Functionalized PEG-PLA nanoparticles for brain targeted delivery of ketoconazole contribute to pregnane X receptor overexpressing in drug-resistant epilepsy

Jianhong Wang et al.

Summary: A functionalized PEG-PLA nanoparticle system containing ketoconazole (KCZ) was developed for targeted drug delivery to epileptic foci. The system reduced the adverse effects of KCZ and improved the efficacy of carbamazepine (CBZ) on drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) by attenuating the overactivity of pregnane X receptor (PXR).

Polymeric micelles in drug delivery: An insight of the techniques for their characterization and assessment in biorelevant conditions

M. Ghezzi et al.

Summary: Polymeric micelles, innovative aggregation colloids formed by self-assembling of amphiphilic polymers in solution, offer advantages in drug administration but also face challenges such as lower stability and complex characterization. Understanding their interaction with the biological environment is crucial, and a combination of different characterization techniques can provide a deeper insight into their in vivo behavior.
