Differences in the permeation of Licoricchalcone A-polysaccharide self-assembled nanoparticles on healthy and DNCB-induced atopic dermatitis in Balb/c mice.

Nanoformulation have been widely used in skin and transdermal drug delivery. However, the differences in integral nanoparticles absorption in healthy and diseased skin have not yet fully analyzed. The present study attempted to explore the percutaneous absorption of drugs via lesional skin by using atopic dermatitis (AD) as a model, dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) induced AD-like skin.

[Preparation and intestinal absorption mechanism of self-assembled nanoparticles of Herpetospermum caudigerum].

In this experiment, the micro-precipitation method was used to prepare self-assembled nanoparticles of Herpetospermum caudigerum Wall.(MP-SAN). The process was optimized using average particle size and polydispersity index(PDI)as evaluation indexes.

Characterization of herpetrione amorphous nanoparticles stabilized by hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose and its absorption mechanism in vitro.

Herpetrione(HPE) is an effective compound that has been used in the treatment of liver diseases. To improve its dissolution and absorption, herpetrione nanosuspensions was prepared. Nanosuspensions were proved to achieve intact absorption in vivo.

Herpetetrone nanosuspensions enhance drug solubility and bioavailability to improve anti-hepatic fibrosis effects.

The aim of this study was to enhance the dissolution rate and oral bioavailability of herpetetrone (HPT) by preparing nanosuspensions (NSs) and evaluate the changes in its anti-hepatic fibrosis effect. Herpetetrone nanosuspension (HPT-NS) was prepared using the ultrasound-precipitation technique, and characterised on the basis of mean diameter, zeta potential (ZP), encapsulation efficiency percent (EE%), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). In addition, the pharmacokinetics and anti-hepatic fibrosis activity were evaluated.

[Separation, characterization and anti-psoriasis effect of self-assembled nanoparticles from Shaoyao Gancao Decoction].

This study aims to separate and characterize self-assembled nanoparticles(SAN) from Shaoyao Gancao Decoction(SGD) and determine the content of active compounds. Further, we aimed to observe the therapeutic effect of SGD-SAN on imiquimod-induced psoriasis in mice. The separation of SGD was performed by dialysis, and the separation process was optimized by single factor experiment.

Exploring the translocation behaviours of herpetrione amorphous nanoparticles via oral delivery.

Nanotechnology has been a primary strategy to enhance oral bioavailability of poorly water soluble drugs. However, the limited information fate of impedes the development of nanoparticles the oral delivery, especially the amorphous nanoparticles with high energy states are rarely reported. This study is to track the translocation of oral herpetrione amorphous nanoparticles (HPE-ANPs).

Development of herpetrione nanosuspensions stabilized by glycyrrhizin for enhancing bioavailability and synergistic hepatoprotective effect.

The objective of this study was to develop novel herpetrione (HPE) nanosuspensions stabilized by glycyrrhizin (HPE NSs/GL) for enhancing bioavailability and hepatoprotective effect of HPE. HPE NSs/GL were prepared by wet media milling method and then systemically evaluated by particle size analysis, scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), dissolution test, pharmacokinetics, and hepatoprotective effect. HPE-NSs stabilized by poloxamer 407 (HPE NSs/P407) were also prepared and used as a reference for comparison.
