Título: | Oral Bioavailability of Insulin Contained in Polysaccharide Nanoparticles | Autor: | Sarmento, Bruno Ribeiro, António Veiga, Francisco Ferreira, Domingos Neufeld, Ronald |
Data: | 8-Out-2007 | Editora: | American Chemical Society | Citação: | Biomacromolecules. 8:10 (2007) 3054-3060 | Resumo: | The pharmacological activity of insulin-loaded dextran sulfate/chitosan nanoparticles was evaluated following oral dosage in diabetic rats. Nanoparticles were mucoadhesive and negatively charged with a mean size of 500 nm, suitable for uptake within the gastrointestinal tract. Insulin association efficiency was over 70% and was released in a pH-dependent manner under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Orally delivered nanoparticles lowered basal serum glucose levels in diabetic rats around 35% with 50 and 100 IU/kg doses sustaining hypoglycemia over 24 h. Pharmacological availability was 5.6 and 3.4% for the 50 and 100 IU/kg doses, respectively, a significant increase over 1.6%, determined for oral insulin alone in solution. Confocal microscopic examinations of FITC-labeled insulin nanoparticles showed adhesion to rat intestinal epithelium, and internalization of insulin within the intestinal mucosa. Encapsulation of insulin into dextran sulfate/chitosan nanoparticles was a key factor in the improvement of the bioavailability of its oral delivery over insulin solution. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/10566 | ISSN: | 1525-7797 | DOI: | 10.1021/bm0703923 | Direitos: | openAccess |
