3,4-Diaminopyridine has shown promise in reversing botulinum intoxication, but poor pharmacokinetics and a narrow therapeutic window limit its clinical utility. Thus, we developed a pH-dependent oral delivery platform using club moss spore exines. These exine microcapsules slowed 3,4-diaminopyridine absorption, limited its seizure activity, and enabled delivery of doses which prolonged mouse survival after botulism neurotoxin A intoxication.
3,4-二氨基吡啶已显示出在逆转肉毒杆菌中毒方面的前景,但较差的药代动力学和狭窄的治疗窗限制了其临床应用。因此,我们利用石松孢子外壁开发了一种pH依赖性口服给药平台。这些外壁微胶囊减缓了3,4-二氨基吡啶的吸收,限制了其惊厥活性,并能够递送延长肉毒杆菌神经毒素A中毒小鼠存活时间的剂量。
