Abstract
Transdermal administration techniques have gained popularity due to their advantages over oral and parenteral methods. Noninvasive, self-administered delivery devices improve patient compliance and control drug release. Transdermal delivery devices struggle with the skin's barrier function. Molecules over 500 Dalton (Da) and ionized compounds don't permeate through the skin. Drug encapsulation in phospholipid-based vesicular systems is the most effective skin delivery technique. Vesicular carriers include bi-layered liposomes, ultra-deformable liposomes, ethanolic liposomes, transethosomes, and invasomes. These technologies enhance skin drug permeation by increasing formula solubilization, partitioning into the skin, and fluidizing the lipid barrier. Phospholipid-based delivery systems are safe and efficient, making them a promising pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical drug delivery technique. Still, making delivery systems requires knowledge about the physicochemical properties of the drug and carrier, manufacturing and process variables, skin delivery mechanisms, technological advances, constraints, and regulatory requirements. Consequently, this review covers recent research achievements addressing the mentioned concerns.

Comparison of chemical-induced temporomandibular osteoarthritis rat models (monosodium iodoacetate versus collagenase type II) for the study of prolonged drug delivery systems. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0281135. [PMID: 36719872 PMCID: PMC9888674 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0281135] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare two agents that can induce a rat model of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) by chemical induction: monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) and collagenase type 2 (Col-2). We wished to ascertain the best agent for assessing drug-delivery systems (DDSs). METHOD Male Wistar rats underwent intra-articular injection with MIA or Col-2. They were manipulated for 30 days. The head withdrawal threshold (HWT), immunohistological assessment, and positron emission tomography (PET) were used to evaluate the relevance of our models. RESULTS For both the MIA and Col-2 groups, pain persisted for 30 days after injection. Change in the HWT showed that Col-2 elicited a strong action initially that decreased progressively. MIA had a constant action upon pain behavior. Histology of TMJ tissue from both groups showed progressive degradation of TMJ components. CONCLUSIONS MIA and Col-2 induced orofacial pain by their local chemical action on TMJs. However, based on a prolonged and greater sustained effect on the pain threshold, persistent histological changes, and imaging results, MIA appeared to be more suitable for creation of a rat model of TMJOA for the study of DDSs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A newly available gel containing hyaluronic acid (HA) and polyvinylpyrrolidone was tested for efficacy on traumatic oral ulcers (TOU) caused by fixed orthodontic appliances. METHODS A double-blind RCT was conducted to test the new gel versus a placebo. According to the sample size calculation, a total of 60 patients were considered sufficient and randomly allocated to one of the two groups out of a pool of 100 total patients who initially agreed to participate in the study. A VAS scale test and lesion measurements at T0, T1, and T2 were performed on the patients. RESULTS A total of 70 patients developed TOU, with 8 drop-outs; the intergroup comparison showed a statistically significant greater dimension of the lesion in the control group at T2 when compared to the test group. The pain experienced by the patients belonging to the test group was significantly lower than the pain in the patients in the control group Conclusions: Under the limitations of the study, the new formula might provide faster healing with less pain experienced by the patient when compared to a placebo.

Abstract
The number of people suffering from temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) has been increasing. TMJOA cause joint noise, pain on TMJ and/or masticatory muscles, and restricted mandibular movement, which disturb eating, laughing and conversation, and impose serious lifestyle impediments. Chondrocyte apoptosis, extracellular matrix degradation, synovitis, and subchondral bone remodeling are the main pathological features of TMJOA. Various drug delivery systems are developed to controlled release at specific activation sites with high bioactivity and inhibit rapid dilution to enable long-term therapeutic response, which present great potential for the treatment of TMJOA. This review focuses on recently developed drug delivery systems by different administration in the TMJOA treatment, and summarizes their effects, duration, safety, and limitations, which would pave the way for development of TMJOA therapy.

Systematic review of studies on drug-delivery systems for management of temporomandibular-joint osteoarthritis. JOURNAL OF STOMATOLOGY, ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGERY 2021; 123:e336-e341. [PMID: 34400376 DOI: 10.1016/j.jormas.2021.08.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2021] [Revised: 08/01/2021] [Accepted: 08/11/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Temporomandibular-joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) management is a major challenge. Minimally invasive therapies (based mainly on injections) have been developed to increase local efficacy and limit adverse systemic effects. However, the requirement for repeat injections due to a short duration of action and expensive healthcare costs have pushed researchers to develop, via tissue engineering, drug-delivery systems (DDSs). In this literature systematic review, we aim to provide an overview of studies that tested DDSs on a TMJOA model. MATERIAL AND METHODS We searched on PubMed for articles published from November 1965 to March 2021 on DDSs using a TMJOA model. We highlighted the different DDSs and the active molecule employed. Route of drug administration, model type, test duration, and efficacy duration were assessed. To evaluate the quality of each study, a protocol bias was tested using QUADAS-2™. RESULTS Of the 10 studies that were full text-screened, four used a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)-based delivery system. The other DDSs employed chitosan-based hydrogels, microneedles patches, nanostructured lipid carriers, or poloxamer micelles. Hyaluronic acid, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and analgesics were used as active molecules in five studies. The main way to administer DDSs was intra-articular injection and the most used model was the rat. DISCUSSION Various DDSs and active molecules have been studied on a TMJOA model that could aid TMJOA management. Further works using longer test durations are necessary to validate these advances.

Abstract
Objective(s) It is well appreciated that traditional analgesic delivery routes used to treat pain associated with temporomandibular disorder (TMD) often have harmful unintended side effects as a consequence of systemic distribution. Further, localized delivery of analgesic medication via intra‐articular injections involves a different set of issues limiting their clinical viability. As an option, transdermal analgesic delivery provides for prolonged pain relief and flexibility in dose administration, while limiting systemic exposure and minimizing adverse events. Incorporation of a novel electroporation technique may further increase transdermal drug penetration into synovial tissue/fluid and enhance pain reduction. The present feasibility study compares the effectiveness of an electroporation‐enhanced transdermal application of diclofenac sodium to a conventional intra‐articular injection of triamcinolone acetonide suspension (corticosteroids) to treat patients with TMD associated pain. Methods Pre‐ and post‐treatment maximal incisal mouth opening (MIO), pain visual analog scale (VAS) and surface electromyography (EMG) of 22 patients treated with electroporation‐enhanced diclofenac and 37 patients treated with corticosteroids injections were collected and analyzed. Results In general, patients treated with electroporation exhibited better results in terms of pain improvement (corrected p‐value = .01) compared to the standard treatment, but both methods were similarly effective for improvement of MIO (corrected p‐value = .71) and improvement of all EMG indices (corrected p‐values ≥ .05). Conclusion The enhancing effect of electroporation in transdermal delivery of diclofenac sodium was demonstrated by decreased pain, increase MIO and EMG improvement to normal values. Its analgesic and inflammatory results are comparable with standard treatment offered by corticosteroids.
