RESUMO

PURPOSE: Traditional eye drops exhibit a modest bioavailability ranging from 1 to 5%, necessitating recurrent application. Thus, a contact lens-based drug delivery system presents substantial benefits. Nonetheless, pharmaceutical agents exhibiting poor solubility may compromise the quintessential characteristics of contact lenses and are, consequently, deemed unsuitable for incorporation. To address this issue, the present study has engineered a novel composite drug delivery system that amalgamates micellar technology with contact lenses, designed specifically for the efficacious conveyance of timolol and brinzolamide. METHODS: Utilizing mPEG-PCL as the micellar material, this study crafted mPEG-PCL micelles loaded with brinzolamide and timolol through the film hydration technique. The micelle-loaded contact lens was fabricated employing the casting method; a uniform mixture of HEMA and EGDMA with the mPEG-PCL micelles enshrouding brinzolamide and timolol was synthesized. Following the addition of a photoinitiator, 50 µL of the concoction was deposited into a contact lens mold. Subsequently, the assembly was subjected to polymerization under 365 nm ultraviolet light for 35 min, resulting in the formation of the micelle-loaded contact lenses. RESULTS: In the present article, we delineate the construction of a micelle-loaded contact lens designed for the administration of brinzolamide and timolol in the treatment of glaucoma. The study characterizes crucial properties of the micelle-loaded contact lenses, such as transmittance and ionic permeability. It was observed that these vital attributes meet the standard requirements for contact lenses. In vitro release studies revealed that timolol and brinzolamide could be gradually liberated over periods of up to 72 and 84 h, respectively. In vivo pharmacodynamic evaluation showed a significant reduction in intraocular pressure and a relative bioavailability of 10.84 times that of commercially available eye drops. In vivo pharmacokinetic evaluation, MRT was significantly increased, and the bioavailability of timolol and brinzolamide was 2.71 and 1.41 times that of eye drops, respectively. Safety assessments, including in vivo irritation, histopathological sections, and protein adsorption studies, were conducted as per established protocols, confirming that the experiments were in compliance with safety standards. IN CONCLUSION: The manuscript delineates the development of a safe and efficacious micelle-loaded contact lens drug delivery system, which presents a novel therapeutic alternative for the management of glaucoma.

RESUMO

Ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38) is a camptothecin derivative with significant anti-tumour therapeutic potential, while the clinical application of SN38 was limited by its poor water solubility and low stability. Herein, a core-shell polymer prodrug hyaluronic acid @chitosan-S-SN38 (HA@CS-S-SN38) was designed by CS-S-SN38 as the core and the HA as the shell, which aims to overcome the limitations of the clinical application of SN38, while realising the high tumour targeting of polymer prodrug and the controllable release of drug in tumour cells. HA@CS-S-SN38 showed the high responsiveness of the tumour microenvironment and the safe stability of blood circulation. Furthermore, HA@CS-S-SN38 exhibited the begin uptake efficiency and favourable apoptosis in the 4T1 cells. More importantly, compared with irinotecan hydrochloride trihydrate (CPT-11), HA@CS-S-SN38 significantly improved the conversion efficiency of the prodrug to SN38, and showed excellent tumour targeting and retention in vivo by combining passive and active targeting strategies. In tumour-bearing mice treatment, HA@CS-S-SN38 showed the perfect anti-tumour effect and therapeutic safety. These results indicated that the polymer prodrug designed by ROS-response/HA-modification strategy is a safe and efficient drug delivery system, which provides a new idea for clinical utilisation of SN38 and warrants further evaluation.

RESUMO

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic, systemic autoimmune disease predominantly based on joint lesions with an extremely high disability and deformity rate. Several drugs have been used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, but their use is limited by suboptimal bioavailability, serious adverse effects, and nonnegligible first-pass effects. In contrast, transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDSs) can avoid these drawbacks and improve patient compliance, making them a promising option for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Of course, TDDSs also face unique challenges, as the physiological barrier of the skin makes drug delivery somewhat limited. To overcome this barrier and maximize drug delivery efficiency, TDDSs have evolved in terms of the principle of transdermal facilitation and transdermal facilitation technology, and different generations of TDDSs have been derived, which have significantly improved transdermal efficiency and even achieved individualized controlled drug delivery. In this review, we summarize the different generations of transdermal drug delivery systems, the corresponding transdermal strategies, and their applications in the treatment of RA.
