The active targeting to alveolar macrophages (AM) is an attractive strategy improve the therapeutic efficacy of 'old' drugs currently used in clinical practice for treatment pulmonary tuberculosis. Previous studies highlighted ability respirable solid lipid nanoparticle assemblies (SLNas), loaded with rifampicin (RIF) and functionalized a novel synthesized mannose-based surfactant (MS), both alone blend sodium taurocholate, efficiently target AM via mannose receptor-mediated mechanism. Here,...
Recently, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) have attracted increasing attention owing to their potential as an oral delivery system, promoting intestinal absorption in the lymphatic circulation which plays a role disseminating metastatic cancer cells and infectious agents throughout body. SLN features can be exploited for of theranostics. Therefore, aim this work was design characterise self-assembled (SALNs) encapsulate stabilise iron oxide non-covalently coated with heparin (Fe@hepa) model...
The mimicking of physiological conditions is crucial for the success accurate in vitro studies. For inhaled nanoparticles, which are designed being deposited on alveolar epithelium and taken up by macrophages, it relevant to investigate interactions with pulmonary surfactant lining alveoli. As a matter fact, formation lipid corona layer around nanoparticles could modulate cell internalization fate transported drugs. Based this concept, present research focused between Solid Lipid...
There is a pressing need for efficacious therapies in the field of respiratory diseases and infections. Lipid nanocarriers, administered through aerosols, represent promising tool maximizing therapeutic concentration targeted cells minimizing systemic exposure. However, this approach requires application efficient safe nanomaterials. Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), an endocannabinoid-like endogenous lipid, plays crucial role providing protective mechanisms during inflammation, making it...
