A novel macromolecular prodrug concept exploiting endogenous serum albumin as a drug carrier for cancer chemotherapy.
Introduction. Serum proteins are potential drug carriers of antineoplastic agents due to their accumulation in tumor tissue.1 Uptake of these proteins in solid tumors is mediated by a number of factors including an increased metabolic activity of tumors, an enhanced vascular permeability of tumor blood vessels for circulating macromolecules, and a lack of a functional lymphatic drainage system ...
متن کاملAlbumin: A Versatile Drug Carrier
Albumin is a multifaceted, highly soluble, stable, non toxic, non poisonous, biocompatible and biodegradable plasma protein. Because of its versatile nature, it can be used for the delivery of the drugs, hormones, metals and fatty acids by binding to its specific binding sites. The structure, location, size, charge and hydrophobicity of these drug binding sites are very important to optimize th...
متن کاملStudies on thermal aggregation of bovine serum albumin as a drug carrier.
The irreversible thermal aggregation rate and process of bovine serum albumin (BSA) were investigated by means of light scattering technique as a function of temperature. The increasing rate of particle radius was affected by the aggregation temperature, concentration and the presence of fatty acid. The particle radius was larger and the aggregation rate was faster for fatty acid free BSA at hi...
متن کاملBovine serum albumin nanoparticles as controlled release carrier for local drug delivery to the inner ear
Nanoparticles have attracted increasing attention for local drug delivery to the inner ear recently. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanoparticles were prepared by desolvation method followed by glutaraldehyde fixation or heat denaturation. The nanoparticles were spherical in shape with an average diameter of 492 nm. The heat-denatured nanoparticles had good cytocompatibility. The nanoparticles coul...
متن کاملProlonged Release Evaluation of an Injectable Anticancer Drug using Human Serum Albumin Nanoparticle
Human serum albumin nanoparticles (HSA-NPs) were synthesized using the modified desolvation method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), electronic absorption spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Zeta Sizer as well as field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) of the sample confirmed the formation of HSA NPs with an average size of 68 nm. The obtained results shown that HSA-NPs was succ...
