Popis: The lipophilic character of peptides can be tremendously improved by hydrophobic ion pairing (HIP) with counterions to be efficiently incorporated into lipid-based nanocarriers (NCs). Herein, HIPs of exenatide with the cationic surfactant tetraheptylammonium bromide (THA) and the anionic surfactant sodium docusate (DOC) were formed to increase its lipophilicity. These HIPs were incorporated into lipid based NCs comprising 41% Capmul MCM, 15% Captex 355, 40% Cremophor RH and 4% propylene glycol. Exenatide-THA NCs showed a log Dlipophilic phase (LPh)/release medium (RM) of 2.29 and 1.92, whereas the log DLPh/RM of exenatide-DOC was 1.2 and −0.9 in simulated intestinal fluid and Hanks’ balanced salts buffer (HBSS), respectively. No significant hemolytic activity was induced at a concentration of 0.25% (m/v) of both blank and loaded NCs. Exenatide-THA NCs and exenatide-DOC NCs showed a 10-fold and 3-fold enhancement in intestinal apparent membrane permeability compared to free exenatide, respectively. Furthermore, orally administered exenatide-THA and exenatide-DOC NCs in healthy rats resulted in a relative bioavailability of 27.96 ± 5.24% and 16.29 ± 6.63%, respectively, confirming the comparatively higher potential of the cationic surfactant over the anionic surfactant. Findings of this work highlight the potential of the type of counterion used for HIP as key to successful design of lipid-based NCs for oral exenatide delivery.
