Protein-loaded PLGA–PEG–PLGA microspheres: A tool for cell therapy
A promising strategy to repair injured organs is possible by delivering a growth factor via poly-(d,l lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microspheres; the latter are coated with adhesion molecules that serve as a support for cell delivery. At present, PLGA is not the optimal choice of polymer because of poor or incomplete protein release.

Surface modification of PLGA microspheres [PDF]
AbstractMicrospheres made of poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) (PLGA) are biocompatible and biodegradable, rendering them a promising tool in the context of drug delivery. However, nonspecific adsorption of plasma proteins on PLGA micro‐ and nanospheres is a main limitation of drug targeting.

Porous polymer coatings on metal microneedles for enhanced drug delivery [PDF]
We present a simple method to coat microneedles (MNs) uniformly with a porous polymer (PLGA) that can deliver drugs at high rates. Stainless steel (SS) MNs of high mechanical strength were coated with a thin porous polymer layer to enhance their delivery

Sustained release of sodium deoxycholate from PLGA–PEG–PLGA thermosensitive polymer [PDF]
Delivery of the drugs to the target tissue and reducing their side effects on surrounding tissues is still a significant challenge for pharmaceutical scientists. The aim of this study was to investigate the suitability of PLGA–PEG–PLGA triblock copolymer as a matrix material for a sustained-release system of sodium deoxycholate (NaDC).

Formulation of stabilizer-free, nontoxic PLGA and elastin-PLGA nanoparticle delivery systems
Biocompatible nanoparticles composed of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) are used as drug and vaccine delivery systems because of their tunability in size and sustained release of cargo molecules. While the use of toxic stabilizers such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) limit the utility of PLGA, stabilizer-free PLGA nanoparticles are rarely used because ...
