Establishment of nanoparticle screening technique: A pivotal role of sodium carboxymethylcellulose in enhancing oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble aceclofenac. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 277:134246. [PMID: 39098461 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134246] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 07/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
A novel nanoparticle screening technique was established to mostly enhance the aqueous solubility and oral bioavailability of aceclofenac using nanoparticle systems. Among the polymers investigated, sodium carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC) showed the greatest increase in drug solubility. Utilizing spray-drying technique, the solvent-evaporated solid dispersion (SESD), surface-attached solid dispersion (SASD), and solvent-wetted solid dispersion (SWSD) were prepared using aceclofenac and Na-CMC at a weight ratio of 1:1 in 50 % ethanol, distilled water, and ethanol, respectively. Using Na-CMC as a solid carrier, an aceclofenac-loaded liquid self-emulsifying drug delivery system was spray-dried and fluid-bed granulated together with microcrystalline cellulose, producing a solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) and solid self-nanoemulsifying granule system (SNEGS), respectively. Their physicochemical properties and preclinical assessments in rats were performed. All nanoparticles exhibited very different properties, including morphology, crystallinity, and size. As a result, they significantly enhanced the solubility, dissolution, and oral bioavailability in the following order: SNEDDS ≥ SNEGS > SESD ≥ SASD ≥ SWSD. Based on our screening technique, the SNEDDS was selected as the optimal nanoparticle with the highest bioavailability of aceclofenac. Thus, our nanoparticle screening technique should be an excellent guideline for solubilization research to improve the solubility and bioavailability of many poorly water-soluble bioactive materials.

Comparison of two self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems using different solidification techniques for enhanced solubility and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble celecoxib. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2024; 241:114044. [PMID: 38964274 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2024.114044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
In this study, we aimed to develop a solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (S-SNEDDS) and a solid self-nanoemulsifying granule system (S-SNEGS) to enhance the solubility and oral bioavailability of celecoxib. This process involved the preparation of a liquid SNEDDS (L-SNEDDS) and its subsequent solidification into a S-SNEDDS and a S-SNEGS. The L-SNEDDS consisted of celecoxib (drug), Captex® 355 (Captex; oil), Tween® 80 (Tween 80; surfactant) and D-α-Tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS; cosurfactant) in a weight ratio of 3.5:25:60:15 to produce the smallest nanoemulsion droplet size. The S-SNEDDS and S-SNEGS were prepared with L-SNEDDS/Ca-silicate/Avicel PH 101 in a weight ratio of 103.5:50:0 using a spray dryer and 103.5:50:100 using a fluid bed granulator, respectively. We compared the two novel developed systems and celecoxib powder based on their solubility, dissolution rate, physicochemical properties, flow properties and oral bioavailability in rats. S-SNEGS showed a significant improvement in solubility and dissolution rate compared to S-SNEDDS and celecoxib powder. Both systems had been converted from crystalline drug to amorphous form. Furthermore, S-SNEGS exhibited a significantly reduced angle of repose, compressibility index and Hausner ratio than S-SNEDDS, suggesting that S-SNEGS was significantly superior in flow properties. Compared to S-SNEDDS and celecoxib powder, S-SNEGS increased the oral bioavailability (AUC value) in rats by 1.3 and 4.5-fold, respectively. Therefore, S-SNEGS wolud be recommended as a solid self-nanoemulsifying system suitable for poorly water-soluble celecoxib.

Fabrication of polysaccharide-coated oleanolic acid-curcumin-coassembled nanoparticles (OA/Cur NPs): Enhancement of colloidal stability and water solubility. Food Chem 2024; 451:139482. [PMID: 38688096 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139482] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Natural terpenoid carriers, such as oleanolic acid (OA), can enhance the water solubility and stability of hydrophobic compounds such as curcumin (Cur). However, improving the colloidal stability of nanoparticle emulsions and resolving the redispersion problem of freeze-dried nanoparticle powders remain significant challenges. In this study, we fabricated coassembled oleanolic acid-curcumin nanoparticles (OA/Cur NPs) and applied a polysaccharide surface coating method to improve their colloidal stability and water solubility. The results showed that the optimal ratio of Cur/OA for preparing OA/Cur NPs was 4:10, resulting in a high encapsulation efficiency (EE) of Cur (75.2%). Additionally, TEM, contact angle tests, Turbiscan TOWER optical stability analysis of the polysaccharide-coated OA/Cur NP emulsions and redispersion tests of their lyophilized powders verified the advantages of carboxymethyl chitosan/β-cyclodextrin (CMC/β-CD) coating over other polysaccharides. This study indicated that polysaccharide coating is an effective method for enhancing the colloidal stability, water solubility, and redispersibility of OA/Cur NPs.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the formulation of stable solid dispersions to enhance the bioavailability of olaparib (OLA), a therapeutic agent for ovarian cancer and breast cancer characterized as a BCS class IV drug with low solubility and low permeability. Various polymers were screened based on solubility tests, and OLA-loaded solid dispersions were prepared using spray drying. The physicochemical properties of these dispersions were investigated via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). Subsequent dissolution tests, along with assessments of morphological and crystallinity changes in aqueous solutions, led to the selection of a hypromellose (HPMC)-based OLA solid dispersion as the optimal formulation. HPMC was effective at maintaining the supersaturation of OLA in aqueous solutions and exhibited a stable amorphous state without recrystallization. In an in vivo study, this HPMC-based OLA solid dispersion significantly enhanced bioavailability, increasing AUC0-24 by 4.19-fold and Cmax by more than 10.68-fold compared to OLA drug powder (crystalline OLA). Our results highlight the effectiveness of HPMC-based solid dispersions in enhancing the oral bioavailability of OLA and suggest that they could be an effective tool for the development of oral drug formulations.

Modification of microenvironmental pH of nanoparticles for enhanced solubility and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble celecoxib. Int J Pharm 2024; 659:124179.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop a novel pH-modified nanoparticle with improved solubility and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble celecoxib by modifying the microenvironmental pH. After assessing the impact of hydrophilic polymers, surfactants and alkaline pH modifiers on the drug solubility, copovidone, sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and meglumine were chosen. The optimal formulation of solvent-evaporated, surface-attached and pH-modified nanoparticles composed of celecoxib/copovidone/SLS/meglumine at weight ratios of 1:1:0.2:0, 1:0.375:1.125:0 and 1:1:1:0.2:0.02, respectively, were manufactured using spray drying technique. Their physicochemical characteristics, solubility, dissolution and pharmacokinetics in rats were evaluated compared to the celecoxib powder. The solvent-evaporated and pH-modified nanoparticles converted a crystalline to an amorphous drug, resulting in a spherical shape with a reduced particle size compared to celecoxib powder. However, the surface-attached nanoparticles with insignificant particle size exhibited the unchangeable crystalline drug. All of them gave significantly higher solubility, dissolution, and oral bioavailability than celecoxib powder. Among them, the pH-modified nanoparticles demonstrated the most significant improvement in solubility (approximately 1600-fold) and oral bioavailability (approximately 4-fold) compared to the drug powder owing to the alkaline microenvironment formation effect of meglumine and the conversion to the amorphous drug. Thus, the pH-modified nanoparticle system would be a promising strategy for improving the solubility and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble and weakly acidic celecoxib.

Abstract
Electrospun nanofibers have been used as wound dressings to protect skin from infection and promote wound healing. In this study, we developed polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/silicon dioxide (SD) composite nanofibers for the delivery of probiotic Saccharomyces cerevisiae (SC), which potentially aids in wound healing. PVP/SD composite nanofibers were optimized through electrospinning, and bead-free nanofibers with an average diameter of 624.7 ± 99.6 nm were fabricated. Next, SC, a wound-healing material, was loaded onto the PVP/SD composite nanofibers. SC was encapsulated in nanofibers, and nanofibers were prepared using SC, PVP, SD, water, and ethanol in a ratio of 3:4:0.1:4.8:1.2. The formation of smooth nanofibers with protrusions around SC was confirmed using SEM. Nanofiber dressing properties were physicochemically and mechanically characterized by evaluating SEM, DSC, XRD, and FTIR images, tensile strength, and elongation at break. Additionally, a release test of active substances was performed. The absence of interactions between SC, PVP, and SD was confirmed through physicochemical evaluation, and SEM images showed that the nanofiber dressing contained SC and had a porous structure. It also showed a 100% release of SC within 30 min. Overall, our study showed that SC-loaded PVP/SD composite nanofibers prepared using the electrospinning method are promising wound dressings.

Abstract
In this study, binary amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs, fisetin-Eudragit®) and ternary amorphous solid inclusions (ASIs, fisetin-Eudragit®-HP-β-cyclodextrin) of fisetin (FIS) were prepared by the mechanochemical method without solvent. The amorphous nature of FIS in ASDs and ASIs was confirmed using XRPD (X-ray powder diffraction). DSC (Differential scanning calorimetry) confirmed full miscibility of multicomponent delivery systems. FT-IR (Fourier-transform infrared analysis) confirmed interactions that stabilize FIS's amorphous state and identified the functional groups involved. The study culminated in evaluating the impact of amorphization on water solubility and conducting in vitro antioxidant assays: 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)-ABTS, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl-DPPH, Cupric Reducing Antioxidant Capacity-CUPRAC, and Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power-FRAP and in vitro neuroprotective assays: inhibition of acetylcholinesterase-AChE and butyrylcholinesterase-BChE. In addition, molecular docking allowed for the determination of possible bonds and interactions between FIS and the mentioned above enzymes. The best preparation turned out to be ASI_30_EPO (ASD fisetin-Eudragit® containing 30% FIS in combination with HP-β-cyclodextrin), which showed an improvement in apparent solubility (126.5 ± 0.1 µg∙mL-1) and antioxidant properties (ABTS: IC50 = 10.25 µg∙mL-1, DPPH: IC50 = 27.69 µg∙mL-1, CUPRAC: IC0.5 = 9.52 µg∙mL-1, FRAP: IC0.5 = 8.56 µg∙mL-1) and neuroprotective properties (inhibition AChE: 39.91%, and BChE: 42.62%).

Abstract
This study compares rivaroxaban-loaded polymeric microsphere systems with three types of surface microstructure. Three types of polymeric microspheres loaded with rivaroxaban were fabricated using a spray-drying technique: solvent-evaporated, surface-attached, and solvent-wet microspheres, depending on whether the drug and additives used are soluble in the solvent. The solvent-evaporated and surface-attached microspheres had a rivaroxaban/polyvinylpyrrolidone/sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) weight ratio of 1/0.25/2.2, and the solvent-wetted microspheres contained rivaroxaban/polyvinyl alcohol/SLS in equal weight ratio (1/0.25/2). The physicochemical properties of the microspheres were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and particle size distribution analysis. The aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of rivaroxaban in the three types of microspheres were compared to those of the drug powder. The solvent-evaporated, surface-attached, and solvent-wetted microspheres were approximately 208, 140, and 172 times as soluble as the drug powder, and the final dissolution rate (120 min) was approximately 5, 2, and 4 times that of the drug powder, respectively. In addition, the oral bioavailability increased by approximately 2, 1.3, and 1.6 times compared to that of the drug powder (area under drug concentration-time curve: 2101.3 ± 314.8, 1325.2 ± 333.3, and 1664.0 ± 102.6 h·ng/mL, respectively). Finally, the solvent-evaporated microspheres showed the greatest improvement (solvent evaporating microspheres > solvent wetted microspheres > surface-attached microspheres ≥ drug powder). Therefore, the solvent-evaporated microspheres may represent a novel oral dosage form that improves the oral bioavailability of rivaroxaban, a poorly soluble drug.

[PMID: 37931729 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.123578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/08/2023]
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of carrier hydrophilicity on solid self nano-emulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) and self nano-emulsifying granule system (SEGS). The mesoporous calcium silicate (Ca-silicate) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) were utilised as hydrophobic carrier and hydrophilic carrier, respectively. The liquid SNEDDS formulation, composed of Tween80/Kollipohr EL/corn oil (35/50/15%) with 31% (w/w) dexibuprofen, was spray-dried and fluid-bed granulated together with Avicel using Ca-silicate or HP- β-CD as a solid carrier, producing four different solid SNEDDS and SEGS formulations. Unlike the Ca-silicate-based systems, spherical shape and aggregated particles were shown in HP-β-CD-based solid SNEDDS and SEGS, respectively. Molecular interaction was detected between Ca-silicate and the drug; though, none was shown between HP-β-CD and the drug. Each system prepared with either carrier gave no significant differences in micromeritic properties, crystallinity, droplet morphology, size, dissolution and oral bioavailability in rats. However, the HP-β-CD-based system more significantly improved the drug solubility than did the Ca-silicate-based system. Therefore, both carriers hardly affected the properties of both solid SNEDDS and SEGS; though, there were differences in the aspect of appearance, molecular interaction and solubility.

Abstract
The solidification of self-preconcentrated nanoemulsion without changes in nanodroplet formation gains particular consideration due to the interaction between solidified carriers. This work aimed to develop mannitol mesoporous as a soluble carrier for supersaturated self-nanoemulsion (SSNE) using a design of experiment (DoE) approach. The mesoporous carrier was prepared by a spray-drying technique. The type of templating agent (TA) used to form a porous system, the amount of TA, and solid loading in the spray-drying process were studied. Several characterizations were performed for mannitol mesoporous formation, namely, powder X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and surface area analyzer. Solidification of SSNE incorporated into the mesoporous mannitol was carried out, followed by compaction behavior, flowability, and nanodroplet formation. The results revealed several process parameters for preparing the mesoporous mannitol, notably TA, which gained more significant consideration. Solid loading in the mesoporous preparation system reduced the surface area and pore size and did not affect solid SSNE flowability. The amount of TA increased the pore size and volume dramatically as well as the compactibility and flowability. Ammonium carbonate was the preferable TA for preparing the mesoporous carrier, particularly for the nanodroplet formulation process. In addition, synergistic and antagonistic interactions between factors were also observed. The optimized mesoporous carrier was applied for solidification, and there was no difference between SSNE and solid SSNE in the performance of nanodroplet formation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Rivaroxaban (RXB), a novel Xa inhibitor having groundbreaking therapeutic potential. However, this drug is associated with few limitations, including its pharmacokinetics related toxicities. Here, we developed RXB-loaded SLNs (RXB-SLNs) to improve its biopharmaceutical profile. Methods: High pressure homogenizer was used to prepare RXB-SLNs, followed by their particle characterization, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Dynamic light scattering (DSC), and Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis. Beside this, in-vitro, ex-vivo, and in-vivo evaluation, prothrombin time assessment and toxicity was investigated. RESULTS RXB-SLNs had their particle size in nano range (99.1 ± 5.50 nm) with excellent morphology and low polydispersity index (0.402 ± 0.02) and suitable zeta potential (-25.9 ± 1.4 mV). The incorporation efficiency was observed around 95.9 ± 3.9%. In-vitro release profiles of the RXB-SLNs exhibited enhanced dissolution (89 ± 9.91%) as compared to pure drug (11 ± 1.43%) after 24 h of the study. PK study demonstrated a seven times enhanced bioavailability of RXB-SLNs when compared with pure drug. Furthermore, RXB-SLNs exhibited an expressive anti-coagulant behavior in human and rat blood plasma. Also, the final formulation exhibited no toxicity after oral administration of the SLNs. CONCLUSIONS All together, these studies revealed the capability of the SLNs for carrying the RXB with enhanced therapeutic efficacy and no toxicity, most importantly for the treatment of deep vein thrombosis.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop microspheres using water-soluble carriers and surfactants to improve the solubility, dissolution, and oral bioavailability of rivaroxaban (RXB). RXB-loaded microspheres with optimal carrier (poly(vinylpyrrolidone) K30, PVP) and surfactant (sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS)) ratios were prepared. 1H NMR and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analyses showed that drug-excipient and excipient-excipient interactions affected RXB solubility, dissolution, and oral absorption. Therefore, molecular interactions between RXB, PVP, and SLS played an important role in improving RXB solubility, dissolution, and oral bioavailability. Formulations IV and VIII, containing optimized RXB/PVP/SLS ratios (1:0.25:2 and 1:1:2, w/w/w), had significantly improved solubility by approximately 160- and 86-fold, respectively, compared to RXB powder, with the final dissolution rates improved by approximately 4.5- and 3.4-fold, respectively, compared to those of RXB powder at 120 min. Moreover, the oral bioavailability of RXB was improved by 2.4- and 1.7-fold, respectively, compared to that of RXB powder. Formulation IV showed the highest improvement in oral bioavailability compared to RXB powder (AUC, 2400.8 ± 237.1 vs 1002.0 ± 82.3 h·ng/mL). Finally, the microspheres developed in this study successfully improved the solubility, dissolution rate, and bioavailability of RXB, suggesting that formulation optimization with the optimal drug-to-excipient ratio can lead to successful formulation development.

Abstract
Jet milling is a common technique in ultrafine powder preparation field. It has never been used to design delivery systems. Cannabidiol (CBD) is an important cannabinoid of hemp but poor aqueous solubility limited its applications. In this study, solid dispersion (SD) technique was combined with cyclodextrin complexation technique, and jet milling was used for the first time to prepare SDs for improving CBD solubility. Different characterizations demonstrated that the dispersion effect and complexation structure of CBD SD3 prepared by jet milling were comparable to that of CBD SD2 prepared by spray drying (a common solution-based method), and were better than that of CBD SD1 prepared by cogrinding. The water solubility of CBD was increased to 20.902 μg/mL (909-fold) in CBD SD3. Besides, the antioxidant activity and cytotoxicity to tumor cells of CBD were enhanced by dispersion. This work indicated that jet milling, as a new technique with low cost and excellent applicability, could be further developed for the delivery of food functional factors or bioactive molecules.

Abstract
A bifunctional hepatocyte-mitochondrion targeting nanosystem was prepared for astaxanthin by conjugating lactobionic acid (LA) and triphenylphosphonium-modified 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin onto sodium alginate. Hepatocyte-targeting evaluation indicated that the fluorescence intensity of HepaRG cells treated with the bifunctional nanosystem increased 90.3%, which was greater than that (38.7%) of the LA-only targeted nanosystem. The Rcoloc was 0.81 for the bifunctional nanosystem in mitochondrion-targeting analysis, which was greater than that (0.62) of the LA-only targeted nanosystem. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) level of the astaxanthin bifunctional nanosystem treated group significantly reduced to 62.20%, lower than that of free astaxanthin (84.01%) and LA-only targeted group (73.83%). Mitochondrial membrane potential recovered 97.35% in the astaxanthin bifunctional nanosystem treated group while the LA-only targeted group recovered 77.45%. The accumulation of bifunctional nanosystem in liver increased by 31.01% compared to the control. These findings indicated that the bifunctional nanosystem was beneficial for astaxanthin delivery in the liver precision nutrition intervention.

Abstract
Astaxanthin (AST), as natural hydrophobic nutrition, has exhibited health-promoting benefits for its outstanding antioxidant property. However, most studies tend to enhance its stability and solubility while the targeted delivery of AST is limited. In this study, liver-targeted nanocarriers were designed and prepared by lactobionic acid-modified (2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin) for efficient controlled delivery of AST. The minimum average size of AST nanoparticles was about 98 nm with a polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.41. The lactobionic acid-modified AST nanoparticles exhibited significant cellular uptake, and an admirable ability to scavenge free radicals for H2O2-induced HepaRG cells in preventing mitochondrial depolarization. Moreover, accumulation of AST nanoparticles in liver was observed due to the modification of lactobionic acid (LA) of the nanocarriers through the specific binding of LA-asialoglycoprotein receptors. The results in this study provided a new idea for liver-specific nutrition delivery of AST in developing functional food for liver disease nutrition intervention.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop electrolyte complexes of paliperidone (PPD) with various particle sizes using cation-exchange resins (CERs) to enable controlled release (both immediate and sustained release). CERs of specific particle size ranges were obtained by sieving commercial products. PPD–CER complexes (PCCs) were prepared in an acidic solution of pH 1.2 and demonstrated a high binding efficiency (>99.0%). PCCs were prepared with CERs of various particle sizes (on average, 100, 150, and 400 μm) at the weight ratio of PPD to CER (1:2 and 1:4). Physicochemical characterization studies such as Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, powder X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy between PCCs (1:4) and physical mixtures confirmed PCC formation. In the drug release test, PPD alone experienced a complete drug release from PCC of >85% within 60 min and 120 min in pH 1.2 and pH 6.8 buffer solutions, respectively. Alternatively, PCC (1:4) prepared with CER (150 μm) formed spherical particles and showed an almost negligible release of PPD in pH 1.2 buffer (<10%, 2 h) while controlling the release in pH 6.8 buffer (>75%, 24 h). The release rate of PPD from PCCs was reduced with the increase in CER particle size and CER ratio. The PCCs explored in this study could be a promising technology for controlling the release of PPD in a variety of methods.

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance related to the misuse of antibiotics is a well-known current topic. Their excessive use in several fields has led to enormous selective pressure on pathogenic and commensal bacteria, driving the evolution of antimicrobial resistance genes with severe impacts on human health. Among all the possible strategies, a viable one could be the development of medical features that employ essential oils (EOs), complex natural mixtures extracted from different plant organs, rich in organic compounds showing, among others, antiseptic properties. In this work, green extracted essential oil of Thymus vulgaris was included in cyclic oligosaccharides cyclodextrins (CD) and prepared in the form of tablets. This essential oil has been shown to have a strong transversal efficacy both as an antifungal and as an antibacterial agent. Its inclusion allows its effective use because an extension of the exposure time to the active compounds is obtained and, therefore, a more marked efficacy, especially against biofilm-producing microorganisms such as P. aeruginosa and S. aureus, was registered. The efficacy of the tablet against candidiasis opens their possible use as a chewable tablet against oral candidiasis and as a vaginal tablet against vaginal candidiasis. Moreover, the registered wide efficacy is even more positive since the proposed approach can be defined as effective, safe, and green. In fact, the natural mixture of the essential oil is produced by the steam current method; therefore, the manufacturer employs substances that are not harmful, with very low production and management costs.

Amidated Pluronic Decorated Muco-Penetrating Self-Nano Emulsifying Drug Delivery System (SNEDDS) for Improved Anti- Salmonella typhi Potential. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:2433. [PMID: 36365252 PMCID: PMC9694248 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14112433] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2022] [Revised: 11/06/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2023] Open
Abstract
The enteric system residing notorious Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhi) is an intracellular, food-borne, and zoonotic pathogen causing typhoid fever. Typhoid fever is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in developing and underdeveloped countries. It also increased the prevalence of multidrug resistance globally. Currently, available anti-bacterial modalities are unable to penetrate into the intracellular compartments effectively for eradicating S. typhi infection. Therefore, in this study, we developed nanostructured lipid-based carriers in the form of a self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) for targeted delivery of ciprofloxacin (CIP) into the S. typhi intracellular reservoirs. Capryol 90, Tween 80, and Span 20 were finalized as suitable oil, surfactant, and co-surfactant, respectively, according to the pseudoternary phase diagram emulsifying region. Targeting capability and mucopenetration of the SNEDDS was attributed to the inclusion of amidated pluronic (NH2-F127). Developed NH2-F127 SNEDDS were characterized via physicochemical, in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo evaluation parameters. The size of the SNEDDS was found to be 250 nm, having positively charged zeta potential. In vitro dissolution of SNEDDS showed 80% sustained release of CIP in 72 h with maximum entrapment efficiency up to 90% as well as good hemocompatibility by showing less than 0.2% hemolysis and 90% biocompatibility. The survival rate of S. typhi in macrophages (RAW 264.7) was minimal, i.e., only 2% in the case of NH2-F127 SNEDDS. Macrophage uptake assay via nanostructures confirmed the maximum cellular uptake as evidenced by the highest fluorescence. Biofilm dispersion assay showed rapid eradication of developed resistant biofilms on the gall bladder. In vivo pharmacokinetics showed improved bioavailability by showing an increased area under the curve (AUC) value. Taken together, NH2-F127-SNEDDS can be utilized as an alternative and efficient delivery system for the sustained release of therapeutic amounts of CIP for the treatment of S. typhi.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a four-component self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (FCS) to enhance the solubility and dissolution of pazopanib hydrochloride (PZH). In the solubility test, PZH showed a highly pH-dependent solubility (pH 1.2 > water >> pH 4.0 and pH 6.8) and was solubilized at 70 °C in the order Kollisolv PG (5.38%, w/w) > Kolliphor RH40 (0.49%) > Capmul MCM C10 (0.21%) and Capmul MCM C8 (0.19%), selected as the solubilizer, the surfactant, and the oils, respectively. In the characterization of the three-component SNEDDS (TCS) containing Kolliphor RH40/Capmul MCM C10, the particle size of dispersion was very small (<50 nm) and the PZH loading was 0.5% at the weight ratio of 9/1. In the characterization of FCS containing additional Kollisolv PG to TCS, PZH loading was increased to 5.30% without any PZH precipitation, which was 10-fold higher compared to the TCS. The optimized FCS prepared with the selected formulation (Kolliphor RH40/Capmul MCM C10/Kollisolv PG) showed a consistently complete and high dissolution rate (>95% at 120 min) at four different pHs with 1% polysorbate 80, whereas the raw PZH and Kollisolv PG solution showed a pH-dependent poor dissolution rate (about 40% at 120 min), specifically at pH 6.8 with 1% polysorbate 80. In conclusion, PZH-loaded FCS in this work demonstrated enhanced solubility and a consistent dissolution rate regardless of medium pH.

Effects of Polymers on the Drug Solubility and Dissolution Enhancement of Poorly Water-Soluble Rivaroxaban. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23169491. [PMID: 36012748 PMCID: PMC9409000 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23169491] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2022] [Accepted: 08/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of hydrophilic polymers in a solid dispersion formulation in improving the solubility and dissolution rate of rivaroxaban (RXB), a poorly soluble drug. The developed solid dispersion consisted of two components, a drug and a polymer, and the drug was dispersed as amorphous particles in a polymer matrix using the spray drying method. Polymeric solid dispersions were evaluated using solubility tests, in vitro dissolution tests, powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy, and particle size distribution analysis. To maximize physical stability against crystallization and improve the solubility and dissolution of RXB, it is important to select the appropriate polymer type and the optimal ratio of the polymer to the drug. The optimized polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based (1/0.5, w/w) and gelatin-based (1/5, w/w) solid dispersion formulations showed 6.3 and 3.6 times higher drug solubilities than pure RXB powder, respectively, and the final dissolution rate was improved by approximately 1.5 times. Scanning electron microscopy and particle size distribution analyses confirmed that the gelatin-based solid dispersion was smaller and more spherical than the PVA-based solid dispersion, suggesting that the gelatin-based solid dispersion had a faster initial dissolution rate. Differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffraction analyses confirmed that RXB had successfully changed from a crystalline form to an amorphous form, contributing to the improvement in its solubility and dissolution rate. This study provides a strategy for selecting suitable polymers for the development of amorphous polymer solid dispersions that can overcome precipitation during dissolution and stabilization of the amorphous state. In addition, the selected polymer solid dispersion improved the drug solubility and dissolution rate of RXB, a poorly soluble drug, and may be used as a promising drug delivery system.

Abstract
Alectinib hydrochloride (ALH), a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is a practically water-insoluble drug classified as BCS class IV. The present study aimed to develop novel suspended self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (Su-SNEDDS) to enhance the solubility and dissolution rate. The Su-SNEDDS was prepared by saturation and suspension of ALH in SNEDDS with ultrasonication energy. According to evaluation by the dispersion test and the results of particle size analysis, the selected SNEDDS composed of Kolliphor HS 15 and Capmul MCM C8 as surfactant and oil, respectively, showed a complete dissolution within 30 min. However, the SNEDDS loaded and solubilized only small amount of ALH (<0.6%, w/w). On the other hand, 10% ALH-loaded Su-SNEDDS containing small and micronized ALH particles of <5 μm had about 20-fold higher ALH-loading% than the SNEDDS and reached a 100% dissolution rate within 30 min in 1% sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) pH 1.2 buffer. In the dispersion test and microscopic observation, micronized ALH particles in the Su-SNEDDS were readily dispersed in the dissolution medium with spontaneous nanoemulsion formation and instantly solubilized with the aid of SLS. Taken together, our results suggest that the Su-SNEDDS would be a potent oral dosage form to enhance the solubilization and dissolution rate of ALH in a new technological way.

Abstract
Resibufogenin (RBG) is a natural medicinal ingredient with promising cardiac protection and antitumor activity. However, poor solubility and severe gastric mucosa irritation restrict its application in the pharmaceutical field. In this study, the inclusion complex of RBG with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) was prepared using the co-evaporation method, and the molar ratio of RBG to CD was determined to be approximately 1:2 by continuous variation plot for both CDs. The formation of inclusion complexes between RBG and each CD (RBG/β-CD and RBG/HP-β-CD) was evaluated by phase solubility study, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and thin-layer chromatography. Powder X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry confirmed drug amorphization and encapsulation in the molecular cage for both CDs. Moreover, the inclusion complexes’ morphologies were observed using scanning electron microscopy. The dissolution rate of the inclusion complexes was markedly improved compared to that of RBG, and the complexes retained their antitumor activity, as shown in the in vitro cytotoxicity assay on a human lung adenocarcinoma cancer (A549) cell line. Moreover, less gastric mucosal irritation was observed for the inclusion complex. Thus, the inclusion complex should be considered a promising strategy for the delivery of poorly water-soluble anticancer agents, such as RBG.

Abstract
The current work aimed to enhance the oral bioavailability of water-insoluble drug Artemisinin (ART) by the inclusion of ART with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and then loaded with porous starch (PS). The preparation conditions of ART HP-β-CD inclusion complex loaded with PS (AHPS) were optimized according to drug loading (DL) and entrapment efficiency (EE). The properties of AHPS were characterized by optical and thermodynamic methods. ART was linked by hydrogen bond to HP-β-CD to form hydrophilic supramolecules, which are loaded into PS under the action of hydrogen bond. The maximum DL and EE of AHPS were about 16.51% and 67.26%, respectively. Then we investigated the physicochemical properties and antimalarial activity of AHPS. The solubility and bioavailability of AHPS at 48 h were higher than ART and market ART piperaquine tablets (APT), and showed better antimalarial activity in vitro and vivo. It provides a new idea for the development and application of fat-soluble drug.

Abstract
Dapagliflozin base and a commercial dapagliflozin propanediol hydrate cocrystal (DPF-PDHC) were highly hygroscopic and thermally unstable. In this study, to address this limitation, we prepared a novel dapagliflozin di-L-proline cocrystal (DPF-LPC) and evaluated its physicochemical characterization compared with DPF-PDHC. After the preparation of the DPF-LPC-loaded tablet, its dissolution, stability and bioequivalence in beagle dogs and mini-pigs were assessed. DPF-LPC was well prepared with a dapagliflozin base and L-proline in a molar ratio of 1:2. Similar to DPF-PDHC, DPF-LPC was highly lipophilic and crystalline in nature. However, these two cocrystals exhibited different melting points and crystalline structures, indicating their different cocrystal forms. Moreover, DPF-LPC exhibited less hygroscopicity and lower water content than DPF-PDHC. The DPF-LPC-loaded tablet composed of DPF-LPC, Comprecel M102, lactose monohydrate, crospovidone, magnesium stearate, and Opadry (coating) at a weight ratio of 15.6:104.4:100.0:8.0:2.0:7.0, was dissolution-equivalent to the commercial tablet. Moreover, it provided lower impurities than the commercial tablet, indicating its better stability. In the two animals, there were no significant differences in the plasma concentrations, AUC, Cmax, and Tmax values, suggesting that they were bioequivalent. Therefore, the novel DPF-LPC-loaded tablet with excellent stability and bioequivalence may be used as a potential alternative to the commercial DPF-PDHC-loaded tablet.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to screen various drug delivery systems for improving the aqueous solubility and oral bioavailability of sildenafil. Three representative techniques, solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS), amorphous microspheres and crystalline microspheres, were compared. Methods Both microspheres systems contained sildenafil:Labrasol:PVP at a weight ratio of 1:1:6. The amorphous microspheres were manufactured using ethanol, while crystalline microspheres were generated using distilled water. Liquid SNEDDS was composed of sildenafil:Labrasol:Transcutol HP:Captex 300 in the ratio of 1:70:15:15 (w:w:w:w). The solidification process in SNEDDS was performed using HDK N20 Pharma as a solid carrier. Results The amorphous microspheres appeared spherical with significantly decreased particle size compared to the drug powder. The crystalline microspheres exhibited a rough surface with no major particle-size difference compared with sildenafil powder, indicating that the hydrophilic excipients adhered to the sildenafil crystal. Solid SNEDDS presented a smooth surface, assuming that the oily liquid was adsorbed to the porous solid carrier. According to the physicochemical evaluation, the crystalline state maintained in crystalline microspheres, whereas the crystal state changed to amorphous state in other formulations. Amorphous microspheres, crystalline microspheres and solid SNEDDS produced about 79, 55, 82-fold increased solubility, compared to drug powder. Moreover, the prepared formulations provided a higher dissolution rate (%) and plasma concentration than did the drug powder (performance order; solid SNEDDS ≥ amorphous microspheres ≥ crystalline microspheres > drug powder). Among the formulations, solid SNEDDS demonstrated the highest improvement in oral bioavailability (AUC; 1508.78 ± 343.95 h·ng/mL). Conclusion Therefore, solid SNEDDS could be recommended as an oral dosage form for enhancing the oral bioavailability of sildenafil.
