摘要
Cyclosporin A (CyA) loaded poly(lactic acid)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PLA-PEG) micro- and nanoparticles have been developed using an emulsion-solvent evaporation method. Physico-chemical properties, peptide loading content and in vitro release profiles of these novel CyA carriers were compared with those corresponding to conventional PLA micro- and nanoparticles. Results obtained confirm the previously described disposition of PEG chains on the surface of the PLA-PEG formulations. In addition, they revealed the presence of CyA molecules on the surface of both PLA and PLA-PEG systems. Further determination of the surface chemical composition by electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESGA) allowed us to quantify the amount of CyA in the nanospheres' top layers, this amount being higher for nanoparticles than for microparticles, and higher for the PLA systems than for those based on PLA-PEG. In vitro release experiments revealed that PLA-PEG particles provided a more adequate control of CyA release than conventional PLA micro- and nanoparticles. Physico-chemical characterization of the systems during the release studies showed that the developed PLA and PLA-PEG micro- and nanoparticles were not degraded, which suggest a diffusion-mediated release mechanism. Furthermore, we have hypothesized that the hydrophilic outer shell of PEG provides a stationary layer for the diffusion of CyA. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
