[PMID: 38947341 PMCID: PMC11214406 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024] Open
Abstract
We prepared tea tree essential oil microcapsules, and the microcapsules and pullulan were coated on kraft paper to prepare an antibacterial paper. The antibacterial activity, structural characterization, and thermal stability of the prepared microcapsules and packaging paper were then tested. We found that the retention rate of microcapsules reached 87.1% after a 70 min of high-temperature treatment. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of microcapsules to S. aureus and E. coli were 112 mg/mL and 224 mg/mL, and the bacteriostatic zones of the packaging paper to E. coli and S. aureus were 17.49 mm and 22.75 mm, respectively. The prepared microcapsules were irregular. The paper coating was formed via hydrogen bonding, which filled the pores of paper fibers. When compared with the base paper, the roughness of the paper was reduced to 7.16 nm (Rq) and 5.61 nm (Ra), and no thermal decomposition occurred at <288 °C, which together implies a good application prospect.

Development of itraconazole ocular delivery system using β-cyclodextrin complexation incorporated into dissolving microneedles for potential improvement treatment of fungal keratitis. JOURNAL OF BIOMATERIALS SCIENCE. POLYMER EDITION 2024:1-28. [PMID: 39083398 DOI: 10.1080/09205063.2024.2380129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
Itraconazole (ITZ) is one of the broad-spectrum antifungal agents for treating fungal keratitis. In clinical use, ITZ has problems related to its poor solubility in water, which results in low bioavailability when administered orally. To resolve the issue, we formulated ITZ into the inclusion complex (ITZ-IC) system using β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), which can potentially increase the solubility and bioavailability of ITZ. The molecular docking study has confirmed that the binding energy of ITZ with the β-CD was -5.0 kcal/mol, indicating a stable conformation of the prepared inclusion complex. Moreover, this system demonstrated that the inclusion complex could significantly increase the solubility of ITZ up to 4-fold compared to the pure drug. Furthermore, an ocular drug delivery system was developed through dissolving microneedle (DMN) using polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as polymeric substances. The evaluation results of DMN inclusion complexes (ITZ-IC-DMN) showed excellent mechanical strength and insertion ability. In addition, ITZ-IC-DMN can dissolve rapidly upon application. The ex vivo permeation study revealed that 75.71% (equivalent to 3.79 ± 0.21 mg) of ITZ was permeated through the porcine cornea after 24 h. Essentially, ITZ-IC-DMN exhibited no signs of irritation in the HET-CAM study, indicating its safety for application. In conclusion, this study has successfully developed an inclusion complex formulation containing ITZ using β-CD in the DMN system. This approach holds promise for enhancing the solubility and bioavailability of ITZ through ocular administration.

The characterization of the pectin/alginate nanoparticle for encapsulation of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin-complexed naringin and its effects on cellular uptake and oxidative stress in Caco-2 cells. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 263:130398.

Abstract
Naringin (NR) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPCD) can form a water-soluble complex, but it is unstable. This study aimed to investigate the characterization of the pectin/alginate hydrogel nanoparticles (HNPs) loading HPCD-complexed naringin. The encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity of the HNPs for NR were found to be 79.23 % ± 1.31 % and 23.79 % ± 0.67 %, respectively. HNPs had an average diameter of 409.5 ± 8.5 nm, a PDI of 0.237 ± 0.014, and a zeta-potential of -33.5 ± 0.2. FTIR, XRD, and DSC analysis confirmed that the NR-HPCD complex was embedded into the HNPs. In simulated gastrointestinal digestion, the HNPs exhibited a lower cumulative release rate compared to free NR. In Caco-2 cells, the HNPs were more efficiently transported into the cells. Consequently, the HNPs resulted in a greater decrease in ROS levels, more recovery of mitochondrial membrane potential and higher content of glutathione. This study provided a carrier for encapsulating NR, making it possible for use in food or functional food.

Abstract
Telmisartan (TEL) is a promising antihypertensive agent among other angiotensin receptor blockers. However, its oral application is limited by its poor water solubility. This study presents the successful utilization of biomaterial-based hydrogel-forming microneedles integrated with a direct compressed tablet reservoir (HFMN-DCT) for the transdermal delivery of telmisartan in the treatment of hypertension. The combination of PVP, PVA, and tartaric acid was used in the HFMN formulation. A range of cross-linking temperatures and times were employed to optimize the characteristics of the HFMN. The HFMN exhibited excellent swelling capacity, mechanical strength, and insertion properties. Additionally, the poorly soluble characteristic of TEL was improved by the inclusion complex formulation with β-cyclodextrin (βCD). Phase solubility analysis showed an Ap-type diagram, indicating a higher-order complex between TEL and βCD, with respect to βCD. A ratio of TEL:βCD of 1:4 mM demonstrates the highest solubility enhancement of TEL. The inclusion complex formation was confirmed by FTIR, XRD, DSC, and molecular docking studies. A significantly higher release of TEL (up to 20-fold) from the inclusion complex was observed in the in vitro release study. Subsequently, a DCT reservoir was developed using various concentrations of sodium starch glycolate. Essentially, both the HFMN and DCT reservoir exhibit hemocompatibility and did not induce any skin irritation. The optimized combination of the HFMN-DCT reservoir showed an ex vivo permeation profile of 83.275 ± 2.405%. Notably, the proposed system showed superior pharmacokinetic profiles in the in vivo investigation using male Wistar rats. Overall, this study highlights the potential of HFMN-DCT reservoir systems as a versatile platform for transdermal drug delivery applications.

Designing and preparing supramolecular encapsulation systems based on fraxetin and cyclodextrins for highly selective detection of nicotine. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 327:121624.

Abstract
Herein, a series of water-soluble supramolecular inclusion complexes (ICs) probes were prepared using cyclodextrins (CDs) and fraxetin (FRA) to detect nicotine (NT) with high selectivity in vitro and in vivo. The FRA/CD ICs prepared through the saturated solution method exhibited excellent water solubility, stability, and biocompatibility. A clear host-guest inclusion model was provided by the theoretical calculations. The investigation revealed that NT was able to enter into the cavities of FRA/β-CD IC and FRA/γ-CD IC, and further formed charge transfer complexes with FRA in the CD cavities, resulting in a rapid and highly selective fluorescence-enhanced response with the lowest detection limits of 1.9 × 10-6 M and 9.7 × 10-7 M, and the linear response ranged from 0.02 to 0.3 mM and 0.01-0.05 mM, respectively. The IC probes showed good anti-interference performance to common interferents or different pH environments, with satisfactory reproducibility and repeatability of response to NT. Furthermore, the potentiality of the probes was confirmed through fluorescence imaging experiments using human lung cancer cells and the lung tissue of mice. This study offers a fresh perspective for detecting NT in environmental and biomedical analysis.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins have gained significant and established attention as versatile carriers for the delivery of bioactive compounds derived from natural sources in various applications, including medicine, food and cosmetics. Their toroidal structure and hydrophobic cavity render them ideal candidates for encapsulating and solubilizing hydrophobic and poorly soluble compounds. Most medicinal, food and cosmetic ingredients share the challenges of hydrophobicity and degradation that can be effectively addressed by various cyclodextrin types. Though not new or novel-their first applications appeared in the market in the 1970s-their versatility has inspired numerous developments, either on the academic or industrial level. This review article provides an overview of the ever-growing applications of cyclodextrins in the delivery of bioactive compounds from natural sources and their potential application benefits.

Abstract
This study aimed to prepare anti-Staphylococcus aureus inclusion complexes (ICs) of Hinoki essential oil (HEO) with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (2-HP-β-CD). An ultrasound-assisted kneading method was applied for the complexation for the first time. The recovery yield, embedding fraction and loading capacity of the HEO/β-CD ICs were 92.5%, 78.0% and 11.9%, respectively, while the corresponding values were 80.8%, 73.7% and 12.9% for the HEO/2-HP-β-CD ICs. As well, a comparative study confirmed the efficiency of the ultrasound-assisted kneading method was higher than the traditional kneading method. The results of SEM, XRD, GC-MS and FT-IR suggested the successful formation of ICs. A significant anti-Staphylococcus aureus activity of the fabricated ICs was demonstrated using a colony counting method. Notably, when the dose in liquid culture medium was 20 g L-1, inhibitory rates of 99.8% for HEO/β-CD ICs and 100% for HEO/2-HP-β-CD ICs were achieved. Furthermore, the hydrophilic property of the ICs was proved by water contact angle measurements, implying they have the potential to act as anti-Staphylococcus aureus agents for blending with hydrophilic biodegradable materials for diverse food packaging utilizations.

Abstract
Lycorine (Lyc) and its hydrochloride (Lyc∙HCl) as effective drugs can fight against many diseases including novel coronavirus (COVID-19) based on their antiviral and antitumor mechanism. Beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) is considered a promising carrier in improving its efficacy while minimizing cytotoxicity due to the good spatial compatibility with Lyc. However, the detailed mechanism of inclusion interaction still remains to be further evaluated. In this paper, six inclusion complexes based on β-CDs, Lyc and Lyc∙HCl were processed through ultrasound in the mixed solvent of ethanol and water, and their inclusion behavior was characterized after lyophilization. It was found that the inclusion complexes based on sulfobutyl-beta-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD) and Lyc∙HCl had the best encapsulation effect among prepared inclusion complexes, which may be attributed to the electrostatic interaction between sulfonic group of SBE-β-CD and quaternary amino group of Lyc∙HCl. Moreover, the complexes based on SBE-β-CD displayed pH-sensitive drug release property, good solubilization, stability and blood compatibility, indicating their potential as suitable drug carriers for Lyc and Lyc∙HCl.

Abstract
Carotenoids, including carotenes and xanthophylls, have been identified as bioactive ingredients in foods and are considered to possess health-promoting effects. From a biopharmaceutical perspective, several physicochemical characteristics, such as scanty water solubility, restricted dissolution, and susceptibility to oxidation may influence their oral bioavailability and eventually, their effectiveness. In this review, we have summarized various formulation approaches that deal with the modification of crystalline status for carotenoids, which may improve their physicochemical properties, oral absorption, and biological effects. The mechanisms involving crystalline alteration and the typical methods for examining crystalline states in the pharmaceutical field have been included, and representative formulation approaches are introduced to unriddle the mechanisms and effects more clearly.
