    Abstract Nanocarrier-based cytoplasmic protein delivery offers opportunities to develop protein therapeutics; however, many delivery systems are positively charged, causing severe toxic effects. For enhanced therapeutics, it is also of great importance to design nanocarriers with intrinsic bioactivity that can be integrated with protein drugs due to the limited bioactivity of proteins alone for disease treatment. We report here a protein delivery system based on anionic phosphite-terminated phosphorus dendrimers with intrinsic anti-inflammatory activity. A phosphorus dendrimer termed AK-137 with optimized anti-inflammatory activity was selected to complex proteins through various physical interactions. Model proteins such as bovine serum albumin, ribonuclease A, ovalbumin, and fibronectin (FN) can be transfected into cells to exert their respective functions, including cancer cell apoptosis, dendritic cell maturation, or macrophage immunomodulation. Particularly, the constructed AK-137@FN nanocomplexes display powerful therapeutic effects in acute lung injury and acute gout arthritis models by integrating the anti-inflammatory activity of both the carrier and protein. The developed anionic phosphite-terminated phosphorus dendrimers may be employed as a universal carrier for protein delivery and particularly utilized to deliver proteins and fight different inflammatory diseases with enhanced therapeutic efficacy.

    Abstract Phosphorus dendrimers are used for many applications in different domains including nanomedicine as cargo of drugs or as species active per se but also in a variety of other fields ranging from nanoscience to catalysis. Their properties depend on the nature of their internal structure and mainly of the diversity and versatility of the functional groups located on their outer shell. Therefore, there is a need to diversify their structure in order to use them for new applications and to propose alternative synthetic pathways to be built easily, at each step and in high yield a family of original stable phosphorus dendrimers of different generations. Such a goal is illustrated in this report with the original synthesis of 14 new phosphorus dendrimers of generation 0 to 2 and the possibility to modify at will their internal structure and the nature of their functional end groups.

    Abstract Five S-alkyl di-tert-butylphosphorylated carbodithioates, Z–C(S)SR, were studied as chain transfer agents (CTAs) in the RAFT polymerization of vinyl monomers. These phosphorus-containing CTAs involve new Pᴵᴵᴵ and Pⱽ moieties in the Z group (phosphine-borane or free phosphine). Two of them, with an S-bonded 1-methoxycarbonylethyl group as leaving group, have not previously been described. The CTAs with a Pⱽ Z group provide good control over the polymerization of styrene (St) and n-butyl acrylate (nBA). Molar masses are close to theoretical values, and dispersities are consistently low during polymerization. The monitoring of polymerization by ³¹P NMR spectroscopy supports the controlled character and the integrity of the polymer chain ends. Conversely, they inhibit the polymerization of the less-activated monomer vinyl acetate (VAc). The reactivity of the CTAs with a Pᴵᴵᴵ Z group mainly depends on the reaction medium, and their performance for St, nBA, and VAc was surprising and unexpected. Theoretical calculations were carried out to rationalize their behavior. Finally, an innovative strategy was developed to obtain well-controlled polymers with free phosphine ω-chain ends.

    Abstract Among the numerous nanomedicine formulations, dendrimers have emerged as original, efficient, carefully assembled, hyperbranched, polymeric nanoparticles based on synthetic monomers. Dendrimers are used either as nanocarriers of drugs or as drugs themselves. When used as drug carriers, dendrimers are considered ‘best-in-class agents’, modifying and enhancing the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the active entities encapsulated or conjugated with the dendrimers. When used as drugs themselves, dendrimers represent a novel category of “first-in-class” drugs. The purpose of this original review is to analyse the different strategies involved in the development, application, and impact of dendrimers as drugs. We examine a selection of nanoparticles that use multifunctional elements and demonstrate clinical multifunctionality, and we extend these principles to applications in dendrimer nanomedicine design. Finally, for practical consideration, the concepts of vertical and diagonal translation are introduced as potential strategies to facilitate dendrimer development.

    Abstract The development of nonviral dendritic polymers with a simple molecular backbone and great gene delivery efficiency to effectively tackle cancer remains a great challenge. Phosphorus dendrimers or dendrons are promising vectors due to their structural uniformity, rigid molecular backbones, and tunable surface functionalities. Here, we report the development of a new low-generation unsymmetrical cationic phosphorus dendrimer bearing 5 pyrrolidinium groups and one amino group as a nonviral gene delivery vector. The created

    Abstract There are several routes of administration to the brain, including intraparenchymal, intraventricular, and subarachnoid injections. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) impedes the permeation and access of most drugs to the central nervous system (CNS), and consequently, many neurological diseases remain undertreated. For past decades, to circumvent this effect, several nanocarriers have been developed to deliver drugs to the brain. Importantly, intranasal (IN) administration can allow direct delivery of drugs into the brain through the anatomical connection between the nasal cavity and brain without crossing the BBB. In this regard, dendrimers may possess great potential to deliver drugs to the brain by IN administration, bypassing the BBB and reducing systemic exposure and side effects, to treat diseases of the CNS. In this original concise review, we highlighted the few examples advocated regarding the use of dendrimers to deliver CNS drugs directly via IN. This review highlighed the few examples of the association of dendrimer encapsulating drugs (e.g., small compounds: haloperidol and paeonol; macromolecular compounds: dextran, insulin and calcitonin; and siRNA) using IN administration. Good efficiencies were observed. In addition, we will present the in vivo effects of PAMAM dendrimers after IN administration, globally, showing no general toxicity.

    Abstract The novel human coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) has caused a pandemic. There are currently several marketed vaccines and many in clinical trials targeting SARS-CoV-2. Another strategy is to repurpose approved drugs to decrease the burden of the COVID-19 (official name for the coronavirus disease) pandemic. as the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved antiviral drugs and anti-inflammatory drugs to arrest the cytokine storm, inducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Another view to solve these unprecedented challenges is to analyze the diverse nanotechnological approaches which are able to improve the COVID-19 pandemic. In this original minireview, as promising candidates we analyze the opportunity to develop biocompatible dendrimers as drugs themselves or as nanocarriers against COVID-19 disease. From the standpoint of COVID-19, we suggest developing dendrimers as shields against COVID-19 infection based on their capacity to be incorporated in several environments outside the patients and as important means to stop transmission of SARS-CoV-2.

    Abstract Research to develop active dendrimers by themselves or as nanocarriers represents a promising approach to discover new biologically active entities that can be used to tackle unmet medical needs including difficult diseases. These developments are possible due to the exceptional physicochemical properties of dendrimers, including their biocompatibility, as well as their therapeutic activity as nanocarriers and drugs themselves. Despite a large number of academic studies, very few dendrimers have crossed the 'valley of death' between. Only a few number of pharmaceutical companies have succeeded in this way. In fact, only Starpharma (Australia) and Orpheris, Inc. (USA), an Ashvattha Therapeutics subsidiary, can fill all the clinic requirements to have in the market dendrimers based drugs/nancocarriers. After evaluating the main physicochemical properties related to the respective biological activity of dendrimers classified as first-in-class or best-in-class in nanomedicine, this original review analyzes the advantages and disavantages of these two strategies as well the concerns to step in clinical phases. Various solutions are proposed to advance the use of dendrimers in human health.
