Anti-angiogenic compounds can suppress melanoma cells. Orthosiphon stamineus (O.S) is a well-known herb with anticancer and anti-angiogenic effects. The health benefits of O.S extract is mainly due to its high antioxidant activity that can be attributed to rosmarinic acid (RA). However, RA has a limited ability to penetrate through the skin because of its hydrophilicity via topical application. The aim of this study is therefore to improve the penetrability of O.S extract through skin by sophorolipid (SL) nanovesicles, namely ethosome in mice. Methods Ethosome was made using thin film hydration method with sophorolipid as the surfactant. The ethosomal formulation of O.S (O.S-SL) was prepared at different concentrations and were physico-chemically characterized. Anti-angiogenic studies were then conducted. Anti-melanoma study was performed in albino mice using melanoma cell line (B16F10). Results The optimized vesicle was 387nm in size with -35.6mV potential and exhibited 10 times better permeation ability when compared to the hydroethanolic solution of O.S extract. O.S-SL revealed 100% anti-angiogenic effect ex vivo and 95.8% anti-melanoma effect in vivo. Conclusion The results of this study demonstrated that O.S-SL can be absorbed efficiently via topical application to the deeper layers of the skin. The formulation has shown promising anti-angiogenic and anti-melanoma effects after topical applications.
