Abstract
Hibiscus mutabilis L. is a Traditional Chinese Medicinal plant of significant value. However, there has been limited research focusing specifically on its flowers. In this study, we report the isolation of one novel and nine known flavonoids from the flowers of H. mutabilis L. The structures of these compounds were elucidated using chemical and comprehensive spectral analysis, involving 1D, 2D NMR, and HRESIMS. The novel compound was further evaluated for its anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activities using in vitro assays on RAW264.7 cells. Compound 1 at the concentration of 6.25 μM significantly inhibited the production of NO and TNF-α induced by LPS in RAW264.7 cells, exhibiting superior efficacy compared to the positive control dexamethasone, thus indicating its potential as an anti-inflammatory drug candidate.

Supersaturated Drug Delivery System of Oxyberberine Based on Cyclodextrin Nanoaggregates: Preparation, Characterization, and in vivo Application. Int J Nanomedicine 2024; 19:5297-5316. [PMID: 38859955 PMCID: PMC11164094 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s464994] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Propose Oxyberberine (OBB), one of the main metabolites of berberine derived from intestinal and erythrocyte metabolism, exhibits appreciable anti-hyperuricemic activity. However, the low water solubility and poor plasma concentration-effect relationship of OBB hamper its development and utilization. Therefore, an OBB-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) supersaturated drug delivery system (SDDS) was prepared and characterized in this work. Methods OBB-HP-β-CD SDDS was prepared using the ultrasonic-solvent evaporation method and characterized. Additionally, the in vitro and in vivo release experiments were conducted to assess the release kinetics of OBB-HP-β-CD SDDS. Subsequently, the therapeutic efficacy of OBB-HP-β-CD SDDS on hyperuricemia (HUA) was investigated by means of histopathological examination and evaluation of relevant biomarkers. Results The results of FT-IR, DSC, PXRD, NMR and molecular modeling showed that the crystallized form of OBB was transformed into an amorphous OBB-HP-β-CD complex. Dynamic light scattering indicated that this system was relatively stable and maintained by formation of nanoaggregates with an average diameter of 23 nm. The dissolution rate of OBB-HP-β-CD SDDS was about 5 times higher than that of OBB raw material. Furthermore, the AUC0-t of OBB-HP-β-CD SDDS (10.882 μg/mL*h) was significantly higher than that of the raw OBB counterpart (0.701 μg/mL*h). The oral relative bioavailability of OBB-HP-β-CD SDDS was also enhanced by 16 times compared to that of the raw material. Finally, in vivo pharmacodynamic assay showed the anti-hyperuricemic potency of OBB-HP-β-CD SDDS was approximately 5-10 times higher than that of OBB raw material. Conclusion Based on our findings above, OBB-HP-β-CD SDDS proved to be an excellent drug delivery system for increasing the solubility, dissolution, bioavailability, and anti-hyperuricemic potency of OBB.

Abstract
Biocompatible fatty acids are natural biological materials which exhibit widespread biomedical applications. Nevertheless, their application in vesicle forms is hampered by strong pH sensitivity and poor stability to changes in ionic strength, temperature, and storage. In the investigation, the incorporation of alkyl glycoside (APG), a surfactant with non-ionic properties, into the oleic acid (OA) vesicles was undertaken as a means to address this issue. The newly formed OA/APG composite vesicles form in a pH range of between 5.4 and 7.4, which is close to the pH range of the physiological environment. The stability studies results showed that the OA/APG composite vesicles have excellent stability in terms of ionic strengths, temperature and storage. The formation of NAR-loaded OA/APG composite vesicles was demonstrated through FT-IR, DSC and XRD. In vitro topical delivery and skin retention studies confirmed that the composite vesicles improve skin permeation rate and have better skin permeation behavior. Antioxidant activity experiments confirmed that the antioxidant effect composite vesicles were significantly increased as compared to the naringenin (NAR). This finding has theoretical implications for the use of drug-loaded fatty acid vesicles in cosmetics industries and topical delivery systems.

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

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a grade-IV astrocytoma, which is the most common and aggressive type of brain tumor, spreads rapidly and has a life-threatening catastrophic effect. GBM mostly occurs in adults with an average survival time of 15 to 18 months, and the overall mortality rate is 5%. Significant invasion and drug resistance activity cause the poor diagnosis of GBM. Naringenin (NRG) is a plant secondary metabolite byproduct of the flavanone subgroup. NRG can cross the blood-brain barrier and deliver drugs into the central nervous system when conjugated with appropriate nanocarriers to overcome the challenges associated with gliomas through naringenin-loaded nanoformulations. Here, we discuss several nanocarriers employed that are as delivery systems, such as polymeric nanoparticles, micelles, liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs), nanosuspensions, and nanoemulsions. These naringenin-loaded nanoformulations have been tested in various in vitro and in vivo models as a potential treatment for brain disorders. This review nanoformulations of NRG can a possible therapeutic alternative for the treatment of neurological diseases are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ginsenoside Rg5 has been proven to possess numerous health benefits. However, Rg5 is difficult to prepare using the current methods, and the poor stability and solubility of Rg5 are intractable properties that limit its application. We try to establish and optimize a new method for preparing Rg5. METHODS Different amino acids acted as catalysts, and reaction conditions were investigated to transform Rg5 in GSLS. Different CDs and reaction conditions were investigated for the preparation of CD-Rg5 based on yield and purity; ESI-MS, FT-IR, XRD and SEM analyses were used to prove the formation of the CD-Rg5 inclusion complex. Both the stability and bioactivity of β-CD-Rg5 were investigated. RESULTS The content of Rg5 reached 140.8 mg/g after transformation of GSLS using Asp as a catalyst. The yield of β-CD-Rg5 reached a maximum of 12% and a purity of 92.5%. The results showed that the β-CD-Rg5 inclusion complex can improve its stability of Rg5 against light and temperature. Antioxidant activity analyses against DPPH, ABTS+, and Fe2+ chelation showed enhanced antioxidant activity of the β-CD-Rg5 inclusion complex. CONCLUSIONS A novel and effective strategy for the separation of Rg5 from ginseng stem-leaf saponins (GSLS) was developed to improve the stability, solubility, and bioactivity of Rg5.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is caused by the deterioration of bone density and microstructure, resulting in increased fracture risk. It transpires due to an imbalanced skeletal remodelling process favouring bone resorption. Various natural compounds can positively influence the skeletal remodelling process, of which naringenin is a candidate. Naringenin is an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compound found in citrus fruits and grapefruit. This systematic review aims to present an overview of the available evidence on the skeletal protective effects of naringenin. METHOD A systematic literature search was conducted using the PubMed and Scopus databases in August 2022. Original research articles using cells, animals, or humans to investigate the bone protective effects of naringenin were included. RESULTS Sixteen eligible articles were included in this review. The existing evidence suggested that naringenin enhanced osteoblastogenesis and bone formation through BMP-2/p38MAPK/Runx2/Osx, SDF-1/CXCR4, and PI3K/Akt/c-Fos/c-Jun/AP-1 signalling pathways. Naringenin also inhibited osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption by inhibiting inflammation and the RANKL pathway. CONCLUSIONS Naringenin enhances bone formation while suppressing bone resorption, thus achieving its skeletal protective effects. It could be incorporated into the diet through fruit intake or supplements to prevent bone loss.

Alternative Methotrexate Oral Formulation: Enhanced Aqueous Solubility, Bioavailability, Photostability, and Permeability. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14102073.

Abstract
The poor aqueous solubility and/or permeability and thereby limited bioavailability largely restricts the pharmaco-therapeutic implications of potent anticancer drugs such as methotrexate (MTX). Furthermore, MTX’s inherently unstable nature makes it difficult to develop a viable oral formulation. In this study we developed the spray-dried amorphous inclusion complexes of MTX with native β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and its derivatives, namely HP-β-CD, M-β-CD, and DM-β-CD to enhance the aqueous solubility, photostability, permeability, and oral bioavailability of MTX in rats. Our findings show that the 1:1 stoichiometry ratio of MTX and CDs improves the aqueous solubility, stability, and pharmacokinetic profiles of the drug, the better results being obtained particularly with DM-β-CD as a host, which has a higher complexation ability with the drug compared to other β-CDs. Specifically, the pharmacokinetic analysis demonstrated 2.20- and 3.29-fold increments in AUC and Cmax, respectively, in comparison to free MTX. Even though the absorptive permeability of MTX and MTX/DM-β-CD inclusion complexes was similar, the efflux of the absorbed MTX from ICs was significantly lower compared to the free MTX (4.6- vs. 8.0-fold). Furthermore, the physicochemical characterization employing SEM, DSC, and PXRD confirmed the transformation of crystalline MTX to its amorphous state. In solution, 1H NMR studies revealed that MTX embedded into the DM-β-CD cavity resulting in both H-3 and H-5 chemical shifts implied the presence of intermolecular interaction between the drug and CD moiety. It was, therefore, evident that an MTX IC could be a successful oral formulation technique, preventing MTX degradation and enhancing its pharmacologically relevant properties.

Medicated Lacquer For Application On Adornments To Treat Affections In Aesthetic Perforations. Int J Pharm 2022; 627:122240. [PMID: 36179928 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2022.122240] [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: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Aesthetic perforations are often associated with health issues, such as itching, inflammation, or microbial infection. Accordingly, this work proposed a lacquer to be applied on the adornment accessory forming a film from which a proper drug is released. For this, lacquers were formulated containing three different permeation enhancers (limonene - LIM, propylene glycol - PG, and oleic acid - AO) combined according to a mixture design with a model anti-inflammatory natural drug (naringenin) and a soluble film-former polymer (polyvinyl alcohol). Formulations were characterized by physicochemical tests and in vitro and in vivo skin permeation studies. The lacquers were stable and provided a vectorized drug release. LIM, combined with one of the other permeation enhancers, showed a synergic effect, enhancing topical skin penetration in vitro by 53% while preventing permeation to the receptor medium. The in vivo evaluation of lacquers in rodent models showed these systems could provide higher levels of drug retention in the ear (166.4 ± 14.9 µg per ear for F4 and 174.9 ± 29.3 µg per ear for F5) compared to the control (109.2 ± 16.3 µg) without allowing its permeation into the bloodstream, confirming the local drug delivery. Moreover, the anti-inflammatory activity was achieved in the animal model developed for lacquer application on the earring, obtaining inhibition of ear swelling up to 40.8% ± 2.3 compared to the untreated ear. Thus, such an innovative lacquer proved a promising vehicle for treating affections caused by adornments, enhancing skin permeation while avoiding a systemic effect.

Abstract
Aurisin A (AA), an aristolane dimer sesquiterpene isolated from the luminescent mushroom Neonothopanus nambi, exhibits various biological and pharmacological effects. However, its poor solubility limits its use for further medicinal applications. This study aimed to improve the water solubility of AA via complexation with β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and its derivatives (2,6-di-O-methyl-βCD (DMβCD) and 2-hydroxypropyl-βCD (HPβCD). A phase solubility analysis demonstrated that the solubility of AA linearly enhanced with increasing concentrations of βCDs (ranked in the order of AA/DMβCD > AA/HPβCD > AA/βCD). Notably, βCDs, especially DMβCD, increased the thermal stability of the inclusion complexes. The thermodynamic study indicated that the complexation between AA and βCD(s) was a spontaneous endothermic reaction, and AA/DMβCD possesses the highest binding strength. The complex formation between AA and DMβCD was confirmed by means of FT-IR, DSC, and SEM. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed that the stability and compactness of the AA/DMβCD complex were higher than those of the DMβCD alone. The encapsulation of AA led to increased intramolecular H-bond formations on the wider rim of DMβCD, enhancing the complex stability. The antiproliferative activity of AA against A549 and H1975 lung cancer cells was significantly improved by complexation with DMβCD. Altogether, the satisfactory water solubility, high thermal stability, and enhanced antitumor potential of the AA/DMβCD inclusion complex would be useful for its application as healthcare products or herbal medicines.

Kapoor MP, Moriwaki M, Minoura K, Timm D, Abe A, Kito K. Structural Investigation of Hesperetin-7-O-Glucoside Inclusion Complex with β-Cyclodextrin: A Spectroscopic Assessment. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27175395. [PMID: 36080157 PMCID: PMC9457751 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27175395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Flavonoids are biologically active natural products of great interest for their potential applications in functional foods and pharmaceuticals. A hesperetin-7-O-glucoside inclusion complex with β-cyclodextrin (HEPT7G/βCD; SunActive® HCD) was formulated via the controlled enzymatic hydrolysis of hesperidin with naringinase enzyme. The conversion rate was nearly 98%, estimated using high-performance liquid chromatography analysis. The objective of this study was to investigate the stability, solubility, and spectroscopic features of the HEPT7G/βCD inclusion complex using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), Raman, ultraviolet–visible absorption (UV–vis), 1H- and 13C- nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), liquid chromatography/mass spectroscopy (LC–MS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and powdered X-ray diffraction (PXRD) spectroscopic techniques including zeta potential, Job’s plot, and phase solubility measurements. The effects of complexation on the profiles of supramolecular interactions in analytic features, especially the chemical shifts of β-CD protons in the presence of the HEPT7G moiety, were evaluated. The stoichiometric ratio, stability, and solubility constants (binding affinity) describe the extent of complexation of a soluble complex in 1:1 stoichiometry that exhibits a greater affinity and fits better into the β-CD inner cavity. The NMR spectroscopy results identified two different configurations of the HEPT7G moiety and revealed that the HEPT7G/βCD inclusion complex has both –2S and –2R stereoisomers of hesperetin-7-O-glucoside possibly in the –2S/–2R epimeric ratio of 1/1.43 (i.e., –2S: 41.1% and –2R: 58.9%). The study indicated that encapsulation of the HEPT7G moiety in β-CD is complete inclusion, wherein both ends of HEPT7G are included in the β-CD inner hydrophobic cavity. The results showed that the water solubility and thermal stability of HEPT7G were apparently increased in the inclusion complex with β-CD. This could potentially lead to increased bioavailability of HEPT7G and enhanced health benefits of this flavonoid.

Abstract
The assembly of an inclusion complex in an aqueous medium using a metabolizer drug (dyphylline) as guest and β-cyclodextrin as host has been established, which is extremely appropriate for a variety of applications in modern biomedical sciences. The formation of the inclusion complex is established by 1H NMR, and surface tension and conductivity measurements demonstrate that the inclusion complex was produced with 1:1 stoichiometry. The thermodynamic parameters based on density, viscosity, and refractive index measurements were used to determine the nature of the complex. This research also forecasts how dyphylline will release in the presence of CT-DNA without any chemical modifications. The produced insertion complex (IC) has a higher photostability due to the drug dyphylline being protected by β-CD. The antibacterial activity of dyphylline greatly improved after complexation and exhibited higher toxicity against Gram-negative (highest against Escherichia coli) in comparison to Gram-positive bacteria. The encapsulation mode of the dyphylline molecule into the cavity of the β-CD was also investigated using DFT to confirm preliminary results.

Abstract
Naringenin (NRG) is a natural compound with several biological activities; however, its bioavailability is limited owing to poor aqueous solubility. In this study, NRG nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared using the wet media milling method. To obtain NRG NPs with a small particle size and high drug-loading content, the preparation conditions, including stirring time, temperature, stirring speed, and milling media amount, were optimized. The NRG (30 mg) and D-α-tocopherol polyethylene glycol succinate (10 mg) were wet-milled in deionized water (2 mL) with 10 g of zirconia beads via stirring at 50 °C for 2 h at a stirring speed of 300 rpm. As a result, the NRG NPs, with sheet-like morphology and a diameter of approximately 182.2 nm, were successfully prepared. The NRG NPs were stable in the gastrointestinal system and were released effectively after entering the blood circulation. In vivo experiments indicated that the NRG NPs have good antitussive effects. The cough inhibition rate after the administration of the NRG NPs was 66.7%, cough frequency was three times lower, and the potential period was 1.8 times longer than that in the blank model group. In addition, the enzyme biomarkers and histological analysis results revealed that the NRG NPs can effectively regulate the inflammatory and oxidative stress response. In conclusion, the NRG NPs exhibited good oral bioavailability and promoted antitussive and anti-inflammatory effects.

Abstract
Naringenin (NRG) is a plant-derived flavonoid. Due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic activities it is beneficial to human health and is often used as a functional food ingredient; however, it has poor water solubility and low in vivo bioavailability. Therefore, the efficacy of NRG can be improved by enhancing its water solubility to increase gastrointestinal absorption. Conventional methods for the formulation of NRG are very complex and use toxic organic solvents, making them impractical for the production of functional foods. The objective of this study was to develop a safe and effective NRG-based functional food material. Previously, we established a technology to prepare amorphous solid dispersions (SDs) from functional food ingredients with poor water solubility and used hot-melt extrusion technology that is comparatively simple and does not involve the use of organic solvents. In this study, we prepared NRG SD and evaluated them both physicochemically and biochemically. NRG SD had superior water solubility and gastrointestinal absorption relative to native NRG and showed higher analgesic efficacy in rats than crystalline NRG. NRG SD was administered to mice in a mixed diet for 28 days, and organ weights and hematological/clinical biochemical parameters were assessed. NRG SD did not demonstrate severe adverse effects. The results suggest that NRG SD is a safe and highly efficacious formulation that can be used as a functional food material in the future.

Abstract
In order to improve the aqueous solubility and enhance the bioavailability of Hyperoside (Hyp), three inclusion complexes (ICs) of Hyp with 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (2H-β-CD), β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), and methyl-β-cyclodextrin (M-β-CD) were prepared using the ultrasonic method. The characterization of the inclusion complexes (ICs) was achieved using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR). The effects of the ICs on the solubility and antioxidant activity of Hyp were investigated. A Job’s plot revealed that the Hyp formed ICs with three kinds of cyclodextrin (CD), all at a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio. The FTIR, SEM, XRPD, TLC, and 1H NMR results confirmed the formation of inclusion complexes. The water solubility of the IC of Hyp with 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin was enhanced 9-fold compared to the solubility of the original Hyp. The antioxidant activity tests showed that the inclusion complexes had higher antioxidant activities compared to free Hyp in vitro and the H2O2–RAW264.7 cell model. Therefore, encapsulation with CDs can not only improve Hyp’s water solubility but can also enhance its biological activity, which provides useful information for the potential application of complexation with Hyp in a clinical context.

Abstract
Cyanidin 3-O-glucoside (C3G), which has various health-promoting functions, is contained in black soybean (BSB). In Japan and Korea, BSB is cooked with rice and the cooked rice appears purplish in colour. In this study, BSB was cooked with glutinous rice, non-glutinous rice, and high-amylose rice. The amount of C3G detected in high-amylose rice was greater than that detected in glutinous rice, suggesting that C3G combined more efficiently with amylose than with amylopectin. Pancreatin induced the liberation of starch/C3G complexes from the purplish cooked rice, and rate of the liberation was in the following order; glutinous rice < non-glutinous rice < high-amylose rice. The amylose/C3G complexes liberated from high-amylose rice was hydrolysed slowly, while the amylopectin/C3G complexes liberated from glutinous rice were hydrolysed into smaller amylopectin/C3G complexes that were difficult to further hydrolysis. Thus, C3G may be useful for preparing foods whose starch hydrolysis is slow.

Abstract
Naringenin, a lipophilic flavanone of citrus fruits, was encapsulated for enhanced bioavailability using biodegradable polymers of polylactic acid/polyvinyl alcohol (PLA/PVA) as well as zein/pectin as P/P-Nar-NPs and Z/P-Nar-NPs, respectively. The formulation variables were optimized using response surface methodology to achieve smaller particle size with higher surface charge and encapsulation efficiencies. The optimized formulations were physically characterized by SEM, FTIR, TGA and XRD techniques. Compared to Z/P-Nar-NPs, the P/P-Nar-NPs had better encapsulation efficiency and sustained release of naringenin under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Furthermore, the oral administration of single dose of free and nanoforms of naringenin in rats (90 mg/kg b.wt) showed higher efficacy of PLA/PVA in improving the relative bioavailability of naringenin (4.7-fold) as compared to the zein/pectin polymer (1.9-fold). Overall, the present study provides insights into the formulation performance of the encapsulated bioactive compound under different polymeric matrices.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Naringenin (NAR) is a flavonoid with excellent antioxidant and neuroprotective potential that is limited by its low solubility. Thus, solid dispersions with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), and microenvironmental pH modifiers were prepared. METHODS The systems formation analysis was performed by X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Water solubility and dissolution rates were studied with a pH of 1.2 and 6.8. In vitro permeability through the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and the blood-brain barrier (BBB) was assessed with the parallel artificial membrane permeability assay (PAMPA) assay. The antioxidant activity was studied with the 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) and cupric ion reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) assays, while in vitro enzymes studies involved the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, and tyrosinase. For the most promising system, in silico studies were conducted. RESULTS NAR solubility was increased 458-fold by the solid dispersion NAR:HP-β-CD:NaHCO3 in a mass ratio of 1:3:1. The dissolution rate was elevated from 8.216% to 88.712% in a pH of 1.2 and from 11.644% to 88.843% in a pH of 6.8 (within 3 h). NAR GIT permeability, described as the apparent permeability coefficient, was increased from 2.789 × 10-6 cm s-1 to 2.909 × 10-5 cm s-1 in an acidic pH and from 1.197 × 10-6 cm s-1 to 2.145 × 10-5 cm s-1 in a basic pH. NAR BBB permeability was established as 4.275 × 10-6 cm s-1. The antioxidant activity and enzyme inhibition were also increased. Computational studies confirmed NAR:HP-β-CD inclusion complex formation. CONCLUSIONS A significant improvement in NAR solubility was associated with an increase in its biological activity.

Abstract
Citrus pomace consists of the peel, pulp, and membrane tissues remaining after juice expression. Globally, around one million tons of citrus pomace are generated annually, which contains a variety of bioactive constituents that could be used as value-added functional ingredients in foods. However, the polyphenols in citrus pomace are not currently being utilized to their full potential, even though they can be used as nutraceuticals in functional foods and beverages. Citrus phenolics face significant roadblocks to their successful incorporation into these products. In particular, they have poor water solubility, chemical stability, and bioavailability. This review describes the diverse range of colloidal systems that have been developed to encapsulate and deliver citrus phenolics. Examples of the application of these systems for the encapsulation, protection, and delivery of polyphenols from citrus pomace are given. The use of colloidal delivery systems has been shown to improve the stability, dispersibility, and bioaccessibility of encapsulated polyphenols from citrus pomace. The selection of an appropriate delivery system determines the handling, storage, shelf life, encapsulation efficiency, dispersibility, and gastrointestinal fate of the citrus polyphenols. Furthermore, the purity, solubility, and chemical structure of the polyphenols are key factors in delivery system selection.

Abstract
Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of inherited neurodegenerative conditions that share a characteristic feature of degeneration of the longest axons within the corticospinal tract, which leads to progressive spasticity and weakness of the lower limbs. Mutations of over 70 genes produce defects in various biological pathways: axonal transport, lipid metabolism, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) shaping, mitochondrial function, and endosomal trafficking. HSPs suffer from an adequate therapeutic plan. Currently the treatments foreseen for patients affected by this pathology are physiotherapy, to maintain the outgoing tone, and muscle relaxant therapies for spasticity. Very few clinical studies have been conducted, and it's urgent to implement preclinical animal studies devoted to pharmacological test and screening, to expand the rose of compounds potentially attractive for clinical trials. Small animal models, such as Drosophila melanogaster and zebrafish, have been generated, analyzed, and used as preclinical model for screening of compounds and their effects. In this work, we briefly described the role of HSP-linked proteins in the organization of ER endomembrane system and in the regulation of ER homeostasis and stress as a common pathological mechanism for these HSP forms. We then focused our attention on the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic features of some recently identified molecules with antioxidant property, such as salubrinal, guanabenz, N-acetyl cysteine, methylene blue, rapamycin, and naringenin, and on their potential use in future clinical studies. Expanding the models and the pharmacological screening for HSP disease is necessary to give an opportunity to patients and clinicians to test new molecules.

Abstract
Naringenin (NRG) is a polyphenolic phytochemical belonging to the class of flavanones and is widely distributed in citrus fruits and some other fruits such as bergamot, tomatoes, cocoa, and cherries. NRG presents several interesting pharmacological properties, such as anti-cancer, anti-oxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities. However, the therapeutic potential of NRG is hampered due to its hydrophobic nature, which leads to poor bioavailability. Here, we review a wide range of nanocarriers that have been used as delivery systems for NRG, including polymeric nanoparticles, micelles, liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs), nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs), nanosuspensions, and nanoemulsions. These nanomedicine formulations of NRG have been applied as a potential treatment for several diseases, using a wide range of in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo models and different routes of administration. From this review, it can be concluded that NRG is a potential therapeutic option for the treatment of various diseases such as cancer, neurological disorders, liver diseases, ocular disorders, inflammatory diseases, skin diseases, and diabetes when formulated in the appropriate nanocarriers.

Abstract
Despite the development in novel drug delivery techniques and synthesis of multifunctional excipients, oral delivery of hydrophobic drug like docetaxel (DTX) is still challenging. The present work investigates the inclusion complexation of DTX, and dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin (DM-β-CD) to improve the solubility, dissolution and permeability of the drug. Amongst the native and modified β-cyclodextrins, DM-β-CD showed the highest solubility of DTX. Solid binary inclusion complex (IC) of DTX with DM-β-CD was prepared by solvent evaporation technique and thoroughly characterized for solubility, dissolution, permeability, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR). The aqueous solubility and in vitro dissolution rate of DTX/DM-β-CD IC were markedly increased by 76.04- and 3.55-fold compared to free DTX powder. The permeability of DTX/DM-β-CD IC showed similar absorptive permeability but decreased efflux from the absorbed DTX, compared to pure DTX. Further, physicochemical studies of IC revealed the change of crystalline state DTX to its amorphous form. Moreover, FT-IR and 1H NMR results indicate the formation of true inclusion complex between DTX and DM-β-CD at 1:1 molar ratio. Collectively, solid inclusion complexes prepared by spray drying method can be an effective strategy to enhance the biopharmaceutical performance of a highly hydrophobic drug DTX.

Abstract
Octenyl succinic anhydride esterified waxy corn starches (OSAS) with five different molecular weights (MWs) were prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis and their effects on naringin solubility were studied. The MW of OSAS was found to significantly influence the amount of naringin embedded in the complex formed by self-aggregation. OSAS with medium MW (M-OSAS) formed complex with the highest naringin entrapment. This system showed an AL type water phase solubility curve (indicating a 1:1 stoichiometric inclusion complex) and an increase of 848.83 folds in naringin solubility. Further investigation on the interactions between M-OSAS and naringin using FTIR, XRD, DSC and NMR confirmed the encapsulation of naringin into the inner cavity of M-OSAS. TEM and particle size analysis indicated the complex was spherical in shape, having a mean particle size of 257.07 nm and size distribution of 10-1000 nm. This study has provided a basis for solubility enhancement of citrus flavonoids using OSAS.

Abstract
An ideal DNA carrier is one that is capable of effectively condensing DNA into complexes of optimum size and shape, preventing premature decomplexation in the bloodstream and efficiently releasing the DNA into affected cells. In this context, we have developed a novel β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-based four-arm star-shaped polymer inclusion complex (IC) with arms made of a poly(l-histidine)-based cationic polymer. The polymer was well characterized by gel permeation chromatography, NMR, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. We have also investigated its DNA complexation and release properties. Bisadamantane containing a disulfide bond was synthesized that linked two such poly(l-histidine)-containing β-CD units via guest-host interactions to prepare the presented IC. Besides using the conventional steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy, the ability of this IC to condense DNA to form polyplexes and their release behavior have been established by using the time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy technique. Thiazole orange (TO) was used for the first time as a DNA-intercalating dye in the time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopic study. The superior DNA-condensing ability of the IC as compared to that of the precursor two-arm β-CD and linear poly(l-histidine) of a comparable molecular weight, as confirmed by dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, atomic force microscopy, and gel electrophoresis studies, could be attributed to a higher charge density. The IC-DNA polyplexes were found to be stable in a medium similar to an extracellular fluid but could efficiently release DNA in the presence of 10 mM glutathione, a concentration prevalent in the intracellular fluid of cancer cells. Hence, here, we have successfully demonstrated the synthesis of a novel biocompatible star-shaped IC with the potential to carry and release DNA in cancer cells and also established the feasibility of using the time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopic technique to study the complexation behavior of the polycation and DNA using TO as a DNA-intercalating dye.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to study the complexation process of FIN with native and modified CDs, to develop an aqueous solution for the topical treatment of male androgenic alopecia. The effect of pH and temperature in the complexation process were studied by solubility studies. The complexes FIN-CDs were characterized by 1HNMR and 2-D NMR (ROESY) spectroscopy. Molecular modeling studies and NMR data were used to build three-dimensional models of the complexes. FTIR, DSC and SEM techniques were also applied to strengthen physicochemical characterization, geometry as well as structural aspects evidencing the effective inclusion of FIN into the CDs' hydrophobic cavity. The most effective CDs in the FIN complexation were γ-CDs, and their modified HP-γ- and methyl-γ-CDs by forming 1:1 complexes. The Kc value obtained for γ-CDs was 9687 ± 51 M-1, whereas the Kc values obtained for HP-γ- and methyl-γ-CDs were lower, indicating that the presence of HP or methyl groups hinder the entry of FIN in the hydrophobic cavity of γ-CDs. In conclusion, FIN aqueous solubility could be increased by complexation with CDs and the aqueous solutions obtained can be used to improve FIN therapeutic possibilities in a pleasant preparation for the patient that guarantees the adherence to the treatment.

Abstract
Pathological pain can be initiated after inflammation and/or peripheral nerve injury. It is a consequence of the pathological functioning of the nervous system rather than only a symptom. In fact, pain is a significant social, health, and economic burden worldwide. Flavonoids are plant derivative compounds easily found in several fruits and vegetables and consumed in the daily food intake. Flavonoids vary in terms of classes, and while structurally unique, they share a basic structure formed by three rings, known as the flavan nucleus. Structural differences can be found in the pattern of substitution in one of these rings. The hydroxyl group (-OH) position in one of the rings determines the mechanisms of action of the flavonoids and reveals a complex multifunctional activity. Flavonoids have been widely used for their antioxidant, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory effects along with safe preclinical and clinical profiles. In this review, we discuss the preclinical and clinical evidence on the analgesic and anti-inflammatory proprieties of flavonoids. We also focus on how the development of formulations containing flavonoids, along with the understanding of their structure-activity relationship, can be harnessed to identify novel flavonoid-based therapies to treat pathological pain and inflammation.

Abstract
The crystal structures of the inclusion complexes of naringenin in dimethylated and permethylated β-cyclodextrin (DM-β-CD and TM-β-CD) were determined and extensively analyzed. Naringenin is found with its 4-hydroxyphenyl residue fully immersed in the DM-β-CD cavity and its chromone group protruding from the narrow rim of the open-cone shaped host. The naringenin/DM-β-CD complex units are packed in a ‘herring bone’ fashion. In the case of naringenin/TM-β-CD, the complex units are arranged in a cage-type mode, the guest naringenin is partially encapsulated in the cavity of the closed-cone shaped host, with its chromone group laying equatorially and its 4-hydroxyphenyl protruding extensively from the wide rim of the host. Furthermore, the crystallographically-determined coordinates of both complexes were employed for Molecular Dynaimics simulations in explicit water solvent and in the absence of crystal contacts. The trajectories showed that naringenin rapidly penetrates the open narrow rim of DM-β-CD but not the closed narrow rim of TM-β-CD. Thus, in the latter case, the chromone group of naringenin is accommodated shallowly in the wide rim of the host, tethered via hydrogen bonds to the secondary methoxy groups of the host. Finally, a significantly higher binding affinity for naringenin in DM-β-CD than TM-β-CD was estimated by Molecular Mechanics/Generalized Born Surface Area calculations.

Abstract
The flavonoid naringenin (NAR) exhibits an outstanding anti-inflammatory potential; however, stability problems and reduced solubility hinder its commercial insertion. This work aimed to obtain solid-state hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (CD) inclusion complexes with NAR using, for the first time, the solvent change precipitation method. For this, molecular modeling and physicochemical characterizations were conducted, followed by in vitro and in vivo assays. The complexation method showed thermal and spectroscopic evidence of NAR inclusion complexes formation, suggesting an improvement of its stability. Additionally, 30 min-dissolution efficiency of the complex was 57.2 %, whereas NAR, as supplied, showed only 14.3 %, a four-fold enhancement. In vitro and in vivo performance attested the potent anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive profile of NAR with significant suppression of TNF-α production. Moreover, NAR complexation with CD improved its therapeutic effect, which showed similar activity to that achieved with NAR as supplied but employing only 1/5 of its dose.

Abstract
Activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) have a central role in the progression of liver fibrosis and express a large amount of secreted protein, acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC), a specific protein-binding protein. In this study, we reported the preparation and evaluation of naringenin (Nar) -loaded albumin self-modified liposomes (NaAlLs), which delivered Nar, a specific Smad3 inhibitor that blocked the TGF-β/Smad3 signaling pathway and played an anti-fibrosis role. After a series of characterization, it was found that NaAlLs had favorable dispersion (PDI < 0.15) with an average particle size of about 120 nm and high entrapment efficiency (>85%), albumin coated the surface of liposomes or embedded in phospholipid bilayer by interaction with the encapsulated naringenin and phospholipid molecules during the preparation of liposomes. The amount of albumin modified to the surface of NaAlLs by this method is not only more than that of the physical adsorption method, but also the binding force between albumin and liposomes is stronger. The albumin modified to the surface of NaAlLs greatly reduced the aggregation of liposomes and drug leakage and increased the stability of liposomes. More importantly, the uptake of NaAlLs by activated HSCs was 1.5 times higher than that of Nar-loaded liposomes (NaLs), suggesting that NaAlLs specifically increased targeting of activated HSCs via albumin and SPARC-dependent pathways. As expected, NaAlLs was more effective in improving liver fibrosis than the NaLs or the inclusion complex solution of Nar and Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (NaICS). The results suggested that NaAlLs was a promising drug delivery system, which could target drug delivery to activated HSC for the treatment of liver fibrosis.

Enhanced Solubility and Anticancer Potential of Mansonone G By β-Cyclodextrin-Based Host-Guest Complexation: A Computational and Experimental Study. Biomolecules 2019; 9:biom9100545. [PMID: 31569832 PMCID: PMC6843486 DOI: 10.3390/biom9100545] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2019] [Revised: 09/24/2019] [Accepted: 09/26/2019] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Mansonone G (MG), a plant-derived compound isolated from the heartwood of Mansonia gagei, possesses a potent antitumor effect on several kinds of malignancy. However, its poor solubility limits the use for practical applications. Beta-cyclodextrin (βCD), a cyclic oligosaccharide composed of seven (1→4)-linked α-D-glucopyranose units, is capable of encapsulating a variety of poorly soluble compounds into its hydrophobic interior. In this work, we aimed to enhance the water solubility and the anticancer activity of MG by complexation with βCD and its derivatives (2,6-di-O-methyl-βCD (DMβCD) and hydroxypropyl-βCD). The 90-ns molecular dynamics simulations and MM/GBSA-based binding free energy results suggested that DMβCD was the most preferential host molecule for MG inclusion complexation. The inclusion complex formation between MG and βCD(s) was confirmed by DSC and SEM techniques. Notably, the MG/βCDs inclusion complexes exerted significantly higher cytotoxic effect (~2–7 fold) on A549 lung cancer cells than the uncomplexed MG.

Abstract
Neurological illnesses are multifactorial incurable debilitating disorders that may cause neurodegeneration. These diseases influence approximately 30 million people around the world. Despite several therapies, effective management of such disorders remains a global challenge. Thus, natural products might offer an alternative therapy for the treatment of various neurological disorders. Polyphenols, such as curcumin, resveratrol, myricetin, mangiferin and naringin (NRG) have been shown to possess promising potential in the treatment of neurogenerative illness. In this review, we have targeted the therapeutic potential of naringin as a neuroprotective agent. The overall neuroprotective effects and different possible underlying mechanisms related to NRG are discussed. In light of the strong evidence for the neuropharmacological efficacy of NRG in various experimental paradigms, it is concluded that this molecule should be further considered and studied as a potential candidate for neurotherapeutics, focusing on mechanistic and clinical trials to ascertain its efficacy.
