14.5.1.3 Angiogenesis-Related Targeting
Solid tumours rely on an adequate blood supply to grow. Tumour and host cells secret different pro-angiogenic factors to develop new blood vessels including epidermal growth factor (EGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin-8, platelet-derived growth factor, platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor, tumour necrosis factor-α, basic broblast growth factor, angiogenin, angiotropin, and transforming growth factor-α (Baker and Fidler
2007). Inhibiting
the angiogenesis process may regulate the size and the metastatic capabilities of tumours (Folkman 1996). Moreover, actively targeting the tumour vasculature is advantageous as it has broad applicability since the tumour vasculature is not specic for the type of cancer. There is a lower risk of drug resistance with tumour vascular targeting due to the fact that the endothelial cells are more stable genetically than cancer cells, and due to the fact that nanomedicines could bind directly to their receptors without being required to extravasat e and penetrate the solid tumour (Kumar and Li 2001). Table 14.3 summarizes the active targeting nanomedicines developed against the major angiogenic targets including:
VEGF and their receptors, VEGFR-1, and VEGFR-2. VEGF levels are
upregulated by tumour hypoxia and oncogenes which leads to the upregulation of VEGFR on tumour endothelial cells, with VEGFR-2 being highly expressed in tumour neovasculature (Veikkola et al.
2000). Thus, the two main approaches are
to target: (i) VEGF to inhi bit binding toVEGFR-2 receptor or (ii) the VEGFR-2 receptor to decrease the VEGF binding (Carmeliet

integrins are highly expressed in tumour

and angiogenic endothelial cells having a key role in the calcium-dependent signalling pathways responsible for endothelial cell migration (Desgrosellier and Cheresh
2010; Nisato et al. 2003). Thus, RGD peptides or non-peptide
mimetics are potentially useful targeting ligands in cancer therapy.
Vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). VCAM-1 is an immunoglobulin- like transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on the surface of endothelial cancer cells that promotes cell-to-cell adhesion (Osborn et al. 1989). During angiogen­esis and metastasis, integrins bind to ECM proteins or cell surface immunoglob­ulins like VCAM-1 (Chen and Massague 2012). On normal vasculature, VCAM­1 is present and is inducible by angiogenesis and it is over-expressed in lympho­mas, leukaemias, melanoma, lung, breast, and gastric cancer, and renal cell carcinoma (Byrne et al. 2008).
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). MMPs belong to the zinc-dependent endo- peptidase family which can degrade all ECM proteins (Vihinen et al. 2005). MMPs have been implicated in many pathological processes such as carcinogen­esis. Their role in angiogenesis and metastasis is crucial as they are involved in forming the capillary tubes and recruiting accessory cells (Danhier et al. 2010 ). In

particular, the membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) activates MMP-2 (Gelatinase-A, 72 kDa gelatinase) which hydrolyses one of the major components of the basement membrane, the Type IV collagen, but also MT1-MMP cleaves the α et al. 2005). Thus, additive anticancer effects can be obtained by targeting the MT1-MMP. MT1-MMP is expressed on endothelial tumour cells and in a variety of cancer cells such as gliomas, melanomas, malignancies of lung, gastric, breast, cervical, and colon carcinomas (Genis et al. the aminopeptidase N/CD13 which is an endothelial cell-surface receptor involved in tumour-cell invasion, tumour metastasis, and extracellular matrix degradation by tumour cells.

14.5.2 Actively Targeted Nanomedicines for Transport
Across the Blood-Brain Barrier
Currently, more than 1.5 billion individuals are affected by CNS diseases such as cancer, psychiatric disorders, neurodegenerative, inammatory, and infective dis­eases (McGonigle 2012). There is an unmet clinical need and the development of actively targeted nanomedicines can be a potentially useful non-invasive approach in treating brain diseases. The major obstacle to delivering any therapeutic and/or imaging agent to the brain is the blood-brain barrier (BBB) which is a unique membranous barrier composed of tightly bound endothelial cells and perivascular astrocytes whose function is to segregate the brain from the systemic blood circula­tion to ensure CNS homeostasis for neuronal functions to optimally take place (Serrano-Lopez and Lalatsa 2013; Lalatsa et al. 2012c). The transport systems expressed within the cerebral endothelial cells have been exploited to design BBB active targeting nanomedicines. These transport systems are carrier-mediated trans­porters (CMT), receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME) transporters, and adsorptive­mediated endocytosis (AME) transporters and they all play a key role in the delivery of essential substances to the CNS (Beduneau et al. 2007). One of the major approaches is based on the use of targeting moieties able to mimic endogenous substances, which exhibit specicaffinities with CMT, RME, or AME systems. Table 14.4 summarizes several examples of CNS active targeted nanomedicines.
Carrier-Mediated Transport
The passage of nutrients of low molecular weight is mediated by carrier-mediated transport (CMT), which are highly expressed in the cerebral vessels of the BBB, including carriers for glucose (GLUT), monocarboxylic acids (MCT1), large neutral amino acids (LAT1), cationic amino acids, excitatory amino acids (EAAT), organic cations, choline, adenine, nucleoside, etc. (Beduneau et al.
2004). Among all the transporters, GLUT and choline transporters have exhibited

greater potential as targets to cross the BBB. The GLUT1 transporter facilitates the transport from the blood to the brain not only of the D-glucose but also of other molecules with a similar structure such as galactose, mannose, 2-deoxy glucose, and glucose analogues (Pardridge transport glucose (1420 nmol/min/g tissue) compared to other transporters like MCT1 (91 nmol/min/g tissue) and LAT1 (28 nmol/min/g tissue) (Tsuji choline transport molecules such as choline (precursor for the neurot ransmitter acetylcholine) but also with other molecules like carnitine and thiamine and with positively charged quaternary ammonium groups (Lockman and Allen major advantage of this transporter is the fact that there is no saturation under physiological concentrations, thus other components may be transported without altering choline transport to the CNS (Allen and Smith
Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis
On the contrary, large molecules required for normal brain function are transported by specic receptors (which are highly expressed) localized on the endothelial cells of the BBB (Gabathuler 2010). The binding of the ligand to specic receptors results in the internalization of the complex (receptor-ligand) within an endocytotic vesicle (Beduneau et al. to deliver compounds across the BBB are the insulin receptor, folate receptor, transferrin receptor, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor (Gabathuler
The LDL receptor binds lipoprotein particles carrying ApoE and ApoB100 and
targeting this receptor is a very promising strategy for the endocytosis of nanoparticles across the BBB (Lalatsa et al. lipoprotein receptor that interacts with a large variety of ligands such as ApoE, tissue plasminogen activator, amyloid precursor protein (APP), lactoferrin, and is expressed in many tissues as well as the CNS (Rebeck et al. 1993). LRP is expressed in the cerebellum, in neuronal cells, and in astrocytes. LRP is over-expressed in malignant astrocytomas, especially glioblastomas (Yamamoto et al. meric nanoparticles overcoated with polysorbate 80 have been shown to adsorb ApoE and ApoB from the blood and it is postulated that they are taken up via the LDL receptor. Rather than coating particles with surfactants and relying on sponta­neous adsorption of ApoE from the plasma, covalent attachment of ApoE to the particles has been carried out and the result was particles that were able to be taken up into the brain parenchyma without any effect on the tight junctions (Zensi et al.
2009). Lactoferrin is normally present in very low physiological levels and so it is
unlikely to compete with a vector-conjugate making it a good target as it is transcytosed across the brain capillary endothelial cells and is not intracellularly degraded. Lactoferrin conjugated via a PEG spacer to polyamidoamine dendrimers was used to deliver a neurotrophic factor gene to a rotenone-induced rat model of Parkinsons disease with some neuropr otective effects observed (Huang et al.

Angiopep-2 has been studied for gene delivery when covalently linked to a PEG spacer linked to a PAMAM dendrimer (Ke et al. 2009). An increased loading of Angiopep-2 was required to the majority of the dose detected in the kidneys at 2 hours post-administration. The advantages of the lipoprotein receptor system over other receptor systems, such as the hexose receptor systems, include more efcient cellular delivery and the poten­tial for transcytosis of ligands across tight endothelia, including the blood-brain barrier. Several examples o Table 14.4.
Adsorptive-Mediated Endocytosis
With the AME system, the transport across the BBB takes place through a less specic mechanism based on elect rostatic interactions between the negatively charged mem brane of the BBB and a positively charged ligand (Beduneau et al.
2007). Thus, cationic proteins because of their basic isoelectric point are positively
charged at physiological blood pH which makes them able to bind to the luminal plasma membrane triggering adsorptive endocytosis (Gabathuler 2010). It has been reported that the transport of cationic albumins or immunoglobulins into the CNS is signicantly enhanced compared to native proteins (Vorbrodt et al. 1996; Triguero et al. 1989). Positively charged ligands can be conjugated to nanomedicines to enhance their passage across the BBB. As such, cell-penetrating peptides have become a very effective class of transporters composed of short cationic sequences with a remarkable capacity for membrane trans location with minimal toxicity (Fonseca et al. 2009). To date, TAT (RKKRRQRRR), poly-arginine (RRRRRRRRR), penetratin (RQIKIWFQNRR MKWKK), and transportan (GWTLNSAGYLLGKINLKALAALAKKIL) are some of the most used cell­penetrating peptides that have successfully delivered small molecule therapeutics, proteins, nucleic acids, contrast agents, etc. (Fonseca et al. summarizes several examples of CNS active targeting nanomedicines through AME systems.

14.5.3 Actively Targeted Nanomedicines for Rheumatoid
Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease, characterized by inammation and synovial hyperplasia that mainly affects the joints (Smolen et al. 2018). RA attacks around 5 out of 1,000 people and early diagnosis and treatment can prevent or delay joint damage by up to 90% (Sarzi-Puttini et al. 2019).
The conventional treatment of this disease is based on antirheumatic drugs in the
rst instance, which need a high and constant dosage due to their low bioavailability and short half-life (Wang et al. selectively for RA can reduce the risk of affecting adjacent tissues, reducing side effects.

Folate Receptor on M1 Macrophages
Rheumatoid arthritis produces synovial inammation, which is caused by the inammatory cytokines secreted by M1-type macrophages (Smolen et al. 2018). The switching of M1 to the anti-inammatory M2 type is crucial. Silver nanoparticles with folic acid were developed to target the folate receptor localized on M1 macrophages, whose function is to produce apoptosis of M1 macrophages and help towards the polarization of M2-type macrophages eliminating reactive oxygen species (ROS) (Yang et al.
MMP2 Receptor
Abnormal high cell-free DNA (cfDNA) activates toll-like receptors 9 (TLR9), which produce inammatory cytokines that aggravate rheumatoid arthritis. Methotrexate was encapsulated within poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)-b-poly(2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) cationic nanoparticles using a peptide linkage (PVGLIG) and PEG to target MMP2 receptors on macrophages. The nanoparticles exhibited a prolonged bloodstream circulation and an enhanced accumulation in the joint triggering cfDNA scavenging and delivery of the drug into the activated macrophages (Liu et al. 2022).
pH-Dependent
Similar to tumours, a low pH (around 6) is one of the main characteristics of rheumatic joints due to an imbalance in metabolic activity, resulting in anaerobic glycolysis that produces lactate, in inamed tissues (Smolen et al. 2018). The development of pH-dependent formulations with sensitivity to acid pH helps in the selectivity of drug transport. Modied micelles (mPEG-PDEA-PCL, methoxy­poly(ethylene glycol) 2000-poly(2-(N,N-diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate)­polycaprolactone) were developed to be pH-responsive. PDEA transforms to its protonated form (PDEAH release selectively (Li et al. 2017). Dexamethasone- N-(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide (HPMA) copolymers were cleavable under an acidic pH due to the hydrazone bond linking dexamethasone to HPMA. This allowed a superior and prolonged anti-inammatory effect with selective accumulation compared with the free drug (Wang et al.

nanoparticles are generated from a large scale to a nanoparticle level, these processes are typically referred to as top-down(Serrano et al. 2015).
Bottom-up Manufacturing of Nanomedicines
This method produces nanocrystalline, nano amorphous, or nano polymeric suspen­sions. Combining an organic solvent with a nonsolvent creates dissolved and precipitated molecules to initiate the procedure. In this case, nanoparticles can be produced using condensation techniques (formati on of particles by nucleation and crystal growth). The drug and biocompatible and biodegradable polymers such as polylactides, polyglycolide, and poly (lactide-co-glycolides) dissolve in a water­miscible organic solvent while surfactants such as the Tweens, Spans, or polyvinyl alcohol are dissolved in water (Fig.
14.7). The two solutions are combined to form a
precipitate through the diffusion of an organic solvent in water. The organic solvent is then removed by extraction or evaporation (Cornier et al.
2017). Using the bottom-
up met hod, it is frequently difcult to control the growth of particles and crystals. In addition, scaling up the process is complicated (Shah et al.
2016).
Top-Down Manufacturing of Nanomedicines
Depending on the application, the top-down process is commonly either a bead mill or a high-pressure homogenizer. The top-down method is the most prevalent tech­nique for producing nanocrystalline suspensions. The particle size can be controlled by selecting a suitable stabilizer and employing the most efcient operating settings for the process (Peltonen and Hirvonen
2010). The top-down strategy entails drug
distribution throughout the vehicle. The third step is particle size reduction. The
