Abstract

In recent years, researchers have been working extensively on various novel properties of polymers to develop increased efficiency of drug delivery and improve bioavailability of various drug molecules, especially macromolecules. Chitosan, a naturally occurring polysaccharide, because of its protonated/polymeric nature, provides effective and safe absorption of peptide and protein drugs. Its transmucosal absorption is, however, limited to acidic media because of its strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds. A new partially quaternized chitosan derivative, N-trimethyl chitosan chloride (TMC), has been synthesized with improved solubility, safety and effectiveness as an absorption enhancer at neutral pH and in aqueous environment. It enhances the absorption, especially of peptide drugs, by reversible opening of tight junctions in between epithelial cells, thereby facilitating the paracellular diffusion of peptide drugs. This derivative thus opens new perspectives as a biomaterial for various pharmaceutical applications/drug delivery systems. This review deals with the potential use of the quaternized chitosan derivative as a permeation enhancer for the mucosal delivery of macromolecular drugs along with its other biomedical applicati...Continue Reading
