Popis: Electrospraying (ES) technology is considered an efficient micro/nanoparticle fabrication technique with controlled dimensions and diverse morphology. Gelurice® 48/16 (GLR) has been employed to stabilize the aqueous dispersion of Celecoxib (CXB) for enhancing its solubility and oral bioavailability. Our formula is composed of CXB loaded in polyvinylpyllodine (PVP) stabilized with GLR to formulate microparticles (MPs) (CXB-GLR-PVP MPs). CXB-GLR-PVP MPs display excellent in vitro properties regarding particle size (548 ± 10.23 nm), zeta potential (−20.21 ± 2.45 mV), and drug loading (DL, 1.98 ± 0.059 mg per 10 mg MPs). CXB-GLR-PVP MPs showed a significant (p < 0.05) higher % cumulative release after ten minutes (50.31 ± 4.36) compared to free CXB (10.63 ± 2.89). CXB exhibited good dispersibility, proved by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), adequate compatibility of all components, confirmed by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and spherical geometry as revealed in scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Concerning our anti-inflammatory study, there was a significant decrease in the scores of the inflammatory markers’ immunostaining in the CXB-GLR-PVP MPs treated group. Also, the amounts of the oxidative stress biomarkers, as well as mRNA expression of interleukins (IL-1β and IL-6), considerably declined (p < 0.05) in CXB-GLR-PVP MPs treated group alongside an enhancement in the histological features was revealed. CXB-GLR-PVP MPs is an up-and-coming delivery system that could be elucidated in future clinical investigations.
