The nanosuspensions were lyophilized without cryoprotectants and the nanocrystals were characterized in terms of particle size, zeta potential, and dissolution performance. The in vivo study was performed in infected animals treated with nanoformulated fenbendazole and raw drug and their metabolic impact was quantified by analyzing specific metabolites.Results: Fenbendazole samples were obtained by nanoprecipitation in > 80% yield. The average particle size of the freeze-dried samples was between 372 nm and 1600 nm. The nanosystems released a greater amount of the drug into the solution, compared to the raw drug. The in vivo studies showed that the fenbendazole-treated groups induced gluconeogenesis, partial blockage of the TCA cycle, and increased protein catabolism. As seen, the nanoformulation presented a greater effect on these parameters than the raw drug leading to remarkable modifications in the metabolism of the parasite, which in turn can influence the overall course of the infection and treatment outcomes.Conclusion: These findings suggest that nanoformulated fenbendazole may be considered a valuable approach for an effective treatment of neurocysticercosis.","PeriodicalId":20004,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Development and Technology","volume":" ","pages":"1093-1100"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142605848","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}

This study aimed to prepare ATRA-loaded proliposomal nanofibers and evaluate their effectiveness on microbial biofilm inhibition. Blank and ATRA-loaded proliposomal nanofiber formulations were fabricated in various polyvinylpyrrolidone, phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol ratios. TEM images verified the rapid formation of the liposomes after the hydration of nanofibers. The vesicle size, polydispersity index and zeta potential values of self-assembled liposomes were measured. The vesicle size values were found to be 321.9-363.8 nm with PDI values varying between 0.332 and 0.511 and zeta potential values of (-16.8) to (-20.5)mV. ATRA-loaded proliposomal nanofibers provided higher bioadhesion (0.25 mJ/cm2) than the commercial cream (0.07 mJ/cm2). The short-term stability results showed that the initial characteristics remained for three months at 4 °C. The proposed ATRA-loaded self-assembled proliposomal system provided antibacterial, fungistatic or fungicidal effects superior to retinoic acid itself and inhibited biofilm formation in lower concentrations.

The Lewis base SFE component (LB-comp) was found to govern the acid-base interactions of the tested surfaces, and its value was higher for punch surfaces affected by sticking. The surfaces exhibiting higher LB-comp are more prone to strong acid-base interactions with water molecules that evaporate from the powder bed during compression.

This study examined allantoin emulsions and gel formulations. In water-in-oil (W/O) and oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, the main emulsifier was varied, while the same gelling agent was used in all formulations to test the effects of oil phase presence and emulsifier type on allantoin release, as well as the formulations' rheological and textural characteristics. O/W emulsions exhibited similar release rates and the overall amount released over six hours (11-14.8%), while the highest amount of allantoin (20.9%) was released from the gel formulation. Conversely, the amount of allantoin released from the W/O emulsion (0.77%) was insufficient. Experimental data generally fit best with the Higuchi model kinetics. The formulations demonstrated shear-thinning thixotropic behavior. The greatest deviation from the Newtonian type of flow, with the smallest value of constant n (0.106-0.13) and the largest thixotropic loop area (6602.67-8140 Pas-1) were shown by O/W emulsions. The W/O emulsion exhibited the highest constant n (0.70) and smaller hysteresis area (991.23 Pas-1). Firmness and consistency values increased in the order: gel < W/O emulsion < O/W emulsions. The O/W emulsions showed similarity in microstructure and textural characteristics, likely explaining their similar release behavior.","PeriodicalId":20004,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical Development and Technology","volume":" ","pages":"1033-1041"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142472339","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}
