General description

Stearyl glycyrrhetinate is a stearic acid ester of glycyrrhetinic acid, generally used as a flavoring agent in commercially available cosmetic products.

Application

Stearyl glycyrrhetinate can be used to prepare modified liposomes loaded with norcantharidin and 10-hydroxycamptothecin, which are used as drug delivery systems in cancer therapy.

10-Hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) liposomes surface modified with stearyl glycyrrhetinate (SG) were prepared by the film dispersion method. Characterization of the liposomes, including drug release in vitro, pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution, was done. HCPT in plasma and tissues was determined by high-performance

In the current study, norcantharidin (NCTD)-loaded liposomes (LIPs) modified with stearyl glycyrrhetinate (SG; SG-NCTD-LIP) were prepared by the ethanol injection method. To increase the drug encapsulation efficiency (EE), the formulation of NCTD-LIP was optimized by single factor test and orthogonal
