Acetylcholinesterase (AChE)

ln Vitro |
Nerve agents (NA) are chemical warfare munitions and their exposure causes a progressive inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). This inhibition causes NA-induced brain damage in central nervous system (CNS). Oximes reactivate AChE in both the peripheral nervous system and the CNS. Transport of the oxime across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in the existed therapeutic concentrations at the brain parenchyma determines the effectiveness of antidote therapy on respiratory depression and NA-induced brain damage. However, oximes could not cross the BBB in therapeutic concentrations. The aim of this study was to load AChE reactivator obidoxime chloride to PLGA and PEG-b-PLGA nanoparticles and to improve the BBB transport of the molecule. Brain microvascular endothelial cells were used as the BBB model. 79.3 ± 4.2% of obidoxime was released from PLGA nanoparticles and 88.2 ± 4.4% of obidoxime was released from PEG-b-PLGA nanoparticles within 24 h. It was found that PEG-b-PLGA nanoparticles were ideal drug carrier because of its low tissue toxicity, few side effects, and controllable drug release profile. Transport efficiency of obidoxime across the BBB is a major challenge in the prevention of the CNS, the effectiveness of NA poisoning and new strategies like using obidoxime-loaded PEG-b-PLGA nanoparticles could overcome this challenge for the management of NA-induced brain damage[2].

In vitro drug release studies
For determining the amount of obidoxime released from the nanoparticles in vitro, a dynamic dialysis bag diffusion technique was used. PLGA and PEG-b-PLGA nanoparticles which contained 0.3 mg obidoxime, were placed in the dialysis bag (diameter 1 cm, molecular weight cut-off 12−14 kDa) which was containing 1 mL of isotonic phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.4), respectively. The dialysis bag which was filled with the nanosuspension was immersed into 30 mL isotonic phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.4) and then it was incubated in a water-bath shaker at 37 °C with constant orbital mixing at 30 rpm. At specified predetermined time intervals (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24 h), an aliquot of the release medium (1 mL) was removed from the receptor compound and the removed liquid was replaced with fresh medium. The obidoxime concentrations of the aliquots were determined by using HPLC as described above, and the cumulative amount of obidoxime which released from the nanoparticles was calculated. The cumulative percentage of released obidoxime was plotted versus time. Each data point (SD) is the average of three consecutive[1].

Colorimetric cell viability via MTT assay[1]
The cell viability of BMVEC lines after adding obidoxime solution, obidoxime-loaded PLGA and PEG-b-PLGA nanoparticles was measured by MTT (Danhier et al., 2009). For the assay, the cells were seeded into 96-well plates at the density of 3 × 104 cells/cm2. Cells were incubated until they were approximately 70–80% confluent. Obidoxime solutions (10 mM, 2.5 mM, 1 mM, 0.25 mM and 0.1 mM) and nanoparticles containing 0.1−10 mM obidoxime were added to the cells in 96-well plates and they were incubated for 24, 48, and 72 h. After the incubation, 20 μL of the medium containing MTT was added to each well and the plates were shaken for 60 s. The absorbance of each plate was measured by using a microplate reader at 550 and 690 nm. The medium was also used as a positive control. The untreated controls were also measured for the determination of 100% cell viability in each plate. Cell-monolayer permeation studies[1] For the BBB transport experiments, BMVEC were plated on transwell filters (polycarbonate 12 well, pore size 0.4 μm; Millipore) in a density of 3 × 104 cells/cm2. Twenty-four hour before each transport experiment, the medium was replaced with the fresh one. For checking the existence of junctions and confluent monolayer, the cell monolayer was periodically inspected under a microscope and the transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) was measured with EVOMX Epithelial Volt-Ohm meter, World Precision Instruments. The transport was estimated by placing obidoxime solution or obidoxime-loaded PLGA and PEG-b-PLGA nanoparticles on the upper side of the monolayers and measuring obidoxime in the well media at various time intervals (30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 min). The obidoxime concentrations of the aliquots were determined by HPLC as described above, and the cumulative amount of obidoxime permeated from the cell monolayer was calculated. |
