Elastic vesicles: interaction with human skin and drug transport.
The most superficial layer of the skin, the stratum corneum, is the major barrier for permeation of most drugs. In order to increase the efficiency of drugs delivered via the skin, there is a demand for new transdermal drug delivery systems. Over the last two decades vesicles have been explored as potential carriers for drugs with the aim to facilitate drug transport across the stratum corneum....
متن کاملMathematical Modelling of Chemical Diffusion through Skin
The skin forms the interface between the body and the external environment. It has several functions including thermal regulation, sensory perception, excretion, and as a barrier to protect against infection, dehydration and chemical assault. Its role as a water barrier is critical to our ability to survive on land, and any significant departure from normal barrier function leads to serious hea...
متن کاملEnhanced transport through desorption-mediated diffusion.
We present a master equation approach to the study of the bulk-mediated surface diffusion mechanism in a three-dimensional confined domain. The proposed scheme allowed us to evaluate analytically a number of magnitudes that were used to characterize the efficiency of the bulk-mediated surface transport mechanism, for instance, the mean escape time from the domain, and the mean number of distinc...
متن کاملRatcheted diffusion transport through crowded nanochannels
The problem of transport through nanochannels is one of the major questions in cell biology, with a wide range of applications. In this paper we discuss the process of spontaneous translocation of molecules (Brownian particles) by ratcheted diffusion: a problem relevant for protein translocation along bacterial flagella or injectosome complex, or DNA translocation by bacteriophages. We use mole...
متن کاملDiffusion profile of macromolecules within and between human skin layers for (trans)dermal drug delivery.
Delivering a drug into and through the skin is of interest as the skin can act as an alternative drug administration route for oral delivery. The development of new delivery methods, such as microneedles, makes it possible to not only deliver small molecules into the skin, which are able to pass the outer layer of the skin in therapeutic amounts, but also macromolecules. To provide insight into...
