Current treatment strategies mainly focus on alleviating oxidative stress to regulate immune responses, thereby inhibiting the excessive immune activation that damages melanocytes, with drug interventions being the primary approach.

Using a ‘cradle-to-gate’ life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology, a quantitative sustainability comparison has been made between standard OSD manufacturing platforms across different production scales. The results demonstrate that for small batch sizes, DC produces tablets with the lowest carbon footprint, however at larger batch sizes, CDC is the most carbon efficient manufacturing platform. Due to the high carbon footprint of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), formulation process yields had the greatest impact on overall carbon footprint, although emissions from equipment energy, cleaning and facility overheads were also analysed.

In this work, various liposomal formulations were prepared using the thin-film hydration method followed by extrusion, to investigate their suitability for the encapsulation of the plant-derived antitumoral mistletoe lectin-1 (ML-1). This can be significantly optimized by exploiting its preferential binding to galactose-containing structures, such as modified lipids integrated into the liposomal bilayer. Incorporation of the galactosylated lipid DSPE-PEG2k-Gal into the membrane significantly enhanced the overall recovery rate and encapsulation efficiency of ML-1, attributed to its affinity for the functionalized component. Compared to non-functionalized liposomes, a 2-fold to 4-fold increase in percentage encapsulation efficiency was observed. The galactosylated lipid optimized the ratio of encapsulated to surface-adsorbed ML-1 and facilitated its preferential localization within the core of the liposomes. A strong correlation was identified between the number of entrapped ML-1 molecules per liposome and the degree of galactosylation. The formulations demonstrated high in vitro cytotoxicity, as exemplified with murine colon-26 carcinoma cells, with the galactose-functionalized liposomes achieving an IC<sub>50</sub> value comparable to free ML-1.
