Keihankhadiv S, Neugebauer D. Simple strategy of the use of pharmaceutically functionalized ionic liquids in a new generation of polymer nanocarriers for the combined delivery of ionic p-aminosalicylate and ampicillin. Int J Pharm 2024; 662:124483. [PMID: 39029636 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124483] [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: 05/14/2024] [Revised: 07/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/21/2024]
Abstract
Single and dual bioactive linear poly(ionic liquid)s (PIL) were synthesized for use as nanocarriers in drug delivery systems (DDS). These PILs were obtained through the (co)polymerization of the choline-based monomeric ionic liquids (MIL) with pharmaceutical anions possessing antibacterial properties, specifically [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethyl-ammonium with ampicillin and p-aminosalicylate (TMAMA/AMP and TMAMA/PAS). The copolymers exhibited varying chain lengths defined by a degree of polymerization (DPn = 122-370), and differing contents of ionic fraction and drugs (TMAMA 61-92 %, AMP 61-93 % and PAS 16-21 %). These parameters were adjustable by the monomer conversion (33-92 %) and the initial ratio of comonomers. In aqueous solution, the polymer particles reached nanosizes, i.e. 190-328 nm for AMP systems and 200-235 nm for AMP/PAS systems. In the release process, the pharmaceutical anions were released through exchange by phosphate anions in PBS at pH 7.4 at 37 °C. Depending on the copolymer composition the release of AMP was attained in 72-100 % (11.1-19.5 µg/mL) within 26 h by the single drug systems, while the dual drug systems released 61-100 % of AMP (14.8-24.7 µg/mL) and 82-100 % of PAS (3.1-4.8 µg/mL) within 72 h. The effectiveness in the drug delivery of the designed TMAMA polymers seems to be promising for future applications in antibiotic therapy and the combined therapy.

Abstract
Understanding electron transport with electroactive microbes is key to engineering effective and scalable bio-electrochemical technologies. Much of this electron transfer occurs through small-molecule flavin mediators that perform one-electron transfers in abiotic systems but concerted two-electron transfer in biological systems, rendering abiotic systems less efficient. To boost efficiency, the principles guiding flavin electron transfer must be elucidated, necessitating a tunable system. Ionic liquids (ILs) offer such a platform due to their chemical diversity. In particular, imidazolium-containing ILs that resemble the amino acid histidine are bio-similar electrolytes that enable the study of flavin electron transfer. Using the model IL 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ([Emim][BF4]), we observe concerted two-electron transfer between flavin mononucleotide and an unmodified glassy carbon electrode surface, while a one-electron transfer occurs in standard inorganic electrolytes. This work demonstrates the power of ILs to enable the mechanistic study of biological electron transfer, providing critical guidelines for improving electrochemical technologies based on these biological properties.

Abstract
Insulin, a pivotal anabolic hormone, regulates glucose homeostasis by facilitating the conversion of blood glucose to energy or storage. Dysfunction in insulin activity, often associated with pancreatic β cells impairment, leads to hyperglycemia, a hallmark of diabetes. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from autoimmune destruction of β cells, while type 2 diabetes (T2D) stems from genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors causing β cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. Currently, insulin therapy is used for most of the cases of T1D, while it is used only in a few persistent cases of T2D, often supplemented with dietary and lifestyle changes. The key challenge in oral insulin delivery lies in overcoming gastrointestinal (GI) barriers, including enzymatic degradation, low permeability, food interactions, low bioavailability, and long-term safety concerns. The muco-adhesive (MA) and muco-penetrative (MP) formulations aim to enhance oral insulin delivery by addressing these challenges. The mucus layer, a hydrogel matrix covering epithelial cells in the GI tract, poses significant barriers to oral insulin absorption. Its structure, composition, and turnover rate influence interactions with insulin and other drug carriers. Some of the few factors that influence mucoadhesion and mucopenetration are particle size, surface charge distribution, and surface modifications. This review discusses the challenges associated with oral insulin delivery, explores the properties of mucus, and evaluates the strategies for achieving excellent MA and MP formulations, focusing on nanotechnology-based approaches. The development of effective oral insulin formulations holds the potential to revolutionize diabetes management, providing patients with a more convenient and patient-friendly alternative to traditional insulin administration methods.

Abstract
The non-invasive nature and potential for sustained release make transdermal drug administration an appealing treatment option for cancer therapy. However, the strong barrier of the stratum corneum (SC) poses a challenge for the penetration of hydrophilic chemotherapy drugs such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Due to its biocompatibility and capacity to increase drug solubility and permeability, especially when paired with chemical enhancers, such as oleic acid (OA), which is used in this work, choline glycinate ([Cho][Gly]) has emerged as a potential substance for transdermal drug delivery. In this work, we examined the possibility of transdermal delivery of 5-FU for the treatment of breast cancer using an ionic hydrogel formulation consisting of [Cho][Gly] with OA. Small angle neutron scattering, rheological analysis, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering analysis were used to characterize the ionic hydrogel. The non-covalent interactions present between [Cho][Gly] and OA were investigated by computational simulations and FTIR spectroscopy methods. When subjected to in vitro drug permeation using goat skin in a Franz diffusion cell, the hydrogel demonstrated sustained release of 5-FU and effective permeability in the order: [Cho][Gly]-OA gel > [Cho][Gly] > PBS (control). The hydrogel also demonstrated 92% cell viability after 48 hours for the human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT cells) as well as the normal human cell line L-132. The breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and the cervical cancer cell line HeLa were used to study in vitro cytotoxicity that was considerably affected by the 5-FU-loaded hydrogel. These results indicate the potential of the hydrogel as a transdermal drug delivery vehicle for the treatment of breast cancer.

Abstract
The utilization of chemical dispersants as a way of mitigating of oil spills in marine eco-system has been extensively documented worldwide. Hence, in this research we have successfully synthesized two amphiphilic asymmetric Dicaionic Ionic Liquids (DILs). The efficacy of these synthesized DILs as dispersants was assessed using the baffled flask test (BFT). The results indicated a dispersant effectiveness ranging from 47.98 % to 79.76 % for the dispersion of heavy crude oil across various temperature ranges (10-30 °C). These dispersant-to-oil ratios (DOR) were maintained at 3: 100 (V%), showcasing promising dispersant capabilities for mitigating heavy crude oil spills. Additionally, acute toxicity tests conducted on Nile tilapia and Oreochromis niloticus have demonstrated the relatively low toxicity of the IL-dispersants, with Lethal Concentration 50 (LC50) values exceeding 100 ppm after 96 h. This suggests a practically slight toxic effect on the tested fish. In summary, the newly developed IL-dispersants are considered to be conducive to environmentally benign oil spill remediation.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that leads to deformities and disabilities in patients. Conventional treatment focuses on delaying progression; therefore, new treatments are necessary. The present study reported a novel ionic liquid transdermal platform for efficient RA treatment, and the underlying mechanism was elucidated using FTIR, 1H-NMR, Raman, XPS, and molecular simulations. The results showed that the reversibility of the semi-ionic hydrogen bonding facilitated high drug loading and enhanced drug permeability. Actarit's drug loading had an approximately 11.34-times increase. The in vitro permeability of actarit and ketoprofen was improved by 5.46 and 2.39 times, respectively. And they had the same significant effect in vivo. Furthermore, through the integration of network pharmacology, Western blotting (WB), and radiology analyses, the significant osteoprotective effects of SIHDD-PSA (semi-ionic H-bond double-drug pressure-sensitive adhesive transdermal patch) were revealed through the modulation of the JAK-STAT pathway. The SIHDD-PSA significantly reduced paw swelling and inflammation in the rat model, and stimulatory properties evaluation confirmed the safety of SIHDD-PSA. In conclusion, these findings provide a novel approach for the effective treatment of RA, and the semi-ionic hydrogen bonding strategy contributes a new theoretical basis for developing TDDS.

Abstract
With the rise in diabetes mellitus cases worldwide, oral delivery of insulin is preferred over subcutaneous insulin administration due to its good patient compliance and non-invasiveness, simplicity, and versatility. However, oral insulin delivery is hampered by various gastrointestinal barriers that result in low drug bioavailability and insufficient therapeutic efficiency. Numerous strategies have been developed to overcome these barriers and increase the bioavailability of oral insulin. Yet, no commercial oral insulin product is available to address all clinical hurdles because of various substantial obstacles related to the structural organization and physiological function of the gastrointestinal tract. Herein, we discussed the significant physiological barriers (including chemical, enzymatic, and physical barriers) that hinder the transportation and absorption of orally delivered insulin. Then, we showcased recent significant and innovative advances in oral insulin delivery technologies. Finally, we concluded the review with remarks on future perspectives on oral insulin delivery technologies and potential challenges for forthcoming clinical translation of oral insulin delivery technologies.

Abstract
Previously reported amphiphilic linear and graft copolymers, derived from the ionic liquid [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride (TMAMA_Cl‾), along with their conjugates obtained through modification either before or after polymerization with p-aminosalicylate anions (TMAMA_PAS‾), were employed as matrices in drug delivery systems (DDSs). Based on the counterion type in TMAMA units, they were categorized into single drug systems, manifesting as ionic polymers with chloride counterions and loaded isoniazid (ISO), and dual drug systems, featuring ISO loaded in self-assembled PAS conjugates. The amphiphilic nature of these copolymers was substantiated through the determination of the critical micelle concentration (CMC), revealing an increase in values post-ion exchange (from 0.011-0.063 mg/mL to 0.027-0.181 mg/mL). The self-assembling properties were favorable for ISO encapsulation, with drug loading content (DLC) ranging between 15 and 85% in both single and dual systems. In vitro studies indicated ISO release percentages between 16 and 61% and PAS release percentages between 20 and 98%. Basic cytotoxicity assessments using the 2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) test affirmed the non-toxicity of the studied systems toward human non-tumorigenic lung epithelial cell line (BEAS-2B) cell lines, particularly in the case of dual systems bearing both ISO and PAS simultaneously. These results confirmed the effectiveness of polymeric carriers in drug delivery, demonstrating their potential for co-delivery in combination therapy.

Abstract
Herein, we have shown the interaction of an antibiotic drug ciprofloxacin (CIP) with three surface-active ionic liquids (ILs), having the same cation and different anions, namely, 1-decyl-3-methylimidazoliumtetrafluoroborate [C10mim][BF4], 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide [C10mim][Br], and 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [C10mim][Cl]. This study has been performed by exploiting various spectroscopic techniques such as steady-state fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence, and UV-visible spectroscopy. The fluorescence emission study of CIP with ILs was performed at various concentrations of all the three ILs. The emission spectra of CIP decreased in the presence of ILs, suggesting complex formation between CIP-IL. The effect of different concentrations of ILs on the emission spectra of CIP was exploited in terms of quenching and binding parameters. Further, fluorescence emission study was validated by the time-resolved fluorescence technique by measuring the average lifetime (τavg) of CIP in the presence of all the three ILs. The τavg value of the drug changed with the addition of ILs, which suggests complex formation between the drug and ILs. This complex formation was also confirmed by UV-visible spectroscopy results of CIP with all the three ILs. Further, for evaluating the thermodynamic parameters of the CIP-IL interactions, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was performed. The ITC experiment yielded the thermodynamic parameters, ΔH (change in the enthalpy of association), ΔG (Gibbs free energy change), ΔS (entropy change), and binding constant (Ka). The binding parameters driven by ITC revealed that CIP-IL interactions are spontaneous in nature and enthalpy-driven, involving hydrophobic forces. Further, the classical density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed, which provided deep insight for CIP-IL complex formation.

Abstract
Ionic liquids are promising media for self-assembling block copolymers in applications such as energy storage. A robust design of block copolymer formulations in ionic liquids requires fundamental knowledge of their self-organization at the nanoscale. To this end, here, we focus on modeling two-component systems comprising a Poly(ethylene oxide)-poly (propylene oxide)-Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) block copolymer (Pluronic P105: EO37PO58EO37) and room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs): protic ethylammonium nitrate (EAN), aprotic ionic liquids (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIMPF6), or 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (BMIMBF4). Rich structural polymorphism was exhibited, including phases of micellar (sphere) cubic, hexagonal (cylinder), bicontinuous cubic, and lamellar (bilayer) lyotropic liquid crystalline (LLC) ordered structures in addition to solution regions. The characteristic scales of the structural lengths were obtained using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data analysis. On the basis of phase behavior and structure, the effects of the ionic liquid solvent on block copolymer organization were assessed and contrasted to those of molecular solvents, such as water and formamide.

The diverse structures of amphiphilic copolymers made it possible to adjust the encapsulation efficiency of a well-known antibiotic, i.e., p-aminosalicylate in the form of sodium salt (PASNa) or acid (PASA), providing single drug systems. Goniometry was applied to verify the self-assembly capacity of the copolymers using the critical micelle concentration (CMC = 0.03-0.18 mg/mL) and the hydrophilicity level quantifying the surface wettability of polymer film using the water contact angle (WCA = 30-53°). Both parameters were regulated by the copolymer composition, indicating that the increase in ionic content caused higher CMC and lower WCA, but the latter was also modified to a less hydrophilic surface by drug encapsulation. The drug content (DC) in the PAS-based polymers was increased twice by encapsulation of PASNa and PASA (47-96% and 86-104%), whereas in the chloride-based polymer systems, the drug was loaded in 43-96% and 73-100%, respectively. Efficient drug release was detected for PASNa (80-100% series 1; 50-100% series 2) and PASA as complete in both series. The strategy of loading extra drug by encapsulation, which enhances the drug content in the copolymers containing anions of the same pharmaceutics, provided promising characteristics, which highlight the potential of PAS-loaded micellar copolymers for drug delivery.

Abstract
Hydrated ionic liquid (IL) is a simple mixture of IL and water. Unique aqueous electrolyte solution can be designed by mixing IL with limited amount of water. In most hydrated ILs, there are no free water and all are strongly interacted with ions. The properties of hydrated ILs, such as polarity, viscosity, ion mobility, and hydrogen bonding ability, can therefore be controlled simply by water content. This mixture is expected to provide similar environment to that of living cell, and is desired to be effective solvents for biomolecules. In this account, we would like to survey the basic properties, recent results, and future aspects of the hydrated ILs.

Abstract
Cholinium-based ionic liquids are compounds increasingly studied in pharmaceutics and biomedicine to enhance bioavailability in drug delivery systems and as bioactive ingredients in pharmaceutical formulations. However, their potential as antimicrobial agents has scarcely been investigated. Herein, we explored the antimicrobial activity of a series of surface-active cholinium-based ionic liquids (Chol-ILs). For this purpose, Chol-ILs with alkyl chains of 10-16 carbon atoms were synthesized and their self-assembly in aqueous medium was investigated. Subsequently, their antimicrobial activity against a panel of clinically relevant bacteria and their ability to eradicate MRSA and P. aeruginosa PAO1 biofilms was evaluated. Finally, we analyzed the ecotoxicological profile of Chol-ILs in terms of susceptibility to aerobic biodegradation and acute aquatic toxicity against D. magna and V. fisheri. Our results reveal that cholinium-based ILs with alkyl chain lengths ≥12 C show a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity. Their antimicrobial efficacy depends on their hydrophobicity, with the C14-C16 homologs being the most effective compounds. These ILs exhibit antimicrobial activity similar to that of imidazolium ILs and quaternary ammonium antiseptics. Moreover, the longer alkyl chain Chol-ILs are able to eradicate established biofilms at concentrations as low as 16-32 µg/mL. The biodegradation rate of cholinium-based ILs decreases with alkyl chain elongation. Our results reinforce the suitability of Chol-ILs as promising multifunctional compounds for application in pharmaceutical and biomedical formulation.

Abstract
In the current twenty years, industrial applications of ionic liquids (ILs) have been of paramount attention due to their indisputable positive characteristics like negligible volatility and chemical/thermal stability. These brilliant advantages open new horizons towards environmentally friendly application of ILs in several industrial activities like membrane-based CO2 separation, electrolyte, bioprocessing, targeted drug delivery and solar panels. The principal intention of this article is to prepare a comprehensive review on the potential efficiency of IL-based absorbents to separate CO2 acidic contaminant from industrial gaseous streams compared to alkanolamine absorbents as the benchmark. For this purpose, a techno-economic evaluation is presented to compare the cost-effectiveness of ILs compared to alkanolamine absorbents. Finally, major environmental impacts of the ILs applications in industries are discussed and future perspectives towards solving the operational challenges are presented in detail.

Abstract
Advancements in the fields of ionic liquids (ILs) broaden its applications not only in traditional use but also in different pharmaceutical and biomedical fields. Ionic liquids "Solutions for Your Success" have received a lot of interest from scientists due to a myriad of applications in the pharmaceutical industry for drug delivery systems as well as targeting different diseases. Solubility is a critical physicochemical property that determines the drug's fate at the target site. Many promising drug candidates fail in various phases of drug research due to poor solubility. In this context, ionic liquids are regarded as effective drug delivery systems for poorly soluble medicines. ILs are also able to combine different anions/cations with other cations/anions to produce salts that satisfy the concept behind the ILs. The important characteristics of ionic liquids are the modularity of their physicochemical properties depending on the application. The review highlights the recent advancement and further applications of ionic liquids to deliver drugs in the pharmaceutical and biomedical fields.

Abstract
The present work reviews the liquid antisolvent crystallization (LASC) to prepare the nanoparticle of pharmaceutical compounds to enhance their solubility, dissolution rate, and bioavailability. The application of ultrasound and additives is discussed to prepare the particles with narrow size distribution. The use of ionic liquid as an alternative to conventional organic solvent is presented. Herbal compounds, also known for low aqueous solubility and limited clinical application, have been crystalized by LASC and discussed here. The particle characteristics such as particle size and particle size distribution are interpreted in terms of supersaturation, nucleation, and growth phenomena. To overcome the disadvantage of batch crystallization, the scientific literature on continuous flow reactors is also reviewed. LASC in a microfluidic device is emerging as a promising technique. The different design of the microfluidic device and their application in LASC are discussed. The combination of the LASC technique with traditional techniques such as high-pressure homogenization and spray drying is presented. A comparison of product characteristics prepared by LASC and the supercritical CO2 antisolvent method is discussed to show that LASC is an attractive and inexpensive alternative for nanoparticle preparation. One of the major strengths of this paper is a discussion on less-explored applications of LASC in pharmaceutical research to attract the attention of future researchers.

Abstract
Herein, we have shown the interaction of levofloxacin (LVF) with two imidazolium based ionic liquids (ILs), 1-butly-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim][Cl]) and 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Dmim][Cl]) by utilising spectroscopic techniques along with computational approach. Both [Bmim][Cl] and [Dmim][Cl] quenched the fluorescence emission of LVF suggesting complex formation between ILs and the drug. The steady-state and time-resolve fluorescence studies revealed that the quenching of fluorescence emission of LVF in the presence of [Bmim][Cl] and [Dmim][Cl], which signified the non-fluorescent complex formation between LVF and ILs. The complex formation between LVF and ILs were also validated by the UV-visible spectroscopy method. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) results further suggest the strong interaction between LVF and ILs. The estimated binding constant (Kb) and free energy change (ΔG) parameters shows the substantial binding of LVF with both the ILs and spontaneous in nature. The value suggested that LVF have stronger binding with [Dmim][Cl] than [Bmim][Cl]. Further, in order to support the results classical density functional theory (DFT) model was performed. The DFT calculations were utilized to explore the 3D structure and the molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) of ILs, LVF and their complexes using Gaussian 09 software. The aggregate size (Dh) and zeta potential of ILs and IL-drug complexes were determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential in aqueous medium.

Influence of Metal Salts Addition on Physical and Electrochemical Properties of Ethyl and Propylammonium Nitrate. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232416040.

Abstract
In this work, we deepen in the characterization of two protic ionic liquids (PILs), ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) and propylammonium nitrate (PAN). With this aim, we determined the influence of inorganic nitrate salts addition on their physical properties and their electrochemical potential window (EPW). Thus, experimental measurements of electrical conductivity, density, viscosity, refractive index and surface tension of mixtures of {EAN or PAN + LiNO3, Ca(NO3)2, Mg(NO3)2 or Al(NO3)3} at a temperature range between 5 and 95 °C are presented first, except for the last two properties which were measured at 25 °C. In the second part, the corresponding EPWs were determined at 25 °C by linear sweep voltammetry using three different electrochemical cells. Effect of the salt addition was associated mainly with the metal cation characteristics, so, generally, LiNO3 showed the lower influence, followed by Ca(NO3)2, Mg(NO3)2 or Al(NO3)3. The results obtained for the EAN + LiNO3 mixtures, along with those from a previous work, allowed us to develop novel predictive equations for most of the presented physical properties as functions of the lithium salt concentration, the temperature and the water content. Electrochemical results showed that a general order of EPW can be established for both PILs, although exceptions related to measurement conditions and the properties of the mixtures were found.

Abstract
The potential of ionic liquids (ILs) to be used as antimicrobial agents for biomedical applications has been hindered by the fact that most of them are cytotoxic toward mammalian cells. Understanding the mechanism of bacterial and mammalian cellular damage of ILs is key to their safety design. In this work, we evaluate the antimicrobial activity and mode of action of several ILs with varying anions and cations toward the clinically relevant Gram-negative Escherichia coli. Langmuir monolayer technique was used to evaluate if the IL's mode of action was related to the bacterial cell membrane interaction for an effective E. coli killing. 1-Decyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide [DMIM][TFSI] and trihexyltetradecyl phosphonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide [P6,6,6,14][TFSI] were surface-active and induced bacterial cell lysis, through a membrane-disruption phenomenon on bacteria, in a mechanism that was clearly related to the long alkyl chains of the cation. 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate [EMIM][HSO4] was highly antimicrobial toward E. coli and found suitable for biological applications since it was harmless to mammalian cells at most of the tested concentrations. The results suggest that the imidazolium cation of the ILs is mostly responsible not only for their antimicrobial activity but also for their cytotoxicity, and the inclusion of different anions may tailor the ILs' biocompatibility without losing the capacity to kill bacteria, as is the case of [EMIM][HSO4]. Importantly, this IL was found to be highly antimicrobial even when incorporated in a polymeric matrix.

Abstract
New derivatives of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were synthesized via conjugation with L-amino acid isopropyl esters. The characteristics of the physicochemical properties of the obtained pharmaceutically active ionic liquids were determined. It has been shown how the incorporation of various L-amino acid esters as an ion pair affects the properties of the parent drug. Moreover, the antimicrobial activity of the obtained compounds was evaluated. The proposed structural modifications of commonly used drugs indicate great potential for use in topical and transdermal preparations.

Abstract
The development of novel pharmaceutical tools to efficiently tackle tuberculosis is the order of the day due to the rapid development of resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Herein, we report novel potential formulations of a repurposed drug, the antimalarial mefloquine (MFL), which was combined with organic anions as chemical adjuvants. Eight mefloquine organic salts were obtained by ion metathesis reaction between mefloquine hydrochloride ([MFLH][Cl]) and several organic acid sodium salts in high yields. One of the salts, mefloquine mesylate ([MFLH][MsO]), presented increased water solubility in comparison with [MFLH][Cl]. Moreover, all salts with the exception of mefloquine docusate ([MFLH][AOT]) showed improved permeability and diffusion through synthetic membranes. Finally, in vitro activity studies against Mycobacterium tuberculosis revealed that these ionic formulations exhibited up to 1.5-times lower MIC values when compared with [MFLH][Cl], particularly mefloquine camphorsulfonates ([MFLH][(1R)-CSA], [MFLH][(1S)-CSA]) and mefloquine HEPES ([MFLH][HEPES]).

Oil-in-ionic liquid nanoemulsion-based adjuvant simultaneously enhances the stability and immune responses of inactivated foot-and-mouth disease virus. Int J Pharm 2022; 625:122083. [PMID: 35934167 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2022.122083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 07/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Maintaining structural integrity and enhancing stability of inactivated foot-and-mouth disease virus (iFMDV) antigen in adjuvants is crucial to ensure the vaccine potency. Unfortunately, formulation with most reported adjuvants leads to the accelerated dissociation of iFMDV into inactive pentamers. Here, an ionic liquid, i.e., choline and niacin ([Cho][Nic]), which was found to stabilize iFMDV against the acid- and thermo- induced dissociation in buffer solution, was applied to construct a novel oil-in-ionic liquid (o/IL) nanoemulsion adjuvant composed of [Cho][Nic], squalene, and Tween 80. The o/IL nanoemulsion formulated with iFMDV has a monodisperse diameter of 135.8 ± 40.4 nm. The thermostability and long-term stability of iFMDV were remarkably enhanced in o/IL nanoemulsion compared with that in the o/w emulsion without [Cho][Nic] and in the commercial Montanide ISA 206 adjuvant. The o/IL nanoemulsion exerted its adjuvant effects by improving the humoral immune responses. Immunization of o/IL nanoemulsion adjuvanted iFMDV induced specific IgG titers similar to that adjuvanted by Montanide ISA 206 and about 4-fold higher than the un-adjuvanted iFMDV, also promoted the activation of B lymphocytes and the secretion of interleukin-4 in the mice model. This [Cho][Nic]-based o/IL nanoemulsion can serve as a promising adjuvant platform for the foot-and-mouth disease vaccine.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs), named also as liquid salts, are compounds that have unique properties and molecular architecture. ILs are used in various industries; however, due to their toxicity, the ILs’ recovery from the postreaction solutions is also a very important issue. In this paper, the possibility of 1,3-dialkylimidazolium IL, especially the N,N-dibutylimidazolium chloride ([C4C4IM]Cl) recovery by using the electrodialysis (ED) method was investigated. The influence of [C4C4IM]Cl concentration in diluate solution on the ED efficiency was determined. Moreover, the influence of IL on the ion-exchange membranes’ morphology was examined. The recovery of [C4C4IM]Cl, the [C4C4IM]Cl flux across membranes, the [C4C4IM]Cl concentration degree, the energy consumption, and the current efficiency were determined. The results showed that the ED allows for the [C4C4IM]Cl recovery and concentration from dilute solutions. It was found that the [C4C4IM]Cl content in the concentrates after ED was above three times higher than in the initial diluate solutions. It was noted that the ED of solutions containing 5–20 g/L [C4C4IM]Cl allows for ILs recovery in the range of 73.77–92.45% with current efficiency from 68.66% to 92.99%. The [C4C4IM]Cl recovery depended upon the initial [C4C4IM]Cl concentration in the working solution. The highest [C4C4IM]Cl recovery (92.45%) and ED efficiency (92.99%) were obtained when the [C4C4IM]Cl content in the diluate solution was equal 20 g/L. Presented results proved that ED can be an interesting and effective method for the [C4C4IM]Cl recovery from the dilute aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Topical drug delivery provides several benefits over other conventional routes by providing localizing therapeutic effects and also avoids the gastrointestinal tract circumventing the first-pass metabolism and enzymatic drug degradation. Being painless, the topical route also prevents the difficulties linked with the parenteral route. However, there are limitations to the current topical systems which necessitate the need for further research to find functional excipients to overcome these limitations. This review deals in depth with the ionic liquids concerning their physicochemical properties and applicability as well as their role in the arena of topical drug delivery in permeation enhancement, bioavailability enhancement of the drugs by solvation, and drug moiety modification. The review gives a detailed insight into the recent literature on ionic liquid-based topical formulations like ionic liquid-based emulsions, active pharmaceutical ingredient-ionic liquids, ionic liquid-based bacterial cellulose membranes, topical small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery, and ionogels as a possible solutions for overcoming the challenges associated with the topical route. This review also takes into account the toxicological aspects and biomedical applications of ionic liquids.

Abstract
Despite tremendous efforts, the world continues its fight against the common chronic disease-diabetes. Diabetes is caused by elevated glucose levels in the blood, which can lead to several complications like glaucoma, cataract, kidney failure, diabetic ketoacidosis, heart attack, and stroke. According to recent statistics, China, India, and the US rank at the top three positions with regards to the number of patients affected by diabetes. Ever since its discovery, insulin is one of the major therapeutic molecules that is used to control the disease in the diabetic population, worldwide. The most common route of insulin administration has been the subcutaneous route. However, the limitations associated with this route have motivated global efforts to explore alternative strategies to deliver insulin, including pulmonary, transdermal, nasal, rectal, buccal, and oral routes. Oral insulin delivery is the most convenient and patient-centered route. However, the oral route is also associated with numerous drawbacks that present significant challenges to the scientific fraternity. The human physiological system acts as a formidable barrier to insulin, limiting its bioavailability. The present review covers the major barriers against oral insulin delivery and explains formulation strategies that have been adopted to overcome these barriers. The review focuses on oral insulin delivery strategies (OIDS) for increasing the bioavailability of oral insulin, including nanoparticles, microparticles, nano-in-microparticles, hydrogels, tablets, capsules, intestinal patches, and use of ionic liquids. It also highlights some of the notable recent advancements and clinical trials in oral insulin delivery. This formulation based OIDS may significantly improve patient compliance in the treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
Interferon-alpha 2b (IFN-α 2b) is a therapeutic protein used for the treatment of cancer, viral infections, and auto-immune diseases. Its application is hindered by a low bioavailability and instability in the bloodstream, and the search for new strategies for a target delivery and stabilization of IFN-α 2b to improve its therapeutic efficacy is crucial. Fluorinated ionic liquids (FILs) are promising biomaterials that: (i) can form self-assembled structures; (ii) have complete miscibility in water; and (iii) can be designed to have reduced toxicity. The influence of IFN-α 2b in the aggregation behaviour of FILs and the interactions between them were investigated through conductivity and surface tension measurements, and using electron microscopic and spectroscopy techniques to study FILs feasibility as an interferon-alpha 2b delivery system. The results show that the presence of IFN-α 2b influences the aggregation behaviour of FILs and that strong interaction between the two compounds occurs. The protein might not be fully encapsulated by FILs. However, the FIL can be tailored in the future to carry IFN-α 2b by the formation of a conjugate, which prevents the aggregation of this protein. This work constitutes a first step toward the design and development of FIL-based IFN-α 2b delivery systems.

Abstract
Effective antigen delivery and immune stimulation in nasal mucosa determine the success of mucosal immunity. Here, an oil-in-ionic liquid (o/IL) nanoemulsion formulated with choline and niacin IL ([Cho][Nic]), squalene, and Tween 80 surfactant is explored as a vaccine delivery system for intranasal mucosal immunization. Compared to the o/w emulsion counterpart without the ILs, the o/IL manoemulsion showed a reduced and more uniform size of approximately 168 nm and significantly improved stability. Studies in mice model showed that when was used as an intranasal vaccine delivery system for influenza split-virus antigens, the antigens in the o/IL nanoemulsion induced strong mucosal immune responses with secretory IgA titers 25- and 5.8-fold higher than those of naked and commercial MF59-adjuvanted antigens, respectively. The o/IL nanoemulsion system also induced stronger systemic humoral responses. The excellent mucosal adjuvant effects of the o/IL nanoemulsion mainly benefited from the prolonged retention of antigens in the nasal cavity, enhanced antigen permeation into the submucosa, and the consequently promoted proliferation of CD11b cells and CD4+ T cells in nasal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue. Moreover, when used as an injection adjuvant, the o/IL nanoemulsion also induced stronger humoral immune responses than MF59. Thus, the [Cho][Nic]-based o/IL nanoemulsion vaccine delivery system can serve as a promising adjuvant platform.

Abstract
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by deficient activity of human phenylalanine hydroxylase (hPAH), which can lead to neurologic impairments in untreated patients. Although some therapies are already available for PKU, these are not without drawbacks. Enzyme-replacement therapy through the delivery of functional hPAH could be a promising strategy. In this work, biophysical methods were used to evaluate the potential of [N1112(OH)][C4F9SO3], a biocompatible fluorinated ionic liquid (FIL), as a delivery system of hPAH. The results herein presented show that [N1112(OH)][C4F9SO3] spontaneously forms micelles in a solution that can encapsulate hPAH. This FIL has no significant effect on the secondary structure of hPAH and is able to increase its enzymatic activity, despite the negative impact on protein thermostability. The influence of [N1112(OH)][C4F9SO3] on the complex oligomerization equilibrium of hPAH was also assessed.

Abstract
Donepezil (DPZ) is generally administered orally to treat Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, oral administration can cause gastrointestinal side effects. Therefore, to enhance compliance, a new way to deliver DPZ from transdermal patch was developed. Ionic bonds were created by dissolving dicarboxylic acid and DPZ in ethanol, resulting in a stable ionic liquid (IL) state. The synthesized ILs were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, optical microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The DPZ ILs were then transformed to a suitable drug-in-adhesive patch for transdermal delivery of DPZ. The novel DPZ ILs patch inhibits crystallization of the IL, indicating coherent design. Moreover, DPZ ILs and DPZ IL patch formulations performed excellent skin permeability compared to that of the DPZ free-base patch in both in vitro and ex vivo skin permeability studies.

Abstract
Antibacterial hydrogel dressings play an important role in wound healing and infection treatment. The majority of hydrogels are obtained through chemical cross-linking and complex synthesis or processing. Copper ions (Cu2+) have been involved in sterilization; however, their direct use may lead to high local concentrations and heavy metal toxic side effects. Herein, dopamine (DA) was polymerized in situ along a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) chain and chelated copper ions (Cu2+) to form a mixture. Ionic liquid (IL) choline-glycolate (CGLY) was added to the mixture to form an ionic gel. CGLY promotes gel formation through intermolecular hydrogen bonds with the polymer chains and avoids the use of toxic chemical crosslinking agents. Meanwhile, CGLY can also promote the release of Cu2+ and generate hydrogel free radicals (˙OH) in the wound through chemodynamic therapy to kill drug-resistant bacteria. In addition, the excellent transdermal property of CGLY enables the released Cu2+ to stimulate cell migration and accelerate wound healing. The gel exhibits favorable biocompatibility and its use has been demonstrated in skin infection therapy of mice.

Abstract
Acute inflammation is essential for initiating and coordinating the body's response to injuries and infections. However, in acute inflammatory diseases, inflammation is not resolved but propagates further, which can ultimately lead to tissue damage such as in sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome and deep vein thrombosis. Currently, clinical protocols are limited to systemic steroidal treatments, fluids and antibiotics that focus on eradicating inflammation rather than modulating it. Strategies based on stem cell therapeutics and selective blocking of inflammatory molecules, despite showing great promise, still lack the scalability and specificity required to treat acute inflammation. By contrast, polymeric particle systems benefit from uniform manufacturing at large scales while preserving biocompatibility and versatility, thus providing an ideal platform for immune modulation. Here, we outline design aspects of polymeric particles including material, size, shape, deformability and surface modifications, providing a strategy for optimizing the targeting of acute inflammation.

Abstract
We use first principle approaches to study the adsorption and catalytic activation mechanism of CO2 on ionic liquids (ILs, [CnMIm]+[Cl]- (n = 0-6)) attached to a Au(111) surface. The adsorption of CO2 at this liquid-solid model interface occurs via either (i) parallel π-stacking mode or (ii) CO2 oxygen lone pair (lp)···π interaction. These CO2 physisorption modes, which depend on the CO2 landing angle at this interface, are identified as an efficient way to activate CO2 and its further conversion into value-added products. For illustration, we discuss the conversion of CO2 into formic acid where the ILs@Au(111) decorated interface allows reduction of the activation energy for the CO2 + H2 → HCOOH reaction. In sum, our electrode/electrolyte based interface model provides valuable information to design novel heterogeneous catalysts for CO2 conversion. Indeed, our work establishes that a suitable interface material is enough to activate CO2.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) have increasingly been studied as key materials to upgrade the performance of many pharmaceutical formulations. In controlled delivery systems, ILs have improved multiple physicochemical properties, showing the relevance of continuing to study their incorporation into these formulations. Transfersomes are biocompatible nanovesicular systems, quite useful in controlled delivery. They have promising characteristics, such as elasticity and deformability, making them suitable for cutaneous delivery. Nonetheless, their overall properties and performance may still be improved. Herein, new TransfersomILs systems to load rutin were developed and the physicochemical properties of the formulations were assessed. These systems were prepared based on an optimized formulation obtained from a Box-Behnken factorial design (BBD). The impact of imidazole-based ILs, cholinium-based ILs, and their combinations on the cell viability of HaCaT cells and on the solubility of rutin was initially assessed. The newly developed TransfersomILs containing rutin presented a smaller size and, in general, a higher association efficiency, loading capacity, and total amount of drug release compared to the formulation without IL. The ILs also promoted the colloidal stability of the vesicles, upgrading storage stability. Thus, ILs were a bridge to develop new TransfersomILs systems with an overall improved performance.

Abstract
Insulin is a principal hormone that is involved in the regulation of glucose levels in the blood. Oral insulin formulation is a recent development in drug delivery systems. Biocompatible choline-based ionic liquids (ILs) show promising antibacterial activity and are useful for oral and transdermal drug delivery applications. Choline and geranate (CAGE) ILs enhance the stability and oral efficacy of insulin delivery. The molecular mechanism behind insulin formulation in the oral form is at issue. In the present work, the molecular-level understanding of CAGE ILs in insulin is scrutinized by employing atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. To identify the stability of insulin in an IL medium, we have studied a series of concentration (mole fraction 0.05-1.00) of CAGE ILs with an insulin dimer. It can be well evidenced from the experimental reports that in an aqueous medium, there is a refashioning of CAGE nanostructures at 0.50 mole fraction. It is found from our calculations that the first solvation shell of insulin is readily occupied by choline and geranate ions in the presence of water. Moreover, the geranate ions strongly interacted with the water molecules and thereby, eliminating the intermolecular hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) interactions towards the insulin at 0.30-0.50 mole fraction of CAGE ILs. The most desirable 0.30-0.50 mole fraction of CAGE invigorates water-mediated H-bonding interactions with geranate ions, which also enhances the electrostatic behavior around the vicinity of the insulin dimer. These important findings can help in the development of oral insulin drug delivery and related applications.

Abstract
Tunable aryl alkyl ionic liquids (TAAILs) based on the imidazolium cation were first reported in 2009. Since then, a series of TAAILs with different properties due to the electron‐donating or ‐withdrawing effect of the substituents at the aryl ring has been developed. Herein, a wide variety of those ionic liquids (ILs) is presented in terms of their cation structure. The authors synthesized ILs containing the bromide or bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide anion and 1‐aryl‐3‐alkyl imidazolium cations with various substituents in the ortho and/ or para position of the phenyl ring and alkyl chains of different lengths varying from butyl to dodecyl. The differences of their physical properties (melting point, thermal decomposition, viscosity, electro‐chemical window) of these ILs are reported according to their structure.
