Borneol and lactoferrin dual-modified crocetin-loaded nanoliposomes enhance neuroprotection in HT22 cells and brain targeting in mice. Eur J Med Chem 2024; 276:116674. [PMID: 39004017 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2024.116674] [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: 05/26/2024] [Revised: 06/26/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
Crocetin (CCT), a natural bioactive compound extracted and purified from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb saffron, has been shown to play a role in neurodegenerative diseases, particularly depression. However, due to challenges with solubility, targeting, and bioavailability, formulation development and clinical use of CCT are severely limited. In this study, we used the emulsification-reverse volatilization method to prepare CCT-loaded nanoliposomes (CN). We further developed a borneol (Bor) and lactoferrin (Lf) dual-modified CCT-loaded nanoliposome (BLCN) for brain-targeted delivery of CCT. The results of transmission electron microscope (TEM) and particle size analysis indicated that the size of BLCN (∼140 nm) was suitable for transcellular transport across olfactory axons (∼200 nm), potentially paving a direct path to the brain. Studies on lipid solubility, micropolarity, and hydrophobicity showed that BLCN had a relatively high Lf grafting rate (81.11 ± 1.33 %) and CCT entrapment efficiency (83.60 ± 1.04 %) compared to other liposomes, likely due to Bor improving the lipid solubility of Lf, and the combination promoting the orderly arrangement of liposome membrane molecules. Microplate reader and fluorescence microscopy analysis showed that BLCN efficiently promoted the endocytosis of fluorescent coumarin 6 into HT22 cells with a maximal fluorescence intensity of (13.48 ± 0.80 %), which was significantly higher than that of CCT (5.73 ± 1.17 %) and CN (12.13 ± 1.01 %). BLCN also exhibited sustained function, remaining effective for more than 12 h after reaching a peak at 1 h in cells, while CN showed a significant decrease after 4 h. The uptake mechanisms of BLCN in HT22 cells mainly involve energy-dependent, caveolae-mediated, and microtubule-mediated endocytosis, as well as micropinocytosis. Furthermore, BLCN displayed a significant neuroprotective effect on HT22 cells in glutamate-, corticosterone-, and H2O2-induced models. Tissue fluorescence image analysis of mice showed that BLCN exhibited substantial retention of fluorescent DiR in the brain after nasal administration for 12 h. These findings suggest that CCT has the potential for cellular uptake, neuroprotection, and targeted delivery to the brain following intranasal administration when encapsulated in Bor and Lf dual-modified nanoliposomes.

Abstract
Microfluidics has emerged as a transformative force in the field of drug delivery, offering innovative avenues to produce a diverse range of nano drug delivery systems. Thanks to its precise manipulation of small fluid volumes and its exceptional command over the physicochemical characteristics of nanoparticles, this technology is notably able to enhance the pharmacokinetics of drugs. It has initiated a revolutionary phase in the domain of drug delivery, presenting a multitude of compelling advantages when it comes to developing nanocarriers tailored for the delivery of poorly soluble medications. These advantages represent a substantial departure from conventional drug delivery methodologies, marking a paradigm shift in pharmaceutical research and development. Furthermore, microfluidic platformsmay be strategically devised to facilitate targeted drug delivery with the objective of enhancing the localized bioavailability of pharmaceutical substances. In this paper, we have comprehensively investigated a range of significant microfluidic techniques used in the production of nanoscale drug delivery systems. This comprehensive review can serve as a valuable reference and offer insightful guidance for the development and optimization of numerous microfluidics-fabricated nanocarriers.

Abstract
In recent years, owing to the miniaturization of the fluidic environment, microfluidic technology offers unique opportunities for the implementation of nano drug delivery systems (NDDSs) production processes. Compared with traditional methods, microfluidics improves the controllability and uniformity of NDDSs. The fast mixing and laminar flow properties achieved in the microchannels can tune the physicochemical properties of NDDSs, including particle size, distribution and morphology, resulting in narrow particle size distribution and high drug-loading capacity. The success of lipid nanoparticles encapsulated mRNA vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 by microfluidics also confirmed its feasibility for scaling up the preparation of NDDSs via parallelization or numbering-up. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of microfluidics-based NDDSs, including the fundamentals of microfluidics, microfluidic synthesis of NDDSs, and their industrialization. The challenges of microfluidics-based NDDSs in the current status and the prospects for future development are also discussed. We believe that this review will provide good guidance for microfluidics-based NDDSs.

Abstract
Cerasomes are a promising modification of liposomes with covalent siloxane networks on the surface that provide outstanding morphological stability while maintaining all the useful traits of liposomes. Herein, thin film hydration and ethanol sol injection methods were utilized to produce cerasomes of various composition, which were then evaluated for the purpose of drug delivery. The most promising nanoparticles obtained by the thin film method were studied closely using MTT assay, flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy on T98G glioblastoma cell line and modified with surfactants to achieve stability and the ability to bypass the blood-brain barrier. An antitumor agent, paclitaxel, was loaded into cerasomes, which increased its potency and demonstrated increased ability to induce apoptosis in T98G glioblastoma cell culture. Cerasomes loaded with fluorescent dye rhodamine B demonstrated significantly increased fluorescence in brain slices of Wistar rats compared to free rhodamine B. Thin film hydration with Tween 80 addition was established as a more reliable and versatile method for cerasome preparation. Cerasomes increased the antitumor action of paclitaxel toward T98G cancer cells by a factor of 36 and were able to deliver rhodamine B over the blood-brain barrier in rats.

Abstract
A simple and sensitive electrochemical cholesterol biosensor was fabricated based on ceramic-coated liposome (cerasome) and graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with good conductivity. The cerasome consists of a lipid-bilayer membrane and a ceramic surface as a soft biomimetic interface, and the mild layer-by-layer self-assembled method as the immobilization strategy on the surface of the modified electrode was used, which can provide good biocompatibility to maintain the biological activity of cholesterol oxidase (ChOx). The GQDs promoted electron transport between the enzyme and the electrode more effectively. The structure of the cerasome-forming lipid was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR). The morphology and characteristics of the cerasome and GQDs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), zeta potential, photoluminescence spectra (PL), etc. The proposed biosensors revealed excellent catalytic performance to cholesterol with a linear concentration range of 16.0 × 10-6-6.186 × 10-3 mol/L, with a low detection limit (LOD) of 5.0 × 10-6 mol/L. The Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) of ChOx was 5.46 mmol/L, indicating that the immobilized ChOx on the PEI/GQDs/PEI/cerasome-modified electrode has a good affinity to cholesterol. Moreover, the as-fabricated electrochemical biosensor exhibited good stability, anti-interference ability, and practical application for cholesterol detection.

Abstract
10-HCPT is a topoisomerase I inhibitor effective in the treatment of liver cancer but its use is hampered by its resistance. The expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) is reportedly upregulated in liver cancer tissues, which is directly linked to the resistance of 10-HCPT. While BBR can significantly decrease the level of HIF-1α according to the literature report. Thus, the aim of this study was to prepare a novel intravenous 10-HCPT-BBR-loaded lipid microsphere (LM) and evaluate their synergistic effect on liver cancer treatment. The optimal preparation mainly included 10.0% oil phase (medium-chain triglyceride:long-chain triglyceride = 1:1), emulsifier (egg lecithin E80 and pluronic F68), antioxidant (0.02% NaHSO3), and pH regulator (0.1 mol/L Hcl). Then, the behaviors of BBR-10-HCPT loaded LM in vitro and in vivo were systematically investigated. In vitro, it showed an obvious sustained-release effect in different release mediums, good physicochemical stability at accelerated and long-term storage conditions, and great anti-proliferative capability toward human liver cancer Hep-3B cells. In vivo, the prepared LM exhibited a longer half-life and higher AUC compared to BBR injection and 10-HCPT injection. More importantly, it was found that The LM was distributed more in the liver, spleen, and tumors, but less in the lungs and heart, especially in the lung. And then, it showed significant inhibition of tumor growth against nude mouse with Hep-3B tumor, and the tumor inhibition rate reached 91.55%. Thus, the data obtained in our study suggested that BBR combined with 10-HCPT can raise curative effect and reduce the toxicity of 10-HCPT.

Abstract
The current study is aimed to fabricate doxorubicin (Dox) loaded mild temperature responsive liposomes (MTLs) by thin film hydration technique for enhanced in vitro and in vivo anticancer efficacy against hepatocellular carcinoma. The aforementioned Dox loaded MTLs were developed and optimized with extrusion and drug loading techniques. The optimized MTLs were in optimum size range (118.20 ± 2.81–187.13 ± 4.15 nm), colloidal stability (−13.27 ± 0.04 to −32.34 ± 0.15 mV), and enhanced entrapment of Dox (28.71 ± 2.01–79.24 ± 2.16). Furthermore, the optimized formulation (MTL1-E(AL)) embodied improved physicochemical stability deducted by Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy and mild hyperthermia-based phase transition demonstrated from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). An in vitro drug release study revealed mild hyperthermia assisted rapid in vitro Dox release from MTLs-E(AL) (T100% ≈ 1 h) by Korsmeyer–Peppas model based Fickian diffusion (n < 0.45). Likewise, an in vitro cytotoxicity study and lower IC50 values also symbolized mild hyperthermia (40.2 °C) based quick and improved cytotoxicity of MTL1-E(AL) in HepG2 and MCF-7 cells than Dox. The fluorescence microscopy also represented enhanced cellular internalization of MTL1-E(AL) at mild hyperthermia compared to the normothermia (37.2 °C). In addition, an in vivo animal study portrayed the safety, improved anticancer efficacy and healing of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) through MTL1-E(AL). In brief, the Dox loaded MTLs could be utilized as safe and effective therapeutic strategy against HCC.

Abstract
Encapsulation of cargoes in nanocontainers is widely used in different fields to solve the problems of their solubility, homogeneity, stability, protection from unwanted chemical and biological destructive effects, and functional activity improvement. This approach is of special importance in biomedicine, since this makes it possible to reduce the limitations of drug delivery related to the toxicity and side effects of therapeutics, their low bioavailability and biocompatibility. This review highlights current progress in the use of lipid systems to deliver active substances to the human body. Various lipid compositions modified with amphiphilic open-chain and macrocyclic compounds, peptide molecules and alternative target ligands are discussed. Liposome modification also evolves by creating new hybrid structures consisting of organic and inorganic parts. Such nanohybrid platforms include cerasomes, which are considered as alternative nanocarriers allowing to reduce inherent limitations of lipid nanoparticles. Compositions based on mesoporous silica are beginning to acquire no less relevance due to their unique features, such as advanced porous properties, well-proven drug delivery efficiency and their versatility for creating highly efficient nanomaterials. The types of silica nanoparticles, their efficacy in biomedical applications and hybrid inorganic-polymer platforms are the subject of discussion in this review, with current challenges emphasized.

Abstract
New liposomes modified with pyrrolidinium surfactants containing a hydroxyethyl fragment (CnPB, n = 12, 14, 16) were prepared for transdermal delivery of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. In order to obtain the optimal composition, the surfactant/lipid molar ratio (0.02/1; 0.029/1; 0.04/1) and the amphiphile hydrocarbon tail length were varied. Rhodamine B was loaded in all formulations, while meloxicam and ketoprofen in selected ones. For liposomes studied the hydrodynamic diameter was in the range of 80-130 nm, the zeta potential ranged from +35 to +50 mV, EE was 75-99%. Liposome modification leads to a prolonged release of the rhodamine B (up to 10-12 h) and faster release of non-steroidal drugs (up to 7-8 h) in vitro. The ability to cross the skin barrier using Franz cells was investigated for liposomal meloxicam and ketoprofen. The total amount of meloxicam and ketoprofen passed through the Strat-M® membranes during 51 h was 51-114 μg/cm2 and 87-105 μg/cm2 respectively. The evaluation of transdermal diffusion ex vivo showed that total amount of liposomal ketoprofen passed through the skin during 51 h was 140-162 μg/cm2. Liposomes modified with C16PB were found as the most effective inflammation reducing formulation in the carrageenan edema model of rat paw.

Abstract
Bio-orthogonal inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reactions between liposomes containing a tetrazine-based (Tz) compound and 2-norbornene (2-NB) could be a novel trigger for accelerating drug release from the liposomes via temporary membrane destabilization, as shown in our previous report. Herein, we evaluated the in vitro drug release using NB derivatives with carboxyl groups [5-norbornene-2-carboxylic acid (NBCOOH) and 5-norbornene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid (NB(COOH)2)] to investigate the effects of substituents at the NB backbone on the drug release rate. First, POTz-liposome composed of a Tz compound (2-hexadecyl-N-(6-(6-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazin-3-yl)pyridin-3-yl)octadecanamide) and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (POPC) were prepared. The mass spectrometry analysis revealed the binding of NB derivatives to the Tz compound via the IEDDA reaction after the POTz-liposome reacted with the NB derivatives. Indium-111-labeled diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (111In-DTPA) was encapsulated inside the liposomes, and the drug release rate was quantified by measuring radioactivity. At 24 h after incubation with 2-NB, NBCOOH, and NB(COOH)2, the release rates of 111In-DTPA from POTz-liposome were 21.0, 80.8, and 23.3%, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of POTz-liposome that was not treated with NB derivatives (4.2%), indicating the involvement of the IEDDA reaction for prompting drug release. Additionally, a thermodynamic evaluation using Langmuir monolayers was conducted to explore the mechanism of the accelerated drug release. An increase in membrane fluidity and a reduction in intermolecular repulsion between POPC and the Tz compound were observed after the reaction with NB derivatives, especially for NBCOOH. Thus, the IEDDA reaction in the liposomal membrane could be a potent trigger for accelerating the release of encapsulated drugs by regulating membrane fluidity and intermolecular repulsion in the liposomal membrane.
