Abstract
The purpose of this study was to design a drug-in-adhesive (DIA) patch for transdermal delivery of ketoprofen, using hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive as the matrix of the patch. The adhesion properties and skin permeation of the patches were examined, and in vivo pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of patches were evaluated. The novel ketoprofen patch with high adhesion was prepared by holt-melt method. The effects of different percentages of L-menthol on in vitro permeation were screened, 3% was added as the amount of permeation enhancer and the 24 h cumulative permeation amount(277.46 ± 15.58 µg/cm2) comparable to that of commercial patch MOHRUS®(279.74 ± 29.23 µg/cm2). Pharmacokinetic and the tissue distribution study showed no matter in plasma, muscle or skin, the drug concentration of self-made ketoprofen patch was equivalent to that of commercial patch. These data indicated that the self-made patch provided a new reference for the development of ketoprofen dosage forms and promising alternative strategy for analgesic treatment.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an immune-mediated disease that necessitates a thorough understanding of its intricate pathophysiological mechanism for precise and effective therapeutic targeting. The European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) has established guidelines for RA treatment, endorsing monotherapy or combination therapy with corticosteroids and synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (sDMARDs). This review delves into clinical trials and research outcomes related to combination drug delivery, with an emphasis on the role of natural products in combination with synthetic drugs. Given the significant adverse effects associated with systemic administration, topical delivery has emerged as an alternative avenue for effective management of RA.

Abstract
Assessment of pain responses and inflammation during animal surgery is difficult because traditional methods, such as visual analogue scores, are not applicable while under anaesthesia. Acute phase proteins (APPs), such as C-reactive protein and haptoglobin, that are typically monitored in veterinary research, do not show a significant change until at least 2 h post-surgery and therefore, immediate pathophysiological changes are uncertain. The current study used sequential window acquisition of all theoretical mass spectra (SWATH-MS) to investigate plasma proteome changes that occur immediately following surgery in dogs and also to assess the efficacy of a novel transdermal ketoprofen (TK) formulation. Castration was chosen as surgical model in this study. The procedure was performed on twelve dogs (n = 6 in two groups) and blood samples were collected at 0 h, 1 and 2 h after surgery for proteomic analysis. Following surgery, there was a general downregulation of proteins, including complement C- 3, complement factor B, complement factor D, transthyretin, and proteins associated with lipid, cholesterol, and glucose metabolisms, reflecting the systemic response to surgical trauma. Many of these changes were diminished in the transdermal group (TD) since ketoprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), inhibits prostanoids and the associated chemotactic neutrophil migration to site of tissue injury. SIGNIFICANCE: SWATH-MS Proteomic analysis revealed significant changes in plasma proteins, predominantly involved in early acute phase and inflammatory response at 1 & 2 h after surgery in castrated dogs. Pre-operative application of transdermal ketoprofen formulation had reduced the systemic immune response, which was confirmed by negligible alteration of proteins in transdermal treated group. A key outcome of this experiment was studying the efficacy of a novel transdermal NSAID formulation in dogs.

Abstract
This research aimed to investigate how the relationship between counter ion and diacerein (DCN) exerts an effect on the skin penetration of DCN ion-pair compounds. After the ion-pair compounds were formed by DCN and organic amines with different functional groups, the hydrogen bond of these compounds was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and molecular docking. The skin of porcine ears was employed to conduct the in vitro skin penetration, DCN - triethanolamine was the most potential candidate with the Q24h of 7.89 ± 0.38 µg/cm2 among organic amines with different functional groups. Whereas among the homologous fatty amine, the most permeable compound was DCN - lauryl amine with the Q24h of 11.28 ± 0.48 µg/cm2. Molecular simulation was employed to explore the relationship between counter ion and DCN. It was revealed by the bind energy curve that DCN had the strongest compatibility with triethanolamine among organic amines and laurylamine (N12) among fatty amines. It was amazingly found that the in vitro permeation fluxes of DCN ion-pair compounds would increase with enhancing the compatibility of counter ion and DCN. These findings broadened our understanding of how the relationship between drug and counter ion affects the skin penetration of ion-pair compounds.

Abstract
Methotrexate (MTX) as an anti-inflammatory drug for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) through oral and injectable administration is still problematic in the clinic. Herein, a MTX-loaded thermal-responsible flexible liposome (MTFL) incorporated within a carbomer-based gel was prepared as a novel transdermal agent (MTFL/Gel) for effective treatment of RA. It was found that MTFL had an average size of approximately 90 nm, which could rapidly release the drug under thermal conditions. The prepared MTFL/Gel could remarkably increase the MTX skin permeation as compared with free MTX, which was possibly due to the deformable membrane of flexible liposomes. Moreover, the results suggested MTFL/Gel could lead to a remarkably enhanced RA treatment when in combination with microwave hyperthermia. The superior ability of MTFL/Gel to alleviate RA response was attributed to the excellent skin permeation, thermal-responsible drug release, and synergistic anti-arthritic effect of MTX chemotherapy and microwave-induced hyperthermia therapy. Overall, the MTFL/Gel with dual deformable and thermal-responsible performances could be used as a novel promising transdermal agent for enhanced treatment of RA.

Abstract
The transdermal drug delivery system is an exceptionally safe and well-tolerable therapeutic approach that has immense potential for delivering active components against bone-related pathologies. However, its use is limited in the current clinical practices due to the low skin permeability of most active drugs in the formulation. Thus, innovations in the methodologies of skin permeation enhancement techniques are suggested to overcome this limitation. Although various transdermal drug delivery systems are studied to date, there are insufficient studies comparing the therapeutic efficacy of transdermal delivery systems to oral delivery systems. Thus, creating a decision-making dilemma between oral or transdermal therapies. Therefore, a timely review is inevitable to develop a platform for future researchers to develop next-generation transdermal drug delivery strategies against skeletal diseases that must be convenient and cost-effective for the patients with improved therapeutic efficacy. Here, we will outline the most recent strategies that can overcome the choice limitation of the drug and enhance the transdermal adsorption of various types of drugs to treat bone disorders. For the first time, in this review paper, we will highlight the preclinical and clinical studies on the different transdermal delivery methods. Thus, providing insight into the current therapeutic approaches and suggesting new directions for the advancements in transdermal drug delivery systems against bone disorders.

Abstract
Eye drops containing Tranilast (TL), N-(3,4-dimethoxycinnamoyl) anthramilic acid, are used as an anti-allergic conjunctivitis drug in the ophthalmic field. Traditional eye drops are very patient compliant, although the bioavailability (BA) of most eye drops is low since eye drops cannot be instilled beyond the capacity of the conjunctival sac due to its limited volume. Thus, traditional eye drops have low BA and a short duration of the drug on the ocular surface, so solutions to these problems are highly anticipated. In this study, we designed a sustained-release drug-delivery system (DDS) for TL nanoparticles. TL nanoparticles were prepared by bead mill treatment, and the gel formulations containing TL nanoparticles (TL-NPs-Gel, particle size 50 nm–100 nm) were provided by carboxypolymethylene. The crystal structure of TL with and without bead mill treatment is the same, but the TL solubility in formulations containing nanoparticles was 5.3-fold higher compared with gel formulations containing TL microparticles (TL-MPs-Gel). The photo and thermal stabilities of TL-NPs-Gel are also higher than those of dissolved TL. Moreover, when TL-NPs-Gel is applied to the upper eyelid skin (outside), the TL is released as nanoparticles, and delivered to the lacrimal fluid through the meibomian glands. In addition, the TL release profile for TL-NPs-Gel was sustained over 180 min after the treatment. These findings can be used to develop a sustained-release DDS in the ophthalmic field.

Abstract
This study designed the transdermal formulations containing indomethacin (IMC)—1% IMC was crushed with 0.5% methylcellulose and 5% 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin by the bead mill method, and the milled IMC was gelled with or without 2% l-menthol (a permeation enhancer) by Carbopol® 934 (without menthol, N-IMC gel; with menthol, N-IMC/MT gel). In addition, the drug release, skin penetration and percutaneous absorption of the N-IMC/MT gel were investigated. The particle sizes of N-IMC gel were approximately 50–200 nm, and the combination with l-menthol did not affect the particle characterization of the transdermal formulations. In an in vitro experiment using a Franz diffusion cell, the skin penetration in N-IMC/MT gel was enhanced than the N-IMC gel, and the percutaneous absorption (AUC) from the N-IMC/MT gel was 2-fold higher than the N-IMC gel. On the other hand, the skin penetration from the N-IMC/MT gel was remarkably attenuated at a 4 °C condition, a temperature that inhibits all energy-dependent endocytosis. In conclusion, this study designed transdermal formulations containing IMC solid nanoparticles and l-menthol, and found that the combination with l-menthol enhanced the skin penetration of the IMC solid nanoparticles. In addition, the energy-dependency of the skin penetration of IMC solid nanoparticles was demonstrated. These findings suggest the utility of a transdermal drug delivery system to provide the easy application of solid nanoparticles (SNPs).

Abstract
The molecular states of ketoprofen and the interaction between ketoprofen and other pharmaceutical excipients in the matrix layer were examined to determine their effect on the pharmaceutical properties of original and generic ketoprofen dermal patches (generic patches A and B). Molecular states of ketoprofen were evaluated using polarized light microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. For the original ketoprofen patch, crystalline components were not observed in the matrix layer. However, crystalline ketoprofen was observed in the two generic ketoprofen patches. Moreover, the ketoprofen exhibited hydrogen bonding with the pharmaceutical excipients or patch materials in the generic products. Skin permeation of ketoprofen from the patches was evaluated using hairless mouse skin. Twelve hours after application, the original patch demonstrated the highest level of cumulative skin permeation of ketoprofen. This was followed by generic patch B while generic patch A showed the lowest level of permeation. Fluxes were calculated from the skin permeation profiles. The original patch was approx. 2.4-times faster compared with generic patch A and approximately 1.9-times faster compared with generic patch B. This investigation suggested that pharmaceutical properties such as skin permeability for these types of products are affected by the precipitation of crystalline ketoprofen in the matrix layer and the interaction of ketoprofen with the pharmaceutical excipients or patch materials.

Abstract
Over the last few decade Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) are the drugs of choice for treating numerous inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis. The NSAIDs produces anti-inflammatory activity via inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzyme, responsible for the conversation of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. Likewise, cyclooxegenase-2 inhibitors (COX-2) selectively inhibit the COX-2 enzyme and produces significant anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anti-pyretic activity without producing COX-1 associated gastrointestinal and renal side effects. In last two decades numerous selective COX-2 inhibitors (COXIBs) have been developed and approved for various inflammatory conditions. However, data from clinical trials have suggested that the prolong use of COX-2 inhibitors are also associated with life threatening cardiovascular side effects including ischemic heart failure and myocardial infection. In these scenario secondary metabolites from natural product offers a great hope for the development of novel anti-inflammatory compounds. Although majority of the natural product based compounds exhibit more selectively toward COX-1. However, the data suggest that slight structural modification can be helpful in developing COX-2 selective secondary metabolites with comparative efficacy and limited side effects. This review is an effort to highlight the secondary metabolites from terrestrial and marine source with significant COX-2 and COX-2 mediated PGE2 inhibitory activity, since it is anticipated that isolates with ability to inhibit COX-2 mediated PGE2 production would be useful in suppressing the inflammation and its classical sign and symptoms. Moreover, this review has highlighted the potential lead compounds including berberine, kaurenoic acid, α-cyperone, curcumin, and zedoarondiol for further development with the help of structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies and their current status.

Abstract
Purpose In the clinical setting, raloxifene, a second-generation selective estrogen receptor modulator, is administered orally; however, the bioavailability (BA) is only 2% because of its poor solubility in aqueous fluids and its extensive first-pass metabolism. Therefore, it is expected that the development of a transdermally delivered formulation may reduce the necessary dose without compromising its therapeutic efficacy. In this study, we designed transdermal formulations containing raloxifene nanoparticles and evaluated their usefulness for osteoporosis therapy. Methods Raloxifene was crushed with methylcellulose by the bead mill method, and the milled raloxifene was gelled with or without menthol (a permeation enhancer) by Carbopol® 934 (without menthol, Ral-NPs; with menthol, mRal-NPs). The drug release and transdermal penetration were measured using a Franz diffusion cell, and the therapeutic evaluation of osteoporosis was determined in an ovariectomized rat model. Results The mean particle size of raloxifene in the transdermal formulation (Ral-NPs) was 173.7 nm. Although the raloxifene released from Ral-NPs remained in the nanoparticle state, the skin penetration of raloxifene nanoparticles was prevented by the stratum corneum in rat. On the other hand, inclusion of menthol in the formulation attenuated the barrier function of the stratum corneum and permitted the penetration of raloxifene nanoparticles through the skin. Moreover, macropinocytosis relates to the skin penetration of the formulation including menthol (mRal-NPs), since penetration was inhibited by treatment with 2 µM rottlerin, a macropinocytosis inhibitor. In addition, the application of 0.3% mRal-NPs (once a day) attenuated the decreases in calcium level and stiffness of the bones of ovariectomized rat. Conclusion We prepared raloxifene solid nanoparticles by a bead mill method and designed a novel transdermal formulation containing nanoparticles and permeation enhancers. These trans-dermal formulations overcome the barrier properties of the skin and show high drug penetration through the transdermal route (BA 8.5%). In addition, we found that raloxifene transdermal formulations are useful for the treatment of osteoporosis in ovariectomized rat.

[PMID: 30041452 PMCID: PMC6073289 DOI: 10.3390/ijms19072138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2018] [Revised: 07/17/2018] [Accepted: 07/20/2018] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
We previously designed a novel transdermal formulation containing ketoprofen solid nanoparticles (KET-NPs formulation), and showed that the skin penetration from the KET-NPs formulation was higher than that of a transdermal formulation containing ketoprofen microparticles (KET-MPs formulation). However, the precise mechanism for the skin penetration from the KET-NPs formulation was not clear. In this study we investigated whether energy-dependent endocytosis relates to the transdermal delivery from a 1.5% KET-NPs formulation. Transdermal formulations were prepared by a bead mill method using additives including methylcellulose and carbopol 934. The mean particle size of the ketoprofen nanoparticles was 98.3 nm. Four inhibitors of endocytosis dissolved in 0.5% DMSO (54 μM nystatin, a caveolae-mediated endocytosis inhibitor; 40 μM dynasore, a clathrin-mediated endocytosis inhibitor; 2 μM rottlerin, a macropinocytosis inhibitor; 10 μM cytochalasin D, a phagocytosis inhibitor) were used in this study. In the transdermal penetration study using a Franz diffusion cell, skin penetration through rat skin treated with cytochalasin D was similar to the control (DMSO) group. In contrast to the results for cytochalasin D, skin penetration from the KET-NPs formulation was significantly decreased by treatment with nystatin, dynasore or rottlerin with penetrated ketoprofen concentration-time curves (AUC) values 65%, 69% and 73% of control, respectively. Furthermore, multi-treatment with all three inhibitors (nystatin, dynasore and rottlerin) strongly suppressed the skin penetration from the KET-NPs formulation with an AUC value 13.4% that of the control. In conclusion, we found that caveolae-mediated endocytosis, clathrin-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis are all related to the skin penetration from the KET-NPs formulation. These findings provide significant information for the design of nanomedicines in transdermal formulations.

[PMID: 29695042 PMCID: PMC6099731 DOI: 10.3390/molecules23050987] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2018] [Revised: 04/18/2018] [Accepted: 04/19/2018] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Microdialysis, a sampling method for pharmacokinetics–pharmacodynamics (PK–PD) modeling in preclinical and clinical studies, is a convenient in vivo sampling technique. Geniposide (GE), an iridoid glycoside compound, is the major active ingredient of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis fruit which has an anti-inflammatory effect. In this study, an articular cavity microdialysis sampling system for adjuvant arthritic (AA) rats was established to study the effect of GE on the release of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in AA rats induced by Freund’s complete adjuvant (FCA). An UHPLC-MS/MS method was developed to determine the concentrations of GE and PGE2 in the dialysate. Through the determination of drug concentrations and PGE2 efficacy levels in the dialysate, the developed methods were successfully applied to set up concentration–time and effect–time profiles followed by PK–PD modeling of GE’s effect on decreasing PGE2 release after oral administration of GE. The effect was well described by the developed PK–PD modeling, indicating that GE may play an anti-inflammatory role via decreasing AA-induced elevated PGE2 levels. In the selection of suitable endogenous small molecules as effect markers, the establishment of AA rat joint-cavity microdialysis is an attractive technique for rational PK–PD studies.

Abstract
Pain is the most common syndrome in rheumatology. NSAIDs are often used in its treatment. But they have limitations associated with side effects. An advantage of topical drugs and physical factors (electrophoresis, phonophoresis) combination is the use of low doses of the drug and a decrease in time, to achieve a therapeutic effect, reduce the risk of adverse reactions, increase the concentration of the drug in the inflammation focus, prolonged action (creating a drug depot in tissues). Ketoprofen gel (“Artrocol gel”) is one of the representatives of this pharmacological group. Physicochemical properties help ketoprofen to penetrate easily through the skin and create a therapeutic concentration in the underlying tissues.
Objective.
To assess the effectiveness of ketoprofen gel (“Arthrocol gel”) electrophonophoresis in the treatment of pain in rheumatological patients.
Materials and methods.
The study was carried out on the basis of Physiotherapy Department of Vinnytsia Regional Clinical Hospital named after M. I. Pirogov. All patients treated according to the unified clinical protocols were divided into experimental group (EG) and control group (CG). Patients of EG (98 persons) underwent electrophonophoresis with ketoprofen gel once a day for a week. In CG (43 persons) ketoprofen gel was used without electrophonophoresis. The intensity of the pain syndrome is monitored using a visual analog scale (VAS) of Huskisson at rest and during movement. A week later, the patient and the doctor evaluated satisfaction with the results of treatment on the scale: not effective, insufficient, satisfactory, good, excellent.
Results.
There was a persistent decrease in the intensity of pain syndrome in patients of both groups. The VAS scores were lower in the EG starting from the 3rd day of treatment. The intensity of the acute pain syndrome after 1-week treatment at rest (t = 4.71, p < 0.001) and during the movement (t = 3.84, p < 0.001) more decrease in EG. Satisfaction with the results of treatment was higher in EG.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
The study aimed to prepare a transdermal patch for flurbiprofen using isopulegol decanoate (ISO-C10) as a permeation enhancer, and to evaluate the in-vitro and in-vivo percutaneous permeation of the drug, as well as the pharmacodynamic efficacy of the formulation.
Methods
The permeation experiments were conducted on rabbit skin, and the pharmacokinetic profiles and synovial fluid drug concentration were measured after in-vivo transdermal administration. A deconvolution approach was employed to analyse the correlation between the in-vitro and in-vivo drug permeation. The anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects were, respectively, assessed using the adjuvant arthritis model and the acetic acid induced pain model.
Key findings
ISO-C10 could increase the in-vitro permeation of flurbiprofen from 46.22 ± 5.65 μg/cm2 to 101.07 ± 10.85 μg/cm2. The in-vivo absorption of the drug was also improved by the enhancer, and a good linear correlation was observed between the in-vitro and in-vivo drug permeation. Meanwhile, the ISO-C10 contained patches increased the drug disposition in synovial fluid and enhanced the pharmacodynamic efficacy of the formulation.
Conclusions
ISO-C10 would be a promising permeation enhancer for improving the in-vitro and in-vivo delivery of flurbiprofen from its transdermal patches.

Abstract
The most common treatments for rheumatoid arthritis include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), corticosteroids, disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), and some biological agents. However, none of the treatments available is able to achieve the ultimate goal of treatment, that is, drug-free remission. This limitation has shifted the focus of treatment to delivery strategies with an ability to deliver the drugs into the synovial cavity in the proper dosage while mitigating side effects to other tissues. A number of approaches like microemulsions, microspheres, liposomes, microballoons, cocrystals, nanoemulsions, dendrimers, microsponges, and so forth, have been used for intrasynovial delivery of these drugs. Amongst these, liposomes have proven to be very effective for retaining the drug in the synovial cavity by virtue of their size and chemical composition. The fast clearance of intra-synovially administered drugs can be overcome by use of liposomes leading to increased uptake of drugs by the target synovial cells, which in turn reduces the exposure of nontarget sites and eliminates most of the undesirable effects associated with therapy. This review focuses on the use of liposomes in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and summarizes data relating to the liposome formulations of various drugs. It also discusses emerging trends of this promising technology.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bioavailability of drugs in the synovial fluid when administered via transdermal route is highly limited due to the dermal clearance. The purpose of this project was to assess the efficiency of ChilDrive (CD) technique to improve the drug targeting to the synovial fluid. CD is a technique of transdermal delivery of drugs combining regional hypothermia and iontophoresis. METHODS Diclofenac sodium and Prednisolone sodium phosphate were administered by transdermal route (Passive, Iontophoresis, Chil-Passive and ChilDrive) at the knee-joint region of hind limb in sprague dawley rats for 6 h. Intraarticular microdialysis was carried out to determine the time course of drug concentration in the synovial fluid. Drug levels in synovial fluid after intravenous and intraarticular administration were also determined. RESULTS Iontophoretic delivery increased the AUC(0-t) (area under the curve) of drugs in the synovial fluid by 3-fold over passive delivery (0.86 +/- 0.04 and 2.0 +/- 0.06 microg.h/ml for diclofenac sodium and prednisolone sodium phosphate, respectively). CD resulted in an AUC(0-t) of 5.2 +/- 0.69 and 24.6 +/- 1.97 microg.h/ml for diclofenac sodium and prednisolone sodium phosphate which was approximately 6-12-fold higher than the passive and 2-4-fold higher than iontophoresis. CONCLUSIONS The results support our hypothesis that CD improves bioavailability of drugs to the synovial joints. CD could be developed as a potential noninvasive technique for treatment of arthritis.
