Drug Carrier Systems

Integrins are a family of cell surface receptors crucial to fundamental cellular functions such as adhesion, signaling, and viability, deeply involved in a variety of diseases, including the initiation and progression of cancer, of coronary, inflammatory, or autoimmune diseases. The natural ligands of integrins are glycoproteins expressed on the cell surface or proteins of the extracellular matrix. For this reason, short peptides or peptidomimetic sequences that reproduce the integrin-binding motives have attracted much attention as potential drugs. When challenged in clinical trials, these peptides/peptidomimetics let to contrasting and disappointing results. In the search for alternative utilizations, the integrin peptide ligands have been conjugated onto nanoparticles, materials, or drugs and drug carrier systems, for specific recognition or delivery of drugs to cells overexpressing the targeted integrins. Recent research in peptidic integrin ligands is exploring new opportunities, in particular for the design of nanostructured, micro-fabricated, cell-responsive, stimuli-responsive, smart materials.

Drug Carrier Systems

Sorption processes (adsorption, absorption, permeation) are of considerable importance in the physico-chemical and biological performance of polymeric biomaterials, especially in cardiovascular applications, and in various controlled drug release and drug carrier systems [1,2]. Transport of molecules of widely ranging molecular weights through synthetic as well as biologic membranes represents a basic process in the performance of many medical devices.
