Abstract
Immunotherapy is an emerging approach for the treatment of solid tumors. Although chemotherapy is generally considered immunosuppressive, specific chemotherapeutic agents can induce tumor immunity. In this study, we developed a targeted, acid-sensitive peptide nanoparticle (DT/Pep1) to deliver doxorubicin (DOX) and triptolide (TPL) to breast cancer cells via the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect and the breast cancer-targeting effect of peptide D8. Compared with administration of the free drugs, treatment with the DT/Pep1 system increased the accumulation of DOX and TPL at the tumor site and achieved deeper penetration into the tumor tissue. In an acidic environment, DT/Pep1 transformed from spherical nanoparticles to aggregates with a high aspect ratio, which successfully extended the retention of the drugs in the tumor cells and bolstered the anticancer effect. In both in vivo and in vitro experiments, DT/Pep1 effectively blocked the cell cycle and induced apoptosis. Importantly, the DT/Pep1 system efficiently suppressed tumor development in mice bearing 4T1 tumors while simultaneously promoting immune system activation. Thus, the results of this study provide a system for breast cancer therapy and offer a novel and promising platform for peptide nanocarrier-based drug delivery.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The development of bimodal imaging probes represents a hot topic of current research. Herein, we deal with developing an innovative bimodal contrast agent enabling fluorescence imaging (FI)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and, simultaneously, consisting of biocompatible nanostructures. Optimized synthesis of advanced protein-embedded bimetallic (APEBM) nanocomposite containing luminescent gold nanoclusters (AuNC) and superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION), suitable for in vivo dual-modal FI/MR imaging is reported. EXPERIMENTS The APEBM nanocomposite was prepared by a specific sequential one-pot green synthetic approach that is optimized to increase metals (Au, Fe) content and, consequently, the imaging ability of the resulting nanostructures. The protein matrix, represented by serum albumin, was intentionally chosen, and used since it creates an efficient protein corona for both types of optically/magnetically-susceptible nanostructures (AuNC, SPION) and ensures biocompatibility of the resulting APEBM nanocomposite although it contains elevated metal concentrations (approx. 1 mg·mL-1 of Au, around 0.3 mg·mL-1 of Fe). In vitro and in vivo imaging was performed. FINDINGS Successful in vivo FI and MRI recorded in healthy mice corroborated the applicability of the APEBM nanocomposite and, simultaneously, served as a proof of concept concerning the potential future exploitation of this new FI/MRI bimodal contrast agent in preclinical and clinical practice.

Abstract
The recent emergence of nanomedicine has revolutionized the therapeutic landscape and necessitated the creation of more sophisticated drug delivery systems. Polymeric nanoparticles sit at the forefront of numerous promising drug delivery designs, due to their unmatched control over physiochemical properties such as size, shape, architecture, charge, and surface functionality. Furthermore, polymeric nanoparticles have the ability to navigate various biological barriers to precisely target specific sites within the body, encapsulate a diverse range of therapeutic cargo and efficiently release this cargo in response to internal and external stimuli. However, despite these remarkable advantages, the presence of polymeric nanoparticles in wider clinical application is minimal. This review will provide a comprehensive understanding of polymeric nanoparticles as drug delivery vehicles. The biological barriers affecting drug delivery will be outlined first, followed by a comprehensive description of the various nanoparticle designs and preparation methods, beginning with the polymers on which they are based. The review will meticulously explore the current performance of polymeric nanoparticles against a myriad of diseases including cancer, viral and bacterial infections, before finally evaluating the advantages and crucial challenges that will determine their wider clinical potential in the decades to come.

Abstract
The applicability of nanomaterials has evolved in biomedical domains thanks to advances in biocompatibility strategies and the mitigation of cytotoxic effects, allowing diagnostics, imaging, and therapeutic approaches. The application of nanoparticles (NP), particularly metal nanoparticles (mNPs), such as gold (Au) and silver (Ag), includes inherent challenges related to the material characteristics, surface modification, and bioconjugation techniques. By tailoring the surface properties through appropriate coating with biocompatible molecules or functionalization with active biomolecules, researchers can reach a harmonious interaction with biological systems or samples (mostly fluids or tissues). Thus, this review highlights the mechanisms associated with the obtention of biocompatible mNP and presents a comprehensive overview of methods that facilitate safe and efficient production. Therefore, we consider this review to be a valuable resource for all researchers navigating this dynamic field.

Abstract
Intracellular delivery of functional biomolecules by using supramolecular polymer nanostructures has gained significant interest. Here, various charged supramolecular ureido-pyrimidinone (UPy)-aggregates were designed and formulated via a simple "mix-and-match" method. The cellular internalization of these UPy-aggregates in the presence or absence of serum proteins by phagocytic and non-phagocytic cells, i.e., THP-1 derived macrophages and immortalized human kidney cells (HK-2 cells), was systematically investigated. In the presence of serum proteins the UPy-aggregates were taken up by both types of cells irrespective of the charge properties of the UPy-aggregates, and the UPy-aggregates co-localized with mitochondria of the cells. In the absence of serum proteins only cationic UPy-aggregates could be effectively internalized by THP-1 derived macrophages, and the internalized UPy-aggregates either co-localized with mitochondria or displayed as vesicular structures. While the cationic UPy-aggregates were hardly internalized by HK-2 cells and could only bind to the membrane of HK-2 cells. With adding and increasing the amount of serum albumin in the cell culture medium, the cationic UPy-aggregates were gradually taken up by HK-2 cells without anchoring on the cell membranes. It is proposed that the serum albumin regulates the cellular internalization of UPy-aggregates. These results provide fundamental insights for the fabrication of supramolecular polymer nanostructures for intracellular delivery of therapeutics.

Abstract
Intravenous (IV) iron-carbohydrate complexes are widely used nanoparticles (NPs) to treat iron deficiency anaemia, often associated with medical conditions such as chronic kidney disease, heart failure and various inflammatory conditions. Even though a plethora of physicochemical characterisation data and clinical studies are available for these products, evidence-based correlation between physicochemical properties of iron-carbohydrate complexes and clinical outcome has not fully been elucidated yet. Studies on other metal oxide NPs suggest that early interactions between NPs and blood upon IV injection are key to understanding how differences in physicochemical characteristics of iron-carbohydrate complexes cause variance in clinical outcomes. We therefore investigated the core-ligand structure of two clinically relevant iron-carbohydrate complexes, iron sucrose (IS) and ferric carboxymaltose (FCM), and their interactions with two structurally different human plasma proteins, human serum albumin (HSA) and fibrinogen, using a combination of cryo-scanning transmission electron microscopy (cryo-STEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Using this orthogonal approach, we defined the nano-structure, individual building blocks and surface morphology for IS and FCM. Importantly, we revealed significant differences in the surface morphology of the iron-carbohydrate complexes. FCM shows a localised carbohydrate shell around its core, in contrast to IS, which is characterised by a diffuse and dynamic layer of carbohydrate ligand surrounding its core. We hypothesised that such differences in carbohydrate morphology determine the interaction between iron-carbohydrate complexes and proteins and therefore investigated the NPs in the presence of HSA and fibrinogen. Intriguingly, IS showed significant interaction with HSA and fibrinogen, forming NP-protein clusters, while FCM only showed significant interaction with fibrinogen. We postulate that these differences could influence bio-response of the two formulations and their clinical outcome. In conclusion, our study provides orthogonal characterisation of two clinically relevant iron-carbohydrate complexes and first hints at their interaction behaviour with proteins in the human bloodstream, setting a prerequisite towards complete understanding of the correlation between physicochemical properties and clinical outcome.

Abstract
Gene therapy is considered to be a valuable strategy for effective cancer treatment. However, the development of effective delivery systems that can specifically deliver gene materials, such as siRNA to tumor tissues plays a critical role in cancer therapy. In the present study, we have developed a novel complex that is based on an electrostatic interaction between cationic polyurethane ionene (CPUI) nanoparticles and an anti-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) siRNA. For active targeting, hyaluronic acid (HA) was used to coat the complexes, which significantly reduced the cytotoxicity of the blank nanocarriers while demonstrating high transport efficiency of the siRNA via the CD44-mediated endocytosis pathway in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The targeted nanocarriers (HA/CPUI/siRNA) showed significantly higher cellular internalization in flow cytometry and confocal microscopy compared with the non-targeted system (CPUI/siRNA). In addition, the incorporation of HA on the surface of the complexes resulted in significantly greater suppression of the STAT3 gene compared to the corresponding non-targeted formulation. Whole-body fluorescence images showed more significant tumor accumulation of the targeted nanocarriers in 4T1 breast tumor-bearing mice. Therefore, HA/CPUI/siRNA nanocarriers are an interesting option for the siRNA-targeted treatment of breast cancer cells.

Abstract
Protein corona has long been a source of concern, as it might impair the targeting efficacy of targeted drug delivery systems. However, engineered up-regulating the adsorption of certain functional serum proteins could provide nanoparticles with specific targeting drug delivery capacity. Herein, apolipoprotein A-I absorption increased nanoparticles (SPC-PLGA NPs), composed with the Food and Drug Administration approved intravenously injectable soybean phosphatidylcholine (SPC) and poly (DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA), were fabricated for enhanced glioma targeting. Due to the high affinity of SPC and apolipoprotein A-I, the percentage of apolipoprotein A-I in the protein corona of SPC-PLGA NPs was 2.19-fold higher than that of nanoparticles without SPC, which made SPC-PLGA NPs have superior glioma targeting ability through binding to scavenger receptor class BI on blood-brain barrier and glioma cells both in vitro and in vivo. SPC-PLGA NPs loaded with paclitaxel could effectively reduce glioma invasion and prolong the survival time of glioma-bearing mice. In conclusion, we provided a good example of the direction of achieving targeting drug delivery based on protein corona regulation.

Abstract
Nanozymes with oxidase or peroxidase-mimicking activity have emerged as a promising alternative for disinfecting resistant pathogens. However, further research and clinical applications of nanozymes are hampered by their low in vivo biosafety and biocompatibility. In this study, inulin-confined gold nanoparticles (IN@AuNP) are synthesized as an antibacterial agent via a straightforward in situ reduction of Au3+ ions by the hydroxyl groups in inulin. The IN@AuNP exhibits both peroxidase-mimicking and oxidase-mimicking catalytic activities, of which the maximum reaction velocity (Vmax) for H2O2 is 2.66 times higher than that of horseradish peroxidase. IN@AuNP can catalyze the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), resulting in effective antibacterial behavior against both Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria. Abundant hydroxyl groups retained in inulin endow the nanozyme with high adhesion to bacteria, reducing the distance between the captured bacteria and ROS, achieving an antibacterial ratio of 100 % within 1 h. Importantly, due to the natural biosafety and non-absorption of the dietary fiber inulin, as well as the inability of inulin-trapped AuNP to diffuse, the IN@AuNP exhibits high biosafety and biocompatibility under physiological conditions. This work is expected to open a new avenue for nanozymes with great clinical application value.

Abstract
Strategic regulatory development is essential to ensure that new innovations in nanotechnology-enabled health products (NHPs) successfully reach the market and benefit patients. Currently, the lack of specific regulatory guidelines for NHPs is considered one of the primary causes of the so-called "valley of death" in these products, impacting both current and future advancements. In this study, we have implemented a methodology to anticipate key trends in NHP development and compare them with the current regulatory landscape applicable to NHPs. This methodology relies on Horizon Scanning, a tool commonly used by policymakers to foresee future needs and proactively shape a regulatory framework tailored to those needs. Through the application of this methodology, different trends in NHP have been identified, notably NHPs for drug delivery and dental applications. Furthermore, the most disruptive elements involve NHPs that are multicomposite and multifunctional, harnessing nano-scale properties to combine therapeutic and diagnostic purposes within a single product. When compared with the regulatory landscape, current regulations are gradually adapting to accommodate emerging trends, with specific guidelines being developed. However, for the most disruptive elements, multicomposite and multifunctional NHPs, their novelty still poses significant regulatory challenges, requiring a strategic development of guidelines by regulatory agencies to ensure their safe and effective integration into healthcare practices. This study underscores the importance of proactive regulatory planning to bridge the gap between NHP innovation and market implementation.

Abstract
Due to the pro-survival effect of mild autophagy, the therapeutic effect of chemo-immunotherapy is unsatisfactory. In addition, the adverse tumour microenvironment (TME), including the lack of antigen presentation, the deficiency of oxygen supply and immunosuppressive cells, results in immune escape and metastasis. Herein, a novel nanoplatform (CS-3BP/PA@DOX) based on the autophagy cascade is proposed for the first time to deliver the chemotherapeutic doxorubicin (DOX) and respiration inhibitor 3-bromopyruvic acid (3BP) to overcome the above obstacles. CS-3BP/PA@DOX exerts a synergistic therapeutic effect to initiate pro-death autophagy and facilitate the antigen presentation process by combining DOX chemotherapy and starvation therapy with 3BP. Additionally, CS-3BP/PA@DOX remodelled the immunosuppressive TME by alleviating hypoxia, damaging dense ECM, and downregulating PD-L1 to enhance antitumour immunity. 3BP was found to promote GSH depletion by inhibiting respiration for the first time, which reduces the chemical resistance of cancer and increases the sensitivity of cells to ROS, providing a new therapeutic direction of 3BP for antitumour treatment. Collectively, this study offers an opportunity to magnify pro-death autophagy, augment antitumour efficacy, facilitate anti-metastatic effects, and boost immune responses.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Conventional therapies lack selectivity and suffer from toxicity and drug resistance, leading to metastasis. To overcome these limitations, a new category of nanomaterials exploiting the tumor characteristics has been developed in cancer nanotherapeutics. Among them, pH, metabolism, and the disrupted architecture of cells can be exploited for theranostic applications. Such nanomaterials can be inorganic nanoparticles with silver ones and gain high attention as diagnostic, therapeutic, and antibacterial compounds. Silver has been linked with triggering the death of cancer cells via DNA damage due to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during photodynamic therapy. Thus, improvement of biocompatibility, modification with targeted agents, and drug conjugation promote the use of silver nanoparticles. In this work, we managed to synthesize hybrid Ag@SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles via a modified sol-gel method by tackling the known etching of silver caused by ammonia by employing different bases of the sol-gel reaction. The bases used in the synthetic route were diethylamine (DEA) and triethylamine (TEA) and were monitored with silver nanoparticles individually from the absorbance peak of silver in the UV-vis region, showing no etching of silver in contrast with ammonia, which is usually used in the sol-gel method. Furthermore, we synthesized biocompatible nanoparticles with anticancer and diagnostic properties toward breast cancer cells and glioblastoma cells. The nanoparticles were characterized both structurally and morphologically. Their biological evaluation suggests minor toxicity toward healthy cells and red blood cells (RBCs). Also, the diagnostic potential of the hybrid nanoparticles was exploited by optical fluorescence microscopy. Therefore, we strongly suggest the investigation of such nanostructures as a dual platform for the diagnosis and therapy of cancer.

Abstract
Biocompatible nanoparticles are very popular in health science research. Biomolecule carriers for wound healing and tissue engineering are two main applications among many others. In many instances, these structures come in direct vicinity of cells and govern cell behaviour and responses. In this study, gelatin nano/submicron structures were synthesized by binary nonsolvent aided coacervation (BNAC) method at pH ranging from 3 to 11 with an intention to employ in skin tissue regeneration. Effect of pH over morphology and the surface composition with respect to its ionic composition were studied. Further, the initial toxicity was assessed against peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). pH 7 was found to be the optimum for synthesis of gelatin nanoparticles (GNPs) with minimum particle size. Positive cell viability of 103.14% for GNPs synthesized at pH 7 was observed. It may be due to the minimum difference between cumulative negative and positive charge (CNCP) ratio of 1.19. Finally, effect of the gelatin nanoparticles over L929 mouse fibroblast cells was assessed through MTT assay. It has resulted in 122.77% cell viability.

Abstract
The quantification of surface charge properties of silica nanoparticles is essential for several applications. To determine these properties, many experimental and theoretical methods have been introduced, which are time-consuming and/or challenging to use. In this study, a first-principles approach is developed to determine the surface charge properties of amorphous silica nanoparticles against the nanoparticle size, pH, and ionic strength without relying on experimental data. An amorphous silica nanoparticle of 1.34 nm diameter is simulated by using integrated molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo methods. A detailed analysis of the nanoparticle structure is provided by analyzing the types of silanol groups on the surface. Moreover, a model is developed to estimate the probability distribution of the surface silanol groups based on the nearest neighbor distances and the diameter of the nanoparticle to determine the number of surface silanols on larger nanoparticles. Thereafter, a computational chemistry approach is used to calculate the acid dissociation constants of the corresponding deprotonation reactions. The calculated constants and the point of zero charge value are in excellent agreement with experiments. The surface charge properties of the nanoparticle with various diameters are then estimated by using a mean-field model at different pH and ionic strength values. The results of the developed model are compared to the Poisson-Boltzmann equation as a reference model. The developed model predictions agree well with the reference model for low and mid-electrolyte concentrations (1 and 10 mM) and small nanoparticles (smaller than 100 nm). However, the developed model seems to qualitatively predict the surface charge properties more accurately than the Poisson-Boltzmann model for high electrolyte concentrations.

Abstract
Carbon dots (CDs) are nanoparticles (NPs) with potential applications in the biomedical field. When in contact with biological fluids, most NPs are covered by a protein corona. As well, upon cell entry, most NP are sequestered in the lysosome. However, the interplay between the lysosome, the protein corona and the biological effects of NPs is still poorly understood. In this context, we investigated the role of the lysosome in the toxicological responses evoked by four cationic CDs exhibiting protonatable or non-protonatable amine groups at their surface, and the associated changes in the CD protein corona. The four CDs accumulated in the lysosome and led to lysosomal swelling, loss lysosome integrity, cathepsin B activation, NLRP3 inflammasome activation, and cell death by pyroptosis in a human macrophage model, but with a stronger effect for CDs with titratable amino groups. The protein corona formed around CDs in contact with serum partially dissociated under lysosomal conditions with subsequent protein rearrangement, as assessed by quantitative proteomic analysis. The residual protein corona still contained binding proteins, catalytic proteins, and proteins involved in the proteasome, glycolysis, or PI3k-Akt KEGG pathways, but with again a more pronounced effect for CDs with titratable amino groups. These results demonstrate an interplay between lysosome, protein corona and biological effects of cationic NPs in link with the titratability of NP surface charges.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury is common in patients who undergo revascularization therapy for myocardial infarction, often leading to cardiac dysfunction. Carbon monoxide (CO) has emerged as a therapeutic molecule due to its beneficial properties such as anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and mitochondrial biogenesis-promoting properties. However, its clinical application is limited due to uncontrolled release, potential toxicity, and poor targeting efficiency. To address these limitations, a peroxynitrite (ONOO-)-triggered CO donor (PCOD585) is utilized to generate a poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)-based, biomimetic CO nanogenerator (M/PCOD@PLGA) that is coated with the macrophage membrane, which could target to the ischemic area and neutralize proinflammatory cytokines. In the ischemic area, local produced ONOO- triggers the continuous release of CO from M/PCOD@PLGA, which efficiently ameliorates MI/R injury by clearing harmful ONOO-, attenuating the inflammatory response, inhibiting cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and promoting mitochondrial biogenesis. This study provides a novel insight into the safe therapeutic use of CO for MI/R injury by utilizing a novel CO donor combined with biomimetic technology. The M/PCOD@PLGA nanogenerator offers targeted delivery of CO to the ischemic area, minimizing potential toxicity and enhancing therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Research on plasma proteomics has received extensive attention, because human plasma is an important sample for disease biomarker research due to its easy clinical accessibility and richness in biological information. Plasma samples contain a large number of leaked proteins from different tissues in the body, immune proteins and communication signal proteins. However, MS signal suppression from high-abundance proteins results in a large number of proteins that are present in low abundance in plasma not being detected by the LC-MS method. This situation makes it more difficult to study neurological diseases, where tissue sampling is difficult and body fluid samples such as plasma or cerebrospinal fluid are both affected by signal suppression. A large number of methods have been developed to deeply mine plasma proteomics information; however, their application limitations remain to some extent. Traditional immuno- or affinity-based depletion, fractionation and subproteome enrichment methods cannot meet the challenges of large clinical cohort applications due to limited time efficiency. In this study, a deep mining strategy of plasma proteomics was established by combing the protein corona formed by deep mining beads (DMB beads, hereafter referred to as magnetic covalent organic frameworks Fe3O4@TpPa-1), DIA-MS detection and the DIA-NN library searching method. By optimizing the enrichment step, mass spectrometry acquisition and data processing, the evaluation results of the deep mining strategy showed the following: depth, the strategy identified and quantified results of 2000+ proteins per plasma sample; stability, more than 87% of the enriched low-abundance proteins had CV < 20%; accuracy, good agreement between measured and theoretical values (1.81/2, 8.68/10, 38.36/50) for the gradient addition of E. coli proteins to a plasma sample; time efficiency, the processing time was reduced from >12h in the traditional method to <5h (incubation 30 min, washing 15 min, reductive/alkylation/digestion/desalting 4 h), and more importantly, 96 samples can be processed simultaneously in combination with the magnetic module of the automated device. The optimal strategy enables greater enrichment of neurological disease-related proteins, including SNCA and BDNF. Finally, the deep mining strategy was applied in a pilot study of multiple system atrophy (MSA) for biomarker discovery. The results showed that a total of 215 proteins were upregulated and 184 proteins were downregulated (p < 0.05) in the MSA group compared with the healthy control group. Eighteen proteins of these differentially expressed proteins were reported to be associated with neurological diseases or expressed specifically in brain tissue, 8 and 4 of which have reference concentrations of μg/L and ng/L, respectively. The alterations of ENPP2 and SLC2A1/Glut1 were reanalyzed by ELISA, further supporting the results of mass spectrometry. In conclusion, the results of the evaluation and application of the deep mining strategy showed promise for clinical research applications.

Abstract
Toxicology is an essential part of any drug development plan. Circumnavigating the risk of failure because of a toxicity issue can be a challenge, and failure in late development is extremely costly. To identify potential risks, it requires more than just understanding the biological target. The toxicologist needs to consider a compound's structure, it's physicochemical properties (including the impact of the overall formulation), as well as the biological target (e.g., receptor interactions). Understanding the impact of the physicochemical properties can be used to predict potential toxicities in advance by incorporating key endpoints in early screening strategies and/or used to compare toxicity profiles across lead candidates. This review discussed the risks of off-target and/or non-specific toxicities that may be associated with the physicochemical properties of compounds, especially those carrying dominant positive or negative charges, including amphiphilic small molecules, peptides, oligonucleotides and lipids/liposomes/lipid nanoparticles. The latter of which are being seen more and more in drug development, including the recent Covid pandemic, where mRNA and lipid nanoparticle technology is playing more of a role in vaccine development. The translation between non-clinical and clinical data is also considered, questioning how a physicochemical driven toxicity may be more universal across species, which means that such toxicity may be reassuringly translatable between species and as such, this information may also be considered as a support to the 3 R's, particularly in the early screening stages of a drug development plan.

Abstract
Nowadays, nanodrugs become a hotspot in the high-end medical field. They have the ability to deliver drugs to reach their destination more effectively due to their unique properties and flexible functionalization. However, the fate of nanodrugs in vivo is not the same as those presented in vitro, which indeed influenced their therapeutic efficacy in vivo. When entering the biological organism, nanodrugs will first come into contact with biological fluids and then be covered by some biomacromolecules, especially proteins. The proteins adsorbed on the surface of nanodrugs are known as protein corona (PC), which causes the loss of prospective organ-targeting abilities. Fortunately, the reasonable utilization of PC may determine the organ-targeting efficiency of systemically administered nanodrugs based on the diverse expression of receptors on cells in different organs. In addition, the nanodrugs for local administration targeting diverse lesion sites will also form unique PC, which plays an important role in the therapeutic effect of nanodrugs. This article introduced the formation of PC on the surface of nanodrugs and summarized the recent studies about the roles of diversified proteins adsorbed on nanodrugs and relevant protein for organ-targeting receptor through different administration pathways, which may deepen our understanding of the role that PC played on organ-targeting and improve the therapeutic efficacy of nanodrugs to promote their clinical translation.

Abstract
Although essential nanosystems such as nanoparticles and nanocarriers are desirable options for transporting various drug molecules into the biological environment, they rapidly remove from the circulatory system due to their interaction with multiple in vivo barriers, especially the immune barrier, which will result in their short-term effects. In order to improve their effectiveness and durability in the circulatory system, the polymer coatings can use to cover the surface of nanoparticles and nanocarriers to conceal them from the immune system. Due to their different properties (like charge, elasticity, and hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity), these coatings can improve drug delivery nanosystem durability and therapeutic applications. The mentioned coatings have different types and are divided into various categories, such as synthetic polymers, polysaccharides, and zwitterionic polymers. Each of these polymers has unique properties based on its category, origin, and chemical structure that make them suitable for producing stealth drug delivery nanocarriers. In this review article, we have tried to explain the importance of these diverse polymer coatings in determining the fate of drug nanocarriers and then introduced the different types of these coatings and, finally, described various methods that directly and indirectly analyze the nanocoatings to determine the stability of nanoparticles in the body.

Abstract
Polymeric nanogels as drug delivery systems offer great advantages, such as high encapsulation capacity and easily tailored formulations; however, data on biocompatibility are still limited. We synthesized N-isopropylacrylamide nanogels, with crosslinker content between 5 and 20 mol%, functionalized with different positively charged co-monomers, and investigated the in vivo toxicity in zebrafish. Our results show that the chemical structure of the basic unit impacts the toxicity profile depending on the degree of ionization and hydrogen bonding capability. When the degree of crosslinking of the polymer was altered, from 5 mol% to 20 mol%, the distribution of the positively charged monomer 2-tert-butylaminoethyl methacrylate was significantly altered, leading to higher surface charges for the more rigid nanogels (20 mol% crosslinker), which resulted in >80% survival rate (48 h, up to 0.5 mg/mL), while the more flexible polymers (5 mol% crosslinker) led to 0% survival rate (48 h, up to 0.5 mg/mL). These data show the importance of tailoring both chemical composition and rigidity of the formulation to minimize toxicity and demonstrate that using surface charge data to guide the design of nanogels for drug delivery may be insufficient.

Abstract
A surface-engineered cell-derived nanocarrier was developed for efficient cytosolic delivery of encapsulated biologically active molecules inside living cells. Thus, a combination of aromatic-labeled and cationic lipids, instrumental in providing fusogenic properties, was intercalated into the biomimetic shell of self-assembled nanocarriers formed from cell membrane extracts. The nanocarriers were loaded, as a proof of concept, with either bisbenzimide molecules, a fluorescently labeled dextran polymer, the bicyclic heptapeptide phalloidin, fluorescently labeled polystyrene nanoparticles or a ribonucleoprotein complex (Cas9/sgRNA). The demonstrated nanocarrieŕs fusogenic behavior relies on the fusogen-like properties imparted by the intercalated exogenous lipids, which allows for circumventing lysosomal storage, thereby leading to efficient delivery into the cytosolic milieu where cargo regains function.

Abstract
It is well known that the physicochemical properties of nanocarriers, which are closely related to the surface modification of nanoparticles, have crucial impacts on their biological effects. Herein, the interaction between functionalized degradable dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DDMSNs) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated for probing into the nanocarriers' potential toxicity using multi-spectroscopy such as ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis), synchronous fluorescence, Raman and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. BSA, owing to its structural homology and high sequence similarity with HSA, was employed as the model protein to study the interactions with DDMSNs, amino-modified DDMSNs (DDMSNs-NH2) and hyaluronic acid (HA) coated nanoparticles (DDMSNs-NH2-HA). It was found that the static quenching behavior of DDMSNs-NH2-HA to BSA was accompanied by an endothermic and hydrophobic force-driven thermodynamic process, which was confirmed by fluorescence quenching spectroscopic studies and thermodynamic analysis. Furthermore, the conformational variations of BSA upon interaction with nanocarriers were observed by combination of UV/Vis, synchronous fluorescence, Raman and CD spectroscopy. The microstructure of amino residues in BSA changed due to the existence of nanoparticles, for example, the amino residues and hydrophobic groups exposed to microenvironment and the alpha helix (α-helix) content of BSA decreased. Specially, through thermodynamic analysis, the diverse binding modes and driving forces between nanoparticles and BSA were discovered because of different surface modifications on DDMSNs, DDMSNs-NH2 and DDMSNs-NH2-HA. We believe that this work can promote the interpretation of mutual impact between nanoparticles and biomolecules, which will be in favor of predicting the biological toxicity of nano-DDS and engineering functionalized nanocarriers.

Abstract
When a nanoparticle (NP) is introduced into a biological environment, its identity and interactions are immediately attributed to the dense layer of proteins that quickly covers the particle. The formation of this layer, dubbed the protein corona, is in general a combination of proteins interacting with the surface of the NP and a contest between other proteins for binding sites either at the surface of the NP or upon the dense layer. Despite the importance for surface engineering and drug development, the molecular mechanisms and structure behind interfacial biomolecule action have largely remained elusive. We use ultrafast sum frequency scattering (SFS) spectroscopy to determine the structure and the mode of action by which these biomolecules interact with and manipulate interfaces. The majority of work in the field of sum frequency generation has been done on flat model interfaces. This limits some important membrane properties such as membrane fluidity and dimensionality─important factors in biomolecule-membrane interactions. To move toward three-dimensional (3D) nanoscopic interfaces, we utilize SFS spectroscopy to interrogate the surface of 3D lipid monolayers, which can be used as a model lipid-based nanocarrier system. In this study, we have utilized SFS spectroscopy to follow the action of lysozyme. SFS spectra in the amide I region suggest that there is lysozyme at the interface and that the lysozyme induces an increased lipid monolayer order. The binding of lysozyme with the NP is demonstrated by an increase in acyl chain order determined by the ratio of the CH3 symmetric and CH2 symmetric peak amplitudes. Furthermore, the lipid headgroup orientation s-PO2- change strongly supports lysozyme insertion into the lipid layer causing lipid disruption and reorientation. Altogether, with SFS, we have made a huge stride toward understanding the binding and structure change of proteins within the protein corona.

Abstract
Foods are complex biosystems made up of a wide variety of compounds. Some of them, such as nutrients and bioactive compounds (bioactives), contribute to supporting body functions and bring important health benefits; others, such as food additives, are involved in processing techniques and contribute to improving sensory attributes and ensuring food safety. Also, there are antinutrients in foods that affect food bioefficiency and contaminants that increase the risk of toxicity. The bioefficiency of food is evaluated with bioavailability which represents the amount of nutrients or bioactives from the consumed food reaching the organs and tissues where they exert their biological activity. Oral bioavailability is the result of some physicochemical and biological processes in which food is involved such as liberation, absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (LADME). In this paper, a general presentation of the factors influencing oral bioavailability of nutrients and bioactives as well as the in vitro techniques for evaluating bioaccessibility and is provided. In this context, a critical analysis of the effects of physiological factors related to the characteristics of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) on oral bioavailability is discussed, such as pH, chemical composition, volumes of gastrointestinal (GI) fluids, transit time, enzymatic activity, mechanical processes, and so on, and the pharmacokinetics factors including BAC and solubility of bioactives, their transport across the cell membrane, their biodistribution and metabolism. The impact of matrix and food processing on the BAC of bioactives is also explained. The researchers' recent concerns for improving oral bioavailability of nutrients and food bioactives using both traditional techniques, for example, thermal treatments, mechanical processes, soaking, germination and fermentation, as well as food nanotechnologies, such as loading of bioactives in different colloidal delivery systems (CDSs), is also highlighted.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a major hurdle for the development of systemically delivered drugs against diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). Because of this barrier there is still a huge unmet need for the treatment of these diseases, despite years of research efforts across the pharmaceutical industry. Novel therapeutic entities, such as gene therapy and degradomers, have become increasingly popular in recent years, but have not been the focus for CNS indications so far. To unfold their full potential for the treatment of CNS diseases, these therapeutic entities will most likely have to rely on innovative delivery technologies. Here we will describe and assess approaches, both invasive and non-invasive, that can enable, or at least increase, the probability of a successful drug development of such novel therapeutics for CNS indications.

Abstract
The prolific applicability of nanomaterials has made them a common citizen in biological systems, where they interact with proteins forming a biological corona complex. These complexes drive the interaction of nanomaterials with and within the cells, bringing forward numerous potential applications in nanobiomedicine, but also arising toxicological issues and concerns. Proper characterization of the protein corona complex is a great challenge typically handled with the combination of several techniques. Surprisingly, despite inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) being a powerful quantitative technique whose application in nanomaterials characterization and quantification has been consolidated in the last decade, its application to nanoparticle-protein corona studies is scarce. Furthermore, in the last decades, ICP-MS has experienced a turning point in its capabilities for protein quantification through sulfur detection, hence becoming a generic quantitative detector. In this regard, we would like to introduce the potential of ICP-MS in the nanoparticle protein corona complex characterization and quantification complementary to current methods and protocols.

Abstract
Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are a class of representative fluorescent nanomaterials with tunable, bright, and sharp fluorescent emission, with promising biomedical applications. However, their effects on biological systems are not fully elucidated. In this work, we investigated the interactions between QDs with different surface ligands and different particle sizes and α-chymotrypsin (ChT) from the thermodynamic and kinetic perspectives. Enzymatic activity experiments demonstrated that the catalytic activity of ChT was strongly inhibited by QDs coated with dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA-QDs) with noncompetitive inhibitions, whereas the QDs coated with glutathione (GSH-QDs) had weak effects. Furthermore, kinetics studies showed that different particle sizes of DHLA-QDs all had high suppressive effects on the catalytic activity of ChT. It was found that DHLA-QDs with larger particle sizes had stronger inhibition effects because more ChT molecules were bound onto the surface of QDs. This work highlights the importance of hydrophobic ligands and particle sizes of QDs, which should be considered as the primary influencing factors in the assessment of biosafety. Meanwhile, the results herein can also inspire the design of nano inhibitors.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have applications in environmental protection, hygiene, medicine, agriculture, and the food industry due to their enhanced bio-efficacy/toxicity as science and technology have progressed, notably nanotechnology. The extension in the use of nanoparticles in day-to-day products and their excellent efficacy raises worries about safety concerns associated with their use. Therefore, to understand their safety concerns and find the remedy, it is imperative to understand the rationales for their enhanced toxicity at low concentrations to minimize their potential side effects. The worldwide literature quotes different nanoparticle functions responsible for their enhanced bio-efficacy/ toxicity. Since the literature on the comparative toxicity study of nanoparticles of different shapes and sizes having different other physic-chemical properties like surface areas, surface charge, solubility, etc., evident that the nanoparticle's toxicity is not followed the fashion according to their shape, size, surface area, surface charge, solubility, and other Physico-chemical properties. It raises the question then what function of nanoparticle is the primary factor for their hyper toxicity. Why do non-spherical and large-sized nanoparticles show the same or higher toxicity to the same or different cell line or test organism instead of having lower surface area, surface charge, larger size, etc., than their corresponding spherical and smaller-sized nanoparticles? Are these factors a secondary, not primary, factor for nanoparticles hyper-toxicity? If so, what function of nanoparticles is the primary function for their hyper-toxicity? Therefore, in this article, literature related to the comparative toxicity of nanoparticles was thoroughly studied, and a hypothesis is put forth to address the aforesaid question, that the number of atoms/ions/ molecules per nanoparticles is the primary function of nanoparticles toxicity.

Abstract
The increasing emergence and dissemination of antibiotic resistance pose a severe threat to overwhelming healthcare practices worldwide. The lack of new antibacterial drugs urgently calls for alternative therapeutic strategies to combat multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial pathogens, especially those that survive and replicate in host cells, causing relapse and recurrence of infections. Intracellular drug delivery is a direct efficient strategy to combat invasive pathogens by increasing the accumulation of antibiotics. However, the increased accumulation of antibiotics in the infected host cells does not mean high efficacy. The difficulty of treatment lies in the efficient intracellular delivery of antibiotics to the pathogen-containing compartments. Here, we first briefly review the survival mechanisms of intracellular bacteria to facilitate the exploration of potential antibacterial targets for precise delivery. Furthermore, we provide an overview of endocytosis-mediated drug delivery systems, including the biomedical and physicochemical properties modulating the endocytosis and intracellular redistribution of antibiotics. Lastly, we summarize the targets and payloads of recently described intracellular delivery systems and their modes of action against diverse pathogenic bacteria-associated infections. This overview of endocytosis-mediated redistribution of antibiotics sheds light on the development of novel delivery platforms and alternative strategies to combat intracellular bacterial pathogens.

Abstract
Mixing-induced nanoprecipitation (MINP) is an efficient, controllable, scalable, versatile, and cost-effective technique for the preparation of nanoparticles. In addition to the formulation of drugs, MINP has attracted tremendous interest in other fields. In this review, we highlight recent advances in the preparation of nanoparticles with complex nanostructures via MINP and their emerging applications beyond biomedicine. First, the mechanisms of nanoprecipitation and four mixing approaches for MINP are briefly discussed. Next, three strategies for the preparation of nanoparticles with complex nanostructures including sequential nanoprecipitation, controlling phase separation, and incorporating inorganic nanoparticles, are summarized. Then, emerging applications including the engineering of catalytic nanomaterials, environmentally friendly photovoltaic inks, colloidal surfactants for the preparation of Pickering emulsions, and green templates for the synthesis of nanomaterials, are reviewed. Furthermore, we discuss the structure-function relationships to gain more insight into design principles for the development of functional nanoparticles via MINP. Finally, the remaining issues and future applications are discussed. This review will stimulate the development of nanoparticles with complex nanostructures and their broader applications beyond biomedicine.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) demonstrate unique properties and their use is exponentially increasing in various applications. The potential impact of Ag-NPs on human health is debatable in terms of toxicity. The present study deals with MTT(3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl-tetrazolium-bromide) assay on Ag-NPs. We measured the cell activity resulting from molecules' mitochondrial cleavage through a spectrophotometer. The machine learning models Decision Tree (DT) and Random Forest (RF) were utilized to comprehend the relationship between the physical parameters of NPs and their cytotoxicity. The input features used for the machine learning were reducing agent, types of cell lines, exposure time, particle size, hydrodynamic diameter, zeta potential, wavelength, concentration, and cell viability. These parameters were extracted from the literature, segregated, and developed into a dataset in terms of cell viability and concentration of NPs. DT helped in classifying the parameters by applying threshold conditions. The same conditions were applied to RF to extort the predictions. K-means clustering was used on the dataset for comparison. The performance of the models was evaluated through regression metrics, viz. root mean square error (RMSE) and R2. The obtained high value of R2 and low value of RMSE denote an accurate prediction that could best fit the dataset. DT performed better than RF in predicting the toxicity parameter. We suggest using algorithms for optimizing and designing the synthesis of Ag-NPs in extended applications such as drug delivery and cancer treatments.

Abstract
Zwitterionic polymers are known to interact with cells and have been shown to reveal cancer cell specificity. In this work, the importance of the chemistry of the polymer backbone for the cellular specificity of amino-acid-derived polyzwitterions is demonstrated. A series of glutamic acid (Glu)-based vinyl monomers (i.e., an acrylate, a methacrylate, an acrylamide, and a methacrylamide) were prepared and used for reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) polymerisation, yielding defined polymers with narrow size distribution (Ð < 1.3). All Glu-functionalised, zwitterionic polymers revealed high cytocompatibility; however, differences in cellular association and specificity were observed. In particular, the methacrylamide-derived polymers showed high association with both, breast cancer cells and non-cancerous dendritic cells and, consequently, lack specificity. In contrast, high specificity to only breast cancer cells was observed for polyacrylates, -methacrylates, and -acrylamides. Detailed analysis of the polymers revealed differences in hydrophobicity, zeta potential, and potential side chain hydrolysis, which are impacted by the polymer backbone and might be responsible for the altered the cell association of these polymers. It is shown that a slightly negative net charge is preferred over a neutral charge to retain cell specificity. This was also confirmed by association experiments in the presence of competitive amino acid transporter substrates. The affinity of slightly negatively charged Glu-derived polymers to the xCT Glu/cystine cell membrane antiporter was found to be higher than that of neutrally charged polymers. Our results emphasise the importance of the polymer backbone for the design of cell-specific polymers. This study further highlights the potential to tailor amino-acid-derived zwitterionic materials beyond their side chain functionality.

Abstract
Among the plethora of nanosystems used in the field of theranostics, iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) occupy a central place because of their biocompatibility and magnetic properties. In this study, we highlight the radiosensitizing effect of two IONPs formulations (namely 7 nm carboxylated IONPs and PEG5000-IONPs) on A549 lung carcinoma cells when exposed to 225 kV X-rays after 6 h, 24 h and 48 h incubation. The hypothesis that nanoparticles exhibit their radiosensitizing effect by weakening cells through the inhibition of detoxification enzymes was evidenced by thioredoxin reductase activity monitoring. In particular, a good correlation between the amplification effect at 2 Gy and the residual activity of thioredoxin reductase was observed, which is consistent with previous observations made for gold nanoparticles (NPs). This emphasizes that NP-induced radiosensitization does not result solely from physical phenomena but also results from biological events.

Abstract
Targeted drug delivery requires -among others- specific interaction of nanocarriers with cell surface receptors enabling efficient internalization into the targeted cells. Thus, identification of receptors allowing efficient nanocarrier uptake is essential to improve the design of targeted nanomedicines. Here we used methods based on cell surface biotinylation to identify cell surface receptors mediating nanoparticle uptake by cells. We used human brain and liver endothelial cells as representative examples of cells typically showing very low and very high nanoparticle uptake, respectively. Amino-modified and carboxylated silica were used as model nanoparticles usually associated with high and low uptake into cells, respectively, and carrying different coronas after exposure in full human plasma. Using cell surface biotinylation of live cells and receptor pull-down assays, we compared the receptors internalized in control untreated cells and those internalized upon exposure to nanoparticles. In this way, we identified receptors associated with (high) nanoparticle uptake. The candidate receptors were further validated by decorating the nanoparticles with an artificial corona consisting of the respective receptor ligands. We found that a vitronectin corona can be used to target integrin receptors and strongly enhances nanoparticle uptake in brain and liver endothelial cells. The increased uptake was maintained in the presence of serum, suggesting that the vitronectin-corona could resist interaction and competition with serum. Furthermore, plasminogen-coated nanoparticles promoted uptake in endothelial cells of the liver, but not of the brain. The presented approach using reversible biotinylation of cell surface receptors in live cells allows for receptor-based targeting of nanocarriers that are instrumental in nanoparticle uptake, which can be exploited for targeted drug delivery. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In order to deliver drugs to their site of action, drug-loaded nanocarriers can be targeted to cell receptors enabling efficient uptake into target cells. Thus, methods to identify nanocarrier receptors are invaluable. Here we used reversible biotinylation of live cells and receptor pull-down approaches for receptor identification. By comparative analysis of the individual receptors internalized in untreated cells and cells exposed to nanoparticles, we identified receptors enabling high nanoparticle uptake into liver and brain endothelial cells. Their role was confirmed by decorating nanoparticles with an artificial corona composed of the receptor ligands. In conclusion, live cell reversible biotinylation of cell surface proteins is a powerful tool for the identification of potential receptors for receptor-based targeting of nanocarriers.

Abstract
With the rapid progress of nanotechnology, various nanoparticles (NPs) have been applicated in our daily life. In the field of nanotechnology, metal-based NPs are an important component of engineered NPs, including metal and metal oxide NPs, with a variety of biomedical applications. However, the unique physicochemical properties of metal-based NPs confer not only promising biological effects but also pose unexpected toxic threats to human body at the same time. For safer application of metal-based NPs in humans, we should have a comprehensive understanding of NP toxicity. In this review, we summarize our current knowledge about metal-based NPs, including the physicochemical properties affecting their toxicity, mechanisms of their toxicity, their toxicological assessment, the potential strategies to mitigate their toxicity and current status of regulatory movement on their toxicity. Hopefully, in the near future, through the convergence of related disciplines, the development of nanotoxicity research will be significantly promoted, thereby making the application of metal-based NPs in humans much safer.

Abstract
Due to the complex bloodstream components, tumor microenvironment and tumor heterogeneity, traditional nanoparticles have a limited effect (low drug delivery efficiency and poor penetration to the deeper tumor) on eradicating tumors. To solve these challenges, novel platelet membrane-coated nanoparticles (PCDD NPs) were constructed for combined chemo-photodynamic- and immunotherapy of melanoma. The platelet membrane imparted the PCDD nanoparticles with an excellent long circulation effect and tumor targeting ability, which solved the issues of low drug delivery efficiency. After reaching the tumor cells, it releases the drug-loaded CDD micelles, becoming positively charged and facilitating the deep penetration of tumors. Cytotoxic and apoptosis experiments showed that PCDD nanoparticles have the strongest tumor cell killing ability. Based on the excellent results in vitro, PCDD was used to assess anti-tumor and distal tumor inhibition in rat models. The results revealed that the PCDD combined PDT, immunotherapy and chemotherapy could not only inhibit the primary tumor growth (inhibition rate: 92.0%) but also suppress the distant tumor growth (inhibition rate: 90.7%) and lung metastasis, which is far more effective compared to the commercial Taxotere®. Exploration of the molecular mechanism showed that in vivo immune response induced an increase in positive immune responders, suppressed negative immune suppressors, and established an inflammatory tumor immune environment, leading to excellent results in tumor suppression and lung metastasis. In conclusion, this novel multifunctional PCDD nanoparticle is a promising platform for tumor combined chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT) and immunotherapy.

Abstract
Understanding the nanoparticle-cell interactions in physiological media is vital in determining the biological fate of the nanoparticles (NPs). These interactions depend on the physicochemical properties of the NPs and their colloidal behavior in cell culture media (CCM). Furthermore, the impact of the bioconjugates made by nanoparticle with proteins from CCM on the mechanical properties of cells upon interaction is unknown. Here, we analyzed the time dependent stability of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized with citrate, dextran-10, dextrin and chitosan polymers in protein poor- and protein rich CCM. Further, we implemented the high-throughput technology real-time deformability cytometry (RT-DC) to investigate the impact of AuNP-bioconjugates on the cell mechanics of HL60 suspension cells. We found that dextrin-AuNPs form stable bioconjugates in both CCM and have a little impact on cell mechanics, ROS production and cell viability. In contrast, positively charged chitosan-AuNPs were observed to form spherical and non-spherical aggregated conjugates in both CCM and to induce increased cytotoxicity. Citrate- and dextran-10-AuNPs formed spherical and non-spherical aggregated conjugates in protein rich- and protein poor CCM and induced at short incubation times cell stiffening. We anticipate based on our results that dextrin-AuNPs can be used for therapeutic purposes as they show lower cytotoxicity and insignificant changes in cell physiology.

Abstract
In recent decades, upconversion nanomaterials (UCNMs) have attracted considerable research interest because of their unique optical properties, such as large anti-Stokes shifts, sharp emissions, non-photobleaching, and long lifetime. These unique properties make them ideal candidates for unified applications in biomedical fields, including drug delivery, bioimaging, biosensing, and photodynamic therapy for specific cancers. This review describes the general mechanisms of upconversion, synthesis methods, and potential applications in biology and their biological responses. Additionally, the biological toxicity of UCNMs is explained and summarized with the associated intracellular association mechanisms. Finally, the prospects and future challenges of UCNMs at the clinical level in biological applications are described, along with a summary of opportunity for biological as well as clinical applications of UCNMs.

Abstract
Nanoparticles are promising vehicles for the precise delivery of molecular therapies to diseased sites. Nanoparticles interact with a series of tissues and cells before they reach their target, which causes less than 1% of administered nanoparticles to be delivered to these target sites. Researchers have been studying the nano-bio interactions that mediate nanoparticle delivery to develop guidelines for designing nanoparticles with enhanced delivery properties. In this review article, we describe these nano-bio interactions with a series of mathematical equations that quantitatively define the nanoparticle delivery process. We employ a compartment model framework to describe delivery where nanoparticles are either (1) at the site of administration, (2) in the vicinity of target cells, (3) internalized by the target cells, or (4) sequestered away in off-target sites or eliminated from the body. This framework explains how different biological processes govern nanoparticle transport between these compartments, and the role of intercompartmental transport rates in determining the final nanoparticle delivery efficiency. Our framework provides guiding principles to engineer nanoparticles for improved targeted delivery.

Abstract
X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS), a synchrotron source-based technique to measure sample dynamics, is used to determine hydrodynamic diameters of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) of different sizes in biological environments. In situ determined hydrodynamic diameters are benchmarked with values obtained by dynamic light scattering. The technique is then applied to analyze the behavior of the Au NPs in a biological environment. First, a concentration-dependent agglomeration in the presence of NaCl is determined. Second, concentration-dependent increase in hydrodynamic diameter of the Au NPs upon the presence of proteins is determined. As X-rays in the used energy range are barely scattered by biological matter, dynamics of the Au NPs can be also detected in situ in complex biological environments, such as blood. These measurements demonstrate the possibility of XPCS for in situ analytics of nanoparticles (NPs) in biological environments where similar detection techniques based on visible light would severely suffer from scattering, absorption, and reflection effects.

Abstract
The skeletal muscle progenitors’ proliferation and migration are crucial stages of myogenesis. Identifying drug candidates that contribute to myogenesis can have a positive impact on atrophying muscle. The purpose of the study is to synthesize the Antrodia cinnamomea (AC)-β-cyclodextrin (BCD) inclusion complex (IC) and understand its in vitro pro-regenerative influence in murine skeletal C2C12 myoblasts. The IC was subjected to various nano-characterization studies. Fluorescent IC was synthesized to understand the cellular uptake of IC. Furthermore, 25 µg/mL, 12.5 µg/mL, and 6.25 µg/mL of IC were tested on murine C2C12 skeletal muscle cells for their anti-inflammatory, pro-migratory, and pro-proliferative action. The cellular internalization of IC occurred rapidly via pinocytosis. IC (252.6 ± 3.2 nm size and −37.24 ± 1.55 surface charge) exhibited anti-inflammatory action by suppressing the secretion of interleukin-6 and enhanced cell proliferation with promising cytocompatibility. A 12.5 μg/mL dose of IC promoted cell migration in 24 h, but the same dose of AC significantly reduced cell migration, suggesting modification by BCD. Molecular studies revealed that IC promoted C2C12 myoblasts migration by upregulating long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) NEAT-1, SYISL, and activating the pPKC/β-catenin pathway. Our study is the first report on the pro-proliferative and pro-migratory effects of BCD-modified extracts of AC.

Abstract
Nowadays, the therapeutic efficiency of small interfering RNAs (siRNA) is still limited by the efficiency of gene therapy vectors capable of carrying them inside the target cells. In this study, siRNA nanocarriers based on low molecular weight chitosan grafted with increasing proportions (5 to 55%) of diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) groups were developed, which allowed precise control of the degree of ionization of the polycations at pH 7.4. This approach made obtaining siRNA nanocarriers with small sizes (100–200 nm), positive surface charge and enhanced colloidal stability (up to 24 h) at physiological conditions of pH (7.4) and ionic strength (150 mmol L−1) possible. Moreover, the PEGylation improved the stability of the nanoparticles, which maintained their colloidal stability and nanometric sizes even in an albumin-containing medium. The chitosan-derivatives displayed non-cytotoxic effects in both fibroblasts (NIH/3T3) and macrophages (RAW 264.7) at high N/P ratios and polymer concentrations (up to 0.5 g L−1). Confocal microscopy showed a successful uptake of nanocarriers by RAW 264.7 macrophages and a promising ability to silence green fluorescent protein (GFP) in HeLa cells. These results were confirmed by a high level of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) knockdown (higher than 60%) in LPS-stimulated macrophages treated with the siRNA-loaded nanoparticles even in the FBS-containing medium, findings that reveal a good correlation between the degree of ionization of the polycations and the physicochemical properties of nanocarriers. Overall, this study provides an approach to enhance siRNA condensation by chitosan-based carriers and highlights the potential of these nanocarriers for in vivo studies.

Abstract
![]()
Cellular localization of carbon nanomaterials in cancer
cells is
essential information for better understanding their interaction with
biological targets and a crucial factor for further evaluating their
biological properties as nanovehicles or nanotherapeutics. Recently,
increasing efforts to develop promising fullerene nanotherapeutics
for cancer nanotechnology have been made. However, the main challenge
regarding studying their cellular effects is the lack of effective
methods for their visualization and determining their cellular fate
due to the limited fluorescence of buckyball scaffolds. Herein, we
developed a method for cellular localization of nonfluorescent and
water-soluble fullerene nanomaterials using the in vitro click chemistry approach. First, we synthesized a triple-bonded
fullerene probe (TBC60ser), which was further used as a
starting material for 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition using 3-azido-7-hydroxycoumarin
and sulfo-cyanine5 azide fluorophores to create fluorescent fullerene
triazoles. In this work, we characterized the structurally triple-bonded
[60]fullerene derivative and confirmed its high symmetry (Th) and the successful formation
of fullerene triazoles by spectroscopic techniques (i.e., ultraviolet–visible,
fluorescence, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopies) and mass
spectrometry. The created fluorescent fullerene triazoles were successfully
localized in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line using fluorescent microscopy.
Overall, our findings demonstrate that TBC60ser localizes
in the lysosomes of MCF-7 cells, with only a small affinity to mitochondria.
