Polymeric nanoparticles are being intensively investigated as drug carriers. Their efficiency could be enhanced if the drug release can be triggered using an external stimulus such as ultrasound. This approach is possible using current commercial apparatus that combine focused ultrasound with MRI to perform ultrasonic surgery. In this approach, nan...

Nanoparticle-structuring aimed at the acetic acid (A) transporter on intestinal epithelial cells and tumor cells is a new potential strategy to enhance oral bioavailability and anti-tumor efficacy. In this study, chitosan (CS) was modified with hydrophilic A and hydrophobic lipoic acid (L), to produce ACSL. A novel ACSL-modified multifunctional lip...

The salivary pellicle, an adlayer formed by adsorption of salivary components on teeth and dental biomaterials, has direct consequences on basic outcomes of dentistry. Here, we provide an overview of salivary pellicle formation processes with a critical focus on dental biomaterials. We describe and critique the array of salivary pellicle measuremen...

We report here a self-healing hydrogel with antibacterial and light-emitting properties for wound repair. The hydrogel was prepared by reaction of poly(aspartic acid) (PASP) derivatives bearing groups of quaternary ammonium and boronic acid with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). Due to the dynamic nature of boronic ester bonds, bacteria-killing activity o...

New molecular motifs that can act as pH-regulating triggers for amphiphilic, pH-sensitive block copolymers are investigated. Inspired by the mechanism of action of pH-indicators, such as methyl orange, and natural amino acids, we designed these copolymers where either 4-Amino-4'-dimethylaminoazobenzene, AZB (pKa 3.4, an amine derivative of methyl o...

Oil-in-water nanoemulsions are used in numerous biomedical applications as delivery systems. The droplet size in the nanometer range and their composition were extensively developed for carrying and enhancing the absorption of lipophilic drugs and lipids of interest. In the present study, critical parameters involved in the spontaneous nanoemulsifi...

Using yeast as organic template and PDDA/PSS with opposite charge as polyelectrolyte, CaCO3 was deposited on yeast cells by Layer-by-Layer self-assembly method, and then porous calcium carbonate hybrid microspheres (CaCO3-HMPs) were prepared by calcination. The CaCO3-HMPs were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM and TG. It was found that the prepared ...

A novel form of magnetic bead, namely antibody-coated magnetic lipid nano-vehicle (AMLV), was synthesized by embedding Fe3O4 nanoparticles into an amphiphilic antibody-modified liposome as a high-performance circulating tumor cell (CTC) hunter. The CTC capture performance of AMLV was validated based on an enlarged patient sample (including 318 colo...
