Gong T, Liu X, Wang X, Lu Y, Wang X. Applications of polysaccharides in enzyme-triggered oral colon-specific drug delivery systems: A review. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 275:133623. [PMID: 38969037 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133623] [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: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 06/27/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/07/2024]
Abstract
Enzyme-triggered oral colon-specific drug delivery system (EtOCDDS1) can withstand the harsh stomach and small intestine environments, releasing encapsulated drugs selectively in the colon in response to colonic microflora, exerting local or systematic therapeutic effects. EtOCDDS boasts high colon targetability, enhanced drug bioavailability, and reduced systemic side effects. Polysaccharides are extensively used in enzyme-triggered oral colon-specific drug delivery systems, and its colon targetability has been widely confirmed, as their properties meet the demand of EtOCDDS. Polysaccharides, known for their high safety and excellent biocompatibility, feature modifiable structures. Some remain undigested in the stomach and small intestine, whether in their natural state or after modifications, and are exclusively broken down by colon-resident microbiota. Such characteristics make them ideal materials for EtOCDDS. This article reviews the design principles of EtOCDDS as well as commonly used polysaccharides and their characteristics, modifications, applications and specific mechanism for colon targeting. The article concludes by summarizing the limitations and potential of ETOCDDS to stimulate the development of innovative design approaches.

Abstract
The development of nanocomposite hydrogel dressings with adhesion and superior mechanical and wound infection inhibition characteristics for wound repair and skin regeneration is urgently needed for clinical applications. In this study, the adhesive piezoelectric antibacterial hydrogels with high expansibility, degradability, and adjustable rheological properties were innovatively prepared by a simple assembly process with carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS), tannic acid (TA), carbomer (CBM), and piezoelectric FeWO4 nanorods. As an exogenous mechanical wave, ultrasound can trigger the piezoelectric effect of FeWO4 and then effectively augment the generation of reactive oxygen species, exhibiting a superior antibacterial efficiency and preventing wound infection. In vitro and in vivo results have demonstrated that piezoelectric hydrogels can accelerate full-thickness skin wound healing in bacteria-infected mice by skin regeneration, inhibiting inflammatory response, increasing collagen deposition, and promoting angiogenesis. Such a discovery provides a representative paradigm for the rational design of piezoelectric hydrogel and effectively serves antibacterial and wound dressing fields.

Comparison of 5-ASA layered or matrix pellets coated with a combination of ethylcellulose and Eudragits L and S in the treatment of ulcerative colitis in rats. Int J Pharm 2023; 640:122981. [PMID: 37120124 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.122981] [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: 01/10/2023] [Revised: 04/07/2023] [Accepted: 04/20/2023] [Indexed: 05/01/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate and optimize the combination of time and pH-dependent polymers as a single coating for the design of the colon-specific drug delivery system of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) pellets. 5-ASA matrix pellets with a 70% drug load were prepared by the extrusion-spheronization method. The optimal coating formula which included Eudragit S (ES)+Eudragit L (EL)+Ethylcellulose (EC) was predicted for the targeted drug delivery to the colonic area by a 32 factorial design. The ratio of ES:EL:EC and coating level were considered as independent variables while the responses were the release of less than 10% of the drug within 2 h (Y1), the release of 60-70% within 10 h at pH 6.8 (Y2) and lag time of less than 1 h at pH 7.2 (Y3). Also, 5-ASA layered pellets were prepared by the powder layering of 5-ASA on nonpareils (0.4-0.6 mm) in a fluidized bed coater and then coated with the same optimum coating composition. The coated 5-ASA layered or matrix pellets were tested in a rat model of ulcerative colitis (UC) and compared with the commercial form of 5-ASA pellets (Pentasa®). The ratio of ES:EL:EC of 33:52:15 w/w at a coating level of 7% was discovered as the optimum coating for the delivery of 5-ASA matrix pellets to the colon. The coated 5-ASA pellets were spherical with uniform coating as shown by SEM and met all of our release criteria as predicted. In-vivo studies demonstrated that the optimum 5-ASA layered or matrix pellets had superior anti-inflammatory activities than Pentasa® in terms of colitis activity index (CAI), colon damage score (CDS), colon/body weight ratio and colon's tissue enzymes of glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA). The optimum coating formulation showed a high potential for colonic delivery of 5-ASA layered or matrix pellets and triggered drug release based on pH and time.

Optimization study of combined enteric and time-dependent polymethacrylates as a coating for colon targeted delivery of 5-ASA pellets in rats with ulcerative colitis. Eur J Pharm Sci 2021; 168:106072. [PMID: 34774715 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2021.106072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2021] [Revised: 10/07/2021] [Accepted: 11/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
Formulation design for colon-specific delivery of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) could bring some therapeutic benefits in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). In the current study, a 32 full factorial design was used to predict optimum coating composed of two enteric (poly methacrylic acid, methyl methacrylates 1:2 and 1:1) and time-dependent (poly ethyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, trimethylammonio ethyl methacrylate chloride 1:2:0.1) polymethacrylates for colon-specific delivery of 5-ASA pellets. A unique coating composition and coating level predicted by the model was applied onto either inulin-free 5-ASA pellets or inulin-bearing 5-ASA pellets and the coated pellets were examined by dissolution test in-vitro. The coated pellets were also tested in a rat model of UC and compared with the a commercially available colonic delivery system of 5-ASA. The ratio of the two enteric polymethacrylates and time-dependet polymethacrylate of 16:64:20 w/w at a coating level of 15% was discovered as the optimum coating for delivery of 5-ASA pellets to the colon. In general, the coated pellets offered a better therapeutic outcome compared to commercially available colonic delivery system of 5-ASA and uncoated pellets in terms of colitis activity index and the colon's tissue enzymes of MDA and GSH. It seems that the coating composed of enteric and pH-dependent polymethacrylates could tune up the rate of drug release from 5-ASA-coated pellets and trigger drug release based on pH and time.

Abstract
Purpose: The present study aimed at testing a new formulation of mesalazine linked to
chondroitin sulfate and its components alone in the treatment of actinic
proctitis in rats. Methods: Forty-seven female Wistar rats were submitted to pelvic radiation and divided
into eight groups: control A, mesalazine A, chondroitin A, and conjugate A,
gavage of the according substance two weeks after irradiation and sacrifice
three weeks after oral treatment; control C, mesalazine C, chondroitin C,
and conjugate C, sacrifice six weeks after oral treatment. The rectum was
submitted to histological characterization for each of the findings:
inflammatory infiltrate, epithelial degeneration, mucosal necrosis, and
fibrosis. Results: The inflammatory infiltrate was more intense in chondroitin A, mesalazine A,
and conjugate C. The collagen deposition was less intense in chondroitin A,
and mesalazine A, and more intense in control C. Conclusions: Mesalazine and chondroitin alone were efficacious in inducing a delayed
inflammatory response, hence reducing the late fibrosis. The conjugate was
able to induce an ever more delayed inflammatory response.

Abstract
A tunable release of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) could bring therapeutic benefits in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). A 32 factorial design was used to achieve a tuned delivery of 5-ASA pellets in the small and large intestine using a coating composed of inulin/Eudragit RS (RS). The ratio of inulin/RS and coating level were independent variables while the dependent variables were the percent of drug release at pH 1.2 in 2 h and total release of drug in 10 h at pH 6.8. 5-ASA release from pellets was examined at different pH levels and the therapeutic efficacy of the optimum pellets was compared to 5-ASA pellets of Pentasa in rats with ulcerative colitis. The inulin/RS of 18/82 at a coating level of 16% was found to be the optimum for delivery of the drug to the small and large intestine. The coated pellets offered a superior therapeutic outcome compared to uncoated pellets and Pentasa in terms of colitis activity index (CAI), and the colon's tissue enzymes of GSH and MDA. The optimum coating composed of inulin and RS could offer a tuned sustained release of 5-ASA throughout the small and large intestine with the sensitivity of drug release to microbial degradation.

Abstract
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is an umbrella term used to describe disorders that involve Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and pouchitis. The disease occurrence is more prevalent in the working group population which not only hampers the well being of an individual but also has negative economical impact on society. The current drug regime used therapy is very costly owing to the chronic nature of the disease leading to several side effects. The condition gets more aggravated due to the lower concentration of drug at the desired site. Therefore, in the present scenario, a therapy is needed which can maximize efficacy, adhere to quality of life, minimize toxicity and doses, be helpful in maintaining and stimulating physical growth of mucosa with minimum disease complications. In this aspect, nanotechnology intervention is one promising field as it can act as a carrier to reduce toxicity, doses and frequency which in turn help in faster recovery. Moreover, nanomedicine and nanodiagnostic techniques will further open a new window for treatment in understanding pathogenesis along with better diagnosis which is poorly understood till now. Therefore the present review is more focused on recent advancements in IBD in the application of nanotechnology.

Abstract
Eudragit® polymer has been widely used in film-coating for enhancing the quality of products over other materials (e.g., shellac or sugar). Eudragit® polymers are obtained synthetically from the esters of acrylic and methacrylic acid. For the last few years, they have shown immense potential in the formulations of conventional, pH-triggered, and novel drug delivery systems for incorporating a vast range of therapeutics including proteins, vitamins, hormones, vaccines, and genes. Different grades of Eudragit® have been used for designing and delivery of therapeutics at a specific site via the oral route, for instance, in stomach-specific delivery, intestinal delivery, colon-specific delivery, mucosal delivery. Further, these polymers have also shown their great aptitude in topical and ophthalmic delivery. Moreover, available literature evidences the promises of distinct Eudragit® polymers for efficient targeting of incorporated drugs to the site of interest. This review summarizes some potential researches that are being conducted by eminent scientists utilizing the distinct grades of Eudragit® polymers for efficient delivery of therapeutics at various sites of interest.

Abstract
The objective of the present work was to develop and optimize multiparticulate pH-dependent bioadhesive pellets of curcumin and cyclosporine for the management of intestinal bowel disease (IBD). The bioadhesive sustained release pellets were intended for targeting the affected site for an improved therapeutic effect. Bioadhesive pellet cores of curcumin and cyclosporine were formulated using Carbopol 940 (CP940) and hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC-H) by the extrusion/spheronization method, and drug delivery to the colon was controlled by the pH-sensitive polymer Eudragit® S100. Microcrystalline cellulose (Avicel PH101) was found to be the best forming agent for pellet core. The ratio of CP940 to HPC-H was kept at 1:1 to achieve 100% bioadhesion. The in vitro dissolution profiles of coated pellets depicted that 12.327 ± 0.342% of curcumin and 14.751 ± 0.112% of cyclosporine were released at the end of 6 h (at pH 6.8), whereas 71.278 ± 0.100% of curcumin and 76.76 ± 0.195% of cyclosporine were released at the end of 24 h (at pH 7.4). The drug release profile was found to follow zero-order kinetics for both drugs. The selected formulation was evaluated on an acetic acid-induced ulcerative colitis in the rat model to evaluate the efficiency of drug-loaded pellets coated with Eudragit®S100. The pharmacodynamic study revealed the therapeutic efficacy of Eudragit®S100-coated pellets of curcumin and cyclosporine in alleviating the conditions of the acetic acid-induced colitis model as reflected by weight gain as well as improvement of clinical, macroscopic and microscopic parameters of induced colitis, as compared with free curcumin and cyclosporine. The combination of curcumin and cyclosporine has been proven to have a synergistic effect for the successful management of IBD when used in a low dose as compared with individual drugs with high doses. Hence, curcumin- and cyclosporine-loaded bioadhesive pellets may act as a promising targeted drug delivery system in the management of IBD. Graphical abstract.

Time-sensitive and pH-dependent polymers are generally employed to prepare colon-site delivery system, and their coating thickness and order are very important in controlling the drug release. The traditional colon-site delivery systems consist of time-dependent polymers as inner layer and pH-sensitive polymers as outer layer. However, they suffer from low drug-loading rate and immature drug release. In this study, total alkaloids of sophora alopecuroides(TASA)-loaded pellets were prepared by extrusion-spheronization method and coated with Eudragit RS30D and Eudragit S100. Pellets using Eudragit RS30D as inner layer and Eudragit S100 as outer layer were named as ERS-ES100 TCO, while pellets with Eudragit S100 as inner layer and Eudragit RS30D as outer layer were ES100-ERS NCO. Both types of formulations with varying coating ratios and orders of Eudragit S100 and Eudragit RS30D were designed and prepared. The following in vitro drug release and SEM studies indicated that ERS-ES100 TCO(F2) with 12.8% Eudragit RS30D as inner layer and 21% Eudragit S100 as outer layer released up to 42% drug in 5 h. Interestingly, ES100-ERS NCO (F4) coated with 12.8% Eudragit S100 and 14.8% Eudragit RS30D showed optimal drug release in colon. In conclusion, ES100-ERS NCO colonic delivery system achieved reduced coating thickness and improved colonic targeting compared with traditional delivery system (ERS-ES100 TCO). In addition, the similarity factors (f2 ) value of sophoridine and matrine for investigated formulation were within 50-100 and > 80, demonstrating that sophoridine and matrine in all formulations achieved a synchronous release.

Abstract
Site-specific colon drug delivery is a practical approach for the treatment of local diseases of the colon with several advantages such as rapid onset of action and reduction of the dosage of the drug as well as minimization of harmful side effects. 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) is a drug of choice in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and colitis. For the efficient delivery of this drug, it is vital to prevent 5-ASA release in the upper part of the gastrointestinal tract and to promote its release in the proximal colon. Different approaches including chemical manipulation of drug molecule for production of prodrugs or modification of drug delivery systems using pH-dependent, time-dependent and/or bacterially biodegradable materials have been tried to optimize 5-ASA delivery to the colon. In the current review, the different strategies utilized in the design and development of an oral colonic delivery dosage form of 5-ASA are presented and discussed.

Abstract
Current treatments for intestinal diseases including inflammatory bowel diseases, irritable bowel syndrome, and colonic bacterial infections are typically small molecule oral dosage forms designed for systemic delivery. The intestinal permeability hurdle to achieve systemic delivery from oral formulations of macromolecules is challenging, but this drawback can be advantageous if an intestinal region is associated with the disease. There are some promising formulation approaches to release peptides, proteins, antibodies, antisense oligonucleotides, RNA, and probiotics in the colon to enable local delivery and efficacy. We briefly review colonic physiology in relation to the main colon-associated diseases (inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, infection, and colorectal cancer), along with the impact of colon physiology on dosage form design of macromolecules. We then assess formulation strategies designed to achieve colonic delivery of small molecules and concluded that they can also be applied some extent to macromolecules. We describe examples of formulation strategies in preclinical research aimed at colonic delivery of macromolecules to achieve high local concentration in the lumen, epithelial-, or sub-epithelial tissue, depending on the target, but with the benefit of reduced systemic exposure and toxicity. Finally, the industrial challenges in developing macromolecule formulations for colon-associated diseases are presented, along with a framework for selecting appropriate delivery technologies.

Abstract
Hydrogels are excellent drug delivery carriers with excellent ductility. Here, we report the design of a higher biostability of a recombinant human acidic fibroblast growth factor (rh-aFGF) carbomer hydrogel formulation. To verify the optimality of this formula, we prepared various prescriptions and tested the resulting physical properties including micromorphology, long-term stability, accelerated stability, and destructive test. Furthermore, the efficacy for promoting wound healing in full-thickness injury and scald wound diabetic rat models was explored. We found that rh-aFGF-carbomer hydrogel had good physical properties. It was stable for 24 months at 5 ± 3 °C, and for 6 months at 25 ± 3 °C. In vivo, the rh-aFGF-carbomer 940 hydrogel achieved a remarkable promotion of skin wound healing in diabetic rats with full-thickness injuries or scald wounds. Our data suggest that rh-aFGF-carbomer hydrogel may have applications for the treatment of diabetic ulcers combined with other wounds.

Abstract
Mesalamine (5-ASA) consists of the first-line therapy for the treatment of ulcerative colitis; however, it has low bioavailability, can cause several systemic adverse events, and has low treatment adherence due to the inconvenient dosing scheme. In this work, a new drug delivery system consisting of chondroitin sulfate linked to 5-ASA was synthesized using a carbodiimide as conjugating agent. The system was characterized by spectroscopic techniques (UV, ATR-FTIR, XRD, and NMR 1H) and thermal analysis (TG/DTG and DSC), suggesting the conjugation between the drug and the polymer. The in vitro release and the corresponding kinetics were also evaluated, revealing that approximately 40% of the drug linked was released at pH9 for up to 50h, following Higuchi's model. The conjugate did not show cytotoxicity for the human monocytic cell line at the doses tested, and an in vivo biodistribution study showed that the conjugate remained in the lower GIT for up to 8h with no uptake in the upper GIT. These data corroborate with the radiation found per segment of GIT and in blood. For this last test the conjugate was radiolabeled with Technetium-99m to allow the scintigraphy evaluation and radiation quantification. In conclusion, the polymeric conjugate was successfully synthesized and demonstrated a mucoadhesiveness on the colon as desired, thus supporting its potential use in the treatment of ulcerative colitis.

Abstract
A glycoside prodrug of 4-aminosalicylic acid (4-ASA) with d-glucose was synthesized for targeted drug delivery to inflammatory bowel. The in vitro assessment of 4-aminosalicylic acid-β-O-glucoside (4-ASA-Glu) as a colon-specific prodrug was studied using colitis rat with the healthy one as control. The stability studies in aqueous buffers (pH 1.2, 6.8 and 7.4) indicated that 4-ASA-Glu was stable over a period of 12 h. The incubation of 4-ASA-Glu with cecal or colonic contents of healthy rats at 37 °C released 4-ASA in 77 or 80% of the dose in 12 h, respectively. The amount of 4-ASA liberated from the incubation of 4-ASA-Glu in cecal or colonic contents of colitis rats at 37 °C was 69 or 79% in 12 h respectively, while less than 9% 4-ASA was detected from the incubation of 4-ASA-Glu with the homogenates of stomach or small intestine. The curative effect of 4-ASA-Glu was evaluated in 2, 4, 6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) induced experimental colitis model in male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. It was found that 4-ASA-Glu possess significantly ameliorate effect than sulfasalazine, oral 4- and 5-aminosalicylic acid.

Abstract
Hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) are one of the most promising carriers for effective drug delivery due to their large surface area, high volume for drug loading and excellent biocompatibility. However, the non-ionic surfactant templated HMSNs often have a broad size distribution and a defective mesoporous structure because of the difficulties involved in controlling the formation and organization of micelles for the growth of silica framework. In this paper, a novel "Eudragit assisted" strategy has been developed to fabricate HMSNs by utilising the Eudragit nanoparticles as cores and to assist in the self-assembly of micelle organisation. Highly dispersed mesoporous silica spheres with intact hollow interiors and through pores on the shell were fabricated. The HMSNs have a high surface area (670 m(2)/g), small diameter (120 nm) and uniform pore size (2.5 nm) that facilitated the effective encapsulation of 5-fluorouracil within HMSNs, achieving a high loading capacity of 194.5 mg(5-FU)/g(HMSNs). The HMSNs were non-cytotoxic to colorectal cancer cells SW480 and can be bioconjugated with Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) for efficient and specific cell internalization. The high specificity and excellent targeting performance of EGF grafted HMSNs have demonstrated that they can become potential intracellular drug delivery vehicles for colorectal cancers via EGF-EGFR interaction.
