Bare Iron Oxide Nanoparticles As Drug Delivery Carrier for the Short Cationic Peptide Lasioglossin pharmaceuticals Article Bare Iron Oxide Nanoparticles as Drug Delivery Carrier for the Short Cationic Peptide Lasioglossin Chiara Turrina , Sonja Berensmeier and Sebastian P. Schwaminger * Bioseparation Engineering Group, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Technical University of Munich, 80333 München, Germany; [email protected] (C.T.); [email protected] (S.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: New drug delivery systems are a potential solution for administering drugs to reduce common side effects of traditional methods, such as in cancer therapy. Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs) can increase the drugs’ biological activity through high binding efficiency and magnetically targeted drug delivery. Understanding the adsorption and release process of a drug to the carrier material plays a significant role in research to generate an applicable and controlled drug delivery system. This contribution focuses on the binding patterns of the peptide lasioglossin III from bee venom on bare IONs. Lasioglossin has a high antimicrobial behavior and due to its cationic properties, it has high binding potential. Considering the influence of pH, the buffer type, the particle concentration, and time, the highest drug loading of 22.7% is achieved in phosphate-buffered saline. Analysis of the desorption conditions revealed temperature and salt concentration sensitivity. The nanoparticles and peptide-ION complexes are analyzed with dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, and infrared spectroscopy. Additionally, cytotoxicity experiments performed on Escherichia coli show higher antimicrobial activity of bound lasioglossin than of the free peptide. Therefore, bare IONs are an interesting platform material for the development of drug-delivery carriers for cationic peptides. Citation: Turrina, C.; Berensmeier, S.; Schwaminger, S.P.

The polymers have the function of sta- bilizing the particles, preventing early immunogenic action, or are used to generate a controlled release mechanism [15,18,20]. In this case, the interaction with the drug, the cationic peptide lasioglossin (LL), should occur with the bare surface of IONs without coating. In drug delivery or bioseparation, the controlled adsorption and release of small biomolecules to and from the adsorbent material plays a major role. During the last few years, much research has been conducted to understand small biomolecules’ interaction with the inorganic bare IONs (BIONs) and amphoteric hydroxyl groups on the metal oxide surface [21,22]. The surface charge influences the adsorption behavior of amino acids as well as the amount of charged groups such as carboxylic acids and side chains. The coordinative complex formation due to ionic interactions of the iron ions on the surface of BIONs is pH-dependent [22,23]. Rawlings et al. have proven that lysine can undergo Pharmaceuticals 2021, 14, x FOR PEER REVIEW 2 of 17 strong hydrogen bonds with the surface of BIONs through the amine group and the peptide carbonyl [24].

Politechniki Av., PL 00-661 Warsaw, Poland * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Due to the unwanted toxic properties of some drugs, new efficient methods of protection of the organisms against that toxicity are required. New materials are synthesized to effectively disseminate the active substance without affecting the healthy cells. Thus far, a number of poly- mers have been applied to build novel drug delivery systems. One of interesting polymers for this purpose is povidone, pVP. Contrary to other polymeric materials, the synthesis of povidone nanoparticles can take place under various condition, due to good solubility of this polymer in several organic and inorganic solvents. Moreover, povidone is known as nontoxic, non-carcinogenic, and temperature-insensitive substance. Its flexible design and the presence of various functional groups allow connection with the hydrophobic and hydrophilic drugs. It is worth noting, that pVP is regarded as an ecofriendly substance. Despite wide application of pVP in medicine, it was not often selected for the production of drug carriers. This review article is focused on recent reports on the role povidone can play in micro- and nano drug delivery systems.

Northland Institute, Greater Noida, G. B. Nagar, U.P.,India. *Corres.author: [email protected] Abstract: Technological attempts have been made in the research and development of rate-controlled oral drug delivery systems to overcome physiological adversities, such as short gastric residence times (GRT) and unpredictable gastric emptying times (GET). Conventional oral dosage forms pose low bioavailability problems due to their rapid gastric transition from stomach, especially in case of drugs which are less soluble at alkaline pH of intestine. Similarly, drugs which produce their local action in stomach get rapidly emptied and do not get enough residence time in stomach. So, frequency of dose administration in such cases is increased. To avoid this problem, various efforts have been made to prolong the retention time of drug delivery system. In this review, we will discuss about the various approaches to produce gastro retention of drug delivery system, with current & recent developments of Stomach Specific floating drug delivery system. Key words: Gastro retention, Floating drug delivery system, Stomach specific drug delivery, gastric emptying time. INTRODUCTION:- The oral route is considered as the most promising route of drug delivery. Conventional drug delivery The oral delivery of drugs is the most preferred system achieves as well as maintained the drug route of administration due to ease of concentration within the therapeutically effective administration. Drug bioavailability of range needed for treatment, only when taken pharmaceutical oral dosage forms is influenced by several times a day.3 Drug that have narrow various factors.

With the help of nano-sized carriers, drugs can reach specific diseased areas, prolonging therapeutic efficacy while decreasing undesired side-effects. In addition, recent nanotechnological advances, such as surface stabilization and stimuli-responsive functionalization have also significantly improved the targeting capacity and therapeutic efficacy of the nanocarrier assisted drug delivery system. In this review, we evaluate recent advances in the development of different nanocarriers and their applications in therapeutics delivery. Keywords: nanomedicine; nanocarriers; drug delivery 1. Introduction Nanotechnology has emerged to be an area of active investigation, especially in its applications in medicine [1]. The nanoscale manipulation allows optimal targeting and delivery as well as the controllable release of drugs or imaging agents [2]. Among all the applications of nanotechnology in medicine, nanocarrier assisted drug delivery system has attracted significant research interest due to its great translational value. The small size of the nanocarriers can help drugs overcome certain biological barriers to reach diseased areas [3,4]. Taking advantage of different nano-sized materials and various structures, nanocarriers can help poorly soluble drugs become more bioavailable and protect easily degraded therapeutics from degradation [5,6].
