Macromolecule Loading into Spherical,Elliptical, Star‐Like and Cubic Calcium Carbonate Carriers

We fabricated calcium carbonate particles with spherical, elliptical, star‐like and cubical morphologies by varying relative salt concentrations and adding ethylene glycol as a solvent to slow down the rate of particle formation. The loading capacity of particles of different isotropic (spherical and cubical) and anisotropic (elliptical and star‐like) geometries is investigated, and the surface area of such carriers is analysed. Potential applications of such drug delivery carriers are highlighted.

Construction of Flexible-on-Rigid Hybrid-Phase Metal–Organic Frameworks for Controllable Multi-Drug Delivery

Multi-component MOFs contain multiple sets of unique and hierarchical pores, with different functions for different applications, distributed in their inter-linked domains. Herein, we report the construction of a class of precisely aligned flexible-on-rigid hybrid-phase MOFs with a unique rods-on-octahedron morphology. We demonstrated that hybrid-phase MOFs can be constructed based on two prerequisites: the partially matched topology at the interface of the two frameworks, and the structural flexibility of MOFs with acs topology, which can compensate for the differences in lattice parameters. Furthermore, we achieved domain selective loading of multiple guest molecules into the hybrid-phase MOF, as observed by scanning transmission electron microscopy–energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry elemental mapping. Most importantly, we successfully applied the constructed hybrid-phase MOF to develop a dual-drug delivery system with controllable loading ratio and release kinetics.     

Cationic Lipid-based Intracellular Delivery of Bacterial Effectors for Rewiring Malignant Cell Signaling

The abundance of bacterial effectors have inspired us to explore their potential in rewiring malignant cell signaling. Their incapability for entering cells, however, hinders such application. Herein we developed a cationic lipid-based high throughput library screening platform for effective intracellular delivery of bacterial effectors. As the misregulated MAPK signaling is a hallmark of many types of cancer, we turned to the Shigella effector OspF which irreversibly inactivates ERK, the terminal component of MAPK cascade. We created a function-based screening assay to obtain AMPA-O16B lipid nanoparticles for effective OspF intracellular delivery, which inhibited the malignant MAPK signaling and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, the optimized lipid nanoparticle formulation can deliver OspF to modulate the immunosuppressive responses in macrophages. Our work is a general strategy to explore the therapeutic potentials of naturally evolved bacterial effectors.     

Photocontrolled Release of the Anticancer Drug Chlorambucil with Caged Harmonic Nanoparticles

While chemotherapy is one of the most used treatments in oncology, the systemic administration of chemotherapeutics generally results in undesired damages to healthy tissues and cells, side effects such as severe nausea and leukopenia, and reduced efficacy due to multidrug resistance and poor target accessibility. The limitations of conventional chemotherapy formulation have prompted the development of alternative nanomaterials-based strategies to achieve targeted and stimuli sensitive payload delivery to reach optimal local drug concentration at tumor sites. In this study, the anticancer drug chlorambucil (Clb) was conjugated to the surface of silica coated lithium niobate (LNO) harmonic nanoparticles (HNPs) using a photocaging tether based on coumarin-4-yl methyl derivative. Upon laser pulsed femtosecond irradiation at 790 nm, the second harmonic emission from the metal oxide core induced the efficient release of Clb, with concomitant contribution from the nonlinear absorption of the coumarin (CM)-based moiety.     

Fabrication,characterization and in vivo evaluation of dexpanthenol sustained-release nanofibers for wound healing

In this study, wound dressings consisting of dexpanthenol (Dex)-loaded electrospun nanofibers were fabricated using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/sodium alginate (SA), and chitosan as the core and the shell, respectively. Considering the remarkable properties of chitosan, it was used as a shell against drug release and to improve the thermal stability, and tensile strength of the scaffold. By comparing the thermogravimetric, and tensile strength results of nanofibers with and without shell, it was revealed that the presence of chitosan in the shell side could improve the thermal stability and increased the tensile strength by about three times. The isotherm models of dexpanthenol release from the PVA/SA/Dex-CS scaffold was best described by the Langmuir model. Besides, Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction techniques were performed to characterize nanofibers. Furthermore, an in vivo investigation of a wound dressing with dexpanthenol showed better healing compared to the wound dressings without dexpanthenol.     

用自行设计的自动分析系统测定高含量SO3--对硫酸钡浊度测定法的改进

为了解决湿法磷酸生产中高含量SO3的测定,对硫酸钡浊度测定法的反应条件进行了改进,并自行设计制造了自动化的分析系统。测定时样品由蠕动泵(P)推入酸化盘管(AC)中进行酸化和稀释,由定量环(Sv)取样25μL,注入反应系统。在第一反应盘管(RC1)中,SO3与第一混合试剂中的BaCl2溶液反应生成BaSO4悬浊液,该溶液中的聚乙二醇-4000(PEG-4000)和乙醇通过协同作用避免了BaSO4颗粒的团聚,降低粒子间的相互作用,使BaSO4的生成减少,降低了测定的灵敏度,提高了稳定性。在第二反应盘管(RC2)中,BaSO4与第二混合试剂中的NH3·H2O/乙二胺四乙酸二钠(Na2EDTA)溶液发生络合反应同时被Na2EDTA包裹,进一步降低其灵敏度。最后反应溶液进入流通式光度检测器,在680.0nm波长处测试BaSO4悬浊液的吸光度。经优化试验条件,上述第一混合试剂中3种组分的质量分数或体积分数为:BaCl24%,PEG-4000 3%和乙醇2%;第二混合试剂中Na2EDTA的质量分数为6%,NH3·H2O的体积分数为6%。对实际按本方法及重量法分析进行测定,两种方法所得结果的相对偏差在±2%以内,且不受共存的高含量PO43-和F-的干扰。
