INTRODUCTION ๐ฌ
Heart failure remains a major cause of mortality among individuals suffering from cardiovascular diseases, particularly as a consequence of chronic heart failure (CHF) and apoptosis-driven myocardial tissue damage. In addressing this critical health challenge, the current study introduces an innovative therapeutic approach that combines the pharmacological benefits of Dapagliflozin, an established SGLT-2 inhibitor, with advanced drug delivery techniques. Recognizing the limitations of conventional therapies, a novel derivative—compound 2—has been engineered to amplify the cardiovascular protective properties of Dapagliflozin. This study further incorporates a unique antimicrobial delivery system using chitosan (CS) integrated with compound 1, a bioactive agent sourced from actinomycetes. The composite system, CS-1@2, demonstrates pH-sensitive drug release properties and notable antimicrobial potential, making it a promising candidate for targeted CHF treatment. This introduction sets the stage for exploring a multi-functional therapeutic system with applications in personalized medicine.
DESIGN AND SYNTHESIS OF COMPOUND 2 ๐งช
In pursuit of improved pharmacological efficacy, compound 2 was synthesized as a novel derivative of Dapagliflozin. The design of this molecule aimed to retain the SGLT-2 inhibitory functions while enhancing its bioactivity against cardiovascular anomalies. Through rational drug design, compound 2 was structurally optimized to improve solubility, stability, and interaction with target sites within myocardial cells. Its synthesis followed a stepwise organic chemistry protocol validated through spectroscopic techniques such as NMR and MS. The derivative’s structural characteristics were chosen to ensure compatibility with the intended chitosan-based delivery platform. This synthesis marks a crucial milestone in expanding the potential of glucose-regulating drugs toward broader therapeutic applications in cardioprotection.
FABRICATION OF CS-1@2 DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM ๐งซ
The CS-1@2 drug delivery system was innovatively designed by loading compound 2 onto a chitosan matrix modified with compound 1, an antimicrobial bioagent derived from actinomycetes. Chitosan, a biodegradable and biocompatible polymer, was chosen for its porous architecture and favorable drug-binding properties. Compound 1 imparts antimicrobial properties, enhancing the formulation's biofunctionality. The combination, CS-1@2, was fabricated through ionic gelation, resulting in a microporous structure ideal for controlled drug release. The system was developed to release compound 2 selectively in mildly acidic microenvironments, mimicking the pathological conditions of damaged myocardial tissues. The CS-1@2 formulation thereby integrates therapeutic delivery and infection prevention into a single biomedical platform.
CHARACTERIZATION AND BIOPHYSICAL ANALYSIS ๐งฌ
Extensive physicochemical and morphological characterization of CS-1@2 was performed using techniques including FTIR, SEM, TGA, and XRD. The structural analysis confirmed the integration of compound 2 and compound 1 within the chitosan matrix. SEM imaging revealed a highly porous morphology, essential for optimal drug loading and release. Thermal stability and crystallinity profiles supported the integrity of the composite system under physiological conditions. The pH-responsive behavior was particularly notable, where drug release accelerated under mildly acidic conditions—an environment typical of inflamed or damaged cardiac tissue. These findings validate the CS-1@2 formulation's structural stability and responsiveness, essential for therapeutic precision in cardiovascular applications.
IN VITRO BIOLOGICAL STUDIES AND CHF MODEL ๐ง♂️
To evaluate the bioactivity of CS-1@2, in vitro assays were performed on AC16 human cardiomyocytes. A chronic heart failure model was induced using doxorubicin, a chemotherapeutic agent known to cause cardiotoxicity. The study demonstrated that CS-1@2 significantly alleviated apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction in damaged AC16 cells. Enhanced cell viability, reduced oxidative stress, and suppressed inflammatory markers were observed upon treatment. These results suggest that CS-1@2 effectively mitigates doxorubicin-induced myocardial injury, pointing to its therapeutic relevance in managing CHF. This model also serves as a preliminary validation of the delivery system’s efficacy before progressing to in vivo and clinical phases.
TRANSLATIONAL POTENTIAL AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES ๐
The development of the CS-1@2 system represents a significant advancement in translational cardiovascular therapy. By integrating a modified SGLT-2 inhibitor with a multifunctional chitosan carrier, this study provides a dual-action therapeutic strategy—combining glucose regulation, antimicrobial action, and myocardial protection. The pH-sensitive nature of the delivery system aligns well with the pathophysiological microenvironment of damaged cardiac tissue, ensuring localized and efficient drug action. As cardiovascular medicine increasingly leans toward personalization and precision, CS-1@2 offers a promising platform for targeted treatment. Future research will focus on preclinical trials, pharmacokinetics, and scalability for clinical application, with the goal of revolutionizing chronic heart failure management.
