The low bioavailability and short biological half-life of berberine chloride (BBR) negatively affect the protective role of this compound against osteoarthritis (OA). The present study was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of sustained BBR release system. Novel BBR-loaded chitosan microspheres (BBR-loaded CMs) were successfully synthesized using an ionic cross-linking method for sustained release. The basic characteristics of the prepared microspheres were subsequently evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques, encapsulation efficiency (EE), and in vitro release experiments. BBR-loaded CMs displayed spherical forms to encapsulate a considerable quantity of BBR (100.8?±?2.7?mg/g); these microspheres also exhibited an ideal releasing profile. The FT-IR spectra and XRD results revealed that BBR-loaded CMs were successfully synthesized via electrostatic interaction. In vitro experiments further showed that BBR-loaded CMs significantly inhibited sodium nitroprusside (SNP)-stimulated chondrocyte apoptosis as well as cytoskeletal remodeling, and led to increasing mitochondrial membrane potential and maintaining the nuclear morphology. BBR-loaded CMs exerted markedly higher anti-apoptotic activity in the treatment of OA, and markedly inhibited the protein expression levels of caspase-3, a disintegrin, and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS)-5 and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-13 induced by SNP in rat articular chondrocytes, compared with free BBR at equivalent concentration. Therefore, novel BBR-loaded CMs may offer potential for application in the treatment of OA. 相似文献

Gellan gum microspheres were obtained by ionotropic gelation technique, using the trivalent ion Al 3+. The percentage of entrapment efficiency ranged from 48.76 to 87.52% and 2 2 randomized full factorial design demonstrated that both the increase of polymer concentration and the decrease of crosslinker concentration presented a positive effect in the amount of encapsulated drug. Microspheres size and circularity ranged from 700.17 to 938.32?μm and from 0.641 to 0.796?μm, respectively. The increase of polymer concentration (1–2%) and crosslinker concentration (3–5%) led to the enlargement of particle size and circularity. However, the association of increased crosslinker concentration and reduced polymer content made the particles more irregular. In vitro and ex vivo tests evidenced the high mucoadhesiveness of microspheres. The high liquid uptake ability of the microspheres was demonstrated and the pH variation did not affect this parameter. Drug release was pH dependent, with low release rates in acid pH (42.40% and 44.93%) and a burst effect in phosphate buffer pH (7.4). The Weibull model had the best correlation with the drug release data, demonstrating that the release process was driven by a complex mechanism involving the erosion and swelling of the matrix or by non-Fickian diffusion. 相似文献

Chitosan-prednisolone conjugate microspheres (Ch-SP-MS) were prepared, and Eudragit coating was applied in order to efficiently deliver the microspheres and drug to the intestinal disease sites. The Eudragit L100-coated microspheres (Ch-SP-MS/EuL100) were examined for particle characteristics and the release of drug and Ch-SP-MS in different pH media at 37°C. Ch-SP-MS were spherical, with a mean size of 4.5 μm and prednisolone content of 3.3% (w/w). Ch-SP-MS/EuL100 were fairly spherical, with a mean size of 22. 5 μm and drug content of 0.32% (w/w). At pH 1.2, the release extent was less than 5% even at 48 h, and Eudragit coating tended to suppress the release. In contrast, at pH 6.8 and 7.4, Ch-SP-MS/EuL100 tended to show somewhat faster drug release than Ch-SP-MS. Ch-SP-MS/EuL100 displayed a release extent of 23 and 27% at pH 6.8 and 7.4, respectively. Ch-SP-MS aggregated at pH 1.2, but almost kept their initial size and shape at pH 6.8 and 7.4. Ch-SP-MS/EuL100 almost maintained their original shape and size at pH 1.2, and gradually released Ch-SP-MS at pH 6.8 and 7.4 due to dissolution of the Eudragit layer. Eudragit coating is suggested to be useful to efficiently deliver Ch-SP-MS to the intestinal disease sites. 相似文献

The effects of particle size of microspheres on the drug release from a microsphere/sucrose acetate isobutyrate (SAIB) hybrid depot (m-SAIB) was investigated to develop a long-term sustained release drug delivery system with low burst release both in vitro and in vivo. A model drug, risperidone, was first encapsulated into PLGA microspheres with different particle sizes using conventional emulsification and membrane emulsification methods. The m-SAIB was prepared by dispersing the risperidone-microspheres in the SAIB depot. The drug release from m-SAIB was double controlled by the drug diffusion from the microspheres into SAIB matrix and the drug diffusion from the SAIB matrix into the medium. Large microspheres (18.95?±?18.88?µm) prepared by the conventional homogenization method exhibited porous interior structure, which contributed to the increased drug diffusion rate from microspheres into SAIB matrix. Consequently, m-SAIB containing such microspheres showed rapid initial drug release ( Cmax?= ?110.1?±54.2?ng/ml) and subsequent slow drug release ( Cs(4–54d)=?2.7?±?0.8?ng/ml) in vivo. Small microspheres (5.91?±?2.24?µm) showed dense interior structure with a decreased drug diffusion rate from microspheres into SAIB matrix. The initial drug release from the corresponding m-SAIB was significantly decreased ( Cmax?= ?40.9?±?13.7?ng/ml), whereas the drug release rate from 4 to 54 d was increased ( Cs(4–54d)=4.1?±?1.0?ng/ml). By further decreasing the size of microspheres to 3.38?±?0.70?µm, the drug diffusion surface area was increased, which subsequently increased the drug release from the m-SAIB. These results demonstrate that drug release from the m-SAIB can be tailored by varying the size of microspheres to reduce the in vivo burst release of SAIB system alone. 相似文献

Itopride hydrochloride (ITO HCl) is a prokinetic agent, used in the treatment of gastrointestinal motility disorders. The aim of the study was to develop stable mucoadhesive thermoreversible nasal gel to avoid first pass effect. ITO HCl was incorporated into the blends of thermoreversible polymers like poloxamer 407 and various mucoadhesive polymers in different concentrations to increase the contact of the formulations with nasal mucosa. The compatibility between the drug and the suggested polymers was studied by Fourier transform infrared and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The formulations were evaluated for clarity, pH, gelation temperature, mucoadhesive strength, gel strength, viscosity, and drug content. In addition, the in vitro drug release and the dissolution efficiency (DE)% were measured. The optimized formulations that showed the highest dissolution efficiency% (DE%) in saline phosphate buffer of pH 6.4 at 35?±?0.5?°C were chosen for stability testing at temperatures of 4?±?2 and 25?±?2?°C/60?±?5% RH. It was found that F1 and F17 that contain 18% w/v poloxamer 407 and 0.5% w/v of hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose K4M or methyl cellulose (MC), respectively, showed higher stability results as indicated by their higher t90 values (days). 相似文献

To prolong the precorneal resident time and improve ocular bioavailability of the drug, Pluronic-g-poly(acrylic acid) copolymers were studied as a temperature-responsive in situ gelling vehicle for an ophthalmic drug delivery system. The rheological properties and in vitro drug release of Pluronic-g-PAA copolymer gels, as well as the in vivo resident properties of such in situ gel ophthalmic formulations, were investigated. The rheogram and in vitro drug release studies indicated that the drug release rates decreased as acrylic acid/Pluronic molar ratio and copolymer solution concentration increased. It was also shown that the drug concentration had no obvious effect on drug release. The release rates of drug from such copolymer gels were mainly dependent on the gel dissolution. In vivo resident experiments showed the drug resident time and the total resident amount increased by 4-fold and 1.2-fold for in situ gel compared with eye drops. These in vivo experimental results, along with the rheological properties and in vitro drug release studies, demonstrated that in situ gels containing Pluronic-g-PAA copolymer may significantly prolong the drug resident time and thus improve bioavailability. The results showed that the Pluronic-g-PAA copolymer can be a promising in situ gelling vehicle for ophthalmic drug delivery. 相似文献

Vesicular systems endow large opportunities for the transdermal delivery of therapeutics. The present study was designed to investigate the potential of a novel class of vesicular system ‘proniosome’ as a carrier for transdermal delivery of bromocriptine (BCT). Proniosome formulations were prepared by the coacervation-phase separation method and the influence of factors like surfactant type and its amount, lipid concentration, cholesterol amount and drug content were studied. Span 60 was the most appropriate surfactant, and yielded vesicle size and percentage encapsulation efficiency of 1.3 µm and 98.9%, respectively. The developed system was characterised w.r.t. morphology, transition temperature, drug release, skin permeation and skin irritancy. Proniosomes exhibited a sustained release pattern of BCT in vitro. Skin permeation study revealed high penetration of proniosomes with sustained release of BCT through rat skin. The optimised proniosomal formulation showed enhanced transdermal flux of 16.15 μg/cm 2/h as compared to 3.67 μg/cm 2/h for drug dispersion. The developed formulations were observed as non-irritant to the rat skin and were found as quite stable at 4 and 25 °C for 90 days w.r.t. vesicle size and drug content. The dried proniosomal formulation could act as a promising alternative to niosomes and preferably for transdermal delivery of BCT. 相似文献

In vitro drug release and transport rates from oil depot formulations under nonsink conditions have been investigated in the rotating dialysis cell model. Eight model drug compounds and eight oil vehicle compositions were used for the releaseexperiments. The experimentally obtained apparent first-order rate constants related to the drug appearance in the acceptor phase after initial instillation of a drug-containing oil solution were found to be in excellent agreement with the rate constants obtained from a theoretically derived expression. It was observed that the drug oil-water distribution coefficient was the key parameter influencing the release characteristics. As compared with ketoprofen, flurbiprofen exhibited a higher affinity for the oil, resulting in a significantly lower and more slowly decreasing drug concentrations in the aqueous donor compartment. Release profiles for prilocaine and the more lipophilic agent bupivacaine after incorporation of both drugs in fractionated coconut oil were characterized by a fast release of prilocaine, whereas bupivacaine was liberated much slower to the acceptor phase. The high oil-buffer interfacial area generated in vitro by rotation of the donor cell tends to overestimate release rates in comparison to those expected in vivo, for example, after intra-articular administration of oil solutions. The present in vitro method may constitute a valuable tool in accelerated in vitro release testing of parenteral oil depot formulations in areas comprising formulation design and product quality control. 相似文献

Carbon nanotubes exhibit many unique intrinsic physical and chemical properties and have been intensively explored for biological
and biomedical applications in the past few years. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the main results from our and
other groups in this field and clarify that surface functionalization is critical to the behavior of carbon nanotubes in biological
systems. Ultrasensitive detection of biological species with carbon nanotubes can be realized after surface passivation to
inhibit the non-specific binding of biomolecules on the hydrophobic nanotube surface. Electrical nanosensors based on nanotubes
provide a label-free approach to biological detection. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy of carbon nanotubes opens up a
method of protein microarray with detection sensitivity down to 1 fmol/L. In vitro and in vivo toxicity studies reveal that highly water soluble and serum stable nanotubes are biocompatible, nontoxic, and potentially
useful for biomedical applications. In vivo biodistributions vary with the functionalization and possibly also size of nanotubes, with a tendency to accumulate in the
reticuloendothelial system (RES), including the liver and spleen, after intravenous administration. If well functionalized,
nanotubes may be excreted mainly through the biliary pathway in feces. Carbon nanotube-based drug delivery has shown promise
in various In vitro and in vivo experiments including delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA), paclitaxel and doxorubicin. Moreover, single-walled carbon
nanotubes with various interesting intrinsic optical properties have been used as novel photoluminescence, Raman, and photoacoustic
contrast agents for imaging of cells and animals. Further multidisciplinary explorations in this field may bring new opportunities
in the realm of biomedicine.

Objective: The objective of this study was to fabricate double-walled poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microspheres to increase encapsulation efficiency and avoid rapid release of hydrophilic drugs such as meglumine antimoniate. Methods: In this study, double-walled and one-layered microspheres of PLGA were prepared using the emulsion solvent evaporation technique to better control the release of a hydrophilic drug, meglumine antimoniate (Glucantime®), which is the first choice treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis. The effect of hydrophobic coating on microspheres' size, morphology, encapsulation efficiency and drug release characteristics was evaluated. Furthermore, the presence of antimony in meglumine antimoniate made it possible to observe the drug distribution within the microspheres' cross section by means of energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Results: Drug distribution images confirmed accumulation of the drug within the inner core of double-walled microspheres. In addition, these microspheres encapsulated the drug more efficiently up to 87% and demonstrated reduced initial burst and prolonged release compared to one-layered microspheres. These superiorities make double-walled microspheres an optimum candidate for sustained delivery of hydrophilic drugs. Conclusion: Double-walled microspheres provide some advantages over traditional microspheres overcoming most of their limitations. Double-walled microspheres were found to be more efficient than their corresponding one-layered microspheres in terms of encapsulation efficiencies and release characteristics. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to optimize several process and formulation parameters, which influence the performance of a rupturable, pulsatile drug delivery system. The system consisted of a drug-containing hard gelatin capsule, a swelling layer of croscarmellose (Ac-Di-Sol®) and a binder, and an outer ethylcellulose coating. Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (Kollidon 90F) was superior to HPMC and HPC as a binder for the swelling layer with regard to binding (adherence to capsule) and disintegration properties of the swelling layer. The capsule-to-capsule uniformity in the amount of swelling layer and outer ethylcellulose coating, which significantly affected the lag time prior to rupture of the capsule, was optimized by decreasing the batch size, and by increasing the rotational pan speed and the distance between the spray nozzle and the product bed. The type of baffles used in the coating pan also affected the layering uniformity. Fully-filled hard gelatin capsules had a shorter lag time with a higher reproducibility compared to only half-filled capsules, because the swelling pressure was directed primarily to the outer ethylcellulose coating and not to the inner capsule core. Stability studies revealed that the lag time of the capsules was stable over a 240-day period when the moisture content was kept unchanged. 相似文献

The various requirements placed on materials that might serve as suitable components in drug delivery systems are discussed.
Special attention is paid to the interactions between the drug delivery constructs and the biological environment, using the
interactions in the vascular compartment of the body as an example.
Two alternative general approaches are compared: (a) “controlled drug release”, which aims to reduce or eliminate side effects
by producing a steady therapeutic concentration of drug in the body; (b) “site-selective drug delivery”, which aims to ensure
that the drug is delivered to the site of its biochemical and disease-related site of action, at the same time maintaining
the drug inactive elsewhere in the body.
It is concluded that materials for delivering drugs to selected sites of disease within the body must be designed to utilise
the unique features (structure, function, rhythm) of the main elements involved in the disease. Equally important is to design
drug carriers that do not interact non-specifically within the body so that their specific action would be prevented. It is
difficult to see how this could be achieved using materials entirely “foreign” to the body. Utilising the primary structures
used by the biological systems (proteins, glycoproteins, carbohydrates) and creating novel higher structures (secondary, tertiary,
quartenary) that mimic the native material is the logical way forward in the search for new drug delivery systems, and we
need to turn more and more to the molecular basis of biology for guidance and inspiration. 相似文献

The preparation of pH-dependent, time-based and enzyme degradable pellets was investigated for use as an oral colonic drug delivery system. It was expected that drug would be released immediately once the pellets reached the colon. The pellets were prepared using extrusion-spheronizing equipment and subsequently coated with three layers of three functional polymers by an air-suspension technique. The core consisted of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) as a model drug, CaP as an enzyme-degradable material and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as an additive. As far as the three coated layers were concerned, the outer layer was coated with Eudragit L30D-55 for protection against gastrointestinal juices, the intermediate layer was coated with ethylcellulose (EC) to inhibit drug release during passage through the small intestine, and the inner film was coated with pectin for swelling and enzyme-degradation, which required a 30, 10, and 12% weight gain, respectively. Several micromeritic properties of the core pellets, including particle size distribution, particle size, degree of circularity, and friability, were evaluated to investigate the effects of the formulations of the cores and preparation conditions. Also, dissolution testing of the cores showed that the presence of calcium pectinate (CaP) markedly increased the drug release rate from the cores, as determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In-vitro release studies indicated that the coated pellets completely protected the drug release in 0.1 mol/L HCl, while the drug release was delayed for 3-4 hr in pH 6.8 PBS. A synergistic effect of enzyme dependence for the coated pellets was seen following removal of the coated layer and during contact with colonic enzymes. Consequently, it was possible to achieve colon-specific drug delivery using this triple-dependence system. 相似文献

The aim of the present work was to prepare floating microspheres of atenolol as prolonged release multiparticulate system and evaluate it using novel multi-compartment dissolution apparatus. Atenolol loaded floating microspheres were prepared by emulsion solvent evaporation method using 3 2 full factorial design. Formulations F1 to F9 were prepared using two independent variables (polymer ratio and % polyvinyl alcohol) and evaluated for dependent variables (particle size, percentage drug entrapment efficiency and percentage buoyancy). The formulation(F8) with particle size of 329?±?2.69 µm, percentage entrapment efficiency of 61.33% and percentage buoyancy of 96.33% for 12?h was the of optimized formulation (F8). The results of factorial design revealed that the independent variables significantly affected the particle size, percentage drug entrapment efficiency and percentage buoyancy of the microspheres. In vitro drug release study revealed zero order release from F8 (98.33% in 12?h). SEM revealed the hollow cavity and smooth surface of the hollow microspheres. 相似文献

Pyridostigmine bromide (PB), a highly hygroscopic drug was selected as the model drug. A sustained-release (SR) tablet prepared by direct compression of wet-extruded and spheronized core pellets with HPMC excipients and exhibited a zero-order sustained release (SR) profile. The 2 3 full factorial design was utilized to search an optimal SR tablet formulation. This optimal formulation was followed zero-order mechanism and had specific release rate at different time intervals (released % of 1, 6, and 12 hr were 15.84, 58.56, and 93.10%). The results of moisture absorption by Karl Fischer meter showed the optimum SR tablet could improve the hygroscopic defect of the pure drug (PB). In the in vivo study, the results of the bioavailability data showed the Tmax was prolonged (from 0.65 ± 0.082 hr to 4.83 ± 1.60 hr) and AUC0-t (from 734.88 ± 230.68 ng/ml.hr to 1153.34 ± 488.08 ng/ml.hr) and was increased respectively for optimum PB-SR tablets when compared with commercial immediate release (IR) tablets. Furthermore, the percentages of in vitro dissolution and in vivo absorption in the rabbits have good correlation. We believe that PB-SR tablets designed in our study would improve defects of PB, decrease the frequency of administration and enhance the retention period of drug efficacy in vivo for personnel exposed to contamination situations in war or terrorist attacks in the future. 相似文献

Aim: The aim of this study was to prepare insulin-loaded poly(lactic acid)–polyethylene glycol microspheres that could control insulin release at least for 1 week and evaluate their in vivo performance in a streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat model. Methods: The microspheres were prepared using a water-in-oil-in-water double emulsion solvent evaporation technique. Different formulation variables influencing the yield, particle size, entrapment efficiency, and in vitro release profiles were investigated. The pharmacokinetic study of optimized formulation was performed with single dose in comparison with multiple dose of Humulin® 30/70 as a reference product in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Results: The optimized formulation of insulin microspheres was nonporous, smooth-surfaced, and spherical in structure under scanning electron microscope with a mean particle size of 3.07 ×μm and entrapment efficiency of 42.74% of the theoretical amount incorporated. The in vitro insulin release profiles was characterized by a bimodal behavior with an initial burst release because of the insulin adsorbed on the microsphere surface, followed by slower and continuous release corresponding to the insulin entrapped in polymer matrix. Conclusions: The optimized formulation and reference were comparable in the extent of absorption. Consequently, these microspheres can be proposed as new controlled parenteral delivery system. 相似文献

As an alternative to incorporation of various excipients, N4-alkyloxycarbonyl-cytosine derivatives possessing various physicochemical properties and cytosine regeneration rates have been examined to modify release rate and kinetics from in situ gelling alginate formulations, e.g., liquid formulations that gel in acidic gastric juice and release the entrapped derivative or parent cytosine. Linear relationships were obtained between the release rate constants and the square root of the solubility for suspension formulations. Calculated diffusion coefficients were observed to be similar for suspension and solution formulations; however, for in situ gelling emulsion formulations, diffusivity correlated linearly to log P. Zero-order release of parent cytosine was observed from in situ gelling suspensions of the poorly soluble acid-labile N4-adamantyloxycarbonyl-cytosine prodrug. 相似文献
