Graphene-silymarin-loaded chitosan/gelatin/hyaluronic acid hybrid constructs for advanced full-thickness burn wound management. Int J Pharm 2024; 659:124238. [PMID: 38768692 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124238] [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: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
Burn wounds (BWs) with extensive blood loss, along with bacterial infections and poor healing, may become detrimental and pose significant rehabilitation obstacles in medical facilities. Therefore, the freeze-drying method synthesized novel hemocompatible chitosan, gelatin, and hyaluronic acid infused with graphene oxide-silymarin (CGH-SGO) hybrid constructs for application as a BW patch. Most significantly, synthesized hybrid constructs exhibited an interconnected-porous framework with precise pore sizes (≈118.52 µm) conducive to biological functions. Furthermore, the FTIR and XRD analyses document the constructs' physiochemical interactions. Similarly, enhanced swelling ratios, adequate WVTR (736 ± 78 g m-2 hr-1), and bio-degradation rates were seen during the physiological examination of constructs. Following the in vitro investigations, SMN-GO added to constructs improved their anti-bacterial (against E.coli and S. aureus), anti-oxidant, hemocompatible, and bio-compatible characteristics in conjunction with prolonged drug release. Furthermore, in vivo, implanting constructs on wounds exhibited significant acceleration in full-thickness burn wound (FT-BW) healing on the 14th day (CGH-SGO: 95 ± 2.1 %) in contrast with the control (Gauze: 71 ± 4.2 %). Additionally, contrary to gauze, the in vivo rat tail excision model administered with constructs assured immediate blood clotting. Therefore, CGH-SGO constructs with an improved porous framework, anti-bacterial activity, hemocompatibility, and biocompatibility could represent an attractive option for healing FT-BWs.

Development of a rapid, sensitive, and selective LC-MS/MS method for quantifying curcumin levels in healthy human urine: Effect of pepper on curcumin bioavailability. Food Sci Nutr 2023; 11:7732-7741. [PMID: 38107126 PMCID: PMC10724617 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.3691] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Revised: 09/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Curcumin (CCM), a culinary spice, is widely consumed for its health benefits for managing oxidative and inflammatory conditions, metabolic syndrome, arthritis, and hyperlipidemia. However, due to its extensive metabolism, the oral bioavailability of CCM is very low. In this study, we developed a rapid, sensitive, and selective assay to examine the hypothesis that piperine improves CCM bioavailability after piperine co-ingestion. We developed a selective, sensitive, and robust LC-MS/MS method to quantify CCM in human urine. The method was linear over a concentration range 0.625-40 ng/mL with LLOQ and LLOD of 0.625 ng/mL and 0.312 ng/mL, respectively. Healthy volunteers have consumed test meals of CCM as turmeric powder with and without black pepper with 1 week wash out. Urine samples were collected for 24 hours and analyzed for CCM excretion. Black pepper increased CCM half-life from 2.2 ± 0.79 h (CCM alone) to 4.5 ± 0.80 h (CCM + pepper). The CCM 24-h urinary excreted amount was higher in individuals consuming CCM + pepper (218.14 ± 94.98 μg) than those who received CCM only (49.45 ± 12.94 μg). This preliminary study indicates that piperine significantly increased CCM oral absorption, reduced systemic clearance, and improved bioavailability.

Activated cascade effect for dual-mode ratiometric and smartphone-assisted visual detection of curcumin and F - based on nitrogen-doped carbon dots. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 872:162277. [PMID: 36801332 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.162277] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 02/11/2023] [Accepted: 02/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
The growing persistence of harmful ion or drug molecular residues has always been considered as a matter of concern due to its importance in biological and environmental processes, which requires taking measures to maintain environmental health sustainably and effectively. Inspired by the multi-system and visual quantitative detection of nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs), we develop a novel cascade nano-system based on dual emission carbon dots for on-site visual quantitative detection of curcumin and fluoride ion (F-). Herein, tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (Tris) and m-dihydroxybenzene (m-DHB) are elected as reaction precursors to synthesize dual-emission N-CDs by a one-step hydrothermal method. The obtained N-CDs exhibit dual emission peaks at 426 nm (blue) and 528 nm (green) with quantum yields of 53 % and 71 %, respectively. Then, trace curcumin and F- intelligent off-on-off sensing probe is formed by taking advantage of the activated cascade effect. As for the occurrence of inner filter effect (IFE) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), the green fluorescence of N-CDs quenches remarkably, called as OFF initial state. Then the curcumin-F- complex leads to the hypochromatic shift of the absorption band from 532 to 430 nm, which activates the green fluorescence of N-CDs, named as ON state. Meanwhile, the blue fluorescence of N-CDs is quenched due to the FRET, called as OFF terminal state. This system shows good linear relationships from 0 to 35 μM and 0 to 40 μM with low detection limits of 29 nM and 42 nM for curcumin and F- ratiometric detection, respectively. Moreover, a smartphone-assisted analyzer is developed for on-site quantitative detection. Furthermore, we design a logic gate for logistics information storage, which proves the possibility of a logic gate based on N-CDs in practical application. Thus, our work will provide an effective strategy for environmental quantitative monitoring and information storage encryption.

Milk Thistle Oilseed Cake Flour Fractions: A Source of Silymarin and Macronutrients for Gluten-Free Bread. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11102022. [PMID: 36290745 PMCID: PMC9598143 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11102022] [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: 09/21/2022] [Revised: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The utilization of plant by-products as functional food ingredients has received increasing attention in the last decade. One such by-product generated during milk thistle oil pressing is oilseed cakes, which could be used as a novel food ingredient. Therefore, the study aimed at investigating the effects of the addition of milk thistle oilseed cake (MTOC) flour fractions obtained via dry sieving, differing in particle size (unsieved; coarse: >710 µm; medium: 315−710 µm; and fine: <315 µm), on the quality of gluten-free bread and stability of silymarin during breadmaking. The 10% addition of the fractions into gluten-free bread increased the protein, fibre, fat, ash and silymarin content. The breads with the coarse fraction had the highest content of fibre, whereas the breads with the fine fraction excelled in protein, fat and ash content. The medium fraction was characterized as the richest source of silymarin, whilst the fine fraction was the poorest. Silymarin constituents were slightly released during dough rising but also partially decomposed during baking; moreover, silydianin was the most susceptible and degraded the most. The enriched breads had better sensory and textural properties compared to the control bread. The results suggest that MTOC flour fractions can improve the potential health benefits and nutritional profile of gluten-free bread.

Abstract
The study aim was to develop and validate a high-performance liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS) method to simultaneously determine glibenclamide (Gli) and silymarin (Sil) released from chitosan (CS) microparticles in aqueous solutions. The CS microparticles were synthesized using an ionic gelation method, and their morphology, swelling degree, encapsulation efficiency and active substance release were investigated. Gli and Sil were loaded in different concentrations, and their identification and quantification were performed using the HPLC-ESI-MS method, which was further validated. The drugs’ characteristic m/z was found in the higher intensity of retention time (Rt) (Gli, 8.909 min; Sil A, 5.41 min; and Sil B, 5.66 min). The method selectivity and precision are very good, and the blank solution proved no interference. The linearity of the answer function is very good for Sil A (R2 = 1), Sil B (R2 = 0.9998) and Gli (R2 = 0.9991). For Gli, we obtained a limit of detection (LOD) = 0.038 mg/mL and limit of quantification (LOQ) = 1.275 mg/mL; for Sil A, a LOD = 0.285 mg/mL and LOQ = 0.95 mg/mL; and for Sil B, a LOD = 0.045 mg/mL and LOQ = 0.15 mg/mL. A high-resolution HPLC-ESI-MS method was developed and validated, which allowed the simultaneous determination of Gli and Sil loaded in CS microparticles, in a concentration range of 0.025–1 mg/mL.

Abstract
Curcumin is a natural product that is frequently utilized in cancer prevention and treatment. The significant benefit of vegetable-derived nutraceuticals in combination with widespread cytostatic medication such as ponatinib is to reduce toxicity and side effects. In this paper, we focus the study on analytical quantification of ponatinib and curcumin through highly sensitive synchronous spectrofluorometric method. Applying this method at Δλ = 160 nm, each of ponatinib and curcumin could be measured at 303 and 412 nm without interference from each others. The diverse experimental factors impacting the performance of the method were studied and optimized. The method exhibited a reasonable linearity in the ranges of 5.0-60.0 and 10.0-200.0 ng/mL for ponatinib and curcumin, respectively with detection limits of 1.48 and 1.22 ng/mL and quantitation limits of 4.49 and 3.68 ng/mL, respectively. The anticipated method was employed for the assessment and evaluation of the studied drugs in the spiked human plasma samples. The mean % recoveries in plasma samples (n = 6) for each of ponatinib and curcumin were 99.84 ± 1.86 and 100.06 ± 2.72, accordingly. The developed method was validated in conformity with the requirements of International Council of Harmonization (ICH).

Abstract
A simple, precise, and accurate reversed-phase ultra-performance liquid chromatographic (UPLC) method was developed and validated for the determination of a mycophenolic acid-curcumin (MPA-CUR) conjugate in buffer solutions. Chromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column (2.1 × 50 mm id, 1.7 µm) with a gradient elution system of water and acetonitrile, each containing 0.1% formic acid, at a flow rate of 0.6 mL/min. The column temperature was controlled at 33 °C. The compounds were detected simultaneously at the maximum wavelengths of mycophenolic acid (MPA), 254 nm, and curcumin (CUR), or MPA-CUR, at 420 nm. The developed method was validated according to the ICH Q2(R1) guidelines. The linear calibration curves of the assay ranged from 0.10 to 25 μg/mL (r2 ≥ 0.995, 1/x2 weighting factor), with a limit of detection and a limit of quantitation of 0.04 and 0.10 μg/mL, respectively. The accuracy and precision of the developed method were 98.4-101.6%, with %CV < 2.53%. The main impurities from the specificity test were found to be MPA and CUR. Other validation parameters, including robustness and solution stability, were acceptable under the validation criteria. Forced degradation studies were conducted under hydrolytic (acidic and alkaline), oxidative, thermal, and photolytic stress conditions. MPA-CUR was well separated from MPA, CUR, and other unknown degradation products. The validated method was successfully applied in chemical kinetic studies of MPA-CUR in different buffer solutions.

Abstract
This study presents a pragmatic and easily scalable maceration-mediated liquid-liquid extraction (MMLLE) and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC)-based determination of Silybins from plant material (Curcuma longa L.). The processing of calibration standards revealed that the RP-HPLC method was linear over a concentration range of 1-100 μg/mL with regression coefficient (R2) > 0.9950, limit of detection 0.02 μg/mL and limit of quantification <0.07 μg/mL. The optimum chromatographic conditions resolved Silybin A, Silybin B, Isosilybin A and Isosilybin B within 5 min of analysis time. The reproducible recovery rates of spiked flavonolignans (96.24-115.40%) from quality controls established the effectiveness of MMLLE procedure prior to HPLC determination. The real-time analysis revealed the presence of silybins in C. longa roots. The results further endorse that MMLLE prior to chromatographic determination may provide a more pragmatic analytical solution for the analysis/isolation of silybins.

Abstract
In recent years, a great deal of attention has been paid to the combined use of multiple antitumor drugs for better cancer treatment. The aims of the study are to construct a nanoparticle drug delivery system for the co-delivery of irinotecan hydrochloride and curcumin and to develop an analytical method for simultaneously quantifying these molecules, which is essential for further studies of the co-delivered nano system. The irinotecan hydrochloride and curcumin co-delivered nanoparticle (ICN) were prepared by combinatorially entrapping them into polyethylene glycol-poly lactic acid-co-glycolic acid (PEG-PLGA) polymeric nanoparticles. A simple, sensitive and rapid high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed and validated to simultaneously quantify the compounds in the co-delivered nanoparticle system. Acetonitrile and ultrapure water containing sodium dodecyl sulfate (0.08 mol/L), disodium phosphate (Na2HPO4, 0.002 mol/L) and acetic acid (4%, v/v) were used as the mobile phase and their ratio was set at 50:50. The flow rate was set to 1.0 mL/min, and the temperature in the column oven was maintained at 40°C. The analysis was carried out at 256 and 424 nm to assess irinotecan hydrochloride and curcumin, respectively. Detectors with only one channel can also visualize both analytes in one chromatogram at 379 nm and still demonstrate acceptable sensitivity. The retention times for irinotecan hydrochloride and curium were 3.317 and 5.560 min, respectively. The method developed was confirmed to be sensitive, accurate (recovery, 100 ± 2%), precise (relative standard deviation, RSD ≤ 1%), robust and linear (R2 ≥ 0.9996) in the range from 2.05 to 1050 μg/mL. The presented method has been used to quantify irinotecan hydrochloride and curcumin in the co-delivered ICN nano system to assess the drug delivery quality of the nanoparticles and can also be used for routine analysis because of its simplicity and accuracy.

Abstract
A binary mixture of Silymarin (SR) and Vitamin E (VE) acetate, of an antioxidant and a hepatoprotective effect, has been analyzed using a sensitive, selective and economic high performance thin layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method in their pure forms, pharmaceutical formulation and spiked human plasma. SR and VE were separated on 60F254 silica gel plates using hexane:acetone:formic acid (7:3:0.15, v/v/v) as a developing system with UV detection at 215 nm. The method was evaluated for linearity, accuracy, precision, selectivity, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ). SR and VE were detected in the linear range of 0.2-2.5 and 0.2-4.5 μg/band, respectively. Method validation was done as per ICH guidelines and acceptable results of accuracy of 99.86 ± 1.190 and 100.22 ± 1.609 for SR and VE, respectively were obtained. The method has been successfully applied for determination of the studied drugs in their pharmaceutical formulation without any interference from excipients, and in spiked plasma samples. Results obtained by the developed HPTLC-densitometric method were statistically compared to those obtained by the reported HPLC methods and no significant difference was found between them.

Abstract
Curcumin widely exists in food, and rapid selective and accurate detection of curcumin have great significance in chemical industry. In this experiment, a new magnetic biocompatibility molecularly imprinted polymer was prepared with nontoxic and biocompatible Zein to adsorb curcumin selectively. The polymer has high biocompatibility, good adsorption capacity, and specific adsorption for curcumin. Combined with portable electrochemical workstations, the polymer can be used to detect curcumin rapidly and cost-effectively. Using curcumin as a template and Zein as the crosslinking agent, the polymers were synthesized on the surface of Fe3 O4 particles for solid phase extraction. The experimental results showed that the polymer reached large adsorption capacity (32.12 mg/g) with fast kinetics (20 min). The adsorption characteristic of the polymer followed the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. Hexacyanoferrate was used as electrochemical probe to generate signals, and the linear range was 5-200 µg/mL for measuring curcumin. The experimental analysis showed that the polymer was an ideal material for selective accumulation of curcumin from complex samples. This approach has been successfully applied to the determination of curcumin in food samples with electrochemical detection, indicating that this is a feasible and practical technique.

Abstract
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are the promising targets for cancer chemotherapy that cannot be eliminated by conventional chemotherapy. In this study cationic liposomes of cabazitaxel (CBX) and silibinin (SIL) were prepared with an aim to kill cancer cells and CSCs for prostate cancer. CBX act as cancer cell inhibitor and SIL as CSC inhibitor. Hyaluronic acid (HA), an endogenous anionic polysaccharide was coated on cationic liposomes for targeting CD44 receptors over expressed on CSCs. Liposomes were prepared by ethanol injection method with particle size below 100 nm and entrapment efficiency of more than 90% at 10% w/w drug loading. Liposomes were characterized by dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. Liposomes were evaluated for their anticancer action in androgen independent human prostate cancer cell lines (PC-3 and DU-145). HA coated liposomes showed potential cytotoxicity over other groups with low IC50, significantly inhibited cell migration and induced apoptosis. Synergistic cytotoxic effect was also observed with HA coated liposomes that resulted in colony formation inhibition and G2/M phase arrest. Proficient cytotoxicity against CD44+ cells (14.87 ± 0.41% in PC-3 and 33.95 ± 0.68% in DU-145 cells) indicated the efficiency of HA coated liposomes towards CSC targeting. Hence, the outcome of this combinational therapy with CD44 targeting indicates the suitability of HA coated CBX and SIL co-loaded liposomes as a potential approach for eradicating prostate cancer and herein might provide a insight for future studies.

Abstract
Curcumin, a natural compound extracted from turmeric (Curcuma longa), has been extensively studied because of its various pharmacological properties, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibiotic, antiprotozoal, immunomodulatory, anti-proliferative, antitumor, and anticarcinogenic effects. However, low solubility in aqueous media has limited its therapeutic applications. To overcome these bioavailability issues, the use of drug delivery systems providing localized or targeted delivery of this drug may represent a more viable therapeutic option. Several drug delivery systems have been shown to significantly enhance the therapeutic efficacy of curcumin. Additionally, a wide variety of analytical methods are available for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of curcumin in different matrices, including plant extracts, biological fluids, and drug delivery systems. There are a variety of methodologies to quantify curcumin, but chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques are the ones most commonly used. Thus, in this review, we evaluate the biological properties of curcumin, as well as its nanotechnology-based delivery systems and methods of analysis.

Abstract
Valsartan (VAL) and sacubitril (SAC) are combined in a supramolecular complex, LCZ696, which is a newly approved remedy for heart failure. SAC-related substance (biphenyl methyl pyrrolidinone [BMP]) which also appears as an intermediate during SAC synthesis is considered to be a suspected impurity for SAC and/or LCZ696 tablets. The study investigates the analysis of VAL and SAC in their supramolecular complex along with SAC-related substance, BMP, using high performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with two different detectors; fluorescence detector (FLD) and diode array detector (DAD). The work aimed at analyzing BMP at low levels in the presence of its parent drug, SAC. BMP was successfully analyzed at a level of 0.167, 1 and 3% of its parent drug, SAC upon using HPLC-FLD, HPLC-DAD and HPTLC, respectively. For HPLC-FLD, the detector was set at λex/λem (nm/nm): 0-4.5 min at 255/374; 4.5-6 min at 255/314, for achieving an adequate sensitivity of the method to monitor and quantify VAL and SAC in the presence of BMP. Low limits of detection (8.3, 3.3 and 1.7 ng mL-1) and limits of quantitation (25, 10 and 5 ng mL-1) values obtained for VAL, SAC and BMP, respectively, upon using FLD suggest that low level of baseline noise enables the detection and quantitation of low BMP concentration.

Abstract
Since time immemorial, turmeric has been widely marketed and consumed as dietary supplement due to its diverse medicinal properties. Curcuminoids-comprising a mixture of curcumin (CUR), demethoxycurcumin (DMC), and bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC)-are the prime bioactive constituents of turmeric. However, the usage of curcuminoids is limited by their chemical instability. The lack of information on comparative stability profiles of curcuminoids (in pure and mixture form) prompted us to study how pure curcuminoids and their mixtures behave under different stress degradation conditions. The order of stability of curcuminoids when exposed to acidic, alkaline, and oxidative degradation was found to be as follows: BDMC > DMC > CUR. While the pure and mixture forms of curcuminoids were stable against heat, they completely degraded upon exposure to sunlight. The degradation extent of curcuminoids (in mixture form) was substantially less as compared to their pure form; therefore, this suggested the synergistic stabilizing influence of DMC and BDMC in the curcuminoids' mixture.

Abstract
Curcumin is a natural yellow-orange pigment extracted from turmeric and is a potential substitute of health-dangerous artificial dyes. Nanoencapsulation in biodegradable polymers is a promising alternative to improve curcumin stability and water solubility but curcumin concentration inside the nanoparticles must be precisely known. A reliable method to determine the actual curcumin concentration must be validated since the validation procedures warrant that the method is adequate and sufficient for the specific application involved. This work describes the validation parameters given by the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines to adopt an analytical method based on Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy for the quantitative determination of curcumin encapsulated in poly(l-lactic acid) nanoparticles. This method was validated in respect to linearity, detection limit, quantification limit, accuracy and precision. Studies on the analytical procedure validation warranted safety in final results obtained for the curcumin concentration in the nanoparticles.
