Chronic inflammation and tissue damage can result from uncontrolled during SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19 infections, leading to post-acute COVID conditions long COVID. Curcumin, found in turmeric, has potent anti-inflammatory properties but limited effectiveness. This study developed nanocurcumin, a curcumin nanoparticle, enhance its physical chemical stability investigate vitro upon CoV2-SP induction lung epithelial cells. Nanocurcumin was prepared by encapsulating extract phospholipids. The particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential of nanocurcumin were measured using dynamic light scattering. encapsulated content determined HPLC analysis. encapsulation efficiency 90.74 ± 5.35% as HPLC. Regarding the release curcumin, displayed higher than non-nanoparticle curcumin. further investigated for A549 cell line. As ELISA, showed inhibitory effects on inflammatory cytokine releases CoV2-SP-stimulated conditions, evidenced significant decrease IL-6, IL-1β IL-18 secretions compared with spike-stimulated control group (p < 0.05). Additionally, RT-PCR, significantly inhibited expression genes (IL-6, IL-1β, IL-18, NLRP3) inhibition NLRP3 inflammasome machinery proteins Western blot, decreased expressions including NLRP3, ASC, pro-caspase-1, active form caspase-1 cells Overall, nanoparticle formulation improved solubility bioavailability, demonstrating CoV2-SP-induced scenario inhibiting mediators machinery. shows promise an product preventing COVID-19-related airway inflammation.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new and severe infectious global disaster spreading rapidly worldwide. Natural products have long history been widely used to treat various acute, chronic, even life-threatening diseases However, the natural reduced bioavailability availability as they poor kinetic properties, such large molecular weight, inability cross lipid membranes, weak absorption ability. With rapid development of nanotechnology, using novel nanotechnology in conjunction with can effectively eliminate restriction entry nanoproducts into body be diagnose diseases, including COVID-19, bringing strategies directions for medicine. This article reviews role implementation against COVID-19 based on nanotechnology.

Purpose: Immunomodulatory and broad-spectrum antiviral activities have motivated the evaluation of curcumin for Coronavirus infection 2019 (COVID-19) management. Inadequate bioavailability is main impediment to therapeutic effects oral Cur. This study aimed develop an optimal transferosome-loaded thermosensitive in situ gel improve its delivery lungs. Methods: Transferosomes were developed by using 3 screening layouts. The phospholipid concentration as well type surfactant considered independent variables. entrapment efficiency (EE%), size, surface charge, polydispersity index (PDI) regarded dependent factors. A cold technique was employed in-situ gels. Optimized transferosomes loaded onto selected produced assessed based on shape attributes, ex vivo permeability enhancement, safety nasal mucosa. vitro cytotoxicity, cytopathic effect, plaque assay (CV/CPE/Plaque activity), performance evaluated after intranasal administration experimental rabbits. Results: optimized preparation displayed a particle size 664.3 ± 69.3 nm, EE% 82.8 0.02%, ZP − 11.23 2.5 mV, PDI 0.6 0.03. release from transferosomal markedly improved compared with that free drug-loaded gel. An permeation revealed significant improvement (2.58-fold) drug across tissues sheep. Histopathological confirmed these preparations. formulation showed high activity against SARS-CoV-2 at reduced concentrations. High relative (226.45%) attained formula intranasally administered rabbits transferosome relatively lung accumulation administration. Conclusion: provides promising treatment COVID-19 patients, which can be further preclinical clinical studies. Keywords: transferosomes, curcumin, gels, coronavirus 2, SARS-CoV-2,
