Augment the efficacy of eradicating metastatic lesions and tumor proliferation in breast cancer by honokiol-loaded pH-sensitive targeted lipid nanoparticles

Hongyan Zhang et al.

Summary: A valid strategy for delivering natural drug Hol has been proposed, using a non-toxic degradable pH-sensitive polymer and Folate-DSPE-PEG2000 outer layer to efficiently inhibit the migration and invasion of breast cancer cells while targeting tumor sites. This drug delivery system demonstrated marked anti-tumor and lung metastasis suppression effects in mice models, with elevated apoptosis levels and repression of metalloproteinase expression.

Engineered s-Triazine-Based Dendrimer-Honokiol Conjugates as Targeted MMP-2/9 Inhibitors for Halting Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Hosam H. Khalil et al.

Summary: Despite the challenges of off-target side effects and pharmacokinetics, recent targeting strategies have revitalized MMP research by introducing new s-triazine-based dendrimers with intrinsic MMP-2/9 inhibitory potential for targeted therapy against hepatocellular carcinoma. Preliminary screening showed promising potency against MMP-2/9 within safe doses, with hydrazide dendrimers being comparable to NNGH and superior to the carboxylic acid analogue, while conjugates of these dendrimers with anticancer agents exhibited enhanced potency in cancer cells, making them potential candidates for targeted cancer therapy.

Structural design of zein-cellulose nanocrystals core-shell microparticles for delivery of curcumin

Yang Wei et al.

Summary: The novel core-shell microparticles were fabricated to deliver curcumin by using hydrophobic zein microparticles as the core and hydrophilic cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) as the shell. The increase of CNCs level delayed the release of curcumin from the microparticles, showcasing the potential of utilizing hydrophilic nanoparticles to stabilize hydrophobic microparticles.

Wusigale et al.

Summary: Chitosan-coated hollow zein particles were developed to co-encapsulate folic acid and caffeic acid, improving the photostability of both compounds. The optimized particles exhibited small size, uniform dimension, and excellent colloidal stability. Co-encapsulation enhanced the photostability of the compounds and increased the antioxidant activity of caffeic acid after irradiation.
