Novel nanostructured lipid carriers loading Apigenin for anterior segment ocular pathologies. Int J Pharm 2024; 658:124222. [PMID: 38735632 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024]
Abstract
Dry eye disease (DED) is a chronic multifactorial disorder of the ocular surface caused by tear film dysfunction and constitutes one of the most common ocular conditions worldwide. However, its treatment remains unsatisfactory. While artificial tears are commonly used to moisturize the ocular surface, they do not address the underlying causes of DED. Apigenin (APG) is a natural product with anti-inflammatory properties, but its low solubility and bioavailability limit its efficacy. Therefore, a novel formulation of APG loaded into biodegradable and biocompatible nanoparticles (APG-NLC) was developed to overcome the restricted APG stability, improve its therapeutic efficacy, and prolong its retention time on the ocular surface by extending its release. APG-NLC optimization, characterization, biopharmaceutical properties and therapeutic efficacy were evaluated. The optimized APG-NLC exhibited an average particle size below 200 nm, a positive surface charge, and an encapsulation efficiency over 99 %. APG-NLC exhibited sustained release of APG, and stability studies demonstrated that the formulation retained its integrity for over 25 months. In vitro and in vivo ocular tolerance studies indicated that APG-NLC did not cause any irritation, rendering them suitable for ocular topical administration. Furthermore, APG-NLC showed non-toxicity in an epithelial corneal cell line and exhibited fast cell internalization. Therapeutic benefits were demonstrated using an in vivo model of DED, where APG-NLC effectively reversed DED by reducing ocular surface cellular damage and increasing tear volume. Anti-inflammatory assays in vivo also showcased its potential to treat and prevent ocular inflammation, particularly relevant in DED patients. Hence, APG-NLC represent a promising system for the treatment and prevention of DED and its associated inflammation.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:1014. [PMID: 36903875 PMCID: PMC10005159 DOI: 10.3390/plants12051014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 01/20/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Invasive species employ competitive strategies such as releasing allelopathic chemicals into the environment that negatively impact native species. Decomposing Amur honeysuckle (Lonicera maackii) leaves leach various allelopathic phenolics into the soil, decreasing the vigor of several native species. Notable differences in the net negative impacts of L. maackii metabolites on target species were argued to depend on soil properties, the microbiome, the proximity to the allelochemical source, the allelochemical concentration, or environmental conditions. This study is the first to address the role of target species' metabolic properties in determining their net sensitivity to allelopathic inhibition by L. maackii. Gibberellic acid (GA3) is a critical regulator of seed germination and early development. We hypothesized that GA3 levels might affect the target sensitivity to allelopathic inhibitors and evaluated differences in the response of a standard (control, Rbr), a GA3-overproducing (ein), and a GA3-deficient (ros) Brassica rapa variety to L. maackii allelochemicals. Our results demonstrate that high GA3 concentrations substantially alleviate the inhibitory effects of L. maackii allelochemicals. A better understanding of the importance of target species' metabolic properties in their responses to allelochemicals will contribute to developing novel invasive species control and biodiversity conservation protocols and may contribute to applications in agriculture.

Abstract
The current investigation was performed with an aim to improve the aqueous solubility, dissolution rate, and thus the biological activity of apigenin (APG) using the solubilizers hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) and chitosan (CTSN). A binary and ternary inclusion complexes of APG with HPβCD and CTSN were prepared by physical mixing, fusion, and solvent evaporation methods. The liquid state characterization of the APG, the solubilizers, and the physical and chemical interactions between them was done through phase solubility approach. The solid-state characterization was performed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). The in vitro dissolution test and antioxidant activity and in vivo anti-inflammatory activity of the ternary inclusion complex in albino rats were performed to assess the performance of the APG. Phase solubility study results revealed a remarkable increase in apparent stability constant (Kc) and complexation efficiency (CE) of HPβCD in presence of CTSN in ternary complex with above 8 folds more increment in solubility of APG than its binary complex. The in vitro dissolution rate, antioxidant activity, and the anti-inflammatory effect of the APG ternary inclusion complex were found to be significantly higher than that of pure APG. Solid state characterization confirmed the formation of a ternary inclusion complex. 1H-NMR study gave more insight at molecular level into how different groups of APG were responsible for complex formation with the HPβCD and how CTSN was significantly influencing on the APG-HPβCD complex formed. Nevertheless, pharmacokinetic and histopathological studies of our APG-HPβCD-CTSN ternary complex would yield much rewarding results.

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to prepare a stable apigenin nanosuspension with a drug concentration of 1.11 mg/mL through green and efficient antisolvent method. Compared with the traditional preparation process that may use toxic reagents, in this study, a green and effective strategy was applied for the preparation of stable apigenin nanosuspension by using an antisolvent method with PEG 400 as antisolvent to improve the solubility and bioavailability. It was found that the particle size of apigenin nanosuspension was about 280 nm, and the solubility and dissolution of the nanosuspension were 33 and 3 times higher than that of the apigenin, respectively. Pharmacokinetic study showed that the Cmax and AUC 0-8 h values of the nanosuspension in fasting rats achieved about 6- and 2.5-fold enhancement than that of the apigenin, respectively. Stability test showed that the apigenin nanosuspension could be stored stably for 12 months at 25℃. Taken together, the antisolvent method with PEG 400 was proven to be a green and effective method to prepare the stable nanosuspension of poorly soluble drugs.

Abstract
In recent years, flavonoids have become a highly researched topic due to their health beneficial effects. Since flavonoids’ solubility plays a significant role in their use in pharmaceutical, food, biological, and chemical areas, the determination of suitable solvents is crucial. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis was used to characterize functional groups of several flavonoids and phenolic compounds, namely luteolin, hesperidin, quercetin, naringenin, gallic acid and tannic acid. Concentration dependence on transmittance was evaluated for these compounds in ethanol. Afterwards, luteolin was chosen as a model flavonoid, with its concentration correlated with transmittance using 15 solvents with different polarities. Luteolin solubility was further corroborated with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). These results shed light on using FTIR as a semi-quantitative method for the initial screening of solvents and the solubility of different compounds while saving time and solvents. Hence, HPLC would only be needed as a final step for the most promising solvents.

Abstract
Numerous diseases such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative diseases, etc. are linked with overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress. Apigenin (5,7,4'-trihydroxyflavone) is a widely distributed flavonoid, responsible for antioxidant potential and chelating redox active metals. Being present as glycosides or polymers, the apigenin degrades to variable amount in the digestive tract; during processing, its activity is also reduced due to high temperature or Fe/Cu addition. Although its metabolism remains elusive, enteric absorption occurs sufficiently to reduce plasma indices of oxidant status. Delayed clearance in plasma and slow liver decomposition enhance its systematic bioavailability. Antioxidant mechanism of apigenin includes: oxidant enzymes inhibition, modulation of redox signaling pathways (NF-kB, Nrf2, MAPK, and P13/Akt), reinforcing enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidant, metal chelation, and free radical scavenging. DPPH, ORAC, ABTS, and FRAP are the major in vitro methods for determining the antioxidant potential of apigenin, whereas its protective effects in whole and living cells of animals are examined using in vivo studies. Due to limited information on antioxidant potential of apigenin, its in vitro and in vivo antioxidant effects are, therefore, discussed with action mechanism and interaction with the signaling pathways. This paper concludes that apigenin is a potent antioxidant compound to overcome the difficulties related to oxidative stress and other chronic diseases.

Abstract
The objective of this work was to develop sustained-release Ca-alginate beads of apigenin using sodium alginate, a natural polysaccharide. Six batches were prepared by applying the ionotropic gelation technique, wherein calcium chloride was used as a crosslinking agent. The beads were evaluated for particle size, drug loading, percentage yield, and in vitro drug release. Particle size was found to decrease, and drug entrapment efficiency was enhanced with an increase in the polymer concentration. The dissolution study showed sustained drug release from the apigenin-loaded alginate beads with an increase in the polymer proportion. Based on the dissolution profiles, BD6 formulation was optimized and characterized for FTIR, DSC, XRD, and SEM, results of which indicated successful development of apigenin-loaded Ca alginate beads. MTT assay demonstrated a potential anticancer effect against the breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines. The antimicrobial activity exhibited effective inhibition in the bacterial and fungal growth rate. The DPPH measurement revealed that the formulation had substantial antioxidant activity, with EC50 value slightly lowered compared to pure apigenin. A stability study demonstrated that the BD6 was stable with similar (f2) drug release profiles in harsh condition. In conclusion, alginate-based beads could be used for sustaining the drug release of poorly water-soluble apigenin while also improving in vitro antitumor, antimicrobial, and antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Bioconjugation is an emerging field in the food and pharmaceutical industry. Due to its biocompatibility and high ligand binding capacity, albumin is widely used in modern drug delivery systems. However, the protein is sensitive to environmental stresses; albumin conjugates, on the other hand, have improved functional properties. Biopolymers are gaining interest due to their biodegradability and safety, compared to synthetic polymers. In this study, albumin–biopolymer bioconjugates were prepared by nonenzymatic Maillard reaction at 60 °C and 80% relative humidity. This nonenzymatic conjugation takes place between reducing sugars and available amino groups of a protein in certain conditions. The optimal molar ratio and time for the conjugation were studied by several investigation methods, including circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopy, sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS–PAGE), and determination of available amino groups with ortho-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) assay. All of the measurements provided evidence for the covalent bonding of albumin and biopolymers, resulting in bioconjugates. Based on the results, a higher molar ratio and longer time are necessary to complete the reaction with the available amino groups. However, the optimal parameters are specific to each given biopolymer. The rheological behavior of the conjugates is characteristic of the initial biopolymer, which can be useful in drug development. Moreover, both the physical characteristics of albumin and the solubility-improving capacity were enhanced. Therefore, the potential use of albumin–biopolymer bioconjugates in the pharmaceutical industry could be considered.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to solubilize simvastatin (SIM) using different micellar solutions of various non-ionic surfactants such as Tween-80 (T80), Tween-20 (T20), Myrj-52 (M52), Myrj-59 (M59), Brij-35 (B35) and Brij-58 (B58). The solubility of SIM in water (H2O) and different micellar concentrations of T80, T20, M52, M59, B35 and B58 was determined at temperatures T = 300.2 K to 320.2 K under atmospheric pressure p = 0.1 MPa using saturation shake flask method. The experimental solubility data of SIM was regressed using van’t Hoff and Apelblat models. The solubility of SIM (mole fraction) was recorded highest in M59 (1.54 x 10−2) followed by M52 (6.56 x 10−3), B58 (5.52 x 10−3), B35 (3.97 x 10−3), T80 (1.68 x 10−3), T20 (1.16 x 10−3) [the concentration of surfactants was 20 mM in H2O in all cases] and H2O (1.94 x 10−6) at T = 320.2 K. The same results were also recorded at each temperature and each micellar concentration of T80, T20, M52, M59, B35 and B58. “Apparent thermodynamic analysis” showed endothermic and entropy-driven dissolution/solubilization of SIM in H2O and various micellar solutions of T80, T20, M52, M59, B35 and B58.

Abstract
Abstract
The preset study was undertaken to determine solubility and solution thermodynamics of a novel anticancer drug baricitinib in some pharmaceutically used mono/pure solvents including “water, ethanol, polyethylene glycol-400 (PEG-400), ethyl acetate (EA), dichloromethane (DCM) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)” at “T = 298.2 K to 323.2 K” and “p = 0.1 MPa”. The solubility of baricitinib after equilibrium (saturation state) was analyzed spectrophotometrically by applying an isothermal technique. Characterization of solid phases of initial and equilibrated baricitinib was confirmed with the help of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Measured solubilities of baricitinib were regressed using “van’t Hoff and Apelblat models”. DSC spectra of baricitinib showed no change in physical state of baricitinib after equilibrium. Solubilities of baricitinib (as mole fraction) were estimated highest in DMSO (1.65 × 10−1) followed by PEG-400 (1.42 × 10−1), DCM (1.29 × 10−3), ethanol (7.41 × 10−4), EA (4.74 × 10−4) and water (1.76 × 10−4) at “T = 323.2 K” and same tendencies were also noted at other temperatures studied. With the help of theoretical solubilities of baricitinib, activity coefficients were estimated. The estimated data of activity coefficients indicated higher molecular interactions in baricitinib-DMSO and baricitinib-PEG-400 as compared with baricitinib-water, baricitinib-EA, baricitinib-DCM and baricitinib-ethanol. Thermodynamic treatment of solubility values of baricitinib showed “endothermic and entropy-driven dissolution” of baricitinib in all pharmaceutically used solvents evaluated.

Abstract
Apigenin (APG) is a poorly soluble bioactive compound/nutraceutical which shows poor bioavailability upon oral administration. Hence, the objective of this research work was to develop APG solid dispersions (SDs) using different techniques with the expectation to obtain improvement in its in vitro dissolution rate and in vivo bioavailability upon oral administration. Different SDs of APG were prepared by microwave, melted and kneaded technology using pluronic-F127 (PL) as a carrier. Prepared SDs were characterized using "thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectrometer, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)". After characterization, prepared SDs of APG were studied for in vitro drug release/dissolution profile and in vivo pharmacokinetic studies. The results of TGA, DSC, FTIR, PXRD and SEM indicated successful formation of APG SDs. In vitro dissolution experiments suggested significant release of APG from all SDs (67.39-84.13%) in comparison with control (32.74%). Optimized SD of APG from each technology was subjected to in vivo pharmacokinetic study in rats. The results indicated significant improvement in oral absorption of APG from SD prepared using microwave and melted technology in comparison with pure drug and commercial capsule. The enhancement in oral bioavailability of APG from microwave SD (319.19%) was 3.19 fold as compared with marketed capsule (100.00%). Significant enhancement in the dissolution rate and oral absorption of APG from SD suggested that developed SD systems can be successfully used for oral drug delivery system of APG.
