Parenteral iron nutrition: Iron dextran-poloxamer thermosensitive hydrogel for prolonged intramuscular iron supplementation. Int J Pharm 2024; 663:124559. [PMID: 39122197 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124559] [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: 05/10/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/04/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of novel poloxamer thermosensitive hydrogels (PTHs) formulations for prolonged release of iron dextran particles (IDP) for intramuscular (IM) injection. The thermosensitive behaviour helps to avoid hepcidin overexpression and toxicity by releasing IDPs without iron accumulation in injection or deposit sites. We hypothesized that novel PTH formulation would prolong iron liberation compared to the commercial iron dextran formulation (FEDEX). PTHs loaded with IDPs were developed with increasing iron content (0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 g of iron/g of poloxamer) and characterized as a prolonged release IM iron supplement. The PTHs had a biocompatible pH for IM injection (6.4) and thermosensitive viscosity, increasing from ∼50 (4 °C) to ∼3000 mPa.s (37 °C). PTHs were successfully injected in the sol state (at 4 °C) into pork meat at 37 °C, transitioning to the gel state in situ (in ∼60-190 s). Structural characterization indicated that there were no PTH-IDP chemical interactions, suggesting that IDP entrapment in PTHs was physical upon gelation. In vitro release studies revealed that iron release from PTH (0.4 g of iron/g of poloxamer) reached 100 % by day 10, whereas 100 % release from FEDEX was complete in 4 h. This novel iron PTH formulation achieved a 60 times long iron release compared to the commercial product. In conclusion, the reported strategy shows adequate IDP entrapment/release properties for prolonged iron release following ex vivo IM injection using biocompatible materials. These results provide a strong basis for future preclinical evaluation to elucidate aspects such as drug release, local irritation, biocompatibility, and efficacy.

Yao W, Wang T, Huang L, Bao Z, Wen S, Huang F. Embelin alleviates weaned piglets intestinal inflammation and barrier dysfunction via PCAF/NF-κB signaling pathway in intestinal epithelial cells. J Anim Sci Biotechnol 2022; 13:139. [PMID: 36514139 PMCID: PMC9749222 DOI: 10.1186/s40104-022-00787-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intestinal barrier plays key roles in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. Inflammation damage can severely destroy the intestinal integrity of mammals. This study was conducted to investigate the protective effects of embelin and its molecular mechanisms on intestinal inflammation in a porcine model. One hundred sixty 21-day-old castrated weaned pigs (Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire, average initial body weight was 7.05 ± 0.28 kg, equal numbers of castrated males and females) were allotted to four groups and fed with a basal diet or a basal diet containing 200, 400, or 600 mg embelin/kg for 28 d. The growth performance, intestinal inflammatory cytokines, morphology of jejunum and ileum, tight junctions in the intestinal mucosa of piglets were tested. IPEC-1 cells with overexpression of P300/CBP associating factor (PCAF) were treated with embelin, the activity of PCAF and acetylation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) were analyzed to determine the effect of embelin on PCAF/NF-κB pathway in vitro. RESULTS The results showed that embelin decreased (P < 0.05) serum D-lactate and diamine oxidase (DAO) levels, and enhanced the expression of ZO-1, occludin and claudin-1 protein in jejunum and ileum. Moreover, the expression levels of critical inflammation molecules (interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, and NF-κB) were down-regulated (P < 0.05) by embelin in jejunal and ileal mucosa. Meanwhile, the activity of PCAF were down-regulated (P < 0.05) by embelin. Importantly, transfection of PCAF siRNAs to IPEC-1 cell decreased NF-κB activities; embelin treatment downregulated (P < 0.05) the acetylation and activities of NF-κB by 31.7%-74.6% in IPEC-1 cells with overexpression of PCAF. CONCLUSIONS These results suggested that embelin ameliorates intestinal inflammation in weaned pigs, which might be mediated by suppressing the PCAF/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Abstract
The purpose of the study was to analyse the chemical composition of corn cookies containing different types of sugar and fat, and determine their effect on physiological parameters in diabetic rats. The experimental animals were studied using a randomised block design with seven groups of rats. The test groups were as follows: group 1, negative control rats (normal) fed standard; group 2, positive control rats (diabetic) fed standard; group 3, diabetic rats fed wheat cookies; group 4, diabetic rats fed C1 corn cookies; group 5, diabetic rats fed C2 corn cookies; group 6, diabetic rats fed C3 corn cookies; and group 7, diabetic rats fed C4 corn cookies. The tests on the rats revealed that the cookies had significant effects on blood sugar, malondialdehyde (MDA) and haemoglobin levels as well as body weight parameters. Corn cookies containing crystalline coconut sugar and virgin coconut oil (VCO) were effective at lowering blood sugar and MDA levels while increasing haemoglobin and body weight in diabetic rats. Significantly, after four weeks on this diet, rats with diabetes mellitus were in the same overall condition as normal rats. These findings suggest that these cookies may be gluten-free functional foods suitable for diabetics. These findings suggest that diabetics can safely consume maize cookies.

Abstract
Multi-omics were applied to compare the risks and benefits of ferrous sulfate (FeSO4) and ferrous bisglycinate (FebisGly) in pigs in the current study. The FebisGly group showed reduced triglyceride (TG) and triglyceride/total cholesterol (TG/CHOL) values in the serum and reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) and increased glutathione (GSH) levels in the duodenum. Transcriptome analysis revealed that differentially expressed genes in the duodenum were enriched in oxidative phosphorylation, AMPK, and FOXO signaling pathways between FeSO4 and FebisGly groups. AMPK phosphorylation and FOXO3 protein expressions were significantly increased in the FebisGly group. Bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed significantly reduced alpha diversity in the FeSO4 group and increased Firmicutes, reduced Bacteroidetes, and Proteobacteria abundances in the FebisGly group. Targeted metabolome revealed notably increased lithocholic acid (LCA), glycolithocholic acid (GLCA), hyodeoxycholic acid (HDCA), ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), and glycoursodeoxycholic acid (GUDCA) in the FebisGly group. RDA analysis indicated that Fusobacteria was positively correlated with TG and TG/high-density lipoprotein in the FeSO4 group while Christensenellaceae_R-7_group, Ruminococcaceae_UCG-002, and Ruminococcaceae_UCG-005 were positively correlated with UDCA and GLCA in the FebisGly group. According to the current study, FebisGly improves serum lipid metabolism, modulates intestinal antioxidant capacity via the AMPK/FOXO pathway, and reconstitutes gut microbiota and bile acid profiles in pigs.

Abstract
Full-fat soybean powder was a more difficult-to-fortify food vehicle than cereal flour and powdered milk products because of a large quantity of unsaturated fatty acids, particularly when iron was necessary to be fortified. Minimizing oxidation of lipids was extremely valuable in the fortified-food industry. However, very limited data were available on the effect of microencapsulation of iron compounds on lipid oxidation in full-fat soybean powder. In our study, ferric pyrophosphate (FP) was microencapsulated by the emulsifying-gelation technique and its effect on the storage stability of Yingyangbao (YYB) was evaluated. The results showed that microencapsulated FP (MFP) was regularly spherical and uniformly distributed. MFP could significantly (P < 0.05) decrease the sensory score of rancid odor for YYB. The formation of lipid oxidation products such as carbonyl compounds, malondialdehyde, pentanal, and hexanal in YYB during the accelerated test was significantly retarded, improving oxidative stability and delaying the sensory deterioration. The E-nose analysis showed that YYB with MFP had significantly (P < 0.05) lower levels of response values on the specific sensors than YYB containing FP with or without ascorbyl palmitate. MFP could significantly (P < 0.05) improve the sensory and oxidative stability of iron-fortified full-fat soybean powder such as YYB.
