Abstract
Nanoparticles, especially gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) have gained increasing interest in biomedical applications. Used for disease prevention, diagnosis and therapies, its significant advantages in therapeutic efficacy and safety have been the main target of interest. Its application in immune system prevention, stability in physiological environments and cell membranes, low toxicity and optimal bioperformances are critical to the success of engineered nanomaterials. Its unique optical properties are great attractors. Recently, several physical and chemical methods for coating these NPs have been widely used. Biomolecules such as DNA, RNA, peptides, antibodies, proteins, carbohydrates and biopolymers, among others, have been widely used in coatings of Au NPs for various biomedical applications, thus increasing their biocompatibility while maintaining their biological functions. This review mainly presents a general and representative view of the different types of coatings and Au NP functionalization using various biomolecules, strategies and functionalization mechanisms.

Tumor microenvironment-activated, immunomodulatory nanosheets loaded with copper(II) and 5-FU for synergistic chemodynamic therapy and chemotherapy. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 653:137-147. [PMID: 37713912 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.09.042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023]
Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME) has a redox state that differs greatly from normal tissues, as characterized by the overexpression of H2O2 and glutathione (GSH). To address the GSH-related restrictions on chemodynamic therapy (CDT) efficacy, we have developed a Cu(II)-based CDT strategy. In this study, a novel organic-inorganic hybrid drug delivery system (LDH/HA/5-FU) was conceived and prepared by the intercalation of 5-FU into the interlayer of copper-aluminum layered double hydroxide (CuAl-LDH) via ion exchange strategy and the adsorption of hyaluronic acid (HA) on the surface of CuAl-LDH. Taking advantage of the pH-degradable property of CuAl-LDH and the CD44-targeting property of HA, the formed LDH/HA/5-FU nanosheets could specifically target tumor cells' overexpressing CD44 receptor, rapidly release Cu(II) and 5-FU in tumor cells, inducing tumor cell apoptosis and cuproptosis, and long-term intracellular GSH depletion and toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) generation could be achieved through the cyclic catalytic reaction of Cu(I)/Cu(II). Meanwhile, peritumoral injection of LDH/HA/5-FU nanosheets might function as an adjuvant to increase the levels of antitumor tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and T cells. In vivo experiments further verified that the intelligently designed LDH/HA/5-FU nanosheets successfully promoted the immune systems, with an excellent inhibition efficacy towards tumors by combining Cu-based CDT and chemotherapy, showing promising potential for solid tumor treatments.

Abstract
This research presents an evaluation of a hybrid material based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), stabilized with the thiol 3-mercapto-propanesulfonate (3MPS) and loaded with the methotrexate drug (MTX). The AuNPs-3MPS-MTX nanosystem was tested for the treatment of cervical cancer and melanoma, using the B16-F10 melanoma and HeLa cell lines. The tests performed on cell cultures assessed the efficiency of the studied nanosystem on tumor cells, as well as its toxicology.
