PURPOSE: Ivosidenib (IVO), an isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) used for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and cholangiocarcinoma. However, poor solubility, low bioavailability, high dose and side effects limit clinical application of IVO. METHODS: Ivosidenib-loaded PLGA nanoparticles (IVO-PLGA-NPs) and Ivosidenib-loaded chitosan coated PLGA nanoparticles (IVO-CS-PLGA-NPs) were prepared using emulsification and solvent evaporation method for the treatment of liver cancer...

The strategy for treating bladder cancer (BC) depends on whether there is muscle invasion or not, with the latter mostly treated with intravesical therapy, such as with bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG). However, BCG treatment is unsuccessful in 70% of patients, who are then subjected to radical cystectomy. Although immune-checkpoint inhibitors have been approved as a second-line therapy for a subset of BC patients, these have failed to meet primary endpoints in clinical trials. Thus, it is crucial to find a new treatment...

Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics can identify and quantify the differential abundance of expressed proteins in parallel, and bottom-up proteomic approaches are even approaching comprehensive coverage of the complex eukaryotic proteome. Protein-nanoparticle (NP) interactions have been extensively studied owing to their importance in biological applications and nanotoxicology. However, the proteome-level effects of NPs on cells have received little attention, although changes in protein abundance can reflect the direct effects of nanocarriers on protein expression...

Traditional fibrous membranes employed in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) in the treatment of periodontitis have limitations of bioactive and immunomodulatory properties. We fabricated a novel nTPG/PLGA/PCL fibrous membrane by electrospinning which exhibit excellent hydrophilicity, mechanical properties and biocompatibility. In addition, we investigated its regulatory effect on polarization of macrophages and facilitating the regeneration of periodontal tissue both in vivo and in vitro. These findings showed the 0...

In preparing monoclonal antibodies by hybridoma cell technology, the quality of B lymphocytes used for cell fusion directly affects the sensitivity of monoclonal antibodies. To obtain B-lymphocytes producing high-quality specific antibodies for cell fusion during the immunization phase of the antigen, we prepared a TH2-Cell stimulatory delivery system as a novel adjuvant. Astragalus polysaccharide has a good ability to enhance antigenic immune response, and it was encapsulated in biocompatible materials PLGA as an immunostimulatory factor to form the delivery system (APS-PLGA)...

Herein, lipid-polymer core-shell hybrid nanoparticles composed of poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)/lecithin (PLNs) were synthesized through lipid-based surface engineering. Lipids were absorbed onto the surface of the PLGA core to enhance the advantages of polymeric nanoparticles and liposomes. The amounts of lipids and encapsulation of the drug nicardipine hydrochloride (NCH) in the PLNs were studied. NCH-loaded PLNs (NCH-PLNs) were produced in high yield (66%) with a high encapsulation efficiency (92%) and a size of 176 nm...

Nanobiomaterials (NBMs) have tremendous potential applications including in cancer diagnosis and treatment. However, the health and environmental effects of NBMs must be thoroughly assessed to ensure safety. Fe3 O4 (magnetite) nanoparticles coated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) were one of the focus NBMs within the EU project BIORIMA. Fe3 O4 PEG-PLGA has been proposed to be used as a contrast agent in magnetic resonance imaging for the identification of solid tumors and has revealed low cytotoxicity in several cell lines...

With the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 and the continued emergence of new infectious diseases, there is a need to improve and expand current vaccine technology. Controlled-release subunit vaccines provide several benefits over current vaccines on the market, including the use of less antigen and fewer boost doses. Previously, our group reported molecules that alter NF-κB signaling improved the vaccine's performance and improved adjuvant-related tolerability. In this report, we test how these immune potentiators will influence responses when included as part of a controlled-release poly(lactic- co -glycolic) vaccine formulation...

Lymphoid organs are the main structural components of the immune system. In the current research, the mixture of poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), polycaprolactone (PCL), and M13 phage or its RGD-modified form was used in the construction of a fibrillar scaffold using the electrospinning method. The constructs were transplanted intra-abdominally and examined for the formation of lymphoid-like tissues at different time intervals. The confocal and scanning electron microscopy demonstrate that M13 phage-containing scaffolds provide a suitable environment for lymph node-isolated fibroblasts...

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-osteoclastic activity of calcium hydroxide-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles (Ca(OH)2 -loaded PLGA NPs) in comparison to calcium hydroxide nanoparticles (Ca(OH)2 NPs). METHODS: RAW 264.7 cell lines (third-fifth passage) were cultured and incubated with soluble receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) in triplicates. Subsequently, Ca(OH)2 -loaded PLGA NPs and Ca(OH)2 NPs were added for 7 days to evaluate their effects on RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation of RAW 264...

Overexpression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in cancer is a key cause of recurrence of cervical cancer (CC). Although the EGF-EGFR pathway has been studied for decades, preventing tumor growth and recurrence caused by peripheral EGF remains a great challenge. In this work, a strategy is proposed to reduce the stimulation of high concentration EGF on tumor growth by using a thermo-sensitive hydrogel. The hydrogel is a triblock copolymer composed of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and poly (lactide glycolide) (PLGA)...

Tendon diseases pose a significant challenge in regenerative medicine due to the limited healing capacity of this tissue. Successful tendon regeneration requires a combination of angiogenesis, immune response, and tenogenesis processes. An effective tendon engineering (TE) strategy must finely tune this systems' interplay toward homeostasis. This study explores in vitro the paracrine influence of amniotic epithelial stem cells (AECs) engineered on a validated 3D electrospun PLGA scaffolds on HUVECs (angiogenesis), PBMCs/Jurkat (immune response), and AECs (tenogenic stem cell activation)...

Drug therapy is one of the most important strategies for treating gynecological diseases. Local drug delivery is promising for achieving optimal regional drug exposure, considering the complex anatomy and dynamic environment of the upper genital tract. Here, we present microparticle-based microcarriers with a hierarchical structure for localized dienogest (DNG) delivery and endometriosis treatment. The microparticles were fabricated by microfluidics and consisted of photo-crosslinked bovine serum albumin hydrogel particles (D@P-B MPs) encapsulating DNG-loaded PLGA (poly lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres...

Globally, peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is a common clinical issue. Successfully repairing severe PNIs has posed a major challenge for clinicians. GW3965 is a highly selective LXR agonist, and previous studies have demonstrated its positive protective effects in both central and peripheral nerve diseases. In this work, we examined the potential reparative effects of GW3965-loaded polylactic acid co-glycolic acid microspheres in conjunction with a chitosan nerve conduit for peripheral nerve damage. The experiment revealed that GW3965 promoted Schwann cell proliferation and neurotrophic factor release in vitro...

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) often accompanies cochlear synaptopathy, which can be potentially reversed to restore hearing. However, there has been little success in achieving complete recovery of sensorineural deafness using nearly noninvasive middle ear drug delivery before. Here, we present a study demonstrating the efficacy of a middle ear delivery system employing brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)-poly-(dl-lactic acid- co -glycolic acid) (PLGA)-loaded hydrogel in reversing synaptopathy and restoring hearing function in a mouse model with NIHL...

Triamcinolone acetonide (TA), a medium-potency synthetic glucocorticoid, is primarily employed to treat posterior ocular diseases using vitreous injection. This study aimed to design novel ocular nanoformulation drug delivery systems using PLGA carriers to overcome the ocular drug delivery barrier and facilitate effective delivery into the ocular tissues after topical administration. The surface of the PLGA nanodelivery system was made hydrophilic (2-HP-β-CD) through an emulsified solvent volatilization method, followed by system characterization...

In this study, Enzalutamide (ENZ) loaded Poly Lactic- co -Glycolic Acid (PLGA) nanoparticles coated with polysarcosine and d-α-Tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) were prepared using a three-step modified nanoprecipitation method combined with self-assembly. A three-factor, three-level Box-Behnken design was implemented with Design-Expert® software to evaluate the impact of three independent variables on particle size, zeta potential, and percent entrapment efficiency through a numeric optimization approach...

Systemic administration of interleukin (IL)-12 induces potent anti-tumor immune responses in preclinical cancer models through the systemic activation of effector immune cells and release of proinflammatory cytokines. IL-12-loaded PLGA nanospheres (IL12ns) are hypothesized to improve therapeutic efficacy and thwart unwanted side effects observed in previous human clinical trials. Through the investigation of peripheral blood and local tissue immune responses in healthy BALB/c mice, the immune-protective pharmacodynamics of IL12ns were suggested...

A poly(d,l-lactide- co -glycolide) (PLGA) copolymer was synthesized using the ring-opening polymerization of d,l-lactide and glycolide monomers in the presence of zinc proline complex in bulk through the green route and was well characterized using attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared, 1 H and 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance, gel permeation chromatography, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight, etc. Furthermore, PLGA-conjugated biotin (PLGA-B) was synthesized using the synthesized PLGA and was employed to fabricate nanoparticles for irinotecan (Ir) delivery...

As a bioactive saponin derived from the seeds of Ziziphus jujuba Mill. var. spinosa (Bunge) Hu ex H. F. Chow, jujuboside B (JuB) shows great potential in anti-anxiety, anti-depression and improving learning and memory function. However, its oral bioavailability is very poor. In this study, a novel drug-loading nanoparticles system was prepared with polyethylene glycol and polylactic-co-glycolic acid copolymer (PEG-PLGA), and further modified with L-carnitine (LC) to target intestinal organic cation/carnitine transporter 2 (OCTN2) to improve the oral absorption of JuB...
