Journal ArticleDOI
Lipid nanoparticles for prolonged topical delivery: an in vitro and in vivo investigation.
Carmelo Puglia,Paolo Blasi,Luisa Rizza,Aurelie Marie Madeleine Schoubben,Francesco Bonina,Carlo Rossi,Maurizio Ricci +6 more
TL;DR: Direct as well as indirect evidences corroborate the early reports on the usefulness of lipid nanoparticles as carriers for topical administration, stimulating new and deeper investigations in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cubosome dispersions as delivery systems for percutaneous administration of indomethacin
Elisabetta Esposito,Rita Cortesi,Markus Drechsler,Lydia Paccamiccio,Paolo Mariani,Catia Contado,Elisa Stellin,Enea Menegatti,Francesco Bonina,Carmelo Puglia +9 more
TL;DR: Reflectance spectroscopy demonstrated that indomethacin incorporated into MO dispersions can be released in a prolonged fashion and can be proposed as nanoparticulate systems able to control the percutaneous absorption of indometHacin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipid nanoparticles as novel delivery systems for cosmetics and dermal pharmaceuticals
Carmelo Puglia,Francesco Bonina +1 more
TL;DR: Solid lipid nanoparticles and the newest nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) show important advantages for dermal application of cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, and are able to enhance drug penetration into the skin, allowing increased targeting to the epidermis and consequently increasing treatment efficiency and reducing the systemic absorption of drugs and cosmetic actives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of indomethacin-loaded lipid nanoparticles by differential scanning calorimetry.
TL;DR: Indomethacin (IND)-loaded SLN and NLC were prepared and the organization and distribution of the different ingredients originating each type of nanoparticle system were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protective effect of Capparis spinosa on chondrocytes.
Annamaria Panico,Venera Cardile,F. Garufi,Carmelo Puglia,Francesco Bonina,Giuseppe Ronsisvalle +5 more
TL;DR: It is observed that LECS was able to counteract the harmful effects induced by IL-1beta, and appeared to be greater than that elicited by indomethacin, which is usually employed in joint diseases.
