摘要:
The present invention provides a sustained-release composition by which a sustained-release effect can be obtained for a long time when injecting microparticles of the composition in an amount that can be subcutaneously or intramuscularly injected to a human with ease and without pain. The composition comprises porous hydroxyapatite microparticles having pores embolized by filling the pores in the microparticles with a biologically active drug, a human serum protein, and a mucopolysaccharide, and adding a divalent metal ion. Alternatively, the composition comprises porous hydroxyapatite microparticles having pores embolized in the outer layer by filling the pores in the microparticles with a biologically active drug, a human serum protein, and a water-soluble calcium salt one after another or at one time, and then adding sodium carbonate, sodium hydrogen carbonate, or an aqueous carbonate ion solution.
摘要:
Sustained release microparticles suitable for various types of drugs, or drug-containing sustained release microparticles capable of sustained release of drugs over a period of three days or more and capable of inhibiting initial burst release; a process for producing the same; and preparations containing the microparticles are disclosed. The drug-containing sustained release microparticles comprise a drug other than human growth hormone and a porous apatite derivative, and optionally include a water-soluble bivalent metal compound. The drug-containing sustained release microparticles can be produced by dispersing under agitation microparticles of a porous apatite derivative in an aqueous solution containing a drug so that the aqueous solution infiltrates into the porous apatite derivative; optionally adding an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble bivalent metal compound that may infiltrate into the porous apatite derivative; further adding additives such as a stabilizer to the mixture; and effecting lyophilization or vacuum drying.

摘要:
A therapeutic agent for interstitial pneumonia is provided which effectively exploits the effect of superoxide dismutase (SOD). The therapeutic composition for interstitial pneumonia contains 10 to 100 mg of lecithinized superoxide dismutase represented by the following general formula (I): SOD′(Q-B)m (I) (wherein SOD′ is a residue of superoxide dismutase; Q is a chemical crosslink; B is a residue of lysolecithin having the hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group at position 2 of its glycerol moiety removed; and m is the average number of lysolecithin molecules bound to one molecule of the superoxide dismutase and is an integer of 1 or greater) and further contains sucrose to give it a stable form suitable for intravenous administration.
摘要:
A nanoparticle containing a low-molecular-weight drug having a negatively charged group is provided that is effectively targeted to an affected site, is capable of sufficiently sustained release of the drug, and has a reduced tendency to accumulate in the liver to cause reduced side effects. The nanoparticle containing a low-molecular-weight drug having a negatively charged group is obtained by hydrophobicizing the low-molecular-weight drug having a negatively charged group with a metal ion, and reacting the hydrophobicized drug with poly L-lactic acid or poly(L-lactic acid/glycolic acid) copolymer and poly DL- or L-lactic acid-polyethylene glycol block copolymer or poly(DL- or L-lactic acid/glycolic acid)-polyethylene glycol block copolymer.
摘要:
With a simple and high-yield production method, a zinc-containing sustained-release composition capable of stabilizing a physiologically active protein or peptide, typically G-CSF by precipitation and retaining drug efficacy for several days in a living body owing to its sustained releasability is provided. Concretely, a zinc-containing sustained-release composition produced by forming a precipitate by mixing a physiologically active protein or peptide, a water-soluble zinc salt, a water-soluble carbonate and/or a water soluble phosphate aqueous solution. The zinc-containing sustained-release composition may be administered as a zinc-containing sustained preparation by adding a pharmaceutically acceptable additive as is necessary.
摘要:
A method for screening for compounds or salts thereof, in particular nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory compounds or salts thereof, that are safe for gastric mucosa and cause little gastrointestinal side effects. The method uses a particular liposome to serve as a cell membrane model. The liposome encapsulates a fluorescent dye, in particular, calcein and is formed of phospholipids, such as phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidylinositol. A test compound is allowed to react with the liposome and the leakage of the fluorescent dye from the liposome is evaluated. As a result, compounds safe for gastric mucosa, in particular, anti-inflammatory compounds can be screened.

摘要:
Drug-containing nanoparticles are provided that enable effective targeting and sustained-release of a water-soluble, non-peptide, low-molecular weight drug and cause reduced accumulation of the drug in the liver. The nanoparticles containing a water-soluble, non-peptide, low-molecular weight drug are obtained by hydrophobicizing the water-soluble, non-peptide, low-molecular weight drug by a metal ion, and reacting the hydrophobicized drug with a poly(lactic acid)-polyethylene glycol block copolymer or a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)-polyethylene glycol block copolymer. The nanoparticles have favorable targeting and sustained-release properties and cause reduced accumulation of the drug in the liver.
