Background: Paclitaxel (PTX) is a potent anticancer drug which is highly effective against several cancers. Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) loaded with anticancer drugs can enhance its toxicity against tumor cells at low concentrations. Objective: To develop and characterize SLNs of PTX (PSLN) to enhance its toxicity against cancerous cells. Method: The solubility of PTX was screened in various lipids. Solid lipid nanoparticles of PTX (PSLN) were developed by hot homogenization method using Cutina HR and Gelucire 44/14 as lipid carriers and Solutol HS 15 as a surfactant. PSLNs were characterized for size, morphology, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency, physical state of the drug and in vitro release profile in 7.4 pH phosphate buffer saline (PBS). The ability of PTX to enhance toxicity towards cancerous cells was tested by performing cytoxicity assay in MCF7 cell line. Results: Solubility studies of PTX in lipids indicated better solubility when Cutina HR and Gelucire 44/14 were used. PSLNs were found to possess a neutral zeta potential with a size range of 155.4 ± 10.7 nm to 641.9 ± 4.2 nm. In vitro release studies showed a sustained release profile for PSLN over a period of 48 hours. SLNs loaded with PTX were found to be more toxic in killing MCF7 cells at a lower concentration than the free PTX.

The aim of the current study was to evaluate the therapeutics potential of eluxadoline (ELX) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) in ulcerative colitis. ELX loaded SLNs were prepared using three different lipids according to the solvent emulsification technique. The optimization of prepared SLNs (F1-F3) were carried out based on size, PDI, zeta potential, percent drug entrapment (%EE), and loading (%DL). The lipid (stearic acid) based SLNs (F2) was optimized with particle size (266.0 ± 6.4 nm), PDI (0.217 ± 0.04), zeta potential (31.2 ± 5.19 mV), EE (65.0 ± 4.8%), and DL (4.60 ± 0.8%). The optimized SLNs (F2) was further evaluated by DSC, FTIR, SEM, in vitro release, and stability studies, which confirmed the successful encapsulation of ELX in SLNs. The efficacy of optimized SLNs (F2) in comparison to the pure ELX drug was assessed in acetic acid induced colitis rat models. It was observed that the delivery of ELX by SLNs alleviated the induced acetic acid colitis significantly. Thus, ELX loaded SLNs delivery to the colon has a significant potential to be developed for the treatment of ulcerative colitis.

Abstract In the current research, the main focus was to overcome dermal delivery problems of atorvastatin. To this end, atorvastatin solid lipid nanoparticles (ATR-SLNs) were prepared by ultra-sonication technique. The prepared SLNs had a PDI value of ≤ 0.5, and the particle size of nanoparticles was in the range 71.07 ± 1.72 to 202.07 ± 8.40 nm. It was noticed that, when the concentration of lipid in ATR-SLNs increased, the size of nanoparticles and drug entrapment efficiency were also increased. Results showed that a reduction in the HLB of surfactants used in the preparation of SLN caused an increase in the particle size, zeta potential (better stability), and drug entrapment efficiency. Despite Tween and Span are non-ionic surfactants, SLNs containing these surfactants showed a negative zeta potential, and the absolute zeta potential increased when the concentration of Span 80 was at maximum. DSC thermograms, FTIR spectra, and x-ray diffraction (PXRD) pattern showed good incorporation of ATR in the nanoparticles without any chemical interaction. In vitro skin permeation results showed that SLN containing atorvastatin was capable of enhancing the dermal delivery of atorvastatin where a higher concentration of atorvastatin can be detected in skin layers. This is a hopeful promise which could be developed for clinical studies of the dermal delivery of atorvastatin nanoparticles as an anti-inflammatory agent.

Objective: Tween 80 has been used as a solvent for the extraction of phenolic compounds because this surfactant has both hydrophilic and hydrophobicproperties. Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) have been developed to improve penetration through the skin layer. We investigated the efficacy of usingthe microwave-assisted micellar extraction (MAME) approach for extracting oxyresveratrol from Morus alba roots and also to develop an SLN lotion.Methods: The M. alba roots were extracted with Tween 80 in a microwave for 18 min, and the extract was used to develop SLN with differentconcentrations of glyceryl monostearate. The SLNs from M. alba root extracts were prepared by a high-speed homogenization technique (25,000 rpmfor 15 min). The SLNs produced were characterized as per particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), and zeta potential. The SLNs with the bestcharacteristics were used to formulate a lotion using a high-pressure homogenizer.Results: Extraction using MAME showed improved extraction efficiency. The oxyresveratrol concentration from the extract was 2.77%. The SLN with2.5% glyceryl monostearate showed the optimum result, with a particle size of 130.20 nm, a PDI of 0.278, and a zeta potential of −21.8 mV. The SLNlotion exhibited a particle size of 285.9 nm and a PDI of 0.360.

Cisplatin (Cis diaminedichloro platinum) was the first platinum drug to be used as an anticancer drug, and it is widely used in the treatment of testicular, head, neck, ovarian and lung cancer. The use of Cisplatin is limited due to its intrinsic and acquired resistance and severe side effects such as chronic neurotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. The colloidal carriers such as emulsion, liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles have been extensively studied to overcome above limitations. The solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs), amongst other colloidal carriers, were found to be an ideal carrier for lipophillic drug for better stability and release retardation. Cisplatin loaded solid lipid nanoparticles was prepared by microemulsion technique. Stearic acid was used as lipid.

Zidovudine is one of the chief nucleoside analogue and reverse inhibitor licensed for HIV infection which is placed along with a group of retroviruses. The present research study on Zidovudine solid dosage form surveyed the feasibility utilizing solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) for controlled drug delivery of zidovudine embracing glyceryl behenate as lipidic material, tween 80 as a stabilizer and blend of sodium chelate with poloxamer as surfactant. The SLNs were prepared utilizing high pressure homogenization followed by ultrasonication method. The prepared SLNs were characterized by particle size analysis, polydispersity index, zeta potential, DSC, TEM, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray diffractometry. Narrow size distribution of the particles was marked having polydispersity index values under 0.8. The high zeta potential of the different SLN formulations additionally showed their physical stability. Differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffraction showed decline in crystallinity of drug in the nanoparticle formulation. In vitro release study showed sustained release for up to 12 hours in the SLN formulations prepared. The current study results revealed that zidovudine SLN formulation prepared by high pressure homogenization followed by ultrasonication is a suitable method for controlled drug delivery system.
