Abstract

This study introduces two innovative nanocarrier systems to improve oral drug delivery. Desosomes and desimicelles combine Deep eutectic solvent (DES) with vesicular or micellar nanosystems, respectively. These novel nanosystems integrate the DES solubilization potency for administering drugs with low aqueous solubility and the vesicular and micellar systems to bypass physiological barriers and improve poor drug bioavailability. Lornoxicam (LRX) is a BCS class II anti-inflammatory with limited aqueous solubility and rapid clearance. Desosomes and desimicelles were prepared and successfully optimized. The optimization depended on particle size, zetapotential, entrapment efficiency, and solubility. The optimized desosomes (LRX-DES-V) and desimicelles (LRX-DES-M) were pictured by transmission electron microscope. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and FTIR analysis indicated the successful inclusion of LRX inside each system. Invitro LRX release profiles revealed controlled release of LRX-DES-V and LRX-DES-M, with more sustained release by the later one. In-vivo study, inflammation was induced using a carrageenan rat model, and the anti-inflammatory effect of LRX-pure, marketed product, traditional niosomes, LRX-DES-V & LRX-DES-M were determined using inhibition %, serum inflammatory cytokines, and histopathology. After 4 h of induction, LRX-DES-M (68.05%) showed a significant inhibition compared to LRX-DES-V (63.57%). LRX-DES-M also showed a better reduction in COX2, PGE2, and TNF-α (1.25-fold, 1.24-fold, and 1.36-fold inhibition), respectively, compared to LRX-DES-V. We can conclude that LRX-DES-V and LRX-DES-M showed better effects than all other groups and that LRX-DES-M might be more effective than LRX-DES-V.
