Rational Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of γ-CD-Containing Cross-Linked Polyvinyl Alcohol Hydrogel as a Prednisone Delivery Platform

Abstract: This study describes the in-silico rational design, synthesis and evaluation of cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol hydrogels containing γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CDHSAs) as platforms for the sustained release of prednisone (PDN). Through in-silico studies using semi-empirical quantum mechanical calculations, the effectiveness of 20 dicarboxylic acids to generate a specific cross-linked hydrogel capable of supporting different amounts of γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) was evaluated. According to the interaction energies calculated … Show more

“…In view of these traits, many studies have shown that CDs and their derivatives as drug carriers or pharmaceutical formulations improve the stability, solubility, and bioavailability of drugs [51,52]. CD-based inclusion complexes or polymers have been widely investigated in drug-loading experiments, but they have certain drawbacks with inorganic/organic materials, such as low drug-loading capacity and burst release [53,54,55,56]. Inspired by these works, Smaldone et al [57] reported the first example of a cubic CD-MOF-K (called CD-MOF-1) that was prepared in aqueous media at ambient temperature and pressure.…”

“…These simulations were carried out in an isothermal–isobaric (NPT) ensemble for a period of 100 ns. To carry out relaxation of the system, the protocol implemented by default in the Desmond program was used (Marican et al ). The optimised potential for liquid simulations force field parameters were applied in all systems.…”

“…The 3D geometries for each structure were optimized using Gaussian software version 16, revision A.03, Inc., Wallingford, CT, USA [29] at Density Functional Theory level using the B3LYP method and 6-311+G(d,p) as the selected basis set. The DCAs identified by Marican et al 2018 [17] were used in this study.…”

“…To model the 10:2 proportion of PVA:MA, the polymer matrix built with the 28 PVA chains (considering a total of 952 PVA monomers) was crosslinked incorporating 190 MA into the polymer matrix, of which 150 were covalently bonded to the –OH groups of PVA chains. The crosslinking procedure was performed according to previous work described by Marican et al (2018) and Avila-Salas et al (2018) [17,34]. Subsequently, LEAP program was used to covalently bonding 16 γ-CD molecules to the MAs that were linked to the PVA only by one end.…”
