The Effect of Different Factors on Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) Nanoparticle Properties and Drug Release Behaviors When Co-Loaded with Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Drugs. Polymers (Basel) 2024; 16:865. [PMID: 38611123 PMCID: PMC11013797 DOI: 10.3390/polym16070865] [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: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles (PLGA NPs) are versatile drug nanocarriers with a wide spectrum of applications owing to their extensive advantages, including biodegradability, non-toxic side effects, and low immunogenicity. Among the numerous nanoparticle preparation methods available for PLGA NPs (the hydrophobic polymer), one of the most extensively utilized preparations is the sonicated-emulsified solvent evaporation method, owing to its simplicity, speed, convenience, and cost-effectiveness. Nevertheless, several factors can influence the outcomes, such as the types of concentration of the surfactants and organic solvents, as well as the volume of the aqueous phase. The objective of this article is to explore the influence of these factors on the properties of PLGA NPs and their drug release behavior following encapsulation. Herein, PLGA NPs were fabricated using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a surfactant to investigate the impact of influencing factors, including different water-soluble organic solvents such as propylene carbonate (PC), ethyl acetate (PA), and dichloromethane (DCM). Notably, the size of PLGA NPs was smaller in the EA group compared to that in the DCM group. Moreover, PLGA NPs showed excellent stability, ascribed to the presence of the BSA surfactant. Furthermore, PLGA NPs were co-loaded with varying concentrations of hydrophilic drugs (doxorubicin hydrochloride) and hydrophobic drugs (celecoxib), and exhibited pH-sensitive drug release behavior in PBS with pH 7.4 and pH 5.5.

Nanoencapsulation of Methylene-Blue for Enhanced Skin Cancer Cell Phototoxicity and Cutaneous Penetration in Association with Sonophoresis. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15051371. [PMID: 37242613 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15051371] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using methylene blue (MB) as a photosensitizer has emerged as an alternative treatment for skin cancers, such as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). To increase the cutaneous penetration of the drug, some strategies are used, such as the association of nanocarriers and physical methods. Thus, herein we address the development of nanoparticles based on poly-Ɛ-caprolactone (PCL), optimized with the Box-Behnken factorial design, for topical application of MB associated with sonophoresis. The MB-nanoparticles were developed using the double emulsification-solvent evaporation technique and the optimized formulation resulted in an average size of 156.93 ± 8.27 nm, a polydispersion index of 0.11 ± 0.05, encapsulation efficiency of 94.22 ± 2.19% and zeta potential of -10.08 ± 1.12 mV. Morphological evaluation by scanning electron microscopy showed spherical nanoparticles. In vitro release studies show an initial burst compatible with the first-order mathematical model. The nanoparticle showed satisfactory generation of reactive oxygen species. The MTT assay was used to assess cytotoxicity and IC50; values of 79.84; 40.46; 22.37; 9.90 µM were obtained, respectively, for the MB-solution and the MB-nanoparticle without and with light irradiation after 2 h of incubation. Analysis using confocal microscopy showed high cellular uptake for the MB-nanoparticle. With regard to skin penetration, a higher concentration of MB was observed in the epidermis + dermis, corresponding to 9.81, 5.27 μg/cm2 in passive penetration and 24.31 and 23.81 μg/cm2 after sonophoresis, for solution-MB and nanoparticle-MB, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of MB encapsulation in PCL nanoparticles for application in skin cancer using PDT.

Abstract
Glycyrrhizic acid (GA) is one of the components of licorice roots (Glycyrrhiza glabra L.). GA is a triterpenoid saponin can be used as a medicinal plant with its antiallergic, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer, hepatoprotective, anticancer, anti-oxidation activities and several other therapeutic properties. The aim of this study is to develop an anti-aging formulation for topical application containing GA. In this context, GA-loaded Poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared using the double emulsion method, and were characterized by various spectroscopic methods. The efficacy of GA-PLGA NPs was evaluated with in vitro and in silico methods. The encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity were calculated. The in vitro release study was conducted, and the GA release profile was determined. The genotoxic activity of GA and GA-PLGA NPs was evaluated by the Ames test using TA98 and TA100 mutant strains of Salmonella typhimurium. The cytotoxic potential of GA-PLGA NPs was evaluated on the HaCaT cell line using the MTT assay. According to the genotoxicity and cytotoxicity results, it was found that the GA-PLGA NP formulation did not exhibit genotoxic and cytotoxic effects. Moreover, the efficacy of GA in preventing UVB-induced photo-aging in HaCaT cells and the clarification of the molecular mechanism of GA binding to MMPs were revealed by molecular docking analysis. In addition, through molecular dynamics (MD) analysis, the binding interaction of GA with MMPs in a dynamic system, and protein-ligand stability were predicted as a result of 50 ns MD simulation studies considering various analysis parameters. Finally, it was evaluated that GA-PLGA nanoformulation might be used as an alternative anti-aging skin care product candidate via topical application.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to fabrication of α-terpineol-PLGA nanoparticles coated with folic acid-chitosan (αT-PCF-NPs) as well as evaluates their anticancer effects. αT-PCF-NPs were synthesized using the nanoprecipitation method and characterized by Dynamic light scattering (DLS), zeta potential (ZP), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. Folic acid (FA) binding rate and entrapment efficiency of α-T were assessed by HPLC method. MTT assay was performed for cytotoxicity assessment. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis, acridine orange and propodium iodide (AO/PI) staining and cell cycle analysis were done to assess the pro-apoptotic properties of αT-PCF-NPs. Molecular analysis for angiogenesis and antioxidant properties and murine colon cancer model for antitumor effects of αT-PCF-NPs were used. The % FA-binding and encapsulation efficiency of α-T in αT-PCF-NPs (particle size of 263.95 nm, polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.25, and surface charge of +38.20 mV) was reported to be 67% and 88.1% respectively. The higher inhibitory effect of αT-PCF-NPs on cancer cells compared to HFF cells was confirmed. The pro-apoptotic effect of αT-PCF-NPs was showed by increased SubG1 phase cells, AO/PI staining results and up and down regulation Bax and Bcl-2 as pro and anti-apoptotic genes in HT-29 cells. Antioxidant (SOD) and angiogenesis genes (VEGF and VEGF-R) were inhibited by αT-PCF-NPs exposure in HT-29 cells and also decreased the size of murine tumors was confirmed in exposure of αT-PCF-NPs. αT-PCF-NPs can be considered as a promising anticancer drug for colon cancer.

Co-Encapsulation of Methylene Blue and PARP-Inhibitor into Poly(Lactic-Co-Glycolic Acid) Nanoparticles for Enhanced PDT of Cancer. NANOMATERIALS 2021; 11:nano11061514.

Abstract
The development of resistance against photodamage triggered by photodynamic therapy (PDT) is ascribed mainly to the cellular redox defenses and repair. If the tumor tissue is not promptly eliminated by the first few PDT sessions, PDT-resistance can be favored, challenging the efficacy of the treatment. Although the mechanism of PDT resistance is still unclear, in vitro assays have evidenced that it can be developed through the PARP damage-repair signaling pathway. Therefore, inhibition of poly(adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose) polymerase (PARP) has the potential to increase PDT efficacy. This work reports on the synthesis of a controlled release system of a photosensitizer, methylene blue (MB) and a PARP-inhibitor, the veliparib. MB and veliparib were co-encapsulated in poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (VMB-NPs). A colloidal stable aqueous suspension of nanoparticles was obtained. The average hydrodynamic diameter was 90 nm and a narrow size distribution was obtained, with a polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.08. The release kinetics of MB and veliparib from VMB-NPs showed an initial burst of 8.7% and 58.3% release of the total amounts of MB and veliparib respectively, in the first 6 h, and a delayed release of up to 11.3% and 70%, in 19 days, for MB and veliparib, respectively. The VMB-NPs showed no cytotoxicity in the dark but the viability of B16F10-Nex2 cells decreased by 36% when the cells were irradiated (102 J/cm2, 660 nm) and treated with VMB-NPs containing 1.0 µM of MB and 8.3 µM of veliparib. Considering the increased photoactivity even at low MB and veliparib concentrations and the absence of cytotoxicity in dark, the co-encapsulation of MB and veliparib was shown to be a promising strategy to improve the PDT efficacy.

Abstract
Polyketals are a class of acid-responsive polymers that have been relatively less explored for drug delivery applications compared to polyesters. The degradation of these polymers is accelerated in an acidic medium and does not result in acidic byproducts. Their biocompatibility depends on the diol used for the synthesis. The present work aims to synthesize, characterize, and fabricate nanospheres of an aliphatic polyketal for delivery of the nucleotide analogue cytarabine toward the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The internalization mechanism of the nanospheres was probed, and its implication on the nuclear localization and escape from the endo-lysosomal compartments were studied. The drug-loaded polyketal nanoparticles reduced the cell viability to a greater extent compared with the free drug. The effect of the drug-loaded polyketal nanoparticles on the differential gene expression of leukemic cells was investigated for the first time to understand their therapeutic implications. It was found that treatment with drug-loaded polyketal nanoparticles downregulated AML-specific genes involved in cell proliferation and recurrence compared to the free drug. The protein expression studies were performed for selected genes obtained from gene expression analysis. Biodistribution studies showed that the poly(cyclohexane-1,4-diyl acetone dimethylene ketal) (PCADK) nanoparticles exhibit prolonged circulation time. Overall, our results suggest that polyketal-based delivery of cytarabine represents a more effective alternative strategy for AML therapy.

Abstract
The current study explored the feasibility of a microfluidic preparation of PLGA composite microspheres with mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) to finely manipulate the drug release behaviors of the microspheres. MSNs were synthesized via a hydrothermal method, and PLGA microspheres loaded with MSNs (PLGA-MSNs) were prepared using a capillary-based three-phase microfluidic device. Drug loading and release behaviors using rhodamine B (RB) as a water-soluble model drug were investigated and compared with those of PLGA microspheres. MSNs with an average particle size of 119 nm, a specific surface area of 902.5 cm2/g, and a pore size of approximately 5 nm were obtained. The mean diameter of PLGA-MSNs was 56 μm (CV = 4.91%). A sustained release duration of encapsulated RB from PLGA-MSNs for 4 months was achieved without any observable burst release. PLGA microspheres with monodispersion could also allow for a similar release duration of encapsulated RB but encountered a burst release in the mid-term of the studied duration. PLGA-MSNs had a denser outer PLGA layer and a more centralized hollow hole than PLGA microspheres without MSNs. Hence, the incorporation of MSNs into PLGA microspheres via microfluidics could be an efficient strategy to finely tune the drug release behavior of PLGA microspheres.

Abstract
Cilnidipine (CND) is known to have low oral bioavailability due to its poor aqueous solubility, low dissolution rate, and high gut wall metabolism. In the present study, CND-loaded PLGA nanoparticles (CND-PLGA-NPs) were prepared with two different grades of PLGA (50:50 and 75:25) by design of experiment. Critical factors affecting particle size and entrapment efficiency (EE%) were assessed by mixed design approach, comprising of Plackett-Burman design followed by rotatable central composite design. Particle size, PDI, zeta potential, and EE% of optimized formulations of CND-PLGA(50:50)-NPs and CND-PLGA(75:25)-NPs were 211.6 ± 1.8 nm, 0.21 ± 0.05, - 15.1 ± 1.6 mV, and 85.9 ± 1.5% and 243.5 ± 2.4 nm, 0.23 ± 0.06, -19.6 ± 1.3 mV, and 92.0 ± 1.2% respectively. No significant changes were observed in physical stability of NPs when stored at 25 °C/60% RH over a period of 3 months. Pharmacokinetic studies revealed that Fabs of CND-PLGA(50:50)-NPs (1.15) and CND-PLGA(75:25)-NPs (2.23) were significantly higher than the free CND (0.26). The Cmax and AUC0-∞ of CND-PLGA(50:50)-NPs (787.42 ± 27.38 ng/mL and 9339.37 ± 252.38 ng/ml × h) and CND-PLGA(75:25)-NPs (803.49 ± 19.63 ng/mL and 18,153.34 ± 543.05 ng/ml × h) were significantly higher (p ˂ 0.0001) compared with free CND (367.69 ± 47.22 ng/mL and 2107.95 ± 136.40 ng/ml × h). MRTOral of CND-PLGA(50:50)-NPs (33.36 ± 0.48 h) and CND-PLGA(75:25)-NPs (48.37 ± 0.61 h) were significantly higher (p ˂ 0.0001) compared with free CND (4.69 ± 0.58 h). CND-PLGA-NPs can provide higher and sustained plasma drug levels of CND and be effective in antihypertensive therapy. Graphical abstract.
