Resveratrol (RSV) is a bioactive phytoconstituent that has potential applications in respiratory diseases. However, poor oral bioavailability is the major hurdle to its clinical use. In the present work, resveratrol-loaded polycaprolactone (PCL) inhalable microspheres (MSs) were formulated to improve their therapeutic potential. The inhalable microspheres were formulated using the emulsion-solvent evaporation method. In this research, inhalable resveratrol microspheres were prepared using Tween 80 in place of polyvinyl alcohol which formed insoluble lumps. A 3 factorial design was applied taking polymer (PCL) and emulsifier (Tween 80) as independent variables and drug loading (DL) and encapsulation efficiency (EE) as dependent variables. The DL and EE of the optimized formulation were found to be 30.6% and 63.84% respectively. The in vitro aerosolization study performed using the Anderson cascade impactor showed that the fine particle fraction (FPF) of optimized resveratrol polycaprolactone microspheres (RSV-PCL-MSs) blended with lactose, and RSV-PCL-MSs were significantly higher than those of the pure drugs. The MMAD (theoretical mass median aerodynamic diameter) of optimized RSV-PCL-MSs was found to be 3.25 ± 1.15. The particle size of microspheres was within the inhalable range, i.e., between 1 and 5 µm. The morphological analysis showed spherical-shaped particles with smooth surfaces. The in vitro release study showed sustained drug release from the microspheres for up to 12 h. The study concluded that resveratrol-loaded inhalable microspheres may be an efficient delivery system to treat COPD.
白藜芦醇(RSV)是一种具有生物活性的植物成分,在呼吸系统疾病中有潜在的应用。然而,较差的口服生物利用度是其临床应用的主要障碍。在本工作中,载白藜芦醇的聚己内酯(PCL)可吸入微球(MSs)被用来提高其治疗潜力。可吸入微球采用乳液-溶剂蒸发法进行制备。在本研究中,采用吐温 80 代替聚乙烯醇形成不溶性团块来制备可吸入白藜芦醇微球。采用 3 因素设计,以聚合物(PCL)和乳化剂(吐温 80)为自变量,药物载量(DL)和包封效率(EE)为因变量。优化处方的 DL 和 EE 分别为 30.6%和 63.84%。使用安德森级联撞击器进行的体外雾化研究表明,与乳糖混合的优化白藜芦醇聚己内酯微球(RSV-PCL-MSs)的细颗粒分数(FPF)明显高于纯药物的 FPF。优化 RSV-PCL-MSs 的 MMAD(理论质量中值空气动力学直径)为 3.25±1.15μm。微球的粒径在可吸入范围内,即 1-5μm。形态分析显示,微球具有光滑的表面,呈球形。体外释放研究表明,微球中药物可持续释放长达 12h。研究表明,载白藜芦醇的可吸入微球可能是一种有效的治疗 COPD 的给药系统。
