Lim SH, Wong TW, Tay WX. Overcoming colloidal nanoparticle aggregation in biological milieu for cancer therapeutic delivery: Perspectives of materials and particle design. Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 325:103094. [PMID: 38359673 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2024.103094] [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: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024]
Abstract
Nanoparticles as cancer therapeutic carrier fail in clinical translation due to complex biological environments in vivo consisting of electrolytes and proteins which render nanoparticle aggregation and unable to reach action site. This review identifies the desirable characteristics of nanoparticles and their constituent materials that prevent aggregation from site of administration (oral, lung, injection) to target site. Oral nanoparticles should ideally be 75-100 nm whereas the size of pulmonary nanoparticles minimally affects their aggregation. Nanoparticles generally should carry excess negative surface charges particularly in fasting state and exert steric hindrance through surface decoration with citrate, anionic surfactants and large polymeric chains (polyethylene glycol and polyvinylpyrrolidone) to prevent aggregation. Anionic as well as cationic nanoparticles are both predisposed to protein corona formation as a function of biological protein isoelectric points. Their nanoparticulate surface composition as such should confer hydrophilicity or steric hindrance to evade protein corona formation or its formation should translate into steric hindrance or surface negative charges to prevent further aggregation. Unexpectedly, smaller and cationic nanoparticles are less prone to aggregation at cancer cell interface favoring endocytosis whereas aggregation is essential to enable nanoparticles retention and subsequent cancer cell uptake in tumor microenvironment. Present studies are largely conducted in vitro with simplified simulated biological media. Future aggregation assessment of nanoparticles in biological fluids that mimic that of patients is imperative to address conflicting materials and designs required as a function of body sites in order to realize the future clinical benefits.

Abstract
Understanding nanoparticle-cell interactions at single-nanoparticle and single-cell resolutions is crucial to improving the design of next-generation nanoparticles for safer, more effective, and more efficient applications in nanomedicine. This review focuses on recent advances in the continuous high-throughput analysis of nanoparticle-cell interactions at the single-cell level. We highlight and discuss the current trends in continual flow high-throughput methods for analyzing single cells, such as advanced flow cytometry techniques and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry methods, as well as their intersection in the form of mass cytometry. This review further discusses the challenges and opportunities with current single-cell analysis approaches and provides proposed directions for innovation in the high-throughput analysis of nanoparticle-cell interactions.

Abstract
Flow cytometry (FC) is a versatile tool with excellent capabilities to detect and measure multiple characteristics of a population of cells or particles. Notable advancements in in vivo photoacoustic FC, coherent Raman FC, microfluidic FC, and so on, have been achieved in the last two decades, which endows FC with new functions and expands its applications in basic research and clinical practice. Advanced FC broadens the tools available to researchers to conduct research involving cancer detection, microbiology (COVID-19, HIV, bacteria, etc.), and nucleic acid analysis. This review presents an overall picture of advanced flow cytometers and provides not only a clear understanding of their mechanisms but also new insights into their practical applications. We identify the latest trends in this area and aim to raise awareness of advanced techniques of FC. We hope this review expands the applications of FC and accelerates its clinical translation.

Abstract
Although a wide variety of nanoparticles (NPs) have been engineered for use as disease markers or drug delivery agents, the number of nanomedicines in clinical use has hitherto remained small. A key obstacle in nanomedicine development is the lack of a deep mechanistic understanding of NP interactions in the bio-environment. Here, the focus is on the biomolecular adsorption layer (protein corona), which quickly enshrouds a pristine NP exposed to a biofluid and modifies the way the NP interacts with the bio-environment. After a brief introduction of NPs for nanomedicine, proteins, and their mutual interactions, research aimed at addressing fundamental properties of the protein corona, specifically its mono-/multilayer structure, reversibility and irreversibility, time dependence, as well as its role in NP agglomeration, is critically reviewed. It becomes quite evident that the knowledge of the protein corona is still fragmented, and conflicting results on fundamental issues call for further mechanistic studies. The article concludes with a discussion of future research directions that should be taken to advance the understanding of the protein corona around NPs. This knowledge will provide NP developers with the predictive power to account for these interactions in the design of efficacious nanomedicines.

Abstract
As a compact interferometry technique, self-mixing interferometry (SMI) is a promising tool for micro particle detection in biochemical analysis and the monitoring of laser manufacturing processing, and currently SMI based micro particle detection is attracting increasing attention. However, unlike the typical displacement or vibration measurement driven by a macro target, only a small amount of literature has targeted the SMI effect induced by a single micro moving particle. In this paper, two numerical models were investigated to describe the characteristics of the signal sparked by individual particle. We compared the measurement results with the two models' simulations in three signal characteristic aspects: the temporal waveform, frequency spectrum, and phase profile. From these results, we established that both amplitude modulation and frequency modulation effects apply under different conditions in the self-mixing process. And for the first time, we analyzed the effect of the laser illumination spot size on the particle-induced SMI signal features with two optical arrangements. When the laser beam size is larger than the particle size, the signal bursts are likely to result from frequency modulation, and vice versa. Our results can improve the capability of SMI technology in particle size discrimination and particle sorting.

Abstract
Since most current studies have focused on exploring how phagocyte internalization of drug-loaded nanovesicles by macrophages would affect the function and therapeutic effects of infiltrated neutrophils or monocytes, research has evaluated the specificity of the inhaled nanovesicles for targeting various phagocytes subpopulations. In this study, liposomes with various charges (including neutral (L1), anionic (L2), and cationic at inflammatory sites (L3)) were constructed to investigate how particle charge determined their interactions with key phagocytes (including macrophages and neutrophils) in acute lung injury (ALI) models and to establish correlations with their biofate and overall anti-inflammatory effect. Our results clearly indicated that neutrophils were capable of rapidly sequestering L3 with a 3.2-fold increase in the cellular liposome distribution, compared to that in AMs, while 70.5% of L2 were preferentially uptaken by alveolar macrophages (AMs). Furthermore, both AMs and the infiltrated neutrophils performed as the potential vesicles for the inhaled liposomes to prolong their lung retention in ALI models, whereas AMs function as sweepers to recognize and process liposomes in the healthy lung. Finally, inhaled roflumilast-loaded macrophage or neutrophil preferential liposomes (L2 or L3) exhibited optimal anti-inflammatory effect because of the decreased AMs phagocytic capacity or the prolonged circulation times of neutrophils. Such findings will be beneficial in exploiting a potential pathway to specifically manipulate lung phagocyte functions in lung inflammatory diseases where these cells play crucial roles.

Abstract
Flow cytometry is a sophisticated technology used widely in both basic research and as a routine tool in clinical diagnosis. The technology has progressed from single parameter detection in the 1970s and 1980s to high end multicolor analysis, with currently 30 parameters detected simultaneously, allowing the identification and purification of rare subpopulations of cells of interest. Flow cytometry continues to evolve and expand to facilitate the investigation of new diagnostic and therapeutic avenues. The present review gives an overview of basic theory and instrumentation, presents and compares the advantages and disadvantages of conventional, spectral and imaging flow cytometry as well as mass cytometry. Current methodologies and applications in both research, pre- and clinical settings are discussed, as well as potential limitations and future evolution. This finding encourages the reader to promote such relationship between basic science, diagnosis and multidisciplinary approach since the standard methods have limitations (e.g., in differentiating the cells after staining). Moreover, such path inspires future cytometry specialists develop new/alternative frontiers between pre- and clinical diagnosis and be more flexible in designing the study for both human as well as veterinary medicine.

Abstract
Superparamagnetic ferrite nanoparticles coated with a polymer layer are widely used for biomedical applications. The objective of this work is to design nanoparticles as a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) temperature-sensitive contrast agent. Copper-zinc ferrite nanoparticles coated with a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) layer are synthesized using a one-step thermal decomposition method in a polymer matrix. The resulting nanoparticles are stable in water and biocompatible. Using Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetometry, it was determined that the grown nanoparticles exhibit superparamagnetic properties. Embedding these particles into an agarose gel resulted in significant modification of water proton relaxation times T 1, T 2, and T 2* determined by nuclear magnetic resonance measurements. The results of the spin-echo T 2-weighted MR images of an aqueous phantom with embedded Cu0.08Zn0.54Fe2.38O4 nanoparticles in the presence of a strong temperature gradient show a strong correlation between the temperature and the image intensity. The presented results support the hypothesis that CuZn ferrite nanoparticles can be used as a contrast agent for MRI thermometry.

Abstract
In vivo flow cytometry (IVFC) was first designed to detect circulating cells in a mouse ear. It allows real-time monitoring of cells in peripheral blood with no need to draw blood. The IVFC field has made great progress during the last decade with the development of fluorescence, photoacoustic, and multiphoton microscopy. Moreover, the application of IVFC is no longer restricted to circulating cells. IVFC based on fluorescence and photoacoustic are most widely applied in biomedical research. Methods based on fluorescence are often used for object monitoring in superficial vessels, while methods based on photoacoustics have an advantage of label-free monitoring in deep vessels. In this chapter, we introduce technical points and key applications of IVFC. We focus on the principles, labeling strategies, sensitivity, and biomedical applications of the technology. In addition, we summarize this chapter and discuss important research directions of IVFC in the future.

Abstract
Blood circulation is the key parameter that determines the in vivo efficiency of nanoagents. Despite clinical success of the stealth liposomal agents with their inert and shielded surfaces, a great number of non-stealth nanomaterials is being developed due to their potential of enhanced functionality. By harnessing surface phenomena, such agents can offer advanced control over drug release through intricately designed nanopores, catalysis-propelled motion, computer-like analysis of several disease markers for precise target identification, etc. However, investigation of pharmacokinetic behavior of these agents becomes a great challenge due to ultra-short circulation (usually around several minutes) and impossibility to use the invasive blood-sampling techniques. Accordingly, the data on circulation of such agents has been scarce and irregular. Here, we demonstrate high-throughput capabilities of the developed magnetic particle quantification technique for nanoparticle circulation measurements and present a comprehensive investigation of factors that affect blood circulation of the non-stealth nanoparticles. Namely, we studied the following 9 factors: particle size, zeta-potential, coating, injection dose, repetitive administration, induction of anesthesia, mice strain, absence/presence of tumors, tumor size. Our fundamental findings demonstrate potential ways to extend the half-life of the agents in blood thereby giving them a better chance of achieving their goal in the organism. The study will be valuable for design of the next generation nanomaterials with advanced biomedical functionality.

Abstract
In the field of nanomedicine, nanostructured nanoparticles (NPs) made of self-assembling prodrugs emerged in the recent years with promising properties. In particular, squalene-based drug nanoparticles have already shown their efficiency through in vivo experiments. However, a complete pattern of their stability and interactions in the blood stream is still lacking. In this work we assess the behavior of squalene-adenosine (SQAd) nanoparticles - whose neuroprotective effect has already been demonstrated in murine models - in the presence of fetal bovine serum (FBS) and of bovine serum albumin (BSA), the main protein of blood plasma. Extensive physicochemical characterizations were performed using Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS), cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (Cryo-TEM), circular dichroism (CD), steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy (SSFS) and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) as well as in silico by means of ensemble docking simulations with human serum albumin (HSA). Significant changes in the colloidal stability of the nanoparticles in the presence of serum albumin were observed. SANS, CD and SSFS analyses demonstrated an interaction between SQAd and BSA, with a partial disassembly of the nanoparticles in the presence of BSA and the formation of a complex between SQAd and BSA. The interaction free energy of SQAd nanoparticles with BSA derived from ITC experiments, is about -8 kcal mol-1 which is further supported in silico by ensemble docking simulations. Overall, our results show that serum albumin partially disassembles SQAd nanoparticles by extracting individual SQAd monomers from them. As a consequence, the SQAd nanoparticles would act as a circulating reservoir in the blood stream. The approach developed in this study could be extended to other soft organic nanoparticles.
