In this study, chitosan nanoparticles loaded with dihydromyricetin (CS-DMY-NPs) were prepared using an ion crosslinking method. The CS-DMY-NPs exhibited sustained release and protective effects in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids, and showed better antioxidant activity compared to free DMY. In vivo study demonstrated that CS-DMY-NPs alleviated cisplatin-induced kidney damage by inhibiting oxidative stress and proinflammatory cytokines, and activated the Nrf2 signaling pathway in a dose-dependent manner.
Dihydromyricetin (DMY) is a natural dihydroflavonol compound known for its diverse pharmacological benefits. However, its limited stability and bioavailability posed significant challenges for further applications. To address these issues, in this study, an ion crosslinking method was utilized to prepare chitosan nanoparticles that were loaded with DMY. The synthesized chitosan nanoparticles (CS-DMY-NPs) were spherical in shape with particle size and & zeta; potential of 198.7 nm and 45.05 mV, respectively. Furthermore, in vitro release experiments demonstrated that CS-DMY-NPs had sustained release and protective effects in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids. CS-DMY-NPs exhibited better antioxidant activity by ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activity than free DMY. In vivo study showed that CS-DMY-NPs alleviated cisplatin-induced kidney damage by inhibiting oxidative stress and proinflammatory cytokines, and had better activity compared to DMY (free). Immunofluorescence data showed that CS-DMY-NPs activated the Nrf2 signaling pathways in a dose-dependent manner to combat cisplatin-induced kidney damage. Our results demonstrate that CS-TPP has good compatibility with DMY, and CS-DMY-NPs exhibited better protective effects against cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) than free DMY.
