Abstract
High porous particles with specific aerodynamic properties were processed by the spray freeze-drying (SFD) method. Comprehensive knowledge about all aspects of the SFD method is required for particle engineering of various pharmaceutical products with good flow properties. In this review, different types of the SFD method, the most frequently employed excipients, properties of particles prepared by this method, and most recent approaches concerning SFD are summarized. Generally, this technique can prepare spherical-shaped particles with a highly porous interior structure, responsible for the very low density of powders. Increasing the solubility of spray freeze-dried formulations achieves the desired efficacy. Also, due to the high efficiency of SFD, by determining the different features of this method and optimizing the process by model-based studies, desirable results for various inhaled products can be achieved and significant progress can be made in the field of pulmonary drug delivery.

Glyceric Prodrug of Ursodeoxycholic Acid (UDCA): Novozym 435-Catalyzed Synthesis of UDCA-Monoglyceride. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26195966. [PMID: 34641510 PMCID: PMC8513054 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26195966] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2021] [Revised: 09/27/2021] [Accepted: 09/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Bile acids (BAs) are a family of steroids synthesized from cholesterol in the liver. Among bile acids, ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is the drug of choice for treating primary biliary cirrhosis and dissolving cholesterol gallstones. The clinical effectiveness of UDCA includes its choleretic activity, the capability to inhibit hydrophobic bile acid absorption by the intestine under cholestatic conditions, reducing cholangiocyte injury, stimulation of impaired biliary output, and inhibition of hepatocyte apoptosis. Despite its clinical effectiveness, UDCA is poorly soluble in the gastro-duodeno-jejunal contents, and pharmacological doses of UDCA are not readily soluble in the stomach and intestine, resulting in incomplete absorption. Indeed, the solubility of 20 mg/L greatly limits the bioavailability of UDCA. Since the bioavailability of drug products plays a critical role in the design of oral administration dosages, we investigated the enzymatic esterification of UDCA as a strategy of hydrophilization. Therefore, we decided to enzymatically synthesize a glyceric ester of UDCA bile acid to produce a more water-soluble molecule. The esterification reactions between UDCA and glycerol were performed with an immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica (Novozym 435) in solvent-free and solvent-assisted systems. The characterization of the UDCA-monoglyceride, enzymatically synthesized, has been performed by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, COSY, HSQC, HMBC, IR, and MS spectroscopy.

Abstract
Purpose Brucellosis as a worldwide zoonotic illness affect domestic animals and humans doesn't have any vaccine for the prevention of infection in humans yet. The aim of this study was to evaluate the specific immune response following the administration of glycine nanoparticles as adjuvant and delivery system of a chimeric antigen contained trigger factor, Omp31, and Bp26 in murine model. Materials and Methods The chimeric antigen of Brucella was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli (E. coli) BL21 (DE3). Purification and characterization of recombinant protein was conducted through Ni-NTA (nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid) agarose, SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis), and Western blot. Nanoparticle characteristics including morphology, particle size distribution, zeta potential, protein retention rate, and release rate were measured in vitro. Subsequently, nanoparticle contained antigen was administered to mice and blood sample was taken to measured the antibody level. Results The protein retention in the nanoparticles was successfully done and the nanoparticle characteristics were appropriate. The average size of glycine particles containing antigen was about 174 nm, and the absorption of protein was approximately 61.27% of the initial value, with a release rate of approximately 70% after 8 hours. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay result proved that the immunized sera of mice which were administered with nano-formula contains high levels of antibodies (immunoglobulin G) against recombinant chimeric antigen and also a high level of mucosal antibody (immunoglobulin A) in the oral group, which showed a desirable immunity against Brucella. Conclusion The results showed that chimeric antigen-loaded glycine nanoparticles can act as a vaccine candidate for inducing the cellular and humoral immune response against brucellosis.

Abstract
The pulmonary route has long been used for drug administration for both local and systemic treatment. It possesses several advantages, which can be categorized into physiological, i.e., large surface area, thin epithelial membrane, highly vascularized, limited enzymatic activity, and patient convenience, i.e., non-invasive, self-administration over oral and systemic routes of drug administration. However, the formulation of dry powder for pulmonary delivery is often challenging due to restrictions on aerodynamic size and the lung’s lower tolerance capacity in comparison with an oral route of drug administration. Various physicochemical properties of dry powder play a major role in the aerosolization, deposition, and clearance along the respiratory tract. To prepare suitable particles with optimal physicochemical properties for inhalation, various manufacturing methods have been established. The most frequently used industrial methods are milling and spray-drying, while several other alternative methods such as spray-freeze-drying, supercritical fluid, non-wetting templates, inkjet-printing, thin-film freezing, and hot-melt extrusion methods are also utilized. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the respiratory tract structure, particle deposition patterns, and possible drug-clearance mechanisms from the lungs. This review also includes the physicochemical properties of dry powder, various techniques used for the preparation of dry powders, and factors affecting the clinical efficacy, as well as various challenges that need to be addressed in the future.

Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy is one of the worst complications of diabetes and it is treated by invasive method. We prepared a surface modified poly (D, L-lactide-co-glycolide) i.e. PLGA nanoparticles for delivery of pioglitazone-a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonist to posterior segment of the eye by topical administration. The present study investigated two grades of PLGA viz. 75:25 and 50:50. Surface modification was performed using polysorbate 80. Nanoparticles were prepared by single emulsion solvent evaporation method and optimized by using 3-factor 3-level Box-Behnken statistical design. Mean particle size, PDI and entrapment efficiency for optimized batch of PLGA 75:25 was found to be 163.23 nm, 0.286 and 91%, whereas; for PLGA 50:50 it was 171.7 nm, 0.280 and 93% respectively. DSC confirms the molecular dispersion of drug in polymer. In vitro release study showed biphasic drug release pattern with 58.48 ± 1.38% and 74.17 ± 1.38% cumulative drug release by PLGA 75:25 and 50:50 nanoparticles at the end of 10h. The release profile of pioglitazone from nanoparticles appeared to fit best with Higuchi model. In vivo study on rat showed dose dependent reduction in vascular endothelial growth factor concentration in vitreous fluid. The study reveals significance of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma in management of diabetic retinopathy.

Abstract
PURPOSE An improved, simple apparatus was developed to easily and uniformly disperse dry powders onto an air-liquid interfaced cultured cell layer. We investigated drug permeation in cell cultures with access to the air-liquid interface (ALI) following deposition of a dry powder using the apparatus. METHOD The improved apparatus for dispersing the powders was assembled. Dry powders containing model drugs were prepared and dispersed onto the cell layer with ALI. After the dispersion, the permeation of each model drug was measured and compared with other samples (solutions with the same compositions). RESULTS The improved apparatus could with ease uniformly disperse 40% of the loading dose onto the cell layer with ALI. Dry powders showed higher drug permeability compared to the samples. without cytotoxicity or an effect on tight junctions. The high drug permeability of dry powders was independent of the molecular weight of model drugs. The contribution of active transport was small, while an increase in passive drug transport via trans- and paracellular routes was observed. CONCLUSIONS Inhaled dry powder formulations achieved higher drug permeability than their solution formulations in ALI. A high local concentration of drugs on the cell layer, caused by direct attachment of the inhaled dry powder, contributed to increased drug permeability via both trans- and paracellular routes.

Abstract
Vanillin flavour is highly volatile in nature and due to that application in food incorporation is limited; hence microencapsulation of vanillin is an ideal technique to increase its stability and functionality. In this study, vanillin was microencapsulated for the first time by non-thermal spray-freeze-drying (SFD) technique and its stability was compared with other conventional techniques such as spray drying (SD) and freeze-drying (FD). Different wall materials like β-cyclodextrin (β-cyd), whey protein isolate (WPI) and combinations of these wall materials (β-cyd + WPI) were used to encapsulate vanillin. SFD microencapsulated vanillin with WPI showed spherical shape with numerous fine pores on the surface, which in turn exhibited good rehydration ability. On the other hand, SD powder depicted spherical shape without pores and FD encapsulated powder yielded larger particle sizes with flaky structure. FTIR analysis confirmed that there was no interaction between vanillin and wall materials. Moreover, spray-freeze-dried vanillin + WPI sample exhibited better thermal stability than spray dried and freeze-dried microencapsulated samples.

Abstract
Dry eye disease is a common disease of the tear film caused by decreased tear production or increased evaporation. The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate poly (dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles for CsA (CsA) ophthalmic delivery, for the treatment of dry eye disease. Topical CsA is currently the only and safe pharmacologic treatment of severe dry eye symptoms. Nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by W/O solvent evaporation technique followed by probe sonicator and characterized for various properties such as particle size, entrapment efficiency, zeta potential,in vitrodrug release,in vitropermeation studies by Franz diffusion cells, XRD, DSC, SEM, and stability studies. The developed nanosuspension showed a mean particle size in the range from 128 to 253.50 nm before freeze drying and after freeze drying 145.60 to 260.0 nm. The drug entrapment efficiency was from 58.35 to 95.69% and production yield was found between52.29±2.4and85.30±2.1% in all preparations. The zeta potential of the Eudragit RL containing nanoparticles was positive, that is, 20.3 mV to 34.5 mV. The NPs formulations exhibited a biphasic drug release with initial burst followed by a very slow drug release and total cumulative release up to 24 h ranged from 69.83 to 91.92%. Kinetically, the release profiles of CsA from NPs appeared to fit best with the Higuchi model. The change of surface characteristics of NPs represents a useful approach for improvement of ocular retention and drug availability.

Abstract
Anionic or non-ionic surfactants have been introduced in agarose-based hydrogels aiming to tailor the release of drugs with different solubility. The release of a hydrophilic model drug, Theophylline, shows the predictable release enhancement that varies depending on the surfactant. However, when the hydrophobic Tolbutamide is considered, an unexpected retarded release is observed. This effect can be explained not only considering the interactions established between the drug loaded micelles and agarose but also to the alteration of the freeze-dried hydrogels microstructure. It has been observed that the modification of the porosity percentage as well as the pore size distribution during the lyophilization plays a critical role in the different phenomena that take place as soon as desiccated hydrogel is rehydrated. The possibility of tailoring the pore architecture as a function of the surfactant nature and percentage can be applied from drug control release to the widespread and growing applications of materials based on hydrogel matrices.

Abstract
Nanosizing is a non-specific approach to improve the oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. The decreased particle size of these compounds results in an increase in surface area. The outcome is an increased rate of dissolution, which can lead to a better oral absorption. Standard approaches are bottom-up and top-down techniques. Combinative technologies are relatively new approaches, and they can be described as a combination of a bottom-up process followed by a top-down step. The work presented in this paper can be described as a combination of a non-aqueous freeze drying step (bottom-up), followed by wet ball milling or high pressure homogenization (top-down) to produce fine drug nanocrystals. The crystal habit of the model drug glibenclamide was modified by freeze drying from dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/tert-butanol (TBA) solvent mixtures using different ratios. The resulting drug powders were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) as well as by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was shown that the combinative approach can significantly improve the particle size reduction effectiveness of both top-down methods over conventional approaches. Drug lyophilization using DMSO:TBA in 25:75 and 10:90 v/v ratios resulted in a highly porous and breakable material. The milling time to achieve nanosuspensions was reduced from 24h with the jet-milled glibenclamide to only 1h with the modified starting material. The number of homogenization cycles was decreased from 20 with unmodified API to only 5 with the modified drug. The smallest particle size, achieved on modified samples, was 160nm by wet ball milling after 24h and 355nm by high pressure homogenization after 20 homogenization cycles at 1500bar.

Abstract
Different types of biomaterials, processed into different shapes, have been proposed as temporary support for cells in tissue engineering (TE) strategies. The manufacturing methods used in the production of particles in drug delivery strategies have been adapted for the development of microparticles in the fields of TE and regenerative medicine (RM). Microparticles have been applied as building blocks and matrices for the delivery of soluble factors, aiming for the construction of TE scaffolds, either by fusion giving rise to porous scaffolds or as injectable systems for in situ scaffold formation, avoiding complicated surgery procedures. More recently, organ printing strategies have been developed by the fusion of hydrogel particles with encapsulated cells, aiming the production of organs in in vitro conditions. Mesoscale self-assembly of hydrogel microblocks and the use of leachable particles in three-dimensional (3D) layer-by-layer (LbL) techniques have been suggested as well in recent works. Along with innovative applications, new perspectives are open for the use of these versatile structures, and different directions can still be followed to use all the potential that such systems can bring. This review focuses on polymeric microparticle processing techniques and overviews several examples and general concepts related to the use of these systems in TE and RE applications. The use of materials in the development of microparticles from research to clinical applications is also discussed.

Abstract
Encapsulation of therapeutic and diagnostic materials into polymeric particles is a means to protect and control or target the release of active substances such as drugs, vaccines, and genetic material. In terms of mucosal delivery, polymeric encapsulation can be used to promote absorption of the active substance, while particles can improve the half-life of drugs administered systemically. Spray drying is an attractive technology used to produce such microparticles, because it combines both the encapsulation and drying steps in a rapid, single-step operation. Even so, spray drying is not classically associated with processes used for drug and therapeutic material encapsulation, since elevated temperatures could potentially denature the active substance. However, a comprehensive review of the literature revealed a number of studies demonstrating that spray drying can be used to produce microparticulate formulations with labile therapeutics. Polymers commonly employed include synthetics such as methacrylic copolymers and polyesters, and natural materials including chitosan and alginate. Drugs and active substances are diverse and included antibiotics, anti-inflammatory agents, and chemotherapeutics. Regarding the delivery of spray-dried particles, the pulmonary, oral, colonic, and nasal mucosal routes are often investigated because they offer a convenient means of administration, which promotes physician and patient compliance. In addition, spray drying has been widely used to produce polymeric microparticles for systemic delivery in order to control the delivery of drugs, vaccines, or genetic material that may exhibit poor pharmacokinetic profiles or pose toxicity concerns. This review presents a brief introduction to the technology of spray drying and outlines the delivery routes and the applications of spray-dried polymeric microparticles.

Abstract
Microcrystals of megestrol acetate (MA), a poorly water-soluble drug, were successfully prepared using an antisolvent precipitation technique for improving the dissolution rate. The effective hydrophilic polymers and surfactants used were screened for their abilities to produce smaller particle sizes. Raw micronized MA and processed MA microcrystals were ranked by the Student-Newman-Keuls test in order of increasing particle size and SPAN values as follows: processed MA microcrystals in the presence of polymer and surfactant (mean diameter 1048nm)<processed MA microcrystals in the presence of polymer (1654nm)<processed MA microcrystals in the absence of polymer and surfactant (3491nm)<raw micronized MA (4352nm). The order of BET surface area was reversely ranked. Processed MA microcrystals in the presence of polymer and surfactant slightly decreased crystallinity and altered crystal habit and preferred orientation without change in polymorph. In addition, the dissolution properties of the processed MA microcrystals in the presence of polymer and surfactant were significantly enhanced as compared to that of the raw micronized MA. This effect is mainly due to a reduction in particle size resulting in an increased surface area. Therefore, it was concluded that the antisolvent precipitation technique in mild conditions could be a simple and useful technique to prepare poorly water-soluble drug particles with reduction in particle size, a narrow particle size distribution and enhanced dissolution properties.
