摘要
来氟米特(LEF)是一种著名的改善病情抗风湿药(DMARDs),于 1998 年获准用于类风湿关节炎(RA)的治疗。它在体内通过酶促作用转化为活性代谢物特立氟胺(TER)。LEF 和 TER 对多种疾病具有药理作用,包括多发性硬化症、癌症、病毒感染和脑神经行为障碍。尽管具有上述药理作用,但在纳米医学应用中对这些作用的探索主要集中在 RA 和癌症治疗方面。本综述总结了 LEF 的主要药理作用和药代动力学效应,并重点介绍了 LEF 及其代谢物在不同疾病中的纳米封装应用。
Leflunomide nanocarriers: a new prospect of therapeutic applications.
Leflunomide (LEF) is a well-known disease-modifying anti-rheumatic agent (DMARDs) that was approved in 1998 for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management. It is enzymatically converted into active metabolite teriflunomide (TER) inside the body. LEF and TER possess several pharmacological effects in a variety of diseases including multiple sclerosis, cancer, viral infections and neurobehavioral brain disorders. Despite the aforementioned pharmacological effects exploring these effects in nanomedicine applications has been focused mainly on RA and cancer treatment. This review summarises the main pharmacological, and pharmacokinetic effects of LEF along with highlighting the applications of nanoencapsulation of LEF and its metabolite in different diseases.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Microencapsulation is a well-established, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the publication of original research findings related to the preparation, properties and uses of individually encapsulated novel small particles, as well as significant improvements to tried-and-tested techniques relevant to micro and nano particles and their use in a wide variety of industrial, engineering, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and research applications. Its scope extends beyond conventional microcapsules to all other small particulate systems such as self assembling structures that involve preparative manipulation.
The journal covers:
Chemistry of encapsulation materials
Physics of release through the capsule wall and/or desorption from carrier
Techniques of preparation, content and storage
Many uses to which microcapsules are put.
