The rise in antibiotic resistance rate challenges the effective treatment of various bacterial infections. One them is gastric infection caused by Helicobacter pylori, a Gram-negative bacterium responsible for several disorders, as peptic ulcer, and close to 90 % all cancer cases. Available treatments, combining at least 3 antibiotics, fail up 40 patients, prompting need newer therapies. Bioengineered strategies, namely using biomaterials form micro/nanoparticles (MP/NP) have been explored management either (i) "H. pylori binders", bind H. stomach remove it gastrointestinal tract; (ii) contact killing agents, destroy situ; or (iii) drug delivery systems, transport release antimicrobial compounds site. These MP/NP were prepared different biomaterials, such natural polymers (chitosan alone combined with heparin, alginate gelatin), lipids (phospholipids, cholesterol), metals (gold, silver) inorganic (zinc oxide). selected due their intrinsic properties, ability produce pH responsive systems encapsulate lipophilic compounds. Antimicrobial peptides (MSI-78 MSI-78A), plants extracts (berberine, aloe vera, curcumin), bacteria-derived (azurin, rhamnolipids) polyunsaturated fatty acids (linoleic acid, docosahexaenoic acid), encapsulated immobilized onto MP/NP, studied alternative antibiotics against pylori. Moreover, targeting also developed bioconjugation specific adhesin lectin-binding glycans.

Due to their biocompatibility, nontoxicity, and surface conjugation properties, nanomaterials are effective nanocarriers capable of encapsulating chemotherapeutic drugs facilitating targeted delivery across the blood–brain barrier (BBB). Although research on nanoparticles for brain cancer treatment is still in its early stages, these systems hold great potential revolutionize drug delivery. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) one most common lethal tumors, heterogeneous aggressive nature complicates current treatments, which primarily rely surgery. One significant obstacles poor penetration BBB. Moreover, GBM often referred as a “cold” tumor, characterized by an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) minimal immune cell infiltration, limits effectiveness immunotherapies. Therefore, developing novel, more treatments critical improving survival rate patients. Current strategies enhancing outcomes focus controlled, agents cells BBB using nanoparticles. These therapies must be designed engage specialized transport systems, allowing efficient penetration, improved therapeutic efficacy, reduced systemic toxicity degradation. Lipid inorganic can enhance while minimizing side effects. formulations may include epitopes—small antigen fragments that bind directly free antibodies, B receptors, or T receptors—that interact with enable crossing, thereby boosting efficacy.

Drug delivery via the oral route has always been challenging for poorly soluble drugs. Acid-induced hydrolysis, enzymatic degradation, and poor mucosal absorbency remain primary hiccups effective of medications. With advent nanotechnology, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have emerged as a promising carrier that can circumvent gastrointestinal tract (GIT) barriers hindering solubility bioavailability such These NLCs efficiently transport drug moieties across intestinal membranes shielding medications from pH degradation. Because they are composed lipidic materials, be easily absorbed or taken up by various pathways transcellular absorption, paracellular transport, M-cell uptake. Such mechanisms not only improve absorption drugs but also augment residence time may bypass first-pass metabolism.
