Abstract:
Myricetin (MYR) is a natural flavonoid that has several biological functions. However, some of its beneficial effects are diminished due to low water solubility, stability, and bioavailability. Herein, several kinds of silica nanoparticles (MCM-41 and SBA-15) were loaded with MYR to improve its biological activity as an analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory component, thereby overcoming its drawbacks. The nanoparticles (MYR@SBA-15) were formulated optimally, transforming MYR into an amorphous state. This transformation was confirmed via several strategies, including differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and powder x-ray diffraction. As a result, there was a significant enhancement in the solubility and rate of dissolution in water. The anti-inflammatory benefits as an innovative strategy and the underlying mechanism of action of MYR and its SBA-15 silica nanoparticles (MYR@SBA-15) were investigated based on the biochemical, histological, immunohistochemical, and metabolomic assays alongside their antipyretic and analgesic characteristics. Compared to the usage of raw MYR, the administration of MYR@SBA-15 at doses of 25, 50, and 100 mg/kg significantly decreases pain perception by inhibiting the body’s writhing motions induced by acetic acid. Furthermore, it helps regulate increased body temperature caused by baking yeast and effectively stabilizes it. It reduces the release of NO and PGE-2 in a concentration-dependent manner by down-regulating iNOS and COX-2 expression in the inflammatory model. MYR and MYR@SBA-15 also inhibit the nuclear translocation of NF-κB, downregulate the expression of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), such as p38, ERK1/2, and JNK protein, and reduce the generation of proinflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α. In addition, inflammatory cardinal signs like paw edema caused by carrageenan in rats are greatly suppressed by MYR and MYR@SBA-15 treatment when compared to the untreated group. More noteworthy outcomes are shown in the MYR@SBA-15, particularly at a dose of 100 mg/kg. These results of biochemical and immuno-histochemistry suggest that MYR@SBA-15 may be a useful analgesic antipyretic and may also help reduce inflammation by altering MAPKs/NF-κB and COX-2/PGE-2 signaling cascades. Serum metabolomics study demonstrated modifications in various low molecular weight metabolites with arthritis development. These metabolite levels were restored to normal when MYR@SBA-15 was administered via modulating several metabolic pathways, i.e., pyrimidine, energy metabolism, and proteins. Overall, MYR-loaded SBA-15 silica nanoparticles have demonstrated significant promise in enhancing the disturbed metaboloic pathways and providing a substantial capacity to regulate several oxidative stress and inflammatory mediators.
