 06/22/2023] [Revised: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To improve the anticancer properties of elesclomol (ELC), targeted theranostic nanoparticles (NPs; APT-PEG-Au-MMNPs@ELC) were designed to increase the selectivity of the drug delivery system (DDS). MATERIALS AND METHODS ELC was synthesized and entrapped in the open porous structure of magnetic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MMNPs). The pore entrance of MMNPs was then blocked using gold gatekeepers. Finally, the external surfaces of the particles were grafted with functional polyethylene glycol (PEG) and EpCAM aptamer to generate biocompatible and targeted NPs. In the next step, the physicochemical properties of prepared NPs were fully evaluated and their anticancer potential was evaluated both in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS The targeted NPs were successfully synthesized with a final size diameter of 81.13 ± 7.41 nm. The results indicated a pH-dependent release pattern, which sustained for 72 h despite an initial rapid release. Upon exposure to APT-PEG-Au-MMNPs@ELC, higher cytotoxicity was observed in human prostate cancer cells (PC-3) as compared with control Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, indicating higher specificity of targeted NPs against EpCAM-positive cancerous cells. Moreover, APT-PEG-Au-MMNPs@ELC could induce apoptosis in PC-3 cells. In vivo results on a PC-3 xenograft tumor model demonstrated that targeted NPs could significantly inhibit tumor growth and diminish severe side effects of ELC, compared to the free drug. CONCLUSION Collectively, APT-PEG-Au-MMNPs@ELC could be considered a promising theranostic platform for the targeted delivery of ELC to improve its therapeutic effects in prostate cancer.

Abstract
Breast carcinoma is a molecularly diverse illness, and it is among the most prominent and often reported malignancies in female across the globe. Surgical intervention, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, gene therapy, and endocrine treatment are among the currently viable treatment options for the carcinoma of breast. Chemotherapy is among the most prevalent cancer management strategy. Doxorubicin (DOX) widely employed as a cytostatic medication for the treatment of a variety of malignancies. Despite its widespread acceptance and excellent efficacy against an extensive line up of neoplasia, it has a variety of shortcomings that limit its therapeutic potential in the previously mentioned indications. Employment of nanoparticulate systems has come up as a unique chemo medication delivery strategy and are being considerably explored for the amelioration of breast carcinoma. Polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)-based nano systems are being utilized in a number of areas within the medical research and medication delivery constitutes one of the primary functions for PLGA given their inherent physiochemical attributes, including their aqueous solubility, biocompatibility, biodegradability, versatility in formulation, and limited toxicity. Herein along with the different application of PLGA-based nano formulations in cancer therapy, the present review intends to describe the various research investigations that have been conducted to enumerate the effectiveness of DOX-encapsulated PLGA nanoparticles (DOX-PLGA NPs) as a feasible treatment option for breast cancer.

Targeted poly(L-glutamic acid)-based hybrid peptosomes co-loaded with doxorubicin and USPIONs as a theranostic platform for metastatic breast cancer. NANOMEDICINE : NANOTECHNOLOGY, BIOLOGY, AND MEDICINE 2023; 48:102645. [PMID: 36549556 DOI: 10.1016/j.nano.2022.102645] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2022] [Revised: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Peptosomes, as a vesicular polypeptide-based system and a versatile carrier for co-delivery of hydrophilic and hydrophobic materials, provide great delivery opportunities due to the intrinsic biocompatibility and biodegradability of the polypeptides backbone. In the current study, a novel poly(L-glutamic acid)-block-polylactic acid di-block copolymer (PGA-PLA) was synthesized in two steps. Firstly, γ-benzyl L-glutamate-N-carboxy anhydride (BLG-NCA) and 3,6-dimethyl-1,4-dioxane-2,5-dione were polymerized using N-hexylamine and benzyl alcohol as initiators to produce poly(γ-benzyl L-glutamate (PBLG) and polylactic acid. Then, PBLG was deprotected to produce PGA. Secondly, PGA was conjugated to the benzyl-PLGA to fabricate PGA-PLA diblock copolymer. The synthesized diblock copolymer was used for the encapsulation of doxorubicin, as hydrophilic anticancer and ultra-small superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (USPIONs) as hydrophobic contrast agent within aqueous core and bilayer of vesicular peptosome, respectively via double emulsion method. The prepared peptosomes (Pep@USPIONs-DOX) controlled the release of DOX (<15 % of the encapsulated DOX release up to 240 h of incubation at the physiological conditions) while increasing the stability and solubility of the hydrophobic USPIONs. Then, AS1411 DNA aptamer was decorated on the surface of the PGA-PLA peptosomes (Apt-Pep@USPIONs-DOX). The prepared targeted and non-targeted platforms showed spherical morphology with hydrodynamic sizes of 265 ± 52 and 229 ± 44 nm respectively. In vitro cellular cytotoxicity and cellular uptake were studied in nucleolin positive (4T1) and nucleolin negative (CHO) cell lines. Cellular uptake of the targeted formulation was greater than that of non-targeted peptosome, while cellular internalization of these peptosomes was identical in CHO cells. Moreover, targeted peptosomes showed greater toxicity than non-targeted peptosome in 4T1 cell line. The prepared theranostic targeted peptosomes demonstrated improved capability in terms of survival rate, biodistribution, tumor suppression efficiency, and MR imaging in the 4T1 tumor-bearing mice.

Abstract
Nanomaterial-based drug delivery has opened new horizons in cancer therapy. This study aimed to investigate the in vitro and in vivo anti-cancer effects of a hyaluronic acid (HA)-targeted nanocarrier based on hollow silica nanoparticles (HSNPs), gated with peptide nucleic acid (PNA) and ATP aptamer (ATPApt) and loaded with doxorubicin (DOX). After formulation of a smart drug delivery nanosystem (HSNPs/DOX/ATPApt/PNA/HA), drug release, cytotoxicity, uptake, and in vivo anti-tumor properties were studied. Drug release test showed the controlled release of encapsulated DOX in response to ATP content. MTT and flow cytometry indicated that HA could improve both cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of the formulation. Moreover, HA-targeted formulation enhanced both the survival rate and tumor inhibition in the tumor-bearing mice compared with free DOX (P < 0.05). Our findings confirmed that HA-targeted nanoformulation, gated with PNA/aptamer and loaded with DOX can provide a novel therapeutic platform with great potential for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Tumor cells with diverse phenotypes and biological behaviors are influenced by stromal cells through secretory factors or direct cell-cell contact. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by extensive desmoplasia with fibroblasts as the major cell type. In the present study, we observe enrichment of myofibroblasts in a juxta-tumoral position with tumor cells undergoing epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) that facilitates invasion and correlates with a worse clinical prognosis in PDAC patients. Direct cell-cell contacts forming heterocellular aggregates between fibroblasts and tumor cells are detected in primary pancreatic tumors and circulating tumor microemboli (CTM). Mechanistically, ATP1A1 overexpressed in tumor cells binds to and reorganizes ATP1A1 of fibroblasts that induces calcium oscillations, NF-κB activation, and activin A secretion. Silencing ATP1A1 expression or neutralizing activin A secretion suppress tumor invasion and colonization. Taken together, these results elucidate the direct interplay between tumor cells and bound fibroblasts in PDAC progression, thereby providing potential therapeutic opportunities for inhibiting metastasis by interfering with these cell-cell interactions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nanoscale coordination polymers (nCP) have exhibited a great potential in designing of the theranostic platforms in the latest years. However, they have low selectivity for cancerous tissues and require to be modified for becoming effective cancer therapeutics. In this study, a novel nanoscale pH and redox-responsive coordination polymer with high selectivity was synthesized. METHODS The nCP was synthesized by iron(III) chloride and dithiodiglycolic acid. After loading the prepared nCP with doxorubicin (DOX), nCP was coated with an amphiphilic copolymer composed of α-tocopheryl succinate-polyethylene glycol (VEP). Next, AS1411 aptamer was decorated on the VEP shell of the DOX-loaded nCP (Apt-VEP-nCP@DOX) to provide a guided drug delivery platform. RESULTS The prepared platform demonstrated high DOX loading capacity and pH and redox-responsive DOX release. Apt-VEP-nCP@DOX displayed greater DOX internalization and toxicity towards breast cancer cells of 4T1 and MCF7 compared with that of non-targeted VEP-nCP@DOX. Also, the intravenous injection of Apt-VEP-nCP@DOX (a single dose) considerably suppressed the 4T1 tumor growth in vivo. Moreover, Apt-VEP-nCP@DOX showed outstanding magnetic resonance (MR) imaging capability for 4T1 adenocarcinoma diagnosis in ectopic 4T1 tumor model in mice. CONCLUSIONS The developed innovative intelligent Apt-VEP-nCP@DOX could serve as a safe and biocompatible theranostic platform appropriate for further translational purposes against breast cancer.

Abstract
Na/K-ATPase (NKA) is a p-type transmembrane enzyme formed by three different subunits (α, β, and γ gamma). Primarily responsible for transporting sodium and potassium through the cell membrane, it also plays a critical role in intracellular signaling. The activation of diverse intracellular pathways may trigger cell death, survival, or even cell proliferation. Changes in the NKA functions or expression in isoforms subunits impact pathological conditions, such as cancer. The NKA function affects cell adhesion, motility, and migration, which are different in the physiological and pathological states. All enzyme subunits take part in the cell adhesion process, with the β subunit being the most studied. Thus, herein we aim to highlight NKA' central role in cell adhesion, motility, and migration in cancer cells.
