  • The BBB normally blocks nearly 98% of drugs from accessing the central nervous system, so FUS has the potential to address a major challenge in intracranial drug delivery by providing targeted and reversible BBB disruption. (wikipedia.org)
  • Modulation of cytokine TNF-α by the rasayana drug P. marsupium is related with its potential anti-diabetic activity. (ijp-online.com)
  • Furthermore, the GNP-corked NCNCs were demonstrated to function as novel drug delivery carriers, capable of effective (i) delivery of paclitaxel to tumor-associated myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC), (ii) MPO-regulated release, and (iii) blockade of MDSC immunosuppressive potential.

  • Smart materials that can be triggered by external stimuli are seen with high potential for innovative treatments and improved drug delivery systems by regulatory agencies like the FDA and EMA. (researchgate.net)
  • The prodrug approach is rapidly becoming a crucial part in the stratagem of delivery of drugs. (ijpsonline.com)
  • Ultrasound is a noninvasive and visual theranostic modality that can be used to track drug carriers, trigger drug release, and improve local drug sediment with high spatial precision [ 5 , 6 ]. (hindawi.com)
  • The maximum drug release rates of BP-PEG-DOX-NIR reached 33.23% and 28.67% at temperatures of 35°C and 45°C, with differences of over 10% compared to the non laser group. (frontiersin.org)
  • Hence to prolong the gastric residence time and to get a controlled release of drug and reduce dosing frequency, it was proposed to develop floating drug delivery system of Ondansetron hydrochloride. (allresearchjournal.com)
  • In the first hour, the DDS exhibited a delayed cumulative release of 29%, compared to the cumulative release of 62% by the free drug. (sun.ac.za)
