To improve their safety and efficacy, it is critical to examine factors that alter local biologic outcome. The central hypothesis of this thesis is that local efficacy and toxicity are in part determined by the duration of drug exposure and local arterial drug concentrations.

Abstract:

Polymer-based drug delivery systems have fantastic potential in chemotherapy as they can reduce drug side effects, help in patient compliance and provide targeting. Nanoprecipitation is used to encapsulate small drug molecules into polymer nanoparticles to form a drug delivery system. A major obstacle in polymer-based drug delivery systems reaching the clinic is their inability to load sufficient drug molecules. Little is known about the processes involved in the encapsulation of drug molecules into these delivery systems. An insight into the processes that govern the formation of these partic

Abstract:

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death throughout the world and the number of cases per year is reported to rise to 23.6 million by 2030. Amongst the different types of treatments available, chemotherapy represent the most common one. Despite its proven capability of tumour shrinkage and prevention from coming back after surgery, several factors limit its potential. These include poor bioavailability and biodistribution of the majority of the chemotherapeutic agents commonly used, the high dose required, their numerous adverse side effects, the development of drug resistance and non-spec

Abstract:

Proton dependent oligopeptide transporters (POTs) play a central role in nitrogen homeostasis by coupling the uptake of dipeptides and tripeptides to the proton electrochemical gradient across the plasma membrane. In human, members of this transporter family, PepT1 and PepT2, are critical modulators of drug pharmacokinetics as they facilitate the uptake and retention of numerous orally administered drugs including the β-lactam antibiotics. Rationally designing drugs to target these transporters is therefore an attractive approach to improving bioavailability. To this end, the binding of peptid

Abstract:

Predicting vapor transport and aerosol dynamics in the respiratory airways is important for analyzing both environmental exposure and respiratory drug delivery. A large number of analytical models, computational studies, and experiments on vapor and aerosol transport in the respiratory tract have been conducted previously. However, a number of critical questions remain unanswered. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is primarily employed with frequent comparisons to existing and new experimental data sets to address previously unanswered issues related to the transport of vapors

Abstract:

The purpose of this novel research was to understand the flow behaviour and improve the efficiency of the Volumatic™ spacer, using a combination of engineering tools such as CFD, Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA) and Row visualization techniques. The lack of information on the Volumatic /A/ spacer meant that, initial understanding had to be gained into the flow behaviour within the spacer. This was initially performed by injecting air carrying a tracer concentration to represent t li<^drug portion of the medicine.

Abstract:

Lateral diffusion of membrane components (lipids and proteins) is an important membrane property to measure since the essential process of absorption of anti-cancer and other drugs -some of which are not soluble in lipids and therefore would not be able to penetrate the cell membrane through passive diffusion- lies on it. In particular, the procedure of diffusion into the cell cytoplasm is reliant on free volumes in the membrane (passive diffusion) as well as carrier proteins (facilitated diffusion). By enhancing the mobility of lipids and/or proteins, the possibility of the carrier protein to

Abstract:

Nanoparticles are often considered as efficient drug delivery vehicles for precisely dispensing the therapeutic payloads specifically to the diseased sites in the patient’s body, thereby minimizing the toxic side effects of the payloads on the healthy tissue. However, the fundamental physics that underlies the nanoparticles’ intrinsic interaction with the surrounding cells is inadequately elucidated. The ability of the nanoparticles to precisely control the release of its payloads externally (on-demand) without depending on the physiological conditions of the target sites has the potential to

Abstract:

The delivery of drugs into solid tumors is not trivial due to obstructions in the tumor microenvironment. Innovative drug delivery vehicles are currently being designed to overcome this challenge. In this research, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were used to evaluate the behavior of several drug delivery vectors in tumor capillaries—specifically motile bacteria, non-motile bacteria, and nanoparticles. Red blood cells, bacteria, and nanoparticles were imposed in the flow using the immersed boundary method. A human capillary model was developed using a novel method of handling de

Abstract:

As we inhale, the air drawn through our nose undergoes successive accelerations and decelerations as it is turned, split, and recombined before splitting again at the end of the trachea as it enters the bronchi. Fully describing the dynamic behaviour of the airflow and how it transports inhaled particles poses a severe challenge to computational simulations. The dynamics of unsteady flow in the human large airways during a rapid and short inhalation (a so-called sniff) is a perfect example of perhaps the most complex and violent human inhalation inflow. Combining the flow solution with a Lagra

We used the model to describe the radial and axial distribution of drug in the tumour cord as a function of changes in the transport rate across the cell membrane, blood vessel and intercellular permeability, flo
