目的 研究双氢青蒿素(dihydroartemisinin,DHA)自微乳给药系统(self-microemulsion drug delivery system,SMEDDS)(DHA-SMEDDS)的处方与制备工艺,并对其进行评价。方法 通过溶解度实验、油相与乳化剂和助乳化剂配伍实验及伪三元相图的绘制,筛选DHA-SMEDDS的处方组成;以平均粒径、载药量为评价指标,采用星点设计-效应面法优化处方,并对DHA-SMEDDS的理化性质、初步稳定性进行评价。考察DHA-SMEDDS在马丁达比犬肾上皮MDCK细胞模型中促渗机制。结果 优化后的DHA-SMEDDS处方中油相为辛癸酸甘油酯(15%)、乳化剂为聚氧乙烯40蓖麻油(46.4%)、混合助乳化剂为无水乙醇(24.12%)和聚乙二醇400(14.48%)。所得自微乳外观均一透明,自乳化后平均粒径(24.55±0.18)nm,多分散性指数(PDI)为0.092±0.028,电位为(-3.16±0.14)mV,载药量为(9.64±0.01)mg/g,包封率为(99.67±0.10)%,乳化时间为(13.90±0.10)s。初步稳定性实验表明,DHA-SMEDDS应常温避光保存。DHA-SMEDDS可以打开细胞间的紧密连接蛋白,降低细胞膜电位,增加细胞通透性,增强Ca2+-ATP酶活性。结论 DHA-SMEDDS制备工艺简单,外观良好,乳化效率高,有望提高DHA的口服生物利用度。

Objective To study the formulation and preparation technology of dihydroartemisinin self-microemulsion drug delivery system (DHA-SMEDDS) and evaluate it. Methods The formulation of DHA-SMEDDS was screened by solubility test, oil phase with emulsifier and co-emulsifier compatibility experiment and pseudo ternary phase diagram drawing. Taking the mean particle size and drug loading as evaluation indexes, the formulation was optimized by central composite design-response surface methodology, and the physicochemical properties and initial stability of DHA-SMEDDS were evaluated. The mechanism of promoting infiltration of DHA-SMEDDS in MDCK cell model was investigated. Results In the optimized DHA-SMEDDS formulation, the oil phase was caprylic capric triglycerride (15%), the emulsifier was polyoxyethylene 40 castor oil (46.4%), the mixed co-emulsifier was anhydrous ethanol (24.12%) and polyethylene glycol 400 (14.48%). The prepared self-microemulsion had uniform and transparent appearance. The average particle size after self-emulsification was (24.55 ±0.18) nm, PDI was (0.092 ±0.028), potential was (−3.16 ±0.14) mV, the drug loading was (9.64 ±0.01) mg/g, the entrapment efficiency was (99.67 ±0.10)%, and emulsifying time was (13.90 ±0.10) s. Preliminary stability experiments showed that DHA-SMEDDS should be stored at low temperature and away from light. DHA-SMEDDS can open tight junction proteins between cells, decrease cell membrane potential, increase cell permeability, and enhance Ca2+-ATPase activity. Conclusion DHA-SMEDDS has the advantages of simple preparation process, good appearance and high emulsifying efficiency, which is expected to improve the oral bioavailability of DHA.
