Machine learning predicts ecological risks of nanoparticles to soil microbial communities
This study merged raw high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data sets generated from 365 soil samples to reveal the potential ecological effects of NPs on soil microbial community by means of metadata analysis and machine learning methods. Metadata analysis showed that treatment with nanoparticles did not have a significant impact on the alpha diversity of the microbial community, but significantly altered the beta diversity. Unfortunately, the abundance of several beneficial bacteria, such as Dyella, Methylophilus, Streptomyces, which promote the growth of plants, and improve pathogenic resistance, was reduced under the additi...

Enhanced resonance energy transfer in gold nanoparticles bifunctionalized by tryptophan and riboflavin and its application in fluorescence bioimaging
Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces. 2023 May 12;227:113340. doi: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113340. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGold nanoparticles were functionalized by amino acid tryptophan and vitamin riboflavin - a resonance energy transfer (RET) pair of biomolecules. The presence of the gold nanoparticles resulted in 65% increase in RET efficiency. Because of enhanced RET efficiency, the photobleaching dynamics of the fluorescent molecules at the surface of the nanoparticles is different from that of molecules in solution. The observed effect was used for detection of the functionalized nanoparticles within biological mater...

Therapeutic effects of chitosan-embedded vitamin C, E nanoparticles against cisplatin-induced gametogenic and androgenic toxicity in adult male rats
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2021 May 29. doi: 10.1007/s11356-021-14516-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCisplatin, an anticancer drug used in treating various types of cancers, can cause reproductive toxicities during chemotherapy. Keeping this in view, the present study was designed to investigate the possible protective effects of normal vitamin C and E and vitamin C and E nanoparticles (embedded in chitosan) against cisplatin-induced reproductive toxicities. Vitamins C, E, and their nanoparticles in this regard proved to be an effective therapy. The work aimed to treat cisplatin-induced reproductive toxicities through v...

Thermosensitive chitosan/poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) nanoparticles embedded in aniline pentamer/silk fibroin/polyacrylamide as an electroactive injectable hydrogel for healing critical-sized calvarial bone defect in aging rat model
Int J Biol Macromol. 2022 May 28:S0141-8130(22)01166-7. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.05.176. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThermosensitive nanoparticles with phase transition abilities upon temperature change have been considered suitable materials in biomedical fields, especially thermo-sensitive drug delivery systems. Moreover, electroactive injectable hydrogel supporting bone regeneration of the elderly will highly be desired in bone tissue engineering applications. Herein, thermosensitive nanoparticles were fabricated using chitosan/poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) for simvastatin acid delivery. The nanoparticles were inco...

Cellular and Non-cellular Antioxidant Properties of Vitamin E-Loaded Metallic-Quercetin/Polycaprolactone Nanoparticles for the Treatment of Melanogenesis
AAPS PharmSciTech. 2023 Jun 22;24(6):141. doi: 10.1208/s12249-023-02588-7.ABSTRACTInhibition of melanogenesis by quercetin and vitamin E is extensively reported in the literature, independently, with limitations in antioxidant potential owing to less permeation, solubility, decreased bioavailability, and reduced stability. Thus, the aim of the present study was to synthesize a novel complex of metal ions (copper and zinc) with quercetin to enhance antioxidant properties which were confirmed by docking studies. Polycaprolactone-based nanoparticles of the synthesized complex (PCL-NPs, Q-PCL-NPs, Zn-Q-PCL-NPs, Cu-Q-PCL-NPs) w...

Alginate/chitosan nanoparticles for encapsulation and controlled release of vitamin B2.
Abstract This work aims at evaluating encapsulation and controlled release of vitamin B2 from alginate/chitosan nanoparticles. Ionotropic polyelectrolyte pre-gelation was used as production method being chitosan and alginate used as main materials. Nanoparticles were characterized in terms of average size, polydispersity index (PDI), zeta potential and vitamin entrapment efficiency. The average size for alginate/chitosan nanoparticles was 119.5 ± 49.9nm for samples without vitamin B2 and 104.0±67.2nm with the encapsulation of vitamin B2, presenting a PDI of 0.454±0.066 and 0.319±0.068, respectively. The nano...
