Das S. Pectin based multi-particulate carriers for colon-specific delivery of therapeutic agents. Int J Pharm 2021; 605:120814. [PMID: 34147609 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2021.120814] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2021] [Revised: 06/14/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
In case of colon-specific delivery of therapeutic agents through oral route, microbial/enzyme-triggered release approach has several advantages over other approaches due to unique microbial ecosystem in the colon. Multiple-unit carriers have an edge over single-unit carriers for this purpose. Among different materials/polymers explored, pectin appears as a promising biopolymer to construct microbial-triggered colon-specific carriers. Pectin is specifically degraded by colonic enzymes but insusceptible to upper gastro-intestinal enzymes. In this article, utilization of pectin solely or in combination with other polymers and/or colonic-delivery approaches is critically discussed in detail in the context of multi-particulate systems. Several studies showed that pectin-based carriers can prevent the release of payload in the stomach but start to release in the intestine. Hence, pectin alone may construct delayed release formulation but may not be sufficient for effective colon-targeting. On the other hand, combination of pectin with other materials/polymers (e.g., chitosan and Eudragit® S-100) has demonstrated huge promise for colon-specific release of payload. Hence, smartly designed pectin-based multi-particulate carriers, especially in combination with other polymers and/or colon-targeting approaches (e.g., microbial-triggered + pH-triggered or microbial-triggered + pH-triggered + time-release or microbial-triggered + pH-triggered + pressure-based), can be successful colon-specific delivery systems. However, more clinical trials are necessary to bring this idea from bench to bedside.

Enhanced Oral Bioavailability of Resveratrol by Using Neutralized Eudragit E Solid Dispersion Prepared via Spray Drying. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:antiox10010090. [PMID: 33440781 PMCID: PMC7828062 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10010090] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2020] [Revised: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 01/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, we designed amorphous solid dispersions based on Eudragit E/HCl (neutralized Eudragit E using hydrochloric acid) to maximize the dissolution of trans-resveratrol. Solid-state characterization of amorphous solid dispersions of trans-resveratrol was performed using powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and particle size measurements. In addition, an in vitro dissolution study and an in vivo pharmacokinetic study in rats were carried out. Among the tested polymers, Eudragit E/HCl was the most effective solid dispersion for the solubilization of trans-resveratrol. Eudragit E/HCl significantly inhibited the precipitation of trans-resveratrol in a pH 1.2 dissolution medium in a dose-dependent manner. The amorphous Eudragit E/HCl solid dispersion at a trans-resveratrol/polymer ratio of 10/90 exhibited a high degree of supersaturation without trans-resveratrol precipitation for at least 48 h by the formation of Eudragit E/HCl micelles. In rats, the absolute oral bioavailability (F%) of trans-resveratrol from Eudragit E/HCl solid dispersion (10/90) was estimated to be 40%. Therefore, trans-resveratrol-loaded Eudragit E/HCl solid dispersions prepared by spray drying offer a promising formulation strategy with high oral bioavailability for developing high-quality health supplements, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical products.

Abstract
Introduction:
Resveratrol and its monooxygenated metabolite oxyresveratrol
were the subject matter of intense research due to their medicinal value. Absorption, distribution,
metabolism and excretion are important to understand the bioavailability and pharmacokinetic
profile of resveratrol and oxyresveratrol. Quantification of resveratrol and
oxyresveratrol is essential for both in vitro and in vivo studies.
Methods:
During in vitro drug metabolism studies, both qualitative and quantitative information
are essential to understand the metabolic profile of resveratrol and oxyresveratrol. In
the present study, a simple and stable method is outlined using high performance liquid
chromatography to quantify both resveratrol and oxyresveratrol. This method is suitable to
understand the metabolic stability, plasma stability, pharmacokinetics and toxicokinetics of
resveratrol and oxyresveratrol.
Results:
Generally, in vitro incubation studies are performed at high concentrations and in
vivo studies are carried out at both high and low concentrations, therefore high performance
liquid chromatography method is demonstrated as a suitable technique to quantify resveratrol
and oxyresveratrol.
Conclusion:
Retention time of resveratrol and oxyresveratrol from liquid chromatography
qualitatively confirm its identity.

Microemulsion composed of combination of skin beneficial oils as vehicle: Development of resveratrol-loaded microemulsion based formulations for skin care applications. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2020; 194:111161. [PMID: 32521462 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2020.111161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2020] [Revised: 05/23/2020] [Accepted: 05/28/2020] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
Microemulsion can be a potential delivery vehicle to deliver skin care actives to deep skin layer for chronic skin care benefits. On top of skin care active, microemulsion vehicle composed of multiple skin beneficial oils can deliver additional skin care efficacies. In this study, microemulsions were developed using combinations of two skin beneficial oils, tea tree oil and medium chain triglyceride instead of single oil. For that, pseudo ternary phase diagrams were constructed on these oil combinations at different ratios of surfactant/co-surfactants. Ratio of oils and surfactant/co-surfactant combinations exhibited significant impact on the microemulsion region. A few compositions were selected from the single phase microemulsion regions of these phase diagrams for the preparation of resveratrol-loaded microemulsion and microemulsion gel formulations. The particle size of the resveratrol-loaded microemulsions were <50 nm. Cryogenic scanning electron microscope image clearly showed nano-droplets dispersed in continuous phase. Both physical and chemical stability of the formulations varied depending on their compositions, such as surfactant/co-surfactant combination and % total oil. The presence of chelating agent and anti-oxidant was also crucial to stabilize the formulations. The selected formulations demonstrated good physicochemical stability at 5 °C, 25 °C, and 40 °C/75 % RH (relative humidity) stability conditions. The results further showed that the % total oil and surfactant phase composition had huge influence on resveratrol release and skin permeation patterns from the microemulsion gels. In vitro skin permeation result indicated that the microemulsion gels can help resveratrol penetration into deep skin layer. Therefore, the developed resveratrol-loaded microemulsion gels can be utilized as skin care product with multiple skin care benefits.

Pure Trans-Resveratrol Nanoparticles Prepared by A Supercritical Antisolvent Process Using Alcohol and Dichloromethane Mixtures: Effect of Particle Size on Dissolution and Bioavailability in Rats. Antioxidants (Basel) 2020; 9:antiox9040342. [PMID: 32331478 PMCID: PMC7222356 DOI: 10.3390/antiox9040342] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2020] [Revised: 04/20/2020] [Accepted: 04/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to prepare pure trans-resveratrol nanoparticles without additives (surfactants, polymers, and sugars) using a supercritical antisolvent (SAS) process with alcohol (methanol or ethanol) and dichloromethane mixtures. In addition, in order to investigate the effect of particle size on the dissolution and oral bioavailability of the trans-resveratrol, two microparticles with different sizes (1.94 μm and 18.75 μm) were prepared using two different milling processes, and compared to trans-resveratrol nanoparticles prepared by the SAS process. The solid-state properties of pure trans-resveratrol particles were characterized. By increasing the percentage of dichloromethane in the solvent mixtures, the mean particle size of trans-resveratrol was decreased, whereas its specific surface area was increased. The particle size could thus be controlled by solvent composition. Trans-resveratrol nanoparticle with a mean particle size of 0.17 μm was prepared by the SAS process using the ethanol/dichloromethane mixture at a ratio of 25/75 (w/w). The in vitro dissolution rate of trans-resveratrol in fasted state-simulated gastric fluid was significantly improved by the reduction of particle size, resulting in enhanced oral bioavailability in rats. The absolute bioavailability of trans-resveratrol nanoparticles was 25.2%. The maximum plasma concentration values were well correlated with the in vitro dissolution rate. These findings clearly indicate that the oral bioavailability of trans-resveratrol can be enhanced by preparing pure trans-resveratrol nanoparticles without additives (surfactants, polymers, and sugars) by the SAS process. These pure trans-resveratrol nanoparticles can be applied as an active ingredient for the development of health supplements, pharmaceutical products, and cosmetic products.

Development of a Resveratrol Nanosuspension Using the Antisolvent Precipitation Method without Solvent Removal, Based on a Quality by Design (QbD) Approach. Pharmaceutics 2019; 11:E688. [PMID: 31861173 PMCID: PMC6955680 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics11120688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2019] [Revised: 12/11/2019] [Accepted: 12/16/2019] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop a resveratrol nanosuspension with enhanced oral bioavailability, based on an understanding of the formulation and process parameters of nanosuspensions and using a quality by design (QbD) approach. Particularly, the antisolvent method, which requires no solvent removal and no heating, is newly applied to prepare resveratrol nanosuspension. To ensure the quality of the resveratrol nanosuspensions, a quality target product profile (QTPP) was defined. The particle size (z-average, d90), zeta potential, and drug content parameters affecting the QTPP were selected as critical quality attributes (CQAs). The optimum composition obtained using a 3-factor, 3-level Box-Behnken design was as follows: polyvinylpyrrolidone vinyl acetate (10 mg/mL), polyvinylpyrrolidone K12 (5 mg/mL), sodium lauryl sulfate (1 mg/mL), and diethylene glycol monoethyl ether (DEGEE, 5% v/v) at a resveratrol concentration of 5 mg/mL. The initial particle size (z-average) was 46.3 nm and the zeta potential was -38.02 mV. The robustness of the antisolvent process using the optimized composition conditions was ensured by a full factorial design. The dissolution rate of the optimized resveratrol nanosuspension was significantly greater than that of the resveratrol raw material. An in vivo pharmacokinetic study in rats showed that the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC0-12h) and the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) respectively, than those of the resveratrol raw material. Therefore, the prepara values of the resveratrol nanosuspension were approximately 1.6- and 5.7-fold higher,tion of a resveratrol nanosuspension using the QbD approach may be an effective strategy for the development of a new dosage form of resveratrol, with enhanced oral bioavailability.

Preparation and Evaluation of Resveratrol-Loaded Composite Nanoparticles Using a Supercritical Fluid Technology for Enhanced Oral and Skin Delivery. Antioxidants (Basel) 2019; 8:antiox8110554.

Abstract
We created composite nanoparticles containing hydrophilic additives using a supercritical antisolvent (SAS) process to increase the solubility and dissolution properties of trans-resveratrol for application in oral and skin delivery. Physicochemical properties of trans-resveratrol-loaded composite nanoparticles were characterized. In addition, an in vitro dissolution-permeation study, an in vivo pharmacokinetic study in rats, and an ex vivo skin permeation study in rats were performed. The mean particle size of all the composite nanoparticles produced was less than 300 nm. Compared to micronized trans-resveratrol, the trans-resveratrol/hydroxylpropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC)/poloxamer 407 (1:4:1) nanoparticles with the highest flux (0.792 μg/min/cm2) exhibited rapid absorption and showed significantly higher exposure 4 h after oral administration. Good correlations were observed between in vitro flux and in vivo pharmacokinetic data. The increased solubility and flux of trans-resveratrol generated by the HPMC/surfactant nanoparticles increased the driving force on the gastrointestinal epithelial membrane and rat skin, resulting in enhanced oral and skin delivery of trans-resveratrol. HPMC/surfactant nanoparticles produced by an SAS process are, thus, a promising formulation method for trans-resveratrol for healthcare products (owing to their enhanced absorption via oral administration) and for skin application with cosmetic products.

Abstract
The development of nanodelivery systems that protect trans-resveratrol is extremely important to preserve its bioactive properties in the development of further applications as nutraceuticals to supplement foods and beverages. In this work, a validated HPLC method was developed for the quantification of trans-resveratrol in lipid nanoparticles for application in studies of in vitro intestinal permeability. The chromatographic separation was achieved in a C18 monolithic column connected to a fluorometric detector (330/374 nm), by isocratic elution consisting of 2% acetic acid/acetonitrile (80:20). Two calibration ranges were established (0.020-0.200 and 0.200-2.00 μmol L(-1)), and low quantification limits (2-6 nmol L(-1), 23-69 pg) were achieved. Stability studies showed that trans-resveratrol is stable for 24 h at 4 °C, and storage at room temperature and freeze-thaw cycles are not recommended. The proposed method was applied to in vitro intestinal permeability studies, in which values between 0.05 ± 0.01 and 1.8 ± 0.3 μmol L(-1) were found.

Abstract
Resveratrol, a natural polyphenolic compound present in trees, in peanuts, in grapevines and exhibited multiple pharmacological activities. Extensive research in last two decades suggested that resveratrol possesses anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-viral, anti-amyloid, anti-arthritic and antioxidant properties. Some clinical reports have proposed that resveratrol might be a potential candidate for the prevention and/or treatment of HIV/AIDS and synergistically enhances the anti-HIV-1 activity. Resveratrol is not toxic to cells, and by itself reduces viral replication by 20% to 30%. With almost 12% of the world population suffering from HIV/AIDS including its resurgence in the developed world, better management of this global threat is highly desired. Further, various studies demonstrated several issues associated with resveratrol which account for its poor systemic bioavailability (almost zero) due to rapid and extensive first pass metabolism and existence of enterohepatic recirculation. In order to improve bioavailability and cellular uptake of resveratrol, various strategies have been adopted to date which includes resveratrol prodrug and the development of nanostructured delivery systems. Besides, nanostructured delivery systems are also known to inhibit the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux, reduced metabolism by gut cytochrome P-450 enzymes, and circumnavigate the hepatic first-pass effect, facilitating absorption of drugs via intestinal lymphatic pathways. This review paper provides an updated bird's-eye view account on the publications and patents study on the recent novel approaches to deliver resveratrol in order to enhance oral bioavailability, overcome first pass metabolism and trounce enterohepatic recirculation to make resveratrol a therapeutically potent drug. Providing a relatively pithy overview, this paper thus presents recent advances of resveratrol for the treatment and prevention of HIV/AIDS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The current studies entail successful formulation of systematically optimized (OPT) nanoparticulate drug delivery system to increase the oral bioavailability using Eudragit RL 100 of trans-resveratrol (t-RVT), and evaluate their in-vitro/in-vivo performance. METHODS t-RVT-loaded Eudragit RL 100 nanoparticles (t-RVT NPs) were prepared by nanoprecipitation method. The nanoparticles (NPs) were systematically optimized using 3(2) central composite design and the OPT formulation located using overlay plot. The pharmacokinetic and in-vivo biodistribution of t-RVT NPs were investigated in rats, and various levels of in-vitro/in-vivo correlation (IVIVC) were established. KEY FINDINGS The OPT formulation (mean particle size: 180 nm) indicated marked improvement in drug release profile vis-à-vis pure drug and marketed formulation (MKT). Augmentation in the values of Ka (5.64-fold) and AUC0-24 (7.25-fold) indicated significant enhancement in the rate and extent of bioavailability by the optimized trans-resveratrol-loaded Eudragit RL 100 nanoparticles (OPT-t-RVT NPs) compared with pure drug. Level A of IVIVC was successfully established. OPT-t-RVT NPs showed 4.11-fold rose in the values of t-RVT concentrations in liver. In-situ single pass intestinal perfusion studies construed remarkable enhancement in the absorptivity and permeability parameters of OPT-t-RVT NPs. CONCLUSIONS The results, therefore, insight into the role of solubility enhancement and trounce enterohepatic recirculation for improving the oral bioavailability of t-RVT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trans-resveratrol (t-RVT) is a potent antioxidant. The drug suffers enterohepatic recirculation and extensive first-pass metabolism by CYP3A4 in liver, resulting in very low bioavailability (almost zero). OBJECTIVE The current studies entail a novel formulation approach to develop systematically optimized (OPT) nanoparticles (NPs) to enhance the oral bioavailability potential using poly (dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) of t-RVT and overcome enterohepatic recirculation. METHODS T-RVT-loaded PLGA NPs were prepared by nanoprecipitation method. Delineating the NP regions, the amounts of polymer and emulsifier were selected as the critical factors for systematically formulating the OPT NPs employing 3(2) central composite design. The pharmacokinetics, in vivo biodistribution and in situ single-pass intestinal perfusion (SPIP) studies of OPT formulation were investigated in male Wistar rats. RESULTS Augmentation in the values of Ka (7.17-fold) and AUC0 - ∞ (10.6-fold) indicated significant enhancement in the rate and extent of bioavailability by the OPT formulation compared to pure drug and marketed product. OPT formulation showed a 2.78-fold rise in the values of t-RVT concentrations in liver. In situ SPIP studies ascribed the significant enhancement in absorptivity and permeability parameters of OPT NPs to transport through the Peyer's patches. Successful establishment of in vitro/in vivo correlation substantiated the judicious choice of the in vitro dissolution milieu for simulating the in vivo conditions. CONCLUSION The studies, therefore, could provide another useful tool for successful development of t-RVT NPs and an in vivo approach to designate nanoparticulate system of t-RVT with distinctly improved bioavailability and to overcome enterohepatic recirculation.

Abstract
A rapid reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed for the determination of trans-resveratrol (t-RVT) in PLGA nanoparticle formulation. A new formulation of t-RVT loaded PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) with potential stealth properties was prepared by nanoprecipitation method in our laboratory. The desired chromatographic separation was achieved on a Phenomenex C18 column under isocratic conditions using UV detection at 306 nm. The optimized mobile phase consisted of a mixture of methanol: 10 mM potassium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (pH 6.8): acetonitrile (63 : 30 : 7, v/v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The linear regression analysis for the calibration curves showed a good linear correlation over the concentration range of 0.025–2.0 μg/ml, with determination coefficients, R2, exceeding 0.9997. The method was shown to be specific, precise at the intraday and interday levels, as reflected by the relative standard deviation (RSD) values, lower than 5.0%, and accurate with bias not exceeding 15% and percentage recovery was found to be in the range between 94.5 and 101.2. The limits of detection and quantification were 0.002 and 0.007 μg/ml, respectively. The method was successfully applied for the determination of t-RVT encapsulation efficiency.
