Targeted drug delivery to endothelial cells lining the vasculature can improve treatment of many pathologies. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), a transmembrane glycoprotein overexpressed in many diseases, is a good determinant for endothelial targeting of drug nanoparticles (NPs). In this study we synthesized surfactant-free, FITC-labeled poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) NPs coate...

Current nonviral genetic vaccine systems are less effective than viral vaccines, particularly in cancer systems where epitopes can be weakly immunogenic and antigen-presenting cell processing and presentation to T cells is down-regulated. A promising nonviral delivery method for genetic vaccines involves microencapsulation of antigen-encoding DNA, because such particles protect plasmid payloads...

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the potential differentiation ability of gingiva originated human mesenchymal stem cell in the presence of tacrolimus. Tacrolimus-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres were prepared using electrospraying technique. In vitro release study of tacrolimus-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres was performed in phosphate-buffered sal...

Imine-containing bridging groups were formed during self-assembly of periodic mesoporous organosilicas by in situ dynamic covalent chemistry of aldehyde and amine groups in the presence of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(dl-lactic acid-co-glycolic acid)-poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymer in acidic aqueous solutions.

Nanoparticle formulation is a recently developed drug delivery technology with enhanced targeting potential. Nanoparticles encapsulate the of choice and delivers it to target via molecules (ex. antigen) located on nanoparticle surface. can even be targeted deeply penetrating tissue modeled deliver drugs through blood brain barrier. These advancements are providing better disease such as cancer ...

INTRODUCTION Extensively used polymers in biomedical applications are naturally occurring or synthetic compounds consisting of large molecules obtained from linking of simple monomers. Potential biomedical applications of these polymers include carrier based drug delivery systems, tissue engineering scaffold and cell culture supports [1]. Polymer based drug delivery system can control the rate ...
