Isoniazid (INH) is amongst the first-line antibiotics that have been employed for the treatment of Tuberculosis (TB). Despite its potent anti-tubercular action, susceptibility to rapid hepatic first-pass metabolism and elimination largely limits its oral bioavailability, and has been associated with the induction of drug resistance and adverse effects. This presents study aims at the development and evaluation of unique mannosylated INH loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (Mn-INH-SLNs) for the treatment of TB. The Mn-INH-SLNs demonstrated a particle size of 466 ± 11 nm, which was acceptable for macrophage targeting and had % entrapment efficiency of 80.41 ± 1.37% (n = 6). The dissolution studies depicted a dual-phase drug release profile, i.e., burst release followed by a sustained release, revealing the best fit with the Korsmeyer-Peppas model. The MTT assay (cytotoxicity study) performed utilizing J774A.1 cells with optimized Mn-INH-SLNs deemed them to be safe and nontoxic. Mannosylated SLNs tagged with coumarin-6 (C6 – an established fluorescent marker) showed a substantially high intracellular internalization (1.11-folds) when analyzed through flow cytometric analysis (FACS). The in vivo pharmacokinetic evaluation following per-oral administration in rats demonstrated a significant rise in relative bioavailability (∼5.5-folds) with Mn-INH-SLNs compared to pure drug solution. The bio-distribution (drug disposition) studies exhibited greater lung accumulation of Mn-INH-SLNs (2.13-folds) in comparison to the unconjugated INH-SLNs (Un-INH-SLNs). The promising results of the study depict that the targeted-optimized Mn-INH-SLNs may be a propitious and potent tool to fight TB. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
