Luteolin (LLN) is a natural bioactive compound and is found in various plant sources. It has many pharmacological activities, <i>i.e.</i>, anticancer, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial. It has poor water solubility, leading to low dissolution, low bioavailability, and low therapeutic efficacy. The present research work was to develop the LLN-loaded gel microbeads using a combination of sodium alginate (SA) and gum tragacanth polymers to strengthen microbeads (BD) and enhance the therapeutic efficacy. The microbeads were prepared by using the ionotropic gelation method and evaluated by various physicochemical parameters, <i>i.e.</i>, particle size, encapsulation efficiency, swelling index, FITR, and X-ray diffraction study. The optimized microbeads (LLNBD3) showed a 97.63 ± 3.12% yield, 845 ± 6.21 μm in size, and 78.54 ± 3.65% drug entrapment efficiency. The microbeads exhibited excellent swelling in intestinal pH (6.8) compared with an acidic medium (pH 1.2). The LLNBD3 exhibited a sustained release profile (89.23 ± 2.51% in 12 h) with first-order release kinetics (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.9752) with the Fickian diffusion mechanism of drug release. The Fourier transform infrared spectra and X-ray diffractograms did not show any distinct peaks of LLN, revealing that the LLN was encapsulated into a microbeads matrix. The LLNBD3 showed significant antioxidant activity compared with pure LLN, confirmed by the 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. In addition, it also showed remarkable in vitro anticancer activity against the colorectal cell line (HT-29) and antimicrobial activity against <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> and <i>Escherichia coli</i>. The stability study demonstrated no significant change in swelling and release behavior. The finding concluded that tragacanth gum and SA microbeads could be promising drug carriers to improve the dissolution and oral delivery of herbal bioactive compounds and synthetic drugs.</i>\u0000 </p>","PeriodicalId":8586,"journal":{"name":"Assay and drug development technologies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143778785","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}

The invasome structure is flexible as opposed to regular liposomes; this is due to the presence of ethanol and terpene that increases lipid fluidity in the vesicle structure.

Network pharmacology and molecular docking methodologies were employed to predict the potential mechanisms of MFA against ALD. To substantiate these predictions, an acute alcoholic liver injury mouse model was utilized to assess the impact of MFA on serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total protein (TP), and albumin (ALB). Additionally, liver histopathology and the expression levels of phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (AKT) protein were evaluated. Seven active ingredients and 53 potential targets (including 7 core targets) for ALD treatment were identified in MFA. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses indicated that these seven core targets are implicated in various biological pathways, notably those associated with cancer, viral infections, and the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Furthermore, molecular docking studies demonstrated that docosahexaenoic acid and docosapentaenoic acid in MFA exhibited strong binding affinity for these seven crucial targets. Animal experiments demonstrated that administration of MFA significantly decreased the levels of AST, ALT, and ALP, while increasing the levels of ALB and TP in mice with acute alcoholic liver injury. Moreover, MFA ameliorated liver tissue pathology and markedly down-regulated the expression of PI3K and AKT proteins in the liver. These results suggest that MFA may possess therapeutic potential for ALD by targeting multiple pathways, with its mechanisms likely involving the inhibition of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.</i>\u0000 </p>","PeriodicalId":8586,"journal":{"name":"Assay and drug development technologies","volume":" ","pages":"151-163"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142999183","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}

Comprising glycerol, phospholipids, and water, glycerosomes offer superior drug stability, penetration, entrapment efficiency, fluidity, and viscosity compared with conventional liposomes.

Glycerol's plasticizing properties enhance vesicle elasticity and flexibility, enabling enhanced skin penetration. These vesicles demonstrate immense promise across a range of drug delivery pathways. In dermal and transdermal applications, glycerosomes augment drug permeation by moisturizing the stratum corneum and improving membrane fluidity. For oral delivery, they shield drugs from the harsh gastrointestinal environment and boost intestinal absorption. Pulmonary delivery benefits from glycerosomes' capacity to stabilize and disperse aerosolized vesicles, facilitating deep penetration into lung tissues. Ophthalmic applications profit from increased corneal penetration and extended retention. Intranasal use of glycerosomes enhances mucosal penetration and enables direct drug delivery to the central nervous system by circumventing the blood-brain barrier. Ongoing advancements in glycerosome technology concentrate on integrating diverse functional ingredients like essential oils, β-sitosterol, sodium hyaluronate, and trimethyl chitosan to develop specialized formulations.
