[PMID: 38680315 PMCID: PMC11044229 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c09131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Investigating the interaction between liposomes and proteins is of paramount importance in the development of liposomal formulations with real potential for bench-to-bedside transfer. Upon entering the body, proteins are immediately adsorbed on the liposomal surface, changing the nanovehicles' biological identity, which has a significant impact on their biodistribution and pharmacokinetics and ultimately on their therapeutic effect. Albumin is the most abundant plasma protein and thus usually adsorbs immediately on the liposomal surface. We herein report a comprehensive investigation on the adsorption of model protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) onto liposomal vesicles containing the zwitterionic lipid 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), in combination with either cholesterol (CHOL) or the cationic lipid 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammoniumpropane (DOTAP). While many studies regarding protein adsorption on the surface of liposomes with different compositions have been performed, to the best of our knowledge, the differential responses of CHOL and DOTAP upon albumin adsorption on vesicles have not yet been investigated. UV-vis spectroscopy and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) revealed a strong influence of the phospholipid membrane composition on protein adsorption. Hence, it was found that DOTAP-containing vesicles adsorb proteins more robustly but also aggregate in the presence of BSA, as confirmed by DLS and TEM. Separation of liposome-protein complexes from unadsorbed proteins performed by means of centrifugation and size exclusion chromatography (SEC) was also investigated. Our results show that neither method can be regarded as a golden experimental setup to study the protein corona of liposomes. Yet, SEC proved to be more successful in the separation of unbound proteins, although the amount of lipid loss upon liposome elution was higher than expected. In addition, coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations were employed to ascertain key membrane parameters, such as the membrane thickness and area per lipid. Overall, this study highlights the importance of surface charge and membrane fluidity in influencing the extent of protein adsorption. We hope that our investigation will be a valuable contribution to better understanding protein-vesicle interactions for improved nanocarrier design.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) continues to be one of the most prevalent and deadliest forms of cancer worldwide, despite notable advancements in its management. The prognosis for metastatic CRC remains discouraging, with a relative 5-year survival rate for stage IV CRC patients. Conventional treatments for advanced malignancies such as chemotherapy, often face limitations in effectively targeting cancer cells resulting in off-target distribution and significant side effects. In the quest for better strategies, researchers have explored numerous alternatives. Among these, nanoparticles (NPs) specifically liposomes have emerged as one of the most promising candidates in developing targeted delivery systems for cancer therapeutics. This review discusses the current approaches employing functionalised liposomes to overcome major biological barriers in therapeutics delivery for CRC treatment. We have also shared our perspectives on the technological development of liposomes for future clinical use and highlighted a few useful insights on the material choices for future research work in CRC.

Novel liposomal glatiramer acetate: Preparation and immunomodulatory evaluation in murine model of multiple sclerosis. Int J Pharm 2023; 648:123620.

Abstract
The frequent administration rate required for Glatiramer acetate (GA), a first-line therapy for Multiple sclerosis (MS), poses patient compliance issues. Only a small portion of the subcutaneously administered GA is available for phagocytosis by macrophages, as most of it is hydrolyzed at its administration site or excreted renally. To unravel these hurdles, we have prepared liposomal formulations of GA through thin film-hydration method plus extrusion. The clinical and histopathological efficacy of GA-loaded liposomes were assessed in prophylactic and therapeutic manners on murine model of MS (experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE)). The selected GA liposomal formulation showed favorable size (275 nm on average), high loading efficiency, and high macrophage localization. Moreover, administration of GA-liposomes in mice robustly suppressed the inflammatory responses and decreased the inflammatory and demyelinated lesion regions in CNS compared to the free GA with subsequent reduction of the EAE clinical score. Our study indicated that liposomal GA could be served as a reliable nanomedicine-based platform to hopefully curb MS-related aberrant autoreactive immune responses with higher efficacy, longer duration of action, fewer administration frequencies, and higher delivery rate to macrophages. This platform has the potential to be introduced as a vaccine for MS after clinical translation and merits further investigations.

Abstract
Introduction: Intracranial stents are of paramount importance in managing cerebrovascular disorders. Nevertheless, the currently employed drug-eluting stents, although effective in decreasing in-stent restenosis, might impede the re-endothelialization process within blood vessels, potentially leading to prolonged thrombosis development and restenosis over time. Methods: This study aims to construct a multifunctional bioactive coating to enhance the biocompatibility of the stents. Salvianolic acid B (SALB), a bioactive compound extracted from Salvia miltiorrhiza, exhibits potential for improving cardiovascular health. We utilized dopamine as the base and adhered chitosan-coated SALB microspheres onto nickel-titanium alloy flat plates, resulting in a multifunctional drug coating. Results: By encapsulating SALB within chitosan, the release period of SALB was effectively prolonged, as evidenced by the in vitro drug release curve showing sustained release over 28 days. The interaction between the drug coating and blood was examined through experiments on water contact angle, clotting time, and protein adsorption. Cellular experiments showed that the drug coating stimulates the proliferation, adhesion, and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Discussion: These findings indicate its potential to promote re-endothelialization. In addition, the bioactive coating effectively suppressed smooth muscle cells proliferation, adhesion, and migration, potentially reducing the occurrence of neointimal hyperplasia and restenosis. These findings emphasize the exceptional biocompatibility of the newly developed bioactive coating and demonstrate its potential clinical application as an innovative strategy to improve stent therapy efficacy. Thus, this coating holds great promise for the treatment of cerebrovascular disease.

Abstract
Cell surface receptors facilitate signaling and nutrient uptake. These processes are dynamic, requiring receptors to be actively recycled by endocytosis. Due to their differential expression in disease states, receptors are often the target of drug-carrier particles, which are adorned with ligands that bind specifically to receptors. These targeted particles are taken into the cell by multiple routes of internalization, where the best-characterized pathway is clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Most studies of particle uptake have utilized bulk assays rather than observing individual endocytic events. As a result, the detailed mechanisms of particle uptake remain obscure. To address this gap, we employed a live-cell imaging approach to study the uptake of individual liposomes as they interact with clathrin-coated structures. By tracking individual internalization events, we find that the size of liposomes rather than the density of the ligands on their surfaces primarily determines their probability of uptake. Interestingly, targeting has the greatest impact on endocytosis of liposomes of intermediate diameters, with the smallest and largest liposomes being internalized or excluded, respectively, regardless of whether they are targeted. These findings, which highlight a previously unexplored limitation of targeted delivery, can be used to design more effective drug carriers.

Biophysical interactions of mixed lipid-polymer nanoparticles incorporating curcumin: Potential as antibacterial agent. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 144:213200.

Abstract
The technology of lipid nanoparticles has a long history in drug delivery, which begins with the discovery of liposomes by Alec D Bangham in the 1960s. Since then, numerous studies have been conducted on these systems, and several nanomedicinal products that utilize them have entered the market, with the latest being the COVID-19 vaccines. Despite their success, many aspects of their biophysical behavior are still under investigation. At the same time, their combination with other classes of biomaterials to create more advanced platforms is a promising endeavor. Herein, we developed mixed lipid-polymer nanoparticles with incorporated curcumin as a drug delivery system for therapy, and we studied its interactions with various biosystems. Initially, the nanoparticle physicochemical properties were investigated, where their size, size distribution, surface charge, morphology, drug incorporation and stability were assessed. The incorporation of the drug molecule was approximately 99.8 % for a formulated amount of 10 % by weight of the total membrane components and stable in due time. The association of the nanoparticles with human serum albumin and the effect that this brings upon their properties was studied by several biophysical techniques, including light scattering, thermal analysis and circular dichroism. As a biocompatibility assessment, interactions with erythrocyte membranes and hemolysis induced by the nanoparticles were also studied, with empty nanoparticles being more toxic than drug-loaded ones at high concentrations. Finally, interactions with bacterial membrane proteins of Staphylococcus aureus and the antibacterial effect of the nanoparticles were evaluated, where the effect of curcumin was improved when incorporated inside the nanoparticles. Overall, the developed mixed nanoparticles are promising candidates for the delivery of curcumin to infectious and other types of diseases.

Abstract
In nanomedicine, hybrid nanomaterials stand out for providing new insights in both the diagnosis and treatment of several diseases. Once administered, engineered nanoparticles (NPs) interact with biological molecules, and the nature of this interaction might directly interfere with the biological fate and action of the NPs. In this work, we synthesized a hybrid magnetic nanostructure, with antibacterial and antitumoral potential applications, composed of a magnetite core covered by silver NPs, and coated with a modified chitosan polymer. As magnetite NPs readily oxidize to maghemite, we investigated the structural properties of the NPs after addition of the two successive layers using Mössbauer spectroscopy. Then, the structural characteristics of the NPs were correlated to their interaction with albumin, the major blood protein, to evidence the consequences of its binding on NP properties and protein retention. Thermodynamic parameters of the NPs–albumin interaction were determined. We observed that the more stable NPs (coated with modified chitosan) present a lower affinity for albumin in comparison to pure magnetite and magnetite/silver hybrid NPs. Surface properties were key players at the NP–biological interface. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that demonstrates a correlation between the structural properties of complex hybrid NPs and their interaction with albumin.

Abstract
Cationic carbon dots (CCDs) are a promising alternative to gene-delivery systems, and good biosafety levels are crucial for their in vivo use. In this study, spherical and monodispersed CCDs with an average surface potential of +28.7 mV were prepared using sucrose and glutamate (denoted SG-CCDs) using a one-pot autoclave-assisted method. Molecular interactions between the SG-CCDs and four major human serum proteins (albumin, immunoglobulin G, fibrinogen, and transferrin) were investigated. The results were further verified on human serum, and the effect of the SG-CCDs on in vitro blood coagulation was examined. The results showed that the fluorescence of human serum was clearly quenched by the SG-CCDs through a dynamic collision mechanism. Moreover, SG-CCDs at a concentration of 20 μM exhibited minor effects on the secondary structure of human serum. The activated partial thromboplastin and prothrombin time as well as the fibrinogen concentration were not changed, indicating that the SG-CCDs did not interfere with the coagulation process. This study provided an understandable background on the behaviour of CCDs in clinical applications.

Abstract
Aim: To improve the efficacy of poly-ethylene glycol (PEG)ylated liposomes coloaded with doxorubicin and vincristine against triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: The combinatorial index of the drugs was established using the Chou-Talalay method in MDA-MB-231 and A549 cell lines. The most effective ratio was co-encapsulated in factorial design optimized nanoliposomes which were characterized for similarity to clinical standard and evaluated in vitro and in vivo for therapeutic efficacy. Results & conclusion: The formulation exhibited more than 95% co-encapsulation, a size of 95.74 ± 2.65 nm and zeta potential of -9.17 ± 1.19 mV while having no significant differences in physicochemical and biochemical characteristics as compared with the clinical standard. Efficacy evaluation studies showed significantly improved cytotoxicity and tumor regression compared with liposomal doxorubicin indicating improvement in efficacy against TNBC and NSCLC.

Dual topography of laminin corona on gallium arsenide nanowires. Biointerphases 2020; 15:051007.

Abstract
Nanowires (NWs) are novel nanomaterials with applications in everything from medical implants to solar cells. With increasing number of applications, it is increasingly likely that organisms are exposed to these materials either intentionally or by accident. It is, therefore, important to study their interactions with biological systems and biomolecules. Upon exposure to biological fluids, nanostructure surfaces are quickly covered by a biomolecule corona. The composition of the corona determines the nanostructure's biological fate. Furthermore, upon adsorption, the protein structure can be affected. In order to study the corona morphology, we used two model proteins, laminin of the extracellular matrix and the immune system enzyme myeloperoxidase. We image the protein corona directly by cryo-TEM and enhance resolution by labeling the corona with activated gold nanoparticles. Three-dimensional imaging of the protein corona further increases the resolution and reveals irregularities in corona topography. By doing so, we identified bimodal distribution of spacing between gold nanoparticles and the NW surface for laminin corona at 58 and 85 nm distance from the NWs' surface. The dual topography of the corona is adding a new complexity of the protein corona surface and its interactions with the surrounding biology.

Microfluidic production and characterization of biofunctionalized giant unilamellar vesicles for targeted intracellular cargo delivery. Biomaterials 2020; 264:120203. [PMID: 32987317 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2020.120203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2019] [Revised: 05/27/2020] [Accepted: 06/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Lipid-based vesicles have found widespread applications in the life sciences, allowing for fundamental insights into membrane-based processes in cell biology and as carrier systems for drug delivery purposes. So far, mostly small unilamellar vesicles (SUVs) with diameters of ~100 nm have been applied as carrier systems for biomedical applications. Despite this progress, several systematic limitations have arisen due to SUV dimensions, e.g., the size and total amount of applicable cargo is limited. Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) might offer a pragmatic alternative for efficient cargo delivery. However, due to the lack of reliable high-throughput production technologies for GUV-carrier systems, only little is known about their interaction with cells. Here we present a microfluidic-based mechanical droplet-splitting pipeline for the production of carrier-GUVs with diameters of ~2 μm. The technology developed allows for highly efficient cargo loading and unprecedented control over the biological and physicochemical properties of GUV membranes. By generating differently charged (between -31 and + 28 mV), bioligand-conjugated (e.g. with E-cadherin, NrCam and antibodies) and PEG-conjugated GUVs, we performed a detailed investigation of attractive and repulsive GUV-cell interactions. Fine-tuning of these interactions allowed for targeted cellular GUV delivery. Moreover, we evaluated strategies for intracellular GUV cargo release by lysosomal escape mediated by the pH sensitive lipid DOBAQ, enabling cytoplasmic transmission. The presented GUV delivery technology and the systematic characterization of associated GUV-cell interactions could provide a means for more efficient drug administration and will pave the way for hitherto impossible approaches towards a targeted delivery of advanced cargo such as microparticles, viruses or macromolecular DNA-robots.

Abstract
The ability of drugs to diffuse through the lipid bilayer of cell membranes is important for their metabolism, distribution, and efficacy. In this study, the interaction between phloretin and human serum albumin (HSA) in an L-egg lecithin phosphatidylcholine (PC) liposome suspension was investigated by fluorescence and absorbance spectroscopy. The spectroscopic and fluorescence quenching experiments show that phloretin molecules penetrated into the lumen of the liposome. The partition coefficient of phloretin in the PC liposome suspensions was calculated from fluorescence quenching measurements. The results show that phloretin efficiently quenches the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through a combination of dynamic and static quenching. The values of Gibbs free energy, and the enthalpy and entropic change in the binding process of phloretin with HSA in the PC liposome suspensions were negative, suggesting that the binding process of phloretin and HSA was spontaneous. Hydrogen bonding and van der Waals force interactions play an important role in the interaction between the two molecules. In addition, binding of phloretin to HSA in liposome suspensions was investigated by synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy.

Abstract
Lipid nanocapsules (LNCs) are drug delivery platforms designed for different administration routes including intravenous delivery. Nanocarrier binding with plasma proteins such as albumin is an important factor that influences the pharmacokinetics of the drug and the drug delivery system. The aim of this paper was to characterize LNCs with different surface compositions and hydrophobicities to study their interactions with albumin: binary LNCs [oil-glyceryl trioctanoate (TG) and PEGylated surfactant macrogol 15-hydroxystearate (MHS)] and ternary LNCs (TG, MHS, and Span 80). Span was found to stabilize and decrease the LNC size. The formation of a stable LNC/albumin complex in the ground state was demonstrated. Thermodynamic parameters indicated that complex formation was exothermic and spontaneous, and the interactions involved van der Waals forces and hydrogen bond formation. Ternary LNCs showed higher affinity for albumin than did binary LNCs (affinity constant 10-fold higher). This study is the first report on the thermodynamic mechanisms that lead to the formation of a complex between albumin and organic nanoparticles with different surface architectures.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A novel phosphatidyl nanoprodrug system can be selectively released parent drugs in cancer cells, triggered by the local overexpression of phospholipase D (PLD). This system significantly reduces the intrinsic disadvantages of conventional chemotherapeutic drugs. However, the separation and purification processes of phosphatidyl prodrug, the precursor of phosphatidyl nanoprodrug, have not been established, and the preparation of nanocrystals with good stability and tumor-targeting capability is still challenging.
Results
In this study, we established a successive elution procedure for the phosphatidyl prodrug—phosphatidyl mitoxantrone (PMA), using an initial ten-bed volume of chloroform/methanol/glacial acetic acid/water (26/10/0.8/0.7) (v/v/v/v) followed by a five-bed volume (26/10/0.8/3), with which purity rates of 96.93% and overall yields of 50.35% of PMA were obtained. Moreover, to reduce the intrinsic disadvantages of conventional chemotherapeutic drugs, phosphatidyl nanoprodrug—PMA nanoprodrug (NP@PMA)—was prepared. To enhance their stability, nanoparticles were modified with polyethylene glycol (PEG). We found that nanoprodrugs modified by PEG (NP@PEG–PMA) were stably present in RPMI-1640 medium containing 10% FBS, compared with unmodified nanoprodrug (NP@PMA). To enhance active tumor-targeting efficiency, we modified nanoparticles with an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) peptide (NP@RGD–PEG–PMA). In vitro cytotoxicity assays showed that, compared with the cytotoxicity of NP@PEG–PMA against tumor cells, that of NP@RGD–PEG–PMA was enhanced. Thus, RGD modification may serve to enhance the active tumor-targeting efficiency of a nanoprodrug, thereby increasing its cytotoxicity.
Conclusions
A process for the preparation and purification of novel phosphatidyl prodrugs was successfully established, and the nanoprodrug was modified using PEG for enhanced nanoparticle stability, and using RGD peptide for enhanced active tumor-targeting efficiency. These procedures offer considerable potential in the development of functional antitumor prodrugs.

Abstract
Background Cancer till date remains one of the world's most life threatening disease accompanied by risk of secondary infections. Therefore formulations carrying anticancer drugs which can also decrease the risk of secondary infection are inevitable. Chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin along with flavonoids quercetin and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is simultaneously loaded on liposomal formulation exploiting the amphiphilic property of the liposomes. Results Atomic force microscope imaging reveal the size of liposomal formulation loaded with doxorubicin, quercetin and EGCG to be greater than void liposome confirming the presence of drugs. Liposomal stability is improved by PEGylation; adding to the drug release time in vitro. The charge of phosphatidylcholine is rendered positive by coating the formulation with histone. The average size of the formulation is 342 nm. The encapsulation efficiency of doxorubicin, quercetin and EGCG is found to be 65.8%, 96.8% and 98% respectively. The above formulation demonstrated both anticancer and antimicrobial activity. Conclusion The formulation will provide dual anticancer and antimicrobial therapy thereby evading secondary infection in cancer patients along with chemotherapy.

Abstract
Bio-nano interface investigation models are mainly based on the type of proteins present on corona, bio-nano interaction responses and the evaluation of final outcomes. Due to the extensive diversity in correlative models for investigation of nanoparticles biological responses, a comprehensive model considering different aspects of bio-nano interface from nanoparticles properties to protein corona fingerprints appeared to be essential and cannot be ignored. In order to minimize divergence in studies in the era of bio-nano interface and protein corona with following therapeutic implications, a useful investigation model on the basis of RADAR concept is suggested. The contents of RADAR concept consist of five modules: 1- Reshape of our strategy for synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs), 2- Application of NPs selected based on human fluid, 3- Delivery strategy of NPs selected based on target tissue, 4- Analysis of proteins present on corona using correct procedures and 5- Risk assessment and risk reduction upon the collection and analysis of results to increase drug delivery efficiency and drug efficacy. RADAR grouping strategy for revisiting protein corona phenomenon as a key of success will be discussed with respect to the current state of knowledge.

Abstract
AIM A comprehensive understanding of nanoparticle (NP)-protein interaction (protein corona formation) is required. So far, many factors influencing this interaction have been investigated, like size and ζ potential. However, NPs exposure concentration has always been ignored. Herein, we aim to disclose the correlation of NPs exposure concentration with protein adsorption. MATERIALS & METHODS Four polymeric NPs systems possessing similar sizes (230 ± 20 nm) but varied ζ potentials (-30 ∼ +40 mv) were prepared. Physicochemical properties and protein adsorption upon NP-protein interaction were characterized. RESULTS Protein adsorption capacity and adsorbed protein types were NPs concentration-dependent. CONCLUSION Considering the critical impacts of protein adsorption on NPs delivery, our work could be an urgent warning about the possible risks of dosage adjustment of nanoformulations.
