Water solubility of prothionamide and its solid dispersions with polyethylene glycol-1500, polyvinylpyrrolidone-10000, and β-cyclodextrin was studied. The most promising results were obtained with the solid dispersion with polyvinylpyrrolidone, which provided a 2.6-fold general increase of drug’s solubility and about a 6-fold dissolution rate increase, the maximal values among the studied drug forms. The results of complex physicochemical studies suggested that the improved drug release was due to micronization and solubilizing action of the polymer. A principal factor was the destruction of the crystal lattice and formation of amorphous particles in the solid dispersion. The obtained data can be useful for the development of modified pharmaceutical forms of prothionamide with improved drug release profile.

Various agents, including drugs as well as nonmolecular stimuli, induce alterations in the physicochemical properties of proteins in cell lysates, living cells, and organisms. These alterations can be probed by applying a stability- and solubility-modifying factor, such as elevated temperature, to a varying degree. As a second dimension of variation, drug concentration or agent intensity/concentration can be used. Compared to standard approaches where curves are fitted to protein solubility data acquired at different temperatures and drug concentrations, Proteome Integral Solubility Alteration (PISA) assay increases the analysis throughput by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude for an unlimited number of factor variation points in such a scheme. The consumption of the compound and biological material decreases in PISA by the same factor. We envision widespread use of the PISA approach in chemical biology and drug development.

KGaA, Weinheim Nanoporous glassy polymers are perspective materials for the fabrication of gas separation membranes, especially for the application of gaseous hydrocarbon separation. However, the drawback of such materials is the pronounced physical aging resulting in the dramatic drop of gas transport properties due to relaxation of high-free-volume fraction in time. Herein, a novel and readily available group of such glassy polymers is reported based on 5-alkylnorbornenes. These polymers are easily synthesized from dicyclopentadiene and α-olefins by Diels-Alder reaction and vinyl (addition) polymerization of the formed cycloadducts in the presence of ([(η3-C3H5)PdCl]2/PCy3/Na+[B(3,5-(CF3)2C6H3)4]− catalyst. The obtained polymers display low-fraction free volume, stable gas permeability over time, and possess a unique feature for the glassy polymers—solubility controlled permeation of hydrocarbons and enhanced C4H10/CH4 selectivity.

Technology development for solid dosage forms with a solid dispersion of diclofenac is a crucial problem in pharmaceutical science and practice. The goal of the work was science-based and experimental technology development for tablets containing a solid dispersion of diclofenac with improved biopharmaceutical indicators as an equivalent to the substance. The obtained granulates and tablets had indicators that met the corresponding standards of the Russian SP XIIIth Ed. Almost 100% of the diclofenac was released from the developed tablets. This was 1.3 times greater than from commercial tablets. The recommended shelf life under these conditions is two years. The proposed technology could not only increase the bioavailability of the slightly soluble non-salt form of diclofenac but also facilitate further development of new medicinal preparations with improved bioavailability.

Solid dispersions (SDs) of indomethacin with polyethylene glycol 1500 (PEG-1500) were studied to determine their effect on indomethacin solubility. Production of SDs increased the solubility and dissolution rate of indomethacin in H2O. The solubility and dissolution rate of indomethacin from SDs increased by 1.8 – 2.2 and 3.1 – 4.4 times, respectively. Indomethacin became less crystalline and then amorphous during preparation of the SDs. Dissolution of the SDs solubilized indomethacin and formed colloidal solutions.

© 2017 Elsevier Masson SAS A new water-soluble conjugate, consisting of a chlorin-based photosensitizing part, and a 4-arylaminoquinazoline moiety with high potential affinity to an epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR), suitable for photodynamic therapy (PDT), was synthesized starting from methylpheophorbide-a in seven steps. An increased accumulation of this compound in A431 cells with high level of EGFR expression, in comparison with CHO and HeLa cells with low EGFR expression was observed. The prepared conjugate exhibits dark and photoinduced cytotoxicity at micromolar concentrations with IC50dark/IC50light ratio of 11–18. In tumor-bearing mice, the conjugate preferentially accumulates in the tumor tissue.

It is successfully administered as an anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving medication in rheumatoid and other diseases. According to recent research, indomethacin may become a promising drug enhancing endogenous remyelination in patients with multiple sclerosis. Also, indomethacin affects cell proliferation and invasion, thus it is used to manage pancreatic cancer in patients with hyperglycemia. In addition, indomethacin can inhibit protein synthesis in colorectal carcinoma and other types of cancer cells. The article reviews modern indomethacin medications and the different dosage forms on the Russian pharmaceutical market. Indomethacin poor water solubility is one of the reasons for decreasing its biopharmaceutical characteristics. According to the conducted research, a prospective way to improve indomethacin solubility and bioavailability is the Solid Dispersion (SD) method. SDs are bi- or multicomponent systems consisting of the drug and the carrier. They are a highly dispersed solid phase of the drug or molecular-dispersed solid solutions with a partial formation of a variable composition complex and a carrier. The article provides a brief overview on different aspects of obtaining, investigating, and applying indomethacin SDs with various polymers.
