Glycyrrhizic acid (GL), a pentacyclic triterpenoid glycoside, has been used as a hepatoprotective agent for the treatment of acute and chronic hepatitis. However, its poor solubility and permeability across the gastrointestinal mucosa limit its clinical efficacy. This study aimed to develop mixed micelles based on pluronic F127 and d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) to improve the oral bioavailability of GL. GL loaded pluronic F127/TPGS mixed micelles (GL-F127/TPGS-MMs) were prepared by thin film hydration method, and their physicochemical properties including particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency (EE), drug loading (DL), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and drug release were characterized. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic and biodistribution studies of GL-F127/TPGS-MMs were evaluated in rats and compared with GL solution. GL-F127/TPGS-MMs were found to be of spherical shape with particle size of (27.41 ± 4.90) nm, EE% of 95.38% and DL% of 12.99%. The results of XRD and DSC indicated that GL was encapsulated in the micelles. Drug release of GL-F127/TPGS-MMs demonstrated a sustained release behavior as compared to GL solution. The pharmacokinetic and biodistribution studies showed a significantly higher oral absorption and liver accumulation of glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) after oral administration of GL-F127/TPGS-MMs as compared to GL solution. These results suggested F127/TPGS-MMs might be a potential nanocarrier for oral delivery of GL.
甘草酸(GL)是一种五环三萜糖苷,已被用作治疗急、慢性肝炎的肝保护剂。然而,其在胃肠道黏膜中的溶解度和渗透性差限制了其临床疗效。本研究旨在开发基于 Pluronic F127 和 d-α-生育酚聚乙二醇 1000 琥珀酸酯(TPGS)的混合胶束,以提高 GL 的口服生物利用度。采用薄膜水化法制备 GL 负载 Pluronic F127/TPGS 混合胶束(GL-F127/TPGS-MMs),并对其理化性质(粒径、Zeta 电位、包封率、载药量、X 射线衍射分析、差示扫描量热法和药物释放)进行表征。此外,还在大鼠体内进行了 GL-F127/TPGS-MMs 的药代动力学和生物分布研究,并与 GL 溶液进行了比较。GL-F127/TPGS-MMs 呈球形,粒径为(27.41±4.90)nm,包封率为 95.38%,载药量为 12.99%。XRD 和 DSC 结果表明 GL 被包封在胶束中。与 GL 溶液相比,GL-F127/TPGS-MMs 的药物释放呈现出持续释放行为。药代动力学和生物分布研究表明,与 GL 溶液相比,口服 GL-F127/TPGS-MMs 后,甘草次酸(GA)的口服吸收和肝脏蓄积显著增加。这些结果表明 F127/TPGS-MMs 可能是 GL 口服给药的潜在纳米载体。
