Nanoaggregates made from amino acid-based polymers have been an important platform for targeted drug delivery systems such as the lungs. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to develop tyrosine-based poly(ester amide)s (Tyr-PEA) for dry powder inhaler (DPI) of a potent drug (fluticasone propionate [FP]) using interfacial polymerization. The molecular and surface profiling characteristics were evaluated using Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, particle size analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance, differential scanning calorimetry, and scanning electron micrographs. The aerodynamic performance was evaluated using the NGI. The results confirmed the formation of the PEA and FP-loaded Tyr-PEA with an average particle size of, 45.39 ± 6.32 nm. The produced FP/Tyr-PEA showed entrapment efficiency and encapsulation capacity of FP of 92.32% and 0.526% respectively, which enabled the delivery of this potent drug in a reasonable dose. The in-vitro performance of the FPloaded PEA was compared to a marketed product and results revealed a significant enhancement of the emitted dose (87.29% vs. 59% respectively [t-test, p < 0.05]). FP-loaded Tyr-PEA produced a higher respirable dose when compared to the marketed FP DPI (48.63 μg vs. 34.15 μg). Overall, FP-loaded Tyr-PEA was successfully prepared with optimal performance. Tyr-PEA-based nanoparticles provide a potential platform for targeted drug delivery, particularly potent actives.

“…The present COVID-19 epidemic has sparked a resurgence of interest in pulmonary medicine drug carriers and their use in the treatment of respiratory illnesses. For example, according to Duong et al, for the existing COVID-19 condition, aerogel technologies have great potential for resolving pulmonary drug-delivery problems as in Figure 9 [ 195 ].…”

Emerging Trends in Nanotechnology: Aerogel-Based Materials for Biomedical Applications

At present, aerogel is one of the most interesting materials globally. The network of aerogel consists of pores with nanometer widths, which leads to a variety of functional properties and broad applications. Aerogel is categorized as inorganic, organic, carbon, and biopolymers, and can be modified by the addition of advanced materials and nanofillers. Herein, this review critically discusses the basic preparation of aerogel from the sol–gel reaction with derivation and modification of a standard method to produce various aerogels for diverse functionalities. In addition, the biocompatibility of various types of aerogels were elaborated. Then, biomedical applications of aerogel were focused on this review as a drug delivery carrier, wound healing agent, antioxidant, anti-toxicity, bone regenerative, cartilage tissue activities and in dental fields. The clinical status of aerogel in the biomedical sector is shown to be similarly far from adequate. Moreover, due to their remarkable properties, aerogels are found to be preferably used as tissue scaffolds and drug delivery systems. The advanced studies in areas including self-healing, additive manufacturing (AM) technology, toxicity, and fluorescent-based aerogel are crucially important and are further addressed.

“…The aforementioned PVDF nanofibres are also used for the manufacturing of a composite for the reinforcement of aerogels, 28 which are materials known for their superior thermal insulation properties that are used in buildings, aerospace engineering and healthcare technologies. [29][30][31] However, aerogels generally have a poor mechanical stability because of their nanoporous nature and their high porosity, which is the cause of their low thermal conductivity. The compressive strength and the flexibility of the aerogel composites can be significantly improved through reinforcement, making these materials easier to handle in construction works and upon integration with existing building structures.…”
