Abstract
Nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems offer a solution to the pharmacokinetic limitations of voriconazole (VRC), including saturable metabolism and low oral bioavailability. This study developed zein/pectin/hyaluronic acid nanoparticles (ZPHA-VRC NPs) to improve VRC’s pharmacokinetics and biodistribution. The nanoparticles had a spherical morphology with an average diameter of 268 nm, a zeta potential of −48.7 mV, and an encapsulation efficiency of 88%. Stability studies confirmed resistance to pH variations and digestive enzymes in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids. The in vitro release profile showed a controlled release, with 8% of the VRC released in 2 h and 16% over 24 h. Pharmacokinetic studies in rats demonstrated a 2.8-fold increase in the maximum plasma concentration and a 3-fold improvement in bioavailability compared to free VRC. Biodistribution analysis revealed enhanced VRC accumulation in key organs. These results suggest that ZPHA-VRC NPs effectively improve VRC’s therapeutic potential for oral administration.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces is a leading interdisciplinary journal that brings together chemists, engineers, physicists, and biologists to explore the development and utilization of newly-discovered materials and interfacial processes for specific applications. Our journal has experienced remarkable growth since its establishment in 2009, both in terms of the number of articles published and the impact of the research showcased. We are proud to foster a truly global community, with the majority of published articles originating from outside the United States, reflecting the rapid growth of applied research worldwide.
