Chitosan and Its Derivatives for Application in Mucoadhesive Drug Delivery Systems

TL;DR: This review has particularly focused on the effect of chemical derivatization on the mucoadhesive properties of chitosan, and other important properties including water-solubility, stability, controlled release, permeation enhancing effect, and in vivo performance are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oral absorption of peptides and nanoparticles across the human intestine: Opportunities, limitations and studies in human tissues.

TL;DR: The opportunities and predictivity of various in vitro systems with special emphasis on human intestine in Ussing chambers are discussed, and characteristics of common in vitro cell culture systems are discussed and compared to those of human intestinal tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perspectives on the past, present, and future of cancer nanomedicine.

TL;DR: The clinical trials of experimental nanomedicine have experienced unexpected adverse effects with modest improvement in efficacy when compared to current frontline therapy, which can widen the therapeutic window of an anticancer drug of interest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Materials for oral delivery of proteins and peptides

TL;DR: Physiological barriers to the oral delivery of protein-based therapies are discussed, along with the current translational landscape and state of the art of materials for oral protein delivery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid transport of deformation-tuned nanoparticles across biological hydrogels and cellular barriers

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that (poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) core)-(lipid shell) NPs with moderate rigidity display enhanced diffusivity through mucus compared with some synthetic mucus penetration particles (MPPs), achieving a mucosal and tumor penetrating capability superior to that of both their soft and hard counterparts.

Characterization of the human colon carcinoma cell line (Caco-2) as a model system for intestinal epithelial permeability

TL;DR: It is concluded that Caco-2 cells grown on collagen-coated polycarbonate membranes should represent a valuable transport model system for the small intestinal epithelium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyionic hydrocolloids for the intestinal delivery of protein drugs: alginate and chitosan--a review.

TL;DR: Alginate, being an anionic polymer with carboxyl end groups, is a good mucoadhesive agent and cross-linked alginate has more capacity to retain the entrapped drugs and mixing of alginates with other polymers such as neutral gums, chitosan, and eudragit have been found to solve the problem of drug leaching.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mucus-penetrating nanoparticles for drug and gene delivery to mucosal tissues.

TL;DR: The tenacious mucus barrier properties that have precluded the efficient penetration of therapeutic particles are described and the design and development of new mucus-penetrating particles that may avoid rapid mucus clearance mechanisms are reviewed to provide targeted or sustained drug delivery for localized therapies in mucosal tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

From 3D cell culture to organs-on-chips.

TL;DR: New advances in 3D culture that leverage microfabrication technologies from the microchip industry and microfluidics approaches to create cell-culture microen environments that both support tissue differentiation and recapitulate the tissue-tissue interfaces, spatiotemporal chemical gradients, and mechanical microenvironments of living organs are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human gut-on-a-chip inhabited by microbial flora that experiences intestinal peristalsis-like motions and flow

TL;DR: This gut-on-a-chip recapitulates multiple dynamic physical and functional features of human intestine that are critical for its function within a controlled microfluidic environment that is amenable for transport, absorption, and toxicity studies, and hence it should have great value for drug testing as well as development of novel intestinal disease models.
