MFTC’s chemical structure was evaluated by nuclear magnetic resonance. The created hydrophobic prodrug nanocrystals were encased into a poloxamer surfactant and the pharmacokinetics (PK), biodistribution and antiretroviral activities of the nanoformulation (NMFTC) were assessed. The conversion of MFTC to FTC triphosphates was evaluated.Results: MFTC coated with poloxamer formed stable nanocrystals (NMFTC). NMFTC demonstrated an average particle size, polydispersity index and zeta potential of 350 nm, 0.24 and −20 mV, respectively. Drug encapsulation efficiency was 90%. NMFTC was readily taken up by human monocyte-derived macrophages yielding readily detected intracellular FTC triphosphates and an extended PK profile.Conclusion: NMFTC shows improved antiretroviral activities over native FTC. This is coordinate with its extended apparent half-life. The work represents an incremental advance in the development of a long-acting FTC formulation.Keywords: palmitoyl chloride, viral reservoirs, long-acting antiretrovirals, human immunodeficiency virus type 1, monocyte-derived macrophageIbrahim IMBade ANLin ZSoni DWojtkiewicz MDyavar Shetty BLGautam NMcMillan JMAlnouti YEdagwa BJGendelman HEDove Medical PressarticlePalmitoyl chlorideviral reservoirslong-acting antiretroviralshuman immunodeficiency virus type 1and monocyte-derived macrophageMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 6231-6247 (2019) |
