Abstract
This study describes the structure-activity relationship for carefully characterized N-alkyl-N-quaternary chitosan derivatives as permeation enhancers for drugs that are mainly absorbed through the paracellular pathway, such as macromolecular drugs and hydrophilic drugs, in a well defined bronchial epithelial cell line. The O-methyl free derivatives used in the study were fully trimethylated (100%) N,N,N-trimethyl chitosan (TMC) and N-propyl-(QuatPropyl), N-butyl-(QuatButyl) and N-hexyl (QuatHexyl)-N,N-dimethyl chitosan, with 85-91% degree of quaternization. The fully trimethylated TMC, from 0.25mg/ml, decreased transepithelial electrical resistance (TER) in a reversible manner and enhanced the permeation of the macromolecule FITC-dextran 4kDa (FD4) 2-5 fold. TMC did not cause any alterations in the tight junction (TJ) protein claudin-4 or in F-actin architecture. QuatHexyl was the most effective polymer to produce enhanced permeation and decreased TER from 0.016mg/ml. Nevertheless, this enhanced permeation was accompanied by reduced viability and dissociation of F-actin and claudin-4 proteins. The structure-activity relationship suggests that more lipophilic derivatives show more permeation enhancement, TJ disassembly, and less viability in the order of hexyl≈butyl>propyl>methyl and demonstrates that the permeation effect is not only mediated by permanent positive charge but also by the extent of N-alkylation. These results are relevant to elucidate the structural factors contributing to the permeation enhancement of chitosan derivatives and for potential use in pulmonary applications.
