Book Bioadhesives in Drug Delivery

Download or read book Bioadhesives in Drug Delivery written by K. L. Mittal and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important and unique book comprises 12 chapters divided into three parts examining the fundamental aspects, bioadhesive formulations, and drug delivery applications. Understanding the phenomenon of bioadhesion i.e. its theories or mechanism(s) are of critical importance in developing optimum bioadhesive polymers (used in bioadhesives). Such bioadhesive polymers are the key for exhibiting the process of bioadhesion, controlled/sustained release of drugs, and drug targeting. The use of bioadhesives restricts the delivery system to the site of interest and thus offers a useful and efficient technique for targeting a drug to the desired location for a prolonged duration. This book addresses the various relevant aspects of bioadhesives in drug delivery in an easily accessible and unified manner. The book containing 12 chapters written by eminent researchers from many parts of the globe is divided into three parts: Part 1: Fundamental Aspects; Part 2: Bioadhesive Formulations; Part 3: Drug Delivery Applications. The topics covered include: Theories and mechanisms of bioadhesion; bioadhesive polymers for drug delivery applications; methods for characterization of bioadhesiveness of drug delivery systems; bioadhesive films and drug delivery applications; bioadhesive nanoparticles; bioadhesive hydrogels and applications; ocular biodhesive drug delivery systems; buccal bioadhesive drug delivery systems; gastrointestinal bioadhesive drug delivery systems; nasal bioadhesive drug delivery systems; vaginal drug delivery systems; pulmonary bioadhesive drug delivery systems.

Book Mussel inspired Mucoadhesive Hydrogels for Drug Delivery

Download or read book Mussel inspired Mucoadhesive Hydrogels for Drug Delivery written by Jinke Xu and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A controlled drug delivery system can deliver a drug with the right dose, control its release rate and time, and target the site of action in the body. Chitosan (CS) and its derivatives have been extensively used in drug delivery. Additionally, CS is mildly mucoadhesive, i.e. it can stick to mucus. Many drug delivery routes such as oral, buccal, and rectal delivery exploit the presence of a mucosa to deliver the drug. Drug delivery systems made from mucoadhesive materials can stick to the mucosa, thus prolonging the retention of drugs on site and allowing a sustained release of the loaded drugs. CS-based mucoadhesive drug delivery systems have shown improved therapeutic effects in many applications.Recently, the strong adhesion of marine mussels under the sea inspired the development of several water-resistant adhesives. The catechol groups present in large amount in the mussel adhesive proteins contribute to the outstanding adhesion of mussels on many different surfaces. Catechols also interact with biological surfaces, including mucus. These findings inspired us to use catechol-CS mucoadhesive systems to facilitate drug delivery. This was the first time that catechol groups were used to improve the mucoadhesion and thus the efficacy of a drug delivery system.In this work, we developed three types of catechol-containing CS hydrogels as mucoadhesive drug delivery systems for oral, buccal and rectal drug delivery. We introduced catechols into CS hydrogels by simple physical mixing or covalent conjugation. We assessed the efficacy of catechol-containing hydrogels as drug delivery systems and their mucoadhesion both in vitro and in vivo.Our first study showed that simple physical mixing of hydrocaffeic acid in CS-based hydrogels enhanced the mucoadhesion of the gels. The electrostatic interaction between hydrocaffeic acid and CS caused a slow release of this molecule from the CS hydrogel, and enhanced the adhesion of CS on mucus. The mucoadhesion of this hydrogel can be further increased in the presence of oxidizing agents during the contact with mucin. However, if the gel is oxidized before contacting mucin, there is no mucoadhesion enhancement. In our second study we developed a chemically conjugated catechol-CS (Cat-CS) hydrogel crosslinked by genipin. In this case, the immobilized catechols were not released from the gel. This system showed good mechanical properties and great mucoadhesion both in vitro and in vivo. Using this mucoadhesive hydrogel, we succeeded in delivering lidocaine to rabbits through the buccal mucosa. Differently from gels made with unmodified CS, this system established an intimate contact with the rabbit buccal mucosa, achieved a sustained release of the drug, and maintained the drug concentration in the blood at a relatively high level during the 2 h experiment.In our third study we developed an injectable sulfasalazine (SSZ) loaded Cat-CS hydrogel formulation for rectal treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). In UC mice, rectal SSZ/Cat-CS formulation showed better therapeutic effects with only 50% of the normal oral dose. Most importantly, this formulation reduced the plasma levels of the SSZ metabolite sulfapyridine, which is associated with many side effects of SSZ and toxicity. Thus, these results proved the great potential of mucoadhesive SSZ/Cat-CS rectal formulation in UC treatment. Overall, we developed mussel-inspired catechol-containing CS hydrogels that improved the mucoadhesion and thus the drug efficacy and therapeutic effects in drug delivery." --

Book Mucoadhesive Drug Delivery Systems Using Optimized Polymer Blends

Download or read book Mucoadhesive Drug Delivery Systems Using Optimized Polymer Blends written by Bhupinder Singh and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-09 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work embodies development and systematic optimization of oral controlled release (CR) mucoadhesive hydrophilic matrices of atenolol using "Design of Experiments". A central composite design was used to optimize drug release profile and bioadhesive strength. Two polymers, namely, Carbopol 934P and sodium CMC, were taken as synergistic factors. The 3-D response surfaces and 2-D contour plots indicated significant effect of both the polymers on ex vivo bioadhesive strength of tablet against porcine gastric mucosa, diffusional release exponent and drug release extension. The optimized drug delivery formulation was selected by feasibility and grid searches based on maximization of the response variables. Validation of drug delivery optimization study using experimental runs indicated high prognostic ability of the chosen experimental design. Besides unraveling the effect of the two factors on various response variables, the study helped in finding the "optimized" formulation with excellent bioadhesive strength and extended release for 24 h, holding immense promise for once-a-day gastroretentive CR formulation and minimizing fluctuations in plasma drug levels.

Book excerpt: Current pharmaceutical and clinical approaches to the treatment of disease suffer from the inherent limitations in the specialization of drugs introduced to physiological systems. The interface of clinical and material sciences has allowed for a broad spectrum of creative approaches with the potential to alleviate these shortcomings. However, the synergy of these disciplines also presents problems in which nascent technology lacks the necessary evaluation within its intended clinical environment. Given the growing potential for materials science to address a number of unanswered therapeutic needs, it remains even more pressing to validate emerging drug delivery technologies in actual clinical environments. Drug Delivery: Materials Design and Clinical Perspective addresses the core fundamentals of drug delivery using material science and engineering principles, and then applies this knowledge using prominent examples from both the scientific literature and clinical practice. Each chapter focuses on a specific drug delivery technology, such as controlled-release materials, thin-film materials, or smart materials. Within each chapter, an initial section on “Engineering Concepts” reviews the relevant fundamental principles that guide rational design. The following section on “Materials Design” discusses how the design process applies engineering concepts for use in physiological systems.
