RSC Adv 2023; 13:22172-22184. [PMID: 37520754 PMCID: PMC10372540 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra02521g] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023] Open
Abstract
In this work, the solubility of resmetirom (form A) was initially measured in heptane and seven alcohol solvents by gravimetric methods. Then, the transformation temperature between form A and ethanol solvate was determined at 333.76 K. Subsequently, some commonly used models were applied to fit the solubility data, and it was found that the modified Apelblat equation and the Jouyban-Acree-van't Hoff (J-A-V) model achieved the highest correlation accuracy for those in mono-solvents and heptane + propanol, respectively. And the average relative deviation (ARD) values of models were less than 0.5%, indicating a good agreement with the experimental results. Additionally, through density functional theory calculation and the analysis of solvent parameters, it was observed that hydrogen-bonding played primary roles in the dissolution process of resmetirom. The multiple factors such as the polarity of solvent, active site interaction, the molecular size and free volume all affect the solubility of resmetirom. Furthermore, by comparing the experimental and simulated infrared spectra of form A and two alcohol solvates, five characteristic bands were selected for quantification. Partial least squares regression (PLSR), a multivariate statistical analysis method, was used to extract quantitative information. The quantitative analysis model was established based on specific wavelength intervals, which were associated with inter-molecular interactions. Combined with PLSR, a new high-precision quantitative method was established to study the solid transformation process between form A and solvates. From 303.15 to 323.15 K, the rate of transformation from form A to methanol solvate or ethanol solvate was decreased with increasing temperature, revealing that the transformation process was driven by the solubility difference between form A and solvates under the studied conditions. This research will definitely afford necessary solubility data and solvent selection for the design of the crystallization process of resmetirom (form A) in industry, and provide basic data for the production of resmetirom (form A) in the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
The unscientific application of pesticides can easily cause a series of ecological environmental safety issues, which seriously restrict the sustainable development of modern agriculture. The great progress in nanotechnology has allowed the continuous development of plant protection strategies. The nanonization and delivery of pesticides offer many advantages, including their greater absorption and conduction by plants, improved efficacy, reduced dosage, delayed resistance, reduced residues, and protection from natural enemies and beneficial insects. In this review, we focus on the recent advances in multifunctional nanoparticles and nanopesticides. The definition of nanopesticides, the types of nanoparticles used in agriculture and their specific synergistic mechanisms are introduced, their safety is evaluated, and their future application prospects, about which the public is concerned, are examined.

Abstract
Prothioconazole (PTC) has been widely utilized for plant fungal disease control, but its metabolite prothioconazole-desthio (PTC-d) exhibits reproductive toxicity. In the present study, carbon quantum dot (CQD)-modified fluorescent double-hollow shelled mesoporous silica nanoparticles (FL-MSNs) loaded with PTC, referred to as PTC@FL-MSNs, were constructed with an average size of 369 nm and a loading capacity of 28.1 wt %, which could increase the antifungal efficiency of PTC. In addition, upright fluorescence microscope and UPLC-MS/MS studies showed that PTC@FL-MSNs could be effectively transported via root uptake and foliar spray in soybean plants. Compared to a 30% PTC dispersible oil suspension agent, the PTC@FL-MSN treatment group showed higher concentrations (leaves: 0.50 > 0.48 mg/kg), longer half-lives for degradation (leaves: 3.62 > 3.21 d; roots: 3.39 > 2.82 d), and fewer metabolites. These findings suggest that sustained pesticide release and toxicity reduction are potential applications for PTC nanofungicide delivery technology.

Abstract
Most of the widely used drugs have problems associated with their oral bioavailability either due to their poor aqueous solubility or due to their poor permeability. Co-crystallization is an efficient and economically feasible approach that offers a great opportunity for improvement in physicochemical properties such as solubility, stability, and bioavailability of such type of therapeutic agent. Selection of the best co-former plays a major role in co-crystallization. Various approaches have been developed for the selection of suitable co-formers with API. In recent years in silico screening, a computational tool paying more attention for screening of co-formers has been developed. Numerous approaches can be used for in silico screening such as the Autodocking tool, COSMORS, COSMOTHERM, etc. Autodocking can predict several numbers of co-former effectively screened in silico method to identify a suitable co-former with an API. Prediction of solubility and dissolution is also important for the development of co-crystal. In this review, we discuss in silico screening of coformer and thermodynamic approaches to determine the dissolution and solubility of co-crystal specially with reference to the drugs belonging to BCS class II group.

Abstract
Prothioconazole (PTC) is a widely used triazolinthione fungicide with low toxicity and short residual period. However, its desulfurization metabolite, prothioconazole-desthio (PTC-d), is more persistent and has higher toxicity in terrestrial animals. In this study, the toxicokinetics (TK) and tissue distribution of PTC and PTC-d in Chinese lizards (Eremias argus) were measured following single oral dose (100 mg kg-1 body weight) treatments. TK parameters indicated that PTC was more rapidly absorbed than PTC-d, as indicated by its shorter time to reach peak concentrations in most tissues. Furthermore, the relative bioavailability of PTC in lizards was lower than that of PTC-d. Compared with PTC, PTC-d preferentially accumulated in lizards, as reflected by longer half-life of PTC-d. During the distribution process, PTC-d generated in vivo was transported from other tissues and was deposited in the skin and tail, where PTC-d may be excreted by exuviation or tail detachment. Preferential enrichment of S-enantiomer of both PTC and PTC-d were observed in all tissues. Hepatic cytochrome P450 gene expression measurement revealed that cyp1a5 and cyp3a28 exhibited the strongest responses in both treatment groups. In addition, the opposite responses of cyp2k4 in different treatment groups may indicate that this enzyme caused differences in the rates of metabolism of the two chemicals. This study compared the TK profile of PTC and its desulfurization metabolite PTC-d in lizards and demonstrated that the desulfurization of PTC could increase its ecological risk due to the higher bioavailability and persistence of PTC-d.
