J Cosmet Dermatol 2024. [PMID: 39099002 DOI: 10.1111/jocd.16491] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 07/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sialoglycoproteins play important roles in various biological processes, including cell adhesion, immune response, and cell signaling. Our previous studies indicated that the bovine sialoglycoproteins could be developed as a reagent against skin aging and as a new candidate for accelerating skin wound healing as well as inhibiting scar formation. However, transdermal characteristic of the bovine sialoglycoproteins is still unknown. AIMS This study investigated the transdermal permeation of the bovine sialoglycoproteins through porcine skin using the Franz diffusion cell method. RESULTS Our study showed that the bovine sialoglycoproteins could penetrate through the porcine skin with a linear permeation pattern described by the regression equation N% = 11.49 t-3.858, with a high coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.9903). The histochemical results demonstrated the widespread distribution of the bovine sialoglycoproteins between the epidermal and dermal layers, which suggesting parts of the bovine sialoglycoproteins had ability to traverse the epidermal barrier. The results of the lectin microarrays indicated highly enriched glycopatterns on the bovine sialoglycoproteins, which also appeared in permeated porcine skin. The LC-MS/MS analysis further showed that the bovine sialoglycoproteins were composed of approximately 100 proteins with molecular weight ranging from 748.4 kDa to 10 kDa, and there were 23 specific bovine sialoglycoproteins with molecular weight ranging from 69.2 kDa to 10 kDa to be characterized in permeated porcine skin. CONCLUSIONS Parts of the bovine sialoglycoproteins with molecular weight less than 69.2 kDa had ability to traverse the epidermal barrier. Understanding the permeation characteristics of the bovine sialoglycoproteins for developing innovative formulations with therapeutic benefits, contributing to advancements in cosmetic and dermatological fields.

Abstract
The previous phytochemical analyses of Garcinia hanburyi revealed that the main structural characteristic associated with its biological activity is the caged polyprenylated xanthones with a unique 4-oxatricyclo [4.3.1.03,7] dec-2-one scaffold, which contains a highly substituted tetrahydrofuran ring with three quaternary carbons. Based on the progress in research of the chemical constituents, pharmacological effects and modification methods of the caged polyprenylated xanthones, this paper presents a preliminary predictive analysis of their drug-like properties based on the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADME/T) properties. It was found out that these compounds have very similar pharmacokinetic properties because they possess the same caged xanthone structure, the 9,10-double bond in a,b-unsaturated ketones are critical for the antitumor activity. The author believes that there is an urgent need to seek new breakthroughs in the study of these caged polyprenylated xanthones. Thus, the research on the route of administration, therapeutic effect, structural modification and development of such active ingredients is of great interest. It is hoped that this paper will provide ideas for researchers to develop and utilize the active ingredients derived from natural products.

Abstract
The purpose of our study was using a computational simulation to develop a long-acting patch of rivastigmine (RVS). A range of patch formulations were screened including pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA), pharmaceutical excipients, and controlled release membranes using transfer simulation based on a mathematical model. Diffusion dynamics parameters for simulated operations were acquired through in vitro release tests (IVRT) and in vitro skin permeation tests (IVPT). The mechanism of controlled release was studied by FTIR (Fourier transform infrared), DSC (differential scanning calorimeter) and molecular docking. Results of a rat in vitro permeation profile showed excellent correlation with the in vivo deconvolution profile (R2=0.998). Experiments testified to transfer of RVS at a relatively uniform speed with high skin permeation (2531.2±142.46 μg/cm2) in 72 h. Pharmacokinetic data obtained in vivo also confirmed stable plasma concentrations over 72 h for the optimized patch, and significant prolongation of both Tmax (11.20±1.79 h) and MRT0-t (33.91±5.33 h). Cmax was controlled with AUC0-t (267.34±24.46 h ng/ml), which was closely comparable to parameters of a commercial Exelon® Patch. The successful development of a long-acting patch of RVS thus underscores the potential of computer aided design in a context of promnesic transdermal delivery. Graphical abstract.

Effect of Gambogic Acid-Loaded Porous-Lipid/PLGA Microbubbles in Combination With Ultrasound-Triggered Microbubble Destruction on Human Glioma. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2021; 9:711787. [PMID: 34604184 PMCID: PMC8479098 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2021.711787] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2021] [Accepted: 07/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Gambogic acid (GA) is a highly effective antitumor agent, and it is used for the treatment of a wide range of cancers. It is challenging to deliver drugs to the central nervous system due to the inability of GA to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Studies have shown that ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction can be used for transient and reversible BBB disruption, significantly facilitating intracerebral drug delivery. We first prepared GA-loaded porous-lipid microbubbles (GA porous-lipid/PLGA MBs), and an in vitro BBB model was established. The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry. The results indicate that U251 human glioma cells were killed by focused ultrasound (FUS) combined with GA/PLGA microbubbles. FUS combined with GA/PLGA microbubbles was capable of locally and transiently enhancing the permeability of BBB under certain conditions. This conformational change allows the release of GA to extracellular space. This study provides novel targets for the treatment of glioma.

Topical delivery of gambogic acid assisted by the combination of low-frequency ultrasound and chemical enhancers for chemotherapy of cutaneous melanoma. Eur J Pharm Sci 2021; 166:105975. [PMID: 34391880 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2021.105975] [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: 06/07/2021] [Revised: 07/30/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
Anti-cutaneous melanoma activity of the skin-delivered gambogic acid (GA) has been reported in our previous study. However, it is difficult for GA to diffuse passively through intact skin without any enhancement means. In this study, a combination of chemical enhancers (EN: azone and propylene glycol) and physical ultrasound (US) was used to improve the percutaneous permeation of GA and enhance the anti-melanoma activity. The enhancement effect of the combination of EN and US (EN-US) on GA in vitro and in vivo was studied, and the enhancement mechanism and skin irritation were also evaluated. We showed that the parameters of US application at a constant frequency (30 kHz) with a duty cycle of 100% and intensity of 1.75 W/cm2 for 20 min were optimal. In vitro, EN-US showed a considerable enhancement of the permeation of GA, and the enhancement effect was stronger than that with the use of EN or US alone. In vivo antitumor study showed that the tumor growth was significantly inhibited after percutaneous administration of GA by EN-US, more than in the intravenous injection group. The penetration enhancement mechanism revealed that EN-US not only altered the structure of lipid bilayers and keratins to reduce the barrier effect of the stratum corneum but also produced diffusion channels in the skin under the cavitation effect of US, thereby promoting the skin penetration of GA. In addition, there was no observable skin irritation in mice after treatment with EN-US. Our study demonstrated that the combination of EN and US improved the skin permeation and retention of GA to enhance the anti-melanoma activity. This method also provides technical guidance for the future development of topical and transdermal therapeutic system of GA.
