Sodium cholate-enhanced polymeric micelle system for tumor-targeting delivery of paclitaxel

Sodium cholate-enhanced polymeric micelle system for tumor-targeting delivery of paclitaxel

Purpose Polymeric micelles are attractive nanocarriers for tumor-targeted delivery of paclitaxel (PTX). High antitumor efficacy and low toxicity require that PTX mainly accumulated in tumors with little drug exposure to normal tissues. However, many PTX-loaded micelle formulations suffer from low stability, fast drug release, and lack of tumor-targeting capability in the circulation. To overcom...

Hydrotropic polymer micelle system for delivery of paclitaxel.

Hydrotropic polymer micelle system has been developed for delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs such as paclitaxel. Hydrotropic polymers based on N,N-diethylnicotinamide were synthesized and used as a hydrophobic block for constructing amphiphilic block copolymers. The hydrotropic block copolymers self-assembled to form micelles in aqueous media. The size of the prepared polymer micelles was i...

A biomimetic and pH-sensitive polymeric micelle as carrier for paclitaxel delivery

As nano-scale drug delivery systems, smart micelles that are sensitive to specific biological environment and allowed for target site-triggered drug release by reversible stabilization of micelle structure are attractive. In this work, a biocompatible and pH-sensitive copolymer is synthesized through bridging poly (2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) (PMPC) block and poly (D, L-lactide) (...

Development of enoxaparin sodium polymeric microparticles for colon-specific delivery

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Recent studies have shown that low molecular weight heparins are effective in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. Therefore, there is considerable interest in the development of an oral colonic delivery pharmaceutical system allowing targeted release of heparin in the inflamed tissue. The objective of this study was to prepare microparticles for the oral administrat...
