Abstract
This research aims to coat Teriflunomide (TEF) loaded conventional nanoliposomes (CON-TEF-LIPO) with Chondroitin sulphate (CS) to produce CS-TEF-LIPO for the effective treatment of Rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Both CON-TEF-LIPO and CS-TEF-LIPO were produced, characterized and evaluated for their active targeting potential towards CD44 receptors. Cell cytotoxicity, cell viability and intracellular uptake study on differentiated U937 and MG-63 cells demonstrated the active targeting of CS-TEF-LIPO towards CD44 receptors. Furthermore, in vivo pharmacodynamic, biochemical, radiological and histopathological studies performed in adjuvant induced arthritic (AIA) rat model showed a significant (P < 0.05) reduction in inflammation in arthritic rat paw in CS-TEF-LIPO group compared to TEF and CON-TEF-LIPO groups. Moreover, liver toxicity study revealed that CS-TEF-LIPO showed no signs of toxicity and biodistribution study revealed the accumulation of CS-TEF-LIPO in synovial region of arthritic rat. Taken together, results suggest that CS-TEF-LIPO could provide a new insight for an effective treatment of RA.Entities:
