Double-Coated Biodegradable Poly (Butyl Cyanoacrylate) Nanoparticulate Delivery Systems For Brain Targeting Of Doxorubicin Via Oral Administration, Neeraj Kaushal
Theses and Dissertations
Primary brain cancer cells grow within the brain or cancer cells can metastasis from different site of the body into brain. The major hurdle in the treatment of brain cancer is the presence of blood-brain barrier (BBB). Additionally, acquired multidrug-resistant (MDR) impedes the success of long-term chemotherapy. Therefore, the objective of this investigation is to evaluate the brain targeting potential of orally administered poly(butyl cyanoacrylate) nanoparticulate delivery systems (PBCA-NPDS), double-coated with Tween 80 and polyethylene glycol (PEG) 20000 for brain delivery of doxorubicin, that does not cross the BBB by itself. And, evaluate the MDR reversal potential of PBCA-NPDS. Doxorubicin-loaded …
Particle Shape Engineering For Improved Drug Delivery To Peripheral Lungs By Non-Invasive Route, Snehal Shukla
Particle Shape Engineering For Improved Drug Delivery To Peripheral Lungs By Non-Invasive Route, Snehal Shukla
Theses and Dissertations
Inhalation of therapeutics has been gaining importance owing to immense advantages offered by pulmonary route and have attracted significant advancements in the pharmaceutical field. However, pulmonary drug delivery has been challenging because of the complexity of the respiratory tract and the existing defense mechanism. The pulmonary drug delivery has experienced advances in approaches and strategies to combat the existing challenges by tailoring the physicochemical properties of the delivery carriers and enabling both localized as well as systemic delivery. Pulmonary drug delivery is governed by several biophysical parameters of the delivery carriers such as particle size, shape, density, charge, and surface …
