Case Study

Pentoxifylline Used for the Preparation of Dual-Drug Liposomal Gels for Burn Wound Treatment

El-Salamouni, Noha S., et al. International Journal of Pharmaceutics 625 (2022): 122129.

Pentoxifylline (PTX), a methylxanthine derivative with anti-inflammatory and hemorheological properties, has shown therapeutic promise in the treatment of burn injuries. In a recent formulation strategy, PTX was co-encapsulated with valsartan (VAL) into phospholipid-based liposomes to create a novel dual-drug delivery system designed specifically for burn wound applications.
The liposomes were fabricated using a lipid film hydration method with Lipoid S100 and cholesterol (4:1 w/w) as the lipid matrix. VAL was first dissolved in chloroform with lipids, and a thin lipid film was formed via rotary evaporation. This film was subsequently hydrated using an aqueous PTX solution (1% w/w in phosphate buffer, pH 6.8), followed by rotary mixing and sonication to ensure efficient encapsulation. The resulting pentoxifylline-valsartan liposomes (PTX-VAL-L) were then incorporated into a gel matrix to enable topical application.
This co-delivery system leverages the complementary therapeutic effects of PTX (anti-inflammatory and vasodilatory) and VAL (angiotensin II receptor antagonist), offering enhanced wound healing, reduced inflammation, and improved vascularization at the burn site. The study underscores PTX's critical role not only as a bioactive molecule but also as a component in the development of advanced drug delivery platforms for trauma care.
This formulation exemplifies PTX's potential in modern nanocarrier-based therapeutics for complex wound management.
