Research progress of ophthalmic preparations of immunosuppressants
Immune ophthalmopathy is a collection of autoimmune eye diseases. Immunosuppressants are drugs that can inhibit the body’s immune response. Considering drug side effects such as hepatorenal toxicity and the unique structure of the eye, incorporating immunosuppressants into ophthalmic nanodrug…

Pharmaceutical polymers and P-glycoprotein: Current Trends and Possible Outcomes in Drug Delivery
Drug resistance is considered a key reason behind the failure of therapeutic medications for several chronic diseases, including hypertension, cancer therapeutics, and antimicrobial agents. Among the strategies used to overcome drug resistance are therapeutic targeting of other factors involved in…

Improving aqueous solubility of paclitaxel with polysarcosine-b-poly(γ-benzyl glutamate)…
New stealth amphiphilic copolymers based on polysarcosine (PSar) rather than poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) have gained more attention for their use as excipients in nanomedicine. In this study, several polysarcosine-b-poly(γ-benzyl glutamate) (PSar-b-PGluOBn) block copolymers were synthesized by ring…

Loading of alpha-tocopherol in a nonionic microemulsion: phase behaviour and structural…
In this research, we present a systematic analysis of events inside single phase region of a nonionic microemulsion (ME) during incorporation of water and α-tocopherol (AT, a hydrophobic payload). The formulation was developed using α-tocopherol polyethylene glycol succinate, ethanol and oleic acid,…

Inhaled dry powder cisplatin increases antitumour response to anti-PD1 in a murine lung cancer model
Despite advances in targeted therapies and immunotherapy in lung cancer, chemotherapy remains the backbone of treatment in most patients at different stages of the disease. Inhaled chemotherapy is a promising strategy to target lung tumours and to limit the induced severe systemic toxicities.…

Self-nano Emulsifying Formulations: An Encouraging Approach for Bioavailability Enhancement and…
Abstract
Currently lipid-based formulations are playing a vital and promising role in improving the oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs. Lipid based formulations mainly consist of a drug dissolved in lipids such as triglycerides, glycerides, oils and surface active agent.…

Biocompatible phospholipid-based mixed micelles for posaconazole ocular delivery: Development,…
Current study intended to prepare and evaluate phospholipid-based, mixed micelles (MMs) to improve the ocular delivery of posaconazole (POS), a broad-spectrum antifungal drug. For this, MMs based on egg phosphatidylcholine (EPC), as the main component, in combination with various bile salts (sodium…
