RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To study the percutaneous permeability of methoxypsoralen liposomal gel METHODS:The preparations were applied on the rat skin in vitro and in vivo with common gel and Mingbailing tincture as control,and the drug concentrations in the receiver,skin,blood and other organs were determined by RP-HPLC RESULTS:In vitro experiment,liposomal gel showed the lowest percutaneous permeation rate and the highest retention in skin In vivo studies illuminated that the skin depositions of drug encapsulated in liposome was(4 37?0 91) and (3 36?0 58) times those of the common gel and tincture respectively CONCLUSION:Methoxypsoralen liposomal gel showed an evident targeting effect on skin
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To compare the therapeutic effects of8-methoxypsoralen(8-MOP)liposomal gel with other dosage forms of8-MOP in equal concentration on guinea-pig models of vitiligo.METHODS:The guinea-pigs were divided into normal control,model,8-MOP tincture,8-MOP gel and8-MOP liposome gel groups.The vitiligo model was established by chemical decoloration method in all groups except normal control group,then corresponding preparations were topically ap?plied.The therapeutic effects were compared and the melanogenesis of hair follicles,serum acetylcholinesterases and skin MDA contents were observed in all groups.RESULTS:8-MOP liposomal gel had better therapeutic effects on the animal models,and could improve the dermatic melanogenesis and acetylcholinesterase of the animal model,and also had effect on MDA of skin.The differences between8-MOP liposomal gel group and model group were highly significant(P
