Dexamethasone–pDMAEMA polymeric conjugates reduce inflammatory biomarkers in human intestinal epithelial monolayers

Abstract: The mucoadhesive polymer, poly(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (pDMAEMA) was synthesised by living radical polymerisation and subsequently conjugated by esterification to the anti-inflammatory corticosteroid, dexamethasone, to separately yield two concentrations of conjugates with ratios of 10:1 and 20:1 active:polymer. The hypothesis was to test whether the active agent maintained in vitro bioactivity when exposed to the apical side of human intestinal epithelial monolayers, Caco-2 and mucous-covered HT29-MT… Show more

“…Steroids are commonly prescribed for acute exacerbations of both UC and CD, but prolonged use can lead to undesirable systemic sideeffects (3,4). Other therapies for IBD include aminosalicylates, antibiotics, and immunosuppressive agents.…”
