3Rs Principle and Legislative Decrees to Achieve High Standard of Animal Research

Paolo Verderio et al.

Summary: The 3Rs principle, consisting of Replacement, Reduction and Refinement, aims to promote ethical and scientifically valid animal experimentation. It requires the consideration of alternative models, statistical designs, and improvements in experimental conditions. The principle was first introduced in a document by the Council Directive in 1986 and developed further in the European Parliament and Council Directive in 2010. This article emphasizes the importance of the 3Rs principle, particularly the concept of Reduction, and highlights the need for its consistent implementation among countries and research teams.

Ex Vivo Visualization of Distribution of Intravitreal Injections in the Porcine Vitreous and Hydrogels Simulating the Vitreous

Tobias Auel et al.

Summary: The behavior of intravitreal dosage forms in vivo is usually studied through animal experiments during preclinical development. However, the use of in vitro vitreous substitutes (VS) for preclinical investigations has not been sufficiently explored. This study compared the distribution of a contrast agent in hyaluronic acid agar gels and polyacrylamide gels with that in ex vivo porcine vitreous using magnetic resonance imaging. The results showed that while both gels could not completely represent the porcine vitreous body, the distribution in the polyacrylamide gel was similar. On the other hand, the distribution in the hyaluronic acid agar gel was much faster. Anatomical features such as the lens and interfacial tension could also affect the distribution, making it difficult to reproduce using in vitro VS.

In vitro dissolution testing models of ocular implants for posterior segment drug delivery

Muhammad Faris Adrianto et al.

Summary: Drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye is challenging, with intraocular implants offering long-term therapy but facing challenges in selecting appropriate in vitro dissolution testing models. While in vitro test models can analyze drug release profiles, they may not accurately predict in vivo drug exposure.

The EyeFlowCell: Development of a 3D-Printed Dissolution Test Setup for Intravitreal Dosage Forms

Tobias Auel et al.

Summary: The study developed an in vitro dissolution model called EyeFlowCell (EFC) to test intravitreal dosage forms, showing that drug release from implants in the gel-based EFC may better predict drug release rates compared to compendial release methods.

Investigating Ex Vivo Animal Models to Test the Performance of Intravitreal Liposomal Drug Delivery Systems

Gustav Christensen et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated the feasibility of using fresh porcine eyes as a model for testing intravitreal biodistribution and retention of liposomes, providing insights into important considerations for ocular drug delivery. The results showed that PEG-coated liposomes were rapidly absorbed on the retina, while positively charged and PEG-coated liposomes were retained for at least 24 hours. Toxicity experiments on murine-derived retinal explant cultures indicated increased photoreceptor cell death at higher concentrations of anionic and cationic liposomes.

Role of In Vitro Models for Development of Ophthalmic Delivery Systems

Shallu Kutlehria et al.

Summary: There is a growing need for physiologically accurate in vitro models for ophthalmic drug screening and disease modeling. Various types of in vitro models have been developed, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Technological advancements and integration with tissue engineering have provided novel platforms that better mimic the in vivo microenvironment, showing potential for transforming ophthalmic drug development.
