Smart nanocarrier based on PEGylated hyaluronic acid for deacetyl mycoepoxydience: High stability with enhanced bioavailability and efficiency

Deacetyl mycoepoxydience (DM) nanocrystals core were stabilized by the folate modified distearoylphosphatidyl ethanolamine-polyethylene glycol (DSPE-PEG(2000)-FA) as the active-targeting stabilizer and D-a-tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) as the reversion of multidrug resistance stabilizer, respectively. The DM nanocrystals was acted as the core and shelled by the polyethylene glycol-hyaluronic acid (PEG-HA). The optimal core-shell system demonstrated superior stability at 4 degrees C for 6 weeks by the stability study and higher dissolution velocity. Cytotoxicity in vitro and cell proliferation inhibition was evaluated by MCF-7 cells line. Furthermore, the core-shell nanocrystals revealed a concentration-and time-dependent cytotoxicity activity and enhanced the cell proliferation inhibition. Pharmacokinetic studies in rabbits showed coreshelled DM nanocrystals significantly increased AUC and t(1/2) and reduced CLz compared to the DM solution for intravenous delivery. Results indicated that core-shell nanocrystals nanogel was successfully established with higher stability and the bioavailability of DM with higher safety was improved.
