Abstract
Conventional therapies for inflammatory bowel diseases are mainly based on systemic treatments which cause side effects and toxicity over long-term administration. Nanoparticles appear as a valid alternative to allow a preferential accumulation in inflamed tissues following oral administration while reducing systemic drug exposure. To increase their residence time in the inflamed intestine, the nanoparticles are here associated with a hydrogel matrix. A bioadhesive peptide-based hydrogel is mixed with nanoemulsions, creating a hybrid lipid-polymer nanocomposite. Mucopenetrating nanoemulsions of 100 nm are embedded in a scaffold constituted of the self-assembling peptide hydrogel product PuraStat. The nanocomposite is fully characterized to study the impact of lipid particles in the hydrogel structure. Rheological measurements and circular dichroism analyses are performed to investigate the system's microstructure and physical properties. Biodistribution studies demonstrate that the nanocomposite acts as a depot in the stomach and facilitates the slow release of the nanoemulsions in the intestine. Efficacy studies upon oral administration of the drug-loaded system show the improvement of the disease score in a mouse model of intestinal inflammation.

J Pharm Sci 2024:S0022-3549(24)00194-1. [PMID: 38796155 DOI: 10.1016/j.xphs.2024.05.020] [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: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying drug release from a controlled colonic release (CCR) tablet formulation based on a xyloglucan polysaccharide matrix and identify the factors that control the rate of release for the purpose of fundamentally substantiating the concept and demonstrating its robustness for colonic drug delivery. Previous work demonstrated in vitro limited release of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) and caffeine from these tablets in small intestinal environment and significant acceleration of release by xyloglucanase, an enzyme of the colonic microbiome. Targeted colonic drug delivery was verified in an animal study in vivo. In the present work, interaction of the xyloglucan matrix tablets with aqueous dissolution media containing xyloglucanase was found to lead to the spontaneous formation of a hydrated highly viscous gummy layer at the surface of the matrix which had a reduced drug content compared to the underlying regions and persisted with a nearly constant thickness that was inversely correlated to the enzyme concentration throughout the duration of the release process. Enzymatic hydrolysis of xyloglucan was determined to take place at the surface of the matrix leading to matrix erosion and a relation for the rate of enzymatic reaction as a function of bulk enzyme concentration and the concentration of dissolved xyloglucan in the gummy layer was derived. A mathematical model was developed encompassing aqueous medium ingress, matrix metamorphosis due to xyloglucan dissolution and matrix swelling, enzymatic hydrolysis of the polysaccharide and concomitant drug release due to matrix erosion and simultaneous drug diffusion. The model was fitted to data of reducing sugar equivalents in the medium reflecting matrix erosion and released drug amount. Enzymatic reaction parameters and reasonable values of medium ingress velocity, xyloglucan dissolution rate constant and drug diffusion coefficient were deduced that provided an adequate approximation of the data. Erosion was shown to be the overwhelmingly dominant drug release mechanism while the role of diffusion marginally increased at low enzyme concentration and high drug solubility. Changing enzyme concentration had a rather weak effect on matrix erosion and drug release rate as demonstrated by model simulations supported by experimental data, while xyloglucan dissolution was slow and had a stronger effect on the rate of the process. Therefore, reproducible colonic drug delivery not critically influenced by inter- and intra-individual variation of microbial enzyme activity may be projected.

Abstract
The oral delivery of biologics such as therapeutic proteins, peptides and oligonucleotides for the treatment of colon related diseases has been the focus of increasing attention over the last years. However, the major disadvantage of these macromolecules is their degradation propensity in liquid state which can lead to the undesirable and complete loss of function. Therefore, to increase the stability of the biologic and reduce their degradation propensity, formulation techniques such as solidification can be performed to obtain a stable solid dosage form for oral administration. Due to their fragility, stress exerted on the biologic during solidification has to be reduced with the incorporation of stabilizing excipients into the formulation. This review focuses on the state-of-the-art solidification techniques required to obtain a solid dosage form for the oral delivery of biologics to the colon and the use of suitable excipients for adequate stabilization upon solidification. The solidifying processes discussed within this review are spray drying, freeze drying, bead coating and also other techniques such as spray freeze drying, electro spraying, vacuum- and supercritical fluid drying. Further, the colon as site of absorption in both healthy and diseased state is critically reviewed and possible oral delivery systems for biologics are discussed.

Abstract
Currently, commercialized infliximab (IFX) has rapidly propelled the clinical treatment of IBD, however, its inherent attributes, such as off-target effects and rapid metabolism, severely limit practical applications. Moreover, high doses injection of IFX can result in IBD treatment failure, which may induce other side effects. In this study, an colon microenvironment-responsive hydrogel (AL/HA hydrogel), consisting of acid-resistant sodium alginate and colon-degraded and targeted hyaluronic acid, was constructed by simple Ca2+/Zn2+ cross-linking. The ion-mediated hydrogel exhibited the protective effect of gastrointestinal tract to avoid early drug leakage, while the inflammation environments showed well-controlled drug release and significant biodegradable behaviors. Additionally, oral hydrogel exhibited long-standing enteritis areas compared with normal mice. Therefore, hydrogel-assisted enteritis treatment has great potential in IBD as an oral agent. After that, IFX was packaged in hydrogel to fabricate a facile oral antibody delivery system to treat IBD. IFX-embedded hydrogel showed remarkable therapeutic effect on IBD compared with free IFX. Surprisingly, oral hydrogel below 7 times IFX achieve the same amount of IFX-infused treatment that will further help alleviate the drawbacks of IFX. Our work elaborated on the efficacy of oral AL/HA@IFX in IBD, providing a guarantee for the future of promoted clinical transformation.

Abstract
RNA interference (RNAi) therapies have significant potential for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Although administering small interfering RNA (siRNA) via an oral route is desirable, various hurdles including physicochemical, mucus, and cellular uptake barriers of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) impede both the delivery of siRNA to the target site and the action of siRNA drugs at the target site. In this review, we first discuss various physicochemical and biological barriers in the GI tract. Furthermore, we present recent strategies and the progress of oral siRNA delivery strategies to treat IBD. Finally, we consider the challenges faced in the use of these strategies and future directions of oral siRNA delivery strategies.

Abstract
The complex pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) explains the several hurdles for finding an efficient approach to cure it. Nowadays, therapeutic protocols aim to reduce inflammation during the hot phase or maintain remission during the cold phase. Nonetheless, these drugs suffer from severe side effects or poor efficacy due to low bioavailability in the inflamed region of the intestinal tract. New protocols based on antibodies that target proinflammatory cytokines are clinically relevant. However, besides being expensive, their use is associated with a primary nonresponse or a loss of response following a long administration period. Accordingly, many researchers exploited the physiological changes of the mucosal barrier for designing nanoparticulate drug delivery systems to target inflamed tissues. Others exploited biocompatibility and relative affordability of polysaccharides to test their intrinsic anti-inflammatory and healing properties in IBD models. This critical review updates state of the art on advances in IBD treatment. Data on using polysaccharide nanoparticulate drug delivery systems for IBD treatment are reviewed and discussed.

Abstract
A therapeutic strategy that targets multiple proinflammatory factors in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with minimal systemic side effects would be attractive. Here, we develop a drug-free, biodegradable nanomedicine that acts against IBD by scavenging proinflammatory cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Polyethylenimine (PEI) was conjugated to antioxidative diselenide-bridged mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (MONs) to formulate nanoparticles (MON-PEI) that exhibited high cfDNA binding affinity and ROS-responsive degradation. In ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease mouse colitis models, orally administered MON-PEI accumulated preferentially in the inflamed colon and attenuated colonic and peritoneal inflammation by alleviating cfDNA- and ROS-mediated inflammatory responses, allowing a reduced dose frequency and ameliorating colitis even after delayed treatment. This work suggests a new nanomedicine strategy for IBD treatment.

Abstract
In this study, oral colon-targeted adhesion core-shell nanoparticles were designed by applying FA-Zein as the core and using pectin as the shell to enhance the low bioavailability exhibited by glycyrrhizic acid (GA) and the anti-inflammatory effect in specific parts of the intestine. As indicated by the results, the nanoparticles (NPs) remained stable in the stomach and small intestine, while pectins began to degrade and release GA in considerable amounts in the colon with the abundant flora. Subsequently, folate-acid targeting was further assessed with Raw 264.7 and NCM 460 cells. Lastly, NPs were reported to exhibit high adhesion on the colon by using the DSS-induced ulcerative colitis mouse model. Moreover, as indicated by in vitro and in vivo studies, nanoparticles could decrease the levels of MPO and TNF-α by reducing macrophages and neutrophils. In brief, this study provides an ideal loaded natural anti-inflammatory drug delivery system to treat ulcerative colitis.

[PMID: 34683903 PMCID: PMC8537518 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13101610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Revised: 09/21/2021] [Accepted: 09/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The oral delivery of macromolecules is quite challenging due to environmental insults and biological barriers encountered along the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Benefiting from their living characteristics, diverse bacterial species have been engineered as intelligent platforms to deliver various therapeutics. To tackle difficulties in oral delivery, innovative bacteria-based microdevices have been developed by virtue of advancements in synthetic biology and nanotechnology, with aims to overcome the instability and short half-life of macromolecules in the GI tract. In this review, we summarize the main classes of macromolecules that are produced and delivered through the oral ingestion of bacteria and bacterial derivatives. Furtherly, we discuss the engineering strategies and biomedical applications of these living microdevices in disease diagnosis, bioimaging, and treatment. Finally, we highlight the advantages as well as the limitations of these engineered bacteria used as platforms for the oral delivery of macromolecules and also propose their potential for clinical translation. The results summarized in this review article would contribute to the invention of next-generation bacteria-based systems for the oral delivery of macromolecules.

Abstract
The initiation and development of major inflammatory diseases, i.e., cancer, vascular inflammation, and some autoimmune diseases are closely linked to the immune system. Biologics-based immunotherapy is exerting a critical role against these diseases, whereas the usage of the immunomodulators is always limited by various factors such as susceptibility to digestion by enzymes in vivo, poor penetration across biological barriers, and rapid clearance by the reticuloendothelial system. Drug delivery strategies are potent to promote their delivery. Herein, we reviewed the potential targets for immunotherapy against the major inflammatory diseases, discussed the biologics and drug delivery systems involved in the immunotherapy, particularly highlighted the approved therapy tactics, and finally offer perspectives in this field.

Abstract
Oral delivery is considered the favoured route of administration for both local and systemic delivery of active molecules. Formulation of drugs in conventional systems and nanoparticles has provided opportunities for targeting the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, increasing drug solubility and bioavailability. Despite the achievements of these delivery approaches, the development of a product with the ability of delivering drug molecules at a specific site and according to patients' needs remains a challenging endeavour. The complexity of the physicochemical properties of colloidal systems, their stability in different regions of the gastrointestinal tract, and interaction with the restrictive biological barriers hampered their success for oral precise medicine. To overcome these issues, nanoparticles have been combined with polymers to create hybrid nanosystems, namely nanocomposites. They offer enormous possibilities of structural and mechanical modifications to both nanoparticles and polymeric matrixes to generate systems with new properties, functions, and applications for oral delivery. In this review, nanocomposites' physicochemical and functional properties intended to target specific regions of the GI tract-oral cavity, stomach, small bowel, and colon-are analysed. In parallel, it is provided an insight in the nanocomposite solutions for oral delivery intended for systemic and local absorption, together with a focus on inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). Additional difficulties in managing IBD related to the alteration in the physiology of the intestine are described. Finally, future perspectives and opportunities for advancement in this field are discussed.
