Biomedicine Innovations and Its Nanohydrogel Classifications.

As one of the most cutting-edge and promising polymer crosslinked network nanoparticle systems. Polymer nano-sized hydrogels (nanogels) have been a hot topic in the biomedical field over the last few decades. Due to their unique characteristics, which include their relatively high drug encapsulation efficiency, ease of preparation, high tunability, low toxicity, high stability in serum and responsive behavior to a range of stimuli to facilitate drug release.

Synthesis of pH-responsive dimethylglycine surface-modified branched lipids for targeted delivery of antibiotics.

The rampant antimicrobial resistance crisis calls for efficient and targeted drug delivery of antibiotics at the infectious site. Hence, this study aimed to synthesize a pH-responsive dimethylglycine surface-modified branched lipid (DMGSAD-lipid). The structure of the synthesized lipid was fully confirmed.

An Oral 3D Printed PLGA-Tocopherol PEG Succinate Nanocomposite Hydrogel for High-Dose Methotrexate Delivery in Maintenance Chemotherapy.

High-dose methotrexate (HDMTX) is one of the chemotherapeutic agents used to treat a variety of cancers in both adults and children. However, the toxicity associated with HDMTX has resulted in the spread of infections and treatment interruption. Further, poor bioavailability due to efflux pump activities mediated by P-glycoprotein has also been linked to poor therapeutic effects of methotrexate following oral administrations.

pH-Responsive Micelles From an Oleic Acid Tail and Propionic Acid Heads Dendritic Amphiphile for the Delivery of Antibiotics.

The aim of this study was to synthesize a novel biocompatible pH-responsive oleic acid-based dendritic lipid amphiphile (OLA-SPDA) which self-assembled into stable micelles (OLA-SPDA -micelles) with a relatively low critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 5.6 × 10 M. The formulated micelles had particle size, polydispersity index (PDI) and zeta potential (ZP) of 84.

Novel two-chain fatty acid-based lipids for development of vancomycin pH-responsive liposomes against and methicillin-resistant (MRSA).

The development of bacterial resistance against antibiotics is attributed to poor localisation of lethal antibiotic dose at the infection site. This study reports on the synthesis and use of novel two-chain fatty acid-based lipids (FAL) containing amino acid head groups in the formulation of pH-responsive liposomes for the targeted delivery of vancomycin (VAN). The formulated liposomes were characterised for their size, polydispersity index (PDI), surface charge and morphology.
