Journal ArticleDOI
Essential Oils Loaded in Nanosystems: A Developing Strategy for a Successful Therapeutic Approach
Anna Rita Bilia,Clizia Guccione,Benedetta Isacchi,C Righeschi,Fabio Firenzuoli,Maria Camilla Bergonzi +5 more
TL;DR: Nanocarriers can be proposed: polymeric nanoparticulate formulations, extensively studied with significant improvement of the essential oil antimicrobial activity, and lipid carriers, including liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanostructured lipid particles, and nano- and microemulsions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving on Nature: The Role of Nanomedicine in the Development of Clinical Natural Drugs.
Anna Rita Bilia,Vieri Piazzini,Clizia Guccione,Laura Risaliti,Martina Asprea,Giada Capecchi,Maria Camilla Bergonzi +6 more
TL;DR: Novel nanoformulations based on drug delivery systems, namely nanoparticles, micelles, and vesicles, offer significant promise in overcoming limitations in overcoming physical/chemical instability in natural products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Artemisinin and artemisinin plus curcumin liposomal formulations: Enhanced antimalarial efficacy against Plasmodium berghei-infected mice
Benedetta Isacchi,Maria Camilla Bergonzi,Margherita Grazioso,C Righeschi,Alessia Pietretti,Carlo Severini,Anna Rita Bilia +6 more
TL;DR: The enhanced permanency in blood of A-PL suggests the use of these nanosystems as suitable passive targeted carriers for parasitic infections; this strong effect of formulation is added up to the mechanism of action of artemisinin which acts in the erythrocyte cycle stage of human host as a blood schizonticide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous analysis of artemisinin and flavonoids of several extracts of Artemisia annua L. obtained from a commercial sample and a selected cultivar.
TL;DR: These studies indicate that several flavonoids of A. annua can promote and enhance the reaction of artemisinin with hemin, and an HPLC/DAD/MS method is proposed for the simultaneous detection and quantification of both flavonoid and artemis inin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flavonoids Loaded in Nanocarriers: An Opportunity to Increase Oral Bioavailability and Bioefficacy"
TL;DR: The current status of novel nanodelivery systems including nanospheres, nanocaspsules, micro- and nanoemulsions, micelles, solid lipid nanoparticles and nanostructured lipid capsules, successfully developed for overcoming the delivery challenges of flavonoids are reviewed.
