  2. Saratov State University Department of Optics & Biophotonics Motivation The main advantages of transcutaneous administration of preparations are: 1) minimal invasiveness or even noninvasiveness; 2)improved drug pharmacokinetics; and 3) targeted drug delivery However, living epidermis and its upper layer stratum corneum (SC) represent a major barrier making delivery of drugs deep into the skin a rather difficult problem Goal of the study is to investigate the effect of low-frequency US, DMSO, TSO and their combination on transdermal permeation ofgold nanoparticles suspension through intact skin and skin with the partly removed epidermis Saratov Fall Meeting 2013

  3. Materials and methods Saratov State University Department of Optics & Biophotonics • For this study laboratory rats with a healthy skin and experimental allergic contact dermatitis were used • As a potential drug carrier, a suspension of gold nanoshells (GNSs) in immersion solution of glycerol (50%) and PEG-400 (50%) was used • To enhance drug delivery into the skin dermis the suspension was mixed with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or thiophane sulfoxide (TSO) • For physical enhancement of the transdermal transport, the skin sites were treated with low-frequency ultrasound (US) • Monitoring of skin optical properties was implemented using an optical coherence tomography (OCT) • All measurements were performed at room temperature (about 20°C) Saratov Fall Meeting 2013

  4. Saratov State University Department of Optics & Biophotonics Materials and methods Commercial spectral optical coherence tomography system OCP930SR (Thorlabs, USA) (fig.1) working at the central wavelength 930 ± 5 nm with 100 ± 5 nm full width at half maximum spectrum, an optical power of 2 mW, a maximum image depth of 1.6 mm, and a length of scanned area 6 mm Axial and lateral resolutions were 6.2 and 9.6 µm in air, respectively • Experimental setup • OCT system Saratov Fall Meeting 2013

  6. Saratov State University Department of Optics & Biophotonics Materials and methods Sonicator “Dynatron 125” (Dynatronics, USA) (fig.2) equipped with a 2.2-cm diameter probe The US frequency was 1 MHz, the power was 1.1 W in the continuous mode, and the time of sonication was 4 min. During sonication, the US probe was immersed into applied solutions. Fig.2. US system“Dynatron 125” • Experimental setup • US system Saratov Fall Meeting 2013

  7. Saratov State University Department of Optics & Biophotonics Materials and methods As an OCA the mixture of dehydrated glycerol and polyethylene glycol with the MW 400(PEG-400) in equal proportion was prepared. Refractive index of the prepared mixture was evaluated the mean wavelength of the used OCT system as 1.421. The mixture was divided into 3 parts. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, 99%, Sigma, USA) and thiophane sulfoxide were added to the 1st and to the 2nd part, respectively, to obtain 9%-DMSO-OCA and 9%-TSO-OCA solutions. • Test objects In vivo experiments were carried out with white outbred laboratory rats. The age of the animals was nearly 12 months. Weight was 150-200 g. Before the experiment they were subjected to general anesthesia by intramuscular injection of Zoletil 50 (Virbac, France). The dose was 0.18±0.02 mL. The hair on the chosen skin areas was depilated previously using the depilatory cream Nair. • Immersion agents Saratov Fall Meeting 2013

  8. Saratov State University Department of Optics & Biophotonics Materials and methods In dependence on exposure type laboratory rats were divided into 8 investigated groups: I group - 20 minutes of mixture OCA - DMSO exposure II group - 20 minutes of mixture OCA - TSO exposure III group - mixture OCA - DMSO application and single ultrasonic exposure IV group - mixture OCA - TSO application and single ultrasonic exposure V group - 20 minutes of mixture OCA - DMSO exposure VI group - 20 minutes of mixture OCA - TSO exposure VII group - mixture OCA - DMSO application and single ultrasonic exposure VIII group - mixture OCA - TSO application and single ultrasonic exposure Healthy skin Skin with dermatitis • Test objects Saratov Fall Meeting 2013

  19. Saratov State University Department of Optics & Biophotonics Summary • The analysis of the results has shown that OCA usage in both cases of intact skin and skin with dermatitis led to the characteristic optical probing depth (OPD) increase because of the matching of refractive indices of collagen and elastin fibers and of interstitial fluid • The effectiveness of DMSO and TCO as amplifiers of diffusion through the SC is about the same • OPD of the skin with dermatitis is higher than that of intact skin for all exposure types. It can be explained by damage of SC - natural skin barrier • GNSs delivery into the skin led to OPD decrease regardless of delivery method because of the formation reflecting and scattering screen on the skin surface that prevented deep light penetration into the dermis. • Our results can be used for the development of new methods and optimization of the existing ones of drug delivery into the skin Saratov Fall Meeting 2013
