A polymeric system capable of delivering 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) at increased rates on demand by external microwave irradiation was developed. Sustained-release systems were made by incorporating 5-FU into an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer. When exposed to release medium, the delivery systems released the drug slowly and continuously. Upon exposure to microwave irradiation, the drug was released at a much higher rate. Release rates returned to base line levels when the microwave irradiation was discontinued. This study demonstrated that release rates of 5-FU from a polymer matrix can be increased at desired times by external microwave irradiation.  相似文献

The functionality of a new class of monolithic systems for the controlled release of drugs is discussed. The systems consist of uniformly dispersed particles of osmotically active therapeutic agents (drugs) in biocompatible polymeric matrices. The drug particles are encapsulated by polymers to form a multiplicity of microcapsules throughout the matrix. These osmotic film systems display zero-order drug delivery kinetics. The principal energy source governing the release of agents is osmotic in nature. When such a film is placed in an aqueous infinite sink, the film imbibes water into the outermost layer of the dispersion at a rate dictated by permeability of the polymer. Water transport into the film continues until volumetric rupture of the drug-containing capsules occurs, after which time saturated drug solution is pumped through channels created by the rupture. This process repeats itself in a serial fashion until the system is exhausted of agent. Due to the osmotic functionality of these systems, reduction of the thermodynamic activity of water outside the system can proportionally reduce the release of agent. In this paper the effects of varying drug particle size, osmotic pressure gradients, system area, drug type, polymer type, and temperature upon the drug release kinetics are presented. Application of this new technology has allowed the fabrication of several useful drug therapeutic systems.  相似文献

The area of polymeric controlled drug delivery systems has been a field of increasing interest. However, relatively little attention has been given to developing systems in which the rate of delivery can be manipulated externally. We now report that release rates of biologically active substances from a polymeric matrix can be repeatedly modulated from a position external to the environment of use by ultrasonic energy. The ultrasound affects the degradation rate of bioerodible polymers as well as permeation through non-erodible polymers. The system has been shown to be responsive in vivo. Skin histopathology of the ultrasound treated area didn't reveal any differences between the treated skin and the untreated controls.  相似文献

Self‐assembled, noncovalent polymeric biodegradable materials mimicking proteoglycan aggregates were synthesized from inclusion complexes of cationic surfactants with γ‐cyclodextrin and the natural anionic polymer hyaluronan. The amorphous structure of this ternary system was proven by X‐ray diffraction and thermal analysis. Light‐scattering measurements showed that there was a competition between hyaluronic acid and the surfactant for the cyclodextrin cavity. These self‐assembled supramolecular matrices were loaded with both hydrophilic and lipophilic drug substances for dissolution studies. The release of the entrapped drugs was found to be controlled by cations in the surrounding media and by biodegradation. Slow drug release in an ion‐free medium became faster in physiological salt solution in which the macroscopic polymer matrix was disassembled. In contrast, the enzymatic degradation of hyaluronan was hindered in the polymeric matrix. The supramolecular systems consisting of γ‐cyclodextrin as a macrocyclic host, a cationic surfactant guest, and hyaluronic acid as the anionic polymer electrostatically cross‐linked by the inclusion complex of the first two was found to be a novel drug‐delivery system for the controlled release of traditional drugs such as curcumin and ketotifen and proteins such as bovine serum albumin.  相似文献

Biodegradable polymers for microencapsulation of drugs   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Drug delivery has become increasingly important mainly due to the awareness of the difficulties associated with a variety of old and new drugs. Of the many polymeric drug delivery systems, biodegradable polymers have been used widely as drug delivery systems because of their biocompatibility and biodegradability. The majority of biodegradable polymers have been used in the form of microparticles, from which the incorporated drug is released to the environment in a controlled manner. The factors responsible for controlling the drug release rate are physicochemical properties of drugs, degradation rate of polymers, and the morphology and size of microparticles. This review discusses the conventional and recent technologies for microencapsulation of the drugs using biodegradable polymers. In addition, this review presents characteristics and degradation behaviors of biodegradable polymers which are currently used in drug delivery.  相似文献

Specific targeting and controlled release are crucial factors in the administration of drugs and therapeutic biomolecules. It has been shown that drug delivery systems can significantly benefit of the introduction of superparamagnetic nanoparticles in terms of both targeting and controlled release. Magnetic gradients can be used to target therapeutics to specific regions, while alternating magnetic fields produce frequency-dependent effects at the nanoparticle level. This review reports on the latest developments of multifunctional systems based on magnetic nanoparticles where the release of drugs and/or biomolecules is triggered by the application of an external magnetic field. The potentials of these systems are presented through examples in the fields of surface functionalized magnetic nanoparticles, magnetic polymer nanocomposites and magnetoliposomes. Recent results suggest the importance of integrating multiple functions within a single nanostructured device in order to successfully transport, localize and release drugs and biomolecules.  相似文献

Polymer pellets that contain drugs and may be implanted under the skin offer effective means for providing sustained, controlled drug therapy to humans and animals. Among the most useful drug delivery systems are those based on biodegradable polymers that ultimately are absorbed by the body — eliminating the need for their surgical removal. Copolymers of L-glutamic acid and γ-ethyl L-glutamate biodegrade to L-glutamic acid and ethanol, at rates that are determined by the initial copolymer composition. The materials are permeable to a wide range of drugs, including steroids, narcotic antagonists, peptide hormones, antimalarials, and anticancer agents. When fabricated into matrix rods or capsules, the copolymers have been used to release drugs in animals at constant rates for prolonged periods of time. p]In this study, rods composed of a blend of drug and copolymer were found to be useful for the long-term release (i.e., 6 to 24 months) of drugs having low aqueous solubility, such as progesterone and levonorgestrel. Capsules, composed of a copolymer sheath surrounding the drug, were better suited for shorter durations of release (i.e., up to 6 months) of drugs having higher aqueous solubility, such as luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone and naltrexone. The physical dimensions and copolymer compositions of either dosage form were readily varied to meet specific delivery rate and duration objectives while satisfying equally important degradation requirements.  相似文献

Controlled release matrices have predictable drug release kinetics, provide drugs for an extended period of time, and reduce dosing frequency with improved patient compliance as compared with conventional tablet dosage forms. In the current research work, losartan potassium controlled release matrix tablets were fabricated and prepared with rate altering agents; that is, Ethocel grade 100 combined with Carbopol 934PNF. Various drug to polymer ratios were used. HPMC, CMC, and starch were incorporated in some of the matrices by replacing some amount of filler (5%). The direct compression method was adopted for the preparation of matrices. In phosphate buffer (pH 6.8), the dissolution study was conducted by adopting the USP method-I as the specified method. Drug release kinetics was determined and dissolution profiles were also compared with the reference standard. Prolonged release was observed for all matrices, but those with Ethocel 100FP Premium showed more extended release. The co-excipient (HPMC, CMC, and starch) exhibited enhancement in the drug release rates, while all controlled release matrices released the drug by anamolous non-Fickian diffusion mechanism. This combination of polymers (Ethocel grade 100 with Carbopol 934PNF) efficiently extended the drug release rates up to 24 h. It is suggested that these matrix tablets can be given in once a day dosage, which might improve patient compliance, and the polymeric blend of Ethocel grade 100 with Carbopol 934PNF might be used in the development of prolonged release matrices of other water-soluble drugs.  相似文献

Drug forms based polymer carriers of prolong action were created for toxicologic effect of drug to be reduced in spite of long treatment of diseases. In present work a number of synthesis and natural polymers have been studied as carriers of antituberculous drugs for controlled delivery application. Following as drugs as isoniazid and ethionamide were incorporated into polymeric matrix (segmented polyurethanes, polyvinyl alcohol) and chemically bound with the polymer chain by covalent or electrostatic forces (aldehyde- and carboxymethylderivatives of polysaccharides). Biodegradation of polymeric systems and the release of drugs were studied by various physico-chemical methods. It was shown that the drug release depends of method of the immobilization, type of the drug/polymer bonding, drug loading. The bacteriostatic activity of obtained systems was determined. The possibility of tuberculosis treatment was proved in experiments of animals.  相似文献

The work describes novel functional bionanosystems for treatment and diagnostics on the basis of proteins, enzymes, polymeric coatings, and magnetic nanoparticles developed at Lomonosov Moscow State University Laboratory for Chemical Design of Bionanomaterials in collaboration with scientists from UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy (USA). The properties of enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase, organophosphate hydrolase, and lysines of bacteriophages) and other drug molecules immobilized in polymeric complexes, as well as the methods for targeted drug delivery using cell-mediated systems and magnetic nanoparticles in in vitro and in vivo operating conditions, are discussed. Physical and chemical characteristics, including data on the functional properties of the nanoformulations, are obtained. The nanoformulations developed demonstrated high potential therapeutic efficacy for the treatment of central nervous system and brain diseases, inflammations (including inflammatory diseases of the eye), cancer and infectious diseases, neurotoxic injury, and others. The possibilities of remote control biochemical reactions using a nonheating low-frequency alternating magnetic field (AMF) for the controlled release of drugs are analyzed in the review. The experimental results of the AMF effects on bionanosystems containing magnetic nanoparticles, such as changing the catalytic activities of enzymes bound to magnetic nanoparticles and ‘disordering’ of the lipid bilayer in membranes, are considered.  相似文献

This paper presents a new approach in the field of controlled drug delivery systems using a novel quantum dot (QD). We developed a system for polymeric microencapsulated drugs which is conjugated to near infrared (NIR) absorbing quantum dots and tested the feasibility of burst release of a model drug, heparin, from microcapsules triggered by irradiation. We have shown the burst release of heparin from microcapsules can be achieved by irradiation. This system is designed to externally modulate drug release in response to physiological needs by control of the intensity and period of irradiation. These results suggest that QD can be a key component to be used for triggering the release of drugs for various clinical applications. We further investigated the heparin incorporation into and release from decellularized blood vessels for potential application of functionalized heparin for vascular graft engineering.  相似文献

We report the development of a magnetically controlled drug delivery device for on-demand drug release to treat chronic diseases. The devices consist of drug-loaded micro-reservoirs (6 mm in diameter and ~550 μm in depth), sealed by magnetic PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) membranes (? 6 mm × 40 μm) with laser-drilled apertures and actuated by an external magnetic field. We present a detailed analysis of the magnetic actuation forces and provide an estimate of the resulting membrane deflections. The reservoirs are fabricated by PDMS molding and loaded with drugs using solvent evaporation methods. Post-processing procedures using bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption on magnetic PDMS surfaces are carried out to modify the surface wettability and to allow water filling and dissolution of the drugs in the reservoirs. Detailed surface modification processes are described and characterized. The device demonstrates on-demand delivery of methylene blue (MB) as a model drug. Intermittent magnetic actuations of the device in a ~200 mT magnetic field show 10-fold increase in MB release compared to background release when the device is not actuated.  相似文献

Polymeric delivery systems have been extensively studied to achieve localized and controlled release of protein drugs. However, it is still challenging to control the release of multiple protein drugs in distinct stages according to the progress of disease or treatment. This study successfully demonstrates that multiple protein drugs can be released from aptamer-functionalized hydrogels with adjustable release rates at predetermined time points using complementary sequences (CSs) as biomolecular triggers. Because both aptamer-protein interactions and aptamer-CS hybridization are sequence-specific, aptamer-functionalized hydrogels constitute a promising polymeric delivery system for the programmable release of multiple protein drugs to treat complex human diseases.  相似文献

Thermally sensitive polymeric nanocarriers were developed to optimize the release profile of encapsulated compounds to improve treatment efficiency. However, when referring to thermally sensitive polymeric nanocarriers, this usually means systems fabricated from lower critical solution temperature (LCST) polymers, which have been intensively studied. To extend the field of thermally sensitive polymeric nanocarriers, we for the first time fabricated a polymeric drug delivery system having an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) of 43 °C based on an amphiphilic polymer poly(AAm‐co‐AN)‐g‐PEG. The resulting polymeric micelles could effectively encapsulate doxorubicin and exhibited thermally sensitive drug release both in vitro and in vivo. A drastically improved anticancer efficiency (IC50 decreased from 4.6 to 1.6 μg mL?1, tumor inhibition rate increased from 55.6 % to 92.8 %) was observed. These results suggest that UCST‐based drug delivery can be an alternative to thermally sensitive LCST‐based drug delivery systems for an enhanced antitumor efficiency.  相似文献

There has been growing interest in the subject of drug delivery and the design and evaluation of controlled-release systems. The simplest way to control the release of an active agent is to disperse it in an inert polymeric matrix. Controlled-release systems are of interest because they are technologically simple, relatively cheap, and practically unaffected by physiological changes. In this study, a new matrix system was formed by an active principle, metoclopramide hydrochloride, scattered into a biocompatible hydrophobic polymerical mesh, polyamide 12, to achieve sustained and controlled delivery of metoclopramide hydrochloride. This research was conducted to investigate the in vitro drug release behavior from these new inert polymeric matrix tablets. The drug release process was investigated both experimentally and by means of mathematical models. Different models were applied for the evaluation of drug release data. On the basis of our results, a biexponential equation was proposed, Q=Qfast(1)(1 - e(-Kfast t)) + Qslow(2)(1 - e(-Kslow t)), in an attempt to explain the mechanism responsible for the release process. Additionally, the influence of the experimental conditions of the dissolution devices, such as rate of flow and pH of dissolution medium, on the parameters that characterize the release mechanism was studied, and it was found that the main factor was the hydrodynamic condition of rate of flow.  相似文献

Electrospinning is a versatile method for producing continuous nanofibers. It has since become an easy and cost-effective technique in the manufacturing process and drawn keen interests in most biomedical field applications. Nanofibers have garnered great attention in nanomedicine due to their resemblance with the extracellular matrix (ECM). Like nanoparticles, its unique characteristics of higher surface-to-volume ratio and the tunability of the polymers utilizing nanofiber have increased the efficiency in encapsulation and drug-loading capabilities. Smart or “stimuli-responsive” polymers have shown particular fascination in controlled release, where their ability to react to minor changes in the environment, such as temperature, pH, electric field, light, or magnetic field, distinguishes them as intelligent. Polymers are a popular material for the design of drug delivery carriers; consequently, various types of drugs, including antiviral, proteins, antibiotics, DNA and RNA, are successfully encapsulated in the pH-dependent nanofibers with smart polymers which is a polymer that can respond to change such as pH change, temperature. In this minireview, we discuss applications of smart electrospun pH-responsive nanofibers in the emerging biomedical developments which includes cancer drug targeting, oral controlled release, wound healing and vaginal drug delivery.  相似文献

Instead of conventional method such as thermal cross-linking method, γ-irradiation is used to improve the properties of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as a matrix containing progesterone. The thermal cross-linking of PDMS monolithic systems containing drug is deleterious to the drug. Usually, all drugs are unstable both at high vulcanizing temperature and in the presence of peroxide catalysts. This novel method is found to be effective for the stability of the controlled drug delivery systems. The PDMS (three medical grades) matrices were exposed to γ-irradiation in ambient conditions with total doses of 50, 75 and 100 kGy. The mechanical properties confirmed that the samples are cross-linked. It is found that the progesterone release rate is affected by irradiation treatment. It is deduced, however that there is no significant difference in the release profile of progesterone by increasing the irradiation dose from 50 to 100 kGy.  相似文献
