Development of nonsurfactant cyclodextrin nanoparticles loaded with anticancer drug paclitaxel.
In the current formulation of clinical use paclitaxel (PCX) is associated with solubilizers that may produce severe side effects. In this study, PCX was complexed to an amphiphilic cyclodextrin (CD), 6-O-CAPRO-beta-CD, capable of forming nanoparticles spontaneously in order to mask its physicochemical properties via the formation of inclusion complexes of the drug with amphiphilic CD before the...
متن کاملHydroxycamptothecin-loaded nanoparticles enhance target drug delivery and anticancer effect
BACKGROUND Hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) has been shown to have activity against a broad spectrum of cancers. In order to enhance its tissue-specific delivery and anticancer activity, we prepared HCPT-loaded nanoparticles made from poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(gamma-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PEG-PBLG), and then studied their release characteristics, pharmacokinetic characteristics, and anticancer effects...
متن کاملAnticancer drug delivery with nanoparticles.
Nanotechnology provides a variety of nanoscale tools for medicine. Among them nanoparticles are revolutionizing the field of drug delivery. These drug nanocarriers have the potential to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of a drug, since they can be engineered to modulate the release and the stability and to prolong the circulation time of a drug, protecting it from elimination by phagocytic cell...
متن کاملActivation of Latent HIV Using Drug-Loaded Nanoparticles
Antiretroviral therapy is currently only capable of controlling HIV replication rather than completely eradicating virus from patients. This is due in part to the establishment of a latent virus reservoir in resting CD4+ T cells, which persists even in the presence of HAART. It is thought that forced activation of latently infected cells could induce virus production, allowing targeting of the ...
متن کاملAnticancer drug-loaded multifunctional nanoparticles to enhance the chemotherapeutic efficacy in lung cancer metastasis
BACKGROUND Inhalation of chemotherapeutic drugs directly into the lungs augments the drug exposure to lung cancers. The inhalation of free drugs however results in over exposure and causes severe adverse effect to normal cells. In the present study, epidermal growth factor (EGF)-modified gelatin nanoparticles (EGNP) was developed to administer doxorubicin (DOX) to lung cancers. RESULTS The EG...
