Emerging delivery approaches for targeted pulmonary fibrosis treatment
Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2023 Dec 6;204:115147. doi: 10.1016/j.addr.2023.115147. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a progressive, and life-threatening interstitial lung disease which causes scarring in the lung parenchyma and thereby affects architecture and functioning of lung. It is an irreversible damage to lung functioning which is related to epithelial cell injury, immense accumulation of immune cells and inflammatory cytokines, and irregular recruitment of extracellular matrix. The inflammatory cytokines trigger the differentiation of fibroblasts into activated fibroblasts, also known as myofibrobla...

Microbubble-assisted ultrasound for inner ear drug delivery
Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2023 Dec 1;204:115145. doi: 10.1016/j.addr.2023.115145. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTreating pathologies of the inner ear is a major challenge. To date, a wide range of procedures exists for administering therapeutic agents to the inner ear, with varying degrees of success. The key is to deliver therapeutics in a way that is minimally invasive, effective, long-lasting, and without adverse effects on vestibular and cochlear function. Microbubble-assisted ultrasound ("sonoporation") is a promising new modality that can be adapted to the inner ear. Combining ultrasound technology with microbubbles in the...

Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2023 Nov 29:115146. doi: 10.1016/j.addr.2023.115146. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInhaled medicines continue to be an essential part of treatment for respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cystic fibrosis. In addition, inhalation technology, which is an active area of research and innovation to deliver medications via the lung to the bloodstream, offers potential advantages such as rapid onset of action, enhanced bioavailability, and reduced side effects for local treatments. Certain inhaled macromolecules and particles can also end up in different organs via ly...

In situ cellular hitchhiking of nanoparticles for drug delivery
Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2023 Nov 24;204:115143. doi: 10.1016/j.addr.2023.115143. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSince the inception of the concept of "magic bullet", nanoparticles have evolved to be one of the most effective carriers in drug delivery. Nanoparticles improve the therapeutic efficacy of drugs offering benefits to treating various diseases. Unlike free drugs which freely diffuse and distribute through the body, nanoparticles protect the body from the drug by reducing non-specific interactions while also improving the drug's pharmacokinetics. Despite acquiring some FDA approvals, further clinical application of nano...
