Intraoral Drug Delivery: Bridging the Gap Between Academic Research and Industrial Innovations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Intraoral drug delivery offers a promising route for systemic and localized therapies, yet challenges such as enzymatic degradation, limited permeability, and microbial interactions hinder efficacy. This figure highlights innovative strategies—mucoadhesive materials, enzyme inhibitors, and permeation enhancers—to overcome these barriers.

A novel panel of mouse models to evaluate the role of human pregnane X receptor and constitutive androstane receptor in drug response [PDF]

, 2008
The pregnane X receptor (PXR) and the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) are closely related orphan nuclear hormone receptors that play a critical role as xenobiotic sensors in mammals.

Permeation Enhancer‐based Ionogel Shows Remarkable Potential for Oral Insulin Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes a novel formulation of decanoate in an ionic liquid inspired drug delivery system. The formulation demonstrates ideal physicochemical and material properties for oral peptide delivery. Findings indicate that choline decanoate (1:2 molar ratio) forms a viscoelastic gel that enables high oral bioavailability of insulin in rats ...

Intravenous midazolam infusion for sedation of infants in the neonatal intensive care unit.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2017
BACKGROUND Proper sedation for neonates undergoing uncomfortable procedures may reduce stress and avoid complications. Midazolam is a short-acting benzodiazepine that is used increasingly in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs).

Safety Evaluation of Repeated Application of Polymeric Microarray Patches in Miniature Pigs

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the safety of repeated application of three types of microarray patches (MAPs), hydrogelforming, dissolving, and implantable, over four weeks in miniature pigs. No adverse skin or systemic effects were observed, supporting the clinical potential of MAPs as safe and effective drug delivery platforms.

Clinically applicable GABA receptor positive allosteric modulators promote ß-cell replication. [PDF]

, 2017
A key goal of diabetes research is to develop treatments to safely promote human ß-cell replication. It has recently become appreciated that activation of γ-aminobutyric acid receptors (GABA-Rs) on ß-cells can promote their survival and replication.

Fluorescence Label‐Free Doxorubicin Sensor Using Polystyrene Sulfonate as a Synthetic Receptor in Whispering Gallery Mode Microresonators

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
The illustration showcases resonant optical microsensors for Doxorubicin (DXR) detection, using polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) as a synthetic receptor. PSS is deposited as a nanometer‐thick layer on fluorescent microparticles via layer‐by‐layer assembly. DXR‐PSS interaction is depicted, highlighting its effect on the sensor's resonant modes.

Oral administration of a low dose of midazolam (75μg) as an in vivo probe for CYP3A activity [PDF]

, 2018
Objective: We investigated whether the oral administration of a low dose (75µg) of midazolam, a CYP3A probe, can be used to measure the in vivo CYP3A activity.
