The principles of bioorthogonal click chemistry and metabolic glycoengineering were applied to produce targeted anti-cancer drug delivery via fattigation-platform-based gelatin-oleic nanoparticles. A sialic acid precursor (Ac4ManNAz) was introduced to the cell surface. Gelatin and oleic acid were conjugated by 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride/N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) chemistry with the subsequent covalent attachment of dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) in a click reaction on the cell surface. The physicochemical properties, drug release, in vitro cytotoxicity, and cellular uptake of DBCO-conjugated gelatin oleic nanoparticles (GON-DBCO; particle size, ~240 nm; zeta potential, 6 mV) were evaluated. Doxorubicin (DOX) was used as a model drug and compared with the reference product, Caelyx. A549 and MCF-7 cell lines were used for the in vitro studies. GON-DBCO showed high DOX loading and encapsulation efficiencies. In A549 cells, the IC50 value for GON-DBCO-DOX (1.29 μg/ml) was six times lower than that of Caelyx (10.54 μg/ml); in MCF-7 cells, the IC50 values were 1.78 μg/ml and 2.84 μg/ml, respectively. Confocal microscopy confirmed the click reaction between GON-DBCO and Ac4ManNAz on the cell surface. Flow cytometry data revealed that the intracellular uptake of GON-DBCO-DOX was approximately two times greater than that of GON-DOX and Caelyx. Thus, the newly designed GON-DBCO-DOX provided a safe and efficient drug delivery system to actively target the anticancer agents.

Chemical modification of chitosan derivatives with hydrophobic fatty acids to enhance their self-aggregation behavior is well established. Previously our group reported low molecular weight carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) which showed enhancement in apparent permeability of hydrophobic drug, tamoxifen. Further extension to this work, herein we synthesize a new polymer of oleic acid grafted low molecular weight carboxymethyl chitosan (OA-CMCS) for maneuvering biopharmaceutical performance of poorly water soluble drugs. This polymer was designed and synthesized via amidation reaction and well characterized by analytical tools like 1H-NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. OA-CMCS conjugate easily self-organized into micelles like structure in an aqueous medium and showed a low critical micellar concentration of 1 μg/mL. Poorly water-soluble drug, docetaxel (DTX) was used as a model drug in this study. Optimization of variables resulted in the formation of spherical DTX loaded OA-CMCS micelles in the size range of 213.4 ± 9.6 nm with an entrapment efficiency of 57.26 ± 1.25percent. DTX loaded OA-CMCS micelles showed slow and sustained DTX release behavior in simulated body fluid during in vitro release study. The permeability of DTX loaded OA-CMCS micelles across the gastrointestinal tract were investigated by in vitro Caco-2 cells model. The apparent permeability of DTX loaded OA-CMCS micelles improved up to 6.57-fold in comparison to free DTX suspension which indicates the increase in paracellular absorption of DTX. Additionally, in vivo pharmacokinetic study demonstrates an increase in Cmax (1.97-fold) and AUC (2.62-fold) for DTX loaded OA-CMCS micelles compared to free DTX suspension. Hence, we propose OA-CMCS as a promising cargo to incorporate drugs for enhancement of biopharmaceutical performance.

Chitosan, (1-4)-2-amino-2-deoxy-beta-d-glucan, is a deacetylated form of chitin, an abundant biodegradable, positively charged natural polysaccharide. Chitosan is used for antigen delivery through mucosal barrier due to its ability to disrupt tight junctions. Here we produced new water-soluble low-molecular weight chitosan (LMW-Chi) lipid derivatives and compared their ability to stimulate humoral response with the effect of unmodified LMW-Chi or its oligosaccharide derivatives. LMW-Chi effectively penetrated into macrophage-like, lymphoid and epithelial cells. It also stimulated in mice IgG production to model proteins delivered either by subcutaneous or intranasal routes. Adjuvant effect of chitosan derivatives was comparable to or lower than that of unmodified LMW-Chi. Thus, it is possible that adjuvant effect is induced by unmodified glucosamine units of chitosan.
