Abstract
The present work aim to develop pH responsive nanosystem comprising lumefantrine with calcium phosphate nanoparticles loaded lipidic cubosomes for the effective treatment of lung cancer. FTIR results showed that, compatibility nature of selected excipients for the synthesis of LF-CaP-Cs. The XRD results showed developed LF-CaP-Cs were non crystalline in nature. The selected developed LF-CaP-Cs were in cubic phase with average particle size of 259.4 ± 19 nm with a charge of -2.28 ± 0.7 mV. The encapsulation efficiency for LF within LF-CaP-Cs was about 78.76 ± 0.5%. RP-HPLC analysis showed that LF release rate gets significantly enhanced with higher peak area at pH 4.0 compared to pH 5.0/pH 7.4. The in-vitro release of LF-CaP-Cs showed that LF release gets significantly increased at pH 4.0 (84.04 ± 0.4%) compared to pH 7.4 (48.32 ± 1.6%) at 12 h. Further, CAM assay showed the superior anti-angiogenesis potential of developed LF-CaP-Cs compared to LF-Cs/blank Cs. The cytotoxicity effect of LF-CaP-Cs (28 ± 1.8 μg/mL) was significantly higher than that of free LF (40 ± 0.9 μg/mL). The results of cellular uptake study proved the localization of LF at cellular level and AO/EB staining results revealed that the A549 cell undergoes apoptosis in A549 cells.
