Tiny dexamethasone palmitate nanoparticles for intravitreal injection: Optimization and in vivo evaluation

نویسندگان

چکیده

Tiny nanoparticles of dexamethasone palmitate (DXP) were designed as transparent suspensions for intravitreal administration to treat age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The influence three surfactants (PEG-40-stearate and Pluronic block copolymers F68 F127) on size stability was investigated led an optimal formulation based F127 stabilizing DXP nanoparticles. Size measurements TEM revealed tiny (around 35 nm) with a low opacity, compatible further injection. X-Ray powder diffraction (XRPD) transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) performed freeze-dried samples showed that rather monodisperse amorphous. efficacy assessed in vivo pigmented rabbits unilateral injections. After breakdown the blood-retinal barrier (BRB) induced by injection rhVEGF165 carrier protein, restoration BRB 1 month after their However, limited time most probably clearance 2 months due small size.

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...

Comparison of In Vivo Gene Expression Profiling of RPE/Choroid following Intravitreal Injection of Dexamethasone and Triamcinolone Acetonide

Purpose. To identify retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/choroid genes and their relevant expression pathways affected by intravitreal injections of dexamethasone and triamcinolone acetonide in mice at clinically relevant time points for patient care. Methods. Differential gene expression of over 34,000 well-characterized mouse genes in the RPE/choroid of 6-week-old C57BL/6J mice was analyzed afte...
