Novel in vitro cell culture models for studying pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions following oral administration
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-09-21)
In this study different in vitro models were developed to study the long term and short term drug- drug interactions occurring upon oral administration. MDCK cells were stably transfected for the simultaneous expression ...
Topical Clear Aqueous Nanomicellar Formulations For Anterior And Posterior Ocular Drug Delivery
(2015-08-04)
The objective of this study was to develop a clear, aqueous drug loaded
nanomicellar formulation (NMF) for the back-of-the-eye delivery. Hydrophobic
drugs such as cyclosporine, resolvin analog (RX-10045), dexamethasone ...
Topical Clear Aqueous Nanomicellar Formulation for Anterior and Posterior Ocular Drug Delivery
(University of Missouri–Kansas City, 2015)
in the core of polymeric micelles and solubilized. Polymeric amphiphilic molecules (e.g., hydrogenated castor oil – 40 (HCO-40) and Vit. E TPGS) are known to generate nanomicellar constructs with hydrophobic core and hydrophilic corona. However, constructs...
Fomulation and Delivery of Drugs for Macular Edema and Retinoblastoma; Synthesis and In Vitro Characterization of Doxorubicin Loaded Surface Modified Nanoparticles Using PLGA-PEG-PLGA Polymer
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-01-20)
Macular edema (ME) is caused by central extravascular swelling of the macula resulting in a significant loss of visual activity. Corticosteroids are widely used in the treatment of ME. In this project, nanoparticles of ...
Transporter-Targeted Prodrug Delivery to Improve Oral Bioavailability of Saquinavir
(2015-05-22)
Saquinavir (SQV) is the first antiretroviral protease inhibitor approved by Food and
Drug Administration in the United States for the treatment of HIV infection due to its
potent anti-HIV activity. However, some unfavorable ...
Ocular pharmacokinetics and efficacy of various amino acid and dipeptide prodrugs of ganciclovir
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-10-02)
Herpes simplex virus infections (HSV) in the eye are one of the leading causes of blindness across the world. Current available treatment options to treat HSV infections are solutions of trifluorothymidine (TFT), idoxuridine ...
Ritonavir - A Novel Multidrug Resistance Modulator in Cancer Chemotherapy and Ocular Neovascular Diseases
(2014-08-28)
Multidrug resistance (MDR), a clinical outcome characterized by subtherapeutic
intracellular drug concentration, is one of the predominant factors limiting effective cancer
chemotherapy. Several possible mechanisms and ...
Stereoisomeric Prodrugs to Improve Ocular And Oral Absorption of Prednisolone
(2015-08-11)
The primary objective of this project is to develop stereoisomeric prodrugs such as Lvaline-
D-valine-prednisolone (LDP) and D-valine-L-valine-prednisolone (DLP) to improve
ocular and oral absorption of prednisolone. ...
Novel Folic Acid Targeted Nanomicelles For Delivery Of Hydrophobic Drugs To The Back Of The Eye
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)
Overall aim of this research project is to develop folic acid targeted nanomicelles
loaded with insoluble hydrophobic drugs for delivery to posterior segment of the eye.
Retinoblastoma and uveitis are diseases that ...
