Dissolving microneedle vaccine delivery systems
It iswell-established that the transdermal route is an attractive alternative for minimally-invasive drug delivery. The potential of the skin as a site for vaccine delivery has been demonstrated over the past decade, with research indicating stronger immune responses and improved duration of immunity compared with conventional intramuscular administration. Benefits of this minimally invasive va...
متن کاملMicroneedle patches for vaccine delivery
In today's medical industry, the range of vaccines that exist for administration in humans represents an eclectic variety of forms and immunologic mechanisms. Namely, these are the live attenuated viruses, inactivated viruses, subunit proteins, and virus-like particles for treating virus-caused diseases, as well as the bacterial-based polysaccharide, protein, and conjugated vaccines. Currently,...
متن کاملMicroneedle-based drug delivery systems: microfabrication, drug delivery, and safety.
Many promising therapeutic agents are limited by their inability to reach the systemic circulation, due to the excellent barrier properties of biological membranes, such as the stratum corneum (SC) of the skin or the sclera/cornea of the eye and others. The outermost layer of the skin, the SC, is the principal barrier to topically-applied medications. The intact SC thus provides the main barrie...
متن کاملHydrogel-Forming Microneedle Arrays for Enhanced Transdermal Drug Delivery
Unique microneedle arrays prepared from crosslinked polymers, which contain no drug themselves, are described. They rapidly take up skin interstitial fluid upon skin insertion to form continuous, unblockable, hydrogel conduits from attached patch-type drug reservoirs to the dermal microcirculation. Importantly, such microneedles, which can be fabricated in a wide range of patch sizes and micron...
متن کاملFabrication of polymeric microneedle arrays containing Amphotericin-B for transdermal drug delivery
Background and Aim: Drug delivery through the microneedle array has been considered as an easy and non-invasive method in recent years. The purpose of this study was to design and construct an array of biodegradable polymeric microneedles containing Amphotericin-B to introduce this system and its use in the treatment of cutaneous lesions caused by Leishmania major parasite inoculation as a mode...
