19 Polymer Micelles for Drug Delivery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Polymer micelles have been used widely in the delivery of various therapeutic drugs, which are also known as active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Recent advances in drug discovery technology, including an accumulated database on therapeutic targets, combinational chemistry, and high-throughput screening (HTS), have further increased the number of candidate compounds and constructed a huge pipeline for the discovery and development of new chemical entities (NCEs).1,2 A very large number of chemicals are hailed as new drug candidates, but almost one-third of them are poorly water soluble.3 Polymer micelles consisting of amphiphilic CONTENTS

Pluronic as nano-carier for drug delivery systems
A common approach for building a drug delivery system is to incorporate the drug within the nanocarrier that results in increased solubility, metabolic stability, and improved circulation time. However, recent developments indicate that selection of polymer nanomaterials can implement more than only inert carrier functions by being biological response modifiers. One representative of such mater...

Recently, the development of effective strategies for enhancing drug delivery to the brain has been a topic of great interest in both clinical and pharmaceutical fields. In this review, we summarize our studies evaluating nose-to-brain delivery of drugs and small interfering ribonucleic acids in combination with cell-penetrating peptide-modified polymer micelles. Our findings show that the use ...
متن کاملPreparation and evaluation of PCL-PEG-PCL micelles as potential nanocarriers for ocular delivery of dexamethasone
Objective(s): Micelles have been studied as nanoparticulate drug delivery systems for improving the topical ocular delivery of hydrophobic drugs. The objective of this study was to develop and characterize dexamethasone-loaded polycaprolactone-polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone (PCL-PEG-PCL) micelles to improve patient compliance and enhance the ocular bioavailability of poorly water-soluble ...
