Enhanced bioavailability and antihypertensive activity of nisoldipine loaded nanoemulsion : optimization, cytotoxicity and uptake across Caco-2 cell line, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies

Objective: The present study explored the antihypertensive activity of nisoldipine in oil in water nanoemulsion to improve its oral bioavailability via intestinal lymphatic uptake.Methods: Nanoemulsion was prepared by ultrasonication technique using Peceol, Cremophor EL and Transcutol HP as oil, surfactant and cosurfactant respectively. Optimization was done employing 32 full factorial design. The developed formulation was assessed for in vitro,cell line, ex vivo and in vivo studies.Results: The experimental results indicated homogeneity of the nanoemulsion with globule size of 62.35 ± 2.55 nm and PDI value of 0.108 ± 0.01 with negative zeta potential (-26.2 ± 3.6 mV). Transmission electron microscopy showed spherical oil globules morphology. The in vitro diffusion study showed significant increase in drug release from NE formulations (98.51 ± 2.64%) as compared to plain drug dispersion (29.73 ± 2.15%) in 0.1 N HCl + 0.5% SLS medium. Moreover, higher quantitative and qualitative uptake of nanoemulsion via Caco-2 cells showed superior intestinal absorption and improved therapeutic activity of nisoldipine when compared to drug dispersion. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study confirmed significantly (p ˂ 0.05) greater bioavailability and antihypertensive activity of nisoldipine nanoemulsion when compared to its dispersion. These results are visualized in abstract figure.Conclusion: Thus, prepared nanoemulsion showed potential as oral delivery system for nisoldipine with superior oral bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy over drug dispersion.
