摘要：

Epoxy-alpha-lapachone (ELAP), an oxirane-functionalized molecule synthesized from naturally occurring lapachol, has shown promising activity against murine infection with Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis. Herein, we report the successful development of oil-in-water-type (o/w) microemulsions (ME) loaded with ELAP (ELAP-ME) using Capmul MCM, Labrasol, and PEG 400. Stability studies revealed that ELAP-ME (100 mu g/mL of ELAP), which was comprised of globule size smaller than 120.4 +/- 7.7 nm, displayed a good stability profile over 73 days. ELAP-ME had an effect in BALB/c mice infected with L. (L.) amazonensis, causing reductions in paw lesions after two weeks of treatment (similar to 2-fold) when compared to untreated animals. Furthermore, there was also a reduction in the parasite load both in the footpad (60.3%) and in the lymph nodes (31.5%). Based on these findings, ELAP-ME emerges as a promising treatment for tegumentar leishmaniasis.
