Resumo: | Lycopene is a natural compound with one of the highest antioxidant activities. Its consumption is associated with lower risks in lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, for example. Experimentally, a murine model demonstrated the ingestion of lycopene, which reduced the damage in lungs caused by cigarette smoke. Since lycopene is highly hydrophobic, its formulations in supplements and preparations for laboratory assays are based on oils, additionally, bioavailavility is low. We developed a lycopene layered double hydroxide (Lyc-LDH) composite, which is capable of transporting lycopene aqueous media. Our objective was to evaluate the cyto- toxicity of Lyc-LDH and the intra-cellular production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in J774A.1 cells. Also, in vivo assays were conducted with 50 male C57BL/6 mice intranasally treated with Lyc-LDH 10 mg/kg (LG10), Lyc-LDH 25 mg/kg (LG25) and Lyc-LDH 50 mg/kg (LG50) during five days compared against a vehicle (VG) and control (CG) group. The blood, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue were analyzed. The results revealed that Lyc-LDH composite attenuated intracellular ROS production stimulated with lipopolysacharide. In BALF, the highest doses of Lyc-LDH (LG25 and LG50) promoted influx of macrophages, lymphocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils compared to CG and VG. Also, LG50 increased the levels of IL-6 and IL-13, and promoted the redox imbalance in the pulmonary tissue. On the contrary, low concentrations did not produce significative effects. In conclusion, our results suggest that intranasal administration of high concentrations of Lyc-LDH in- duces inflammation as well as redox status changes in the lungs of healthy mice, however, results with low concentrations open a promising way to study LDH composites as vehicles for intranasal administration of antioxidant coadjuvants. |
