2. Targeted drug delivery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Targeted_drug_delivery

   The conventional drug delivery system is the absorption of the drug across a biological membrane, whereas the targeted release system releases the drug in a dosage form. The advantages to the targeted release system is the reduction in the frequency of the dosages taken by the patient, having a more uniform effect of the drug, reduction of drug ...

3. Drug delivery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_delivery

   Interest in targeted drug delivery has grown drastically due to its potential implications in the treatment of cancers and other chronic diseases. [23] [24] [25] In order to achieve efficient targeted delivery, the designed system must avoid the host's defense mechanisms and circulate to its intended site of action. [26]

4. PH-responsive tumor-targeted drug delivery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH-responsive_tumor...

   These drug delivery systems have been created to react to the pH environment of diseased or cancerous tissues, triggering structural and chemical changes within the drug delivery system. [3] This form of targeted drug delivery is to localize drug delivery, prolongs the drug's effect, and protect the drug from being broken down or eliminated by ...

5. Stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimuli-responsive_drug...

   Systems used with pH-responsive polymers include implantable hydrogels and micro- and nanoparticles. pH-responsive drug delivery systems are particularly suitable for the design of chemotherapeutic delivery systems due to the naturally low pH found in tumor microenvironments, but can be applied in other disease settings where the pH of the ...

6. Chemotactic drug-targeting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemotactic_drug-targeting

   Targeted drug delivery is one of many ways researchers seek to improve drug delivery systems' overall efficacy, safety, and delivery. Within this medical field is a special reversal form of drug delivery called chemotactic drug targeting.

7. Ligand-targeted liposome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand-targeted_liposome

   Ligand-targeted liposomes are a promising method of drug delivery. These systems are efficient in delivering the drug to localized areas with low peripheral distribution, which minimizes off-target effects. The favorable biodistribution to target tissue is an encouraging property of this drug delivery system.

8. Ultrasound-triggered drug delivery using stimuli-responsive ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasound-triggered_Drug...

   Ultrasound-triggered drug delivery using stimuli-responsive hydrogels refers to the process of using ultrasound energy for inducing drug release from hydrogels that are sensitive to acoustic stimuli. This method of approach is one of many stimuli-responsive drug delivery-based systems that has gained traction in recent years due to its ...

9. Nanoparticle drug delivery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanoparticle_drug_delivery

   Nanoparticle drug delivery systems are engineered technologies that use nanoparticles for the targeted delivery and controlled release of therapeutic agents. The modern form of a drug delivery system should minimize side-effects and reduce both dosage and dosage frequency. Recently, nanoparticles have aroused attention due to their potential ...
