Abstract
BACKGROUND Plant fungal diseases present a major challenge to global agricultural production. Despite extensive efforts to develop fungicides, particularly succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs), their effectiveness is often limited by poor retention of fungicide droplets on hydrophobic leaves. The off-target losses and unintended release cause fungal resistance and severe environmental pollution. RESULTS To update the structure of existing SDHIs and synchronously realize the efficient utilization, we have employed a sophisticated supramolecular strategy to optimize a structurally novel SDH inhibitor (AoH25), creating an innovative supramolecular SDH fungicide (AoH25@β-CD), driven by the host-guest recognition principle between AoH25 and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). Intriguingly, AoH25@β-CD self-assembles into biocompatible supramolecular nanovesicles, which reinforce the droplet/foliage (liquid-solid) interface interaction and the effective wetting and retention on leaf surfaces, setting the foundation for enhancing fungicide utilization. Mechanistic studies revealed that AoH25@β-CD exhibited significantly higher inhibition of SDH (IC50 = 1.56 µM) compared to fluopyram (IC50 = 244.41 µM) and AoH25 alone (IC50 = 2.29 µM). Additionally, AoH25@β-CD increased the permeability of cell membranes in Botryosphaeria dothidea, facilitating better penetration of active ingredients into pathogenic cells. Further experimental outcomes confirmed that AoH25@β-CD was 88.5% effective against kiwifruit soft rot at a low-dose of 100 µg mL-1, outperforming commercial fungicides such as fluopyram (52.4%) and azoxystrobin (65.4%). Moreover, AoH25@β-CD showed broad-spectrum bioactivity against oilseed rape sclerotinia, achieving an efficacy of 87.2%, outstripping those of fluopyram (48.7%) and azoxystrobin (76.7%). CONCLUSION This innovative approach addresses key challenges related to fungicide deposition and resistance, improving the bioavailability of agricultural chemicals. The findings highlight AoH25@β-CD as a novel supramolecular SDH inhibitor, demonstrating its potential as an efficient and sustainable solution for plant disease management.

Development of itraconazole ocular delivery system using β-cyclodextrin complexation incorporated into dissolving microneedles for potential improvement treatment of fungal keratitis. JOURNAL OF BIOMATERIALS SCIENCE. POLYMER EDITION 2024:1-28. [PMID: 39083398 DOI: 10.1080/09205063.2024.2380129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
Itraconazole (ITZ) is one of the broad-spectrum antifungal agents for treating fungal keratitis. In clinical use, ITZ has problems related to its poor solubility in water, which results in low bioavailability when administered orally. To resolve the issue, we formulated ITZ into the inclusion complex (ITZ-IC) system using β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), which can potentially increase the solubility and bioavailability of ITZ. The molecular docking study has confirmed that the binding energy of ITZ with the β-CD was -5.0 kcal/mol, indicating a stable conformation of the prepared inclusion complex. Moreover, this system demonstrated that the inclusion complex could significantly increase the solubility of ITZ up to 4-fold compared to the pure drug. Furthermore, an ocular drug delivery system was developed through dissolving microneedle (DMN) using polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as polymeric substances. The evaluation results of DMN inclusion complexes (ITZ-IC-DMN) showed excellent mechanical strength and insertion ability. In addition, ITZ-IC-DMN can dissolve rapidly upon application. The ex vivo permeation study revealed that 75.71% (equivalent to 3.79 ± 0.21 mg) of ITZ was permeated through the porcine cornea after 24 h. Essentially, ITZ-IC-DMN exhibited no signs of irritation in the HET-CAM study, indicating its safety for application. In conclusion, this study has successfully developed an inclusion complex formulation containing ITZ using β-CD in the DMN system. This approach holds promise for enhancing the solubility and bioavailability of ITZ through ocular administration.

Curcumin-loaded soluplus® based ternary solid dispersions with enhanced solubility, dissolution and antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory activities. Heliyon 2024; 10:e34636. [PMID: 39130422 PMCID: PMC11315136 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e34636] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Revised: 07/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) has emerged to be an outstanding strategy among multiple options available for improving solubility and consequently biological activity. Interestingly several binary SD systems continue to exhibit insufficient solubility over time. Therefore, the goal of current research was to design ternary amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) of hydrophobic model drug curcumin (CUR) to enhance the solubility and dissolution rate in turn, presenting enhanced anti-bacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. For this purpose several ternary solid dispersions (TSDs) consisting of Soluplus®, Syloid® XDP 3150, Syloid® 244 and Poloxamer® 188 in combination with HPMC E5 (binary carrier) were prepared using solvent evaporation method. Both solubility and dissolution testing of prepared solid dispersion were performed to determine the increase in solubility and dissolution. Solid state investigation was carried out utilizing infrared spectroscopy, also known as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM),Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD).Optimized formulations were also tested for their biological effectiveness including anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Amid all Ternary formulations F3 entailing 20 % soluplus® remarkably improved the solubility (186 μg/ml ± 3.95) and consequently dissolution (91 % ± 3.89 %) of curcumin by 3100 and 9 fold respectively. These finding were also supported by FTIR, SEM, XRD and DSC. In-vitro antibacterial investigation of F3 also demonstrated significant improvement in antibacterial activity against both gram positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus) and gram negative (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli) bacteria. Among all the tested strains Staphylococcus aureus was found to be most susceptible with a zone of inhibition of 24 mm ± 2.87. Antioxidant activity of F3 was also notably enhanced (93 % ± 5.30) in contrast to CUR (69 % ± 4.79). In vitro anti-inflammatory assessment also exhibited that F3 markedly protected BSA (bovine serum albumin) from denaturation with percent BSA inhibition of 80 % ± 3.16 in comparison to CUR (49 % ± 2.91). Hence, F3 could be an effective solid dispersion system for the delivery of model hydrophobic drug curcumin.

Abstract
Many drug candidates fail to complete the entire drug development process because of poor physicochemical properties. Solubility is an important physicochemical property which plays a vital role in various stages of drug discovery and development. Several methods have been proposed to enhance the solubility of drugs, and complex formation with cyclodextrins is among them. Beta-cyclodextrin (βCD) is a common excipient for solubilization of drugs. The aim of this study is to develop the mechanistic QSPR models to predict the solubility enhancement of a drug in the presence of βCD. In this study, the solubility enhancement of some drugs in the presence of 10mM βCD at 25°C was experimentally determined or collected from the literature. Two different models to predict the solubilization by βCD were developed by binary logistic regression using structural properties of drugs with more than 80% accuracy. Polar surface area and excess molar refraction are the main parameters for estimating solubilization by βCD. Moreover, other descriptors related to hydrophobicity and the capability of hydrogen bonding formation of molecules could improve the accuracy of the established models.

Abstract
Chitosan nanocapsules containing polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) concentrates from tuna oil, with EPA + DHA contents around 57% (w/w), were developed by emulsification process, using different chitosan concentration (1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, w/v) and stirring speed (10,000, 15,000, 20,000 rpm). The effects of these parameters on particle size and zeta potential were evaluated. The physical and oxidative stabilities were used to measure the product quality during storage. Chitosan concentration, stirring speed and its interaction significantly affected (p < 0.05) the particle size. In addition, chitosan concentration significantly affected (p < 0.05) the zeta potential of nanocapsules emulsion. Based on the results of physical and oxidative stabilities, the nanocapsules were stable for 30 days under refrigeration temperature (7 °C), and with 1.5-2% chitosan resulted in improved protection against oil oxidation. The nanocapsules produced with 2% chitosan and 10,000 rpm showed the lowest variations of polydispersity index and nanocapsules size after 30 days of storage (221.8 ± 3.0 nm). These conditions can be considered the most suitable to produce nanocapsules of PUFA concentrates from tuna oil using chitosan as wall material. These nanocapsules showed physical characteristics and oxidative stability, which could enable their application in the food industry, representing an important source of EPA and DHA fatty acids.

Abstract
Despite having a wide range of therapeutic advantages, glycyrrhizin (GL) has few commercial applications due to its poor aqueous solubility. In this study, we combined the benefits of hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (HP-βCD) supramolecular inclusion complexes and electrospun nanofibers to improve the solubility and therapeutic potential of GL. A molecular inclusion complex containing GL and HP-βCD was prepared by lyophilization at a 1:2 molar ratio. GL and hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes were also incorporated into hyaluronic acid (HA) nanofibers. Prepared NF was analyzed for physical, chemical, thermal, and pharmaceutical properties. Additionally, a rat model of carrageenan-induced hind paw edema and macrophage cell lines was used to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of GL-HP-βCD NF. The DSC and XRD analyses clearly showed the amorphous state of GL in nanofibers. In comparison to pure GL, GL-HP-βCD NF displayed improved release (46.6 ± 2.16% in 5 min) and dissolution profiles (water dissolvability ≤ 6 s). Phase solubility results showed a four-fold increase in GL solubility in GL-HP-βCD NF. In vitro experiments on cell lines showed that inflammatory markers like IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 were significantly lower in GL-HP-βCD NF compared to pure GL (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05). According to in vivo results, the prepared nanofiber exhibits a better anti-inflammatory effect than pure GL (63.4% inhibition vs 53.7% inhibition). The findings presented here suggested that GL-HP-βCD NF could serve as a useful strategy for improving the therapeutic effects of GL.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemistry introduces us to the macrocyclic host cyclodextrin, which has a hydrophobic cavity. The hydrophobic cavity has a higher affinity for hydrophobic guest molecules and forms host-guest complexation with non-covalent interaction. Three significant cyclodextrin kinds are α-cyclodextrin, β-cyclodextrin, and γ-cyclodextrin. The most often utilized is β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). An effective weapon against bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics is cyclodextrin. Several different kinds of cyclodextrin nanocarriers (β-CD, HP-β-CD, Meth-β-CD, cationic CD, sugar-grafted CD) are utilized to enhance the solubility, stability, dissolution, absorption, bioavailability, and permeability of the antibiotics. Cyclodextrin also improves the effectiveness of antibiotics, antimicrobial peptides, metallic nanoparticles, and photodynamic therapy (PDT). Again, cyclodextrin nanocarriers offer slow-release properties for sustained-release formulations where steady-state plasma antibiotic concentration is needed for an extended time. A novel strategy to combat bacterial resistance is a stimulus (pH, ROS)-responsive antibiotics released from cyclodextrin carrier. Once again, cyclodextrin traps autoinducer (AI), a crucial part of bacterial quorum sensing, and reduces virulence factors, including biofilm formation. Cyclodextrin helps to minimize MIC in particular bacterial strains, keep antibiotic concentrations above MIC in the infection site and minimize the possibility of antibiotic and biofilm resistance. Sessile bacteria trapped in biofilms are more resistant to antibiotic therapy than bacteria in a planktonic form. Cyclodextrin also involves delivering antibiotics to biofilm and resistant bacteria to combat bacterial resistance.

Abstract
BCS class II drugs exhibit low aqueous solubility and high permeability. Such drugs often have an incomplete or erratic absorption profile. This study aimed to predict the effects of β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and different hydrophilic polymers (poloxamer 188 (PXM-188), polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and soluplus (SOLO)) on the saturated solubility and dissolution profile of hydrophobic model drug rivaroxaban (RIV). Binary inclusion complex with βCD were prepared by kneading and solvent evaporation method, at drug to cyclodextrin weight molar ratios of 1:1, 1:2, and 1:4. Saturated solubility of the hydrophobic model moiety was evaluated with βCD to explore the increment in saturated solubility. Dissolution test was carried out to assess the drug release from the produced binary inclusion complex in the aqueous medium. Solid state analysis was performed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. When compared to pure drug, the binary complex (Drug: βCD at molar ratio of 1:2 w/w) demonstrated the best performance in terms of enhanced solubility and drug release. Furthermore, ternary inclusion complex was prepared with hydrophilic polymers SOLO, PVP K-30 and PXM-188 at 0.5%,1%,2.5%,5% and 10% w/w to optimized binary formulation RIV:βCD (1:2) prepared by kneading (KN) and solvent evaporation (S.E) method. The findings demonstrated that among ternary formulations (1:2 Drug: βCD: SOLO 10% S.E) manifested greatest improvement in saturated solubility and dissolution rate. Results of solubility enhancement and improvement in dissolution profile of model drug by ternary inclusion complexation were also supported by FTIR, DSC, XRD, and SEM analysis. So, it can be concluded that the ternary inclusion systems were more effective compared to the binary combinations in improving solubility as well as dissolution of hydrophobic model drug rivaroxaban.

Abstract
β-Cyclodextrin/ibuprofen inclusion complex was synthesized by freeze-drying method and characterized for phase solubility profiles, infrared spectra, thermal analysis, and X-ray powder diffractograms. The inclusion complex with HP-β-CD, as confirmed by molecular dynamics simulations, enhanced the aqueous solubility of ibuprofen by almost 30-fold compared to ibuprofen alone. Different grades of Carbopol (Carbopol 934P/Carbopol 974P/Carbopol 980 NF/Carbopol Ultrez 10 NF) and cellulose derivatives (HPMC K100M/HPMC K15M/HPMC K4M/HPMC E15LV/HPC) were evaluated for mucoadhesive gels incorporating the inclusion complex. The central composite design generated by Design-Expert was employed to optimize the mucoadhesive gel using two independent variables (a varying combination of two gelling agents) on three dependent variables (drug content and in vitro drug release at 6 h and 12 h). Except for the methylcellulose-based gels, most of the gels (0.5%, 0.75%, and 1% alone or as a mixture thereof) exhibited an extended-release of ibuprofen, ranging from 40 to 74% over 24 h and followed the Korsmeyer-Peppas kinetics model. Using this test design, 0.95% Carbopol 934P and 0.55% HPC-L formulations were optimized to increase ibuprofen release, enhance mucoadhesion, and be non-irritating in ex vivo chorioallantoic membrane studies. The present study successfully developed a mucoadhesive gel containing the ibuprofen-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex with sustained release.

Int J Pharm 2023; 638:122912. [PMID: 37015296 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.122912] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/06/2023]
Abstract
The goal was to scrutinize niosomes as potential carriers for enhanced efficacy of norfloxacin against Toxoplasma gondii RH strain. This was assessed in vitro and in vivo. Standard niosomes of Span 60 and cholesterol were prepared. Gelucire 48/16 or Tween 80 was incorporated as hydrophilic fluidizer. The prepared vesicles were characterized for shape, size, viscosity and norfloxacin release. The in vitro anti-Toxoplasma was assessed by monitoring tachyzoites viability after incubation with niosomes. In vivo efficacy of niosomes encapsulated norfloxacin was evaluated on infected mice. Transmission electron micrographs showed nano-sized spherical vesicles. Norfloxacin release varied with niosomal composition to show faster liberation in presence of fluidizing agent. The half maximum effective concentration of norfloxacin against tachyzoites (EC50) was significantly reduced after niosomal encapsulation compared with simple drug solution with no significant difference between vesicular formulations. Tachyzoite count in the peritoneal fluid of infected mice was reduced by 45.2, 90.8, 88.3 and 84% after treatment with simple drug dispersion, standard niosomes, Gelucire containing and Tween containing vesicles, respectively compared to infected untreated mice. These results correlate with the in vitro data and reflects the efficacy of niosomes. The study introduced surfactant vesicles as a tool for enhanced efficacy of norfloxacin against toxoplasma.

Abstract
Piroxicam (PRM) and meloxicam (MEL) are two nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, belonging to the Biopharmaceutics Classification System Class II drugs. In this study, six novel pharmaceutical salts of PRM and MEL with three basic organic counterions, that is, 4-aminopyridine (4AP), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (4DMP), and piperazine (PPZ), were prepared by both slurrying and slow evaporation. These salts were characterized by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. All six salts, especially MEL-4DMP and MEL-4AP, showed a significantly improved apparent solubility and dissolution rate in sodium phosphate solution compared with the pure APIs. Notably, PRM-4AP and PRM-4DMP salts exhibited enhanced fluorescence, and the PRM-PPZ salt showed weaker fluorescence compared with that of pure PRM due to different luminescence mechanisms.

Abstract
The skeletal muscle progenitors’ proliferation and migration are crucial stages of myogenesis. Identifying drug candidates that contribute to myogenesis can have a positive impact on atrophying muscle. The purpose of the study is to synthesize the Antrodia cinnamomea (AC)-β-cyclodextrin (BCD) inclusion complex (IC) and understand its in vitro pro-regenerative influence in murine skeletal C2C12 myoblasts. The IC was subjected to various nano-characterization studies. Fluorescent IC was synthesized to understand the cellular uptake of IC. Furthermore, 25 µg/mL, 12.5 µg/mL, and 6.25 µg/mL of IC were tested on murine C2C12 skeletal muscle cells for their anti-inflammatory, pro-migratory, and pro-proliferative action. The cellular internalization of IC occurred rapidly via pinocytosis. IC (252.6 ± 3.2 nm size and −37.24 ± 1.55 surface charge) exhibited anti-inflammatory action by suppressing the secretion of interleukin-6 and enhanced cell proliferation with promising cytocompatibility. A 12.5 μg/mL dose of IC promoted cell migration in 24 h, but the same dose of AC significantly reduced cell migration, suggesting modification by BCD. Molecular studies revealed that IC promoted C2C12 myoblasts migration by upregulating long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) NEAT-1, SYISL, and activating the pPKC/β-catenin pathway. Our study is the first report on the pro-proliferative and pro-migratory effects of BCD-modified extracts of AC.

Abstract
Azithromycin (AZM), a macrolide antibiotic used for the treatment of chlamydial conjunctivitis, is less effective for the treatment of this disease due to its poor bioavailability (38%). Various alternatives have been developed for improving the physicochemical properties (i.e., solubility) of the AZM without much success. To overcome the problems associated with AZM, an inclusion complex employing a modified cyclodextrin, i.e., sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD), was prepared and characterized by phase solubility studies and PXRD techniques. The results portrayed the formation of an inclusion complex of AZM with SBE-β-CD in 1:2 molar stoichiometric ratios. This inclusion complex was later incorporated into a polymer matrix to prepare an in situ gel. Various combinations of Carbopol 934P and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC K4M) polymers were used and evaluated by rheological and in vitro drug release studies. The optimized formulation (F4) containing Carbopol 934P (0.2% w/v) and HPMC K4M (0.2% w/v) was evaluated for clarity, pH, gelling capacity, drug content, rheological properties, in vitro drug release pattern, ocular irritation test, and antimicrobial efficacy. Finally, owing to the improved antimicrobial efficacy and increased residence time, the AZM:SBE-β-CD in situ gel was found to be a promising formulation for the efficient treatment of bacterial ocular disease.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are a family of cyclic oligosaccharides, consisting of a macrocyclic ring of glucose subunits linked by α-1,4 glycosidic bonds. The shape of CD molecules is similar to a truncated cone with a hydrophobic inner cavity and a hydrophilic surface, which allows the formation of inclusion complexes with various molecules. This review article summarises over 200 reports published by the end of 2021 that discuss the complexation of CDs with antibiotics and antibacterial agents, including beta-lactams, tetracyclines, quinolones, macrolides, aminoglycosides, glycopeptides, polypeptides, nitroimidazoles, and oxazolidinones. The review focuses on drug-delivery applications such as improving solubility, modifying the drug-release profile, slowing down the degradation of the drug, improving biological membrane permeability, and enhancing antimicrobial activity. In addition to simple drug/CD combinations, ternary systems with additional auxiliary substances have been described, as well as more sophisticated drug-delivery systems including nanosponges, nanofibres, nanoparticles, microparticles, liposomes, hydrogels, and macromolecules. Depending on the desired properties of the drug product, an accelerated or prolonged dissolution profile can be achieved when combining CD with antibiotics or antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
The poor solubility and stability of 6-gingerol (6-G) could hamper its clinical applications. The aim of the current study was to develop a novel ultra-deformable cyclodextrin-functionalized transethoniosomes (CD-TENs) as a promising delivery system for 6-G. Transethoniosomes (TENs) are flexible niosomes (NVs) due to their content of ethanol and edge activators (EAs). CD-functionalized nanoparticles could improve drug solubility and stability compared to the corresponding nanovesicles. 6-G-loaded ethoniosomes (ENs) were formulated by the ethanol injection technique in the presence and absence of EA and CD to explore the impact of the studied independent variables on entrapment efficiency (EE%) and % 6-G released after 24 h (Q24h). According to the desirability criteria, F8 (CD-functionalized transethoniosomal formula) was selected as the optimized formulation. F8 demonstrated higher EE%, permeation, deformability and stability than the corresponding TENs, ENs and NVs. Additionally, F8 showed higher cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory activity than pure 6-G. The synergism between complexation with CD and novel ultra-deformable nanovesicles (TENs) in the form of CD-TENs can be a promising drug delivery carrier for 6-G.

Abstract
Globally, cancer is the second most common cause of death, and Europe accounts for almost 25% of the global cancer burden, although its people make up only 10% of the world’s population. Conventional systemically administered anti-cancer drugs come with important drawbacks such as inefficiency due to poor bioavailability and improper biodistribution, severe side effects associated with low therapeutic indices, and the development of multidrug resistance. Therefore, smart nano-engineered targeted drug-delivery systems with tailored pharmacokinetics and biodistribution which can selectively deliver anti-cancer agents directly to the tumor site are the solution to most difficulties encountered with conventional therapeutic tools. Here, we report on the synthesis, physicochemical characterization, and in vitro evaluation of biocompatibility and anti-tumor activity of novel magnetically targetable SPIONs based on magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles’ surface modified with β-cyclodextrin (CD) and paclitaxel (PTX)–guest–host inclusion complexes (Fe3O4@β-CD/PTX). Both pristine Fe3O4@β-CD nanopowders and PTX-loaded thin films fabricated by MAPLE technique were investigated. Pristine Fe3O4@β-CD and Fe3O4@β-CD/PTX thin films were physicochemically characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The biocompatibility of bare magnetic nanocomposite thin films was evaluated by MTT cell viability assay on a normal 3T3 osteoblast cell line culture and by measuring the level of NO in the culture medium. No significant modifications, neither in cell viability nor in NO level, could be observed, thereby demonstrating the excellent biocompatibility of the SPIONs thin films. Inverted phase-contrast microscopy showed no evident adverse effect on the morphology of normal osteoblasts. On the other hand, Fe3O4@β-CD/PTX films decreased the cell viability of the MG-63 osteosarcoma cell line by 85%, demonstrating excellent anti-tumor activity. The obtained results recommend these magnetic hybrid films as promising candidates for future delivery, and hyperthermia applications in cancer treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Albendazole (ABZ) is the drug of choice for the treatment of a variety of human and veterinary parasites. However, it has low aqueous solubility and low bioavailability. Cyclodextrins (CD) are pharmaceutical excipients with the ability to modulate the solubilization property of hydrophobic molecules. OBJECTIVE To analyze (Autodock Vina software and CycloMolder platform) the formation of inclusion complexes between ABZ, β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and its derivatives, Methyl-β-cyclodextrin (M-β-CD) and Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), through in vitro and in silico studies. METHODS The most stable inclusion complexes were produced by the kneading method and characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), determination of the ABZ content, and in vitro dissolution profile. RESULTS Molecular modeling revealed that inclusion complexes between HP-β-CD:ABZ (in the proportion 1:1 and 2:1) presented the lowest formation energy and the highest number of intermolecular interactions, showing that the use of more cyclodextrins does not provide any gain in the stability of the complex. Through the characterization tests, the complexes experimentally obtained by kneading method demonstrated a highly suggestive method, including ABZ in HP-β-CD in both molar proportions; The results of this study showed suppression of bands in the infrared spectrum, displacement of the drug's melting temperature in DSC, crystallinity halos instead of the characteristic peaks of ABZ crystals in the XRD and a release of more than 80% of ABZ in less than 5 minutes, beyond dissolution efficiency of up to 92%. CONCLUSION In silico studies provided a rational selection of the appropriate cyclodextrin, enabling the elaboration of more targeted complexes, decreasing time and costs to elaborate on new formulations that increase the oral biodisponibility of ABZ.

The effect of drug loading on the properties of abiraterone-hydroxypropyl beta cyclodextrin solid dispersions processed by solvent free KinetiSol® technology. Eur J Pharm Biopharm 2021; 165:52-65. [PMID: 33979662 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2021.05.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2021] [Revised: 04/27/2021] [Accepted: 05/02/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Abiraterone is a poorly water-soluble drug used in the treatment of prostate cancer. In our previous study, we reported that KinetiSol® processed solid dispersions (KSDs) based on hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (HPBCD) showed improved dissolution and pharmacokinetics of abiraterone. However, the nature of abiraterone-HPBCD interaction within the KSDs or the effect of drug loading on the physicochemical properties and in vivo performance of HPBCD-based KSDs remain largely unknown. We hypothesize that KinetiSol technology can prepare abiraterone-HPBCD complexes within KSDs and that increasing the drug loading beyond an optimal point reduces the in vitro and in vivo performance of these KSDs. To confirm our hypothesis, we developed KSDs with 10-50% w/w drug loading and analyzed them using X-ray diffractometry and modulated differential scanning calorimetry. We found that KSDs containing 10-30% drug were amorphous. Interestingly, two-dimensional solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance and Raman spectroscopy indicated that the abiraterone-HPBCD complexes were formed. At elevated temperatures, the 10% and 20% drug-loaded KSDs were physically stable, while the 30% drug-loaded KSD showed recrystallization of abiraterone. In vitro dissolution and in vivo pharmacokinetic performances improved as the drug loading decreased; we attribute this to increased noncovalent interactions between abiraterone and HPBCD at lower drug loadings. Overall, the 10% drug loaded KSD showed a dissolution enhancement of 15.7-fold compared to crystalline abiraterone, and bioavailability enhancement of 3.9-fold compared to the commercial abiraterone acetate tablet Zytiga®. This study is first to confirm that KinetiSol, a high-energy, solvent-free technology, is capable of forming abiraterone-HPBCD complexes. Furthermore, in terms of in vitro and in vivo performance, a 10% drug load is optimal.

Abstract
The use of PLGA in the pharmaceutical industry has only increased as we move towards more and more advanced delivery carrier systems. The qualities of PLGA like biocompatibility, biodegradability and a tunable degradation and drug release has only helped in keeping up the release requirements desired for various delivery platforms. Fine-tuning the release and degradation rate is gaining more and more attention as researchers keep pushing the boundaries of novel delivery carriers. Various experiments are being performed to understand the degradation behavior drug of PLGA under various physiological and process-related conditions. The understanding of these parameters has helped formulate various ways one can fine-tune the properties that can lead to the release of active ingredients encapsulated within. Various techniques have been tried and tested including modifications like chemical modifications, physical blending and surface modifications and have found to be effective means of release modulation in delivery systems like parenteral, orals, topicals and tissue engineering scaffolds. In this review, all these experiments and implications thereon have been discussed in detail.

Abstract
Patients suffering from dysphagia have trouble in swallowing conventional oral dosage forms and there is also risk of choking, which may cause patient noncompliance. This study aimed to develop an orodispersible film (ODF) containing cefixime trihydrate (CFX) to cope with the above-mentioned problems as well as to enhance water solubility and masking the bitter taste of the drug. The freeze-drying and kneading methods were used for the formation of inclusion complexes. The physicochemical evaluation revealed that T7 was the best film for the incorporation of pure drug and inclusion complexes. Films were further characterized for physical and mechanical properties. Drug content, dissolving time of the film and drug release tests were performed. In vivo taste and disintegration time studies were also conducted in healthy human volunteers. FTIR spectra of the individual ingredients and prepared formulations have confirmed the chemical compatibilities of the ingredients. The solubility of CFX was increased by complexation with β-CD and optimized freeze-dried inclusion complex (FD1) was selected for the formation of ODF. C4 was selected as an optimized film for the delivery of CFX as this film has released 95.52% drug at the end of 10 min. Dissolution kinetics of FD1 showed that it followed zero-order kinetics while drug release from films, exhibits first-order kinetics; however, both showed non-Fickian transport. In vivo taste evaluation revealed that taste was masked by inclusion complexation with β-CD. However, selected ingredients and employed methodology enabled to formulate film, capable of delivering taste-masked CFX with improved solubility and better patient compliance.

Abstract
The present study was designed to formulate and develop fast disintegrating pellets of poorly soluble model drug (cilostazol) by reducing the proportion of micro-crystalline cellulose with pre-gelatinized starch (PGS), lactose and chitosan. The bioavailability enhancement of a model drug was achieved by preparing inclusion complex with Captisol® (Sulfobutyl Ether β cyclodextrin - SBE-β-CD). Extrusion-spheronization technique was used to formulate pellets. Placket-Burman design was used for the initial screening of most significant factors such as screen size (mm), ratio of micro crystalline cellulose: PGS + lactose + chitosan and % of HPMC which affects pellet properties. The inclusion complex of drug and Captisol® (SBE-β-CD) was prepared by Solvent Evaporation method and were incorporated into pellets in a predefined proportion. Formulation was optimized by using 32 full factorial design, the optimized batch was selected on the basis of dependent variables such as % yield, pellet size, disintegration time and % Cumulative drug release (%CDR), the obtained results were 87.15%, 0.75 mm, 13 min and 91.024% respectively. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) study revealed no significant interaction between drug and polymer. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed uniform and spherical shaped pellets having pores on the surface which facilitates wicking action and fast disintegrating property of pellets. A design space was constructed to meet the desirable target and optimized batch. The scope of study can further extended to hydrophobic molecules which may useful due to rapid disintegration and enhanced dissolution rate.

Abstract
The discovery of new drugs and dosage forms for the treatment of neglected tropical diseases, such as human and animal leishmaniasis, is gaining interest in the chemical, biological, pharmaceutical, and medical fields. Many pharmaceutical companies are exploring the use of old drugs to establishing new drug dosage forms and drug delivery systems, in particular for use in neglected diseases. The formation of complexes with cyclodextrins is widely used to improve the stability, solubility, and bioavailability of pharmaceutical drugs, as well as reduce both the toxicity and side effects of many of these drugs. The aim of this study was to characterize solid compounds obtained from the association between furazolidone (FZD) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) or hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD). The solid compounds were prepared in molar ratios of 1:1 and 1:2 (drug:CD) by kneading and lyophilization. Molecular docking was used to predict the preferred relative orientation of FZD when bound in both studied cyclodextrins. The resulting solid compounds were qualitatively characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermal analysis (DSC and TG/DTG), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy with image mapping (Raman mapping), and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (13C NMR) in the solid state. The cytotoxicity of the compounds against THP-1 macrophages and the 50% growth inhibition (IC50) against Leishmania amazonensis promastigote forms were subsequently investigated using in vitro techniques. For all of the solid compounds obtained, the existence of an association between FZD and CD were confirmed by one or more characterization techniques (TG/DTG, DSC, SEM, XRD, RAMAN, and 13C NMR), particularly by a significant decrease in the crystallinity of these materials and a reduction in the melting enthalpy associated with furazolidone thermal events. The formation of more effective interactions occurred in the compounds prepared by lyophilization, in a 1:2 molar ratio of the two CDs studied. However, the formation of an inclusion complex was confirmed only for the solid compound obtained from HP-β-CD prepared by lyophilization (LHFZD1:2). The absence of cytotoxicity on the THP-1 macrophage lineages and the leishmanicidal activity were confirmed for all compounds. MHFZD1:2 and LHFZD1:2 were found to be very active against promastigote forms of L. amazonensis, while all others were considered only active. These results are in line with the literature, demonstrating the existence of biological activity for associations between drugs and CDs in the form of complexes and non-complexes. All solid compounds obtained were found to be promising for use as leishmanicidal agents against promastigote forms of L. amazonensis.

Abstract
The effects of three hydrophilic polymers, namely, carboxymethyl cellulose sodium (CMC-Na), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and poloxamer-188 (PXM-188) on the solubility and dissolution of diflunisal (DIF) in complexation with β-cyclodextrin (βCD) or hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD), were investigated. The kneading method was used at different drug to cyclodextrin weight ratios. Increases in solubility and drug release were observed with the DIF/βCD and DIF/HPβCD complexes. The addition of hydrophilic polymers at 2.5, 5.0 and 10.0% w/w markedly improved the complexation and solubilizing efficiency of βCD and HPβCD. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) showed that DIF was successfully included into the cyclodextrin cavity. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD) confirmed stronger drug amorphization and entrapment in the molecular cage of cyclodextrins. The addition of PVA, CMC-Na or PXM-188 reduced further the intensity of the DIF endothermic peak. Most of the sharp and intense peaks of DIF disappeared with the addition of hydrophilic polymers. In conclusion, PXM-188 at a weight ratio of 10.0% w/w was the best candidate in enhancing the solubility, stability and release of DIF.

Abstract
The development of orodispersible tablets (ODTs) for poorly soluble and poorly flowable drugs via direct compression is still a challenge. This work aimed to develop ODTs of poorly soluble drugs by combining cyclodextrins that form inclusion complexes to improve wetting and release properties, and directly compressible co-processed excipients able to promote rapid disintegration and solve the poor flowability typical of inclusion complexes. Carbamazepine (CBZ) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) were used, respectively, as a model of a poorly soluble drug with poor flowability and as a solubilizing agent. Specifically, CBZ-an antiepileptic and anticonvulsant drug-may benefit from the studied formulation approach, since some patients have swallowing difficulties or fear of choking and are non-cooperative. Prosolv® ODT G2 and F-Melt® type C were the studied five-in-one co-processed excipients. The complex was prepared by kneading. Flow properties of all materials and main properties of the tablets were characterized. The obtained results showed that ODTs containing CBZ/HPβCD complex can be prepared by direct compression through the addition of co-processed excipients. The simultaneous use of co-processing and cyclodextrin technologies rendered ODTs with an in vitro disintegration time in accordance with the European Pharmacopoeia requirement and with a fast and complete drug dissolution. In conclusion, the combination of five-in-one co-processed excipients and hydrophilic cyclodextrins may help addressing the ODT formulation of poorly soluble drugs with poor flowability, by direct compression and with desired release properties.

Abstract
Alternariol is an Alternaria mycotoxin that appears in fruits, tomatoes, oilseeds, and corresponding products. Chronic exposure to it can induce carcinogenic and xenoestrogenic effects. Cyclodextrins (CDs) are ring-shaped molecules built up by glucose units, which form host–guest type complexes with some mycotoxins. Furthermore, insoluble CD polymers seem suitable for the extraction/removal of mycotoxins from aqueous solutions. In this study, the interactions of alternariol with β- and γ-CDs were tested by employing fluorescence spectroscopic and modeling studies. Moreover, the removal of alternariol from aqueous solutions by insoluble β-CD bead polymer (BBP) was examined. Our major observations/conclusions are the following: (1) CDs strongly increased the fluorescence of alternariol, the strongest enhancement was induced by the native γ-CD at pH 7.4. (2) Alternariol formed the most stable complexes with the native γ-CD (logK = 3.2) and the quaternary ammonium derivatives (logK = 3.4–3.6) at acidic/physiological pH and at pH 10.0, respectively. (3) BBP effectively removed alternariol from aqueous solution. (4) The alternariol-binding ability of β-CD polymers was significantly higher than was expected based on their β-CD content. (5) CD technology seems a promising tool to improve the fluorescence detection of alternariol and/or to develop new mycotoxin binders to decrease alternariol exposure.

Abstract
Glaucocalyxin A (GLA), is a diterpenoid extracted from Hara and has been studied for decades for its diverse bioactivities. However, GLA presents poor solubility in water and low bioavailability through oral administration which has hindered its application in the clinic. So in this study, we prepared the inclusion complex of GLA in SBE-β-CD by ultrasound method and evaluated its antitumor effect and cytotoxic effect on cancer cells. The production of GLA-SBE-β-CD inclusion complex was optimized using Box-Behnken design. The inhibitory effects of GLA and GLA-SBE-β-CD were investigated on the Hela, A549, HepG2, and SiHa cells in vitro by MTT staining assay. Pharmacokinetic studies were conducted on Sprague-Dawley mice via caudal injection to study the distribution, metabolism, and elimination of GLA-SBE-β-CD in vivo. Tumor-bearing nude mice were taken as the model and adopted to evaluate the inhibitory rate of GLA and GLA-SBE-β-CD on the transplanted tumor. A series of physical characterization results confirmed the fact that GLA-SBE-β-CD inclusion complex was successfully prepared. A production of 87.28% was achieved based on the Box-Behnken design. In the cancer cell inhibition studies, GLA and GLA-SBE-β-CD exhibited apparent concentration-dependent inhibitory actions on four kinds of tumor cells and better inhibition was achieved in GLA-SBE-β-CD group. The pharmacokinetic results showed that the duration of GLA in blood was prolonged and enhanced bioavailability was achieved. GLA and GLA-SBE-β-CD both showed an effective inhibition on the transplanted tumor growth, while the anti-tumor effect of GLA-SBE-β-CD (inhibitory rate of 45.80%) was significantly stronger than that of GLA (30.76%) based on the change of tumor weight and tumor volume.

Abstract
AIM Binary and ternary complexes with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD), using glutamic acid (GA), proline or lysine as the third component, were developed to increase the solubility and the dissolution rate of norfloxacin (NOR). METHODS/RESULTS Complexation was evaluated by phase solubility studies, obtaining the highest NOR solubility with GA and HPβCD. Thermal analysis suggested that different kinds of interactions occur among NOR, HPβCD and each amino acid, and when the systems were prepared by kneading or by means of freeze-drying technique. Dissolution studies, performed on simulated gastric fluid and subsequent simulated intestinal fluid, showed the highest rate of NOR from NOR-HPβCD-GA. CONCLUSION NOR:HPβCD:GA was the best approach for improving the bioavailability of NOR.

Abstract
Norfloxacin, an antibiotic that exists in different solid forms, has very unfavorable properties in terms of solubility and stability. Binary complexes of norfloxacin, in the solid form C, and β-cyclodextrin were procured by the kneading method and physical mixture. Their effect on the solubility, the dissolution rate, and the chemical and physical stability of norfloxacin was evaluated. To perform stability studies, the solid samples were stored under accelerated storage conditions, for a period of 6 months. Physical stability was monitored through powder X-ray diffraction, high-resolution 13C solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed evidence that the kneaded complex increased and modulated the dissolution rate of norfloxacin C. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that the photochemical stability was increased in the complex, without affecting its physical stability. The results point to the conclusion that the new kneading complex of norfloxacin constitutes an alternative tool to formulate a potential oral drug delivery system with improve oral bioavailability.

Abstract
Triclabendazole is the first-line drug of choice to treat and control fasciolasis, a neglected parasitic human disease. It is a class II/IV compound according to the Biopharmaceutics Classification System. Thus, the aim of this study was to improve aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of triclabendazole complexed with 2-hydroxylpropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and methyl-β-cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD) at 1:1 and 1:2 M ratio. The impact of storage on the solubility, dissolution profile, and solid-state properties of such complexes was also investigated. Drug-carrier interactions were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffractometry, and scanning electron microscopy. The solubility of triclabendazole improved up to 256- and 341-fold using HP-β-CD and Me-β-CD, respectively. In particular, the drug complexed with Me-β-CD showed a positive deviation from linearity, suggesting that its solubility increases with an increasing concentration of Me-β-CD concentration in a nonlinear manner. The drug dissolution was found to be improved through complex formation with HP-β-CD and Me-β-CD. In particular, the 1:2 M ratio complexes exhibited higher dissolution than the corresponding 1:1 M ratio complexes. The physicochemical characterization of the systems showed strong evidence of amorphous phases and/or of the formation of an inclusion complex. Stored at 25 °C, 60% RH for 24 months, drug complexed with β-cyclodextrins (CDs) at 1:2 M ratio remained amorphous. Based on these findings, it is postulated that the formation of triclabendazole-CD inclusion complexes produced significant enhancement in both the dissolution and solid-state properties of the drug, which may lead to the development of triclabendazole novel formulations with improved biopharmaceutical characteristics.

Abstract
Understanding the atomic level interactions and the resulting structural characteristics is required for developing beta-cyclodextrin (βCD) derivatives for pharmaceutical and other applications. The effect of four different solvents on the structures of the native βCD and its hydrophilic (methylated βCD; MEβCD and hydroxypropyl βCD; HPβCD) and hydrophobic derivatives (ethylated βCD; ETβCD) was explored using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and solvation free energy calculations. The native βCD, 2-MEβCD, 6-MEβCD, 2,6-DMβCD, 2,3,6-TMβCD, 6-HPβCD, 2,6-HPβCD and 2,6-ETβCD in non-polar solvents (cyclohexane; CHX and octane; OCT) were stably formed in a symmetric cyclic cavity shape through their intramolecular hydrogen bonds. In contrast, βCDs in polar solvents (methanol; MeOH and water; WAT) exhibited large structural changes and fluctuations leading to significant deformations of their cavities. Hydrogen bonding with polar solvents was found to be one of the major contributors to this behavior: solvent-βCD hydrogen bonding strongly competes with intramolecular bonding leading to significant changes in the structural stability of βCDs. An exception to this is the hydrophobic 2,6-ETβCD which retained its spherical cavity in all solvents. Based on this, it is proposed that the 2,6-ETβCD can act as a sustained release drug carrier.

Feasibility of Using Gluconolactone, Trehalose and Hydroxy-Propyl Gamma Cyclodextrin to Enhance Bendroflumethiazide Dissolution Using Lyophilisation and Physical Mixing Techniques. Pharmaceutics 2018; 10:pharmaceutics10010022. [PMID: 29389848 PMCID: PMC5874835 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics10010022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2017] [Revised: 01/22/2018] [Accepted: 01/24/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose: Hydrophobic drugs are facing a major challenge in dissolution rate enhancement and solubility in aqueous solutions; therefore, a variety of methods have been used to improve dissolution rate and/or solubility of bendroflumethiazide as a model hydrophobic drug. Methods: In this study, two main methods (physical mixing and lyophilisation) were used with gluconolactone, hydroxyl propyl γ-ccyclodextrin, and trehalose to explore this challenge. Bendroflumethiazide, practically insoluble in water, was mixed with one of the three excipients gluconolactone, hydroxyl propyl γ-cyclodextrin, and trehalose in three different ratios 1:1, 1:2, 1:5. To the best of our knowledge, the dissolution of the drug has not been previously enhanced by using either these methods or any of the used excipients. Samples containing drug and each of the excipients were characterized via dissolution testing, Fourier Transform infra-red spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and scanning electron microscopy. Results: The used methods showed a significant enhancement in dug dissolution rate; physical mixing significantly, p < 0.05, increased the percentage of the drug released with time; for example, bendroflumethiazide dissolution in distilled water was improved from less than 20% to 99.79% within 90 min for physically mixed drug-cyclodextrin 1:5. The lyophilisation process was enhanced and the drug dissolution rate and the highest drug dissolution was achieved for (drug-gluconolactone 1:1) with 98.98% drug release within 90 min. Conclusions: the physical mixing and freeze drying processes significantly increased the percentage of drug release with time.
