L-ascorbic acid (Vit C) possesses a variety of dermatological functions in maintaining skin health and anti-aging properties. However, its topical application is challenging owing to its liability to light, oxygen, or heat. Therefore, in this study, a novel liposomal system, including a lipophilic neutral oil named a lipo-oil-some (LOS), was designed to improve the chemical stability and aid the skin absorption of Vit C. The vesicular systems were prepared using the ethanol injection method, employing phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol, dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphoglycerol, and tricaprylin as neutral oil. The optimized LOS was characterized as follows: shape, multi-layered sphere; size, 981 nm; zeta potential, -58 mV; and Vit C encapsulation efficiency, 35%. The encapsulation of the labile compound into the novel system markedly enhanced photostability, providing over 10% higher Vit C remaining compared to Vit C solution or Vit C-loaded conventional liposome under a light intensity of 20,000 lx. On the other hand, the skin permeation and accumulation of Vit C with the LOS system were comparable to those of smaller conventional liposomes (198 nm) in a Franz diffusion cell model mounted with porcine skin. Based on these findings, we concluded that the novel liposomal system could be utilized for skin delivery of Vit C with enhanced chemical stability.
L-抗坏血酸(维生素C)在维持皮肤健康和抗老化方面具有多种皮肤学功能。然而,由于其对光、氧或热敏感,局部应用具有挑战性。因此,在本研究中,设计了一种新型脂质体系统,包括一种名为脂质油体(LOS)的亲脂性中性油,以提高维生素C的化学稳定性并促进其皮肤吸收。使用乙醇注入法制备囊泡系统,采用磷脂酰胆碱、胆固醇、二棕榈酰-sn-甘油-3-磷酸甘油和三辛酸甘油酯作为中性油。优化后的LOS具有以下特征:形状,多层球体;大小,981nm;ζ电位,-58mV;维生素C包封率,35%。将不稳定化合物包封到新型系统中显著提高了光稳定性,在20000勒克斯的光照强度下,与维生素C溶液或负载维生素C的传统脂质体相比,维生素C残留量高出10%以上。另一方面,在安装有猪皮的Franz扩散池模型中,维生素C与LOS系统的皮肤渗透和积累与较小的传统脂质体(198nm)相当。基于这些发现,我们得出结论,新型脂质体系统可用于维生素C的皮肤递送,并具有增强的化学稳定性。
