Abstract
This work aimed to establish a simple and feasible method to obtain silk fibroin nanoparticles (SFNPs) with uniform particles size, and then modify the SFNPs with nanobody (Nb) 11C12 targeting the proximal membrane end of carcinoembryonic antigen on the surface of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. The regenerated silk fibroin (SF) was isolated using ultrafiltration tubes with a 50 kDa molecular weight cut-off, and the retention fraction (named as SF > 50 kDa) was further self-assembled into SFNPs by ethanol induction. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscop showed that the SFNPs with uniform particles size were formed. Due to electrostatic adsorption and pH responsiveness, SFNPs have been proved to effectively load and release the anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) (DOX@SFNPs). Further, targeting molecule Nb 11C12 was used to modify these nanoparticles, constituting the targeted outer layer of the drug delivery system (DOX@SFNPs-11C12), achieving precise localization to cancer cells. The release amount of DOX observed fromin vitrodrug release profiles increased as follows: pH 7.4 < pH 6.8 < pH 5.4, demonstrating that the DOX release could be accelerated in a weakly acidic environment.In vitrocytotoxicity experiments displayed that SFNPs-11C12 nanoparticles exhibited good safety and biocompatibility. Drug-loaded nanoparticles, DOX@SFNPs-11C12, led to higher LoVo cells apoptosis compared to DOX@SFNPs. Fluorescence spectrophotometer characterization and confocal laser scanning microscopy further showed that the internalization of DOX was highest in the DOX@SFNPs-11C12, certifying that the introduced targeting molecule enhanced the uptake of drug delivery system by LoVo cells. This study provides a simple and operational approach to developing an optimized SFNPs drug delivery system modified by targeting Nb, which can be a good candidate for CRC therapy.

Abstract
Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) is a well-known antitumor drug used as first line treatment for many types of malignancies. Despite its clinical relevance, the administration of the compound is negatively affected by dose-dependent off-target toxicity phenomena. Nanotechnology has helped to overcome these important limitations by improving the therapeutic index of the bioactive and promoting the translation of novel nanomedicines into clinical practice. Herein, nanoparticles made up of wheat gliadin and stabilized by polyoxyethylene (2) oleyl ether were investigated for the first time as carriers of DOX. The encapsulation of the compound did not significantly affect the physico-chemical features of the gliadin nanoparticles (GNPs), which evidenced a mean diameter of ~180 nm, a polydispersity index < 0.2 and a negative surface charge. The nanosystems demonstrated great stability regarding temperature (25−50 °C) and were able to retain high amounts of drug, allowing its prolonged and sustained release for up to a week. In vitro viability assay performed against breast cancer cells demonstrated that the nanoencapsulation of DOX modulated the cytotoxicity of the bioactive as a function of the incubation time with respect to the free form of the drug. The results demonstrate the potential use of GNPs as carriers of hydrophilic antitumor compounds.

Abstract
The purpose of this research was to investigate the doxorubicin (DOX) adsorption behavior on Fe3O4@Ag-Metal Organic Framework (Fe3O4@Ag-MOF). This adsorbent was effectively prepared using a simple synthetic process. Many instruments, including FTIR, XRD, SEM, TEM, and XPS, were used to characterized the new Fe3O4@Ag-MOF. Additionally, the presented Fe3O4@Ag-surface MOF's area was shown to be 586.06 m2/g with a size of around 43 nm. The composite that was made has magnetic properties that were quite strong (63.3 emu/g). The produced Fe3O4@Ag-MOF was discovered to have a fantastic ability to adsorb the anti-cancer drug DOX, with a 1.72 mmol/g (934.85 mg/g) adsorption capacity. On the basis of changes in temperature, pH, and DOX concentration, the DOX adsorption behavior mechanism was investigated. The adsorption capacity of Fe3O4@Ag-MOF for DOX was greater at pH 7.0, according to experimental data. The adsorption equilibrium also demonstrated that the Langmuir adsorption was regulated the best fit to the extracted data compared with the other models. Additionally, the activation energy of adsorption for DOX onto Fe3O4@Ag-MOF was determined, indicating the chemisorption process. The adsorption kinetics was shown in the well-known kinetic model of the pseudo-second-order. The adsorption thermodynamic measurements were documented according to according to the enthalpy (ΔH°), entropy(ΔS°), and Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) parameters demonstrated that the reaction was endothermic and spontaneous thermodynamic. The adsorption of DOX onto Fe3O4@Ag-MOF from real water samples (tap water, effluent wastewater, and influence wastewater) were investigated. It's interesting that the synthetic adsorbent had great recyclability 72.6 percent in the fifth cycle indicating that it was highly recyclable. After adsorption, the typical Fe3O4@Ag-MOF XRD peak intensities and locations were mostly unchanged throughout adsorption indicates the crystalline phase remained steady. The results indicated that Fe3O4@Ag-MOF were a good candidate for adsorbing the DOX and treating wastewater.

Abstract
Calcium carbonate, as the main inorganic component of human bones and teeth, has good biocompatibility and bioactivity and finds increasing applications in the field of bone drug carriers. In this study, hollow calcium carbonate microspheres were synthesized by a water hydrothermal method using folic acid as a template. Before drug loading, the prepared calcium carbonate microspheres were subjected to aminidation, carboxylation, and vinylenimine modification. The hollow calcium carbonate microspheres loaded with doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) were further incorporated with light-emitting carbon quantum dots(CQDs) and hyaluronic acid (HA). The result showed that the drug loading capacity in the as-prepared calcium carbonate was 179.064 mg/g. In the simulated solutions of cellular metabolism containing various concentrations of reduced glutathione(GSH), the sustained release of DOX was confirmed qualitatively by the luminescence of the CQDs. The DOX release rate was measured quantitively by UV absorption spectra. The highest release rate reached 85.99% in a simulated solution of 0.005 mol/L GSH solution, and the release rate could vary intelligently with the concentration.

Abstract
Nanomaterial selection is critical for photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing. In this report, a novel cathodic photoelectrochemical (PEC) strategy was proposed for the detection of doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox) and gentamicin sulfate (CN). The photocathode was synthesized by noncovalently coupling cadmium sulfide (CdS) to the porphyrin-derived metal-organic framework (CdS@PCN-224). This type of assembly created a pleasant interface for the combination of doxorubicin hydrochloride and gentamicin sulfate, resulting in a good CdS@PCN-224 donor-acceptor system. When compared to a single optoelectronic material, its photocurrent is enhanced by unprecedented nine times. This research could pave the way for the realization of PCN-224's enormous potential in PEC sensing.

Abstract
Iron-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been reported to have great potential for encapsulating doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX), which is a frequently used anthracycline anticancer drug. However, developing a facile approach to realize high loading capacity and efficiency as well as controlled release of DOX in MOFs remains a huge challenge. Herein, we synthesized water-stable MIL-101(Fe)-C4H4 through a microwave-assisted method. It was found the nano-MOFs acted as nanosponges when soaked in a DOX alkaline aqueous solution with a loading capacity experimentally up to 24.5 wt %, while maintaininga loading efficiency as high as 98%. The mechanism of the interaction between DOX and nanoMOFs was investigated by absorption spectra and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, which revealed that the deprotonated DOX was electrostatically adsorbed to the unsaturated Fe3OCl(COO)6·H2O (named Fe3 trimers). In addition, the as-designed poly(ethylene glycol-co-propylene glycol) (F127) modified nanoparticles (F127-DOX-MIL) could be decomposed under the stimulation of glutathione (GSH) and ATP. As a result, DOX and Fe(III) ions were released, and they could undergo a Fenton-like reaction with the endogenous H2O2 to generate the highly toxic hydroxyl radical (·OH). The in vitro experiments indicated that F127-DOX-MIL could cause remarkable Hela cells inhibition through chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy. Our study provides a new strategy to design a GSH/ATP-responsive drug-delivery nanosystem for chemo/chemodynamic therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The active-targeted drug delivery systems had attracted more and more attention to efficiently overcome multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer treatments. The aim of the work was to develop a multifunctional nano-structured liposomal system for co-delivery of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) and celecoxib (CEL) to overcome doxorubicin resistance in breast cancer. METHODS A functional hybrid peptide (MTS-R8H3) with unique cellular penetrability, endo-lysosomal escape and mitochondrial targeting ability was successfully synthesized using solid phase synthesis technology. The peptide modified targeted liposomes (DOX/CEL-MTS-R8H3 lipo) for co-delivery of DOX and CEL were formulated to overcome the chemoresistance in MCF/ADR cells. RESULTS DOX/CEL-MTS-R8H3 lipo showed nanosized shape and displayed high stability for one month. The cytotoxicity effect of the co-delivery of DOX and CEL through peptide modified liposomes had remarkable treatment efficacy on killing MCF/ADR cells. Targeted liposome exhibited greater cellular entry ability about 5.72-fold stronger than DOX solution. Moreover, as compared with unmodified liposomes, the presence of MTS-R8H3 peptide entity on liposome surface enhanced the mitochondrial-targeting ability and achieved effective reactive oxygen species (ROS) production with significant inhibition of P-gp efflux activity. CONCLUSION The study suggested that the DOX/CEL-MTS-R8H3 lipo is a promising strategy for overcoming drug resistance in breast cancer treatments with high targeting inhibition efficiency.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women. The existence of multiple breast cancer subtypes often leads to chemotherapy failure or the development of drug resistance. In recent years, photodynamic therapy has been proven to enhance the sensitivity of tumors to chemotherapeutic drugs. Porphyrin-based metal-organic framework (MOF) materials could simultaneously be used as carriers for chemotherapy and photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy. In this paper, doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) was loaded in porphyrin MOFs, and the mechanism of the synergistic effect of the DOX carriers and photodynamic therapy on breast cancer was investigated. In vitro and in vivo experiments have shown that MOFs could prolong the residence time of DOX in tumor tissues and promote the endocytosis of DOX by tumor cells. In addition, adjuvant treatment with photodynamic therapy can promote breast cancer tumors to resensitize to DOX and synergistically enhance the chemotherapy effect of DOX. Therefore, this study can provide effective development ideas for reversing drug resistance during breast cancer chemotherapy and improving the therapeutic effect of chemotherapy on breast cancer.

Abstract
The ultra-functional potential of nickel oxide (NiO) and magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles (NPs), provides for extensive attention in the use of these metal oxides as a remarkable and electroactive nanocomposite in potentiometric and sensing investigations. This work proposed a new strategy for quantifying doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) in pharmaceuticals and human plasma by preparing a NiO/MgO core-shell nanocomposite modified coated wire membrane sensor. Doxorubicin hydrochloride was incorporated with phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) to produce doxorubicin hydrochloride phosphomolybdate (DOX-PM) as an electroactive material in the presence of polymeric high molecular weight poly vinyl chloride (PVC) and solvent mediator o-nitrophenyloctyl ether (o-NPOE). The modified sensor exhibited ultra sensitivity and high selectivity for the detection and quantification of doxorubicin hydrochloride with a linear relationship in the range of 1.0 × 10-11-1.0 × 10-2 mol L-1. The equation of regression was estimated to be EmV = (57.86 ± 0.8) log [DOX] + 723.19. However, the conventional type DOX-PM showed a potential response over a concentration range of 1.0 × 10-6-1.0 × 10-2 mol L-1 and a regression equation of EmV = (52.92 ± 0.5) log [DOX] + 453.42. The suggested sensors were successfully used in the determination of doxorubicin hydrochloride in commercial injections and human plasma.

Abstract
Oncolytic adenovirus (OA) has attracted increasing attention due to their specific proliferation in tumour cells and resulting in lysis of tumour cells. To further improve the antitumour effect of OA, in this study, we combined CD55-TRAIL-IETD-MnSOD (CD55-TMn), a CEA-controlled OA constructed previously, and chemotherapy to investigate their synergistic effect and possible mechanisms. MTT assay was performed to detect antitumour effects. Hoechst 33 342 and flow cytometric analysis were used to examine cell apoptosis. Western blotting was performed to examine cell pyroptosis and apoptosis mechanism. Animal experiment was used to detect antitumour effect of doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox) combined with CD55-TMn in vivo. We firstly found that Dox promotes gene expression mediated by CEA-regulated OA and virus progeny replication by activating phosphorylation of Smad3, and Dox can enhance antitumour effect of CEA-regulated CD55-TMn by promoting cell apotopsis and cell pyroptosis. Thus, our results provide an experimental and theoretical basis on tumour therapy by combination treatment of the oncolytic virotherapy and chemotherapy and it is expected to become a novel strategy for liver cancer therapy.

Abstract
Glyceryl monooleate (GMO) is one of the most popular amphiphilic lipids, which, in the presence of different amounts of water and a proper amount of stabilizer, can promote the development of well defined, thermodynamically stable nanostructures, called lyotropic liquid crystal dispersions. The aim of this study is based on the design, characterization, and evaluation of the cytotoxicity of lyotropic liquid crystal nanostructures containing a model anticancer drug such as doxorubicin hydrochloride. The drug is efficiently retained by the GMO nanosystems by a remote loading approach. The nanostructures prepared with different non-ionic surfactants (poloxamers and polysorbates) are characterized by different physico-chemical features as a function of several parameters, i.e., serum stability, temperature, and different pH values, as well as the amount of cryoprotectants used to obtain suitable freeze-dried systems. The nanostructures prepared with poloxamer 407 used as a stabilizer show an increased toxicity of the entrapped drug on breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) due to their ability to sensitize multidrug-resistant (MDR) tumor cells through the inhibition of specific drug efflux transporters. Moreover, the interaction between the nanostructures and the cells occurs after just a few hours, evidencing a huge cellular uptake of the nanosystems.

Abstract
An approach for cancer treatment is modulation of tumor microenvironment. Based on the role of extracellular matrix in cell modulation, fabrication of textured materials mimicking extracellular matrix could provide novel opportunities such as determining cancer cell behaviour. With this background, in this work, we have fabricated doxorubicin hydrochloride loaded nanotextured films which promote topographical attachment of cancer cells to film surface, and eliminate cells by release of the anti-cancer drug encapsulated within the films. These films are designed to be placed during surgical removal of the tumor with the intent to prevent ovarian cancer recurrence by capturing cancer cell residuals. With this aim, hemispherical protrusion shaped surface textures were acquired using colloidal lithography technique using 280 nm, 210 nm or 99 nm polystyrene particles. Once moulds were formed, nanotextured films were obtained by casting water-in-oil stable polycaprolactone emulsions encapsulating doxorubicin hydrochloride. Films were then characterized, and evaluated as drug delivery systems. According to results, we found that template morphologies were successfully transferred to films by atomic force microscopy studies. Hydrophilic surfaces were formed with contact angle values around 40°. In-vitro drug release studies indicated that nanotextured films best fit into the Higuchi model, and ∼30% of the drug is released from the films within 60 days. Cell culture results indicated increases in the attachment and viability of human ovarian cancer cells to nanotextured surfaces, particularly to the film fabricated using 99 nm particles. Our results demonstrated that delivery of anti-cancer drugs by use of nanotextured materials could be efficient in cancer therapy, and may offer new possibilities for cancer treatment.

Abstract
The adverse side effects and toxicity caused by the non-targeted delivery of doxorubicin has emphasized the demand of emerging a targeted delivery system. The goal of this study is to enhance the delivery of doxorubicin by formulating an aptamer-labeled liposomal nanoparticle delivery system that will carry and deliver doxorubicin specifically into Her-2+ breast cancer cells. Twelve liposomal batches were prepared using different saturated (HSPC and DPPC) and unsaturated (POPC and DOPC) lipids by thin film hydration. The liposomes were characterized for their particle size, zeta potential, and drug encapsulation efficiency. The particles were also assessed for in vitro toxicity and DOX delivery into the breast cancer cells. The formulations, F1 through F12, had a small particle size of less than 200 nm and a high entrapment efficiency of about 88 ± 5%. The best formulation, F5, had a particle size of 101 ± 14nm, zeta potential of + 5.63 ± 0.46 mV, and entrapment efficiency of ≈ 93%. The cytotoxicity studies show that the DOX-loaded liposomal formulations are more effective in killing cancer cells than the free DOX in both MCF-7 and SKBR-3 cells. The uptake studies show a significant increase in the uptake of the aptamer-labeled liposomes (i.e., F5) by more than 60% into Her-2+ MCF-7 and SKBR-3 breast cancer cells compare to non-aptamer-labeled nanoparticles. F5 also shows ≈ 1.79-fold increase in uptake of DOX in the Her-2+ cells compared to the Her-2- cells. This preliminary study indicates that aptamer-labeled F5 nanoparticles among several batches showed the highest uptake as well as the targeted delivery of doxorubicin into Her-2+ breast cancer cells. Thus, aptamer targeted approach results in substantial reduction in the dose of DOX and improves the therapeutic benefits by promoting the target specificity.

Abstract
In this study, a serotonin-stearic acid (ST-SA)-based bioconjugate was synthesized for the surface modification of manganese oxide-based nanocuboids (MNCs) for delivering of anticancer drug (i.e., doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX)) to human liver cancer cells. MNCs were synthesized by chemical precipitation method, and their surface was modified with ST-SA bioconjugate for targeting of MNCs to cancer cells. The ST-SA@MNCs along with DOX showed good colloidal stability, high drug encapsulation (98.3%), and drug loading efficiencies (22.9%) as well as pH-responsive biodegradation. Coating with ST-SA conjugate provided a shield to MNCs which sustained their degradation in an acidic environment. The release of DOX was higher (81.4%) in acidic media than under the physiological conditions (20.5%) up to 192 h. The in vitro anti-proliferation assay showed that ST-SA@MNCs exhibit higher cell growth inhibition compared to that of pure DOX after 48 h of treatment. The cellular uptake and apoptosis studies revealed the enhanced uptake of ST-SA@MNCs in contrast to the MNCs due to overexpressed ST receptor on hepatocellular carcinoma cells and triggered the generation of reactive oxygen species in the cells. Therefore, these results indicated that the DOX-loaded, ST-SA stabilized MNCs improved the therapeutic index of DOX and would be a promising therapeutic candidate for tumor therapy.

Abstract
A highly sensitive and selective electrochemical sensor has been fabricated by the electrodepositing of nickel hexacyanoferrate (NiHCF) on a Ni-Al layered double hydroxides (Ni-Al-LDH) modified Au electrode for the quantification of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX). The characterization of synthesized nanomaterials has been conducted by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and electrochemical methods. The synergistic effect of NiHCF and Ni-Al-LDH not only excellently improves the performance of DOX electro-reduction, but also promotes electron transfer between DOX and the NiHCF/Ni-Al-LDH/Au sensor. The differential pulse voltammetric response of the NiHCF/Ni-Al-LDH/Au sensor shows a linear relationship with the concentration of DOX in the range of 1.0 × 10-8 - 6.2 × 10-6 mol L-1, a limit of detection of 1.9 × 10-9 mol L-1 (S/N = 3) and a sensibility of 14.71 A mol L-1 cm-2. The developed sensor exhibits good sensitivity, reproducibility, anti-interference and a long-term stability property. Furthermore, the NiHCF/Ni-Al-LDH/Au sensor has been successfully applied to determine DOX in biological samples and human blood serum samples.

Abstract
We used a hydrogel-mediated dual drug delivery approach, based on an injectable glycol chitosan (GC) hydrogel, doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX⋅HCl), and a complex of beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and paclitaxel (PTX) (GDCP) for breast cancer therapy in vitro and in vivo. The hydrogel was swollen over 3 days and remained so thereafter. After an initial burst period of 7 hours, the two drugs were released in a sustained manner for 7 days. The in vitro cell viability test showed that GDCP had a better anticancer effect than well plate and DOX⋅HCl/PTX (DP). In addition, the in vivo tests, which evaluated the anticancer effect, systemic toxicity, and histology, proved the feasibility of GDCP as a clinical therapy for breast cancer.

Abstract
We have devised a nanocarrier using "tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (TPGS) conjugated to triphenylphosphonium cation" (TPP-TPGS) for improving the efficacy of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX). Triphenylphosphonium cation (TPP) has affinity for an elevated transmembrane potential gradient (mitochondrial), which is usually high in cancer cells. Consequently, when tested in molecular docking and cytotoxicity assays, TPP-TPGS, owing to its structural similarity to mitochondrially directed anticancer compounds of the "tocopheryl succinate" family, interferes specifically in mitochondrial CII enzyme activity, increases intracellular oxidative stress, and induces apoptosis in breast cancer cells. DOX loaded nanocarrier (DTPP-TPGS) constructed using TPP-TPGS was positively charged, spherical in shape, sized below 100 nm, and had its drug content distributed evenly. DTPP-TPGS offers greater intracellular drug delivery due to its rapid endocytosis and subsequent endosomal escape. DTPP-TPGS also efficiently inhibits efflux transporter P glycoprotein (PgP), which, along with greater cell uptake and inherent cytotoxic activity of the construction material (TPP-TPGS), cumulatively results in 3-fold increment in anticancer activity of DOX in resistant breast cancer cells as well as greater induction of necroapoptosis and arrest in all phases of the cell cycle. DTPP-TPGS after intravenous administration in Balb/C mice with breast cancer accumulates preferentially in tumor tissue, which produces significantly greater antitumor activity when compared to DOX solution. Toxicity evaluation was also performed to confirm the safety of this formulation. Overall TPP-TPGS is a promising candidate for delivery of DOX.

Abstract
Carboxymethyl Assam Bora rice starch (CM-ABRS) was chemically synthesized in non-aqueous medium with the optimum degree of substitution (DS) of 1.23, and physicochemically characterized by FT-IR, DSC, XRD, and SEM analysis. Comparative evaluation of CM-ABRS with native starch (ABRS) for powder flow characteristics, swelling index, apparent solubility, rheological properties, textural properties, and mucoadhesive studies were carried out. The aim of the current work was to investigate the potential of CM-ABRS as a novel carrier for the water-soluble chemotherapeutic, doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX). Formation of drug/polymer complex (DOX-CM-ABRS) via electrostatic interaction has been evaluated for the controlled release of DOX in three different pH media (phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, 6.8, and 5.5). In vitro drug release studies illustrated faster release of drug in PBS at pH 5.5 as compared to pH 6.8 and pH 7.4, respectively, indicating the importance of pH-sensitive drug release from the DOX-CM-ABRS complex in malignant tissues.

Abstract
PLGA was functionalized with PEG and biotin using click chemistry to generate a biotin receptor targeted copolymer (biotinylated-PEG-PLGA) which in turn was used to fabricate ultrafine nanoparticles (BPNP) of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) for effective delivery in 4T1 cell induced breast cancer. However, adequate entrapment of a hydrophilic bioactive like DOX in a hydrophobic polymer system made of PLGA is not usually possible. We therefore modified a conventional W/O/W emulsion method by utilizing NH4Cl in the external phase to constrain DOX in dissolved polymer phase by suppressing DOX's inherent aqueous solubility as per common ion effect. This resulted in over 8-fold enhancement in entrapment efficiency of DOX inside BPNP, which otherwise is highly susceptible to leakage due to its relatively high aqueous solubility. TEM and DLS established BPNP to be sized below 100 nm, storage stability studies showed that BPNP were stable for one month at 4 °C, and in vitro release suggested significant control in drug release. Extensive in vitro and in vivo studies were conducted to propound anticancer and antiproliferative activity of BPNP. Plasma and tissue distribution study supplemented by pertinent in vivo fluorescence imaging mapped the exact fate of DOX contained inside BPNP once it was administered intravenously. A comparative safety profile via acute toxicity studies in mice was also generated to out rightly establish usefulness of BPNP. Results suggest that BPNP substantially enhance anticancer activity of DOX while simultaneously mitigating its toxic potential due to altered spatial and temporal presentation of drug and consequently deserve further allometric iteration.

Abstract
We report asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR)-targeted doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox) nanoparticles (NPs) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Polyethylene sebacate (PES)-Gantrez® AN 119 Dox NPs of average size 220 nm with PDI < 0.62 and ∼20% Dox loading were prepared by modified nanoprecipitation. ASGPR ligands, pullulan (Pul), arabinogalactan (AGn), and the combination (Pul-AGn), were anchored by adsorption. Ligand anchoring enabled high liver uptake with a remarkable hepatocyte:nonparenchymal cell ratio of 85:15. Furthermore, Pul-AGn NPs exhibited an additive effect implying incredibly high hepatocyte accumulation. Galactose-mediated competitive inhibition confirmed ASGPR-mediated uptake of ligand-anchored NPs in HepG2 cell lines. Subacute toxicity in rats confirmed the safety of the NP groups. However, histopathological evaluation suggested mild renal toxicity of AGn. Pul NPs revealed sustained reduction in tumor volume in PLC/PRF/5 liver tumor-bearing Nod/Scid mice up to 46 days. Extensive tumor necrosis, reduced collagen content, reduction in the HCC biomarker serum α-fetoprotein (p < 0.05), a mitotic index of 1.135 (day 46), and tumor treated/tumor control (T/C) values of <0.42 signified superior efficacy of Pul NPs. Furthermore, weight gain in the NP groups, and no histopathological alterations indicated that they were well tolerated by the mice. The high efficacy coupled with greater safety portrayed Pul Dox NPs as a promising nanocarrier for improved therapy of HCC.

Abstract
A dynamic cross-linked supramolecular network of poly(glycidyl methacrylate)s derivative chains was constructed on mesoporous silica nanoparticles via disulfide bond and ion-dipole interactions between cucurbit[7]urils and protonated diamines in the polymer chains. This kind of multifunctional organic-inorganic hybrid material with pH- and glutathione- (GSH-) stimuli responsiveness can be applied to anticancer drug delivery and controlled release. Good release performance toward doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) was achieved under the simulative tumor intracellular environment (pH = 5.0, CGSH = 2-10 mM). Significantly, the release amount of DOX increased upon lowering the solution pH value and increasing the concentration of GSH, as demonstrated by a series of controlled release experiments. Furthermore, the DOX-loaded hybrid nanomaterials displayed apparent cell-growth inhibition effects to cancer cell lines, as evidenced by MTT assay and confocal laser scanning microscopy.

Abstract
Therapeutic platforms such as chemotherapy that respond to physical and biological stimuli are highly desirable for effective cancer therapy. In this study, pH-responsive charge-reversal, polymer-coated mesoporous silica nanoparticles [PAH-cit/APTES-MSNs; PAH-cit refers to poly(allylamine)-citraconic anhydride; APTES refers to (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane] were synthesized for application as drug-delivery systems for the treatment of malignant cells. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) revealed that the PAH-cit/APTES-MSNs nanocomposite effectively delivered and released doxorubicin hydrochloride to the nucleus of HeLa (human cervical carcinoma) cells. Additionally, the real-time dynamic drug-release process was monitored by CLSM. The current pH-controlled-smart-release platform holds promise in drug-delivery and cancer therapy-related applications.

Abstract
Surface-modified magnetite (Fe3 O4 ) nanoparticles with an average size of 22 nm were prepared. The nanoparticles had a saturation magnetization of 50.7 emu g(-1) . Then magnetite and drug-loaded microspheres of poly (lactic acid)/poly (ethylene glycol) were prepared at various compositions. The microspheres were spherical in shape and had smooth surface. The diameter size of the microspheres ranged between about 0.2 and 4 μm. Doxorubicin hydrochloride for cancer treatment was the drug that loaded into the microspheres. The prepared microspheres were characterized by FTIR, XRD, VSM, SEM and drug-release measurements. It was found that the drug cumulative release percentage was proportional to (time) (n) where 0.61 < n < 0.75 depending on PEG and Fe3 O4 contents. The drug release was controlled through a combination of diffusion and PLA hydrolysis and obeyed a non-fickian mechanism. The drug release was facilitated by presence of poly (ethylene glycol) as PLA plasticizer and was higher under applied external magnetic field. The obtained magnetic microspheres could be used as drug carriers for targeted drug delivery purposes.

Abstract
Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) is an effective anticancer agent for leukemia chemotherapy, although its clinical use has been limited because of its side effects such as cardiotoxicity, alopecia, vomiting, and leucopenia. Attention has been focussed on developing new drug carriers with high adsorption capacity and rapid adsorption rate in order to minimize the side effects of DOX. Graphene oxide (GO), a new type of nanomaterial in the carbon family, was prepared by Hummers method and used as adsorbent for DOX from aqueous solution. The physico-chemical properties of GO were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), zeta potential, and element analysis. The adsorption properties of DOX on GO were studied as a function of contact time, adsorbent dosage, temperature and pH value. The results showed that GO had a maximum adsorption capacity of 1428.57 mg/g and the adsorption isotherm data fitted the Langmuir model. The kinetics of adsorption fits a pseudo-second-order model. The thermodynamic studies indicate that the adsorption of DOX on GO is spontaneous and endothermic in nature.
