Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3β Inhibitor Delivered by Chitosan Nanocapsules Promotes Safe, Fast, and Efficient Activation of Wnt Signaling In Vivo

Abstract: The Wnt-β-catenin signaling is an evolutionarily conserved pathway with a prominent role in different biological processes such as stem cell renewal, cell proliferation, and differentiation. Wnt signaling dysfunctions have been associated with developmental and neurological diseases as well as formation and progression of tumors. Nanomedicine may provide safe and efficient drug delivery systems offering breakthrough innovation in targeting Wnt signaling. The natural polymer chitosan represents an excellent can… Show more

“…Many efforts have been made to identify new anticancer candidates. Biopolymers (CS) as carrier systems for pharmaceuticals and mucoadhesive formulations have been employed to promote sustainability in the pharmaceutical area 56 and because of their low toxicity, biodegradability, and colloidal stability in aqueous solutions 57 , 58 .…”

“…They also studied the characteristics of the intracellular delivery with Nile red-loaded NPs. Their methodology resulted in a more efficient manner of activating Wnt pathway than free alsterpaullone at the same concentration (Ambrosone et al, 2020). Similarly, Montero et al developed chitosan-BSA NPs and studied their potential as vehicles with different combinations, demonstrating their potential for drug delivery (Montero et al, 2019).…”
