Abstract
Vesicles are self-assembled nanocontainers (size ∼100 nm) in which solutes such as drugs can be encapsulated. There is great interest in triggering vesicle-micelle transitions (VMTs) because such transitions will result in the release of encapsulated solute. Here, we focus on reactive oxygen species (ROS) as a trigger for VMTs. ROS arise in our body within cells, and ROS levels are known to be high near a tumor. Thus, ROS-responsive vesicles are of interest. We make such vesicles by combining the cationic amphiphile (4-phenylthiophenyl)diphenyl-sulfonium triflate (PDST), and the anionic surfactant sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS). By simply mixing these two commercially available molecules in water, we prepare 'catanionic' vesicles in an easy, low-cost, and scalable way. When exposed to ROS such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the thioether in the PDST tail gets oxidized to a hydrophilic sulfoxide. As a result, the vesicles are transformed into spherical or short, cylindrical micelles. Evidence for the VMT comes from turbidity, light scattering, and cryo-TEM measurements. The same vesicles are also sensitive to other stimuli, specifically light and temperature: i.e., a VMT can also be induced by irradiation with UV light or heating above a critical temperature. We explain the origin of the VMT in each case based on changes in the driving forces for amphiphile assembly.

Cataleptogenic Effect of Haloperidol Formulated in Water-Soluble Calixarene-Based Nanoparticles. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15030921. [PMID: 36986782 PMCID: PMC10059056 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15030921] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2023] [Revised: 03/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, a water-soluble form of haloperidol was obtained by coaggregation with calix[4]resorcinol bearing viologen groups on the upper rim and decyl chains on the lower rim to form vesicular nanoparticles. The formation of nanoparticles is achieved by the spontaneous loading of haloperidol into the hydrophobic domains of aggregates based on this macrocycle. The mucoadhesive and thermosensitive properties of calix[4]resorcinol–haloperidol nanoparticles were established by UV-, fluorescence and CD spectroscopy data. Pharmacological studies have revealed low in vivo toxicity of pure calix[4]resorcinol (LD50 is 540 ± 75 mg/kg for mice and 510 ± 63 mg/kg for rats) and the absence of its effect on the motor activity and psycho-emotional state of mice, which opens up a possibility for its use in the design of effective drug delivery systems. Haloperidol formulated with calix[4]resorcinol exhibits a cataleptogenic effect in rats both when administered intranasally and intraperitoneally. The effect of the intranasal administration of haloperidol with macrocycle in the first 120 min is comparable to the effect of commercial haloperidol, but the duration of catalepsy was shorter by 2.9 and 2.3 times (p < 0.05) at 180 and 240 min, respectively, than that of the control. There was a statistically significant reduction in the cataleptogenic activity at 10 and 30 min after the intraperitoneal injection of haloperidol with calix[4]resorcinol, then there was an increase in the activity by 1.8 times (p < 0.05) at 60 min, and after 120, 180 and 240 min the effect of this haloperidol formulation was at the level of the control sample.

Abstract
We recently found that rough glass surfaces (RGSs) can in situ mediate the micelle-to-vesicle transition in single-component solutions of simple single-tailed amphiphiles (STAs), but only result in a relatively small number of vesicles coexisting with a large number of micelles. In the current work, a dehydration-rehydration (DHRH) method was used to induce the formation of vesicles in the single-component aqueous solutions of alkyltrimethylammonium bromides (CnTABs, n = 12, 14, and 16), a kind of typical cationic STAs. That is, a CnTAB micelle solution dropped on smooth glass surfaces (SGSs) was first dried, and the dried CnTAB aggregates were then rehydrated in a monomer solution of CnTAB. A large population of vesicles and even pure vesicle (or vesicle-dominated) systems were obtained, indicating that the DHRH process could more effectively induce the formation of STA vesicles than RGS in situ mediation. The so-obtained vesicles were characterized using DLS, FF-/cryo-TEM, AFM, SAXS, and fluorescence techniques, and their stability was determined. In addition, the effects of the conditions of DHRH and the chain length of CnTABs on the vesicle formation were examined. It was demonstrated that the vesicles can be formed as long as the concentrations of CnTABs in the rehydrated systems are higher than their critical micelle concentrations. The size and wall thickness of vesicles increase with an increase in chain length. A possible mechanism for the DHRH-induced vesicle formation is proposed: bilayer sheets are formed on SGSs during dehydration, and then detached from the SGSs to form vesicles during rehydration. A highly interdigitated structure of alkyl chains between two leaflets was identified in the bilayers, which probably is the origin of the formation and stability of STA vesicles.

Abstract
Controlling the dynamic imine bonds upon a novel trigger except for pH and temperature is still a significant challenge. Here, a Se-containing imine-based dynamic covalent surfactant (HOBAB-BSeEA) was developed for the first time by mixing two precursors in situ: an asymmetric double-chain cationic surfactant bearing a formyl group at the terminal of one hydrophobic tail and a Se-containing amine (2-(benzylselanyl)ethan-1-amine) in order to confirm the effect of redox on the imine bonds. The imine bond in HOBAB-BSeEA can be regulated not only upon changing the pH as well as other common imine-based surfactants but also by oxidation. The conversion efficiency of imine bonds is closely related with the degree of oxidation and pH. Complete oxidation can decrease the conversion efficiency from ∼87 to 48%, which is comparable to the result of changing the pH from 10.0 to 7.0. With the formation and breaking of imine bonds, the surfactant can be reversibly switched between symmetric and asymmetric structures, accompanied by a morphological transition from vesicles to spherical micelles. Although oxidation cannot demolish all imine bonds, it can completely convert vesicles to spherical micelles, which is mainly ascribed to an increase in the polarity of the micellar microenvironment stemming from the oxidation of Se. However, this transition can only be achieved by reducing the pH to 5.0 instead of 7.0. Nile red loaded in HOBAB-BSeEA vesicles can be quickly, controllably, and step-by-step released upon oxidation stimulus but not pH. Understanding the mechanism of oxidation-induced breakage of imine bonds and disruption of vesicles would be useful in designing redox-responsive imine-based carriers that can unload cargoes according to the level of the local reactive oxygen species.

Abstract
The influence of mixing protocol, composition, temperature, ageing and added alcohols on the characteristics of the microstructures of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) + cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) mixtures has been investigated in this paper. In this catanionic mixture (1 weight% total surfactant content) temperature induced microstructural transition occurs, which is (i) a micelle-to-vesicle transition (MVT) if αSDS (mole fraction of SDS) = 0.7, 0.8 or 0.9 and (ii) a vesicle-to-micelle transition (VMT) if αSDS = 0.1, 0.2 or 0.3. In the mixture of αSDS = 0.7, specific conductivity and dynamic light scattering measurements also support the occurrence of MVT. Transition electron microscopy and small angle neutron scattering measurements were also made to assess the characteristics of the microstructures. Alcohols added to the mixture of αSDS = 0.7 reduced the size of the vesicle, while only monohydric alcohols suppressed the temperature induced transition indicating that the number and location of -OH groups of the alcohols have a dramatic modulating influence on the structural transition occurring in catanionic mixtures. The influence of the alcohols is explained in terms of changes produced in the dielectric constant and hydrophobicity of the medium.
