Abstract
BACKGROUND Budesonide high-volume saline irrigations (HVSIs) are routinely used to treat chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) due to improved sinonasal delivery and efficacy compared to intranasal corticosteroid sprays. The off-label use of budesonide is assumed to be safe, with several studies suggesting the systemically absorbed dose of budesonide HVSI is low. However, the actual budesonide dose retained in the sinonasal cavity following HVSI is unknown. The objective of this study was to quantify the retained dose of budesonide after HVSI. METHODS Adult patients diagnosed with CRS who had undergone endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) and were prescribed budesonide HVSI were enrolled into a prospective, observational cohort study. Patients performed budesonide HVSI (0.5 mg dose) under supervision in an outpatient clinic, and irrigation effluent was collected. High-performance liquid chromatography was employed to determine the dose of budesonide retained after HVSI. RESULTS Twenty-four patients met inclusion criteria. The average corrected retained dose of budesonide across the cohort was 0.171 ± 0.087 mg (37.9% of administered budesonide). Increased time from ESS significantly impacted the measured retained dose, with those 3 months post-ESS retaining 27.4% of administered budesonide (P = .0004). CONCLUSION The retained dose of budesonide in patients with CRS after HVSI was found to be significantly higher than previously estimated and decreased with time post-ESS. Given that budesonide HVSI is a cornerstone of care in CRS, defining the retained dose and the potential systemic implications is critical to understanding the safety of budesonide HVSI.

Abstract
As bioactive molecules, peptides and proteins are essential in living organisms, including animals and humans. Defects in their function lead to various diseases in humans. Therefore, the use of proteins in treating multiple diseases, such as cancers and hepatitis, is increasing. There are different routes to administer proteins, which have limitations due to their large and hydrophilic structure. Another limitation is the presence of biological and lipophilic membranes that do not allow proteins to pass quickly. There are different strategies to increase the absorption of proteins from these biological membranes. One of these strategies is to use compounds as absorption enhancers. Absorption enhancers are compounds such as surfactants, phospholipids and cyclodextrins that increase protein passage through the biological membrane and their absorption by different mechanisms. This review focuses on using other absorption enhancers and their mechanism in protein administration routes.

Abstract
A recommended first-line acute bacterial rhinosinusitis (ABR) treatment regimen includes a high dose of orally administered amoxicillin, despite its frequent systemic adverse reactions coupled with poor oral bioavailability. Therefore, to overcome these issues, nasal administration of amoxicillin might become a potential approach for treating ABR locally. The present study aimed to develop a suitable carrier system for improved local nasal delivery of amoxicillin employing the combination of albumin nanoparticles and gellan gum, an ionic-sensitive polymer, under the Quality by Design methodology framework. The application of albumin nanocarrier for local nasal antibiotic therapy means a novel approach by hindering the nasal absorption of the drug through embedding into an in situ gelling matrix, further prolonging the drug release in the nasal cavity. The developed formulations were characterized, including mucoadhesive properties, in vitro drug release and antibacterial activities. Based on the results, 0.3 % w/v gellan gum concentration was selected as the optimal in situ gelling matrix. Essentially, each formulation adequately inhibited the growth of five common nasal pathogens in ABR. In conclusion, the preparation of albumin-based nanoparticles integrated with in situ ionic-sensitive polymer provides promising ability as nanocarrier systems for delivering amoxicillin intranasally for local antibiotic therapy.

Abstract
In this present formulation study, vinpocetine-loaded nano-spray-dried polymeric micelles were developed via nano-spray-drying. Three different mucoadhesive excipients were applied in the studies, namely chitosan, hyaluronic acid and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. In all cases, the formulations had a proper particle size and drug content after drying with spherical morphology and amorphous structure. After rapid dissolution in water, the polymeric micelles had a particle size around 100-130 nm, in monodisperse size distribution. The high encapsulation efficiency (>80%) and high solubilization (approx. 300-fold increase in thermodynamic solubility) contributed to rapid drug release (>80% in the first 15 min) and fast passive diffusion at simulated nasal conditions. The formulated prototype preparations fulfilled the demands of a low-viscosity, moderately mucoadhesive nasal drug delivery system, which may be capable of increasing the overall bioavailability of drugs administered via the auspicious nasal drug delivery route.

Abstract
The nasal mucosa, being accessible and highly vascularized, opens up new opportunities for the systemic administration of drugs. However, there are several protective functions like the mucociliary clearance, a physiological barrier which represents is a difficult obstacle for drug candidates to overcome. For this reason, effective testing procedures are required in the preclinical phase of pharmaceutical development. Based on a recently reported immortalized porcine nasal epithelial cell line, we developed a test platform based on a tissue-compatible microfluidic chip. In this study, a biomimetic glass chip, which was equipped with a controlled bidirectional airflow to induce a physiologically relevant wall shear stress on the epithelial cell layer, was microfabricated. By developing a membrane transfer technique, the epithelial cell layer could be pre-cultivated in a static holder prior to cultivation in a microfluidic environment. The dynamic cultivation within the chip showed a homogenous distribution of the mucus film on top of the cell layer and a significant increase in cilia formation compared to the static cultivation condition. In addition, the recording of the ciliary transport mechanism by microparticle image velocimetry was successful. Using FITC-dextran 4000 as an example, it was shown that this nasal mucosa on a chip is suitable for permeation studies. The obtained permeation coefficient was in the range of values determined by means of other established in vitro and in vivo models. This novel nasal mucosa on chip could, in future, be automated and used as a substitute for animal testing.

Abstract
Rasagiline mesylate (RM) is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor that is commonly used to alleviate the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. However, it suffers from low oral bioavailability due to its extensive hepatic metabolism in addition to its hydrophilic nature which limits its ability to pass through the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and reach the central nervous system where it exerts its pharmacological effect. Thus, this study aims to form RM-loaded spanlastic vesicles for intranasal (IN) administration to overcome its hepatic metabolism and permit its direct delivery to the brain. RM-loaded spanlastics were prepared using thin film hydration (TFH) and modified spraying technique (MST). A 23 factorial design was constructed to study and optimize the effects of the independent formulation variables, namely, Span type, Span: Brij 35 ratio, and sonication time on the vesicles᾽ characteristics in each preparation technique. The optimized system prepared using MST (MST 2) has shown higher desirability factor with smaller PS and higher EE%; thus, it was selected for further in vivo evaluation where it revealed that the extent of RM distribution from the intranasally administered spanlastics to the brain was comparable to that of the IV drug solution with significantly high brain-targeting efficiency (458.47%). These results suggest that the IN administration of the optimized RM-loaded spanlastics could be a promising, non-invasive alternative for the efficient delivery of RM to brain tissues to exert its pharmacological activities without being dissipated to other body organs which subsequently may result in higher pharmacological efficiency and better safety profile.

Abstract
Intranasal (IN) drug delivery is a non-invasive and effective route for the administration of drugs to the brain at pharmacologically relevant concentrations, bypassing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and minimizing adverse side effects. IN drug delivery can be particularly promising for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. The drug delivery mechanism involves the initial drug penetration through the nasal epithelial barrier, followed by drug diffusion in the perivascular or perineural spaces along the olfactory or trigeminal nerves, and final extracellular diffusion throughout the brain. A part of the drug may be lost by drainage through the lymphatic system, while a part may even enter the systemic circulation and reach the brain by crossing the BBB. Alternatively, drugs can be directly transported to the brain by axons of the olfactory nerve. To improve the effectiveness of drug delivery to the brain by the IN route, various types of nanocarriers and hydrogels and their combinations have been proposed. This review paper analyzes the main biomaterials-based strategies to enhance IN drug delivery to the brain, outlining unsolved challenges and proposing ways to address them.
