Abstract
Introduction: 4-methyl umbelliferon (4MU) is a coumarin with anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, enzyme-inhibiting, and antioxidant properties. Despite the benefits of the compound, it is eliminated very quickly from the blood circulation through the liver, kidney, and digestive system due to its hydrophobic properties. In this study we proposed to improve the durability of 4MU by binding of 4MU to poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) and graphene oxide (GO).
Methods: The PVA-4MU-GO complex was synthesized and characterized. Release of 4MU from the complex was investigated. H9C2 cells viability was investigated and the entry of complex to the cell was analyzed using flow cytometry.
Result: UV-Vis and FTIR studies confirmed the interaction of 4MU with PVA and GO. SEM measurement also revealed a particle size around 101 nm for PVA-4MU-GO complexes. The obtained results confirmed the assembly of PVA-4MU-GO. A continuous drug release for 8 d (160 h) was achieved. Cytotoxic studies on H9C2 cell showed that PVA-4MU-GO complex is dependent to the concentration of GO and also the relation of 4MU to GO. Sustained release and penetration of PVA-4MU-GO complex into the H9C2 cell were observed.
Conclusion: PVA-4MU-GO complex is recommended as an alternative for 4MU. Synthesis the complex of PVA-4MU-GO, verifying the correct binding, showing the in vitro release of the 4MU, as well as checking its toxicity and its gradual entry into the H9C2 cell, were performed in this study.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Drug Development and Industrial Pharmacy is to publish novel, original, peer-reviewed research manuscripts within relevant topics and research methods related to pharmaceutical research and development, and industrial pharmacy. Research papers must be hypothesis driven and emphasize innovative breakthrough topics in pharmaceutics and drug delivery. The journal will also consider timely critical review papers.
