Article Synopsis
  • Apoferritin-based systems are being researched for their potential use in vaccine delivery against viral diseases, offering benefits like enhanced stability and reduced side effects.
  • The study focuses on using a specific tumor antigen, EGFRvIII peptide, in combination with apoferritin to create a potentially effective peptide vaccine for cancer treatment.
  • The results indicate that varying the concentration of the peptide affects immune responses and antibody production, which is crucial for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine formulation.

Pharmaceutical films are polymeric formulations used as a delivery platform for administration of small and macromolecular drugs for local or systemic action. They can be produced by using synthetic, semi-synthetic, or natural polymers through solvent casting, electrospinning, hot-melt extrusion, and 3D printing methods, and depending on the components and the manufacturing methods used, the films allow the modulation of drug release. Moreover, they have advantages that have drawn interest in the development and evaluation of film application on the buccal, nasal, vaginal, and ocular mucosa.
