    Raman spectroscopy and imaging technology were applied to investigate percutaneous penetration profiles of drugs in this paper. Raman spectra of the ex vivo skin samples were collected by mapping technique. Then, a semiquantitative analysis model of concentration and signal intensity of an analyte had been established using multiple linear regression. On this basis, the contribution coefficients of concentration were presented in the form of heat maps to achieve the visual analysis of permeability distribution of the analyte in the skin. Percutaneous permeation analysis of salicylic acid in pig skins was conducted using Raman spectroscopy and imaging technology. The concentration contribution coefficients of salicylic acid were 0.231% and 0.275% in the stratum corneum, and 3.1×10–4 and 2.4×10–4 in the active epidermal layer in the parallel experiments. Compared with the results determined by HPLC method, it was found that the change trend of drug concentration by the two methods was consistent, indicating that the concentration contribution coefficient obtained by Raman spectroscopy could be used for semiquantitative analysis, which provided a new technical means for studying the percutaneous absorption characteristics of the analyte and formulation optimization. In addition, the permeation distribution of hyaluronic acid with different relative molecular weights in pig skin was also investigated by this method, and the visual analysis of distribution of macromolecular drugs in skin was also realized.

    Vagina has the advantages of rich blood supply, large surface area and avoidance of liver first-pass effect, which is beneficial for the drug to exert its pharmacological effect. Among vaginal drug delivery systems, semisolid formulations have a certain fluidity and a larger spreading area in the vagina compared with solid formulations, which increases the absorption of drugs by the vaginal mucosa. The temperature-responsive gel for vaginal use can respond to the change of temperature and transform to a semi-solid from a liquid, so it is easy to spread and resist the clearance effect of vaginal fluid. This paper reviews the quality characterization and in vitro evaluation methods of semisolid preparations for vaginal use through literature search, hoping to provide some references for the further development of semi-solid preparations.

    Owing to simple preparation process, high drug loading capacity and strong adhesion, nanocrystals can effectively solve the problems of short-term retention time, slow release rate and low bioavailability of poorly watersoluble drugs. Therefore, it has become a hot research topic in pharmaceutics in recent years. In this paper, the preparation technologies of nanocrystals and their research progress of applications in mucosal drug delivery systems such as nasal, ocular, oral, skin and pulmonary delivery systems are reviewed, hoping to provide a reference basis for the development of nanocrystal-based dosage forms of poorly soluble drugs.

    Posterior segment diseases are the leading causes of visual impairment and blindness, and their treatments are mainly based on invasive approaches with many complications, serious adverse reactions and poor patient compliance. Non-invasive ocular drug delivery systems should be developed to overcome the ocular absorption barriers, increase drug permeability into posterior segment, so as to improve the drug bioavailability in posterior segment. This paper overviews the ocular barriers and novel non-invasive strategies(including the use of penetration enhancers, nanotechnology and iontophoresis) of drug delivery to the posterior eye segment. Moreover, the challenges of translational medicine and candidate drugs under clinical trial are summarized. Finally, the prospects of non-invasive posterior segment delivery are put forward.

    Free vitamin K1(VK1) in VK1-loaded mixed micelles(VK1-MM) injection leads to security risks. The encapsulation efficiency is one of the indexes to evaluate the content of free VK1 in mixed micelles and their drug-loading performance, while the applicability of various determination methods is different. This study compared the applicability of extraction, centrifugation, and filtration methods in evaluating the encapsulation efficiency of VK1-MM. The study of the main factor affecting the accuracy of each method showed that the extractant altered the structure of VK1-MM during extraction. In addition, the free VK1 and VK1-MM could not be completely separated by centrifugation, which was related to the tiny density difference between free VK1 and water. However, filtration could effectively separate free VK1 and VK1- MM with the appropriate pore size and material of the filter membrane. The recovery of filtration was 100.40% (with RSD of 0.80%, n=3), which showed filtration was suitable for determining the encapsulation efficiency of VK1-MM. Simultaneously, the applicability of different encapsulation efficiency determination methods and the characteristics of formulations were analyzed, which provided a reference for establishing a suitable encapsulation efficiency determination method for other micellar preparations.

    Oral administration is the preferred method for drug delivery. However, due to the unique properties of drugs and the gastrointestinal barrier, the bioavailability of oral administration is limited. By referencing the structural characteristics of organisms in nature and adopting a biomimetic perspective, the biomimetic nanocarriers can be designed and prepared to improve the oral absorption of drugs, which hold promising development prospects. This review summarizes the application of nanocarriers designed and prepared with various biomimetic ideas in oral drug delivery,offering insights and references for the development and clinical application of oral nanocarriers.

    Firstly, the formulation and process of curcumin nanoemulsion were optimized by single factor test and Box-Behnken design combined with response surface methodology with encapsulation efficiency as evaluation index, and the physicochemical properties of curcumin nanoemulsion prepared under the optimal conditions were investigated. The results showed that the encapsulation efficiency of curcumin nanoemulsion was (95.69±0.04)%, and the particle size was (109.7±0.5)nm. Transmission electron microscopy showed that curcumin nanoemulsion was homogeneous spherical. Then the optimal curcumin nanoemulsion was added to the composite matrix gel composed of poloxamer 188 and poloxamer 407 to prepare a transdermal thermosensitive hydrogel, and its quality was evaluated and its transdermal performance was studied. The results showed that the hydrogel had good temperature sensitivity, the gelation temperature and time were (34.3±0.3)℃ and (54.2±10.2)s, respectively. The cumulative penetration amount Q24 h of the hydrogel was (9.93±0.70)μg/cm2 and the steady transdermal rate Js was 0.71 μg·cm–2·h–1, which were 2.5 times and 2.6 times of those of the curcumin solution, respectively. Finally, 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene was used to establish a mouse model of chronic eczema, and the efficacy of the title product was investigated with the commercial compound dexamethasone acetate cream as a positive control. The results showed that compared with the model group, the title product could significantly reduce the ear mass difference and swelling degree of mice(P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in efficacy between the positive control(compound dexamethasone acetate cream) group and the product(P>0.05). In addition, the efficacy of this product was significantly different from that of the curcumin solution(P<0.05).

    Drug-device combination products have become a hot spot of innovation with the rapid development of modern science and technology. Drug-device combined products integrate the functions of medicines and medical devices, so they generally have the characteristics of high risk and complex technical performance. The development of drug-device combination products in China is still in its infancy and the regulatory system needs to be gradually improved. The guidances issued by U.S. FDA describe the key role of human factors engineering in the development of drug-device combination products, as well as the importance of human factors engineering to product safety and effectiveness. The relatively mature review thinkings of U.S. FDA might have a positive role in promoting the understanding of human factors engineering and evaluation of some related indicators for drug-device combination products of regulatory authorities in China.

    Baicalein, a flavone derived from Scutellaria baicalensis, exhibits antitumor effect by suppressing tumor cell proliferation, inducing tumor cell apoptosis, inhibiting tumor angiogenesis, and regulating the tumor microenvironment. However, its poor solubility has attenuated the bioavailability and thus restricting the efficacy. Many studies utilize nano-drug delivery systems to improve bioavailability and antitumor efficacy of baicalein. This review summarizes the recent studies concerning the antitumor mechanisms of baicalein and its nano delivery systems to provide approaches for its further basic research and clinical application.
