Drug delivery systems rely heavily on nanoparticles because they provide a targeted and monitored release of pharmaceuticals that maximize therapeutic efficacy and minimize side effects. To maximize drug internalization, this review focuses on comprehending the interactions between biological systems and nanoparticles. The way that nanoparticles behave during cellular uptake, distribution, and retention in the body is determined by their shape. Different forms, such as mesoporous silica nanoparticles, micelles, and nanorods, each have special properties that influence how well drugs are delivered to cells and internalized. To achieve the desired particle morphology, shape-controlled nanoparticle synthesis strategies take into account variables like pH, temperatures, and reaction time. Top-down techniques entail dissolving bulk materials to produce nanoparticles, whereas bottom-up techniques enable nanostructures to self-assemble. Comprehending the interactions at the bio-nano interface is essential to surmounting biological barriers and enhancing the therapeutic efficacy of nanotechnology in drug delivery systems. In general, drug internalization and distribution are greatly influenced by the shape of nanoparticles, which presents an opportunity for tailored and efficient treatment plans in a range of medical applications.
The coagulation and immune system, both essential physiological systems in the human body, are intricately interconnected and play a critical role in determining the overall health of patients. These systems collaborate via various shared regulatory pathways, such as the Tissue Factor (TF) Pathway. Immunological cells that express TF and generate pro-inflammatory cytokines have the ability to affect coagulation. Conversely, coagulation factors and processes have a reciprocal effect on immunological responses by stimulating immune cells and regulating their functions. These interconnected pathways play a role in both preserving well-being and contributing to a range of pathological disorders. The close relationship between blood clotting and inflammation in the development of vascular disease has become a central focus of clinical study. This research specifically examines the crucial elements of this interaction within the contexts of cardiovascular disease and acute coronary syndrome. Tissue factor, the primary trigger of the extrinsic coagulation pathway, has a crucial function by inducing a proinflammatory reaction through the activation of coagulation factors. This, in turn, initiates coagulation and subsequent cellular signalling pathways. Protease-activated receptors establish the molecular connection between coagulation and inflammation by interacting with activated clotting factors II, X, and VII. Thrombosis, a condition characterised by the formation of blood clots, is the most dreaded consequence of cardiovascular disorders and a leading cause of death globally. Consequently, it poses a significant challenge to healthcare systems. Antithrombotic treatments efficiently target platelets and the coagulation cascade, but they come with the inherent danger of causing bleeding. Furthermore, antithrombotics are unable to fully eliminate thrombotic events, highlighting a treatment deficiency caused by a third mechanism that has not yet been sufficiently addressed, namely inflammation. Understanding these connections may aid in the development of novel approaches to mitigate the harmful mutual exacerbation of inflammation and coagulation. Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the intricate interaction among these systems is crucial for the management of diseases and the creation of efficacious remedies. Through the examination of these prevalent regulatory systems, we can discover novel therapeutic approaches that specifically target these complex illnesses. This paper provides a thorough examination of the reciprocal relationship between the coagulation and immune systems, emphasising its importance in maintaining health and understanding disease processes. This review examines the interplay between inflammation and thrombosis and its role in the development of thrombotic disorders.
