Abstract
Background
Ischemic stroke has become one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide in individuals aged 60 and above. However, currently available drugs show limited efficacy. Therefore, research to find more effective and safer therapeutic strategies is an urgent requirement for the treatment of cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury (CIRI).
Methods
First, the free radical scavenger Edaravone and a Ginseng active ingredient were coloaded into liposomes (aER@Lip), followed by optimization and characterization. Pluronic F127 and F68 at different concentrations were mixed and stored at 4 °C for more than 24 h to obtain gel solutions. Then, aER@Lip was added to the gel solutions to prepare the drug-loaded in situ gel, termed aER@Lip-TSG.
Results
In vitro experiments showed that aER@Lip-TSG was taken up by cells and had a good protective effect on oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation in pheochromocytoma 12 cells. In a rat CIRI model, aER@Lip-TSG delivered by intranasal administration not only decreased the apoptosis in brain tissue induced by CIRI, but also decreased the resultant inflammatory response. Moreover, the results suggested that aER@Lip-TSG had good biosafety.
Conclusion
This delivery system provides a promising multi-factor combination, synergistic effects, sustained-release capabilities, and is a non-invasive treatment strategy for CIRI. It thus meets the urgent need for effective treatments of central nervous system diseases.
期刊介绍:
An international multidisciplinary journal devoted to fundamental research in the brain sciences.
Brain Research publishes papers reporting interdisciplinary investigations of nervous system structure and function that are of general interest to the international community of neuroscientists. As is evident from the journals name, its scope is broad, ranging from cellular and molecular studies through systems neuroscience, cognition and disease. Invited reviews are also published; suggestions for and inquiries about potential reviews are welcomed.
With the appearance of the final issue of the 2011 subscription, Vol. 67/1-2 (24 June 2011), Brain Research Reviews has ceased publication as a distinct journal separate from Brain Research. Review articles accepted for Brain Research are now published in that journal.
