Herein, we described the structure elucidation including the absolute configurations of GLJ and GLK, explored and compared their anti-cancerous effects and underlying mechanism in A549 and NCI-H292 ​cells. The results indicated that GLJ and GLK are two isomers with different configuration at C-12, they inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in two lung cancer cell lines with almost the same extent. The induction of apoptosis by GLJ and GLK was demonstrated by DAPI and annexin-V-FITC/PI staining. Further investigation revealed increased Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, cleaved caspase-3, caspase-9 and PARP, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in cells, indicating that GLJ and GLK induced mitochondrial apoptosis. Increased GRP78, p-eIF2α and GADD153 manifested that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress was induced by GLJ and GLK. Meanwhile, upregulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was found and GLJ and GLK-induced ER stress and apoptosis could be attenuated by ROS scavenger NAC. Apoptosis induced by GLJ and GLK also could be alleviated by ER stress inhibitor 4-PBA. These showed that GLJ and GLK-induced apoptosis was mediated by ER stress relied on ROS generation. The efficacy of GLJ and GLK on lung cancer cell proliferation was further demonstrated in a zebrafish xenograft model. Collectively, the absolute configurations of GLJ and GLK were identified and they exerted lethal effects on lung cancer cells to the same extent via ROS-ER stress-mitochondrial apoptosis signaling, suggesting that GLJ and GLK might be used as potential modulating agents in lung cancer treatments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101012,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Science Advances","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100065"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143512284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, oral use of MRZ could have drawbacks in onset of actions and ease of administration by caregivers. This study was the first attempt to develop nasal powder formulation (NP), an easily-administered formulation, of MRZ containing a microenvironmental pH-modifier for rapid dissolution and absorption. Ten mixtures of MRZ and counterions were tested in terms of the supersaturation level and stability to select a favorable pH-modifier. NP of MRZ (NP/MRZ) with the selected counterion was prepared by jet milling and characterized regarding physicochemical properties and pharmacokinetic (PK) behaviors after intranasal administration to rabbits. In phosphate buffer solution (PBS, pH5.6), glutamic acid (Glu) showed 10.7-fold supersaturation of MRZ, with the value being the highest among the ten counterions tested. The addition of Glu led to no significant change in the photostability or chemical stability of MRZ compared with crystalline MRZ. NP/MRZ with Glu (NP/MRZ-E) consisted of microcrystals of MRZ and Glu attached to lactose carriers, and over 93% of MRZ was emitted from a capsule in Jetlizer™. Both NP/MRZ-E and NP/MRZ exhibited enhanced dissolution in PBS compared with crystalline MRZ, and more rapid dissolution was observed for NP/MRZ-E. In rabbits, a crushed MRZ tablet (3 ​mg-MRZ/kg, <em>p.o.</em>) exhibited a time to maximum plasma concentration (<em>T</em><sub>max</sub>) and bioavailability (BA) of 72 ​min and 10%, respectively. NP/MRZ-E (0.3 ​mg-MRZ/kg, <em>i.n.</em>) showed <em>T</em><sub>max</sub> of &lt;5 ​min with BA of 93%, and this result might be due to rapid dissolution/permeation in nasal mucosa and avoidance of the hepatic first-pass effect. In conclusion, NP employing a microenvironmental pH-modifier would be a promising dosage form of MRZ to offer rapid nasal absorption.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101012,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Science Advances","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100068"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143714445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
