Enhanced Dissolution of Luteolin by Solid Dispersion Prepared by Different Methods: Physicochemical Characterization and Antioxidant Activity.

ABSTRACT: Luteolin (LT) is a poorly soluble bioactive compound that suffered bioavailability problems after oral administration. Hence, the aim of the proposed research work was to formulate and investigate various solid dispersions (SDs) of LT in order to enhance its dissolution and bioactivity. LT-SD was prepared using polyethylene glycol 4000 (PEG 4000) as a carrier at the mass ratios of 1:1, 1:2, and 1:4. LT-SD was prepared using different methods including fusion (FU), solvent evaporation (SE), and microwave irradiation (MI) methods. The prepared LT-SD was duly characterized in terms of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and evaluated for dissolution and in vitro antioxidant activity. The results of DSC, XRD, SEM, IR, and NMR suggested the formation of LT-SD. After 90 min of the dissolution study, the results displayed that the % release of LT from prepared SD was significantly higher compared with the pure LT and its physical mixture dispersion (PMD). LT-SD prepared using the MI method displayed the maximum release of LT (i.e., 97.78 ± 4.41%) at a 1:2 mass ratio of LT:PEG 4000. The LT-SD prepared using the SE method displayed the maximum release of 93.78 ± 3.98% at a mass ratio of 1:4 of LT:PEG 4000. The SD prepared by the MI method showed enhanced dissolution due to higher aqueous solubility and the reduction of particle size. The solid-state characterization studies (DSC, XRD, SEM, IR, and NMR studies) suggested the morphological conversion of LT into the amorphous form from the crystalline state. The results of the antioxidant study revealed that the formation LT-SD displayed significantly higher radical scavenging activity than the pure LT. Therefore, SD obtained using PEG 4000 could be a potential strategy for maximizing the solubility, in vitro dissolution, and therapeutic efficacy of LT.

Project description:The complex formation of antiandrogen bicalutamide (BCL) with methylated (Me-β-CD) and acetylated (Ac-β-CD) β-cyclodextrins was investigated in buffer solution pH 6.8. A two-fold strongly binding of BCL to Ac-β-CD as compared to Me-β-CD was revealed. The solid dispersion of BCL with Ac-β-CD was prepared by the mechanical grinding procedure to obtain the complex in the solid state. The BCL/Ac-β-CD complex was characterized by DSC, XPRD, FTIR, and SEM techniques. The effect of Ac-β-CD in the BCL solid dispersions on the non-sink dissolution/permeation simultaneous processes was disclosed using the side-by-side diffusion cell with the help of the cellulose membrane. The elevated dissolution of the ground complex, as compared to the raw drug as well as the simple physical mixture, accompanied by the supersaturation was revealed. Two biopolymers-polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP, Mn = 58,000) and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC, Mn ~ 10,000)-were examined as the precipitation inhibitors and were shown to be useful in prolonging the supersaturation state. The BCL/Ac-β-CD complex has the fastest dissolution rate in the presence of HPMC. The maximal concentration of the complex was achieved at a time of 20, 30, and 90 min in the pure buffer, with PVP and with HPMC, respectively. The effectiveness of the BCL dissolution (release) processes (illustrated by the AUCC(t) parameter) was estimated to be 7.8-, 5.8-, 3.0-, and 1.8-fold higher for BCL/Ac-β-CD (HPMC), BCL/Ac-β-CD (PVP), BCL/Ac-β-CD (buffer), and the BCL/Ac-β-CD physical mixture, respectively, as compared to the BCL_raw sample. The excipient gain factor (EGF), calculated for the dissolution of the BCL complex, was shown to be 2.6 in the presence of HPMC, which is 1.3-fold greater as compared to PVP. From the experimental dissolution results, it can be concluded that the formation of BCL ground complex with Ac-β-CD enhances the dissolution rate of the compound. The permeation was also shown to be advantageous in the presence of the polymers, which was demonstrated by the elevated fluxes of BCL through the membrane. The comparison of the dissolution/permeation processes was illustrated and discussed. The conclusion was made that the presence of HPMC as a stabilizer of the supersaturation state is promising and seems to be a useful tool for the optimization of BCL pharmaceutical formulations manufacturing.
