description | Osteoporosis is a disease that reduces bone mass and microarchitecture, which makes bones fragile. Postmenopausal osteoporosis occurs due to estrogen deficiency. Raloxifene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator used to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis. However, it has a low bioavailability, which requires long-term, high-dose raloxifene administration to be effective and causes several side effects. Herein, raloxifene was encapsulated in human serum albumin (HSA)-based nanoparticles (Ral/HSA/PSS NPs) as an intravenous-injection pharmaceutical formulation to increase its bioavailability and reduce the treatment dosage and time. In vitro results indicated that raloxifene molecules were well distributed in HSA-based nanoparticles as an amorphous state, and the resulting raloxifene formulation was stabile during long-term storage duration. The Ral/HSA/PSS NPs were both biocompatible and hemocompatible with a decreased cytotoxicity of high-dose raloxifene. Moreover, the intravenous administration of the prepared Ral/HSA/PSS NPs to rats improved raloxifene bioavailability and improved its half-life in plasma. These raloxifene-loaded nanoparticles may be a potential nanomedicine candidate for treating postmenopausal osteoporosis with lower raloxifene dosages. |
