Dendrimers have successfully proved themselves as useful additives in different routes of drug administration because they can render drugs greater water-solubility, bioavailability, and biocompatibility. This review demonstrated the potential of dendrimers to be applied in these detailed routes wit

The objective of this mini-review is to summarize the findings concerning the physicochemical properties and the pharmaceutical applications of acidic drugs whose performances have been modified by simultaneous complexation with cyclodextrins and salt formation. Particular attention is paid to the a
## Abstract Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is widely used as a water soluble carrier for polymerβdrug conjugates. Herein, we report degradable linear PEG analogs (DPEGs) carrying multifunctional groups. The DPEGs were synthesized by a Michael addition based condensation polymerization of dithiols and
## Abstract The purpose of this study was to develop a membrane for guided tissue regeneration applicable in periodontology that could release antimicrobial agent during the healing period. Our strategy consisted to graft Ξ²βcyclodextrin (Ξ²βCD), a molecule that is known to form inclusion complexes w
## Abstract Purine and pyrimidine nucleoside analogs (NAs) are antimetabolites commonly used in cancer therapy. Administered as prodrugs, NAs permeate the mambrane using specialized transporters. Following phosphorylation, they interfere with multiple cellular pocessess inducing cytotoxicity. Toxic
