Carrier Deformability in Drug Delivery

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2016
Deformability is a key property of drug carriers used to increase the mass penetration across the skin without disrupting the lipid barrier. Highly deformable vesicles proved to be more effective than conventional liposomes in delivering drugs into and across the mammalian skin upon topical non occlusive application.

Polymeric microspheres as drug carriers

Biomaterials, 1988
The use of polymeric microsphere systems (including polypeptides) as vehicles for delivering drugs by a variety of routes is considered with particular reference to parenteral administration. Microsphere formulation is discussed with emphasis on the role of surface properties and how these can determine the fate of administered particles.

Driving forces for drug loading in drug carriers

Journal of Microencapsulation, 2015
The loading capacity of a drug carrier is determined essentially by intermolecular interactions between drugs and carrier materials. In this review, the process of drug loading is described in detail based on the differences in the driving force for drug incorporation, including hydrophobic interaction, electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding, Pi ...

Site-Specific Drug Carriers

Engineering in Medicine, 1986
Site-specific drug carriers are required to exclusively deliver drug molecules to difficult targets within the body. They should do so in a form which protects the drug and host from one another. This contribution reviews the reasons for drug targeting, and describes some of the features required of two types of carrier system, i.e., particulates and ...

Molecular Insights into the Effects of Media–Drug and Carrier–Drug Interactions on pH-Responsive Drug Carriers

Molecular Pharmaceutics, 2018
We have performed two sets of all atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) oligomers, considered as a model pH-responsive drug carrier. In the first set, multiple oligomers of PAA are simulated in model gastric and intestinal fluids, where the degree of deprotonation of PAA oligomers is varied with the medium pH.

Peptide vectors as drug carriers

2003
During the last decade, several peptides have been described, such as SynB vectors [1] penetratin and Tat [2, 3] that allow the intracellular delivery of polar, biologically active compounds in vitro and in vivo [2, 4]. These peptides, belonging to various families, are heterogeneous in size (10 to 18 amino acids) and sequence (Tab. 1).

Lipid Formulation as a Drug Carrier for Drug Delivery

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2002
In recent years, a Drug Delivery System (DDS), a preparative approach attracts the attention in the development of new drugs. DDS focuses on the regulation of the in vivo dynamics, such as absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination, thereby improving the effectiveness and the safety of the drugs by an applicable use of drug preparation ...

Liposome as a drug carrier

Asian Journal of Research in Pharmaceutical Science, 2019
One of various talented new drug delivery systems, liposomes characterize an advanced technology to deliver active molecules to the site of action, and at present, several formulations are in clinical use. The liposome consist of phospholipids, which have phosphoric acid sides to form the liposome players.

Drug targeting by drug entrapment into ultrafine compartments as carriers

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 1984
The incorporation of drugs into vesicles is one of several technological methods for the optimization of targeted drug delivery and controlled drug targeting. The main problems will always remain: To design inert auxiliary accompanying materials in order to overcome side reactions; To use body-friendly and biodegradable macromolecular carrier materials
