Designing dapsone polymer conjugates for controlled drug delivery.
UNLABELLED Polymer-drug conjugates have significantly influenced polymer therapeutics over the last decade via controlled pharmacokinetics. Dapsone (4,4'-diamino diphenylsulphone) is not only widely used in the treatment of leprosy but forms an essential component in the treatment of autoimmune inflammatory diseases and malaria. However, its low bioavailability and non-specific distribution in ...
متن کاملCovalent polymer-drug conjugates.
In this work, polymer-drugs conjugates used as drug delivery systems (DDS) are revised attending to their chemical conjugation. Namely, the classification of this type of DDS is based on the conjugation sites of the reactive groups (i.e., via end groups or pendant polymer groups). Advantages and limitations of these types of DDS are discussed through representative examples of polymer-drugs and...
متن کاملDesigning polymer conjugates as lysosomotropic nanomedicines.
Marriage of cell biology (the concept of 'lysosomotropic drug delivery') and the realization that water-soluble synthetic polymers might provide an ideal platform for targeted drug delivery led to the first synthetic polymer-drug conjugates that entered clinical trials as anticancer agents. Conceptually, polymer conjugates share many features with other macromolecular drugs, but they have the a...
متن کاملBiodegradable Polymer Microneedles for Controlled-release Drug Delivery
Biopharmaceuticals, which include proteins, DNA, vaccines and other biologically related molecules, make up one of the fastest growing segments of the overall pharmaceutical market. However, there are significant delivery limitations. Specifically, oral delivery is difficult due to Poor absorption and degradation that occurs in the GI tract and liver and more sensitive drugs including proteins ...
متن کاملSilk fibroin as an organic polymer for controlled drug delivery.
The pharmaceutical utility of silk fibroin (SF) materials for drug delivery was investigated. SF films were prepared from aqueous solutions of the fibroin protein polymer and crystallinity was induced and controlled by methanol treatment. Dextrans of different molecular weights, as well as proteins, were physically entrapped into the drug delivery device during processing into films. Drug relea...
