Transcutaneous vaccination is one of the successful, affordable, and patient-friendly advanced immunization approaches because presence multiple immune-responsive cell types in skin. However, absence a preferable facilitator, skin's outer layer strong impediment to delivering biologically active foreign particles. Lipid-based biocompatible ionic-liquid-mediated nanodrug carriers represent an expedient distinct strategy permit transdermal drug delivery; with acceptable surfactants, performance formulations might be further enhanced. For this purpose, we formulated lipid-based nanovaccine using conventional (cationic/anionic/nonionic) surfactant loaded antigenic protein immunomodulator its core promote delivery by penetrating skin boosting immunogenic activity. In follow-up investigation, freeze-dry emulsification process was used prepare nanovaccine, delivery, pharmacokinetic parameters, ability activate autoimmune cells tumor microenvironment were studied tumor-budding C57BL/6N mouse model. These analyses performed ELISA, nuclei HE staining, flow cytometry, other biological techniques. The immunomodulator-containing significantly (p < 0.001) increased anticancer immune responses (IgG, IgG1, IgG2, CD8+, CD207+, CD103+ expression) without causing cellular or toxicity. Using nanovaccination approach, it possible create more targeted efficient system for cancer antigens, thereby stimulating stronger response compared aqueous formulations. This lead effective therapeutic preventative outcomes patients cancer.

Needle-free jet injectors have been proposed as an alternative to injections with hypodermic needles. Currently, a handful of commercial needle-free already exist. However, these are designed for specific injections, typically limited large injection volumes into the deeper layers beneath skin. There is growing evidence advantages when delivering small superficial skin layers, namely epidermis and dermis. Injections such vaccines insulin would benefit from delivery layers. Furthermore, same technology volume can serve (medical) tattooing well other personalized medicine treatments. The research dedicated actuated by laser energy has increased in last decade.

Abstract Transdermal delivery of drugs offers an interesting alternative for the administration molecules that present certain troubles when delivered by oral route. It can produce systemic effects or perform a local action formulation exerts optimal controlled drug release targeted to specific cell type site. also avoids several inconveniences such as hepatic first pass effect, gastric pH‐induced hydrolysis, malabsorption because diseases surgeries, and unpleasant organoleptic properties. Nanomedicine microneedle array patches (MAPs) are two trendiest systems applied transdermal research nowadays.

Vaccination represents a critical preventive strategy in the current global healthcare system, serving as an indispensable intervention against diverse pathogenic threats. Although conventional immunization relies predominantly on hypodermic needle-based administration, this method carries substantial limitations, including needle-associated fear, bloodborne pathogen transmission risks, occupational injuries among workers, waste management issues, and dependence trained medical personnel. Microneedle technology has emerged innovative vaccine delivery offering convenient, effective, minimally invasive administration. These microscale needle devices facilitate targeted antigen to epidermal dermal tissues, where abundant populations of antigen-presenting cells, specifically Langerhans dendritic provide robust immunological responses. Multiple research groups have extensively investigated microneedle-based vaccination strategies. This transdermal technique offers several advantages, notably circumventing cold-chain requirements enabling self-administration. Numerous preclinical investigations clinical trials demonstrated safety profile, immunogenicity, patient acceptance microneedle-mediated across applications. comprehensive review examines fundamental aspects immunization, principles, transcutaneous strategies, delivery-including classifications, barriers. Furthermore, addresses technical considerations, such treatment efficacy, application methodologies, wear duration, dimensional optimization, manufacturing processes, regulatory frameworks, sustainability followed by analysis future perspective technology.

PubMed searches reveal much literature regarding lipids in barrier function of skin and less on the oral mucosa. In terrestrial mammals, birds, reptiles, skin’s permeability is provided by ceramides, fatty acids, cholesterol outermost layers epidermis, stratum corneum. This layer consists about 10–20 cornified cells embedded a lipid matrix. It effectively prevents loss water electrolytes from underlying tissue, it limits penetration potentially harmful substances environment. cavity, regions gingiva hard palate are covered keratinized epithelia that resemble epidermis. The corneum contains mixture similar to epidermal but lower amounts accordingly more permeable. superficial nonkeratinized also provide barrier. These epithelial do contain cholesterol, free which may underlie function. barriers primarily protect tissue preventing toxic substances, including microbial products. Transdermal drug delivery, buccal absorption, lipid-related disease discussed.

Optimal vaccines are needed for sustained suppression of SARS-CoV-2 and other novel coronaviruses. Here, we developed a recombinant type 5 adenovirus vector encoding the gene S1 subunit antigen (Ad5.SARS-CoV-2-S1) COVID-19 immunization evaluated its immunogenicity in mice. A single with Ad5.SARS-CoV-2-S1 via S.C. injection or I.N delivery induced robust antibody cellular immune responses. Vaccination elicited significant S1-specific IgG, IgG1, IgG2a endpoint titers as early 2 weeks, antibodies were long lasting. I.N. administration produced GC B cells cervical axillary LNs, respectively. Moreover, evoked significantly greater antigen-specific T-cell responses compared to unimmunized control groups indications that was more effective than eliciting Mice vaccinated by either route demonstrated increased virus-specific neutralization on weeks 8 12 groups, well BM forming (AFC), indicative long-term immunity. Thus, this Ad5-vectored vaccine candidate showed promising following mice routes administration, supporting further development Ad-based against infectious diseases sustainable global programs.
