Cyclodextrin-Based Polymeric Materials Bound to Corona Protein for Theranostic Applications

Abstract

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are cyclic oligosaccharide structures that could be used for theranostic applications in personalized medicine. These compounds have been widely utilized not only for enhancing drug solubility, stability, and bioavailability but also for controlled and targeted delivery of small molecules. These compounds can be complexed with various biomolecules, such as peptides or proteins, via host-guest interactions. CDs are amphiphilic compounds with water-hating holes and water-absorbing surfaces. Architectures of CDs allow the drawing and preparation of CD-based polymers (CDbPs) with optimal pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. These polymers can be cloaked with protein corona consisting of adsorbed plasma or extracellular proteins to improve nanoparticle biodistribution and half-life. Besides, CDs have become famous in applications ranging from biomedicine to environmental sciences. In this review, we emphasize ongoing research in biomedical fields using CD-based centered, pendant, and terminated polymers and their interactions with protein corona for theranostic applications. Overall, a perusal of information concerning this novel approach in biomedicine will help to implement this methodology based on host-guest interaction to improve therapeutic and diagnostic strategies.

Anti–inflammatory effects of cyclodextrin nanoparticles enable macrophage repolarization and combat inflammation

“…It would not only account for the observed stark reduction of extracellular cytokines after CDNP addition but might also partly explain the observed differences in particle performance [9,36,75,76]. For example, direct adsorption of proin ammatory stimuli, such as LPS or IFNγ, onto the surface of CDOC 6 and CDSC 6 NPs could be favorable, while the large aliphatic chains of CDOC 12 might negatively in uence or ultimately hinder such adsorbent effects [77,78].…”

“…These features endow CDs with great practical applications in many sectors, especially food, medicine, chemistry, chromatography, biotechnology, etc. [ 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 ]. Additionally, the host–guest interaction and easy modification have been used to prepare organic and/or inorganic battery components, such as electrodes, electrolytes, and binders.…”

“…It can protect the (GNR) from degradation, enzymatic reactions, or clearance by the immune system, thereby prolonging their existence and impact in the targeted area. [49][50][51] Additionally, selecting suitable coating agents enables the loading of therapeutic compound NRs and active targeting functions, increasing cytocompatibility and achieving targeted drug delivery. 52,53 Small molecule lipoic acid (LA), present in the human body naturally, has been shown to own both ROS scavenging and chelating metal features.…”
