Mono‐ and Bivalent Poly(iso‐butylene)‐Alanines for Drug‐Delivery of Nimodipine and Triamcinolone Acetonide

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Mono‐ and bivalent‐, alanine‐modified poly‐iso‐butylenes, folding into beta‐sheets, were prepared by living carbocationic polymerization and subsequent endgroup modification. These PIB‐conjugates are useful as solid polymers for the drug release of triamcinolone and nimodipine. ABSTRACT Poly‐iso‐butylene (PIB) is a well known biocompatible polymer with

Drug eluting stents a nightmare? [PDF]

open access: yesInteractive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2007
As a contribution to the controversial discussion for the use of drug-eluting stents, the European Heart Institute of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts is emphasizing important factors: a) drug eluting stents (DES) should be used only in accordance with their on-label indications for use; b) to avoid off-label use of DES and to assure that ...

The future of drug-eluting stents

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2008
This review aims to provide a glimpse into the future of drug-eluting stents (DES). Since their arrival in 2002, DES have transformed the practice of interventional cardiology by drastically reducing restenosis and the need for repeat revascularization.
