Characterization of Different Functionalized Lipidic Nanocapsules as Potential Drug Carriers
Lipid nanocapsules (LNC) based on a core-shell structure consisting of an oil-filled core with a surrounding polymer layer are known to be promising vehicles for the delivery of hydrophobic drugs in the new therapeutic strategies in anti-cancer treatments. The present work has been designed as basic research about different LNC systems. We have synthesized-and physico-chemically characterized-t...
متن کاملLiposomes as drug carriers.
Liposomes are artificially prepared vesicles made of lipid bilayer. Liposomes can be filled with drugs, and used to deliver drugs for cancer and other diseases. Amongst the various carrier, few drug carrier reached the stages of clinical trails where phospholipid vesicles (liposome) show strong potential for effective drug delivery to the site of action. Liposomes can be composed of naturally-d...
متن کاملPolymeric Microparticles as Alternative Carriers for Antidiabetic Glibenclamide Drug
Background: Glibenclamide is a lipophilic drug widely used in type 2 diabetes treatment. However, its low bioavailability limits its use. Thus, novel formulations should be applied to improve the drug’s bioavailability. Objectives: This study aimed to develop alternative carriers for oral delivery of glibenclamide. For this purpose, two biocompatible polymers, poly(e-caprolactone) and poly(but...
متن کاملDrug delivery and controlled release from biocompatible metalorganic frameworks using mechanical amorphization
We have used a family of Zr-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with different functionalized (bromo, nitro and amino) and extended linkers for drug delivery. We loaded the materials with the fluorescent model molecule calcein and the anticancer drug a-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (a-CHC), and consequently performed a mechanical amorphization process to attempt to control the delivery of gues...
متن کاملCalcium l-Lactate Frameworks as Naturally Degradable Carriers for Pesticides.
Two porous, chiral metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), Ca14(l-lactate)20(acetate)8(C2H5OH)(H2O) (MOF-1201) and Ca6(l-lactate)3(acetate)9(H2O) (MOF-1203), are constructed from Ca2+ ions and l-lactate [CH3CH(OH)COO-], where Ca2+ ions are bridged by the carboxylate and hydroxyl groups of lactate and the carboxylate group of acetate to give a three-dimensional arrangement of Ca(-COO, -OH) polyhedra su...
