Optimization of hydrogel containing toluidine blue O for photodynamic therapy in treating acne.

Abstract:

:Antibiotics and photodynamic therapy (PDT) are widely employed in curing acne. However, antibiotics as an effective treatment would lead to bacterial resistance and severe side effects. In this study, we aimed to develop a novel TBO hydrogel, which could prolong the retention time of photosensitizer (TBO) at the lesion site and improve therapeutic effect. In vitro antibacterial experiments (against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli), the response surface methodology was used to optimize the formulation of TBO hydrogel. The results indicated that the optimal formulation was 0.5% (v/v) carbomer, 0.01 mg/mL TBO, 0.5% (v/v) ethanol concentration, 0.5% (v/v) Tween 80, the mass ratio of NaOH to carbomer of 0.4 (w/w). The TBO hydrogel formulation showed the strong antibacterial activity for Propionibacterium acnes. The stability, pH, and antibacterial activity of TBO hydrogel did not significantly change under 4 °C, 25 °C, and 40 °C during 6-week storage. Furthermore, TBO combined with carbomer hydrogel showed the 51.28% (4 h) and 69.80% (24 h) release. In summary, the hydrogel TBO might be a vital therapeutic strategy to promote the PDT applied in the topical therapy of acne.
