RESUMEN
The current research aims to develop and evaluate chitosan-PLGA biocomposite scaffolds in combination with quercetin liposomes to accomplish the desired impact in oral lesions where pharmacotherapeutic agent treatment through circulation could only reach the low content at the target. Optimization of quercetin-loaded liposomes was carried out using 32 factorial design. The preparation of porous scaffolds comprising produced quercetin-loaded liposomes by thin-film method was carried out in the current study using a unique strategy combining solvent casting and gas foaming procedures. The prepared scaffolds were tested for physicochemical properties, in vitro quercetin release study, ex vivo drug permeation and retention research using goat mucosa, antibacterial activity, and cell migration studies on fibroblast L929 cell lines. Improved cell growth and migration were seen in the order control < liposomes < proposed system. The proposed system has been examined for its biological and physicochemical features, and it has the potential to be utilized as an efficient therapy for oral lesions.
