Eur J Pharm Biopharm 2024; 198:114271. [PMID: 38537907 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2024.114271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 03/17/2024] [Accepted: 03/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
Liposome is a promising carrier for pulmonary drug delivery and the nano-sized liposomes have been widely investigated in the treatment of lung diseases. However, there still lack the knowledge of micron-sized liposomes for lung delivery, which have more advantages in terms of drug loading and sustained drug release capacity. The micron-sized liposomes can be classified into multilamellar liposome (MLL) and multivesicular liposome (MVL) according to their microstructure, thus, this study focused on exploring how the micron-sized liposomes with different microstructure and phospholipid composition influence their interaction with the lung. The MLL and MVL were prepared from different types of phospholipids (including soya phosphatidylcholine (SPC), egg yolk phosphatidylcholine (EPC), and dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC)) with geometric diameter around 5 μm, and their in vitro pulmonary cell uptake, in vivo lung retention and organ distribution were investigated. The results showed that the microstructure of liposomes didn't affect pulmonary cellular uptake, in vivo lung retention and organ distribution. MLL and MVL prepared with the same phospholipid had similar cellular uptake in both NR8383 cells and A549 cells, and both of them possessed prolonged lung retention and limited distribution in other organs during 72 h. Notably, the phospholipid type presented remarkable influence on liposomes' interaction with the lung. SPC-based liposomes exhibited higher cellular uptake than the DPPC-based ones in both NR8383 cells and A549 cells, also possessed a better lung retention behavior. In conclusion, this study might provide theoretical knowledge for designing micron-sized liposomes intended for lung delivery.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid-based creams are commonly used for treatments of psoriatic skin lesions while showing poor permeation because the thickened stratum corneum severely limits drug absorption. Although dissolving microneedle (DMN) patches have been employed in treating skin disease by virtue of their direct target to the lesion site, conventional DMN patches are generally fabricated from the water-soluble matrix, making them difficult to efficiently encapsulate hydrophobic glucocorticoids. Here, we develop a mechanically robust supramolecular DMN composed of hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (HPCD) to effectively and uniformly load triamcinolone acetonide (TA). The TA-loaded HPCD DMN (TAMN) exhibits excellent mechanical performance that can easily pierce the thickened psoriasis lesions and deliver TA efficiently. Owing to the increased water solubility and bioavailability of TA after inclusion into HPCD, TAMN shows a superior in vitro inhibitory effect on immortalized human keratinocyte (HaCaT) cells. Importantly, the administration of TAMN twice a week effectively alleviates psoriatic signs and reduces the expression of Ki67, IL-23, and IL-17 in the ear lesions of imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like mice. This supramolecular DMN provides a promising strategy for the efficient treatment of psoriasis and other skin diseases, greatly broadens the applications of supramolecular materials in transdermal drug delivery, and widens the range of drugs in DMNs.

Abstract
Objective: Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) have a high propensity for thrombosis, which has been attributed to increased blood counts, endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction, and inflammation. The presence of the JAK2V617F mutation in the ECs of MPN patients has been confirmed, but the consequences of EC involvement by JAK2V617F in the pathogenesis of thrombosis are unclear. Endothelial microparticles (EMPs) released from ECs play an important role in endothelial dysfunction and also in the intercellular exchange of biological signals and information. Several studies have revealed that patients with JAK2V617F and a thrombosis history have increased numbers of MPs in their circulation. Materials and Methods: The current study utilized a lentiviral transduction model of JAK2 wild type (JAK2wt) or JAK2V617F encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP) into human umbilical vein ECs to determine the effect of JAK2V617F on ECs. EC infected with JAK2V617F, JAK2WT, and only-GFP were tested after two days of culture. Results: The proteins of ECs that potentially play a role in the development of thrombosis, including endothelial protein C receptor, thrombomodulin, and tissue factor, were detected by flow cytometry analysis with no statistical significance. Increased annexin-V uptake of JAK2V617F and JAK2wt ECs compared to GFP-alone ECs was detected. The EMP production in the supernatants of the EC culture was investigated. Genotyping of the EMPs revealed the presence of genomic DNA and RNA fragments in EMP cargos. JAK2V617F-positive DNA was detected in EMPs released from JAK2V617F-infected ECs and EMPs were shown to carry the genotype of the cell of origin. Conclusion: JAK2V617F-positive EMPs were shown for the first time in the literature. This novel research provides the first evidence that EMPs might regulate neighboring and distant cells via their cargo materials. Thus, the direct effect of JAK2V617F on ECs and their functions suggests that different mechanisms might play a role in the pathogenesis of thrombosis in MPNs.

Abstract
The lack of clinical response to the alkylating agent temozolomide (TMZ) in pediatric diffuse midline/intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) has been associated with O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) expression and mismatch repair deficiency. Hence, a potent N(3)-propargyl analogue (N3P) was derived, which not only evades MGMT but also remains effective in mismatch repair deficient cells. Due to the poor pharmacokinetic profile of N3P (t1/2 < 1 h) and to bypass the blood-brain barrier, we proposed convection enhanced delivery (CED) as a method of administration to decrease dose and systemic toxicity. Moreover, to enhance N3P solubility, stability, and sustained distribution in vivo, either it was incorporated into an apoferritin (AFt) nanocage or its sulfobutyl ether β-cyclodextrin complex was loaded into nanoliposomes (Lip). The resultant AFt-N3P and Lip-N3P nanoparticles (NPs) had hydrodynamic diameters of 14 vs 93 nm, icosahedral vs spherical morphology, negative surface charge (-17 vs -34 mV), and encapsulating ∼630 vs ∼21000 N3P molecules per NP, respectively. Both NPs showed a sustained release profile and instant uptake within 1 h incubation in vitro. In comparison to the naked drug, N3P NPs demonstrated stronger anticancer efficacy against 2D TMZ-resistant DIPG cell cultures [IC50 = 14.6 (Lip-N3P) vs 32.8 μM (N3P); DIPG-IV) and (IC50 = 101.8 (AFt-N3P) vs 111.9 μM (N3P); DIPG-VI)]. Likewise, both N3P-NPs significantly (P < 0.01) inhibited 3D spheroid growth compared to the native N3P in MGMT+ DIPG-VI (100 μM) and mismatch repair deficient DIPG-XIX (50 μM) cultures. Interestingly, the potency of TMZ was remarkably enhanced when encapsulated in AFt NPs against DIPG-IV, -VI, and -XIX spheroid cultures. Dynamic PET scans of CED-administered zirconium-89 (89Zr)-labeled AFt-NPs in rats also demonstrated substantial enhancement over free 89Zr radionuclide in terms of localized distribution kinetics and retention within the brain parenchyma. Overall, both NP formulations of N3P represent promising approaches for treatment of TMZ-resistant DIPG and merit the next phase of preclinical evaluation.

Abstract
Nanoparticles are often used to serve as drug delivery systems to improve the therapeutic efficacy of some hydrophobic drugs. In this work, PEG and peptide-modified titanium phosphate nanoparticles (TiP-PEG/peptide) were synthesized to enhance the drug delivery efficacy of tirucalla-8,24-diene-3β,11β-diol-7-one (KS-01), a major bioactive and hydrophobic component extracted from Euphorbia kansui. This drug delivery system with a loading efficiency of about 29.8 mg KS-01/1 g TiP-PEG/peptide exerted a significantly lower cell viability rate of MCF-7 than free KS-01, indicating that these carriers can effectively increase the therapeutic efficacy by improving its water solubility. Moreover, according to the fluorescence intensity of FAM which can be generated by caspase-3 cleaving DEVD-embedded peptide, the caspase-3 level could be determined and the therapeutic efficacy could be visualized in real time.

Abstract
The objective of the article is to provide a comprehensive review on the application of cyclodextrin
complexation in the delivery of drugs, bioactive molecules or macromolecules, with more emphasis on targeted
drug delivery. Classically the cyclodextrins have been considered only as a means of improving the solubility of
drugs; however, many attempts have been made to use cyclodextrins as drug delivery carriers. The cyclodextrin
surface can be modified with various ligands for active targeting of drugs. It can also be passively targeted
through various triggering mechanisms like thermal, magnetic, pH dependent, light dependent, ultrasound, etc. A
comprehensive literature review has been done in the area of drug delivery using cyclodextrins. Applications of
inclusion complexes in the drug delivery through various routes with examples are discussed. This review focuses
on receptor mediated active targeting as well as stimuli responsive passive targeting of drugs/genes by using
cyclodextrins. The article provides a detailed insight of the use of cyclodextrins and their derivatives on the targeted
delivery of the drugs/genes.
