A novel approach to insulin delivery via oral route: Milk fat globule membrane derived liposomes as a delivery vehicle.
Saudi Journal of Biological Sciences 2024 March
The current research endeavor seeks to unlock the potential of orally administered insulin formulations by utilizing liposomes derived from the fat globule membrane (MFGM) of camel milk as carriers for insulin. This pursuit emerges as a result of the recognized limitations of subcutaneous insulin therapy. The liposomes were meticulously created using the thin film hydration method, followed by comprehensive chemical and morphological analyses. Additionally, comprehensive safety assessments were carried out in vitro and in vivo , revealing significant findings. The Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum confirmed the presence of insulin within the liposomes, demonstrating changes in their size and charge. The in vitro cytotoxicity analysis, performed on HEK-293 cell lines through the MTT assay, yielded results indicating a cell viability of over 90%. In the in vivo investigation, diabetic rats induced by STZ were utilized to evaluate the effects of the liposomes, revealing substantial reductions in blood glucose levels, bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), albumin, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels. Hepatic histopathological assessments showed signs of recovery across all treatment groups, with no observable microscopic changes in renal tissue. This investigation highlights the significant hypoglycemic effects observed in insulin-loaded liposomes derived from MFGM obtained from camel milk when administered orally.
