Ceftazidime and Usnic Acid Encapsulated in Chitosan-Coated Liposomes for Oral Administration against Colorectal Cancer-Inducing Escherichia coli. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2024; 17:802. [PMID: 38931469 PMCID: PMC11206294 DOI: 10.3390/ph17060802] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Escherichia coli has been associated with the induction of colorectal cancer (CRC). Thus, combined therapy incorporating usnic acid (UA) and antibiotics such as ceftazidime (CAZ), co-encapsulated in liposomes, could be an alternative. Coating the liposomes with chitosan (Chi) could facilitate the oral administration of this nanocarrier. Liposomes were prepared using the lipid film hydration method, followed by sonication and chitosan coating via the drip technique. Characterization included particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, pH, encapsulation efficiency, and physicochemical analyses. The minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration were determined against E. coli ATCC 25922, NCTC 13846, and H10407 using the microdilution method. Antibiofilm assays were conducted using the crystal violet method. The liposomes exhibited sizes ranging from 116.5 ± 5.3 to 240.3 ± 3.5 nm and zeta potentials between +16.4 ± 0.6 and +28 ± 0.8 mV. The encapsulation efficiencies were 51.5 ± 0.2% for CAZ and 99.94 ± 0.1% for UA. Lipo-CAZ-Chi and Lipo-UA-Chi exhibited antibacterial activity, inhibited biofilm formation, and preformed biofilms of E. coli. The Lipo-CAZ-UA-Chi and Lipo-CAZ-Chi + Lipo-UA-Chi formulations showed enhanced activities, potentially due to co-encapsulation or combination effects. These findings suggest potential for in vivo oral administration in future antibacterial and antibiofilm therapies against CRC-inducing bacteria.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB), one of the deadliest contagious diseases, is a major concern worldwide. Long-term treatment, a high pill burden, limited compliance, and strict administration schedules are all variables that contribute to the development of MDR and XDR tuberculosis patients. The rise of multidrug-resistant strains and a scarcity of anti-TB medications pose a threat to TB control in the future. As a result, a strong and effective system is required to overcome technological limitations and improve the efficacy of therapeutic medications, which is still a huge problem for pharmacological technology. Nanotechnology offers an interesting opportunity for accurate identification of mycobacterial strains and improved medication treatment possibilities for tuberculosis. Nano medicine in tuberculosis is an emerging research field that provides the possibility of efficient medication delivery using nanoparticles and a decrease in drug dosages and adverse effects to boost patient compliance with therapy and recovery. Due to their fascinating characteristics, this strategy is useful in overcoming the abnormalities associated with traditional therapy and leads to some optimization of the therapeutic impact. It also decreases the dosing frequency and eliminates the problem of low compliance. To develop modern diagnosis techniques, upgraded treatment, and possible prevention of tuberculosis, the nanoparticle-based tests have demonstrated considerable advances. The literature search was conducted using Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Elsevier databases only. This article examines the possibility of employing nanotechnology for TB diagnosis, nanotechnology-based medicine delivery systems, and prevention for the successful elimination of TB illnesses.

Abstract
Acute liver damage (ALD) can cause biochemical and pathological changes, which can lead to major complications and even death. The goal of the study was to examine the therapeutic efficacy of liposomes of Bergenia ciliata extract against thioacetamide-induced liver damage in rats. Liposomal batches of B. ciliata extract were prepared by altering the kind and amount of phospholipids and characterized through various physiochemical properties such as laser diffraction, TEM, encapsulation efficiency, stability and in-vitro release studies. In-vivo hepatoprotective studies were performed on TAA-induced acute hepatic damage model. Further, in-silico studies of bergenin against the three hepatic damage markers viz. TGF-β1, TNF-α and interleukin-6 were also performed. Laser diffraction and TEM showed that most stable liposome batch of B. ciliata extract were in the range of 678-1170 nm with encapsulation efficiency of 84.3±3.5. Extract was found to be rapidly dissociated from B. ciliata liposomes in HCl than PBS, according to in-vitro release data. In-vivo data revealed a significant decline in LFT indicators, amelioration of pathological changes and high bergenin bioavailability in the liposomal group. Protective activity of bergenin against ALD targets like TGF-β1, TNF-α and interleukin-6 was anticipated via molecular docking research. As a result, the current findings of the study indicate that B. ciliata liposomes and bergenin have promising ameliorative potential in the management of ALD.

Abstract
Abstract:
Food derived Antihypertensive peptides is considered as a natural supplement for controlling the hypertension. Food protein not only serve as a macronutrient but also act as raw material for biosynthesis of physiologically active peptides. Food sources like milk and milk products, animal protein such as meat, chicken, fish, eggs and plant derived proteins from soy, rice, wheat, mushroom, pumpkins contain high amount of antihypertensive peptides. The food derived antihypertensive peptides has ability to supress the action of rennin and Angiotesin converting enzyme (ACE) which is mainly involved in regulation of blood pressure by RAS. The biosynthesis of endothelial nitric oxide synthase is also improved by ACE inhibitory peptides which increase the production of nitric oxide in vascular walls and encourage vasodilation. Interaction between the angiotensin II and its receptor is also inhibited by the peptides which help to reduce hypertension. This review will explore the novel sources and applications of food derived peptides for the management of hypertension.

Abstract
The surface characteristics and emulsifying properties of whey proteins (WP) after complexation with nanoliposomes (NL) were investigated. WP surface hydrophobicity enhanced after complexation with NL, and it indicated the exposure increase of WP hydrophobic groups. WPNL interfacial tension significantly decreased compared with that of WP. The interfacial protein content of WPNL-stabilized emulsions was slightly different from that of WP-stabilized emulsions. WP emulsifying properties were significantly improved after complexation with NL. The mean sizes and polydispersity indexes of WPNL-stabilized emulsion droplets were smaller than those of WP-stabilized emulsion droplets. The absolute zeta-potential values of WPNL-stabilized emulsions were greater than those of WP-stabilized emulsions. Electrostatic repulsion played a vital role in WPNL-stabilized emulsion stability. Moreover, surface and emulsifying properties of WPNL were changed by exterior factor-induced alteration of protein advanced structures. The emulsifying properties of WP after complexation with NL were improved due to the modification of WP surface characteristics.

Abstract
This study aimed to encapsulate walnut peptides with different molecular weights (crude peptides, 5-10 kDa and < 5 kDa) within nanoliposomes. The peptides with molecular weight (MW) of 5-10 kDa (F2) was chosen as a representative sample to indicate the formation mechanism of nanoliposomes using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The storage and simulated digestion experiment were carried out to evaluate the protective effect of nanoliposomes loading walnut peptides. Our results indicated that the amino acid composition was affected by peptide MW, and F2 exhibited the highest content of hydrophobic amino acids content. The MW of peptides also affected the distribution of the peptide of nanoliposomes, resulting in changes in particle size, ζ-potential, and encapsulation efficiency. The SEM exhibited that a high concentration of nanoliposomes might result in phospholipid fusion and larger particle diameters. The TEM showed individual nanoliposomes had spherical, smooth and full vesicle structures. The nanoliposomes could improve the stability of walnut peptides during storage. The maximum peptides retention after in vitro digestion was 61.6%, indicating a better sustained release in gastric digestion. The present study suggested that nanoliposomes can offer adequate protection to the walnut peptides during storage and digestion.

Abstract
The antimicrobial drugs currently used for the management of tuberculosis (TB) exhibit poor bioavailability that necessitates prolonged treatment regimens and high dosing frequency to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes. In addition, these agents cause severe adverse effects, as well as having detrimental interactions with other drugs used in the treatment of comorbid conditions such as HIV/AIDS. The challenges associated with the current TB regimens contribute to low levels of patient adherence and, consequently, the development of multidrug-resistant TB strains. This has led to the urgent need to develop newer drug delivery systems to improve the treatment of TB. Targeted drug delivery systems provide higher drug concentrations at the infection site, thus leading to reduced incidences of adverse effects. Lipid-based nanocarriers have proven to be effective in improving the solubility and bioavailability of antimicrobials whilst decreasing the incidence of adverse effects through targeted delivery. The potential application of lipid-based carriers such as liposomes, niosomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructured lipid carriers, nano and microemulsions, and self-emulsifying drug delivery systems for the treatment of TB is reviewed herein. The composition of the investigated lipid-based carriers, their characteristics, and their influence on bioavailability, toxicity, and sustained drug delivery are also discussed. Overall, lipid-based systems have shown great promise in anti-TB drug delivery applications. The summary of the reviewed data encourages future efforts to boost the translational development of lipid-based nanocarriers to improve TB therapy.

Human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) has been known to have excellent wound-healing activity. However, direct application to the wound area can lead to low hEGF bioavailability due to protease enzymes or endocytosis. The use of liposomes as coatings and carriers can protect hEGF from degradation by enzymes, chemical reactions, and immune reactions. Sustained release using a matrix polymer can also keep the levels of hEGF in line with the treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a film-forming spray of water-soluble chitosan (FFSWSC) containing hEGF-liposomes as a potential wound dressing. The hEGF-liposomes were prepared using the hydration film method, and the preparation of the FFSWSC was achieved by the ionic gelation method. The hydration film method produced hEGF-liposomes that were round and spread with a Z-average of 219.3 nm and encapsulation efficiency of 99.87%, whereas the film-forming solution, which provided good sprayability, had a formula containing 2% WSC and 3% propylene glycol with a viscosity, spray angle, droplet size, spray weight, and occlusion factor of 21.94 ± 0.05 mPa.s, 73.03 ± 1.28°, 54.25 ± 13.33 µm, 0.14 ± 0.00 g, and 14.57 ± 3.41%, respectively. The pH, viscosity, and particle size of the FFSWSC containing hEGF-liposomes were stable during storage for a month in a climatic chamber (40 ± 2 °C, RH 75 ± 5%). A wound healing activity test on mice revealed that hEGF-liposomes in FFSWSC accelerated wound closure significantly, with a complete wound closure on day 6. Based on the findings, we concluded that FFSWSC containing hEGF-liposomes has the potential to be used as a wound dressing.

Abstract
The attention towards active films has increased due to consumer demand for high-quality foods without chemical additives. Active biopolymer-based films have shown great potential for active films by impacting food safety, acting as the carriers of various natural antioxidant and antimicrobial compounds, and decreasing environmental pollution from petrol-derived packaging materials. However, there is a wide range of challenges concerning the different characteristics of biopolymers and plasticizers, often hygroscopic/hydrophilic, compared to numerous lipophilic bioactive compounds. Therefore, recent studies have focused on applying oil-in-water emulsion-based systems to enhance the lipophilic bioactive compounds' dispersibility into the film matrix, improving their performance. It is worth emphasizing that resulting complex systems give rise to new challenges such as (i) dispersion technology of the bioactive compounds with minimum adverse effects on its bioactivities, (ii) interactions between different components of the active films, giving rise to new physicochemical properties, and (iii) the change of the diffusion properties of bioactive compounds into the active films, resulting in different release properties. These challenges are profound and critically discussed in this review, as well as the encapsulation techniques employed in preparing emulsions loaded with lipophilic bioactive compounds for the active film development. An outlook of future directions in the research, development, and application of these active films are given. The attention towards active films has increased due to consumer demand for high-quality foods without chemical additives.![]()

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the interaction of primaquine (PQ), chloroquine (CQ), and liposomes to support the design of optimal liposomal delivery for hepatic stage malaria infectious disease. The liposomes were composed of hydrogenated soybean phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol, and distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-(methoxy[polyethyleneglycol]-2000), prepared by thin film method, then evaluated for physicochemical and spectrospic characteristics. The calcein release was further evaluated to determine the effect of drug co-loading on liposomal membrane integrity. The results showed that loading PQ and CQ into liposomes produced changes in the infrared spectra of the diester phosphate and carbonyl ester located in the polar part of the phospholipid, in addition to the alkyl group (CH2) in the nonpolar portion. Moreover, the thermogram revealed the loss of the endothermic peak of liposomes dually loaded with PQ and CQ at 186.6 °C, which is identical to that of the phospholipid. However, no crystallinity changes were detected through powder X-ray diffraction analysis. Moreover, PQ, with either single or dual loading, produced the higher calcein release profiles from the liposomes than that of CQ. The dual loading of PQ and CQ tends to interact with the polar head group of the phosphatidylcholine bilayer membrane resulted in an increase in water permeability of the liposomes.

Abstract
Liposomes play a significant role in encapsulation of various bioactive compounds (BACs), including functional food ingredients to improve the stability of core. This technology can be used for promoting an effective application in functional food and nutraceuticals. Incorporation of traditional and emerging methods for the developments of liposome for loading BACs resulted in viable and stable liposome formulations for industrial applications. Thus, the advance technologies such as supercritical fluidic methods, microfluidization, ultrasonication with traditional methods are revisited. Liposomes loaded with plant and animal BACs have been introduced for functional food and nutraceutical applications. In general, application of liposome systems improves stability, delivery, and bioavailability of BACs in functional food systems and nutraceuticals. This review covers the current techniques and methodologies developed and practiced in liposomal preparation and application in functional foods.

Abstract
Nanoparticles are interesting area of research developed for several diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Tamarind flower extract is rich in Xyloglucan, a starch like polysaccharide which promotes proliferation and various application areas like drug-delivery technology. In recent years researchers are evaluating nanoliposome using in vitro and in vivo studies to discover their biomedical applications. Considering the importance and feasibility of nanoliposome, the present study is focused on synthesis of liposomes via biological method. The biological molecules of Tamarindus indica flower were used for the synthesis of nanoliposome. The synthesized Tamarindus indica flower extract lipid nanoparticles (TifeLiNPs) loaded with xyloglucans were characterized and evaluated for therapeutic applications (antibacterial, antioxidant, antidiabetic, anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities) under in vitro condition. UV-Vis spectral analysis revealed the emission of peak at 232 nm. Further, the chemical characterization using FTIR revealed the presence of components in the functional group. EDX analysis exhibited the presence of O, Na, P and Cl, while DLS confirmed bilayer formation of xyloglucan and liposomes with uniform size (70-80 nm) and spherical shape. The Physicochemical characterization of tamarind flower extract for its chemical composition revealed the presence of carbohydrates, alkaloids, terpenoids, glycosides, saponins, tannins and flavonoids in confirmatory test. Presence of carbohydrate polymers such as rhamnose, arabinose, galactose, glucose and xylose revealed using high performance anion exchange (HPAE) chromatography under basic conditions on an ion chromatographic system were measured using Pulsed Amperometric Detection (PAD). The synthesized nanoliposome evaluated against Gram negative and Gram positive bacteria showed potential antibacterial activity. TifeLiNPs demonstrated significant in vitro antioxidant potential, antidiabetic, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activity. Overall, the present study exhibited the potential application of TifeLiNPs for biomedical purposes.

Abstract
Food protein-derived bioactive peptides are recognized as valuable ingredients of functional foods and/or nutraceuticals to promote health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. However, although peptides have been demonstrated to exert multiple benefits by biochemical assays, cell culture, and animal models, the ability to translate the new findings into practical or commercial uses remains delayed. This fact is mainly due to the lack of correlation of in vitro findings with in vivo functions of peptides because of their low bioavailability. Once ingested, peptides need to resist the action of digestive enzymes during their transit through the gastrointestinal tract and cross the intestinal epithelial barrier to reach the target organs in an intact and active form to exert their health-promoting properties. Thus, for a better understanding of the in vivo physiological effects of food bioactive peptides, extensive research studies on their gastrointestinal stability and transport are needed. This review summarizes the most current evidence on those factors affecting the digestive and absorptive processes of food bioactive peptides, the recently designed models mimicking the gastrointestinal environment, as well as the novel strategies developed and currently applied to enhance the absorption and bioavailability of peptides.

Abstract
The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract has been bestowed with the most difficult task of protecting the underlying biological compartments from the resident commensal flora and the potential pathogens in transit through the GI tract. It has a unique environment in which several defence tactics are at play while maintaining homeostasis and health. The GI tract shows myriad number of environmental extremes, which includes pH variations, anaerobic conditions, nutrient limitations, elevated osmolarity etc., which puts a check to colonization and growth of nonfriendly microbial strains. The GI tract acts as a highly selective barrier/platform for ingested food and is the primary playground for balance between the resident and uninvited organisms. This review focuses on antimicrobial defense mechanisms of different sections of human GI tract. In addition, the protective mechanisms used by microbes to combat the human GI defence systems are also discussed. The ability to survive this innate defence mechanism determines the capability of probiotic or pathogen strains to confer health benefits or induce clinical events respectively.

Abstract
In this study, tyrosol - a phenolic antioxidant that present in olive oil and olive mill wastes - was embedded in ethylcellulose microparticles by double emulsion solvent evaporation technique. The effect of loading content (5 % w/w and 10 % w/w) on the release behavior and bioaccessibility of tyrosol was evaluated. The polymer endowed efficient protection to tyrosol during the in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of loaded microparticles as the maximum release of tyrosol was observed during the simulated intestinal digestion, and the releases were kept outstanding low during the simulated salivary and gastric digestions. The bioaccessibility of tyrosol was improved when encapsulated. The best-fitting models of the release profiles of tyrosol were the first, and the zero-order models for formulations considering a loading of 5% w/w and 10 % w/w, respectively. The results of this study bring new perspectives for the design of loaded microparticles that will be further submitted to gastrointestinal digestion.

Abstract
The phase behaviors of systems containing saturated phosphatidylcholine (PC) and plant steroids can be important for designing new alternative delivery methods. In our previous studies, we found that even a small amount of β-sitosteryl sulfate (PSO4) significantly affects the phase behavior, hydration properties, and liposomal properties of pure saturated phosphatidylcholines [Kafle, A.; Colloids Surf., B 2018, 161, 59-66; Kafle, A.; J. Oleo Sci. 2018, 67 (12), 1511-1519]. In the current paper, we are reporting the phase behavior of a more complex system consisting of hydrogenated soy lecithin (HLC), which is useful as a carrier in drug delivery systems or in cosmetics, and PSO4. HLC, which is composed of phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidic acid (PA), and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), demonstrated a versatile phase behavior. The PC component of HLC was found to separate from the PE and PA components as a result of nonideal mixing. At room temperature, these two domains represented two distinct gel phases denoted Lβ1 and Lβ2. The Lβ1 phase selectively underwent transition into the liquid crystalline phase (Lα) at a lower temperature than Lβ2. Upon addition of PSO4, at room temperature, the PC fraction gradually converted into the liquid-ordered (Lo) phase, while the (PE + PA) fraction remained unaffected. When heated above 60 °C, the whole material converted into the liquid crystalline phase. The observed fluidizing effect of PSO4 on HLC can find applications in preparing vehicles for moisture or drugs in cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations.

Abstract
The potential use of liposomes as carriers for food active ingredients can be limited by their physical and chemical instabilities in aqueous dispersions, especially for long-term storage. Lyophilization, a process commonly used in the food industry, can also be applied to stabilize and preserve liposomes and to extend their shelf-life. In this work, liposomes with potential use for designing functional foods were prepared with soy phospholipids and rutin. Homogenization and ultrasound were used for particle size reduction. Liposomal stability was evaluated by Dynamic Light Scattering, microscopy and rheological properties. Spherical and unilamellar liposomes were obtained in this work. Zeta potential (ξ = values were around -40 mV), which indicates a great suspension stability even for more than 30 days of storage. Rutin exerted a protective effect by both preventing damage to the liposome bilayer and maintaining the spherical structure after 56 days of storage. Lyophilization caused an increase in the size of the vesicles, reaching sizes around 419 nm and aggregation of vesicles with probably structural damage after 21 storage days. However, it helped to keep the rutin encapsulated (81.9%) for longer time, when compared to refrigerated liposomes. Rheological measurements showed, in general, that the power law model fitted most of the experimental results and dynamic rheological tests showed a sol-gel phase transition between 35 and 45 °C. Lyophilization caused a significant change in all evaluated rheological parameters. For the in vitro release tests, the liposomal bilayer acted as a barrier for the rutin release to the food simulating medium; therefore, the release rate of the antioxidant from the rutin encapsulated liposome was slow compared to the free rutin release rate.

[PMID: 31724746 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.14853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2019] [Revised: 09/04/2019] [Accepted: 09/30/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Characteristics of liposomal encapsulated ethanolic coconut husk extract (LE-ECHE) prepared using two levels of lipid phase (LP) containing soybean phosphatidylcholine/cholesterol mixture of 4:1 mol ratio (60 and 80 µmol/mL) and two ECHE concentrations (1% and 2%) were investigated. Poly-dispersity index, zeta-potential, and particle size of LE-ECHE samples were 0.22% to 0.28%, -70.4 to -53.63 mV, and 232 to 697.65 nm, respectively. Encapsulation efficiency of all samples was 75.25% to 90.11%. LE-ECHE prepared with LP content of 60 µmol/mL and 1% ECHE (LP60-EC1) was milky, whereas UN-EC1 (un-encapsulated ECHE) was brownish in color. ECHE retained its antioxidant activity even after entrapment in liposome, although higher activity was recorded for UN-EC1. Encapsulation of ECHE in liposome enhanced antibacterial properties of ECHE. Hence, LP60-EC1 showed promising potential as a delivery based system for lowering dark color, a drawback associated with ECHE as well as improving the antibacterial properties of ECHE. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Ethanolic coconut husk extract (ECHE) contains polyphenols with diverse biological activities such as antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. However, there are limited applications of ECHE in food industries, mainly because of its distinctive dark brown color. A homogeneous and stable liposomal system was demonstrated to be an efficient delivery based system for ECHE. Remarkably, antimicrobial property of ECHE was enhanced with liposomal encapsulation, whereas antioxidant activities of ECHE were retained. Also, liposomal encapsulation was shown as the potential technique to mask the undesirable dark brown, a drawback associated with ECHE for wider application.

Abstract
The development of natural phospholipids for nanostructured drug delivery systems has attracted much attention in the past decades. Lecithin that was derived from naturally occurring in soybeans (SL) has introduced some auspicious accomplishments to the drug carrying aspect, like effectual encapsulation, controlled release, and successful delivery of the curative factors to intracellular regions in which they procure these properties from their flexible physicochemical and biophysical properties, such as large aqueous center and biocompatible lipid, self-assembly, tunable properties, and high loading capacity. Despite the almost perfect properties as a drug carrier, liposome is known to be quite quickly eliminated from the body systems. The surface modification of liposomes has been investigated in many studies to overcome this drawback. In this review, we intensively discussed the surface-modified liposomes that enhancing the targeting, cellular uptake, and therapeutic response. Moreover, the recent applications of soy lecithin-derived liposome, focusing on cancer treatment, brain targeting, and vaccinology, are also summarized.

Abstract
In this work novel magnetic cationic liposomal nanoformulations were synthesized for the encapsulation of a crystallographically defined ternary V(IV)-curcumin-bipyridine (VCur) complex with proven bioactivity, as potential anticancer agents. The liposomal vesicles were produced via the thin film hydration method employing N-[1-(2,3-dioleoyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium (DOTAP) and egg phosphatidylcholine lipids and were magnetized through the addition of citric acid surface-modified monodispersed magnetite colloidal magnetic nanoparticles. The obtained nanoformulations were evaluated for their structural and textural properties and shown to have exceptional stability and enhanced solubility in physiological media, demonstrated by the entrapment efficiency and loading capacity results and the in vitro release studies of their cargo. Furthermore, the generated liposomal formulations preserved the superparamagnetic behavior of the employed magnetic core maintaining the physicochemical and morphological requirements for targeted drug delivery applications. The novel nanomaterials were further biologically evaluated for their DNA interaction potential and were found to act as intercalators. The findings suggest that the positively charged magnetic liposomal nanoformulations can generate increased concentration of their cargo at the DNA site, offering a further dimension in the importance of cationic liposomes as nanocarriers of hydrophobic anticancer metal ion complexes for the development of new multifunctional pharmaceutical nanomaterials with enhanced bioavailability and targeted antitumor activity.

Abstract
Bromelain-generated biopeptides from stone fish protein exhibit strong inhibitory effect against ACE and can potentially serve as designer food (DF) with blood pressure lowering effect. Contextually, the DF refer to the biopeptides specifically produced to act as ACE-inhibitors other than their primary role in nutrition and can be used in the management of hypertension. However, the biopeptides are unstable under gastrointestinal tract (GIT) digestion and need to be stabilized for effective oral administration. In the present study, the stone fish biopeptides (SBs) were stabilized by their encapsulation in sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) cross-linked chitosan nanoparticles produced by ionotropic gelation method. The nanoparticles formulation was then optimized via Box-Behnken experimental design to achieve smaller particle size (162.70 nm) and high encapsulation efficiency (75.36%) under the optimum condition of SBs:Chitosan mass ratio (0.35), homogenization speed (8000 rpm) and homogenization time (30 min). The SBs-loaded nanoparticles were characterized for morphology by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), physicochemical stability and efficacy. The nanoparticles were then lyophilized and analyzed using Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results obtained indicated a sustained in vitro release and enhanced physicochemical stability of the SBs-loaded nanoparticles with smaller particle size and high encapsulation efficiency following long period of storage. Moreover, the efficacy study revealed improved inhibitory effect of the encapsulated SBs against ACE following simulated GIT digestion.

Abstract
A dual pH/redox responsive copper-glyglycine-prednisolone succinate-loaded nanoliposomal (NL) sludge was successfully synthesized and optimized using a Box-Behnken design of experiments. Preformulation design variables indicated that relative ratios of phospholipids, considerably influences NL size, thus altering the degree of drug loading in the formulation. In vitro evaluation further confirmed optimum release kinetics of the NL sludge, corresponding closely to ex vivo permeation studies, demonstrating effective transdermal delivery of prednisone succinate (PS) through a pig skin model, which closely resembles human skin anatomy. The pH/redox stimuli responsiveness of the NL sludge further demonstrated superior properties in vivo using a Sprague-Dawley rat model. The NL sludge displayed the greatest release of PS within 24 h of evaluation, falling within the acceptable therapeutic range of PS dose efficiency. In vivo results further displayed the greatest absorption of PS under inflammatory induced conditions, thus confirming the unique pH/redox responsive properties of the NL sludge. It was thus confirmed that the copper-glyglycine-prednisolone succinate-loaded NL sludge has significant potential for application in chronic inflammatory conditions such as tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS), designed to release an effective dose of corticosteroid, as a transdermal drug delivery formulation, for effective therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is a poverty related infectious disease that is rapidly giving rise to public health concerns. Lengthy drug administration and frequent adverse side-effects associated with TB treatment make anti-tubercular drugs (ATDs) good candidates for drug delivery studies. This work aimed to formulate and prepare liposomes as a cost-effective option for ATD delivery. Liposomes were prepared by film hydration using crude soybean lecithin (CL) and not pure phospholipids as in the normal practice. Cholesterol was also used (up to 25% mass ratio), and isoniazid (INH) was encapsulated as model drug using a freeze-thaw loading technique. Purified soybean lecithin (PL) was also used for comparative purposes, under the same conditions. INH-loaded liposomes were characterized for particle size, Zeta Potential (ZP), encapsulation efficiency (EE) and drug release. Physicochemical properties were investigated using thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared. INH-loaded CL-based liposomes showed high EE (79±2.45%). The average particle size (813.00±9.21nm) and ZP (-42.80±4.31mV) of this formulation are promising for the treatment of TB by pulmonary delivery. These findings suggest the possibility of encapsulating ATDs in liposomes made of crude soybean lecithin that is cheap and readily available.

Abstract
Encapsulation of peptides can be used to enhance their stability, delivery and bioavailability. This study focused on the effect of the molecular weight range of whey peptides on their encapsulation within soy lecithin-derived nanoliposomes. Peptide molecular weight did not have a major impact on encapsulation efficiency or liposome size. However, it influenced peptide distribution amongst the surface, core, and bilayer regions of the liposomes, as determined by electrical charge (ζ-potential) and FTIR analysis. The liposome ζ-potential depended on peptide molecular weight, suggesting that the peptide charged groups were in different locations relative to the liposome surfaces. FTIR analysis indicated that the least hydrophobic peptide fractions interacted more strongly with choline on the liposome surfaces. The results suggested that the peptides were unequally distributed within the liposomes, even at the same encapsulation efficiency. These findings are important for designing delivery systems for commercial production of encapsulated peptides with improved functional attributes.

Abstract
Sericin protein (SP) is widely used as a nutrient biomaterial for biomedical and cosmeceutical applications although it shows low stability to heat and light. To overcome these problems and add value to wastewater from the silk industry, sericin protein was recovered as sericin-loaded copolymer-liposomes (SP-PVA-LP), prepared through thin film hydration. The size and morphology of the liposomes were investigated using dynamic light scattering (DLS), and electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). The particle size, liposome surface morphology and encapsulation efficiency of SP were dependent on PVA concentration. The hydrodynamic size of the nanoparticles was between 200 and 400nm, with the degree of negative charge contingent on sericin loading. SEM and TEM images confirmed the mono-dispersity, and spherical nature of the particles, with FTIR measurements confirming the presence of surface bound PVA. Exposure of liposomes to 500ppm sericin highlighted a dependence of encapsulation efficiency on PVA content; 2% surface PVA proved the optimal level for sericin loading. Cytotoxicity and viability assays revealed that SP-loaded surface modified liposomes promote cellular attachment and proliferation of human skin fibroblasts without adverse toxic effects. Surface modified copolymer liposomes show high performance in maintaining structural stability, and promoting enhancements in the solubility and bio-viability of sericin. Taken together, these biocompatible constructs allow for effective controlled release, augmenting sericin activity and resulting in effective drug delivery systems.

Mavuso S, Choonara YE, Marimuthu T, Kumar P, du Toit LC, Kondiah PPD, Pillay V. A dual pH/Redox responsive copper-ligand nanoliposome bioactive complex for the treatment of chronic inflammation. Int J Pharm 2016; 509:348-359. [PMID: 27269194 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2016.05.069] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2016] [Revised: 05/25/2016] [Accepted: 05/29/2016] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
A novel dual pH/redox-responsive polymeric nanoliposome system (NLs) loaded with a copper-liganded bioactive complex was prepared and designed as a controlled delivery system for the management of inflammation. The NLs were synthesised after preparation of the copper-glyglycine-prednisolone succinate] ([(Cu(glygly)(PS)]) complex, and the dual pH/redox responsive biopolymer respectively. The methodology undertaken for the development of the drug delivery system involved coordination of the bioactive to Copper (II), preparation of dual pH/redox responsive biopolymer, and the synthesis of dual pH/redox nanoliposomes. Characterisations of the prepared copper-liganded bioactive [Copper-glyglycine-prednisolone succinate] ([(Cu(glygly)(PS)]) complex, dual pH/redox responsive biopolymer (Eudragit E100-cystamine) and [(Cu(glygly)(PS)]-loaded NLs were carried out using spectroscopic and physicochemical techniques. Results indicated a high inflammatory/oxidant inhibitory activity of [Cu(glygly)(PS)] in comparison to the free PS drug. The [Cu(glygly)(PS)] complex exhibited a significant free radical-scavenging activity (60.1±1.2%) and lipoxygenase (LOX-5) inhibitory activity (36.6±1.3%) in comparison to PS which resulted in activity of 4.4±1.4% and inhibition of 6.1±2.6% respectively. The [Cu(glygly)(PS)] loaded NLs demonstrated low release profiles of 22.9±5.4% in 6h at pH 7.4, in comparison to a significant accelerated release at pH 5 in a reducing environment of 75.9±3.7% over 6h duration. Results suggest that the novel copper-liganded bioactive delivery system with controlled drug release mechanism could serve as a potential drug delivery system candidate in the management of inflammation.
