Title in Portuguese
Desenvolvimento de microemulsões e sua transformação in situ em géis de fase líquido-cristalina como plataforma para liberação sustentada de fármacos e seu uso no tratamento do alcoolismo.

Preferência condicionada por lugar
Abstract in Portuguese
Este estudo visa o desenvolvimento de microemulsões que, após captação de água do tecido subcutâneo, transformar-se-ão em gel nanoestruturado de fase hexagonal para liberação sustentada de naltrexona e tratamento do alcoolismo. A microemulsão selecionada, composta por monooleína, tricaprilina, propilenoglicol e água (ME-MO) resultou na liberação in vitro de 31 % de naltrexona em 96 h. Após sua administração subcutânea, foi observada formação do gel em 48 h, o qual persistiu por mais de 30 dias in vivo, promovendo liberação prolongada do marcador fluorescente Alexa flúor. A eficácia da formulação foi avaliada em modelo de preferência condicionada por lugar induzida por etanol; ME-MO com 5 e 10% de naltrexona foi comparada à solução de naltrexona diária. Não observou-se diferença significativa entre a solução de naltrexona e ME-MO 5%, enquanto que ME-MO 10% diferiu destas, e antagonizou a preferência condicionada por lugar. Esses resultados demonstram o potencial de ME-MO como uma plataforma para liberação prolongada de fármacos no tratamento de dependência química.

Abstract in English
This study focuses on the development of microemulsions that after in vivo water uptake of the subcutaneous tissue will turn into liquid-crystalline gels for sustained release of naltrexone, used in the treatment of alcoholism. Three microemulsions based on monoolein and tricapryline (ME-MO), vitamin E TPGS and propylene glycol, TPGS and Span were selected. The latter resulted is faster drug release (65% in 96 h). Based on the ability of the gel formed to withstand dilution, ME-MO was selected for in vivo studies. After subcutaneous administration, hexagonal phase formation was observed in 48 h and its persistence for more than 30 days in those animals. The efficacy of the formulation was assessed using conditioned preference place model. The animals were divided into four groups: Saline (control); Naltrexone solution (1 mg / kg) daily for 8 days (30 min before ethanol administration), and ME-MO with 5% or 10% naltrexone (single administration). The results suggest that ME-MO 10% antagonized the preference induced by ethanol.
