Abstract

28

We present an improved type of food gum (salecan) based hydrogels for oral

29

delivery of insulin. Structural hydrogel formation was assessed with Fourier transform

30

infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction. We found

31

that the hydrogel modulus, morphology, and swelling properties can be controlled by

32

varying the salecan dose during hydrogel formation. Insulin was introduced into the

33

hydrogel using a swelling–diffusion approach and then further used a drug prototype.

34

In vitro insulin release profiles demonstrated that the release of entrapped insulin was

35

suppressed in acidic conditions, but markedly increased at neutral pH. Cell viability

36

and toxicity tests revealed that the salecan hydrogel constructs were biocompatible.

37

Oral administration of insulin-loaded salecan hydrogels in diabetic rats resulted in a

38

sustained decrease of fasting plasma glucose levels over 6 h post-administration. For

39

non-diabetic animals, the relative pharmacological bioavailability of insulin was

40

significantly larger (6.24%, p85.5% of its absorbed

534

water after 600 min, while SH1, SH2, SH3 and SH4 lost 90.0%, 95.6%, 97.3% and

535

98.2% of their water at this time point, respectively. Generally speaking , gel

536

composed of more salecan polysaccharide had a stronger affinity for water molecules,

537

which can act as water-releasing channels when collapse occurred, thus benefiting for

538

the removal of water.29, 45

539

3.2.7.5 Erosion assay

540

Table S3 (supporting information) shows the results of erosion test of

541

salecan/PMA hydrogel samples at pH 7.4 buffers. As presented in Table S3, gels

542

containing more salecan had high level of erosion, with values of 5.33 ± 1.55%, 6.58

543

± 1.78%, 7.35 ± 2.01%, 8.17 ± 2.12% and 9.67 ± 1.88% for PMA, SH1, SH2, SH3

544

and SH4 after 12h in buffers at 37 °C, respectively. This phenomenon can be

545

explained by the incorporation of salecan that decreases the stiffness of hydrogel

546

matrix and enhances the susceptibility of polymer chains, thereby benefiting the

547

erosion.46

548 549

3.3 Cytotoxicity of salecan/PMA hydrogels

550

Cytotoxicity is an indispensable consideration for a drug delivery carrier

551

design.47 To serve as safe carrier for drug delivery, the carrier itself needs to possess a

552

proper biocompatibility.48 In vitro cytotoxicity assay was performed using a cell

553

staining assay (Figure 6). Hoechst 33342 dye labels nuclei of all cells present, while

554

PI only stains nuclei of dead cells.49 As shown in Figure 6, few cells incubated with

555

salecan/PMA hydrogels exhibited uptake of PI with no differences compared to the

556

negative control. These findings were further corroborated by an MTT assay

557

according to the ISO 10993-5 protocol as reference for biomaterial testing50 (Figure

558

7A). After 72 h of cultivation with different extracts of salecan/PMA hydrogels, the

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

559

cell viability of treated 9L, HCT116 and MC38 cells was similar to untreated controls

560

(>90%). MTT and cell staining assays suggested that the designed hydrogel was cell

561

compatible, implying that the salecan/PMA hydrogels were suitable candidates for in

562

vivo applications.

3.4 In vitro and in vivo insulin delivery

573

3.4.1 In vitro insulin delivery

574

We employed insulin, a widely used therapeutic agent for treatment of diabetes,

575

as a model drug to assess the release characteristics of the PMA and salecan/PMA

576

hydrogels. Insulin was incorporated into the PMA and salecan/PMA polymeric

577

network by swelling-diffusion strategy.7 The gel-loaded insulin content was acquired

578

by subtracting the remaining insulin amount in the incubation solution from the initial

579

added amount used for loading.47 It can be observed from Figure 7B that the insulin

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

580

loading efficiency (ILE) of PMA was 27.5%. Moreover, an increase in salecan content

581

from 0.7 mL to 2.8 mL enhanced the ILE from 30.3% to 60.8%, as a result of a larger

582

WU of the semi-IPN architecture.51 On the one hand, the increase in the number of

583

salecan molecules contributes to increased water uptake by the hydrogel, promoting

584

the penetration of external insulin into the interior of the hydrogel. On the other hand,

585

the semi-IPN architecture helps preventing the collapse of the insulin-loaded hydrogel

586

during the desiccation process.51

587

To determine the in vitro release curves of insulin from PMA and salecan/PMA

588

hydrogel specimens, experiments were conducted in simulated intestinal fluid

589

(pH=7.4) and gastric fluid (pH=1.3). The amount of released insulin was

590

pH-dependent (Figure 7C, 7D). At 24 h, the cumulative insulin release at pH=1.3 was

591

19.7%, 21.5%, 26.9%, 32.7%, and 36.2% for PMA, SH1, SH2, SH3, and SH4,

592

respectively, while at pH=7.4 these values were 32.1%, 49.4%, 59.3%, 65.6%, and

593

74.5%. The higher release at pH=7.4 can be expected, as this is above the pKa value

594

of PAA (4.3)41 and the isoelectric point of insulin (5.4)52. Here, the stronger

595

electrostatic repulsion between the negatively charged insulin and the negatively

596

charged carboxyl groups of the PAA segment in the PMA hydrogel facilitates the

597

release of insulin. At the low pH value (pH=1.3), the hydrogen bonding interactions

598

between the protonated carboxylic groups of the PAA might preserve the hydrogel

599

network in a compact collapsed state, preventing the release of insulin.3

600

In addition to the effect of pH on drug release, we also noted that the total salecan

601

content in the gel significantly (p

603

report confirmed that the drug release properties of the hydrogel are increase with the

604

water uptake.53

605

major hurdles preventing the success of oral delivery of insulin are overcoming the

606

enzymatic degradation in the stomach.55,

607

have desirable insulin release features when orally administered, as it can initiate and

608

maintain a low release in the acidic stomach at pH=1.3, while an accelerated release is

609

triggered in the intestinal environment (pH=7.4).

Insulin is susceptible to biodegradation and denaturation.1, 54 The

612

Finally, we assessed the pharmacokinetics and therapeutic effects of orally

613

administered insulin-loaded salecan/PMA semi-IPN hydrogels in STZ-induced

614

diabetic rats. SH4 hydrogel was selected for its optimal pH-dependent release

615

behavior, where the hydrogel protects the insulin from the harsh stomach conditions

616

and only effectively releases insulin in the small intestine environment. Figure 8A

617

shows the time course of blood glucose level following oral administration of

618

insulin-free and insulin-loaded hydrogels, as compared to s.c. injection of saline or

619

pure insulin. No therapeutic effect (absence of hypoglycemia) could be noticed after

620

oral administration of free insulin and s.c. injection of saline. For the animals given a

621

s.c. injection of free insulin, blood glucose levels quickly dropped achieving a

622

minimum of 36.0% at 2 h after injection after which the blood glucose returned to

623

previous levels. This outcome is in agreement with the short half-life of insulin in

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

624

blood.7 Animals treated with different dosages of insulin-loaded hydrogel exhibited

625

dosage-dependent blood glucose changes. Two hours after administration, blood

626

glucose gradually declined to 82.1% and 78.7% after administration of 25 and 50

627

IU/kg insulin-loaded SH4 gel, respectively. Unlike the rats injected with insulin s.c.,

628

hypoglycemia persisted for longer time periods, in agreement with the slower insulin

629

release observed in vitro, with a maximum effect at 4-6 h after administration. The

630

rPA (%) of insulin for orally administering insulin-loaded hydrogel was calculated to

631

be 5.02%, much larger than that of orally administering free insulin (0.48%). It is

632

noteworthy that the rPA (%) of the salecan/PMA semi-IPN hydrogels (5.02%) is

633

comparable to that of recently reported hydrogel-based vehicles regarding the in-vivo

634

sustained release of insulin, such as carboxymethyl cellulose/poly(acrylic acid)

635

(6.35%)7 and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-β-methyl acrylic acid) hydrogels

636

(4.77%)3.

637

In order to further measure the bioavailability parameters of orally administered

638

insulin-loaded hydrogels, the intestinal uptake of insulin was assessed by measuring

639

plasma insulin levels in non-diabetic rats (Figure 8B). S.c. injection of insulin

640

triggered a rapid increase in plasma insulin peaking at 63.4 mIU per ml, followed by a

641

gradual reduction after 1 h. In contrast, animals receiving insulin-loaded hydrogels

642

showed a more gradual increase in plasma insulin, reaching a maximum of 11.7 mIU

643

per ml 4 h post-administration. A similar time course of insulin delivery from other

644

types of hydrogels has been observed by others.3,

645

4 Conclusions

656

A series of smart salecan-incorporated semi-IPN hydrogels comprised of a soft

657

segment of salecan and a high strength network of poly(acrylamide-co-acrylic acid)

658

were created using a free radical polymerization approach. These hydrogels displayed

659

excellent stability, rapid response rate, high elasticity, and good biocompatibility. In

660

vitro insulin release assay demonstrated that the entrapped insulin is protected within

661

the hydrogel matrix under acidic conditions, with a selective release at neutral pH

662

values. The release of insulin can be properly controlled by simply varying the

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

663

salecan content in the hydrogel composition. Cell viability assays showed that

664

salecan/PMA hydrogels were non-toxic. Orally administered insulin-loaded

665

salecan/PMA hydrogels to diabetic rats resulted in a successive decrease of blood

666

glucose levels, and exhibited a greater than 10-fold rise in pharmacological

667

availability compared to free insulin solution given orally. The present findings

668

demonstrate that salecan-based hydrogels loaded with insulin have potential for

669

controlled delivery of insulin following oral administration.
