The liposomes were prepared by ethanol-injection method and optimized following a 3<sup>2</sup> full-factorial design. Size, morphology, zeta potential, <i>ex-vivo</i> permeation, and <i>in-vitro</i> release were estimated. The surface of optimized liposome was modified with ascorbic acid. The size of surface-modified liposomes was bigger (191.4 nm) than the unmodified liposomes (171 nm). Surface-modified liposomes were embedded in <i>in-situ</i> gel using poloxamer and Carbopol 934P. Liposomal <i>in-situ</i> gel showed higher permeation (71.94%) in contrast to the plain gel (46.64%). <i>In-vivo</i> pharmacokinetic examination of payload from liposomal <i>in-situ</i> gel displayed higher concentration in brain (<i>C</i><sub>max</sub> of 93.50 ng/mL). The liposomal <i>in-situ</i> nasal gel had a higher drug targeting efficiency (138.43%) and a higher drug targeting potential (27.77%) confirming improved brain targeting. In male Wistar rats, the pharmacodynamic parameters (path length and escape latency) were evaluated with trimethyl tin-induced neurodegeneration. Animals treated with BER-loaded <i>in-situ</i> gel significantly decreased escape latency and path length in comparison to the control group. Histopathological assessment showed that the formulated gel was safe for intranasal administration. The developed formulation has the potential to effectively enhance the efficacy of BER in Alzheimer's disease management.</p>","PeriodicalId":16286,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Liposome Research","volume":" ","pages":"135-152"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142710398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
