Nanotransethosomes for enhanced transdermal delivery of mangiferin against rheumatoid arthritis: formulation, characterization, invivo pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic evaluation.

ABSTRACT: The present research study limns the preparation of MNF loaded transethosomes (MNF-TE) to improve MNF solubility, bioavailability and permeation through skin layers for transdermal delivery. MNF-TE was formulated using thin-film hydration method and optimization was done using Box-Behnken design (BBD). MNF-TEopt was characterized for Polydispersity index (PDI), vesicle size, entrapment efficiency, zeta potential and in vitro MNF release. For further evaluation, Pharmacokinetic study, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Skin permeation study and Confocal scanning laser microscopy (CLSM) were performed withal. The MNF-TEopt presented spherical and sealed shape vesicles with small vesicle size of 148.6 nm, entrapment efficiency of 74.23%, PDI of 0.1139 and in vitro release of 65.32%. The
