Özet

6-Mercaptopurine (6-MCP) is an antiproliferative purine analog used in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis). Although 6-MCP has the great therapeutic potential for cancer and immunosuppressant-related diseases, 6-MCP is not readily soluble in water, presents a high first-pass effect, short half-life (0.5-1.5 h), and implies a low bioavailability (16%). On the contrary, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) are prepared from solid lipids at room temperature and body temperature. In this study, SLNs were prepared w/o/w double emulsion-solvent evaporation method using Precirol ATO5 as matrix lipid. In the emulsion stabilization, surfactant (Tween 80) and polymeric stabilizer (polyvinyl alcohol [PVA]) were used. Two group formulations using Tween 80 and PVA were compared in terms of particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential encapsulation efficiency%, and process yield%. Differential calorimetric analysis and release properties were examined for optimum formulation, and release kinetics were calculated. According to studies, sustained release was obtained with SLNs by the Korsmayer-Peppas kinetic model. The in vitro cytotoxicity studies were performed on the hepatocarcinoma (HEP3G) cell line. According to the results, successful SLN formulations were produced, and PVA was found best stabilizer. Optimum formulation exhibited significantly higher cytotoxic effects on HEP3G than on pure 6-MCP. These results demonstrated that solid lipid nanodrug delivery systems have great potential for formulation of 6-MCP.
