Poloxamine-based nanomaterials for drug delivery.
Poloxamines (Tetronic) are X-shaped amphiphilic block copolymers formed by four arms of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide) (PEO-PPO) blocks bonded to a central ethylenediamine moiety. Such a structure confers multi-responsive behaviour, namely temperature and pH-sensitiveness. At relatively low concentrations but above the critical micellar concentration (CMC), poloxamines generate poly...
متن کاملPolysaccharide-Based Micelles for Drug Delivery
Delivery of hydrophobic molecules and proteins has been an issue due to poor bioavailability following administration. Thus, micelle carrier systems are being investigated to improve drug solubility and stability. Due to problems with toxicity and immunogenicity, natural polysaccharides are being explored as substitutes for synthetic polymers in the development of new micelle systems. By grafti...
متن کاملCarbon Nanomaterials for Drug Delivery
Carbon nanomaterials with unique nanostructure (CMNS) are the most studied materials in nanotechnology, despite some conflicting results about their safety profiles [1, 2]. Although their structures are simple, carbon nanomaterials provide exceptional physical and chemical properties including high electrical and thermal conductivities, unique optical properties, and extreme chemical stability....
متن کاملCurrent Perspective on microneedles for ocular drug delivery
Many ocular inflammatory and proliferative diseases require long-term pharmacological intervention/treatment. However, delivery of drugs in therapeutic levels to the back of the eye is challenging using conventional topical application, due to the poor efficacy. Systemic injections of drugs pose severe adverse effects. Direct injection into the eye may need surgical intervention. In the recent ...
متن کاملEudragit-based Nanostructures: a Potential Approach for Ocular Drug Delivery
Drug delivery in ocular therapeutics is a challenging problem and is a subject of interest to scientists working in the multidisciplinary areas pertaining to the eye. Most ocular diseases are treated by topical drug application in the form of solutions, suspensions and ointment. These conventional dosage forms suffer from the problems of poor ocular bioavailability, because of various anatomica...
