In-vitro Release Evaluation of Growth Hormone from an Injectable In-Situ Forming Gel Using PCL-PEG-PCL Thermosensitive Triblock. Curr Drug Deliv 2020; 17:174-183. [PMID: 31987020 DOI: 10.2174/1567201817666200120120105] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2019] [Revised: 10/02/2019] [Accepted: 12/31/2019] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE An injectable long acting In-Situ Forming Gel (ISFG) of human Growth Hormone (hGH) was prepared by using triblock PCL-PEG-PCL (Mw 1500-1500-1500). Ring-Opening Polymerization (ROP) of triblock using microwave was applied. METHODS The BCA protein assay Kit was used to determine the concentration of hGH in the in-vitro release medium. Finally, Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) tests and Circular Dichroism (CD) spectrum were done to approve the stability of released hGH. The result of ROP demonstrated that the proportion of PCL to PEG accorded with the initial molar ratio of the monomers. The cross-section of the Surface Electron Microscopy (SEM) indicated the porous framework of the hydrogel could load the drug into its tridimensional matrixes structure. There is the low initial burst release of hGH from the supramolecular hydrogel. RESULTS The maximum in-vitro release of hGH was 71.2 % ± 1.5 that were due to hGH degrading after this time (21 days). The CD spectrum and SDS-PAGE results confirmed the stability of hGH during invitro release evaluation. CONCLUSION The results suggest that the sustained-release formulation using PCL-PEG-PCL can be applied to control the release of hGH.

[PMID: 31901369 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2019.12.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2019] [Revised: 12/27/2019] [Accepted: 12/28/2019] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Due to the circadian rhythm regulation of almost every biological process in the human body, physiological and biochemical conditions vary considerably over the course of a 24-h period. Thus, optimal drug delivery and therapy should be effectively controlled to achieve the desired therapeutic plasma concentrations and therapeutic drug responses at the required time according to chronopharmacological concepts, rather than continuous maintenance of constant drug concentrations for an extended time period. For many drugs, it is not always necessary to constantly deliver a drug into the human body under disease conditions due to rhythmic variations. Pulsatile drug delivery systems (PDDSs) have been receiving more attention in pharmaceutical development by providing a predetermined lag period, followed by a fast or rate-controlled drug release after application. PDDSs are characterized by a programmed drug release, which may release a drug at repeatable pulses to match the biological and clinical needs of a given disease therapy. This review article focuses on thermoresponsive gating membranes embedded with liquid crystals (LCs) for transdermal drug delivery using PDDS technology. In addition, the principal rationale and the advanced approaches for the use of PDDSs, the marketed products of chronotherapeutic DDSs with pulsatile function designed by various PDDS technologies, pulsatile drug delivery designed with thermoresponsive polymers, challenges and opportunities of transdermal drug delivery, and novel approaches of LC systems for drug delivery are reviewed and discussed. A brief overview of all academic research articles concerning single LC- or binary LC-embedded thermoresponsive membranes with a switchable on-off permeation function through topical application by an external temperature control, which may modulate the dosing interval and administration time according to the therapeutic needs of the human body, is also compiled and presented. In the near future, since thermal-based approaches have become a well-accepted method to enhance transdermal delivery of different water-soluble drugs and macromolecules, a combination of the thermal-assisted approach with thermoresponsive LCs membranes will have the potential to improve PDDS applications but still poses a great challenge.

Abstract
The pertinent issue of resources shortage arising from global climate change in the recent years has accentuated the importance of materials that are environmentally friendly. Despite the merits of current material like cellulose as the most abundant natural polysaccharide on earth, the incorporation of lignocellulosic biomass has the potential to value-add the recent development of cellulose-derivatives in drug delivery systems. Lignocellulosic biomass, with a hierarchical structure is comprised of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. As an excellent substrate that is renewable, biodegradable, biocompatible and chemically accessible for modified materials, lignocellulosic biomass sets forth a myriad of applications. To date, materials derived from lignocellulosic biomass have been extensively explored for new technological development and applications, such as biomedical, green electronics and energy products. In this review, chemical constituents of lignocellulosic biomass are first discussed before we critically examine the potential alternatives in the field of biomedical application. In addition, the pretreatment methods for extracting cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin from lignocellulosic biomass as well as their biological applications including drug delivery, biosensor, tissue engineering etc. are reviewed. It is anticipated there will be an increasing interest and research findings in cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin from natural resources, which help provide important directions for the development in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Preparation of an intelligent drug delivery system which releases the drug in response to the environmental stimuli in a controlled manner is one of the interesting subjects and it is the purpose of this study. Films composed of Eudragit RS and different percentages of plasticizers (0%, 5%, 10%, or 20% w/w based on polymer weight), poly ethylene glycol 400 or triethyl citrate (TEC), were prepared by solvent casting method. Glass transition temperatures of the films were determined by differential scanning colorimetery. Water uptake and drug permeation through membranes with the glass transition temperature (Tg) close to the body temperature were investigated. Propranolol hydrochloride and acetaminophen were used as model drugs in permeation studies. The results showed that Eudragit RS films with 20% of either plasticizer showed thermo-responsivity around body temperature. The water uptake of the films and the permeation rates of both drugs increased at temperatures above the Tg of the films. The films containing TEC was found to be more appropriate thermo-responsive membrane due to a higher sensitivity to temperature and more ability to control drug release.

Abstract
Membrane technology is broadly applied in the medical field. The ability of membranous systems to effectively control the movement of chemical entities is pivotal to their significant potential for use in both drug delivery and surgical/medical applications. An alteration in the physical properties of a polymer in response to a change in environmental conditions is a behavior that can be utilized to prepare 'smart' drug delivery systems. Stimuli-responsive or 'smart' polymers are polymers that upon exposure to small changes in the environment undergo rapid changes in their microstructure. A stimulus, such as a change in pH or temperature, thus serves as a trigger for the release of drug from membranous drug delivery systems that are formulated from stimuli-responsive polymers. This article has sought to review the use of stimuli-responsive polymers that have found application in membranous drug delivery systems. Polymers responsive to pH and temperature have been extensively addressed in this review since they are considered the most important stimuli that may be exploited for use in drug delivery, and biomedical applications such as in tissue engineering. In addition, dual-responsive and glucose-responsive membranes have been also addressed as membranes responsive to diverse stimuli.
