Novel ibuprofen medoxomil prodrug: Design, synthesis and in vitro stability evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Synthesis of medoxomil prodrug of ibuprofen (IM) was described. Its stabilities at different pH environments encountered in the gastrointestinal tract and in rat plasma in vitro were tested. Results demonstrated that esterase play an important role in the activation of IM. It can pass through the stomach without degradation, and with very slow degradation in intestinal tract, which indicated that IM may be absorbed with prototype in intestinal tract. While,after absorption, IM can be hydrolized very quickly by esterase in plasma. These results indicate that IM has the characteristics of prodrug.

Synthesis of a novel PEGylated colon-specific azo-based 4- aminosalicylic acid prodrug
Objective(s): 4-aminosalicylic acid (4-ASA) is an isomer of mesalazine that has recently been shown to be effective against inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and more specifically, ulcerative colitis. However, the majority of orally administered 4-ASA is readily and extensively absorbed from the stomach and small intestine, so only a small amount is transported to the ...
متن کاملPreparation of acrylic-type derivative of ibuprofen and in vitro evaluation studies of its polymeric prodrugs
Acrylic-type polymeric systems having degradable ester bonds linked to ibuprofen were synthesized and evaluated as materials for drug delivery. Ibuprofen, as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, was linked to 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate by activated ester methodology in one-pot procedure. The resulting methacrylic derivative of ibuprofen was copolymerized with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and...

Acetylcholinesterase has important role in synaptic cleft. It breaks down the acetylcholineatcholinergic synapsesand terminates the cholinergic effects. Some chemical agents likeorganophosphorus compounds (OPCs) including nerve agents and pesticides react withacetylcholinesteraseirreversibly. They inhibit normal biological enzyme action and resultin accumulation of acetylcholineand show toxic e...
