Abstract
In transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) patches, achieving prolonged adhesion, high drug loading, and rapid drug release simultaneously presented a significant challenge. In this study, a PHT-SP-Cu2+ adhesive was synthesized using polyethylene glycol (PEG), hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), trimethylolpropane (TMP), and silk protein (SP) as functional monomers which were combined with Cu2+ to improve the adhesion, drug loading, and drug release of the patch. The structure of the adhesion chains and the formation of Cu2+-p-π conjugated network in PHT-SP-Cu2+ were characterized and elucidated using different characterization methods including FT-IR, 13C NMR, XPS, SEM imaging and thermodynamic evaluation. The formulation of pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) was optimized through comprehensive research on adhesion, mechanics, rheology, and surface energy. The formulation of 3 wt.% SP and 3 wt.% Cu2+ provided superior adhesion properties compared to commercial standards. Subsequently, the peel strength of PHT-SP-Cu2+ was 7.6 times higher than that of the commercially available adhesive DURO-TAK® 87-4098 in the porcine skin peel test. The adhesion test on human skin confirmed that PHT-SP-Cu2+ could adhere to the human body for more than six days. Moreover, the drug loading, in vitro release test and skin permeation test were investigated using ketoprofen as a model drug, and the results showed that PHT-SP-Cu2+ had the efficacy of improving drug compatibility, promoting drug release and enhancing skin permeation as a TDDS. Among them, the drug loading of PHT-SP-Cu2+ was increased by 6.25-fold compared with PHT, and in the in vivo pharmacokinetic analysis, the AUC was similarly increased by 19.22-fold. The mechanism of α-helix facilitated drug release was demonstrated by Flori-Hawkins interaction parameters, molecular dynamics simulations and FT-IR. Biosafety evaluations highlighted the superior skin cytocompatibility and safety of PHT-SP-Cu2+ for transdermal applications. These results would contribute to the development of TDDS patch adhesives with outstanding adhesion, drug loading and release efficiency. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A new adhesive, PHT-SP-Cu2+, was created for transdermal drug delivery patches. Polyethylene glycol, hexamethylene diisocyanate, trimethylolpropane, silk protein, and Cu2+ were used in synthesis. Characterization techniques confirmed the structure and Cu2+-p-π conjugated networks. Optimal formulation included 3 wt.% SP and 3 wt.% Cu2+, exhibiting superior adhesion. PHT-SP-Cu2+ showed 7.6 times higher peel strength than DURO-TAK® 87-4098 on porcine skin and adhered to human skin for over six days. It demonstrated a 6.25-fold increase in drug loading compared to PHT, with 19.22-fold higher AUC in vivo studies. α-helix facilitated drug release, proven by various analyses. PHT-SP-Cu2+ showed excellent cytocompatibility and safety for transdermal applications. This study contributes to developing efficient TDDS patches.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), particularly dementia, provide significant problems to worldwide healthcare systems. The development of therapeutic materials for various diseases has a severe challenge in the form of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Transdermal treatment has recently garnered widespread favor as an alternative method of delivering active chemicals to the brain. This approach has several advantages, including low invasiveness, self-administration, avoidance of first-pass metabolism, preservation of steady plasma concentrations, regulated release, safety, efficacy, and better patient compliance. Topics include the transdermal method for therapeutic NDs, their classification, and the mechanisms that allow the medicine to enter the bloodstream through the skin. The paper also discusses the obstacles and potential outcomes of transdermal therapy, emphasizing the benefits and drawbacks of different approaches.

Abstract
In this study, polyethylene glycol was grafted onto pullulan polysaccharides, resulting in the development of a novel adhesive termed PLUPE, offering superior drug loading capacity and rapid release efficiency. The efficacy of PLUPE was rigorously evaluated through various tests, including the tack test, shear strength test, 180° peel strength test, and human skin adhesion test. The results demonstrated that PLUPE exhibited a static shear strength that was 4.6 to 9.3 times higher than conventional PSAs, ensuring secure adhesion for over 3 days on human skin. A comprehensive analysis, encompassing electrical potential evaluation, calculation of interaction parameters, and FT-IR spectra, elucidated why improved the miscibility between the drug and PSAs, that the significant enhancement of intermolecular hydrogen bonding in the PLUPE structure. ATR-FTIR, rheological, and thermodynamic analyses further revealed that the hydrogen bonding network in PLUPE primarily interacted with polar groups in the skin. This interaction augmented the fluidity and free volume of PSA molecules, thereby promoting efficient drug release. The results confirmed the safety profile of PLUPE through skin irritation tests and MTT assays, bolstering its viability for application in TDDS patches. In conclusion, PLUPE represented a groundbreaking adhesive solution for TDDS patches, successfully overcoming longstanding challenges associated with PSAs.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to design a tulobuterol (TUL) patch with good penetration behavior and mechanical properties. Particular attention was paid to the effect of transdermal permeation enhancers on the release process of metal ligand-based acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive (AA-NAT/Fe3+). The type and dosage of the enhancers were screened by in vitro transdermal penetration in rat skin. The optimized formulation was evaluated in a pharmacokinetic study in rats. Furthermore, the molecular mechanism by which Azone (AZ) improves the release rate of TUL from AA-NAT/Fe3+ was investigated by FT-IR, shear strength test, rheological study, and molecular simulation. As a result, the optimized formula using AA-NAT/Fe3+ showed better mechanical properties compared to commercial products. Meanwhile, the AUC0-t and Cmax of the optimized patch were 1045 ± 89 ng/mL·h and 106.8 ± 28.5 ng/mL, respectively, which were not significantly different from those of the commercial product. In addition, AZ increased the mobility of the pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) rather than decreasing the drug-PSA interaction, which was the main factor in enhancing TUL release from the patch. In conclusion, a TUL transdermal drug delivery patch was successfully developed using metal-coordinated PSA, and a reference was provided for the design of metal-coordinated acrylic PSA for transdermal patch delivery applications.

Abstract
Transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS) demand both high drug loading capacity and efficient delivery. In order to improve both simultaneously, this study aims to develop a novel rhamnose-induced pressure-sensitive adhesive (HPR) by dispersing the drug in the supramolecular helical structure. Ten model drugs, categorized as acidic and basic compounds, were chosen to understand the characteristics of the HPR and its inner mechanism. Notably, it enhanced drug loading by 1.41 to 5 times over commercially available pressure-sensitive adhesives Duro-Tak@ 87-4098 and Duro-Tak@ 87-2287, in addition to increasing drug release efficiency by a factor of about 5. Pharmacokinetic evaluation demonstrated that the HPR group had >4-fold (Tulobuterol TUL) and 3-fold (Diclofenac DIC) more area under the blood drug concentration curve (AUC) than the commercial TUL and DIC patches in the absence of added excipients and a significantly prolonged mean residence time (MRT) of >4-fold (TUL) and 3-fold (DIC), demonstrating the potential for highly efficacious and prolonged dosing. Furthermore, its safety and mechanical properties meet the requisite standards. Mechanistic inquiries unveiled that both acidic and basic drugs establish hydrogen bonds with HPR and become encapsulated within supramolecular helical structures. The supramolecular helical structures, significantly elevated both the enthalpy of the drug-HPR and entropy of the drugs release, thereby substantially enhancing drug delivery efficiency. In summary, HPR enabled a significant simultaneous enhancement of drug loading and drug delivery, which, together with its unique spatial structure, would contribute to the development of TDDS. In addition, the establishment of rhamnose-induced supramolecular helical structures would provide innovative pathways for different drug delivery systems.

Abstract
This study introduces a dendronized pressure-sensitive adhesive, TMPE@Rha, addressing Food and Drug Administration (FDA) concerns about traditional pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) in transdermal drug delivery systems. The unique formulation, composed of rhamnose, trihydroxypropane, and poly(ethylene glycol), significantly enhances cohesion and tissue adhesion. Leveraging rhamnose improves intermolecular interactions and surface chain mobility, boosting tissue adhesion. Compared to acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive 87-DT-4098, TMPE@Rha shows substantial advantages, with up to 5 to 6 times higher peel strength on porcine and wood substrates. Importantly, it maintains strong human skin adhesion beyond 7 days without the typical "dark ring" phenomenon. When loaded with diclofenac, the adhesive exhibits 3.12 times greater peeling strength than commercial alternatives, sustaining human adhesion for up to 6 days. Rigorous analyses confirm rhamnose's role in increasing interaction strength. In vitro studies and microscopy demonstrate the polymer's ability to enhance drug loading and distribution on the skin, improving permeability. Biocompatibility tests affirm TMPE@Rha as nonirritating. In summary, TMPE@Rha establishes a new standard for PSAs in transdermal drug delivery systems, offering exceptional adhesion, robustness, and biocompatibility. This pioneering work provides a blueprint for next-generation, highly adhesive, drug-loaded PSAs that meet and exceed FDA criteria.

Abstract
Pressure-sensitive adhesives are critical to the product's safety, efficacy, and quality in transdermal drug delivery systems. However, many defects of transdermal patches (e.g., insufficient adhesion, patch displacement, and "dark ring" phenomenon) remain. Herein, the N-[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl]acrylamide (NAT)-modified acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive coordinated with Fe(III) (AA-NAT/Fe3+) was creatively proposed. Results demonstrated that the adhesiveness and cohesiveness of the optimized AA-NAT/Fe3+ were higher by 1.8- and 9.7-fold, respectively, than those of commercially available DURO-TAK® 87-4098 due to the hydrogen bonding interaction of NAT-skin interface and coordination of NAT-Fe3+. Moreover, compared with that of DURO-TAK® 87-4098, the adhesion time of AA-NAT/Fe3+ on the human forearm was remarkably prolonged, and no "dark ring" phenomenon was observed for AA-NAT/Fe3+ after removal. After clonidine (CLO) was loaded into AA-NAT/Fe3+, controlled drug release and a drug transdermal behavior were endowed for CLO@AA-NAT/Fe3+in vitro and in vivo. AA-NAT/Fe3+ still maintained superiority in adhesion and cohesion properties after CLO loading. These observations would contribute to the development of pressure-sensitive adhesives with outstanding adhesion and cohesion for transdermal patches. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This N-[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl]acrylamide-modified acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive coordinated with Fe(III) has enhanced adhesion and cohesion properties, which provide a simple but effective strategy to solve the problems (e.g., insufficient adhesion, patch displacement, and "dark ring" phenomenon) in existing transdermal patches.

Abstract
In order to rapidly and precisely identify the volatile compounds in Chinese chive (Allium tuberosum Rottler), seven key parameters of headspace solid-phase micro-extraction conditions (HS-SPME) from Chinese chive were optimized. A total of 59 volatile compounds were identified by using the optimized method, including 28 ethers, 15 aldehydes, 6 alcohols, 5 ketones, 2 hydrocarbons, 1 ester, and 2 phenols. Ethers are the most abundant, especially dimethyl trisulfide (10,623.30 μg/kg). By calculating the odor activity values (OAVs), 11 volatile compounds were identified as the major aroma-active compounds of Chinese chive. From the analysis of the composition of Chinese chive aroma, the “garlic and onion” odor (OAV = 2361.09) showed an absolute predominance over the other 5 categories of aroma. The results of this study elucidated the main sources of Chinese chive aroma from a chemical point of view and provided the theoretical basis for improving the flavor quality of Chinese chive.

[PMID: 35213995 PMCID: PMC8878673 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14020262] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Revised: 01/15/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to systematically compare licochalcone A (LicA) and glabridin (Gla) (whitening agents) release and permeation from Carbomer 940 (CP) hydrogels with different enhancers, and evaluate the relationship between the quantitative enhancement efficacy and structures of the enhancers. An in vitro release study and an in vitro permeation experiment in solution and hydrogels using porcine skin were performed. We found that the Gla–CP hydrogel showed a higher drug release and skin retention amount than LicA–CP due to the higher solubility in medium and better miscibility with the skin of Gla than that of LicA. Enhancers with a higher molecular weight (MW) and lower polarizability showed a higher release enhancement effect (ERrelease) for both LicA and Gla. The Van der Waals forces in the drug–enhancers–CP system were negatively correlated with the drug release percent. Moreover, enhancers with a higher log P and polarizability displayed a higher retention enhancement effect in solution (ERsolution retention) for LicA and Gla. Enhancers decreased the whole intermolecular forces indrug–enhancers-skin system, which had a linear inhibitory effect on the drug retention. Moreover, C=O of ceramide acted asthe enhancement site for drug permeation. Consequently, Transcutol® P (TP) and propylene glycol (PG), seven enhancers showed a higher retention enhancement effect in hydrogel (ERhydrogel retention) for LicA and Gla. Taken together, the conclusions provide a strategy for reasonable utilization of enhancers and formulation optimization in topical hydrogel whitening.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A double-layer transdermal drug-in-adhesive patch of carvedilol was developed using functional and nonfunctional grades of acrylic adhesives, DURO-TAK® 387-2051, DURO-TAK® 387-2510, and DURO-TAK® 87-4098. The patch was designed to provide adequate permeation of the drug up to 2 days, with effective adhesion attributes. An optimized formulation was selected, the effect of the combination was studied and a 180° peel strength test was performed to evaluate adhesive properties. Further, the patch was assessed for in vivo studies on basis of biochemical parameters, skin irritation, and stability studies. The stability study was carried out on optimized fresh (S1) and 6 months old patches stored at room, and accelerated condition (40 ± 2 °C/75 ± 5% RH) using FTIR, DSC, and SEM techniques.
Result
It was studied that the steady-state flux (Jss) or permeation rate of the drug through excised rat skin has relied on the nature of acrylic and the combination of acrylic polymers. The TDDS containing –OH functional group DT 387-2510 with nonfunctional pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) DT 87-4098, with Span 80 as penetration enhancer exhibited maximum flux (19.12 ± 0.64 μg/cm2/h) and form homogeneous and stable blends, controlling permeation of drug at a desired steady rate for 48 h. The data obtained from in vivo studies using biochemical parameters suggested that there were no statistical differences observed in results for the control and treated group while analyzing observations for serum creatinine, glucose test, sodium test, albumin, and potassium (p > 0.05). Also, the optimized formulation showed no sign of localized reactions and was confirmed by a skin histological study indicating the formulation was safe and compatible with the skin. A significant shift of peaks was not observed in FTIR spectra and DSC thermograms of the patches after the stability period.
Conclusion
The investigation reveals that the drug-in-adhesive patch of carvedilol, by a combination of functional and nonfunctional PSAs, provides a good and effective option for controlled delivery of carvedilol. From our findings, it has been concluded that drug in the adhesive patch has been able to provide satisfactory adhesion, drug uniformity, drug permeation, marked positive biochemical results, and good stability.

Abstract
Background:
Schizophrenia belongs to mental illnesses affecting 1% of the worldwide population. Its
therapy is still unmet; thus, researchers aimed to develop new pharmacological molecules which can improve its
management.
Methods:
Moreover, the current typical and atypical antipsychotics should be formulated in more efficacious
systems that can deliver the drug in the brain with as few side effects as possible. Further, the development of
long-acting efficient drug delivery systems could be significant in minimizing frequent dosing which is nonpreferred
to schizophrenics.
Results:
Herein, authors focused on current developments of antipsychotic medications used in schizophrenia
management. Various studies, which include the use of first and second-generation antipsychotics, were analyzed
according to their efficacy. In fact, in this review, oral, injectable, transdermal and intranasal formulations entrapped
antipsychotics are presented to be valuable guidance for scientists to formulate more effective drug delivery
systems for schizophrenic patients.
Conclusions:
This review aimed to assist researchers working on schizophrenia management by summarizing
current medications and newly synthesized drug delivery systems recently found in the literature.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the present research was to study the effect and optimization of sodium alginate l-cysteine conjugate and permeation enhancer on permeation of high soluble low permeable ropinirole hydrochloride from the transdermal formulation. METHODS Sodium alginate l-cysteine conjugate was prepared and characterized and the same was added into a transdermal formulation along with IPM as a permeation enhancer. Twelve primary formulations were prepared by solvent casting method and evaluated. The results were fed into Design Expert® Software to obtain optimized formulation. The optimized formulation was evaluated for physicochemical, ex vivo permeation, stability, skin irritation, and pharmacokinetic studies. RESULTS The results of the characterization of prepared sodium alginate l-cysteine conjugate confirmed the thiolation process. Stability studies suggested that the drug was compatible with all the excipients. SEM images of the transdermal patch revealed that the amorphous drug was uniformly distributed. From the design space, the optimized formulation from the polymer's ratio (SA: SACC; 4:6) and IPM 9.5%w/w of polymers weight showed target steady state flux 9.004 µg/cm2/h with maximum drug permeation. The increased target flux and maximum drug permeation from an optimized patch suggested that there was an effect of SACC on ropinirole hydrochloride permeation in the presence of IPM as a permeation enhancer. Pharmacokinetic studies in rabbits showed that the optimized patch improved bioavailability as compared to marketed oral tablets. CONCLUSIONS The study was concluded that there was a positive effect of sodium alginate l-cysteine conjugate and IPM on ropinirole hydrochloride permeation from the transdermal formulation.

Mechanistic insights of the controlled release capacity of polar functional group in transdermal drug delivery system: the relationship of hydrogen bonding strength and controlled release capacity. Acta Pharm Sin B 2020; 10:928-945. [PMID: 32528838 PMCID: PMC7280149 DOI: 10.1016/j.apsb.2019.11.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2019] [Revised: 09/27/2019] [Accepted: 10/31/2019] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Hydrogen bonding interaction was considered to play a critical role in controlling drug release from transdermal patch. However, the quantitative evaluation of hydrogen bonding strength between drug and polar functional group was rarely reported, and the relationship between hydrogen bonding strength and controlled release capacity of pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) was not well understood. The present study shed light on this relationship. Methods Acrylate PSAs with amide group were synthesized by a free radical-initiated solution polymerization. Six drugs, i.e., etodolac, ketoprofen, gemfibrozil, zolmitriptan, propranolol and lidocaine, were selected as model drugs. In vitro drug release and skin permeation experiments and in vivo pharmacokinetic experiment were performed. Partial correlation analysis, fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and molecular simulation were conducted to provide molecular details of drug-PSA interactions. Mechanical test, rheology study, and modulated differential scanning calorimetry study were performed to scrutinize the free volume and molecular mobility of PSAs. Results Release rate of all six drugs from amide PSAs decreased with the increase of amide group concentrations; however, only zolmitriptan and propranolol showed decreased skin permeation rate. It was found that drug release was controlled by amide group through hydrogen bonding, and controlled release extent was positively correlated with hydrogen bonding strength. Conclusion From these results, we concluded that drugs with strong hydrogen bond forming ability and high skin permeation were suitable to use amide PSAs to regulate their release rate from patch.

Abstract
The aim of this article is to provide the rationale for the development of transdermal formulations of antipsychotics by highlighting their main advantages, starting with an overview of the antipsychotic formulations that are currently available on the market. Progress regarding transdermal antipsychotic formulations was investigated by performing a search of papers, patents and clinical trials published in the last 10 years. Available data on antipsychotic transdermal formulations are reported and discussed, focusing on the characteristics of the dosage forms and their ability to promote drug absorption. Despite the current availability of a large number of antipsychotics, only a few of these drugs (e.g. aripiprazole, asenapine, blonanserin, chlorpromazine, haloperidol, olanzapine, prochlorperazine, quetiapine, and risperidone) have been developed as transdermal delivery systems. Several papers and patents show that transdermal formulations, such as creams, films, gels, nanosystems, patches, solutions, and sprays, have been evaluated with the aim of expanding the clinical utility of antipsychotic drugs. In particular, the employment of different strategies, such as the use of nanoparticles/vesicles, or permeation enhancers as well as microneedles with iontophoresis, may improve the absorption of antipsychotic drugs through the skin. However, few clinical trials on transdermal delivery of antipsychotic drugs are available and only delivery systems containing asenapine and blonanserin have shown interesting clinical results in terms of pharmacokinetic data, efficacy, and tolerability. Recently, the transdermal patch formulation of blonanserin was approved in Japan for the treatment of schizophrenia.

Abstract
Various generic transdermal formulations of tulobuterol containing rubber and acrylate base polymers are commercially available in Japan. However, none of the formulations have been compared directly with respect to the skin permeability of tulobuterol and to their follow ability. Tulobuterol Tape Sawai of rubber base and Tulobuterol Tape NP of acrylate base were used to conduct the in vitro 24-hour skin permeability test of tulobuterol at receiver solution temperatures of 32°C, 37°C, and 40°C. Furthermore, the followability of these tapes were examined by measuring the depth of the pores that were formed in their adhesive layer. Consequently, the maximum flux of tulobuterol was greater for Tulobuterol Tape NP. Arrhenius plot analysis revealed that Tulobuterol Tape Sawai was more sensitive to skin surface temperature compared with Tulobuterol Tape NP. Skin abrasion had a greater effect on the skin permeability of tulobuterol in Tulobuterol Tape Sawai than in Tulobuterol Tape NP. Followability was greater for Tulobuterol Tape NP than for Tulobuterol Tape Sawai. These results suggest that a transdermal formulation of acrylate base is preferable to that with a rubber base when skin surface temperature varies or when the skin is abraded. In clinical settings, therefore, a formulation of acrylate base is preferable to a formulation of rubber base when skin surface temperature varies or when the skin is abraded. The formulation needs to be applied to the skin of less asperity for the achievement of better transdermal absorption of tulobuterol.
