Development and characterization of nanolipobeads-based dual drug delivery system for H. Pylori targeting

摘要

The objective of the present investigation was to prepare and evaluate nanolipobeads which permit the targeting of drugs to H. Pylori and potentially used for the treatment of gastric ulcer. For this polyvinyl alcohol nanoparticles were prepared by freeze thaw cyclizing method and surface acylation was done by treating with (1M) palmitoyl chloride in hexane followed by addition of 0.1 N NaOH to induce acylation by adjusting pH below 6.5. Finally, nanolipobeads synthesis was carried out by combining equal parts of suspension of acylated poly vinyl alcohol nanoparticles (PVA-NPs) and AMOX encapsulated PE liposomes suspension. The uniformity of supported PE lipid layer on acylated PVA-NPs was examined using fluorescence and confocal laser scanning electron microscopy. The optimized nanolipobeads formulation demonstrated 773.3±4.3nm average age size and 84.7±2.9% of AMOX and 67.5±2.8% of RBC release up to 72h, respectively. Furthermore, binding specificity and targeting propensity toward H. pylori (SKP-56) was confirmed by agglutination and in situ adherence assay. Reduction of the absolute alcohol induced ulcerogenic index from 3.01±0.25 to 0.31±0.09 and 100% H. pylori clearance rate was observed. These results suggested that nanolipobeads are potential vector for development of dual drug delivery for effective treatment of H. pylori associated peptic ulcer.
