Purpose: Protein drugs cannot be delivered efficiently through oral routes. To address this challenge, we evaluated the effect of prolonged gastrointestinal transit on the bioavailability of insulin carried by magnetically responsive microparticles in the presence of an external magnetic field.
Methods: Magnetite nanocrystals and insulin were coencapsulated into poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microparticles and their effects on hypoglycemia were evaluated in mice in the presence of a circumferentially applied external magnetic field.
