In the present study, we fabricated a novel form of quercetin-conjugated Fe3O4–β-cyclodextrin (βCD) nanoparticles (NPs), and the effect of these prepared NPs was evaluated in a chronic model of epilepsy.Methods: Quercetin-loaded NPs were prepared using an iron oxide core coated with βCD and pluronic F68 polymer. The chronic model of epilepsy was developed by intraperitoneal injection of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) at dose of 36.5 mg/kg every second day. Quercetin or its nanoformulation at doses of 25 or 50 mg/kg were administered intraperitoneally 10 days before PTZ injections and their applications continued 1 hour before each PTZ injection. Immunostaining was performed to evaluate the neuronal density and astrocyte activation of hippocampi.Results: Our data showed successful fabrication of quercetin onto Fe3O4–βCD NPs. In comparison to free quercetin, quercetin NPs markedly reduced seizure behavior, neuronal loss, and astrocyte activation in a PTZ-induced kindling model.Conclusion: Overall, quercetin–Fe3O4–βCD NPs might be regarded as an ideal therapeutic approach in epilepsy disorder.Keywords: quercetin, Fe3O4 nanoparticles, anticonvulsant, neuroprotection, astrocyte activationHashemian MGhasemi-Kasman MGhasemi SAkbari AMoalem-Banhangi MZare LAhmadian SRDove Medical PressarticleQuercetinFe3O4 nanoparticlesAnticonvulsantNeuroprotectionAstrocytes activationMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 6481-6495 (2019) |
