Abstract
The use of anthocyanins are limited by their chemical properties. Recent evidence suggests Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) liposomes via the ethanol injection method exhibit improved stability. In the current study, the characterization and cell absorption of C3G liposomes were explored via transmission electron microscopy and flow cytometry. The internalization of the C3G liposomes across the gastric epithelial cell monolayer (GES-1 cells) were investigated. Results showed that the particle size and encapsulation efficiency were 234±9.35nm and 75.0% ± 0.001, respectively. The total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content were used to evaluate the antioxidant activity of C3G liposomes. The C3G liposomes can obviously increased T-AOC and decreased the MDA content.Collectively, C3G liposomes protected human GES-1 cells from gastric mucosal injury induced by H2O2 by activating the related antioxidant pathway. Our research could provide a new effective treatment strategy for the absorption of stomach drugs.Abbreviations: C3G: Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside; LP: Liposome; GES-1 cells: Human gastric epithelial cell lines; FBS: Fetal Bovine Serum; PBS: Phosphate-buffered saline; PC: Phosphatidylcholine; CH: Cholesterol; MDA: Malondialdehyde; TEM: Transmission electron microscope; FCM: Flow cytometry; FITC: Fluorescein isothiocyanate; DAPI: 4', 6-diamidino-2phenylidole; FT-IR: Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy; PFA: Paraformaldehyde.
