Abstract: In this study,we reported the hyaluronic acid (HA) on supramolecular structure of Pluronic F-127 (PLF-127) and/
or Pluronic F-108 (PLF-127) hydrogels, as well as their effects on release mechanisms, looking forward their application
as lidocaine (LDC) drug-delivery systems in arthroplastic surgeries.We have studied the HA-micelle interaction
using Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), themicellization and sol-gel transition processes by Differential
Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Rheology., of PL-based hydrogels and. The presence of HA provided the formation
of larger micellar dimensions from ~26.0 to 42.4 nm. The incorporation of HA did not change the micellization
temperatures and stabilized hydrogels rheological properties (G′ N G″), showing no interference on PLthermoreversible
properties. Small-Angle-X-ray Scattering (SAXS) patterns revealed that HA incorporation effects
were pronounced for PLF-127 and PLF-108 systems, showing transitions from lamellar to hexagonal
phase organization (HA-PLF-127) and structural changes from cubic to gyroid and/or cubic to lamellar. The HA
insertion effects were also observed on drug release profiles, since lower LDC release constants (Krel =
0.24–0.41 mM·h−1) were observed for HA-PLF-127, that presented a hexagonal phase organization. Furthermore,
the HA-PL systems presented reduced in vitro cytotoxic effects, pointed out their tendency to selfassembly
and possible application as drug delivery systems.

Abstract: ObjectivesOxethazaine (OXZ) is one of the few local anaesthetics that provides analgesia at low pH, but presents poor solubility, cytotoxicity and no parenteral formulations. To address these issues, we aimed to prepare OXZ host-guest inclusion complex with hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP--CD).
MethodsThe inclusion complex was formed by co-solubilization, followed by a job plot analysis to determine stoichiometry of complexation and dialysis equilibrium analysis (based on UV/VIS absorption and fluorescence profiles of OXZ). Complex formation was confirmed by phase-solubility data, X-ray, Scanning Electron Microscopy and DOSY-H-1-NMR experiments. In vitro cytotoxicity was analysed by MTT test in 3T3 fibroblasts. In vivo analgesia was tested by Von Frey test (inflammatory wounds - rats).
Key findingsOxethazaine complexed (1 : 1 molar ratio) with HP--CD, as indicated by loss of OZX crystalline structure (X-ray) and strong host: guest interaction (NMR, K = 198/M), besides increased solubility. In vitro cell survival improved with the complex (IC50 OXZ = 28.9 m, OXZ : HP--CD = 57.8 m). In addition, the complex (0.1% OXZ) promoted in vivo analgesia for the same time that 2% lidocaine/epinephrine did.
Conclusion Our results show that complexation improved physicochemical and biological properties of OXZ, allowing its application to inflamed tissues by parenteral routes.

Abstract: In the last years, nanostructured biomaterials have raised a great interest as platforms for delivery of drugs, genes, imaging agents and for tissue engineering applications. In particular, hydrogel nanoparticles (HNP) associate the distinctive features of hydrogels (high water uptake capacity, biocompatibility) with the advantages of being possible to tailor its physicochemical properties at nano-scale to increase solubility, immunocompatibility and cellular uptake. In order to be safe, HNP for biomedical applications, such as injectable or ophthalmic formulations, must be sterile. Literature is very scarce with respect to sterilization effects on nanostructured systems, and even more in what concerns HNP. This work aims to evaluate the effect and effectiveness of different sterilization methods on chitosan (CS) hydrogel nanoparticles. In addition to conventional methods (steam autoclave and gamma irradiation), a recent ozone-based method of sterilization was also tested. A model chitosan-tripolyphosphate (TPP) hydrogel nanoparticles (CS-HNP), with a broad spectrum of possible applications was produced and sterilized in the absence and in the presence of protective sugars (glucose and mannitol). Properties like size, zeta potential, absorbance, morphology, chemical structure and cytotoxicity were evaluated. It was found that the CS-HNP degrade by autoclaving and that sugars have no protective effect. Concerning gamma irradiation, the formation of agglomerates was observed, compromising the suspension stability. However, the nanoparticles resistance increases considerably in the presence of the sugars. Ozone sterilization did not lead to significant physical adverse effects, however, slight toxicity signs were observed, contrarily to gamma irradiation where no detectable changes on cells were found. Ozonation in the presence of sugars avoided cytotoxicity. Nevertheless, some chemical alterations were observed in the nanoparticles.

Abstract: Cancer is responsible for more than 12% of all causes of death in the world, with an annual death rate
of more than 7 million people. In this scenario melanoma is one of the most aggressive ones with serious
limitation in early detection and therapy. In this direction we developed, characterized and tested
in vivo a new drug delivery system based on magnetic core-mesoporous silica nanoparticle that has
been doped with dacarbazine and labelled with technetium 99 m to be used as nano-imaging agent
(nanoradiopharmaceutical) for early and differential diagnosis and melanoma by single photon emission
computed tomography. The results demonstrated the ability of the magnetic core-mesoporous silica to
be efficiently (>98%) doped with dacarbazine and also efficiently labelled with 99mTc (technetium
99 m) (>99%). The in vivo test, using inducted mice with melanoma, demonstrated the EPR effect of
the magnetic core-mesoporous silica nanoparticles doped with dacarbazine and labelled with technetium
99 metastable when injected intratumorally and the possibility to be used as systemic injection
too. In both cases, magnetic core-mesoporous silica nanoparticles doped with dacarbazine and labelled
with technetium 99 metastable showed to be a reliable and efficient nano-imaging agent for
melanoma.

Abstract: Breast cancer is women’s most common type of cancer, with a global rate of over 522,000 deaths per
year. One of the main problems related to breast cancer relies in the early detection, as the specialized
treatment. In this direction was developed, characterized and tested in vivo a smart delivery system,
based on radiolabelled magnetic core mesoporous silica doped with trastuzumab as intralesional nanodrug
for breast cancer imaging and possible therapy. The results showed that nanoparticles had a size
of 58.9 ± 8.1 nm, with specific surface area of 872 m2/g and pore volume of 0.85 cm3/g with a pore
diameter of 3.15 nm. The magnetic core mesoporous silica was efficiently labelled with 99mTc (97.5%
±0.8) and doped >98%. The cytotoxicity assay, demonstrated they are safe to use. The data were corroborated
with the IC50 result of: 829.6 mg ± 43.2. The biodistribution showed an uptake by the tumour
of 7.5% (systemic via) and 97.37% (intralesional) with less than 3% of these nanoparticles absorbed by
healthy tissues. In a period 6-h post-injection, no barrier delimited by the tumour was crossed, corroborating
the use as intralesional nanodrug.

Abstract: Gamma radiation has been shown particularly useful for the functionalization
of surfaces with stimuli-responsive polymers. This method involves the
formation of active sites (free radicals) onto the polymeric backbone as a result of
the high-energy radiation exposition over the polymeric material. Thus, a
microenvironment suitable for the reaction among monomer and/or polymer and the
active sites is formed and then leading to propagation to form side-chain grafts. The
modification of polymers using high-energy irradiation can be performed by the
following methods: direct or simultaneous, pre-irradiation oxidative, and pre-irradiation.
The most frequently used ones correspond to the pre-irradiation oxidative
method as well as the direct one. Radiation-grafting has many advantages over other
conventional methods because it does not require the use of catalyst nor additives to
initiate the reaction and usually no changes on the mechanical properties with
respect to the pristine polymeric matrix are observed. This chapter is focused on the
synthesis of smart polymers and coatings obtained by the use of gamma radiation. In
addition, the diverse applications of these materials in the biomedical area are also
reported, with focus in drug delivery, sutures, and biosensors.

Abstract: Background. Nanoparticles show promise for theranostic applications in cancer. The metal-based nanoparticles can be used both as photosensitizers and delivery vehicles. In bimetallic particles based on gold or silver and iron, a combination of the plasmonic features of the gold or silver components with the magnetic properties of the iron makes these hybrid nanomaterials suitable for both imaging and therapeutic applications. Herein, we discuss toxicity and cell internalization of metallic (silver and gold) and bimetallic (silver-iron, gold-iron, and silver-gold) aminolevulinic acid (ALA) nanoparticles. ALA can control the production of an intracellular photosensitizer, protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), commonly used in photodynamic therapy. Methods. Nanoparticles were synthesized by photoreduction method and characterized by UV/Vis spectra, Zeta potential, FTIR, XRD, and transmission electron microscopy. The amount of singlet oxygen generation by a yellow LED, and ultrasound was studied for gold, gold-iron, and silver-gold nanoparticles. Cytotoxicity assays of MCF-7 in the presence of nanoparticles were performed, and PpIX fluorescence was quantified by high content screening (HCS). Results. Red fluorescence observed after 24 h of nanoparticles incubation on MCF-7 cells, indicated that the ALA in surface of nanoparticles was efficiently converted to PpIX. The best results for singlet oxygen generation with LED or ultrasound irradiation were obtained with ALA:AgAuNPs. Conclusions. The studied nanoparticles present the potential to deliver aminolevulinic acid to breast cancer cells efficiently, generate singlet oxygen, and convert ALA into PpIX inside the cells allowing photodiagnosis and therapies such as photodynamic and sonodynamic therapies.

Abstract: An effective antitumor remedy is yet to be developed. All previous approaches for a targeted delivery of anticancer medicine have relied on trial and error. The goal of this study was to use structural insights gained from the study of delivery systems and malignant cells to provide for a systematic approach to the development of next-generation drugs. We used doxorubicin (Dox) liposomal formulations. We assayed for cytotoxicity via the electrical current exclusion method. Dialysis of the samples yielded information about their drug release profiles. Information about the surface of the delivery systems was obtained through synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements. SAXS measurements revealed that Dox-loading yielded an abraded surface of our Dox liposomal formulation containing soybean oil, which also correlated with an effective reduction of the survival of carcinoma cells. Furthermore, a dialysis assay revealed that a higher burst of Dox was released from soybean oil-containing preparations within the first five hours. We conclude from our results that an abraded surface of Dox-loaded drug delivery system increases their efficacy. The apparent match between surface geometry of drug delivery systems and target cells is suggested as a steppingstone for refined development of drug delivery systems. This is the first study to provide a systematic approach to developing next-generation drug carrier systems using structural insights to guide the development of next-generation drug delivery systems with increased efficacy and reduced side effects.
