The goal of present work was to investigate the effects of rupturable material ethyl cellulose combines with erodible material Klucel EXF on the pulsatile release pattern of Candesartan cilexetil in order to prevent morning rise in blood pressure. A tablet prepared by compression coating method contains core and coat components. Core consists of active ingredients with its various superdisintegrants where as coat contains different grades of ethyl cellulose and Klucel HXF in various combinations. All these tablets were evaluated for its micromeritics, weight variations, hardness, friability and in vitro dissolution testing. Drug-excipients interactions were carried out by FTIR. Dissolution studies were carried out in simulated gastric fluid followed by phosphate buffer of pH 6.5. The optimized formulation PT6 which give lag time of 6 hrs and released 99.10 % within 7 hr, as well as found to be stable in ICH stability testing guidelines.
The advancement of the oral route for macromolecules has gained a lot of attention due to its noninvasive nature, safe and challenging in active research but with limited success. Oral administration poses challenges due to poor solubility, short half-life, quick elimination and the physical, chemical and biological barriers of the gastrointestinal tract. Approaches of past for improving oral absorption, such as enhancers, mucoadhesive delivery and enzyme inhibitors have been taken over by novel approaches like advanced liposomes, self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system, nanoparticles and targeted delivery. Eudratech™ Pep, Peptelligence, Rani Pill and Pharm Film are the emerging technologies for delivering oral proteins and peptide. Calcitonin, semaglutide and octreotide are the peptides available in the market for oral delivery as outcomes of these technologies.
Background: The development of advanced treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the utmost need of an era. TNBC is recognized as the most aggressive, metastatic cancer and the leading cause of mortality in females worldwide. The lack of expression of triple receptors namely, estrogen, progesterone, and human epidermal receptor2 defined TNBC. Objective: The current review introduced the novel biomarkers such as miRNA and family, PD1, EGFR, VEGF, TILs, P53, AR and PI3K, etc. contributed significantly to the prognosis and diagnosis of TNBC. Once diagnosed the utilization advanced approaches available for TNBC because of the limitations of chemotherapy. Novel approaches include lipid-based (liposomes, SLN, NLC, and SNEDDS), polymer-based (micelle, nanoparticles, dendrimers, and quantum dots), advanced nanocarriers such as (exosomes, antibody and peptide-drug conjugates), carbon-based nanocarriers (Carbon nanotubes, and graphene oxide). Lipid-based delivery is used for excellent carriers for hydrophobic drugs, biocompatibility, and lesser systemic toxicities than chemotherapeutic agents. Polymer-based approaches are preferred over lipids for providing longer circulation time, nanosize, high loading efficiency, high linking; avoiding the expulsion of drugs, targeted action, diagnostic and biosensing abilities. Advanced approaches like exosomes, conjugated moieties are preferred over polymeric for possessing potency, high penetrability, biomarkers, and avoiding the toxicity of tissues. Carbon-based gained wide applicability for their unique properties like a versatile carrier, prognostic, diagnostic, sensing, photodynamic, and photothermal characteristics. Conclusion: The survival rate can be increased by utilizing several kinds of biomarkers. The advanced approaches can also be significantly useful in the prognosis and theranostic of triple-negative breast cancer. One of the biggest successes in treating with nanotechnology-based approaches is the marked reduction of systemic toxicity with high therapeutic effectiveness compared with chemotherapy, surgery, etc. The requirements such as prompt diagnosis, longer circulation time, high efficiency, and high potency, can be fulfilled with these nanocarriers.
Background: In the last decade among the current cancers, skin cancer is emerging and rising rapidly. The melanoma and non-melanoma type contributed mainly to skin cancer and is considered metastatic and deadly. Extreme exposure to ultra-violet radiation (depletion of the ozone layer or industry exposure) leads to an enormous rise in cases of skin cancers. Objectives: The previous therapy includes surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation which are invasive methods and greatly associated with several adverse effects on healthy tissues. The current review aimed to explore the identification of novel biomarkers (miRNA, S100 Family and BRAF, etc.) and nanotechnology-based approaches for the prevention, prognosis, diagnosis, and effective therapy for all types of skin cancers. Results: The results showed that several biomarkers are capable of recognizing the presence of melanoma and thereby improving the survival rate. The lipid-based nanocarriers (liposomes, SLN, NLC) for hydrophobic drugs serve as the best carrier and provide biocompatibility and stability to the antitumor agents for topical delivery. Meanwhile, Vesicular nanocarriers (niosomes, ethosomes) are gaining significance because of nanosize scale, higher penetration ability through stratum corneum, greater stability, and non-toxic in nature. Concerning the polymer-based approaches (micelle, dendrimer, and hydrogels) offer additional benefits like targeted action, controlled delivery, longer circulation time, and high loading efficiency. Approaches of nanoparticles and carbon-based approaches (nanotubes, graphene oxide) are widely utilized for possessing biosensing and diagnostic properties. Moreover, the recently utilized microneedle technique along with immunotherapy gain tremendous significance for providing synergistic pathways and is capable of eradicating the melanoma cells from the body by stimulating the immune system. Conclusion: The prompt recognition of melanoma or non-melanoma type through novel biomarkers significantly enhances the survival rate in many patients. Upon identification, the nanocarrier-based approaches showed marked efficacy in treating several types of skin cancer.
Currently, a popular era in nanomedicine is the implementation of RNA nanoparticles for various diseases and their diagnosis. RNA interference (RNAi) involves the arrangement of gene mediating mechanisms where coding and non-coding are carried out. The targeted control of gene utterance via siRNA system by nanocarriers showed an epic impact on modifying therapeutic efficacy. The article endeavours to highlight the mechanism of siRNA with concern to possible applications which are established on cancer therapy. In the current scenario to discuss the possible anti-viral effectiveness of nanoparticles with particular reference to SARS-CoV. Self-assembled nanoparticle (NP) is developed and it competently delivers to small interfering RNA (siRNA) intravenously to the tumour. The nanoparticle was found by mixing with siRNA, carrier, DNA, and lipids, preceded by after-change. Newly FDA appreciation of the first polymer-drug and additional ones in the clinically linked RNA polymer has to be highly therapeutic and diagnostic value. It has been established to be a particularly useful means for cell-type definite delivery of other RNA therapeutics like siRNA. While RNAi has helped speed up the discovery and understanding functions of a gene, it also has great potential as a therapeutic and potentially prophylactic modality. This article stated the development in the RNA polymer and also provides some examples of their diagnostic applications and therapeutics special emphasis on the anti-cancer and antiviral strategy. Patisiran and Givosiran are the recently approved si-RNA based products available in the market.
