Singh D, Sharma Y, Dheer D, Shankar R. Stimuli responsiveness of recent biomacromolecular systems (concept to market): A review. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 261:129901. [PMID: 38316328 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129901] [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: 10/13/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/07/2024]
Abstract
Stimuli responsive delivery systems, also known as smart/intelligent drug delivery systems, are specialized delivery vehicles designed to provide spatiotemporal control over drug release at target sites in various diseased conditions, including tumor, inflammation and many others. Recent advances in the design and development of a wide variety of stimuli-responsive (pH, redox, enzyme, temperature) materials have resulted in their widespread use in drug delivery and tissue engineering. The aim of this review is to provide an insight of recent nanoparticulate drug delivery systems including polymeric nanoparticles, dendrimers, lipid-based nanoparticles and the design of new polymer-drug conjugates (PDCs), with a major emphasis on natural along with synthetic commercial polymers used in their construction. Special focus has been placed on stimuli-responsive polymeric materials, their preparation methods, and the design of novel single and multiple stimuli-responsive materials that can provide controlled drug release in response a specific stimulus. These stimuli-sensitive drug nanoparticulate systems have exhibited varying degrees of substitution with enhanced in vitro/in vivo release. However, in an attempt to further increase drug release, new dual and multi-stimuli based natural polymeric nanocarriers have been investigated which respond to a mixture of two or more signals and are awaiting clinical trials. The translation of biopolymeric directed stimuli-sensitive drug delivery systems in clinic demands a thorough knowledge of its mechanism and drug release pattern in order to produce affordable and patient friendly products.

Food Chem 2024; 432:137184. [PMID: 37633137 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 08/01/2023] [Accepted: 08/15/2023] [Indexed: 08/28/2023]
Abstract
Starch and modified starch, spanning various structural levels, are comprehensively reviewed, with a special emphasis on the advancement of starch and its derivative-based delivery systems for bioactive substances. The pivotal aspect highlighted is the controlled release of active ingredients by starch-based delivery systems with distinct hierarchical structures. At the molecular level, diverse categories of starch degradation products, such as dextrin and highly branched starch, serve as versatile amphiphilic carriers for encapsulating active ingredients. At the level of helical structure, the distinctive configuration of the starch-guest complex partly determines the mechanism of controlled release for diverse active components. At the crystal and particle structural level, starch assumes the role of a carrier, effectively modulating the release of active substances, and enhances the innate physiological activity of different active components. As a natural polymer molecule, starch can also generate hydrogel materials in polymer form, expanding its utility in the fields of food, materials, and even medicine.

Bull Exp Biol Med 2023; 176:227-231.

Abstract
Intravenous injection of cationic starch conjugated with sterically hindered phenol (terpenophenol) to guinea pigs did not increase hemorrhagic activity (in doses of 2 and 4 mg/kg) and plasma clotting time in activated partial thromboplastin time and prothrombin time tests (in a dose of 4 mg/kg) in comparison with administration of physiological saline. Intravenous injection of the cationic starch conjugate with the highest content of terpenophenol fragments (4.1%wt) in a dose of 2 mg/kg to guinea pigs leads to a decrease in hemorrhagic activity by 4 times in comparison with the control.

Abstract
People are exploring the potential application of 3D printing in food, biomedicine and environment, but it is urgent to find suitable bio-ink. Bio-ink compounded with starch and hydrocolloid can not only improve the rheology, structure and printability of starch-based edible bio-ink, but also endow it with other functional characteristics, so that it can be applied to food, biomedicine and even the environment, and meet the strategic needs of national health, green and sustainable development. In this paper, hydrocolloids are reviewed as potential means to regulate the physicochemical properties of starch, which endows it with good printability and presents excellent printing products. The specific applications of the bio-ink in the fields of food, biomedicine and environment in hypoglycemic, lipid-lowering, swallowable food, delivery, intelligent materials, and bio-sensor are also discussed. Then, the challenges and future development trends of realizing large-scale application are prospected. Proper physicochemical properties of starch-hydrocolloid are positively correlated with printability. The presentation of excellent printability has realized the application in different fields, not only satisfies most people, but also create benefits for some specific people. This review is expected to provide some theoretical guidance for the further development of 3D printing technology and its large-scale application.

Abstract
Starch has attracted a lot of attention because it is biodegradable, renewable, nontoxic and low cost. By adding antibacterial substances to starch, starch-based materials have antibacterial properties. The composite with other materials can improve the comprehensive performance of starch-based materials, thus broadening the application field of the material. In this paper, we focus on antibacterial starch-based materials and review their preparation and applications. It was found that antibacterial starch-based materials were most widely used in packaging, followed by medicine, and the research on smart starch-based materials was relatively less. This review may provide some reference value for subsequent studies of starch-based materials.

Natural Biopolymers as Smart Coating Materials of Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles for Drug Delivery. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020447. [PMID: 36839771 PMCID: PMC9965229 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15020447] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2022] [Revised: 01/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
In recent years, the functionalization of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) with different types of responsive pore gatekeepers have shown great potential for the formulation of drug delivery systems (DDS) with minimal premature leakage and site-specific controlled release. New nanotechnological approaches have been developed with the objective of utilizing natural biopolymers as smart materials in drug delivery applications. Natural biopolymers are sensitive to various physicochemical and biological stimuli and are endowed with intrinsic biodegradability, biocompatibility, and low immunogenicity. Their use as biocompatible smart coatings has extensively been investigated in the last few years. This review summarizes the MSNs coating procedures with natural polysaccharides and protein-based biopolymers, focusing on their application as responsive materials to endogenous stimuli. Biopolymer-coated MSNs, which conjugate the nanocarrier features of mesoporous silica with the biocompatibility and controlled delivery provided by natural coatings, have shown promising therapeutic outcomes and the potential to emerge as valuable candidates for the selective treatment of various diseases.
