Nanocells allow the sequential delivery of two different therapeutic agents with different modes of action or different pharmacokinetics. A nanocell is formed by encapsulating a nanocore with a first agent inside a lipid vesicle containing a second agent. The agent in the outer lipid compartment is released first and may exert its effect before the agent in the nanocore is released. The nanocell delivery system may be formulated in pharmaceutical composition for delivery to patients suffering from diseases such as cancer, inflammatory diseases such as asthma, autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, infectious diseases, and neurological diseases such as epilepsy. In treating cancer, a traditional antineoplastic agent is contained in the outer lipid vesicle of the nanocell, and an antiangiogenic agent is loaded into the nanocore. This arrangement allows the antineoplastic agent to be released first and delivered to the tumor before the tumor's blood supply is cut off by the antianiogenic agent.
纳米细胞可以连续输送两种具有不同作用模式或不同药代动力学的不同治疗剂。纳米细胞是通过将含有第一种药剂的纳米芯封装在含有第二种药剂的脂质囊泡内而形成的。外层脂质小室中的药剂首先释放,并可能在纳米芯中的药剂释放之前发挥药效。纳米细胞给药系统可配制成药物组合物,用于向癌症、哮喘等炎症性疾病、类风湿性关节炎等自身免疫性疾病、传染性疾病和癫痫等神经系统疾病患者给药。在治疗癌症时,传统的
抗肿瘤药物包含在纳米细胞的外层脂质囊泡中,而抗血管生成药物则装载在纳米芯中。这种安排可使
抗肿瘤药剂在肿瘤的血液供应被抗血管生成药剂切断之前首先释放并送达肿瘤。
