Abstract
Caffeic acid (CA) is a polyphenol belonging to the phenylpropanoid family, commonly found in plants and vegetables. It was first identified by Hlasiwetz in 1867 as a breakdown product of caffetannic acid. CA is biosynthesized from the amino acids tyrosine or phenylalanine through specific enzyme-catalyzed reactions. Extensive research since its discovery has revealed various health benefits associated with CA, including its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. These effects are attributed to its ability to modulate several pathways, such as inhibiting NFkB, STAT3, and ERK1/2, thereby reducing inflammatory responses, and activating the Nrf2/ARE pathway to enhance antioxidant cell defenses. The consumption of CA has been linked to a reduced risk of certain cancers, mitigation of chemotherapy and radiotherapy-induced toxicity, and reversal of resistance to first-line chemotherapeutic agents. This suggests that CA could serve as a useful adjunct in cancer treatment. Studies have shown CA to be generally safe, with few adverse effects (such as back pain and headaches) reported. This review collates the latest information from Google Scholar, PubMed, the Phenol-Explorer database, and ClinicalTrials.gov, incorporating a total of 154 articles, to underscore the potential of CA in cancer prevention and overcoming chemoresistance.

Abstract
Treatment of 3-(3,4-di-hydroxy-phen-yl)propenoic acid (caffeic acid or 3,4-di-hydroxy-cinnamic acid) with the alkali hydroxides MOH (M = Li, Na) in aqueous solution led to the formation of poly[aqua-[μ-3-(3,4-di-hydroxy-phen-yl)propenoato]lithium], [Li(C9H7O4)(H2O)]n, 1, and poly[aqua-[μ-3-(3,4-di-hydroxy-phen-yl)propenoato]sodium], [Na(C9H7O4)(H2O)]n, 2. The crystal structure of 1 consists of a lithium cation that is coordinated nearly tetra-hedrally by three carboxyl-ate oxygen atoms and a water mol-ecule. The carboxyl-ate groups adopt a μ3-κ3 O:O':O' coordination mode that leads to a chain-like catenation of Li cations and carboxyl-ate units parallel to the b axis. Moreover, the lithium carboxyl-ate chains are connected by hydrogen bonds between water mol-ecules attached to lithium and catechol OH groups. The crystal structure of 2 shows a sevenfold coordination of the sodium cation by one water mol-ecule, two monodentately binding carboxyl-ate groups and four oxygen atoms from two catechol groups. The coordination polyhedra are linked by face- and edge-sharing into chains extending parallel to the b axis. The chains are inter-linked by the bridging 3-(3,4-di-hydroxy-phen-yl)propenoate units and by inter-molecular hydrogen bonds to form the tri-periodic network.

Abstract
To improve the solubility and dissolution rate of the BCS class II drug ketoconazole, five novel solid forms in 1:1 stoichiometry were obtained upon liquid-assisted grinding, slurry, and slow evaporation methods in the presence of coformers, namely, glutaric, vanillic, 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic, protocatechuic, and 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acids. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the hydroxyl/carboxylic acid. . .N-imidazole motif acts as the dominant supramolecular interaction in the obtained solid forms. The solubility of ketoconazole in distilled water significantly increased from 1.2 to 2165.6, 321.6, 139.1, 386.3, and 191.7 μg mL-1 in the synthesized multi-component forms with glutaric, vanillic, 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic, protocatechuic, and 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid, respectively. In particular, the cocrystal form with glutaric acid showed an 1800-fold solubility increase in water concerning ketoconazole. Our study provides an alternative approach to improve the solubility and modify the release profile of poorly water-soluble drugs such as ketoconazole.

Cocrystallization of 5-fluorouracil with gallic acid: A novel 5-fluorouracil cocrystal displaying synergistic anti-tumor activity both in oral and intraperitoneal injection administration. Eur J Pharm Biopharm 2023; 187:12-23. [PMID: 37031731 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2023.04.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 04/11/2023]
Abstract
Gallic acid (GA) is a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound exhibiting anti-tumor activity. To clarify the capability of GA in optimizing the in vitro/in vivo properties of the first line anti-tumor drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and achieve synergistically enhanced anti-tumor activity, a novel cocrystal hydrate of 5-FU-GA-H2O was successfully screened and characterized based on various spectroscopic and experimental analysis including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectra (Raman), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric (TG) and scanning electric microscope (SEM) techniques. The results suggested the existence of hydrogen bonding interactions between C=O group of 5-FU and O-H group of GA. Although the dissolution rate and solubility of 5-FU-GA-H2O cocrystal were slowed and lowered compared with that of 5-FU, respectively, the membrane permeability was enhanced for cocrystal compared with that of intact 5-FU and physical mixture (PM) of 5-FU and GA. For the cocrystal, the cumulative amount per unit area of permeated 5-FU in the first 10 h was 2.56 and 9.97 times of that of pure 5-FU and PM, respectively, in the case that transmembrane behavior of 5-FU depended on the type of solution from which the powder was dissolved. Meanwhile, improvement on oral bioavailability by co-crystallization was observed; AUC0-t of cocrystal was 2.78-fold higher than that of 5-FU. Furthermore, the cocrystal displayed a superior cytotoxic activity on 4T1 mouse breast cancer cells compared with pure 5-FU and even the PM. It was confirmed that the cocrystal solution induced higher autophagic flux than those of 5-FU and PM in 4T1 cell, suggesting that autophagy rather than apoptosis mainly mediated cell death. The obvious difference of tumor inhibition activity between PM and cocrystal in intraperitoneal injection administration indicated that some of the interactions formed in the solid cocrystal could retain in solution in some way. Benefiting from synergistic cytotoxicity, drug efficacy in vivo was enhanced through injection administration of solution from which cocrystal was dissolved.

Abstract
Aim: To explore how to transform cocrystals of the anticancer drug 5-fluorouracil (FL) with caffeic acid (CF; FL-CF-2H2O) into a nanoformulation, a self-assembly strategy of cocrystal-loaded micelles is proposed. Methods: Nanomicelles were assembled to deliver cocrystal FL-CF-2H2O with synergistic activity, and their in vitro/vivo properties were evaluated by combining theoretical and experimental methods. Result: More cocrystal was packed into the polymers due to the stronger interaction energy during micellar assembly, producing excellent cytotoxicity and pharmacokinetic behavior, especially synergistic abilities and long-term therapy. Conclusion: This case exemplifies the particular benefits of the self-assembly strategy of cocrystal-loaded micelles in keeping a delicate balance between long-term effects and high efficiency for FL, and offers a feasible technical scheme for cocrystal delivery agents for antitumor drugs.

Abstract
Cancer ranks as the second foremost cause of death in various corners of the globe. The clinical uses of assorted anticancer therapeutics have been limited owing to the poor physicochemical attributes, pharmacokinetic performance, and lethal toxicities. Various sorts of co-crystals or nano co-crystals or co-crystals-laden nanocarriers have presented great promise in targeting cancer via improved physicochemical attributes, pharmacokinetic performance, and reduced toxicities. These systems have also demonstrated the controlled cargo release and passive targeting via enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect. In addition, regional delivery of co-crystals via inhalation and transdermal route displayed remarkable potential in targeting lung and skin cancer effectively. However, more research is required on the use of co-crystals in cancer and their commercialization. The present review mainly emphasizes co-crystals as emerging avenues in the treatment of various cancers by modulating the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic attributes of approved anticancer therapeutics. The worth of co-crystals in cancer treatment, computational paths in the co-crystals screening, diverse experimental techniques of co-crystals fabrication, and sorts of co-crystals and their noteworthy applications in targeting cancer are also discussed. Besides, the game changer approaches like nano co-crystals and co-crystals-laden nanocarriers, and co-crystals in regional delivery in cancer are also explained with reported case studies. Furthermore, regulatory directives for pharmaceutical co-crystals and their scale-up, and challenges are also highlighted with concluding remarks and future initiatives. In essence, co-crystals and nano co-crystals emerge to be a promising strategy in overwhelming cancers through improving anticancer efficacy, safety, patient compliance, and reducing the cost.

Yang X, Chen DF, Li LS, Zhao XJ, Zhao MX. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with fluorescent coumarin-5-fluorouracil conjugates as mitochondrial-targeting theranostic probes for tumor cells. NANOTECHNOLOGY 2021; 32:455101.

Abstract
In this study, a nanodrug carrier (mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN)-SS-cysteamine hydrochloride (CS)-hyaluronic acid (HA)) for targeted drug delivery was prepared using MSNs, in which HA was used as a targeting ligand and blocking agent to control drug release. Coumarin is a fluorescent molecule that targets mitochondria. Two conjugates (XDS-DJ and 5-FUA-4C-XDS) were synthesized by chemically coupling nitrogen mustard and 5-fluorouracil with coumarin, which was further loaded into MSN-SS-CS-HA nanocarriers. MTT analysis demonstrated that the nanocomposite MSN-SS-CS@5-FUA-4C-XDS/HA displayed stronger cytotoxicity toward HCT-116 cells than HeLa or QSG-7701 cells. Furthermore, MSN-SS-CS@5-FUA-4C-XDS/HA was able to target the mitochondria of HCT-116 cells, causing decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and excessive production of reactive oxygen species. These results indicate that MSN-SS-CS@5-FUA-4C-XDS/HA has the potential to be a nanodrug delivery system for the treatment of colon cancer.

Abstract
We describe a supramolecular synthesis of a ternary cocrystal involving resveratrol and 5-fluorouracil (5-fu) with trans-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (bpe). We also have discovered a polymorph of a binary cocrystal involving 5-fu and bpe that originates from rare supramolecular isomerism.
