Abstract

Succinyl-chitin (SCH) nanoparticles were obtained by acylation of partially deacetylated chitin (DCH) nanofibers. Introduction of the succinyl moiety induced a partial amorphization of DCH, as viewed by X-ray diffraction, and increased the fractal dimension of the colloids from df = 1.2 (DCH) to 1.5-1.7 (SCH), as revealed by light scattering. The spherically symmetric form of the colloids remained almost unchanged, as indicated by the range of structure-sensitive ratios 1.0 < Rg/Rh < 1.2; the hydrodynamic diameter ranged from 200 to 300 nm. The cytoprotective activity of the SCH nanoparticles was evaluated in vivo in an acute hearing pathology model (220-250 g male Wistar rats, n = 90) following prophylactic and therapeutic administrations. Ototropic action was estimated using the amplitude of otoacoustic emissions at the frequency of the distortion product otoacoustic emissions in the range of 4-6.4 kHz before acoustic stimulation, as well as at 1 h, 24 h, and 7 days after acoustic stimulation. A dispersion of 0.3% SCH nanoparticles demonstrated prolonged ototropic action and earlier regeneration of hearing functions when compared to a meglumine sodium succinate solution. Thus, intravenous administration of the SCH nanoparticl...Continue Reading
