Introduction: Many studies have been intensively conducted in the field of pharmaceutical engineering to improve the drug efficiency by developing effective drug delivery systems. In recent years, it has been reported that the concentration of amoxicillin in blood and stomach after administration is not stable thereby decreasing its therapeutic efficacy. In the current, we aimed to develop a red blood cell-based drug delivery system to maintain the amoxicillin serum concentration. Method: Erythrocyte swelling technology was used to prepare amoxicillin-loaded red blood cells. After that, the shape, drug content, entrapment efficiency, hemolysis, drug release rate and antibacterial effect were thoroughly investigated. Results: Developed drug delivery system was round in shape. The drug content and entrapment efficiency were 33% and 62%, respectively. The drug release rate was evaluated around 2.03%. Furthermore, the amoxicillin-loaded red blood cells were an effective agent against E.coli while it wasn’t effective against S.aureus. Conclusion The results indicated that the red blood cell-based technology could stabilize the amoxicillin serum concentration.

Introduction: Many effective anticancer drugs are limited to use for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) therapy due to drug resistance mechanisms in liver cells. In recent years, tumor-targeted drug delivery and inhibition of drug resistance-related mechanisms become an integrated strategy to combat effectively chemoresistant cancer. Aim: Herein, lactobionic acid-conjugated D-α-Tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS-LA conjugate) was developed as a potential asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASG PR (-targeted nanocarrier and an efficient inhibitor of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) to enhance etoposide (ETO) efficacy against HCC. Methods: Main properties of ETO-loaded TPGS-LA nanoparticles (NPs) were tested through in vitro and in vivo studies after prepared using nanoprecipitation method and characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS). Results: According to the results, smaller sized (~141.43 nm) and positively charged ETO-loaded TPGS-LA NPs were more suitable to provide an efficient delivery to hepatoma cells by avoiding clearance mechanisms. It was found that ETO-loaded TPGS-LA NPs could enhance noticeably cytotoxicity of ETO in HepG2 cells. Besides, markedly higher internalization by ASGPR overexpressed HepG2 cells and efficient accumulation at tumor site in vivo were revealed in TPGS-LA NPs group. More importantly, animal studies confirmed that ETO-loaded TPGS-LA NPs achieved the highest therapeutic efficacy against HCC. Interestingly, ETO-loaded TPGS-LA NPs also exhibited a great inhibitory effect on P-gp compared to ETO-loaded TPGS NPs. Conclusion These results suggest that TPGSLA NPs could be used as a potential delivery system of ETO against HCC.
