PEG-PLGA from PolySciTech used in development of Rebamipide-loaded nanoparticles for joint arthritis treatment
Osteoarthritis is a progressive disease in which the immune system attacks the joint tissue often leading to complete failure of the joint. Recently, researchers at Korea University and Chung-Ang University (Korea) utilized mPEG-PLGA (AK037) from PolySciTech to create nanoparticles loaded with Rebamipide and used these to investigate the treatment of arthritis in a rat model. This research holds promise for improved arthritis therapy. Read more: Kim, Sung Eun, Sung Jae Choi, Kyeongsoon Park, Hak-Jun Kim, Gwan Gyu Song, and Jae Hyun Jung.
