Peptide-Coated Liposomal Fasudil Enhances Site Specific Vasodilation in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
This study sought to develop a liposomal delivery system of fasudil--an investigational drug for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)--that will preferentially accumulate in the PAH lungs. Liposomal fasudil was prepared by film-hydration method, and the drug was encapsulated by active loading. The liposome surface was coated with a targeting moiety, CARSKNKDC, a cyclic peptide...
متن کاملLiposomal fasudil, a rho-kinase inhibitor, for prolonged pulmonary preferential vasodilation in pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Current pharmacological interventions for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) require continuous infusions, multiple inhalations, or oral administration of drugs that act on various pathways involved in the pathogenesis of PAH. However, invasive methods of administration, short duration of action, and lack of pulmonary selectivity result in noncompliance and poor patient outcomes. In this stu...
متن کاملPeptide and Protein Delivery at a Glance
Peptide and protein drugs have found an important position in therapeutics. Recent advances in pharmaceutical biotechnology have led to an increase in the number of protein products in the market. As these therapeutic proteins and peptides are made available, it will be essential to formulate these drugs into safe and effective delivery systems. The twenty different naturally occurring amin...

متن کاملPulmonary delivery of insulin by liposomal carriers.
Growing attention has been given to the potential of a pulmonary route as a non-invasive administration for systemic delivery of therapeutic agents (mainly peptides and proteins). The lungs provide a large absorptive surface area, extremely thin absorptive mucosal membrane, and good blood supply. The non-invasive nature of this pathway makes it especially valuable for the delivery of large mole...
