In pig study, the foam dressing with 6% alginate, 1 mg/cm2 silver and 5% AS could improve wound healing in both the percentage of the wound closure and histological parameters of the dermal wound without any dermatologic reactions. In conclusion, this innovative foam dressing had potential to be a good candidate for wound treatment. © 2018 Published by Elsevier B.V. on behalf of Shenyang Pharmaceutical University.Preformed albumin corona of albumin-nonselective nanoparticles (NPs) is widely exploited to inhibit the unavoidable protein adsorption upon intravenous administration. However, very few studies have concerned the preformed albumin corona of albumin-selective NPs. Herein, we report a novel type of albumin-selective NPs by decorating 6-maleimidocaproyl polyethylene glycol stearate (SA) onto PLGA NPs (SP NPs) surface, taking albumin-nonselective PLGA NPs as control. PLGA NPs and SP NPs were prepared by emulsion-solvent evaporation method and the resultant NPs were in spherical shape with an average diameter around 180 nm. The corresponding albumin-coating PLGA NPs (PLGA@BSA NPs) and albumin-coating SP NPs (SP@BSA NPs) were formulated by incubating SP NPs or PLGA NPs with bovine serum albumin solution, respectively. The impact of albumin corona on particle characteristics, stability, photothermal effect, cytotoxicity, cell uptake, spheroid penetration and pharmacokinetics was investigated. In line with previous findings of preformed albumin coating, PLGA@BSA NPs exhibited higher stability, cytotoxicity, cell internalization and spheroid penetration performances in vitro, and longer blood circulation time in vivo than those of albumin-nonselective PLGA NPs, but albumin-selective SP NPs is capable of achieving a comparable in vitro and in vivo performances with both SP@BSA NPs and PLGA@BSA NPs. Our results demonstrate that SA decorated albumin-selective NPs pave a versatile avenue for optimizing nanoparticulate delivery without preformed albumin corona. © 2018 Shenyang Pharmaceutical University. Published by Elsevier B.V.Folate-targeting self-assembled nanoparticles (NPs) using biocompatible and biodegradable natural polymers chitosan (Cs) and chondroitin sulfate (Chs) were developed to address the major challenge in cancer treatment, the selective delivery of nanoparticles to the target site. In this study, we successfully incorporated a hydrophobic drug, bortezomib (Bor), into folic acid (FA)-conjugated Cs/Chs self-assembled NPs (Bor/Cs/Chs-FA) for colorectal cancer therapy. The particle size and polydispersity index of Bor/Cs/Chs-FA were ∼196.5 ± 1.2 nm and ∼0.21 ± 0.5, respectively. A pH-dependent release profile was observed, facilitating cancer cell-targeted drug release under an acidic tumor microenvironment. Moreover, in vitro data revealed enhanced cellular uptake and apoptosis in folate receptor-expressing colorectal cancer cells (HCT-116 and HT-29) as compared to that in lung cancer cells (A549), which do not express folate receptors. Furthermore, intravenous administration of Bor/Cs/Chs-FA in a HCT-116 bearing xenograft mouse model showed that the NPs were a safe and effective drug delivery system. Methotrexate cell line The results suggest that folate-targeted nanoparticle can be effectively applied for efficient chemotherapy of colorectal cancer. © 2018 Shenyang Pharmaceutical University. Published by Elsevier B.V.Small GTPase is a kind of GTP-binding protein commonly found in eukaryotic cells. It plays an important role in cytoskeletal reorganization, cell polarity, cell cycle progression, gene expression and many other significant events in cells, such as the interaction with foreign particles. Therefore, it is of great scientific significance to understand the biological properties of small GTPases as well as the GTPase-nano interplay, since more and more nanomedicine are supposed to be used in biomedical field. However, there is no review in this aspect. This review summarizes the small GTPases in terms of the structure, biological function and its interaction with nanoparticles. We briefly introduced the various nanoparticles such as gold/silver nanoparticles, SWCNT, polymeric micelles and other nano delivery systems that interacted with different GTPases. These current nanoparticles exhibited different pharmacological effect modes and various target design concepts in the small GTPases study. This will help to elucidate the conclusion that the therapeutic strategy targeting small GTPases might be a new research direction. It is believed that the in-depth study on the functional mechanism of GTPases can provide insights for the design and study of nanomedicines. © 2018 Shenyang Pharmaceutical University. Published by Elsevier B.V.Cancer immunotherapy has been intensively investigated in both preclinical and clinical studies. Whereas chemotherapies use cytotoxic drugs to kill tumor cells, cancer immunotherapy is based on the ability of the immune system to fight cancer. Tumors are intimately associated with the immune system they can suppress the immune response and/or control immune cells to support tumor growth. Immunotherapy has yielded promising results in clinical practice, but some patients show limited responses. This may reflect the complexities of the relationship between a tumor and the immune system. In an effort to improve the current immunotherapies, researchers have exploited nanomaterials in creating new strategies to cure tumors via modulation of the immune system in tumor tissues. Although extensive studies have examined the use of immune checkpoint-based immunotherapy, rather less work has focused on manipulating the innate immune cells. This review examines the recent approaches and challenges in the use of nanomaterials to modulate innate immune cells. © 2018 Shenyang Pharmaceutical University. Published by Elsevier B.V.Blindness and vision impairment are the most devastating global health problems resulting in a substantial economic and social burden. Delivery of drug to particular parts of the anterior or posterior segment has been a major challenge due to various protective barriers and elimination mechanisms associated with the unique anatomical and physiological nature of the ocular system. Methotrexate cell line Drug administration to the eye by conventional delivery systems results in poor ocular bioavailability ( less then 5%). The designing of a novel approach for a safe, simple, and effective ocular drug delivery is a major concern and requires innovative strategies to combat the problem. Over the past decades, several novel approaches involving different strategies have been developed to improve the ocular delivery system. Among these, the ophthalmic in-situ gel has attained a great attention over the past few years. This review discussed and summarized the recent and the promising research progress of in-situ gelling in ocular drug delivery system.
