Mannosylated lipid nano-emulsions loaded with lycorine-oleic acid ionic complex for tumor cell-specific delivery.

ABSTRACT: This study was to prepare a mannosylated lycorine lipid nano-emulsion formulation (M-LYC-OA-LNEs) for the aim of achieving tumor targeting delivery of lycorine (LYC) . The low lipophilicity of LYC made it hard to be dispersed into lipid nano-emulsions (LNEs). In order to increase its lipophilicity, lycorine-oleic acid ionic complex (LYC-OA) was made. M-LYC-OA-LNEs and uncoated lycorine-oleic acid loaded lipid nano-emulsions (LYC-OA-LNEs) were prepared by solvent injection method and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), particle size, polydispersity index, zeta-potential and entrapment efficiency analysis. The in vitro cellular uptake and growth inhibition activity studies were performed on A549 cell lines. The entrapment efficiency of M-LYC-OA-LNEs was 82.7 ± 1.6 %. The cellular uptake study showed that coated LNEs were preferably taken up by A549 cells than uncoated LNEs. The effective test by MTT assay showed better growth inhibition activity of M-LYC-OA-LNEs on A549 cell lines when compared with LYC-OA-LNEs and blank LNEs. These results demonstrated that M-LYC-OA-LNEs could be a promising formulation for tumor targeting delivery of LYC with the potential of being applied in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

Project description:Periodontitis (PD) as a chronic inflammatory disease instigated by periodontal pathogenic bacteria and mediated by the host immune response, resulting in the destruction of supporting periodontal tissue and tooth loss in adults. Constructing an injectable delivery system that allows for sustained drug release within periodontal pockets to continuously eliminate pathogenic bacteria, reduce periodontal inflammation, and promote periodontal tissue regeneration is an effective strategy for periodontitis treatment. Here, we explore the therapeutic potential and underlying mechanisms of curcumin-loaded Pickering emulsion (PE-CUR) in periodontitis treatment. The Pickering emulsion formulation offers an effective delivery system, enhancing curcumin's bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy. In vitro studies, we demonstrate that the PE-CUR exhibit excellent biocompatibility and anti-inflammatory property by elimination of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In addition, PE-CUR significantly eliminate key periodontal pathogens, including Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In a rat model of periodontitis, PE-CUR significantly attenuates periodontal tissue inflammation and alveolar bone loss, indicating a protective effect against periodontal tissue destruction. Mechanistically, PE-CUR promotes the expression of anti-inflammatory factors and inhibits the release of pro-inflammatory factors by regulating macrophage polarization from M1 to M2 and modulating the MAPK and PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. Furthermore, PE-CUR decreases the formation of osteoclasts as well as stimulates the activation and differentiation of osteoblasts successively, thereby ameliorating the periodontal inflammation and promoting the alveolar bone regeneration. Overall, our findings elucidate the therapeutic mechanisms of PE-CUR in periodontitis, suggesting its potential as a promising treatment strategy warranting further clinical investigation.
