This study was tasked with the design of mucoadhesive buccal films (MBFs) containing a peptide drug, leuprolide (LEU), or its diverse nanoparticles (NPs), for enhanced membrane permeability via self-assembled nanonization and deformable beh…
Leuprolide is a synthetic nonapeptide drug (pyroGlu-His-Trp-Ser-Tyr-d-Leu-Leu-Arg-Pro-NHEt) that acts as a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist. The continuous administration of therapeutic doses of leuprolide inhibits gonadotropin secret…
PurposeTo conjugate different degree of saturation of C18 fatty acids (stearic acid, oleic acid, and linoleic acid) with the hydroxyl groups of leuprolide acetate (LEU acetate) and to investigate the controlled release and enhanced permeabi…
