reduced toxicity (Lv et al. 2011), although it is not clear if the particles were actually taken up orally. Paclitaxel has also been delivered in N-(2-phenoxyacetamide)-6-O­glycolchitosan nanoparticles and found to evade the P-glycoprotein efux pump when delivered as this polymeric nanoparticle formulation (Soundararajan et al.
2016).
7.4.3 Topical Ocular
The delivery of drugs to the ocular surface requires that drugs enjoy a long enough residence time to reduce the need for short-dose intervals. Transport of drugs through the cornea to the aqueous humour and into the conjunctiva and connective tissue of the eye may also be inuenced by the nature of the delivery system. Prednisolone transport to the aqueous humour, on topical application to the rabbit model, is signicantly enhanced with the use of GCPQ nanoparticles (Qu et al.
2006). GCPQ nanoparticles, we now know, deliver multiple hydrophobic drugs to
and across the ocular tissues on topical ocular administration, increasing ocular bioavailability by between vefold and 18-fold, as meas ured by the Cmax (Fig. 7.6) (Badr et al. 2021, 2022; Uchegbu et al. 2021). In rabbit studies, tacrolimus deposition in the cornea and conjunctiva is increased by 18-fold and vefold, respectively, when applied as GCPQ nanoparticles (Badr et al. tacrolimus and rapamycin were delivered to the choroid retina on topical ocular administration to the rabbit model using GCPQ nanoparticles, with rapamycin being

delivered in therapeutic quantities (Badr et al. 2021, 2022). The ability to topically deliver drugs to the back of the eye would represent a breakthrough if replicated in humans. A schematic representation of the hypothesised mechanism of ocular delivery when GCPQ drug-loaded particles are applied to the eye appears in Fig. 7.7.
The improved pharmacodynamic activity of polymer nanoparticle formulations has been demonstrated with chitosan–hyaluronic acid nanoparticles when applied topically to the eye and containing dorzolamide hydrochloride or timolol maleate as these formulat ions reduced intraocular pressure to a greater extent than the marketed

formulation of the drugs (Wadhwa et al. 2010). Additionally, dexamethasone loaded into cross-linked poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-poly(vinyl pyrrolidone)-co-poly (methacrylic acid) micelles to yield dexamethasone polymer nanoparticles showed better pharmacodynamic activity against uveitis when compared to dexamethasone solution and this was attributed to the mucoadhesion of the particles (Rae et al.
2010).
7.4.4 Brain Delivery
7.4.4.1 Intravenous
Delivering drugs to the brain is severely limited by the blood–brain barrier, an anatomical and physiological barrier composed of the neurovascular unit, efux membrane transporters and drug-degrading enzymes (Lalatsa et al. methods have been developed to overcome this barrier, and polymers have gured largely as transport vectors. The exploitation of transport pathways on brain endo­thelial cells has resulted in polymer nanoparticles being transcytosed across brain endothelial cells (Zensi et al. include the transporter specic to Apolipoprotein E (Zensi et al. 2009), which, when conjugated to cross-linked albumin nanoparticles, resulted in particle uptake across the brain endothelial cells. Exploitation of this transport of polymer particles across the blood–brain barrier for medicinal benet was realised when doxorubicin was delivered to the brain following the intravenous administration of doxorubicin poly (n-butyl)cyanoacrylate nanoparticles coated with polysorbate 80 (Wohlfart et al.
2011). Coated particles were superior to non-coated particles in delivering doxoru-
bicin to the brain, and this is thought to be due to the polysorbate 80-coated particles ability to recruit plasma apolipoprotein E to the particlessurface and use this ligand to access transport across the brain endothelial cells via the LRP1 receptor (Kreuter et al. 2002).
Other mechanisms by which polymer particle delivery across the blood–brain barrier may be achieved include the conjugation of F3 peptide (CKDEPQRRSAR LAKPAPPKPEPKPKKAPAKK) to the surface of poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly (lactic acid) nanoparticles (Hu et al. 2013). The F3 peptide targets nucleolin, a transport protein expressed on the surface of glioma cells and the tumour neovasculature brain endothelial cells. When these F3-decorated nanoparticles loaded with paclitaxel are administered in tandem with a cell-penetrating peptide (tLyp-1CGNKRTR) which targets neuroligin-1, a transmembrane protein over expressed on tumour vasculature, there is improved survival in animals bearing intracranial C6 glioma cells (Hu et al. 2013).
The delivery of macromolecules to the brain has been achieved using receptor­mediated uptake technology, as conjugating the rabies virus glycoprotein (RVG29) to the surface of a Pluronic-chitosan-based nanocarrier resulted in the delivery of the

protein beta-galactosidase to the brain after intravenous administration (Kim et al.
2013).
Although the uptake of polymer nanoparticles by brain endothelial cells is an attractive concept, the delivery of drugs to the brain may also be accompanied by no real particle transport across the blood–brain barrier. In the case of GCPQ particles loaded with leucine palmitate, leucine
5
-enkephalin (LENK) or a LENK lipidic prodrug tyrosine1-
5
-enkephalin (TPLENK), the particles are not taken up by the blood–brain barrier (Lalatsa et al. 2012b; Moger et al. 2012). Despite this lack of particle brain uptake, there is sufcient peptide drug delivery to the brain to elicit an anti-nociceptive response on intravenous administration of GCPQ nanoparticle­encapsulated LENK or TPLENK, whereas intravenous administration of LENK does not elicit an anti-nociceptive response. The positively charged GCPQ particles appear to adhere to the luminal side of the brain endothelial cells (Moger et al.
2012),
enabling the particle cargo to achieve close contact with the blood–brain barrier and the GCPQ particles also prevent peptide degradation within the plasma (Lalatsa et al.
2012b); both mechanisms resulting in the increased delivery of the peptide across the
blood–brain barrier. It is hypothesised that the lipidic prodrugTPLENK is also able to diff use more easily across the barrier when compared to the peptide alone, due to a reduced level of hydrogen bonding of TPLENK with the water in the blood.
7.4.4.2 Nose to Brain
There are no approved particulate formulations indicated for central nervous system conditions at the present time. All the nanoparticle formulations described above are at the experimental stage and many of them are at the pre-clinical experimental stage. The clinical testing of intravenous polymer particles for brain diseases is certainly not widespread or a growing phenomenon.
The non-invasive nose-to-brain delivery of solution formulations in humans has been well documented (Chapman et al. 2013). Insulin and oxytocin solutions have both been administered via the nose-to-brain route and evidence of target engage­ment observed in humans. There are many instances of pre-clinical studies of the nose-to-brain route, involving particulates, e.g. olanzapine-PLGA nanoparticles (Seju et al. 2011), and solution formulations (Wang et al. 2019). These include our own studies, with particulates encapsulating peptides (Godfrey et al. 2017), small hydrophobic molecules (Uchegbu et al. 2014), siRNA (Alamoudi et al. 2022) and genes (Petkova et al. 2022; Fatani et al. 2023).
There are no neuropeptides approved for clinical use. Envelta
®
is a pre-clinical stage pain therapeutic comprising GCPQ (also known as the Molecular Envelope TechnologyMET) nanoparticles encapsulating LENK (Godfrey et al. 2017). This therapeutic candidate is a nano-in-micro powder designed to be administered for pain relief via the nose-to-brain route using a delivery device. The nasal powder comprises agglomerated nanoparticles, into a 20 μm microparticle, which then redisperses into nanoparticles and is expected to generate drug-lled nanoparticles

A recent signicant advance has involved the delivery of plasmids to the brain via the nasal route with the nucleic acids traversing the olfactory bulb to access the cerebrum (Simao Carlos et al.
2017; Alamoudi et al. 2022; Petkova et al. 2022;
Fatani et al. 2023). Glycol chitosan polyplexes of the luciferase reporter gene, when delivered via the nose-to-brain route, resulted in protein expression predominantly in the cerebral cortex (Petkova et al.
2022; Fatani et al. 2023). Protein expression
followed the trend: olfactory bulb ¼ cerebral cortex > striatum > mid-brain ¼ cere­bellum (Fig.
7.8) (Fatani et al. 2023).
Gene silencing has also been reported in the olfactory bulb and brain tissue following the nose-to-brain delivery of siRNA-ITCH delivered as PEG-amine polyplexes (Alamoudi et al. 2022). These studies open the eld for the development of therapeutic gene therapies to treat intractable neurological conditions such as neurodegenerative conditions.
7.4.5 Nasal
7.4.5.1 Systemic Nasal Delivery
The nasal route of administration is favoured because of the highly vascularised nature of the nasal mucosa and the possibility of delivering drug to the brain via the neuronal routes. As such, nasal formulations of insulin (Dyer et al. 2002) and
7 Polymeric Nanoparticles 157
https://t.me/med1917
leuprolide (Shahnaz et al. 2012) in chitosan nano particles have been used as a non-parenteral route for the systemic delivery of such peptides.
7.4.5.2 Delivering to the Nasal Passages
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a huge effort expended, aimed at nding mul tiple ways to mitigate transmission of the virus. The vaccination regimes that were eventually approved did not halt transmission, even though they did reduce disease severity (Schaefer et al. reduce viral replication in cells in vitro, reducing viral titres by 3 log and reducing viral titres in a three-dimensional culture of the human airway epithelium (Pyrc et al.
2021). In in vivo studies, radiolabelled GCPQ was resident in the nares for up to 24 h
and in in vivo challenge studies with the COVID-19 virus, there was a trend towards reducing viral load in the brain on pre-treatment with GCPQ nanoparticle disper­sions (Pyrc et al. preventing viral proximity to the ACE-2 receptor and thus inhibiting viral entry into the nasal epithelial cells. These nanoparticles may serve as a nasal spray prophylactic to be used against seasonal coronaviruses or the deadly coronaviruses, similar to those responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic.

7.4.6 Subcutaneous
Subcutaneous delivery routes have been used for depot preparations of microparticle formulations and coarse emulsions. We have solved the problem of needing to administer a high dose of a cancer drug candidate with poor oral bioavailability by formulating a subcutaneous dosage form comprising a GCPQ-encapsulated drug candidateCUDC 101, in which the nanoparticles are coated with hyaluronidase to enable a high volume of the nanoparticle dispersion to be delivered via the subcu­taneous route (Soundararajan et al. 2020). These hyaluronidase-coated GCPQ CUDC 101 nanoparticles prolonged survival by over 200% when compared with the administration of CUDC 101 with hyaluronidase alone (from 15 to 43 days) (Soundararajan et al. 2020). Such a formulation could be administered in the home by the patient and removes the need for the hospital administration of an intravenous formulation of the drug.
An interesting new glucose-sensitive subcutaneous formulation of insulin has also been described in which an acid-degradable acetalated-dextran conjugate deliv­ered insulin rapidly when an acyclic acetal group was conjugated to the dextran and delivered insulin in a more delayed fashion when a cyclic acetal group was conju­gated to the dextran (Volpatti et al. polymeric systems would provide insulin release kinetics approximating the phys­iological situation.

7.5 Conclusion
Polymer nanoparticles are prepared from amphiphilic polymers, water-insoluble polymers and even from hydrophilic polymers. They have been demonstrated to improve the bioavailability of low molecular weight and biologic (e.g. genes) drugs via the oral, intravenous, intranasal and topical ocular routes. They act by protecting the drug from degradation, reducing drug clearance and even transporting drugs across biological barriers while still encapsulated in the nanoparticles. Polymeric nanoparticles also inhibit viral replication in vitro.
Problems
Question 1 Describe how nanoparticles may be formed from polymers in aqueous
media.
Answer 1 Amphip hilic polymers when dispersed in water or other aqueous medium spontaneously self-assemble to form nanoparticles. This self-assembly may be promoted by probe sonication, high-pressure homogenisation or microuidisation for example. This is the method used to make polymers from the chitosan amphiphile: N-monomethyl, NN-dimethyl, N-trimethyl, N-acetyl, N-palmitoyl, 6-O-glycol chitosan (GCPQ). Hydrophobic polymers such as poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) may be precipitated from an organic solvent emulsi­ed into aqueous media, with the formed nanoparticles stabilised by surfactants present in the aqueous media, e.g. PLGA nanoparticles formed in the presence of poly(oxyethylene) 20 sorbitan monooleate. Hydrophilic polymers such as chitosan may be prepared by using ionic gelation in which a counter anion such as tripolyphosphate is used to form nanogels with the positively charged chitosan.
Question 2 Give examples of how polymer nanoparticles have been used to provide a therapeutic benet either in clinical or pre-clinical settings.
Answer 2 Most polymer nanoparticles have demonstrated their benets in cancer chemotherapy. Docetaxel poly(DL-lactic acid)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) nanoparticles have been evalua ted in prostate cancer patients and found to extend plasma half-life of the drug; an observation which could lead to better tumour targeting with the drug. Furthermore, N-monomethyl, NN-dimethyl, N-tri methyl, N-acetyl, N-palmitoyl, 6-O-glycol chitosan (GCPQ) nanoparticles have been dem­onstrated to facilitate drug delivery to the choroid retina.
