Cyclosporine A is an immunosuppressive drug used in clinics to treat steroid-refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). However, due to its side effects, researchers are evaluating novel drug delivery-based treatment options. Nanoparticles-based cyclosporine (Nano-CSA) offers a promising option for the treatment of UC, and various in vivo studies on animals have been conducted.

Cyclosporin A (CsA) is a drug used to prevent immune rejection in corneal transplantation. Most grafts performed today are endothelial grafts which are complicated with poor penetration of CsA into the endothelium due to its hydrophobicity. To improve CsA penetration into the corneal a new ocular formulation of CsA 2% with Miglyol was developed and is commercially available.

Perfluorohexyloctane ophthalmic solution (Miebo) and water-free cyclosporine ophthalmic solution 0.1% (Vevye) are recently approved treatments for dry eye disease (DED). Perfluorohexyloctane (PFHO) uses a novel approach to treat evaporative DED, whereas water-free cyclosporine (CsA 0.

Purpose: Supersaturated formulations have been widely explored for improving the oral bioavailability of drugs by using mesoporous silica (MS) to generate supersaturation molecular adsorption; however, this is followed by precipitation. Several precipitation inhibitors (PI) have been explored to prevent precipitation and maintain the drug in solution for a longer period. However, the combined approach of MS and PIs, the impact of MS and Silica, and the loading of high-molecular-weight neutral molecules such as Cyclosporine A (CsA) have not yet been explored.

Mitochondrial dysfunction plays an important role in neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Herein, this work designs a mitochondria-targeted micelle CsA-TK-SS-31 (CTS) to block the progression of AD by simultaneously alleviating mitochondrial dysfunction in microglia and neurons. The mitochondria-targeted peptide SS-31 drives cyclosporin A (CsA) to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and delivers CsA to mitochondria of microglia and neurons in the brains of 5 × FAD mice.
