The in vitro dissolution absorption system 2 (IDAS2), a recent invention comprised a conventional dissolution vessel containing 2 permeation chambers with Caco-2 cell monolayers mounted with their apical side facing the dissolution media, permits simultaneous measurement of dissolution and permeation of drugs from intact clinical dosage forms. The objectives of this study were (1) to assess the utility of IDAS2 in the determination of the effect of particle size on in vitro performance of indomethacin and (2) to find out whether the behavior in IDAS2 of 2 indomethacin products differing in particle size is correlated with their in vivo behavior. Indomethacin dissolution and permeation across Caco-2 cell monolayers were simultaneously measured in IDAS2; the dissolution and permeation profiles were simultaneously modeled using a simple two-compartment model. Compared to microsized indomethacin, the nanosized formulation increased the dissolution rate constant by fivefold, whereas moderately increasing the permeation rate constant and the kinetic solubility. As a result, the drug amount permeated across the Caco-2 cell monolayers doubled in the nanosized versus microsized formulation. The in vitro results showed a good correlation with in vivo human oral pharmacokinetic parameters, thus emphasizing the physiological relevance of IDAS2 data in predicting in vivo absorption. 相似文献

Coamorphous system has proved to be an effective approach to improve the solubility of BCSⅡ drugs. Florfenicol (FF) is a widely used veterinary antibiotic but has poor aqueous solubility. Therefore, the coamorphous system of florfenicol and oxymatrine (OMT) formulated at 1:1 and 1:2 M ratios were prepared by using solvent evaporation, followed by a series of characterization in terms of PXRD, DSC, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy. It was found that FF and OMT are miscible according to Hansen solubility parameters. The molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) and radial distribution function (RDF) analysis demonstrated the possible hydrogen bond interaction in coamorphous system, which was confirmed by FTIR and Raman spectra. The coamorphous FF-OMT (1:1) maintained stability for 60 days at 25 °C/0% RH and 30 days at 40 °C/75% RH, which may be attributed to better molecular miscibility of FF and OMT and the strong hydrogen bond of O–H (FF)?O–N (OMT) and N–H (FF)?O–N (OMT). In addition, the apparent solubility and permeability, dissolution and intrinsic dissolution rate (IDR) of the acquired coamorphous solids were obviously increased compared with crystalline FF. In conclusion, a drug-drug coamorphous formulation can be applied to improve the solubility and dissolution of crystalline FF. 相似文献

In this study, a modified dissolution apparatus was developed by equipping a USP apparatus Ⅰ with an open-loop system to discriminate the dissolution capacity in vitro and establish an in vitro and in vivo correlation (IVIVC) for mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) tablets. MMF had strong pH-dependent solubility that could influence the dissolution rate in vivo after the meal. Dissolution tests involving reference (Cellcept®) and test formulations (F1 and F2) were conducted using pH 4.5 acetate buffer to simulate gastric fluids in the fed state. The dissolution profiles of the reference and test formulations were distinguished by using the modified dissolution apparatus and compared with those determined using the USP apparatuses Ⅱ and Ⅳ, and the dissolution capacities of the formulations were discriminated at different sampling time-points. The results of human bioequivalence (BE) studies in the fed state were consistent with in vitro evaluations that the maximum concentrations (Cmax, in vivo) of both F1 and F2 fell below the acceptable range (80.00%). A level A IVIVC between the absorption fraction in vivo and dissolution in vitro, and a level C correlation between Cmax, in vivo and Cmax, in vitro, were established to guide the optimization of the tablet formulation containing MMF. 相似文献

It is well acknowledged that the oral absorption of a drug can be influenced by its solubility, which is usually associated with its solid form properties. G1032 is a retinoic acid–related orphan receptor inverse agonist. Crystalline solid (form A) was identified with an aqueous solubility of 130 μg/mL. This form was used in an oral dose escalation study in rodents up to 300 mg/kg and achieved good exposures. Later on, a more stable crystalline hydrate (form B) was identified and the aqueous solubility was reduced to 55 μg/mL. A modeling exercise suggested that this solubility change would cause a 2-fold decrease in exposure at tested doses; however, the actual reduction was far larger than the model predicted. At high dose, exposure was found to be reduced by almost 10-fold. A parameter sensitivity analysis suggested that such a drop in exposure could be associated with permeability reduction as well. More in vitro permeability experiments were performed, indicating G1032 was an efflux transporter substrate. This finding was integrated into the modeling and the design for in vivo studies. Data obtained from those studies allowed us to better understand the causes of the higher-than-expected exposure change and enabled decision-making. 相似文献

Physical or chemical interactions between drug product (DP) components can occur during manufacturing and/or upon storage; and may alter DP shelf life and performance. In this work a new Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD) peak was observed in DP under accelerated storage conditions. Due to the complex drug product matrix (including API, polymer, fillers, super disintegrant and lubricant), it was challenging to pinpoint the component(s) responsible for the new peak. In addition to PXRD, other orthogonal techniques including Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic vapor sorption (DVS), Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (SSNMR) and Infrared (IR) spectroscopy were employed in this investigation to understand the root cause mechanistically. Specifically, multi nuclei SSNMR (1H, 23Na, 13C) was instrumental in delineating the components of the matrix. We identified the root cause to be an acid base reaction occurring in the DP, whereby sodium ion in sodium stearyl fumarate (SSF) is replaced by proton leading to SSF form conversion. We also identified commercially available SSF to be a hydrate that can dehydrate to an anhydrous form upon heating. In general, the same techniques can be used to investigate interactions of any multi component solid dosage forms. 相似文献

Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death globally and metastasis always leads to treatment failure. Here, we develop a versatile hydrogel loading photothermal agents, chemotherapeutics, and immune-adjuvants to eradicate orthotopic tumors and inhibit metastasis by combinational therapy. Hydrogel networks were synthesized via the thiol-Michael addition of polydopamine (PDA) with thiolated hyaluronic acid. PDA acted as a cross-linking agent and endowed the hydrogel with excellent photothermal property. Meanwhile, a chemotherapeutic agent, doxorubicin (DOX), was loaded in the hydrogel via π?π stacking with PDA and an immune-adjuvant, CpG-ODN, was loaded via electrostatic interaction. The release of DOX from the hydrogel was initially slow but accelerated due to near infrared light irradiation. The hydrogels showed remarkably synergistic effect against 4T1 cancer cells and stimulated plenty of cytokines secreting from RAW264.7 cells. Moreover, the hydrogels eradicated orthotopic murine breast cancer xenografts and strongly inhibited metastasis after intratumoral injection and light irradiation. The high anticancer efficiency of this chemo-photothermal immunotherapy resulted from the strong synergistic effect of the versatile hydrogels, including the evoked host immune response. The combinational strategy of chemo-photothermal immunotherapy is promising for highly effective treatment of breast cancer. 相似文献

Data are examined regarding possible waiver of in vivo bioequivalence testing (i.e. biowaiver) for approval of metformin hydrochloride (metformin) immediate-release solid oral dosage forms. Data include metformin's Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) properties, including potential excipient interactions. Metformin is a prototypical transporter-mediated drug and is highly soluble, but only 50% of an orally administered dose is absorbed from the gut. Therefore, metformin is a BCS Class III substance. A BCS-based approval approach for major changes to marketed products and new generics is admissible if test and reference dosage forms have the identical active pharmaceutical ingredient and if in vitro dissolution from both are very rapid (i.e. at least 85% within 15 min at pH 1.2, 4.5, and 6.8). Recent International Council for Harmonisation BCS guidance indicates all excipients for Class III biowaivers are recommended to be qualitatively the same and quantitatively similar (except for preservatives, flavor agents, colorant, or capsule shell or film coating excipients). However, despite metformin being a prototypical transporter-mediated drug, there is no evidence that commonly used excipients impact metformin absorption, such that this restriction on excipients for BCS III drugs merits regulatory relief. Commonly used excipients in usual amounts are not likely to impact metformin absorption. 相似文献

Programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1)/programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) cascade is an effective therapeutic target for immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Targeting PD-L1/PD-1 axis by small-molecule drug is an attractive approach to enhance antitumor immunity. Using flow cytometry-based assay, we identify tubeimoside-1 (TBM-1) as a promising antitumor immune modulator that negatively regulates PD-L1 level. TBM-1 disrupts PD-1/PD-L1 interaction and enhances the cytotoxicity of T cells toward cancer cells through decreasing the abundance of PD-L1. Furthermore, TBM-1 exerts its antitumor effect in mice bearing Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) and B16 melanoma tumor xenograft via activating tumor-infiltrating T-cell immunity. Mechanistically, TBM-1 triggers PD-L1 lysosomal degradation in a TFEB-dependent, autophagy-independent pathway. TBM-1 selectively binds to the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase and suppresses the activation of mTORC1, leading to the nuclear translocation of TFEB and lysosome biogenesis. Moreover, the combination of TBM-1 and anti-CTLA-4 effectively enhances antitumor T-cell immunity and reduces immunosuppressive infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and regulatory T (Treg) cells. Our findings reveal a previously unrecognized antitumor mechanism of TBM-1 and represent an alternative ICB therapeutic strategy to enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. 相似文献

Tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation (TCIPA) is a mechanism that involves the protection of tumor cells in the circulation and the promotion of tumor cell invasion and metastases. The C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2) that binds podoplanin (PDPN) is on the platelet surface and facilitates the TCIPA. Selective blockage of the PDPN-mediated platelet-tumor cell interaction is thereby a plausible strategy for inhibiting metastases. In a search for antagonists of PDPN- and tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation, traditional Chinese medicines were screened and it was found that the water extract of Artemisia argyi leaves selectively inhibited the PDPN-induced platelet aggregation. Bioactivity-guided fractionation analysis was performed for defining a polysaccharide-containing fraction (AAWAP) characterized by inhibition of PDPN activity and tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation. The pharmacological effects of AAWAP on PDPN-activated CLEC-2 signaling were determined by using Western blot and alpha screening analyses. AAWAP was non-toxic to the cells and platelets and it suppressed PDPN- and tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation by irreversibly blocking the interaction between PDPN and CLEC-2 in a dose-dependent manner. These findings indicate that AAWAP is an antagonist of the PDPN-CLEC-2 interaction. This action by AAWAP may result in the prevention of tumor cell metastases, and if so, could become an effective pharmacological agent in treating cancer patients. 相似文献

Major challenges for cancer treatment are how to effectively eliminate primary tumor and sufficiently induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) to provoke a robust immune response for metastasis control. Here, a self-assembled cascade bioreactor was developed to improve cancer treatment with enhanced tumor penetration and synergistic therapy of starvation, chemodynamic (CDT) and photothermal therapy. Ultrasmall FeS-GOx nanodots were synthesized with glucose oxidase (GOx) as template and induced by paclitaxel (PTX) to form self-assembling FeS-GOx@PTX (FGP) via hydrophobic interaction. After accumulated at tumor sites, FGP disassembles to smaller FeS-GOx for enhanced deep tumor penetration. GOx maintains high enzymatic activity to catalyze glucose with assistant of oxygen to generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as starvation therapy. Fenton reaction involving the regenerated H2O2 in turn produced more hydroxyl radicals for enhanced CDT. Following near-infrared laser at 808 nm, FGPs displayed pronounced tumor inhibition in vitro and in vivo by the combination therapy. The consequent increased exposure to calreticulin amplified ICD and promoted dendritic cells maturation. In combination with anti-CTLA4 checkpoint blockade, FGP can absolutely eliminate primary tumor and avidly inhibit distant tumors due to the enhanced intratumoral infiltration of cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Our work presents a promising strategy for primary tumor and metastasis inhibition. 相似文献

Attractive self-interaction processes in antibody formulations increase the risk of aggregation and extraordinarily elevated viscosity at high protein concentrations. These challenges affect manufacturing and application. This study aimed to understand the self-interaction process of Infliximab as a model system with pronounced attractive self-interaction. The association mechanism was studied by a multi-method approach comprising analytical ultracentrifugation, dynamic light scattering, small angle X-ray scattering, self-interaction bio-layer interferometry and hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry. Based on our results, both Fab and Fc regions of Infliximab are involved in self-interaction. We hypothesize a mechanism based on electrostatic interactions of polar and charged residues within the identified areas of the heavy and the light chain of the mAb. The combination of fast and reliable screening methods and low throughput but high resolution methods can contribute to detailed characterization and deeper understanding of specific self-interaction processes. 相似文献

The first rate-limiting enzyme of the serine synthesis pathway (SSP), phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), is hyperactive in multiple tumors, which leads to the activation of SSP and promotes tumorigenesis. However, only a few inhibitors of PHGDH have been discovered to date, especially the covalent inhibitors of PHGDH. Here, we identified withangulatin A (WA), a natural small molecule, as a novel covalent inhibitor of PHGDH. Affinity-based protein profiling identified that WA could directly bind to PHGDH and inactivate the enzyme activity of PHGDH. Biolayer interferometry and LC–MS/MS analysis further demonstrated the selective covalent binding of WA to the cysteine 295 residue (Cys295) of PHGDH. With the covalent modification of Cys295, WA blocked the substrate-binding domain (SBD) of PHGDH and exerted an allosteric effect to induce PHGDH inactivation. Further studies revealed that with the inhibition of PHGDH mediated by WA, the glutathione synthesis was decreased and intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were elevated, leading to the inhibition of tumor proliferation. This study indicates WA as a novel PHGDH covalent inhibitor, which identifies Cys295 as a novel allosteric regulatory site of PHGDH and holds great potential in developing anti-tumor agents for targeting PHGDH. 相似文献

BackgroundType 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients are exposed to a 7.5 times higher risk of hypoglycemia while fasting during Ramadan. Relevant diabetes guidelines prioritize the use of SGLT2 inhibitors over other classes. There is a great need to enrich data on their safe and effective use by fasting patients at greater risk of hypoglycemia. Therefore, this study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of Empagliflozin in T2DM Muslim patients during Ramadan.MethodologyA prospective cohort study was conducted for adult Muslim T2DM patients. Patients who met the inclusion criteria were categorized into two sub-cohorts based on Empagliflozin use during Ramadan (Control versus Empagliflozin). The primary outcomes were the incidence of hypoglycemia symptoms and confirmed hypoglycemia. Other outcomes were secondary. All patients were followed up to eight weeks post-Ramadan. A propensity score (PS) matching and Risk Ratio (RR) were used to report the outcomes.ResultsAmong 1104 patients with T2DM who were screened, 220 patients were included, and Empagliflozin was given to 89 patients as an add-on to OHDs. After matching with PS (1:1 ratio), the two groups were comparable. The use of other OHDs, such as sulfonylurea, DPP4 inhibitors, and Biguanides, was not statistically different between the two groups. The risk of hypoglycemia symptoms during Ramadan was lower in patients who received Empagliflozin than in the control group (RR 0.48 CI 0.26, 0.89; p-value = 0.02). Additionally, the risk of confirmed hypoglycemia was not statistically significant between the two groups (RR 1.09 CI 0.37, 3.22; p-value = 0.89).ConclusionEmpagliflozin use during Ramadan fasting was associated with a lower risk of hypoglycemia symptoms and higher tolerability. Further randomized control trials are required to confirm these findings. 相似文献

Extracellular uridine nucleotides regulate physiological and pathophysiological metabolic processes through the activation of P2Y2, P2Y4, P2Y6 and P2Y14 purinergic receptors, which play a key role in adipogenesis, glucose uptake, lipolysis and adipokine secretion. Using adipocyte-specific knockout mouse models, it has been demonstrated that lack of the P2Y6R or P2Y14R can protect against diet-induced obesity and improve whole-body glucose metabolism. The P2Y2R facilitated adipogenesis and inflammation, and the loss of P2Y4R or P2Y14R raised the levels of the protective endocrine factor adiponectin. Hence, potent antagonists for these receptors may be tested to identify drug candidates for the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes. However, future studies are required to provide insight into purinergic regulation of brown adipocytes and their role in thermogenesis. This review summarizes the current studies on uridine nucleotide-activated P2YRs and their role in adipocyte function, diet-induced obesity and associated metabolic deficits. 相似文献

Artemisinin and its derivatives (ARTs) were reported to display heme-dependent antitumor activity. On the other hand, histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) were known to be able to promote heme synthesis in erythroid cells. Nevertheless, the effect of HDACi on heme homeostasis in non-erythrocytes remains unknown. We envisioned that the combination of HDACi and artesunate (ARS) might have synergistic antitumor activity through modulating heme synthesis. In vitro studies revealed that combination of ARS and HDACi exerted synergistic tumor inhibition by inducing cell death. Moreover, this combination exhibited more effective antitumor activity than either ARS or HDACi monotherapy in xenograft models without apparent toxicity. Importantly, mechanistic studies revealed that HDACi coordinated with ARS to increase 5-aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS1) expression, and subsequent heme production, leading to enhanced cytotoxicity of ARS. Notably, knocking down ALAS1 significantly blunted the synergistic effect of ARS and HDACi on tumor inhibition, indicating a critical role of ALAS1 upregulation in mediating ARS cytotoxicity. Collectively, our study revealed the mechanism of synergistic antitumor action of ARS and HDACi. This finding indicates that modulation of heme synthesis pathway by the combination based on ARTs and other heme synthesis modulators represents a promising therapeutic approach to solid tumors. 相似文献

Liver dysfunction reduces systemic clearance of drugs that are primarily eliminated by the liver. However, liver dysfunction can cause a reduction in the plasma concentration profiles of certain drugs, including several tyrosine kinase inhibitors, after oral administration. The aim of the present study was to clarify the reduction in oral absorption of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, imatinib, and the mechanisms of action involved under conditions of hepatic dysfunction, focusing on intestinal transporters. The maximum plasma concentration of imatinib after oral administration in mice subjected to bile duct ligation (BDL) was lower than that in sham-operated mice, whereas the plasma concentration profile after intravenous administration was essentially unaffected by BDL. The change in maximum plasma concentration was compatible with a reduction in small intestinal permeability of imatinib observed in the in situ closed loop. Gene expression of abcg2 was increased in BDL mice compared with that in sham-operated mice. Expression of breast cancer resistance protein and P-glycoprotein in the small intestinal brush border membrane fraction from BDL mice was also increased compared with that in sham-operated mice. In summary, the intestinal absorption and permeability of imatinib was decreased in BDL mice, and this may be attributed to the up-regulation of the efflux transporter(s). 相似文献

An immune response for a nasal ovalbumin (OVA) powder formulation with an applied nasal delivery platform technology, consisting of a powdery nasal carrier and a device, was evaluated in monkeys with similar upper respiratory tracts and immune systems to those of humans, in order to assess the applicability to a vaccine antigen. Nasal distribution and retention studies using a 3D nasal cavity model and manganese-enhanced MRI were conducted by administering nasal dye and manganese powder formulations with the applied technology. Systemic and mucosal immune responses for the nasal OVA powder formulation were evaluated by determining serum IgG and nasal wash IgA antibody titers. The nasal dye and manganese powder formulations showed wider distribution and longer retention time than did a nasal liquid formulation. The nasal OVA powder formulation also showed comparable and higher antigen-specific IgG antibody titer to an injection and nasal liquid formulation, respectively. Furthermore, antigen-specific IgA antibody response was detected only for the nasal OVA powder formulation. The present study suggests that the technology, originally designed for drug absorption, is promising for nasal vaccines, enabling both a mucosal immunity response as the first line of defense and systemic immunity response as a second line of defense against infection. 相似文献
