Palmitoyl Derivatives of Interferon α: Potential for Cutaneous Delivery

Abstract: Palmitoyl derivatives of interferon alpha2b (p-IFNalpha) were prepared by covalent attachment of the fatty acid to lysine residues in the protein through a reaction with N-hydroxysuccinimide palmitate ester. The p-IFNalpha was characterized by capillary electrophoresis (CE), mass spectrometry (MS), SDS-PAGE, and antiviral assay. Flow-through diffusion cells and human breast skins were used to measure cutaneous and percutaneous absorption. Formation of p-IFNalpha derivatives was demonstrated by CE to be depende… Show more

“…CE was used for the study of palmitoyl derivatization of interferon-α 2b (p-IFN-α). (359) The derivative was prepared by covalent attachment of the fatty acid to lysine residues in the protein through a reaction with Nhydroxysuccinimide palmitate (NHSP) ester (Scheme 3). The first step involved the preparation of an intermediate NHSP, which in turn was reacted with IFN-α.…”

“…In this regard, chemical acylation using fatty acids (e.g., palmitic and myristic) to enhance drug's binding to serum albumin, yielding higher blood circulation time, has been documented. Fatty acylation has also been known to increase interferon-alpha delivery into human skin (Foldvari et al 1998(Foldvari et al , 1999.…”

“…Various derivatives of peptides such as vasoactive intestinal peptide [159], palmitoyl derivative of IFN-alpha were evaluated. When palmitoyl derivative of IFN-alpha was administered to human breast skin absorption was increased by eightfold compared to the parent peptide, suggesting that this approach may be useful for topical delivery of macromolecules [160,161].…”
