www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN received: 08 September 2016 accepted: 09 November 2016 Published: 07 December 2016 Effects of Liposomes Charge on Extending Sciatic Nerve Blockade of N-ethyl Bromide of Lidocaine in Rats Qinqin Yin1,*, Bowen Ke1,*, Xiaobing Chen2, Yikai Guan1, Ping Feng3, Guo Chen1, Yi Kang1, Wensheng Zhang1,4 & Yu Nie2 N-methyl bromide of lidocaine (QX-314) is a potential local anaesthetic with compromised penetration through cell membranes due to its obligated positive charge Liposomes have been widely used for drug delivery with promising efficacy and safety Therefore we investigated the local anaesthetic effects and tissue reactions of QX-314 in combination with anionic, cationic or neutral liposomes in rat sciatic nerve block model, and explored the effects of these liposomes on cellular entry of QX-314 in human embryonic kidney 293 cells The results demonstrated that anionic liposomes substantially prolonged the duration of sensory (25.7 ± 8.3 h) and motor (41.4 ± 6.1 h) blocks of QX-314, while cationic and neutral ones had little effects Tissue reactions from QX-314 with anionic liposomes were similar to those with commonly used local anaesthetic bupivacaine Consistent with in vivo results, the anionic liposomes produced the greatest promotion of cellular entry of QX-314 in a time-dependent manner In conclusion, ultra-long lasting nerve blocks were achieved by a mixture of QX-314 and anionic liposomes with a satisfactory safety profile, indicating a potential approach to improve postoperative pain management The liposome-induced enhancement in cellular uptake of QX-314 may underlie the in vivo effects Local anaesthetics (LA) are widely used to alleviate pain caused by invasive procedures Long-lasting LA will meet the great needs of post-operative pain management However, traditional LA have short period of actions, usually less than 8 h1 Recently, N-methyl bromide of lidocaine (2-[(2,6-dimethylphenyl)amino]-N,N,N-triethyl-2oxoethanaminium, also as known as QX-314) has emerged as a potential LA2,3 The analgesia produced by QX-314 in rodents is several fold longer than that by lidocaine, a traditional LA However, the effect of QX-314 is limited by its poor ability of penetrating through lipid tissues QX-314 is highly hydrophilic because of its obligated positive charge It is difficult for QX-314 to diffuse from the injection sites (tissues in the vicinity of nerve) to reach the action sites (the sodium channels on the inner surface of neural membranes) through lipid barriers such as muscles, epineruim, myelin sheath, and cell membranes Effective anaesthesia requires QX-314 at relatively high concentrations, which are associated with local tissue toxicities4 Recently, Sagie and Kohane used surfactants, such as those are used in transdermal drug delivery, to enhance the diffusion of QX-314 across the lipid barriers QX-314 with anionic sodium octyl sulfate provided sensory blocks for approximately 15 h; while co-injection of QX-314 with cationic octyltrimethylammonium bromide or neutral polyoxyethy-lene (20) sorbaitan monolaurate produced sciatic nerve blocks only up to 7 h and 5 h, respectively5 The pattern of prolongation was demonstrated as anionic ≫​  cationic  >​ neutral surfactants; the anionic surfactant was proved the most potent The underlying mechanisms remain unknown, but are postulated to be associated with the interaction among charges, hydrophobicities, and other physiochemical properties of QX-314 and surfactants It is known that most surfactants could cause local tissue toxicities, including inflammation Laboratory of Anaesthesia and Critical Care Medicine, Translational Neuroscience Centre of West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610041, P.R China 2National Engineering Research Centre for Biomaterials, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610064, Sichuan, P.R China 3Institution of Clinical Trials, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, Sichuan, P.R China 4Department of Anaesthesiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610041, Sichuan, P.R China *These authors contributed equally to this work Correspondence and requests for materials should be addressed to W.Z (email: zhang_ws@scu.edu.cn) or Y.N (email: nie_yu@scu.edu.cn) Scientific Reports | 6:38582 | DOI: 10.1038/srep38582 www.nature.com/scientificreports/ Type of Liposome Molecular radio Particles size (nm) Zeta potential (mV) PC/Chol/CHEMS-PEG (neutral liposome, NL) 40/17/3 249.3 ±​  12.3 −​9.6  ±​  0.4 PC/Chol/CHEMS/CHEMS-PEG (anionic liposome, AL) 40/8.5/8.5/3 275.3 ±​  10.6 −​31.2  ±​  0.9 PC/Chol/Chol-NH2/CHEMS-PEG (cationic liposome, CL) 40/8.5/8.5/3 271.6 ±​  13.8 39.6 ±​  1.2 Table 1.  Component, size distribution and zeta potential of charged liposomes and neuron necrosis, which can lead to permanent nerve dysfunction, so safety would be a major concern for peri-neural administration6 Liposome has been employed for the delivery of drugs including small molecular drugs, proteins and genes7–10, showing promising efficiency and bio-safety on account of its bio-membrane mimetic structure and component In clinical settings, the only commercial-available sustained release formulation of local anesthetics to date is multivesicular liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel ), which provided long-lasting analgesia in wound infiltration11 Compared with surfactants, liposomes have advantages in terms of tissue compatibility and local tissue reaction that have been confirmed in clinical practices12 In our previous reports, anionic and cationic PEGylated liposomes were synthesized with charges from hemisuccinated and lysine in cholesterol derivatives, demonstrating prolonged retention release profile, low cytotoxicity, and improved cellular uptake13 Deduced from the above studies, QX-314 may electrostatically interact with liposomes that carry the same or opposite charges, and attach to liposomes which would help enter nerve fibers, facilitating prolonged anaesthesia effects We hypothesized that our designed liposomes would prolong the nerve blocks from QX-314 in vivo, and enhance cellular entry of QX-314 in vitro ® Results and Discussion Characterization of different charged liposomes.  Different charged PEGylated liposomes were characterized under the same conditions The results of size distribution and zeta potential are presented in Table 1 and Fig. 1 It was obvious that three kinds of liposomes showed similar diameter around 240~270 nm (Table 1), and the morphology observed from microscopy (Fig. 2c) was corresponded to that obtained from dynamic light scattering (DLS) determination, with spherical shape No size and morphology difference was detected between liposomes composed of different components Zeta potential of liposomes containing N1cholesteryloxycarbonyl-1, 2-diaminoethane (Chol-NH2) and anionic cholesterol hemisuccinate (CHEMS) were +​39  mV and −​31 mV, respectively, while liposomes composed of PEGylated cholesterol derivative (Chol-PEG) was much lower (−​9 mV) Thus these three kinds of liposome were defined as cationic liposomes (CL), anionic liposomes (AL) and neutral ones (NL) (Fig. 3) Prolonged nerve blockade in QX-314 mixed with anionic liposomes.  To investigate the effects of liposomes on enhancing the nerve blockades from QX-314, 25 mmol/L QX-314 was peri-sciatically injected alone (Q) or with 40 mmol/L anionic liposomes (AL40), 80 mmol/L anionic liposomes (AL80), 40 mmol/L neutral liposomes (NL40), 80 mmol/L neutral liposomes (NL80), 40 mmol/L cationic liposomes (CL40), or 80 mmol/L liposomes (CL80) The negative control, Saline, did not elicit any detectable analgesia or muscle strength deficits Peri-sciatic injection of 0.5% bupivacaine, the positive control, produced effective sensory and motor blockade that lasted for 4.0 ±​ 0.8 h and 3.6 ±​ 1.3 h, respectively, consistent with literature14 25 mmol/L QX-314 resulted in slow-onset, short-lasting nerve blockades (sensory blockade: 2.9 ±​ 1.1 h, motor blockade: 2.5 ±​ 0.8 h; Fig. 4) similar to the observations from a previous research4 Co-application of cationic, anionic or neutral liposomes did not significantly accelerate the onset of sensory and motor block (Fig. 4a, P =​ 0.502 among groups) Compared with cationic and neutral liposomes, anionic ones (AL40) provided significantly longer sensory (25.7 ±​ 8.3 h, P
