The aim of this study was to develop multifunctional magnetic poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) mats with antibacterial properties for bone tissue engineering and osteosarcoma prevention. To provide good dispersion of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs), they were first grafted with PCL using a novel three-step approach. Then, a series of PCL-based mats containing a fixed amount of ION@PCL particles and an increasing content of ascorbic acid (AA) was prepared by electrospinning. AA is known for increasing osteoblast activity and suppressing osteosarcoma cells. Composites were characterized in terms of morphology, mechanical properties, hydrolytic stability, antibacterial performance, and biocompatibility. AA affected both the fiber diameter and the mechanical properties of the nanocomposites. All produced mats were nontoxic to rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal cells; however, a composite with 5 wt.% of AA suppressed the initial proliferation of SAOS-2 osteoblast-like cells. Moreover, AA improved antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli compared to PCL. Overall, these magnetic composites, reported for the very first time, can be used as scaffolds for both tissue regeneration and osteosarcoma prevention.

Cíl: Využití magnetických nanočástic jako multifunkčních materiálů pro současnou diagnostiku a terapii. Úvod: Rychlý vývoj v oblasti nanotechnologií usnadnil vznik nových nanomateriálů. S tímto trendem je také spojen zvýšený zájem o nano a mikro systémy tvořené magnetickými nosiči. Spojením magnetického nosiče s biologicky aktivní látkou lze dosáhnout unikátních vlastností využitelných v mnoha oblastech biotechnologie a medicíny. Popis problematiky: Mezi nejvíce studované materiály se řadí magnetické nanočástice tvořené oxidy železa. V současné době se velká pozornost věnuje superparamagnetickým nanočásticím oxidů železa, tzv. SPIONs (superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles), které pod určitou hranicí velikosti (1–20 nm) vykazují jednodoménový charakter, který způsobuje jev zvaný superparamagnetismus. Vedle velikosti částic jsou důležité povrchové vlastnosti. Velikost povrchu (řádově 100 m2/g) umožňuje jeho modifikaci, čímž je zvýšena biokompatibilita částic a snížena toxicita. Magnetické nanočástice mají značný potenciál využití v biomedicínských aplikacích, a to zejména v oblasti teranostiky. V současnosti jsou nanočásticové systémy studovány zejména k zesílení kontrastu u zobrazovacích technik MRI, v pozitronové emisní tomografii, případně lze využít přeměny magnetické energie na energii tepelnou, čehož využívá metoda zvaná hypertermie. Další využití představuje separace, analýza buněk nebo značení buněk, které se zdá být slibné v oblasti zobrazovacích metod. Závěr: Jak se ukazuje, problematika uplatnění magnetických nanočástic v lékařství je rozsáhlá. Prvotní výzvou je syntéza těchto nanočástic, přičemž existuje řada postupů, které poskytují nanočástice o různých vlastnostech. Kvůli povaze nanočástic je také nutné věnovat velikou pozornost jejich stabilizaci, aby se předcházelo agregaci a v případě jejich použití jakožto nosiče je taktéž nutné vyřešit problém zachycení požadované látky. Tyto problémy jsou stále předmětem výzkumu, ale i přes tyto obtíže představují magnetické nanočástice potenciální mocný nástroj pro současnou diagnostiku a terapii.
Aim: Application of magnetic nanoparticles as multimodal materials for current diagnostics and therapy. Introduction: Rapid developments in nanotechnology have facilitated the emergence of new nanomaterials. This trend is also associated with an increased interest in nano and micro systems consisting of magnetic carriers. By combining a magnetic vector with a biologically active substance, unique properties can be achieved which can be used in many areas of biotechnology and medicine. Issues description: The most common materials are magnetic nanoparticles synthesised of iron oxides. Currently, widely studied are superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, socalled SPIONs, which below a certain size range (1–20 nm) exhibit a single-domain character, which causes a phenomenon called superparamagnetism. In addition to particle size, surface properties are important. The surface size (in the order of 100 m2/g) allows its modification, which increases the biocompatibility of particles and reduces toxicity. Magnetic nanoparticles have considerable potential for use in biomedical applications, especially in the field of teranostics. At present, nanoparticle systems are studied mainly as contrast agents in MR imaging techniques, in positron emission tomography, or the conversion of magnetic energy into thermal energy can be used, which uses a method called hyperthermia. Other uses include separation, cell analysis, or cell labeling, which appear promising in imaging methods. Conclusion: As shown, the application of magnetic nanoparticles in medicine is extensive. The primary challenge is the synthesis of these nanoparticles, and there are a number of processes that provide nanoparticles with different properties. Due to the nature of nanoparticles, the care must also be taken to stabilize them in order to prevent aggregation, and in the case of their use as carriers, it is also necessary to solve the problem of entrapment of the desired substance. These problems are still the subject of research, but despite these difficulties, magnetic nanoparticles are a potentially powerful tool for current diagnostics and therapy.

Magnetic iron oxide nanocrystals (MIONs) are established as potent theranostic nanoplatforms due to their biocompatibility and the multifunctionality of their spin-active atomic framework. Recent insights have also unveiled their attractive near-infrared photothermal properties, which are, however, limited by their low near-infrared absorbance, resulting in noncompetitive photothermal conversion efficiencies (PCEs). Herein, we report on the dramatically improved photothermal conversion of condensed clustered MIONs, reaching an ultrahigh PCE of 71% at 808 nm, surpassing the so-far MION-based photothermal agents and even benchmark near-infrared photothermal nanomaterials. Moreover, their surface passivation is achieved through a simple self-assembly process, securing high colloidal stability and structural integrity in complex biological media. The bifunctional polymeric canopy simultaneously provided binding sites for anchoring additional cargo, such as a strong near-infrared-absorbing and fluorescent dye, enabling in vivo optical and photoacoustic imaging in deep tissues, while the iron oxide core ensures detection by magnetic resonance imaging. In vitro studies also highlighted a synergy-amplified photothermal effect that significantly reduces the viability of A549 cancer cells upon 808 nm laser irradiation. Integration of such-previously elusive-photophysical properties with simple and cost-effective nanoengineering through self-assembly represents a significant step toward sophisticated nanotheranostics, with great potential in the field of nanomedicine.

Introduction: Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) with multiple functionalities are intriguing candidates for various biomedical applications. Materials and Methods: This study introduced a simple and green synthesis of Fe3O4 NPs using a low-cost stabilizer of plant waste extract rich in polyphenols content with a well-known antioxidant property as well as anticancer ability to eliminate colon cancer cells. Herein, Fe3O4 NPs were fabricated via a facile co-precipitation method using the crude extract of Garcinia mangostana fruit peel as a green stabilizer at different weight percentages (1, 2, 5, and 10 wt.%). The samples were analyzed for magnetic hyperthermia and then in vitro cytotoxicity assay was performed. Results: The XRD planes of the samples were corresponding to the standard magnetite Fe3O4 with high crystallinity. From TEM analysis, the green synthesized NPs were spherical with an average size of 13.42±1.58 nm and displayed diffraction rings of the Fe3O4 phase, which was in good agreement with the obtained XRD results. FESEM images showed that the extract covered the surface of the Fe3O4 NPs well. The magnetization values for the magnetite samples were ranging from 49.80 emu/g to 69.42 emu/g. FTIR analysis verified the functional groups of the extract compounds and their interactions with the NPs. Based on DLS results, the hydrodynamic sizes of the Fe3O4 nanofluids were below 177 nm. Furthermore, the nanofluids indicated the zeta potential values up to -34.92±1.26 mV and remained stable during four weeks of storage, showing that the extract favorably improved the colloidal stability of the Fe3O4 NPs. In the hyperthermia experiment, the magnetic nanofluids showed the acceptable specific absorption rate (SAR) values and thermosensitive performances under exposure of various alternating magnetic fields. From results of in vitro cytotoxicity assay, the killing effects of the synthesized samples against HCT116 colon cancer cells were mostly higher compared to those against CCD112 colon normal cells. Remarkably, the Fe3O4 NPs containing 10 wt.% of the extract showed a lower IC50 value (99.80 µg/mL) in HCT116 colon cancer cell line than in CCD112 colon normal cell line (140.80 µg/mL). Discussion: This research, therefore, introduced a new stabilizer of Garcinia mangostana fruit peel extract for the biosynthesis of Fe3O4 NPs with desirable physiochemical properties for potential magnetic hyperthermia and colon cancer treatment.

With the aim to develop a new anticancer agent, we prepared poly[N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide-co-methyl 2-methacrylamidoacetate] [P(HP-MMAA)], which was reacted with hydrazine to poly[N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide-co-N-(2-hydrazinyl-2-oxoethyl)methacrylamide] [P(HP-MAH)] to conjugate doxorubicin (Dox) via hydrazone bond. The resulting P(HP-MAH)-Dox conjugate was used as a coating of magnetic γ-Fe2 O3 nanoparticles obtained by the coprecipitation method. In vitro toxicity of various concentrations of Dox, P(HP-MAH)-Dox, and γ-Fe2 O3 @P(HP-MAH)-Dox nanoparticles was determined on somatic healthy cells (human bone marrow stromal cells hMSC), human glioblastoma line (GaMG), and primary human glioblastoma (GBM) cells isolated from GBM patients both at a short and prolonged exposition time (up to 7 days). Due to hydrolysis of the hydrazone bond in acid milieu of tumor cells and Dox release, the γ-Fe2 O3 @P(HP-MAH)-Dox nanoparticles significantly decreased the GaMG and GBM cell growth compared to free Dox and P(HP-MAH)-Dox in low concentration (10 nM), whereas in hMSCs it remained without effect. γ-F2 O3 @PHP nanoparticles alone did not affect the viability of any of the tested cells.

The magnetic metal-organic framework Fe3O4@(Fe-(benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid) (MMOF) was prepared, characterized and studied as a magnetic sorbent for the dispersive solid-phase extraction (DSPE) of several widely used blood lipid regulators (i.e., bezafibrate, clofibric acid, clofibrate, gemfibrozil and fenofibrate) from water samples. Characterization of the synthesized Fe3O4@Fe-BTC magnetic nanomaterial was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffractometry, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The magnetic nanocomposite was found to be chemically stable and to possess a large surface area (803.62 m2/g) and pore volume (0.59 cm³/g). The concentrations of fibrates in different water samples were determined using HPLC-UV-Vis and confirmed by UPLC-MS/MS. Parameters affecting the extraction efficiency of magnetic-DSPE were studied and optimized. The maxima absorption capacities (Qmax) were determined to be (in mg/g) 197.0 for bezafibrate, 620.3 for clofibric acid, 537.6 for clofibrate, 288.7 gemfibrozil and 223.2 for fenofibrate. Validations of the optimized magnetic DSPE method for analyses at two fibrate concentrations in spiked water samples produced relative recovery values ≤ 70% for clofibrate and within the range of 80-100% for bezafibrate, clofibric acid, gemfibrozil and fenofibrate. LODs ranging from 4 μg/L for fenofibrate to 99 μg/L for gemfibrozil were obtained. The validated methodology produced recovery values ranging from 70 to 112% (relative standard deviations < 7%).

In this work, interactions of carboxylated core shell magnetic nanoparticles with polymyxin B sulfate were studied by connecting capillary electrophoresis with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The interaction was probed by affinity mode of capillary electrophoresis with 25 mM phosphate buffer at physiological pH. 54Fe, 56Fe, 57Fe, 34S, and 12C isotopes were used to monitor the migration of an electroosmotic flow marker and the interaction of the nanoparticles with polymyxin B. The analysis of interaction data showed two distinct interaction regions, one with low polymyxin B concentration, the second with high polymyxin B concentration. These regions differed in the strength of the interaction, 1.49 × 107 M-1 and 1.60 × 104 M-1, and in the stoichiometry of 0.7 and 3.5, respectively. These differences can be explained by the decrease of electrostatic repulsion between nanoparticles caused by polymyxin B. This is also in agreement with the nanoparticles peak shapes: sharp for low polymyxin B concentrations and broad for high polymyxin B concentrations.
Flumequine was nano-immobilized by self-assembly on iron oxide nanoparticles, called surface active maghemite nanoparticles (SAMNs). The binding process was studied and the resulting core-shell nanocarrier (SAMN@FLU) was structurally characterized evidencing a firmly immobilized organic canopy on which the fluorine atom of the antibiotic was exposed to the solvent. The antibiotic efficacy of the SAMN@FLU nanocarrier was tested on a fish pathogenic bacterium (Aeromonas veronii), a flumequine sensitive strain, in comparison to soluble flumequine and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) were assessed. Noteworthy, the MIC and MBC of soluble and nanoparticle bound drug were superimposable. Moreover, the interactions between SAMN@FLU nanocarrrier and microorganism were studied by transmission electron microscopy evidencing the ability of the complex to disrupt the bacterial wall. Finally, a preliminary in vivo test was provided using Daphnia magna as animal model. SAMN@FLU was able to protect the crustacean from the fatal consequences of a bacterial infection and showed no sign of toxicity. Thus, in contrast with the strength of the interaction, nano-immobilized FLU displayed a fully preserved antimicrobial activity suggesting the crucial role of fluorine in the drug mechanism of action. Besides the importance for potential applications in aquaculture, the present study contributes to the nascent field of nanoantibiotics.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-associated protein (CRISPR/Cas9) system has become a revolutionary tool for gene editing. Since viral delivery systems have significant side effects, and naked DNA delivery is not an option, the nontoxic, non-viral delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 components would significantly improve future therapeutic delivery. In this study, we aim at characterizing nanoparticles to deliver plasmid DNA encoding for the CRISPR-Cas system in eukaryotic cells in vitro. CRISPR/Cas9 complexed polyethylenimine (PEI) magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were generated. We used a stable HEK293 cell line expressing the traffic light reporter (TLR-3) system to evaluate efficient homology- directed repair (HDR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) events following transfection with NPs. MNPs have been synthesized by co-precipitation with the average particle size around 20 nm in diameter. The dynamic light scattering and zeta potential measurements showed that NPs exhibited narrow size distribution and sufficient colloidal stability. Genome editing events were as efficient as compared to standard lipofectamine transfection. Our approach tested non-viral delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 and DNA template to perform HDR and NHEJ in the same assay. We demonstrated that PEI-MNPs is a promising delivery system for plasmids encoding CRISPR/Cas9 and template DNA and thus can improve safety and utility of gene editing.

A three dimensional magnetic patterning of two cell types was realised in vitro inside an additive manufactured magnetic scaffold, as a conceptual precursor for the vascularised tissue. The realisation of separate arrangements of vascular and osteoprogenitor cells, labelled with biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles, was established on the opposite sides of the scaffold fibres under the effect of non-homogeneous magnetic gradients and loading magnetic configuration. The magnetisation of the scaffold amplified the guiding effects by an additional trapping of cells due to short range magnetic forces. The mathematical modelling confirmed the strong enhancement of the magnetic gradients and their particular geometrical distribution near the fibres, defining the preferential cell positioning on the micro-scale. The manipulation of cells inside suitably designed magnetic scaffolds represents a unique solution for the assembling of cellular constructs organised in biologically adequate arrangements.
