Quality by design engineered, enhanced anticancer activity of temozolomide and resveratrol coloaded NLC and brain targeting via lactoferrin conjugation in treatment of glioblastoma
The objective of the work was to engineer lactoferrin conjugated temozolomide and resveratrol co-loaded NLC for the treatment of glioblastoma using intranasal delivery for brain targeting. Synergistic activity of temozolomide and resveratrol was determined using combination index method and 1:1 ratio was selected. QbD approach was used to formulate and optimize NLC, with minimum particle size, maximum transmittance and entrapment efficiency using Central Composite Rotable Design (CCRD) method. The optimized LTR-NLC had desired average particle size (209.3 nm), narrow PDI along, high percentage transmittance (>95%) and b...

Epigenetic regulation of temozolomide resistance in human cancers with an emphasis on brain tumors: Function of non-coding RNAs
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Jul 25;165:115187. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115187. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBrain tumors, which are highly malignant, pose a significant threat to health and often result in substantial rates of mortality and morbidity worldwide. The brain cancer therapy has been challenging due to obstacles such as the BBB, which hinders effective delivery of therapeutic agents. Additionally, the emergence of drug resistance further complicates the management of brain tumors. TMZ is utilized in brain cancer removal, but resistance is a drawback. ncRNAs are implicated in various diseases, and their involve...

Strategies increasing the effectiveness of temozolomide at various levels of anti-GBL therapy
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Jul 15;165:115174. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115174. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGlioblastoma (GBL) is the most common (60-70% of primary brain tumours) and the most malignant of the glial tumours. Although current therapies remain palliative, they have been proven to prolong overall survival. Within an optimal treatment regimen (incl. surgical resection, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy) temozolomide as the current anti-GBL first-line chemotherapeutic has increased the median overall survival to 14-15 months, and the percentage of patients alive at two years has been reported to rise from 1...

New therapy for pancreatic cancer based on extracellular vesicles
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Apr 4;162:114657. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114657. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC), is the most common aggressive cancer of the pancreas. The standard care of PDAC includes tumor resection and chemotherapy, but the lack of early diagnosis and the limited response to the treatment worsens the patient's condition. In order to improve the efficiency of chemotherapy, we look for more efficient systems of drug delivery. We isolated and fully characterized small Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) from the RWP-1 cell line. Our study indicates that the direct incubation m...

Sitagliptin inhibits the survival, stemness and autophagy of glioma cells, and enhances temozolomide cytotoxicity
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Mar 24;162:114555. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.114555. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe standard regimen treatment has improved GBM outcomes, but the survival rate of patients is still unsatisfactory. Temozolomide (TMZ) resistance is one of main reasons limiting the therapeutic efficacy of GBM. However, there are currently no TMZ-sensitizing drugs available in the clinic. Here we aimed to study whether the antidiabetic drug Sitagliptin can inhibit the survival, stemness and autophagy of GBM cells, and thus enhance TMZ cytotoxicity. We used CCK-8, EdU, colony formation, TUNEL and flow cytometry ass...

Exploring temozolomide encapsulated PEGylated Liposomes and Lyotropic liquid crystals for effective treatment of glioblastoma: in-vitro, cell line, and pharmacokinetic studies
Eur J Pharm Biopharm. 2023 Mar 14:S0939-6411(23)00064-4. doi: 10.1016/j.ejpb.2023.03.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTemozolomide (TMZ) is one of the best choices for treating glioblastoma. However, due to the short plasma half-life, only 20-30 % brain bioavailability can be achieved using traditional formulations. In the present study, PEGylated liposomes and lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) were developed and investigated to prolong the plasma circulation time of TMZ. Industrially feasible membrane extrusion and modified hot melt emulsification techniques were utilized during the formulation. Liposomes and LLCs in the...
