Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a sustained-release anti-HIV peptide formulation, consisting of an injectable material capable of in situ self-gelation followed by spontaneous degradation, employing recombinant elastin like polypeptides. The hydrogel systems showed different anti-HIV peptide release patterns, and hydrophobic character of hydrogel is critical for high resistance to fracture and proteolytic degradation of the hydrogel. Thus, the hydrogel system may hold the promise of tailor-made long-lasting depot systems for a variety of peptide drugs.
