The application of combinational therapy breaks the limitation of monotherapy and achieves better clinical benefit for tumor therapy. Herein, a hyaluronic acid/Pluronic F68-based copolymer-mixed micelle was constructed for targeted delivery of chemotherapeutical agent docetaxel (PHDM) in combination with programmed cell death ligand-1(PD-L1) antibody. When PHDM+anti-PDL1 was injected into the blood system, PHDM could accumulate into tumor sites and target tumor cells via CD44-mediated endocytosis and possess tumor chemotherapy. While anti-PDL1 could target PD-L1 protein expressed on surface of tumor cells to the immune checkpoint blockade characteristic for tumor immunotherapy. This strategy could not only directly kill tumor cells but also improve CD8+ T cell level and facilitate effector cytokines release. In conclusion, the rational-designed PHDM+anti-PDL1 therapy strategy creates a new way for tumor immune-chemotherapy.

Methotrexate (MTX) is an anchor drug for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, long-term and high-dose usage of MTX for patients can cause many side effects and toxic reactions. To address these difficulties, selectively delivering MTX to the inflammatory site of a joint is promising in the treatment of RA. In this study, we prepared MTX-PEI@HA nanoparticles (NPs), composed of hyaluronic acid (HA) as the hydrophilic negative electrical shell, and MTX-linked branched polyethyleneimine (MTX-PEI) NPs as the core. MTX-PEI@HA NPs were prepared in the water phase by a one-pot method. The polymeric NPs were selectively internalized via CD44 receptor-mediated endocytosis in the activated macrophages. In the in vivo mice mode study, treatment with MTX-PEI@HA NPs mitigated inflammatory arthritis with notable safety at a high dose of MTX. We highlight the distinct advantages of aqueous-synthesized NPs coated with HA for arthritis-selective targeted delivery, thus verifying MTX-PEI@HA NPs as a promising MTX-based nanoplatform for treatment of RA.

Modern drug delivery systems demand the development of targeted polymer-carriers with the set of obligatory requirements. Thus, such capsules must have total biocompatibility, biodegradability, and possess non-allergenic, and non-tumorigenic properties. Hyaluronic acid (HA), as a natural linear polysaccharide that is included in the pericellular and extracellular matrixes, satisfies all these demands in the best possible way. In this study, the biopolymer nanoparticles with an average diameter of 300 nm were successfully obtained from aqueous HA solutions by electrospraying technique and characterized. Due to the presence of active functional groups in the structure of HA, such polymer particles can incorporate various pharmaceutical agents. This finding expands the investigation and subsequent application of drug-loaded nanoparticles based on HA as challenging and advanced targeted delivery systems.
