- Mixtures of oppositely charged surfactants, so called catanionic mixtures, are a growing area of research. These mixtures have been shown to form several different types of surfactant aggregates, such as micelles of various forms and sizes, and lamellar structures, such as vesicles. In this review, a short introduction to the field of catanionic mixtures is presented and the pharmaceutical possibilities offered by such mixtures are reviewed. There are several interesting ideas on how to apply catanionic mixtures to improve the delivery of, for example, drug compounds and DNA, or for HIV treatment.

- Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate skin permeation rates of a drug substance when applied in novel gel formulations with catanionic aggregates. Methods: Reference gel without catanionic aggregates was compared with formulations with catanionic aggregates composed of tetracaine and either sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) or capric acid. Carbomer and SoftCAT were used to compare the effect of different gel types to elucidate if physically cross-linked, 'self-destructing' systems had benefits compared with classical, covalently cross-linked, gels. Key findings: The rheological investigation showed that the interactions between the SoftCAT polymer and tetracaine/SDS aggregates were stronger than when the tetracaine/capric acid aggregates were used. The skin permeation was measured ex vivo in horizontal Ussing chambers and the permeation of tetracaine was significantly lower when formulations with tetracaine/SDS aggregates were applied (P < 0.001), but not statistically different from the reference when capric acid was used. Conclusions: No morphological differences could be distinguished between the skin samples exposed to the different formulations or the reference. Skin permeation was compared with silicone sheet permeation and the results indicated that silicone sheets could be used as a model of skin when using these formulations.

- We have evaluated the interactions between superdisintegrants and drugs with different physicochemical characteristics, which may affect the in-vivo absorption e.g. after mucosal administration. The binding of sodium salicylate, naproxen, methyl hydroxybenzoate (methylparaben), ethyl hydroxybenzoate (ethylparaben), propyl hydroxybenzoate (propylparaben), atenolol, alprenolol, diphenhydramine, verapamil, amitriptyline and cetylpyridinium chloride monohydrate (CPC) to different superdisintegrants (sodium starch glycolate (SSG), croscarmellose sodium (CCS) and crospovidone) and one unsubstituted comparator (starch) was studied spectrophotometrically. An indication of the in-vivo effect was obtained by measuring the interactions at physiological salt concentrations. SSG was investigated more thoroughly to obtain release profiles and correlation between binding and ionic strength. The results showed that the main interactions with the anionic hydrogels formed by SSG and CCS were caused by ion exchange, whereas the neutral crospovidone exhibited lipophilic interactions with the non-ionic substances. The effect of increased ionic strength was most pronounced at low salt concentrations and the ion exchange interactions were almost completely eradicated at physiological conditions. The release profile of diphenhydramine was significantly affected by the addition of salt. It was thus concluded that the choice of buffer was of great importance for in-vitro experiments with ionic drugs. At physiological salt concentrations the interactions did not appear to be strong enough to influence the in-vivo bioavailability of any of the drug molecules.

- ObjectivesIn liver cancer treatment, lipiodol is used as a pharmaceutical excipient to improve delivery of the cytostatic drug doxorubicin (DOX). As DOX and its metabolite doxorubicinol (DOXol) cause serious off-target adverse effects, we investigated the effects of drug-free lipiodol or ciclosporin (CsA) on the tissue distribution (K-p) of DOX and DOXol in relevant pig tissues. MethodsFour treatment groups (TI-TIV) all received an intravenous DOX solution at 0 and 200 min. Before the second dose, the pigs received a portal vein infusion of saline (TI), lipiodol (TII), CsA (TIII) or lipiodol and CsA (TIV). After 6 h, the pigs were euthanised, and liver, kidney, heart and intestine samples were collected and analysed. Key findingsThe tissue DOX concentrations were highest in the kidney (TI-TIV). All the investigated tissues showed extensive DOX K-p. Lipiodol had no effect on the K-p of DOX to any of the tissues. However, the tissue concentrations of DOX were increased by CsA (in liver, kidney and intestine, P < 0.05). ConclusionLipiodol injected into the portal vein does not affect the tissue distribution of DOX and DOXol.
