Nanodiamond-mediated drug delivery and imaging: challenges and opportunities

V Vaijayanthimala; Dong Keun Lee; Sue V Kim; Albert Yen; Nathaniel Tsai; Dean Ho; Huan-Cheng Chang; Olga Shenderova

Introduction: The field of nanoparticle-based therapeutic systems is rapidly expanding encompassing a wide variety of practices ranging from detection to diagnosis to treatment. Recently a great potential of nanodiamond (ND) particles as a multimodal imaging/therapy platform has been demonstrated. Areas covered: This review describes a unique set of properties of ND particles attractive for drug delivery and imaging applications and highlights the most recent ND-based multimodal imaging/therapy approaches and related biocompatibility studies. The spectrum of major advancements includes marked improvements in tumor treatment efficacy and safety based on integration of ND with doxorubicin (DOX). Recent progress of ND-mediated drug delivery in orthopedic, dental and ophthalmic applications is also discussed. Expert opinion: ND particles possess a unique set of properties attractive for drug delivery applications, including exceptional biocompatibility, large carrier capacity and versatile surface chemistry properties, which enhance drug binding and provide sustainable drug release. Other unique attributes of NDs embrace bright stable fluorescence based on crystallographic defects. A roadmap toward a clinical translation comprises identification of ND-therapeutic compounds that display marked improvements over clinical standards with respects to efficacy, safety and cost.

Root canal therapy (RCT) represents a standard of treatment that addresses infected pulp tissue in teeth and protects against future infection. RCT involves removing dental pulp comprising blood vessels and nerve tissue, decontaminating residually infected tissue through biomechanical instrumentation, and root canal obturation using a filler material to replace the space that was previously composed of dental pulp. Gutta percha (GP) is typically used as the filler material, as it is malleable, inert, and biocompatible. While filling the root canal space with GP is the standard of care for endodontic therapies, it has exhibited limitations including leakage, root canal reinfection, and poor mechanical properties. To address these challenges, clinicians have explored the use of alternative root filling materials other than GP. Among the classes of materials that are being explored as novel endodontic therapy platforms, nanodiamonds (NDs) may offer unique advantages due to their favorable properties, particularly for dental applications. These include versatile faceted surface chemistry, biocompatibility, and their role in improving mechanical properties, among others. This study developed a ND-embedded GP (NDGP) that was functionalized with amoxicillin, a broad-spectrum antibiotic commonly used for endodontic infection. Comprehensive materials characterization confirmed improved mechanical properties of NDGP over unmodified GP. In addition, digital radiography and microcomputed tomography imaging demonstrated that obturation of root canals with NDGP could be achieved using clinically relevant techniques. Furthermore, bacterial growth inhibition assays confirmed drug functionality of NDGP functionalized with amoxicillin. This study demonstrates a promising path toward NDGP implementation in future endodontic therapy for improved treatment outcomes.
