Payload drug vs. nanocarrier biodegradation by myeloperoxidase- and peroxynitrite-mediated oxidations: pharmacokinetic implications.

ABSTRACT: With the advancement of nanocarriers for drug delivery into biomedical practice, assessments of drug susceptibility to oxidative degradation by enzymatic mechanisms of inflammatory cells become important. Here, we investigate oxidative degradation of a carbon nanotube-based drug carrier loaded with Doxorubicin. We employed myeloperoxidase-catalysed and peroxynitrite-mediated oxidative conditions to mimic the respiratory burst of neutrophils and macrophages, respectively. In addition, we revealed that the cytostatic and cytotoxic effects of free Doxorubicin, but not nanotube-carried drug, on melanoma and lung carcinoma cell lines were abolished in the presence of tumor-activated myeloid regulatory cells that create unique myeloperoxidase- and peroxynitrite-induced oxidative conditions. Both ex vivo and in vitro studies demonstrate that the nanocarrier protects the drug against oxidative biodegradation.

Project description:Compared with traditional oral and injection administration, the transdermal administration of traditional Chinese medicine has distinctive characteristics and advantages, which can avoid the "first pass effect" of the liver and the destruction of the gastrointestinal tract, maintain a stable blood concentration, and prolong drug action time. However, the basic theory and technology research in transdermal drug delivery are relatively limited at present, especially regarding research on new carriers of transdermal drug delivery and pharmacokinetic studies of the skin, which has become a bottleneck of transdermal drug delivery development. Triptolide is one of the main active components of Tripterygium wilfordii, which displays activities against mouse models of polycystic kidney disease and pancreatic cancer but its physical properties and severe toxicity limit its therapeutic potential. Due to the previously mentioned advantages of transdermal administration, in this study, we performed a detail analysis of the pharmacokinetics of a new transdermal triptolide delivery system. Triptolide nanoemulsion gels were prepared and served as new delivery systems, and the ex vivo characteristics were described. The metabolic characteristics of the different triptolide transdermal drug delivery formulations were investigated via skin-blood synchronous microdialysis combined with LC/MS. A multiscale modeling framework, molecular dynamics and finite element modeling were adopted to simulate the transport process of triptolide in the skin and to explore the pharmacokinetics and mathematical patterns. This study shows that the three-layer model can be used for transdermal drug delivery system drug diffusion research. Therefore, it is profitable for transdermal drug delivery system design and the optimization of the dosage form. Based on the drug concentration of the in vivo microdialysis measurement technology, the diffusion coefficient of drugs in the skin can be more accurately measured, and the numerical results can be verified. Therefore, the microdialysis technique combined with mathematical modeling provides a very good platform for the further study of transdermal delivery systems. This research will provide a new technology and method for the study of the pharmacokinetics of traditional Chinese medicine transdermal drug delivery. It has important theoretical and practical significance in clarifying the metabolic transformation of percutaneous drug absorption and screening for appropriate drugs and dosage forms of transdermal drug delivery.

Project description:The CytoSorb hemoadsorption device (CytoSorbents Inc, Monmouth Junction, NJ) is increasingly used in many critical disease states. The potential impact on the pharmacokinetic (PK) of concomitantly administered drugs must be considered in clinical practice. The current review summarizes relevant mechanistic principles, available preclinical and clinical data, and provides general guidance for the management of concomitant drug administration during CytoSorb therapy.Data sourcesDetailed search strategy using the PubMed and OVID MEDLINE databases, as well as presented congress abstracts for studies on drug removal by the CytoSorb device.Study selectionHuman, animal, and bench-top studies with PK or drug-removal data during CytoSorb therapy were selected for inclusion. Publications reporting on CytoSorb treatments for drug overdose were not considered.Data extractionRelevant PK data were examined and synthesized for narrative review.Data synthesisTo date, PK data during CytoSorb hemoadsorption are available for more than 50 drugs, including analgesics, antiarrhythmics, anticonvulsants, antidepressants, antihypertensives, antiinfectives, antithrombotics, anxiolytics, and immunosuppressants. Based on available PK data, drugs were categorized into low (<30%), moderate (30-60%), or high rates of removal (>60%), or, alternatively, according to clearance increase relative to endogenous clearance: negligible (<25%), low (25-100%), moderate (100-400%), or high (>400%). In most reports, additional impact of the extracorporeal platform where CytoSorb was integrated was not available. Based on available data and considering drug, patient, and setup-specific aspects, general dosing guidance for clinical practice was developed.ConclusionsCytoSorb therapy may increase drug elimination through active removal. However, the extent of removal is heterogeneous, and its clinical significance, if any, depends on the broader clinical context, including a patient's specific endogenous drug clearance and the underlying extracorporeal platform used. The available data, although not definitive, allow for general guidance on dosing adjustments during CytoSorb therapy; however, any treatment decisions should always be complemented by clinical judgment and therapeutic drug monitoring, when available.
