Abstract
Mesoporous silica particles (MSPs) enhance the release kinetics of poorly soluble compound probucol (PB) under the influence of a pore-blocking protein corona, prepared with lysozyme protein adsorption. In vivo oral administration experiments show a prolongation in the time to reach maximum systemic concentration and half-life of PB released from the lysozyme-MSP complex in comparison to the MSP alone. Specific hard protein corona complexes can act as functional diffusion barriers for the controlled release of drugs from MSP based formulations.
