PLGA/TPGS Nanoparticles for Controlled Release of Paclitaxel: Effects of the Emulsifier and Drug Loading Ratio 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
PURPOSE: We successfully manufactured nanoparticles of biodegradable polymers for controlled release of paclitaxel. TPGS (d-alpha-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate) could be a novel material to make nanoparticles of high drug encapsulation efficiency (EE) and desired physicochemical and pharmaceutical properties of the drug loaded nanoparticles. Among various controlling parameters in the process, the present work is to elucidate the effects of the surfactant stabilizer and the drug loading ratio. METHODS: Paclitaxel loaded PLGA nanoparticles were formulated at various drug-loading ratios by a modified single emulsion solvent extraction/evaporation technique. TPGS was introduced either as the emulsifier or as a matrix material component by using different technique. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was also used for a comparison. The nanoparticles of various recipes were characterized by various state-of-the-art instrument technology for their properties. RESULTS: The EE and the in vitro release behavior were found significantly influenced by the drug loading ratio and the surfactant stabilizer encountered. TPGS involved nanoparticles can have high EE and other favorable properties. CONCLUSIONS: TPGS could be a novel and effective emulsifier, which can result in high EE and desired properties of paclitaxel-loaded polymeric nanoparticles. 相似文献

We developed a simple two-dimensional/two-components theoretical model that describes the structure and functionality of a VitE-TPGS system of micelles assuming a hydrophobic inner core and an outer hydrated hydrophilic shell. We then conceptually applied the developed methodology to a simple system of VitE-TPGS micelles unloaded and loaded with an active pharmaceutical ingredient, eltrombopag, to verify if the model could reliably monitor the size change of the micelle upon loading. The fit of laboratory Small Angle X-Ray Scattering data against such model allows us to extract absolute values of the micelles size under a spherical shape hypothesis as well as the distribution within the system between components and level of hydration. The intensity scale of the SAXS experimental data needs to be normalized to a reference standard (pure water) to get absolute scattered intensities. The mathematical model which has been developed under a general hypothesis of ellipsoidal micelles, is applied to our experimental data under the simplified spherical assumption, which suitably fits our experimental data. 相似文献

Surface-modified poly(d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated via nanoprecipitation for obtaining therapeutic concentration of paclitaxel (PTX) in brain tumor. The cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of NPs were evaluated on C6 glioma cells in vitro, and BALB/c mice were used to study the brain penetration and biodistribution upon intravenous administration. Results showed that by finely tuning nanoprecipitation parameters, PLGA NPs coated with surfactants with a size around 150 nm could provide a sustained release of PTX for >2 weeks. Surface coatings could increase cellular uptake efficiency when compared with noncoated NPs, and d-α-tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) showed the most significant enhancement. The in vivo evaluation of TPGS-PLGA NPs showed amplified accumulation (>800% after 96 h) of PTX in the brain tissue when compared with bare NPs and Taxol®. Therefore, PLGA-NPs with PLGA-TPGS coating demonstrate a promising approach to efficiently transport PTX across blood-brain barrier in a safer manner, with the advantages of easy formulation, lower production cost, and higher encapsulation efficiency. 相似文献

Purpose
Transferrin receptor (TfR) is up-regulated in various malignant tumors not only to meet the iron requirement, but also to increase the cell survival via participation in various cellular signaling pathways. Here we explored transferrin as ligand for Poly(ethylene Glycol) (PEG)-ylated vitamin-E/lipid (PE) core micelles (VPM).Methods
Transferrin modified polymer was synthesized and drug loaded micelles were evaluated in 2D Hela and HepG2 cancer cells for cellular uptake and cytotoxicity and in 3D Hela spheroids for growth inhibition, uptake and penetration studies.Results
Targeted (Tf-VPM) and non-targeted (VPM) micelles showed mean hydrodynamic diameter of 114.2?±?0.64 nm and 117.4?±?0.72 nm and zeta potential was ?22.8?±?0.62 and ?14.8?±?1.74 mV, respectively. Cellular uptake study indicated that the Tf-CVPM were taken up by cancer cells (Hela and HepG2) with higher efficiency. Enhanced cytotoxicity was demonstrated for Tf-VPM compared to CVPM. Marked spheroid growth inhibition following treatment with Tf-CVPM was observed compared to the treatment with non-targeted CVPM.Conclusions
The developed transferrin-modified micelles have improved ability to solubilize the loaded drugs and could actively target solid tumors by its interaction with over-expressed transferrin receptors. Therefore, the nano-micelles could be further explored for its potential utilization in cancer therapy.7.

Purpose
The purpose of this work was the development of a multicompartimental nanocarrier for the simultaneous encapsulation of paclitaxel (PTX) and genistein (GEN), associating antiangiogenic and cytotoxic properties in order to potentiate antitumoral activity.Method
Polymeric nanocapsules containing PTX were obtained by interfacial deposition of preformed polymer and coated with a phospholipid bilayer entrapping GEN. Physical-chemical and morphological characteristics were characterized, including size and size distribution, drug entrapment efficiency and drug release profile. In vivo studies were performed in EAT bearing Swiss mice.Results
Entrapment efficiency for both drugs in the nanoparticles was approximately 98%. Average particle diameter was 150 nm with a monomodal distribution. In vitro assays showed distinct temporal drug release profiles for each drug. The dose of 0.2 mg/kg/day of PTX resulted in 11% tumor inhibition, however the association of 12 mg/kg/day of GEN promoted 44% tumor inhibition and a 58% decrease in VEGF levels.Conclusions
Nanoparticles containing GEN and PTX with a temporal pattern of drug release indicated that the combined effect of cytotoxic and antiangiogenic drugs present in the formulation contributed to the overall enhanced antitumor activity of the nanomedicine. 相似文献8.

SUMMARY Studies have attempted to identify the characteristics of substance-abusing clients that are related to premature termination from alcohol and drug treatment. Few studies, however, have looked at predictors of loss to follow-up among drug users participating in HIV/AIDS prevention projects. This paper develops and tests models of program retention employing data from approximately 250 not-in-treatment drug users enrolled in an outreach based HIV risk reduction program. Logistic regression was used to fit a model which included measures of: (1) demographic characteristics including: age and ethnicity; (2) social environmental factors including: living situation and type of network connection; (3) risk behaviors including: composite scores for drug use in the past 30 days and history of Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs); and (4) program factors including: outreach workers' knowledge of clients and number of intervention sessions received. Findings suggest that social environmental and program factors are most predictive of client retention in the program. Implications for ways in which to monitor retention of out-of-treatment drug users participating in AIDS prevention programs are addressed. 相似文献

Objective. To change the structure of a required pharmacy management course to make it more interactive and engaging for students.Design. The course is a required component of undergraduate curriculum and is completed over 2 semesters during the students’ third year. Changes included requiring students to lead classroom discussions and complete a business plan in groups.Assessment. A questionnaire centering on methods of delivery, course content, and outcomes was distributed in 2 academic years, with 74.7% of students responding. Even though the redesigned course required more time, there was strong support for the course among students because they realized the content contributed to their learning. Conclusion. A major course redesign is a big commitment by faculty members, but if done through consultations with former and current students, it can be rewarding for all involved. Students overwhelmingly embraced the changes to the course as they realized the restructuring and the resulting increase in workload were necessary to raise the relevance of the course to their future professional practice. 相似文献

This study was aimed at increasing the clinical usefulness of clinical pharmacological advice (CPA) for personalized drug dosing based on therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Educational and organizational interventions focused on improving the knowledge of clinical pharmacology among hospital healthcare workers and reducing the incidence of errors throughout the process were planned. After a pre‐interventional period of risk assessment, different list forms of the types of error occurring in the various phases of the process (Phase 1, request for CPA and blood sampling for TDM; Phase 2, sample delivery to and check in at the CPU; Phase 3, TDM execution and CPA production) were created. In the interventional period, the errors were collected daily and educational programmes were carried out. The pre‐intervention error rate was 19.5%, and resulted significantly higher for the requests coming from the medical wards compared with those from the surgical wards or the ICUs (26.0% versus 10.5% versus 13.7%, p < 0.001). The educational programme trained 303 nurses and 145 physicians. Afterwards, the error percentage progressively dropped (15.5% in the 2nd trimester; 12.3% in the 3rd one; 10.5% in the 4th one). The adopted strategy resulted in significant improvements which may be useful both to improve quality of patient care and to reduce waste in healthcare costs. 相似文献

Purpose. In previous papers, a linear relationship between drug particle size and drug percolation threshold was found in inert matrix tablets. The main objectives of the present work are: to study the influence of the excipient particle size on the drug percolation threshold and to investigate if the change in the drug percolation threshold is due either to the absolute or to the relative drug particle size.
Methods. Matrix tablets have been prepared using KC1 (7 different particle size fractions) as a drug model and Eudragit® RS-PM (4 granulommetric fractions) as matrix forming material. In vitro release assays were carried out on the 66 lots of tablets. The drug percolation thresholds were estimated following the method of Bonny and Leuenberger.
Results. The particle size of the excipient has shown an opposite effect to the drug size on the drug percolation threshold. Nevertheless, the influence of drug and excipient sizes on the drug percolation threshold are of the same magnitude.
Conclusions. The drug percolation threshold depends linearly on the relative drug particle size. This finding is in agreement with percolation theory and can facilitate the use of the percolation threshold as a preformulation parameter to improve the pharmaceutical dosage forms design. 相似文献

It is of great challenge to predict human brain penetration for substrates of multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), 2 major efflux transporters at blood-brain barrier. Thus, a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model with the incorporation of in vitro MDR1 and BCRP transporter function data and transporter protein expression levels has been developed. As such, it is crucial to generate MDR1 and BCRP substrate data with a high fidelity. In this study, 2 widely used human MDR1 cell lines from Borst and National Institutes of Health laboratories were evaluated using rodent brain penetration data, and the study suggested that the MDR1 expressed in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line from National Institutes of Health laboratory predicted brain penetration better, particularly for compounds with a high passive permeability. In addition, human BCRP-MDCK cell line with 1 μM PSC833, a specific MDR1 inhibitor, demonstrated the ability to identify BCRP substrates without the confounding of endogenous canine Mdr1. Comparison of human BCRP and mouse Bcrp transporter functions revealed that the functional differences of BCRP between the 2 species is minimal. The incorporation of both the validated MDR1 and BCRP assays into our brain PBPK model has significantly improved the prediction for the brain penetration of MDR1 and BCRP substrates across species. 相似文献

The present paper reports the results of an intervention study with baseline and post treatment measures that was conducted to test the feasibility and impact of a structured treatment package. The latter was used by professionals in the primary care setting working with relatives of people with alcohol and drug problems. The package consisting of a brief psycho-social intervention and information leaflets was tested by a) measuring the impact of the intervention on relatives' stress and coping and b) assessing the feasibility of training General Practitioners, Practice Nurses and Health Visitors to use the package as well as the impact of using the package upon their attitudes and confidence towards working with this group. Both relatives' coping and symptoms and the primary care professionals attitudes and confidence towards working with this group were measured twice, once before and again after the intervention. It was found that following the intervention relatives showed a significant decrease in physical and psychological symptoms and a reduction in engaged and tolerant forms of coping. In addition a significant improvement was found in the confidence and attitudes of the group of professionals who tested the intervention when compared to those who did not. It is concluded that given a coherent package and ongoing support, primary care professionals can be recruited and trained to work with relatives of alcohol and drug users in their health care setting. This work results in positive outcomes for these relatives. 相似文献
