Abstract

A mixed polymeric micelle formulation of paclitaxel (PTX) has been developed with the purpose of improving the solubility and prolonging the time of blood circulation of PTX in comparison to current Taxol injection. The mixed micelles were prepared by thin-film method using a nonionic surfactant Pluronic P105, L101 and PTX. The mean size of PTX-loaded mixed micelles was 185 nm with narrow size distribution shown by a dynamic light scattering sizer and a transmission electron microscopy. The in vitro release profiles indicated that PTX release from the mixed micelles exhibited a sustained release behavior. A similar phenomenon was also observed in a pharmacokinetic assessment in rats, in which t(1/2beta) and AUC of the mixed micelle formulation were 5.5 and 4.9-fold higher than that of Taxol injection. The biodistribution study in mice showed that the PTX-loaded mixed micelles not only decreased drug uptake by liver, but also prolonged drug retention in blood, and increased distribution of the drug in lung, spleen and kidney. These results suggested that the mixed polymeric micelles may efficiently load, protect and retain PTX in both in vitro and in vivo environments, and could be a useful drug carrier for intravenous administration of PTX.

  • When PTX-loaded pluronic P105 micelles were compared with mixed micelles composed of a similar copolymer with just the addition of hydrophobic lamella, a strong decrease in clearance was observed.

    “For example, when PTX-loaded pluronic P105 micelles were compared with mixed micelles composed of a similar copolymer with just the addition of hydrophobic lamella, a strong decrease in clearance was observed [95].”

    From Recent Advances in Nanomicelles Delivery Systems. (2020) · cites this paper as [95]

    The Discussion (page not available) says that adding hydrophobic L101 to P105 micelles did not significantly change their in vivo behavior. Table 2 reports a strong clearance decrease for the mixed micelles relative to Taxol injection, not relative to P105 micelles as the citing sentence claims. (LLM, conf=0.89)

    Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
