Book Synopsis Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Molecular Transporters for Probe, Drug, and SiRNA Delivery by : Christina Barnes Cooley
Download or read book Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Molecular Transporters for Probe, Drug, and SiRNA Delivery written by Christina Barnes Cooley and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My graduate studies have focused on the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel probe and drug delivery technologies. This research has explored the development of new molecular transporter scaffolds with a focus on step economy and translational costs as well as evaluation of their uptake and delivery properties in cells and animals. Chapter 1 provides a historical context and overview of guanidinium-rich molecular transporter technology. Chapter 2 describes the development of a new family of guanidinium-rich oligocarbonate molecular transporter which are flexibly and efficiently assembled by a one-step oligomerization strategy. These novel oligocarbonate transporters were shown to exhibit excellent uptake properties both in cells and animal models. Chapter 3 is directed at the utility of an oligomerization approach to generate molecular transporters by the design, synthesis, and evaluation of new aphipathic co-oligomers for the delivery of siRNA, an oligonucleotide cargo of intense therapeutic interest. Amphipathic carbonate co-oligomers were prepared by an oligomerization strategy and demonstrated to effectively package, deliver, and release functional siRNA in cells. Chapter 4 describes the effects of a branched guanidinium array on the transport and delivery efficiency of releasable dendrimeric guanidinium-rich transporters. These transporters were synthesized and demonstrated to deliver and release a small molecule for turnover by its intracellular target enzyme by bioluminescence assays in cells and transgenic animal models. Chapter 5 describes the design, synthesis, and preliminary biological evaluation of lipidated molecular transporter derivatives of the immunosuppressant drug rapamycin for topical delivery.

Book Synopsis The Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Molecular Transporter Conjugates and Their Encapsulation Inside Nanoparticles for Drug Delivery Applications by : Wesley Charles Galliher
Download or read book The Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Molecular Transporter Conjugates and Their Encapsulation Inside Nanoparticles for Drug Delivery Applications written by Wesley Charles Galliher and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological barriers prevent the uptake of many potentially harmful xenobiotics yet also limit the delivery and cellular entry of a variety of drugs to their targets. One approach to this problem selects only those compounds with appropriate properties, namely solubility in polar biological fluids yet also able to pass through the nonpolar cellular membrane. This restriction would therefore preclude the use of many polar (e.g. siRNA) and nonpolar (e.g. Taxol) compounds whose inherent physical properties cause problems with formulation, distribution or bioavailability. The research described herein utilizes an alternative strategy that involves molecular transporters, which are agents that, when attached to poorly soluble or poorly bioavailable drugs, produce conjugates that exhibit excellent water solubility and simultaneously an increased ability to cross tissue and cell barriers. Bioactivatable molecular transporter conjugates of the immunosuppressant drug Cyclosporin A incorporating disulfide linkers were developed, evaluated for their biological activity in vitro, and administered topically in an in vivo mouse model. In addition to the inherent physical properties limitation that prevents drug passage across the cell membrane, another significant contributor to the failure of many therapeutics is the overexpression of membrane proteins (e.g. P-glycoprotein or Pgp) that mediate the unidirectional efflux of drugs out of target cells, often doing so prior to the drug reaching its intracellular target. Bioactivatable oligoarginine transporter conjugates of Taxol, a substrate for Pgp, were prepared and shown to overcome efflux-mediated resistance in primary human ovarian cancer tissue ex vivo. The encapsulation of transporter conjugates inside biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles was also investigated as a way to achieve sustained release of transporter drug conjugates over extended periods of time, thereby avoiding metabolism or toxicity problems associated with a bolus administration of therapeutic agents. Nanoparticles encapsulating transporter-probe conjugates were formed using two different methods, and shown to release their encapsulated cargo over time under biologically relevant conditions.

Book Synopsis Membrane Transporters and Channels as Targets for Drugs by : Graça Soveral
Download or read book Membrane Transporters and Channels as Targets for Drugs written by Graça Soveral and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2020-01-03 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transporters and channels are membrane proteins that mediate the traffic of metabolites, water and ions across biological membranes. Membrane transport proteins are crucial to maintain homeostasis and assure cell survival upon intracellular or environmental stress. A failure of any of these transport systems may have dramatic consequences for cell function. There is increasing evidence that membrane transport proteins play important functions in healthy conditions and that their absence or dysfunction may cause diseases. In recent years much attention has been paid to diseases resulting from defective transporters (“carrier diseases”) and ion channels (“channelopathies”). Very interestingly, altered expression of transporters has been described in several human pathologies. On this basis, many transport proteins are well acknowledged targets for drugs. Many others are involved in drug delivery and disposition and/or are considered potential targets. Others are off-targets for drugs and then, are responsible for side effects. Thus, membrane protein drug discovery is now an emerging field where the search for physiological mechanisms of regulation and for chemical compounds as modulators of transport activity, present new opportunities for drug development and for new therapies. This Research Topic addresses the latest research advances in membrane transport proteins, stimulating future research on these important protein families.

Book Synopsis Drug Delivery to the Brain by : Margareta Hammarlund-Udenaes
Download or read book Drug Delivery to the Brain written by Margareta Hammarlund-Udenaes and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-03 with total page 737 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of new CNS drugs is notoriously difficult. Drugs must reach CNS target sites for action and these sites are protected by a number of barriers, the most important being the blood –brain barrier (BBB). Many factors are therefore critical to consider for CNS drug delivery, e.g. active/passive transport across the BBB, intra-brain distribution, and central/systemic pharmacokinetics, to name a few. Neurological disease and trauma conditions add further complexity because CNS barriers, drug distribution and pharmacokinetics are dynamic and often changed by disease/trauma. Knowledge of all these factors and their interplay in different conditions is of utmost importance for proper CNS drug development and disease treatment. In recent years much information has become available for a better understanding of the many factors important for CNS drug delivery and how they interact to affect drug action. This book describes small and large drug delivery to the brain with an emphasis on the physiology of the BBB and the principles and concepts for drug delivery across the BBB and distribution within the brain. It contains methods descriptions for studying drug delivery, routes and approaches of administering drugs into the brain, the influence of disease, and drug industry perspectives. Therewith, it contributes to an in-depth understanding of the interplay between brain (patho)-physiology and drug characteristics. Furthermore, the content is designed to be both cutting-edge and educational, so that the book can be used in high-level training of academic and industry scientists with full references to original publications.
Book Synopsis Computational Pharmaceutics by : Defang Ouyang
Download or read book Computational Pharmaceutics written by Defang Ouyang and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molecular modeling techniques have been widely used in drug discovery fields for rational drug design and compound screening. Now these techniques are used to model or mimic the behavior of molecules, and help us study formulation at the molecular level. Computational pharmaceutics enables us to understand the mechanism of drug delivery, and to develop new drug delivery systems. The book discusses the modeling of different drug delivery systems, including cyclodextrins, solid dispersions, polymorphism prediction, dendrimer-based delivery systems, surfactant-based micelle, polymeric drug delivery systems, liposome, protein/peptide formulations, non-viral gene delivery systems, drug-protein binding, silica nanoparticles, carbon nanotube-based drug delivery systems, diamond nanoparticles and layered double hydroxides (LDHs) drug delivery systems. Although there are a number of existing books about rational drug design with molecular modeling techniques, these techniques still look mysterious and daunting for pharmaceutical scientists. This book fills the gap between pharmaceutics and molecular modeling, and presents a systematic and overall introduction to computational pharmaceutics. It covers all introductory, advanced and specialist levels. It provides a totally different perspective to pharmaceutical scientists, and will greatly facilitate the development of pharmaceutics. It also helps computational chemists to look for the important questions in the drug delivery field. This book is included in the Advances in Pharmaceutical Technology book series.
