Abstract
Purpose The early stage of this study verified that a turmeric extract (TUR) including 59% curcumin (CU), 22% demethoxycurcumin (DMC), and 18% bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC), could enhance the stability of CU and had greater antidepressant potential in vitro. The objective of the study was to develop a nano-delivery system containing TUR (TUR-NE) to improve the pharmacokinetic behavior of TUR and enhance its antidepressant effect. Methods The antidepressant potential of TUR was explored using ABTS, oxidative stress-induced cell injury, and a high-throughput screening model. TUR-NE was fabricated, optimized and characterized. The pharmacokinetic behaviors of TUR-NE were evaluated following oral administration to normal rats. The antidepressant effect of TUR-NE was assessed within chronic unpredictable mild stress model (CUMS) mice. The behavioral and biochemical indexes of mice were conducted. Results The results depicted that TUR had 3.18 and 1.62 times higher antioxidant capacity than ascorbic acid and CU, respectively. The inhibition effect of TUR on ASP+ transport was significantly enhanced compared with fluoxetine and CU. TUR-NE displayed a particle size of 116.0 ± 0.31 nm, polydispersity index value of 0.121 ± 0.007, an encapsulation rate of 98.45%, and good release and stability in cold storage. The results of pharmacokinetics indicated the AUC(0-t) of TUR-NE was 8.436 and 4.495 times higher than that of CU and TUR, while the Cmax was 9.012 and 5.452 times higher than that of CU and TUR, respectively. The pharmacodynamic study confirmed that the superior antidepressant effect of TUR-NE by significantly improving the depressant-like behaviors and elevating the content of 5-hydroxytryptamine in plasma and brain in CUMS mice. TUR-NE showed good safety with repeated administration. Conclusion TUR-NE, which had small and uniform particle size, enhanced the bioavailability and antidepressant effect of TUR. It could be a promising novel oral preparation against depression.

Orthogonal Optimization, Characterization, and In Vitro Anticancer Activity Evaluation of a Hydrogen Peroxide-Responsive and Oxygen-Reserving Nanoemulsion for Hypoxic Tumor Photodynamic Therapy. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15051576. [PMID: 36900370 PMCID: PMC10000418 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15051576] [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: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Tumor hypoxia can seriously impede the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy (PDT). To address this issue, two approaches, termed in situ oxygen generation and oxygen delivery, were developed. The in situ oxygen generation method uses catalysts such as catalase to decompose excess H2O2 produced by tumors. It offers specificity for tumors, but its effectiveness is limited by the low H2O2 concentration often present in tumors. The oxygen delivery strategy relies on the high oxygen solubility of perfluorocarbon, etc., to transport oxygen. It is effective, but lacks tumor specificity. In an effort to integrate the merits of the two approaches, we designed a multifunctional nanoemulsion system named CCIPN and prepared it using a sonication-phase inversion composition-sonication method with orthogonal optimization. CCIPN included catalase, the methyl ester of 2-cyano-3,12-dioxooleana-1,9(11)-dien-28-oic acid (CDDO-Me), photosensitizer IR780, and perfluoropolyether. Perfluoropolyether may reserve the oxygen generated by catalase within the same nanoformulation for PDT. CCIPN contained spherical droplets below 100 nm and showed reasonable cytocompatibility. It presented a stronger ability to generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species and consequently destroy tumor cells upon light irradiation, in comparison with its counterpart without catalase or perfluoropolyether. This study contributes to the design and preparation of oxygen-supplementing PDT nanomaterials.
