Ultra-small micelles based on polyoxyl 15 hydroxystearate for ocular delivery of myricetin: optimization, in vitro, and in vivo evaluation.

ABSTRACT: The aim was to develop a nanocarrier based on polyoxyl 15 hydroxystearate (Kolliphor® HS15, HS15) micelles for the solubility, stability, and ocular delivery of myricetin (Myr). An optimized ratio of HS15 and Myr was prepared to fabricate HS15-Myr micelle ophthalmic solution. Myr-encapsulating HS15 micelles (HS15-Myr micelles) were subjected to physicochemical characterizations. The chemical stability of Myr in HS15 micelles and storage stability of HS15-Myr micelle ophthalmic solutions were evaluated. In vitro parallel artificial membrane permeability assay and antioxidant activity of Myr in HS15 micelles were also measured. In vivo ocular tolerance, corneal permeation, and anti-inflammatory efficacy studies were conducted following ocular topical administration. HS15-Myr micelles were successfully prepared and presented transparent appearance with high encapsulation (96.12?±?0.31%), ultra-small micelle size (a mean diameter of 12.17?±?0.73?nm), uniform size distribution (polydispersity index [PDI]?=?0.137?±?0.013), and negative surface charge (-?[4.28?±?0.42] mV). Myr in HS15 micelle solution demonstrated higher aqueous stability than the free Myr solution among the accepted pH range for eyedrops. HS15-Myr micelle ophthalmic solution demonstrated high storage stability at 4?°C and 25?°C. HS15 micelles could significantly improve in vitro antioxidant activity and faster membrane permeation of Myr. No irritations or corneal damage were revealed in rabbit eyes after ocular administration of HS15-Myr micelle solution. In vivo corneal permeation study demonstrated that HS15-Myr micelles could penetrate the cornea efficiently in mouse eyes. Further, HS15-Myr micelles also demonstrated significant in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. It can be concluded that HS15 micelles are a potential ophthalmic delivery nanocarrier for poorly soluble drugs such as Myr.

Project description:This study investigates the development of topically applied non-invasive amino-functionalized silica nanoparticles (AMSN) and O-Carboxymethyl chitosan-coated AMSN (AMSN-CMC) for ocular delivery of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU). Particle characterization was performed by the DLS technique (Zeta-Sizer), and structural morphology was examined by SEM and TEM. The drug encapsulation and loading were determined by the indirect method using HPLC. Physicochemical characterizations were performed by NMR, TGA, FTIR, and PXRD. In vitro release was conducted through a dialysis membrane in PBS (pH 7.4) using modified Vertical Franz diffusion cells. The mucoadhesion ability of the prepared nanoparticles was tested using the particle method by evaluating the change in zeta potential. The transcorneal permeabilities of 5-FU from AMNS-FU and AMSN-CMC-FU gel formulations were estimated through excised goat cornea and compared to that of 5-FU gel formulation. Eye irritation and ocular pharmacokinetic studies from gel formulations were evaluated in rabbit eyes. The optimum formulation of AMSN-CMC-FU was found to be nanoparticles with a particle size of 249.4 nm with a polydispersity of 0.429, encapsulation efficiency of 25.8 ± 5.8%, and drug loading capacity of 5.2 ± 1.2%. NMR spectra confirmed the coating of AMSN with the CMC layer. In addition, TGA, FTIR, and PXRD confirmed the drug loading inside the AMSN-CMC. Release profiles showed 100% of the drug was released from the 5-FU gel within 4 h, while AMSN-FU gel released 20.8% of the drug and AMSN-CMC-FU gel released around 55.6% after 4 h. AMSN-CMC-FU initially exhibited a 2.45-fold increase in transcorneal flux and apparent permeation of 5-FU compared to 5-FU gel, indicating a better corneal permeation. Higher bioavailability of AMSN-FU and AMSN-CMC-FU gel formulations was found compared to 5-FU gel in the ocular pharmacokinetic study with superior pharmacokinetics parameters of AMSN-CMC-FU gel. AMSN-CMC-FU showed 1.52- and 6.14-fold higher AUC0-inf in comparison to AMSN-FU and 5-FU gel, respectively. AMSN-CMC-FU gel and AMSN-FU gel were "minimally irritating" to rabbit eyes but showed minimal eye irritation potency in comparison to the 5 FU gel. Thus, the 5-FU loaded in AMSN-CMC gel could be used as a topical formulation for the treatment of ocular cancer.
