Cationic lipid emulsion system consisting of 1, 2-dioleoyl-sn-slycero-3-trimethyl-ammonium-propane(DOTAP) and plasmin DNA with various counterions in the lipid headgroups were prepared. The transfection activity of the cationic lipid emulsion systems was then investigated in vitro and in vivo. The complex formation of plasmid DNA lipid emulsion was affected by the counterions through charged headgroup repulsion and also by the salt concen-tration in the media. As such , the transfection activity of the DOTAP emulsion system can be controlled by changing the counterions.

Purpose: Lipid autoxidation of a soybean oil-in-water emulsion with high oil content was studied under after basil extract and/or iron addition. Methods: The emulsion consisted of tocopherol-stripped soybean oil (40 g), citrate buffer (60 g, pH 4.0), and/or $FeSO_4$ (0.5 mg) with 75% ethanol extract (200 mg/kg) of basil (Ocimum basilicum). Lipid oxidation was evaluated using headspace oxygen content, hydroperoxide contents, and p-anisidne values of the emulsion. Polyphenol compound retention in the emulsion during oxidation was determined spectrophotometrically. Results: Addition of basil extract significantly (p<0.05) decreased reduced hydroperoxide contents of the emulsion, and iron significantly (p<0.05) increased anisidine values and decreased oxygen contents. Co-addition of basil extract and iron showed significantly (p<0.05) lower reduced hydroperoxide contents in the emulsion than compared to those of the emulsion with added iron and the control emulsion without basil extract nor or iron. During the emulsion oxidation, polyphenol compounds in the emulsion with added basil extract were degraded, but more slowlywhich was slowed degraded in the presence of iron. Conclusion: The iIron increased the lipid oxidation through hydroperoxide decomposition, and basil extract showed antioxidant activity through radical-scavenging and iron-chelation. Polyphenol degradation was decelerated by iron addition, which suggested suggests iron chelation may be more preferred topreferentially activated over radical scavenging in the antioxidant action by of basil extract in the oil-in-water emulsion with high oil content.

Background: The goal of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of lipid emulsion on vasodilation caused by toxic doses of bupivacaine and mepivacaine during contraction induced by a protein kinase C (PKC) activator, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), in an isolated endothelium-denuded rat aorta. Methods: The effects of lipid emulsion on the dose-response curves induced by bupivacaine or mepivacaine in an isolated aorta precontracted with PDBu were assessed. In addition, the effects of bupivacaine on the increased intracellular calcium concentration ($[Ca^{2+}]_i$) and contraction induced by PDBu were investigated using fura-2 loaded aortic strips. Further, the effects of bupivacaine, the PKC inhibitor GF109203X and lipid emulsion, alone or in combination, on PDBu-induced PKC and phosphorylation-dependent inhibitory protein of myosin phosphatase (CPI-17) phosphorylation in rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) was examined by western blotting. Results: Lipid emulsion attenuated the vasodilation induced by bupivacaine, whereas it had no effect on that induced by mepivacaine. Lipid emulsion had no effect on PDBu-induced contraction. The magnitude of bupivacaine-induced vasodilation was higher than that of the bupivacaine-induced decrease in $[Ca^{2+}]_i$. PDBu promoted PKC and CPI-17 phosphorylation in aortic VSMCs. Bupivacaine and GF109203X attenuated PDBu-induced PKC and CPI-17 phosphorylation, whereas lipid emulsion attenuated bupivacaine-mediated inhibition of PDBu-induced PKC and CPI-17 phosphorylation. Conclusions: These results suggest that lipid emulsion attenuates the vasodilation induced by a toxic dose of bupivacaine via inhibition of bupivacaine-induced PKC and CPI-17 dephosphorylation. This lipid emulsion-mediated inhibition of vasodilation may be partly associated with the lipid solubility of local anesthetics.

Lipid oxidation and antioxidants changes in perilla oil emulsion added with chlorophyll were studied during storage in the dark or under 1,700 lux light at $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 h. The emulsion was consisted of perilla oil (33.12 g), 5% acetic acid (66.23 g), egg yolk powder (0.5 g), and xanthan gum (0.15 g), and Chlorophyll b was added to the emulsion at 0, 2.5 and 4 mg/kg. The lipid oxidation was evaluated by headspace oxygen consumption and hydroperoxide formation, and tocopherols and polyphenols were monitored by HPLC and spectrophotometry at 725 nm, respectively. The lipid oxidation of the perilla oil emulsion in the dark was not significant regardless of the addition of chlorophyll. Light increased and accelerated the lipid oxidation of the emulsion, and increased addition level of chlorophyll under light increased it further. However, there was no significant change in fatty acid composition in any case. Contents of tocopherols and polyphenols in the emulsion were not significantly changed during storage in the dark regardless of chlorophyll addition, indicating their little degradation. Tocopherols and polyphenols in the emulsion were significantly degraded during storage of the emulsion under light, and the degradation rate of polyphenols was increased with addition level of chlorophyll. The lipid oxidation of the perilla oil emulsion was inversely related with the residual amounts of tocopherols and polyphenols, with more dependent on the retention of polyphenols than that of tocopherols.

Recently increasing attention has been focused on solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) as a parenteral drug carrier due to its numerous advantages that can come from both polymeric particle and fat emulsions, together with the possibility of controlled release and increasing drug stability. Lipophilic drugs such as paclitaxel, cyclosporin A, and all-trans retinoic acid have been successfully entrapped in SLN but the incorporation of hydrophilic drugs in SLN is very limited because of their very low affinity to the lipid. Therefore, as a new approach to improve the loading of hydrophilic drugs, a w/o/w emulsion technique has been developed. The primary objective of the current study was to improve the loading efficiency of a model hydrophilic drug, glycine (Log P = -3.44) into SLN. The proposed preparation process is as follows: A heated aqueous phase consisting of 0.1 ml of glycine solution in water (100 mg/ml), and poloxamer 188 (5 mg) were then added to a molten oil phase containing precirol (100 mg) and lecithin (5 mg). This mixture was dispersed by sonicator, leading to a w/o emulsion. A double emulsion (w/o/w) was formed after the addition of 2% poloxamer solution to the above dispersed system. After cooling the double emulsion, solid lipid nanosuspensions were successfully formed. The lipid nanoparticles had the mean particle size of 441.25 nm, and the average zeta potential of -20.98 mV. The drug loading efficiency was measured to be 8.54% and the drug loading amount was measured to be 0.92%. The w/o/w emulsion method showed an increased loading efficiency compared to conventional o/w emulsion method.

W/O/W multiple emulsion의 산화에 미치는 surfactant micelle의 영향을 규명하기 위하여 W/O/W multiple emulsion에서 continuous phase로 전이되는 ferric iron의 양과 hydroperoxide의 양을 측정한 결과, continuous phase로 전이된 ferric iron과 hydroperoxide의 양은 첨가한 과량의 surfactant micelle에 의해, 저장기간이 길어질수록 증가하였다. Ferric iron을 함유한 W/O/W multiple emulsion의 지방산화 정도는 hydroperoxide와 TBA값 및 headspace hexanal을 측정하여 살펴본 결과 과량의 surfactant에 의해 산화는 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로 첨가된 과량의 surfactant에 의해 W/O/W multiple emulsion에서 prooxidant로 작용하는 ferric iron의 위치가 변화되어 산화를 줄일 수 있을 것으로 판단하였다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of ethanol extracts on lipid oxidation of oil emulsion. The results are as follows; The scavenging ability of plant extracts for hydroxyl radical was found, and plant extracts played an important role as a strong chelating agents to bind iron if Fe2+ ion exists in oil emulsion. Pinus densiflora(PD), Lithospermum erythrorhizon(LE) and PD＋LE acted as strong chelating agents to bind iron to reduce lipid oxidation in oil emulsion. The content of Fe2+ ion in ethanol extracts from LE and PD＋LE were significantly higher(p<0.05) than that of ethanol extracts from PD. The content of total iron has same tendency. The ascorbic acid content of PD(16.36ppm) was slightly higher than those of LE(13.08ppm). Electron donating ability of PD was significantly higher(p<0.05) than those of LE. However, the superoxide(SOD) like ability of LE showed a little higher than those of LE and PD＋LE, which means the strong antioxidant activity of LE. The nitrite scavenging effects were dependent on pH value, however, they decreased as pH value increased. Especially, they almost didn't show the nitrite scavenging effect in pH 6.0. In conclusion, the PD and LE extracts may be used as natural antioxidant sources to reduce lipid oxidation in oil emulsion.

Local anesthetic systemic toxicity (LAST) refers to the complication affecting the central nervous system (CNS) and cardiovascular system (CVS) due to the overdose of local anesthesia. Its reported prevalence is 0.27/1000, and the representative symptoms range from dizziness to unconsciousness in the CNS and from arrhythmias to cardiac arrest in the CVS. Predisposing factors of LAST include extremes of age, pregnancy, renal disease, cardiac disease, hepatic dysfunction, and drug-associated factors. To prevent the LAST, it is necessary to recognize the risk factors for each patient, choose a safe drug and dose of local anesthesia, use vasoconstrictor, confirm aspiration and use incremental injection techniques. According to the treatment guidelines for LAST, immediate application of lipid emulsion plays an important role. Although lipid emulsion is commonly used for parenteral nutrition, it has recently been widely used as a non-specific antidote for various types of drug toxicity, such as LAST treatment. According to the recently published guidelines, 20% lipid emulsion is to be intravenously injected at 1.5 mL/kg. After bolus injection, 15 mL/kg/h of lipid emulsion is to be continuously injected for LAST. However, caution must be observed for >1000 mL of injection, which is the maximum dose. We reviewed the incidence, mechanism, prevention, and treatment guidelines, and a serious complication of LAST occurring due to dental anesthesia. Furthermore, we introduced lipid emulsion that has recently been in the spotlight as the therapeutic strategy for LAST.

5% corn oil과 17 mM Brij 700으로 제조한 corn oil-in-water emulsion(O/W)의 droplet의 크기는 첨가되는 phenol의 양이 많아질수록 지방구가 다소 커지는 경향을 보였으며, continuous phase의 surfactant 양은 대조구에 비해 다소 낮아졌다. O/W에 녹차로부터 분리한 phenol류를 100-200 ppm의 농도로 첨가하고 30일간 저장하며 hydroperoxide의 생성량을 측정한 결과 대조구에 비해 낮은 hydroperoxide 함량을 보여 유도기간이 길어지는 것으로 나타났으며, phenol 종류별 hydroperoxide 생성억제 효과는 BHT > procyanidin B3-3-O-gallate>(+)-gallocatechin>(+)-catechin의 순서로 나타났다. 지방 산화의 결과 발생하는 aldehyde의 함량을 측정함으로서 산화정도를 측정하기 위하여 headspace hexanal 양을 측정한 결과, 대조구는 15일까지 hexanal이 검출되지 않았으나 phenol 첨가구는 20-30일로 headspace aldehyde의 불검출기간이 길어졌으며, 농도가 증가할수록 낮은 함량을 나타내었다. Phenol 종류별 headspacealdehyde 생성 억제 효과는 BHT > procyanidin B3-3-O-gallate > (+)-gallocatechin >(+)-catechin의 순서로 나타났다.
