Bioactive Phosphorus Dendrimers as a Universal Protein Delivery System for Enhanced Anti-inflammation Therapy

Huxiao Sun,
Mengsi Zhan,
Andrii Karpus
et al.

Abstract: Nanocarrier-based cytoplasmic protein delivery offers opportunities to develop protein therapeutics; however, many delivery systems are positively charged, causing severe toxic effects. For enhanced therapeutics, it is also of great importance to design nanocarriers with intrinsic bioactivity that can be integrated with protein drugs due to the limited bioactivity of proteins alone for disease treatment. We report here a protein delivery system based on anionic phosphite-terminated phosphorus dendrimers with i… Show more

“…It is noteworthy that the size of the AK128-aPD1@M1m NCs measured by TEM is smaller than their hydrodynamic size, measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS). It is likely due to the fact that TEM measures the size of single AK128-aPD1@M1m NCs in a dry state, while DLS measures the hydrodynamic size of the NCs in aqueous solution, which usually reflects a certain degree of aggregation of single particles …”

“…Efficient release of aPD1 from the AK128-aPD1@M1m NCs is necessary to exert its functions. Then, we attempted to illustrate the possible mechanism of protein release by investigating the hydrodynamic size change of the NCs at different pHs. , As shown in Figure S3A, two peaks appear in the hydrodynamic size distribution histogram of the AK128-aPD1 NCs at pH 6.5 (simulated tumor microenvironment), which is very different from that at pH 7.4. This may be because the pH affects the weak interaction forces between phosphorus dendrimers and aPD1.…”

“…As a representative of p-type direct bandgap semiconductors, BLK-P exhibits unique physical properties (Figure a). These include high carrier mobility (∼10 3 cm 2 /(V s) at room temperature), an adjustable bandgap width ranging from 0.3 to 2.0 eV based on the number of layers, a spectral response covering the visible to mid-infrared region, strong light-matter interactions, and distinctive intraplanar anisotropy in optical and electrical properties. , BLK-P has demonstrated significant potential for use in transistors, mid-infrared optoelectronic devices, optical communications, and highly sensitive thermal imaging. , Consequently, BLK-P, as a potential biomedical functional material with excellent biocompatibility and degradability, offers unique advantages for biomedical applications. , However, BLK-P is not stable enough and the precise structure is difficult to regulate …”

“…A study developed a protein delivery system using a phosphorus dendritic polymer capped with an anionic phosphite. This system can serve as a versatile carrier for delivering proteins, particularly for addressing various inflammatory diseases with improved therapeutic effectiveness . BLK-P quantum dots (BPQDs) were incorporated into polyethylene glycol-modified chitosan nanospheres containing the antibiotic amikacin, termed PEG@CS/BPQDs-AM NPs.…”
