New micelle myricetin formulation for ocular delivery: improved stability, solubility, and ocular anti-inflammatory treatment.

ABSTRACT: Myricetin (Myr) is a naturally occurring flavonoid exhibiting diverse biological and pharmacological properties, but its characteristics such as water insolubility, poor aqueous stability, and poor bioavailability limit its clinical application, including in ophthalmology. To increase its clinical application in ophthalmology, Myr was designed to be encapsulated in a polyvinyl caprolactam-polyvinyl acetate-polyethylene glycol graft copolymer (PVCL-PVA-PEG) polymeric micelles to increases its aqueous solubility, stability, and corneal permeability to promote its efficacy in eye disease treatments. Thus, the Myr micelle ophthalmic solution was prepared and characterized encapsulation efficiency (EE), micelle size, and zeta potential. The chemical stability of Myr and the short-term storage stability of the Myr micelle ophthalmic solution were evaluated, followed by in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo ocular irritation; in vitro cellular uptake and in vivo corneal permeation; and in vitro antioxidant activity and in vivo anti-inflammatory efficacy were also further evaluated. Myr could be incorporated into micelles with high EE. PVCL-PVA-PEG micelles significantly enhanced Myr's aqueous solubility and chemical stability. The Myr micelle ophthalmic solution also showed high storage stability. In rabbits, the Myr micelle ophthalmic solution displayed good in vitro cellular tolerance. Remarkable improvements in in vitro cellular uptake and in vivo corneal permeation were also observed in the Myr micelle ophthalmic solution, and significant improvements in the in vitro antioxidant activity and in vivo anti-inflammatory efficacy were also obtained. Overall, these results supported that the Myr micelle ophthalmic solution could be a promising nanomedicine for ocular tissues.

Project description:Valorization of wheat bran (WB) into new high-value products is of great interest within the framework of sustainability and circular economy. In the present study, we utilized a multi-step approach to extract nutraceutical compounds (phenolic acids) from WB and improved its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties through using sequential hydrothermal and enzymatic hydrolysis. Thirteen commercial glycosidases differing in their specific activity were screened and compared for hydrolytic efficiency to release monosaccharides, ferulic acid, and diferulic acid. Ultraflo XL was selected as the desired enzyme treatment on the basis of its higher WB solubilization, as well as its monosaccharide and phenolic acids yields. The relationships between better hydrolytic performance of Ultraflo XL and its particular activity profile were established. To determine the optimum conditions for Ultraflo XL treatment, we tested different factors (solvent pH, incubation temperature, and time) under 15 experiments. A multicomponent analysis (MCA), including central composite design, model fitness, regression coefficients, analysis of variance, 3D response curves, and desirability, was used for processing optimization. A beneficial effect of autoclave treatment on the release of phenolic compounds was also evidenced. The results of MCA showed involvement of linear, quadratic, and interactive effects of processing factors, although solvent pH was the main determinant factor, affecting enzymatic extraction of phenolics and bioactivity of hydrolysates. As compared to control WB, under optimized conditions (47 °C, pH = 4.4, and 20.8 h), WB hydrolysates showed 4.2, 1.5, 2, and 3 times higher content of ferulic acid (FA) and capacity to scavenge oxygen radicals, chelate transition metals, and inhibit monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 secretion in macrophages, respectively. These approaches could be applied for the sustainable utilization of WB, harnessing its nutraceutical potential.
