Abstract

See full text

Methods and compositions for producing a cellular drug release are disclosed. The method comprises: a) providing a composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmacological agent adsorbed onto mesoporous hydroxyapatite (HAP) with hydrophobic surfaces; b) exposing the composition to a cell; c) causing entry of the mesoporous HAP into the cell and degradation of the HAP in the lysosomes of the cell and desorption of the agent from the mesoporous HAP; d) causing release of the desorbed agent from the lysosomes into the cytoplasm of the cell; and e) causing release of the desorbed agent to outside the cell. The composition comprises a) mesoporous HAP with hydrophobic surfaces; and b) a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmacological agent, adsorbed onto the hydrophobic surfaces of the mesoporous. HAP. The composition is characterized in that it constantly releases the agent in vivo for a period of at least 4 weeks.
