Hydrophilic Ionic Liquids as Ingredients of Gel-Based Dermal Formulations.

AAPS PharmSciTech
Ionic liquids (ILs) have several properties that offer many advantages in dermal drug delivery systems. Depending on the chemical structure, ILs can be used for protection against microorganisms, to enhance skin penetration, and as a solvent. In the ...

Towards soft robotic devices for site-specific drug delivery.

Expert review of medical devices
Considerable research efforts have recently been dedicated to the establishment of various drug delivery systems (DDS) that are mechanical/physical, chemical and biological/molecular DDS. In this paper, we report on the recent advances in site-specif...

Magnetic nanoparticles and nanocomposites for remote controlled therapies.

Journal of controlled release : official journal of the Controlled Release Society
This review highlights the state-of-the-art in the application of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and their composites for remote controlled therapies. Novel macro- to nano-scale systems that utilize remote controlled drug release due to actuation of M...

A nanoparticulate drug-delivery system for glaucocalyxin A: formulation, characterization, increased in vitro, and vivo antitumor activity.

Drug delivery
Glaucocalyxin A (GLA) is a phytochemical component with multiple pharmacological activities; however, glaucocalyxin A's wider use has been restricted by its poor solubility. In this study, GLA nanosuspensions were prepared with precipitation-combined...
