New repurposed rolapitant in nanovesicular systems for lung cancer treatment: Development, in-vitro assessment and in-vivo biodistribution study.

Intestinal lymphatic transport offers an alternative and effective way to deliver drugs, such as avoiding first-pass metabolism, enhancing oral bioavailability, and facilitating the treatment of targeted lymphoid-related diseases. However, the clinical use of luteolin (LUT) is limited by its poor water solubility and low bioavailability, and enhancing lymphatic transport by nanoemulsion may be an efficient way to enhance its oral bioavailability. The objective of this work is to prepare the luteolin nanoemulsions (LUT NEs), optimized its preparation parameters by using Box-Behnken design optimization (BBD) and evaluated it in vitro and in vivo. An Caco-2 / Raji B cell co-incubation monolayer model was established to simulate the M-cell pathway, and the differences in the transmembrane transport of LUT and NEs were compared. Cycloheximide (CHX) was utilized to establish rat chylomicron (CM) blocking model, and for investigating the influence of pharmacokinetic parameters in rats thereafter. The results showed that LUT NEs have good stability, the particle sizes were about 23.87 ± 0.57 nm. Compared with LUT suspension, The Papp of LUT NEs was enhanced for 3.5-folds, the oral bioavailability was increased by about 2.97-folds. In addition, after binding with chylomicron, the oral bioavailability of LUT NEs was decreased for about 30% (AUC 0-∞ (μg/L*h): 5.356 ± 1.144 vs 3.753 ± 0.188). These results demonstrated that NEs could enhance the oral absorption of luteolin via lymphatic transport routes.

Fabrication of Luteolin Nanoemulsion by Box-Behnken Design to Enhance its Oral Absorption Via Lymphatic Transport

Nanomaterials have gained huge attention worldwide owing to their unique physicochemical characteristics which enable their applications in the field of biomedicine and drug delivery systems. Although nanodrug delivery systems (NDDSs) have better target specificity and bioavailability than traditional drug delivery systems, their behavior and clearance mechanisms in living subjects remain unclear. In this regard, the importance of bioimaging methods has come to the forefront for investigating the biodistribution of nanocarriers and discovering drug release mechanisms in vivo. In this review, we introduce several examples of biohybrid nanoparticles and their clinical applications, focusing on their advantages and limitations. The various bioimaging methods for monitoring the fate of nanodrugs in biological systems and the future perspectives of NDDSs have also been discussed.

Biohybrid Nanoparticle-Based In Situ Monitoring of In Vivo Drug Delivery

Effect of the cargo lipophilicity on powder micromeritics properties of drug-loaded solid lipid microparticles

Recently, pressurized metered-dose inhalers (pMDIs) are getting more attention as an effective approach of pulmonary drug delivery, and nanoparticle-based formulations have become a new generation of pMDIs, especially for water insoluble drugs. Up until now, there is no clinical application of nanoparticle-based pMDIs. The main hurdle remains in the lack of knowledge of the in vivo fate of those systems. In this study, a fluorescent probe named P4 with aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect was loaded in the nanoparticle-based pMDIs to track the in vivo fate. P4 probe expressed strong fluorescence when distributed in intact nanoparticles, but quenched in the in vivo aqueous environment due to molecular aggregation. Experimentally, P4 probe was encapsulated into solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) as P4-SLN, and then, the formulation of pMDIs was optimized. The content (w/w) of the optimal formulation (P4-SLN-pMDIs) was as follows: 6.02% Pluronic® L64, 12.03% ethanol, 0.46% P4-SLN, and 81.49% 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (HFA-134a). P4-SLN-pMDI was transparent in appearance, possessed a particle size of 132.07 ± 3.56 nm, and the fine particle fraction (FPF) was 39.53 ± 1.94%, as well good stability was shown within 10 days. The results indicated P4-SLN-pMDI was successfully prepared. Moreover, the ACQ property of P4-SLN-pMDIs was verified, which ensured the fluorescence property as a credible tool for in vivo fate study. Taken together, this work established a platform that could provide a firm theoretical support for exploration of the in vivo fate of nanoparticle-based pMDIs in subsequent studies.
