Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are cyclic polysaccharides characterized by their unique hollow structure, making them highly effective carriers for pharmaceutical agents. CD-based delivery systems are extensively utilized to enhance drug stability, increase solubility, improve oral bioavailability, and facilitate controlled release and targeted delivery. This review initially provides a concise overview of nano drug delivery systems, followed by a detailed introduction of the structural features and benefits of CDs. It further summarizes the applications of CD-based delivery systems and offers insights for the rational design of drug delivery systems. In this review, CD-based delivery systems are categorized into several types, such as covalently modified CD derivatives, non-modified CD inclusion complexes, poly-cyclodextrins and others. The application of CD-based systems for the delivery of genetic therapeutic agents and co-delivery of gene and drug is also presented. Finally, this review discusses potential challenges and opportunities that may arise in the future. With the development of nanotechnology and optimization of preparation process, CD-based drug delivery systems will provide a more effective, precise and safe approach to drug therapy.
期刊介绍:
Carbohydrate Polymers stands as a prominent journal in the glycoscience field, dedicated to exploring and harnessing the potential of polysaccharides with applications spanning bioenergy, bioplastics, biomaterials, biorefining, chemistry, drug delivery, food, health, nanotechnology, packaging, paper, pharmaceuticals, medicine, oil recovery, textiles, tissue engineering, wood, and various aspects of glycoscience.
The journal emphasizes the central role of well-characterized carbohydrate polymers, highlighting their significance as the primary focus rather than a peripheral topic. Each paper must prominently feature at least one named carbohydrate polymer, evident in both citation and title, with a commitment to innovative research that advances scientific knowledge.
