AbstractExosomes are nature’s nanocarriers that transport biological information in humans. Their structural properties, origin and functions are making them interesting objects for the diagnosis of diseases, such as cancer, and also, as innovative tools for drug delivery. The interaction of exosomes with the immune system has been one of the focal points of interest; nevertheless their “stealth” properties helping to avoid adverse immune reactions are still not fully understood. In this review, after giving an overview of recent findings on the role of exosomes in disease pathogenesis and physiological functions, we focused on their interaction with the immune system and possibilities for clinical applications. The potential of exosomes of creating stealth nanoparticles that are better tolerated by the immune system than the presently available synthetic drug delivery systems represent a promising new approach in nanomedicine.

В обзоре представлены современные данные о механизмах диагностики, планирования и оценки успешности терапии различных заболеваний с помощью экзосом, об использовании их как нанопереносчиков (т.е. нановезикул для эффективной доставки молекул). За последние годы разработано большое количество разных, в основном синтетических, систем доставки лекарственных средств, недостатками этих систем является плохая биосовместимость и органическая неспособность к высокоточной доставке загруженных веществ. По сравнению с синтетическими системами доставки лекарственных средств, экзосомы - вследствие своего естественного происхождения - могут обладать большими преимуществами, такими, как лучшая биосовместимость и повышенная устойчивость к разрушительному воздействию иммунной системы. Описана технология производства наноструктур, разработка и производство с помощью бионанотехнологий так называемых «полностью синтетических экзосомоподобных нановезикул», преимущества и недостатки этих методов. This review presents current data on mechanisms for diagnosis, planning, and evaluation of success in the treatment of various diseases using exosomes as nanocarriers (i.e., nanovesicles for efficient delivery of molecules). In recent years, a large number of different, mainly synthetic drug delivery systems has been developed. Disadvantages of these systems are poor biocompatibility and organic inability to deliver high-precision loaded substances. Compared with synthetic drug delivery systems, exosomes due to their natural origin may provide great advantages, such as better biocompatibility and increased resistance to detrimental effects of the immune system. This review describes in detail a technology of nanostructure production, the development and production of so-called fully synthetic exosome-like nanovesicles using bionanotechnology, and advantages and disadvantages of these methods.

: The corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has found its roots from Wuhan (China). COVID-19 is caused by a novel corona virus SARS-CoV2, previously named as 2019-nCoV. COVID-19 has spread across the globe and declared as pandemic by World health organization (WHO) on 11th March, 2020. Currently, there is no standard drug or vaccine available for the treatment, so repurposing of existing drugs is the only solution. Novel drug delivery systems (NDDS) will be boon for the repurposing of drugs. The role of various NDDS in repurposing of existing drugs for treatment of various viral diseases and their relevance in COVID-19 has discussed in this paper. It focuses on the currently ongoing research in the implementation of NDDS in COVID-19. Moreover it describes the role of NDDS in vaccine development for COVID-19. This paper also emphasizes how NDDS will help to develop the improved delivery systems (dosage forms) of existing therapeutic agents and also explore the new insights to find out the void spaces for a potential targeted delivery. So in these tough times, NDDS and nanotechnology can be a safeguard to humanity.

Colon cancer is one of the most prevalent diseases, and traditional chemotherapy has not been proven beneficial in its treatment. It ranks second in terms of mortality due to all cancers for all ages. Lack of selectivity and poor biodistribution are the biggest challenges in developing potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of colon cancer. Nanoparticles hold enormous prospects as an effective drug delivery system. The delivery systems employing the use of polymers, such as chitosan and pectin as carrier molecules, ensure the maximum absorption of the drug, reduce unwanted side effects and also offer protection to the therapeutic agent from quick clearance or degradation, thus allowing an increased amount of the drug to reach the target tissue or cells. In this systematic review of published literature, the author aimed to assess the role of chitosan and pectin as polymer-carriers in colon targeted delivery of drugs in colon cancer therapy. This review summarizes the various studies employing the use of chitosan and pectin in colon targeted drug delivery systems.

Inflammatory Bowel

The human intestine, which harbors trillions of symbiotic microorganisms, may enter into dysbiosis when exposed to a genetic defect or environmental stress. The naissance of chronic inflammation due to the battle of the immune system with the trespassing gut bacteria leads to the rise of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Though the genes behind the scenes and their link to the disease are still unclear, the onset of IBD occurs in young adults and has expanded from the Western world into the newly industrialized countries. Conventional drug deliveries depend on a daily heavy dosage of immune suppressants or anti-inflammatory drugs targeted for the treatment of two types of IBD, ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD), which are often associated with systemic side effects and adverse toxicities. Advances in oral delivery through nanotechnology seek remedies to overcome the drawbacks of these conventional drug delivery systems through improved drug encapsulation and targeted delivery. In this review, we discuss the association of genetic factors, the immune system, the gut microbiome, and environmental factors like diet in the pathogenesis of IBD. We also review the various physiological concerns required for oral delivery to the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and new strategies in nanotechnology-derived, colon-targeting drug delivery systems.
