| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are nanometer-sized carbon materials, and are expected to be applicable to drug carriers for selective drug delivery to the diseased part. Our goal is to establish oral drug delivery system that carries drugs selectively to colon by using composites of CNT and drugs for ulcerative colitis. In this study, for the establishment of effective systems, we developed a technique for surface modification of the CNT-drug composites with polymers, and showed the anti-inflammatory effects of the composites by cell experiments.
