Construction of injectable micron-sized polymorphic vesicles for prolonged local anesthesia with weekly sustained release of ropivacaine. Int J Pharm 2024; 661:124378. [PMID: 38925241 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124378] [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: 02/26/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Currently, to overcome the short half-life of the local anesthetic ropivacaine, drug delivery systems such as nanoparticles and liposomes have been used to prolong the analgesic effect, but they are prone to abrupt release from the site of administration or have poor slow-release effects, which increases the risk of cardiotoxicity. In this study, injectable lipid suspensions based on ropivacaine-docusate sodium hydrophobic ion pairing (HIP) were designed to significantly prolong the duration of analgesia. The resulting ion-paired lipid suspension (HIP/LIPO) had a micrometer scale and a high zeta potential, which facilitates stable in situ retention. The strong interaction between docusate sodium and ropivacaine was verified using thermal and spectroscopic analyses, and the formation of micron-sized polymorphic vesicles was attributed to the mutual stabilizing interactions between ropivacaine-docusate sodium HIP, docusate sodium and lecithin. The HIP/LIPO delivery system could maintain drug release for more than 5 days in vitro and achieve high analgesic efficacy for more than 10 days in vivo, reducing the side effects associated with high drug doses. The stable HIP/LIPO delivery system is a promising strategy that offers a clinically beneficial alternative for postoperative pain management and other diseases.

Arginine Gemini-Based Surfactants for Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Applications: Molecular Interactions, Skin-Related Anti-Enzymatic Activity and Cytotoxicity. Molecules 2023; 28:6570.

Abstract
The antimicrobial and antibiofilm properties of arginine-based surfactants have been evaluated. These two biological properties depend on both the alkyl chain length and the spacer chain nature. These gemini surfactants exhibit good activity against a wide range of bacteria, including some problematic resistant microorganisms such us methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Moreover, surfactants with a C10 alkyl chain and C3 spacer inhibit the (MRSA) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation at concentrations as low as 8 µg/mL and are able to eradicate established biofilms of these two bacteria at 32 µg/mL. The inhibitory activities of the surfactants over key enzymes enrolled in the skin repairing processes (collagenase, elastase and hyaluronidase) were evaluated. They exhibited moderate anti-collagenase activity while the activity of hyaluronidase was boosted by the presence of these surfactants. These biological properties render these gemini arginine-based surfactants as perfect promising candidates for pharmaceutical and biological properties.

Abstract
The interactions of amino acids and peptides at model membrane interfaces have considerable implications for biological functions, with the ability to act as chemical messengers, hormones, neurotransmitters, and even as antibiotics and anticancer agents. In this study, glycine and the short glycine peptides diglycine, triglycine, and tetraglycine are studied with regards to their interactions at the model membrane interface of Aerosol-OT (AOT) reverse micelles via 1H NMR spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and Langmuir trough measurements. It was found that with the exception of monomeric glycine, the peptides prefer to associate between the interface and bulk water pool of the reverse micelle. Monomeric glycine, however, resides with the N-terminus in the ordered interstitial water (stern layer) and the C-terminus located in the bulk water pool of the reverse micelle.

Abstract
Menaquinones are lipoquinones that consist of a headgroup (naphthoquinone, menadione) and an isoprenyl sidechain. They function as electron transporters in prokaryotes such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. For these studies, we used Langmuir monolayers and microemulsions to investigate how the menaquinone headgroup (menadione) and the menahydroquinone headgroup (menadiol) interact with model membrane interfaces to determine if differences are observed in the location of these headgroups in a membrane. It has been suggested that the differences in the locations are mainly caused by the isoprenyl sidechain rather than the headgroup quinone-to-quinol reduction during electron transport. This study presents evidence that suggests the influence of the headgroup drives the movement of the oxidized quinone and the reduced hydroquinone to different locations within the interface. Utilizing the model membranes of microemulsions and Langmuir monolayers, it is determined whether or not there is a difference in the location of menadione and menadiol within the interface. Based on our findings, we conclude that the menadione and menadiol may reside in different locations within model membranes. It follows that if menaquinone moves within the cell membrane upon menaquinol formation, it is due at least in part, to the differences in the properties of headgroup interactions with the membrane in addition to the isoprenyl sidechain.
