A biomimetic energy converter was fabricated via the assembly of CF0F1-ATPase on lipid-coated hollow nanocapsules composed of α-cyclodextrins/chitosan-graft-poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate. Upon entrapped GOD into these capsules, the addition of glucose could trigger proton-motive force and then drive the rotation of ATPase to synthesize ATP.

This article discusses and summarizes some fascinating outcomes and applications of cyclodextrins (CDs) and their derivatives in drug delivery. These applications include the administration of protein, peptide medications, and gene delivery. Several innovative drug delivery systems, including NPs, microspheres, microcapsules, and liposomes, are designed with the help of CD, which is highlighted in this article.

The present study focused on the integration of beta-cyclodextrin based metal-organic frameworks (β-CDMOF) with polymer to obtain hybrid materials with advantageous properties compared to traditional single-component polymers or metal-organic frameworks (MOF) matrixes. We fabricated two complexes with different morphology and structure. During the in situ growth of β-CDMOF around the hydrogel, potassium ions on polysaccharides gradually dissociated to participate in the growth of crystals, while other potassium ions on the carboxylic acid groups provided bridges between crystals and hydrogel, forming a necklace-shaped complex (SHPs@β-CDMOF).

Background: Currently, the most important challenge in the development of therapeutics and actives is their poor aqueous solubility and bioavailability.
Objective: The low aqueous solubility, poor pharmacokinetic properties, and bioavailability associated with novel actives manifest in numerous challenges in the formulation of conventional dosage forms like tablets, capsules, suspensions, emulsions, etc. Nanosponges are a novel class of drug delivery system capable of encapsulating or entrapping both lipophilic and hydrophilic drugs.

This study evaluated the fasted state gastrointestinal behavior of the lipophilic drug itraconazole, orally administered to healthy volunteers as either a solid dispersion (Sporanox capsules) or a cyclodextrin-based solution (Sporanox solution). Following intake of the drug products, gastric and duodenal fluids were aspirated and analyzed for itraconazole concentration, total content and solubilizing capacity. Release of itraconazole from the solid dispersion generated high and metastable supersaturated levels in the stomach, but the dissolved fraction in the duodenum remained extremely low (median 2.

In this study, double-emulsion capsules (DECs) capable of concealing drug-incorporated targeted-supermolecules are developed to achieve "on-demand" supermolecule release and enhanced sequential targeting for magneto-chemotherapy. These water-in-oil-in-water DECs less than 200 nm in diameter are synthesized using a single component of PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) polymer and the magnetic nanoparticles, which are capable of encapsulating large quantities of targeted supermolecules composed of palitaxel-incorporated beta-cyclodextrin decorated by hyaluronic acid (HA, a CD44-targeting ligand) in the watery core. The release profiles (slow, sustained and burst release) of the targeted supermolecules can be directly controlled by regulating the high-frequency magnetic field (HFMF) and polymer conformation without sacrificing the targeting ability.
