Immunoprotective character of polymer cytotoxic drugs
Šírová, Milada ; Říhová, Blanka (advisor) ; Turánek, Jaroslav (referee) ; Rabišková, Miloslava (referee)
18 I. INTRODUCTION Cancer is a serious health problem worldwide. In economically developed countries, it is a second most frequent cause of death after cardiovascular dis- eases, and the number of oncological patients continuously increases with the increasing age of population. The mainstay of cancer therapy is combination of surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Whilst surgery and radiation are relatively precise and suitable to achieve a local control over the tumor, chemotherapy exerts a systemic ef- fect. These three modalities, when properly combined and sequenced, can cure a substantial number of hematological cancers and a smaller, but still significant subset of various solid tumors. Most cytostatic/cytotoxic drugs that are now in common use target the cells with high proliferation rate. The non-selective character of chemotherapy leads to increased toxicities towards normal rapidly proliferating cells. This means that the drugs have to be used at suboptimal doses, leading to development of (multi)drug resistance, metastatic disease and, eventually, to failure of the therapy. Innovative therapeutic strategies need to be developed in order to achieve better treatment outcome. For that purpose, several approaches are be- ing applied. First, sophisticated genomic and proteomic research could identify...

Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradci Králové Department of: Pharmaceutical technology Consultant: Doc. PharmDr. Zdeňka Šklubalová, Ph.D. Ing. Jana Růžičková, Ph.D. Student: Václava Lebedová Title of Thesis: Study of water-absorption of nanofibres made from hyaluronate derivatives Micro and nanofibers have suitable properties to be used as dressing in healing of injuries. In this experimental work, I studied the properties of nanofibres made from new synthesized hyaluronate derivates (HA). The nanofibres were manufactured by electrospinning method using model version of 4SPIN. To modify properties of the aqueous solutions of HA, polyethylene oxide 400 000 was used. The resulting solutions had an appropriate surface tension, conductivity, and viscosity required to prepare nanofibres. The samples of nanofibres were crosslinked by UV radiation for 10 minutes (HA10) and/or 60 minutes (HA60). To study the influence of crosslinking on the sorption capacity of nanofibres, the free swell absorbency method was used in which samples were immersed in a bath containing water and/or a 0,9% aqueous solution of sodium chloride, respectively, for 5 minutes (liquor/fibre ratio of 75:1). The nanofibers crosslinked for 60 minutes had significantly larger absorbency of both liquid media than...

Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department Pharmaceutical technology Candidate Mgr. Petra Svačinová Supervisor Prof. PharmDr. Miloslava Rabišková, CSc. Title of Doctoral Thesis Influence of lubricants on viscoelastic parameters of compaction process This thesis deals with an evaluation of lubricant's influence on viscoelastic parameters of compaction process. The force-displacement record and stress relaxation test were used for this evaluation. This study evaluates the viscoelastic parameters on three fillers intended for direct compression, i.e. microcrystalline cellulose Avicel PH-200, lactose Lactochem Fine Crystals and calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate Emcompress. Magnesium stearate and modified colloidal silica Syloid were used as lubricants at concentrations of 0.5 % and 1 %. Particle size and shape and specific surface area were determined for all used excipients. Flow properties were studied for individual fillers and also for their mixtures with lubricants. Subsequently, tablets were compressed from fillers and mixtures using force-displacement record and stress relaxation test, and viscoelastic parameters were evaluated. The applied compression forces for both methods were 5 kN, 10 kN and 15 kN. The hardness of tablets was measured. The results show...

Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Department of pharmaceutical technology Candidate Mgr. Pavel Ondrejček Supervisor prof. PharmDr. Miloslava Rabišková, CSc. Title of Doctoral Thesis Evaluation of the influence of filler sort and lubricant type and concentration on the parameters of the compaction equation This thesis is dealing with an evaluation of the compaction process of pharmaceutical excipients and their mixtures. The effect of the filler type, lubricant type and its concentration on the parameters of the compaction equation developed by Assoc. Prof. RNDr. Milan Řehula, CSc. is studied. Microcrystalline cellulose Avicel PH-200, lactose Lactochem Fine Crystals and calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate Emcompress were used as model fillers. These fillers of similar particle size were selected because of different bonding mechanism and varying course of the compaction process. Fillers were evaluated individually and then in their blends with lubricants magnesium stearate, sodium stearylfumarate and Syloid, i.e. modified colloidal silica in concentration 0,5 and 1 %. Moisture content and flow properties were determined in individual fillers. Particle size distribution, scanning electron microscope pictures and specific surface area measurements were...

Rysl, Tomáš ; Řehula, Milan (advisor) ; Špaček, Vladimír (referee) ; Rabišková, Miloslava (referee)
Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department: Department of galenic pharmacy Candidate: Mgr. Tomáš Rysl Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Milan Řehula CSc. Title of Doctoral Thesis: Characterization of compaction process according to new equation parameteres of compaction. The thessis deals with comparation of excipients used for production of tablets using new equations of tablet compaction. A lot of mathematical interpretations exist for determination of excipient behaviour during compaction process of tablet production. Obtained parameters of them express more or less possible behaviour of these excipients during compaction. The new mathematical interpretation was proposed for crystallic and polymeric materials. It seems to be very exact method to express compation process very correctly. 40 materials was evaluated according to this new proposed equation of compaction. Zwick/Roell Z050 was used to obtain this equation. Different behaviour of polymeric and crystallic materials has been found out. Behaviour of crystallic materials is interpreted by 2 phases, expressed by biexpoinencial equation. Behaviour of polymeric materials is interpreted by 3 phases, expressed by triexponencial equation. According to obtained paramateres, excipients have been described in term of...
