Here we described nano-polyplexes (NPs) made of oleoyl-carboxymethy-chitosan (OCMCS)/hyaluronic acid (HA) as novel potential carriers for oral gene vaccines delivery. Aerolysin gene (aerA) of Aeromonas hydrophila as microbial antigen was efficiently loaded to form OCMCS-HA/aerA (OHA) NPs. OHA NPs performed the optimal parameters, i.e. smallest (154.5±9.4nm), positive charged (+7.9±0.5mV) and monodispersed system with the N/P ratio of 5 and OCMCS/HA weight ratio of 4. Upon the introduction of HA, OHA NPs was beneficial for the DNA release in intestinal environments in comparison to OA NPs. The mean fluorescence intensity detected in Caco-2 cells incubated with OHA NPs was about 2.5-fold higher than that of OA NPs; however, it decreased significantly in the presence of excess free HA. The OHA NPs and OA NPs decreased the transepithelial electric resistance (TEER) of Caco-2 monolayers obviously and induced increasing the apparent permeability coefficient (Papp) of DNA by 5.45-6.09 folds compared with free DNA. Significantly higher (P<0.05) antigen-specific antibodies were detected in serum after orally immunized with OHA NPs than that immunized with OA NPs and DNA alone in carps. These results enable the OHA NPs might resolve challenges arising from gastrointestinal damage to gene antigens, and offer an approach applicable for oral vaccination.

Polysaccharide based self-healing and injectable hydrogels with reversible characteristics have widespread potential in protein drug delivery. However, it is a challenge to design the dynamic hydrogel for sequential release of protein drugs. Herein, we developed a novel mussel inspired sequential protein delivery dynamic polysaccharide hydrogel.

Article Synopsis
  • - Persistent oxidative stress and inflammation caused by radiation, especially when combined with skin wounds, leads to severe medical complications known as radiation combined with skin wounds (RCSWs), which have not received enough research focus despite their treatment challenges.
  • - Researchers developed a multifunctional hydrogel loaded with polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA-NPs) and small extracellular vesicles (MSC-sEV) to improve the harmful microenvironment linked to RCSWs, enhancing cell vitality and wound healing in laboratory tests.
  • - Analysis of gene expression related to the hydrogel treatment revealed important roles for pathways involved in wound repair and indicated that this innovative therapy represents a promising approach for managing RCSWs.

With the increasing number of oncology patients and the use of chemotherapeutic agents, tumour multidrug resistance is becoming more and more prevalent. The search for new tumour treatment strategies to overcome tumour multidrug resistance is urgent. In this study, we designed GSH and ROS dual-responsive tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs)-targeted nanoparticles (NPs) for the co-delivery of the clinical first-line anti-breast cancer chemotherapy drug paclitaxel (PTX) and baicalin (Bai), which re-educates TAMs to alter their phenotype.

Polymeric nanoparticles were widely used as delivery vehicles for targeted delivery of anticancer drugs, because of their targeting property and versatility. Mitochondria are one of the important organelles that regulate the apoptosis of cancer cells and can be considered as a pivotal target for cancer treatment. A pH-responsive charge-reversal and mitochondrial targeting nanoparticles, Vitamin B6-oligomeric hyaluronic acid-dithiodipropionic acid-berberine (B6-oHA-SS-Ber), were prepared in this study.
