Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we prepared a self-dissolving microneedle arrays (MN) containing teriparatide (hPTH), a novel drug for the treatment of osteoporosis to improve the transdermal absorption of hPTH. In the release studies, the release of hPTH from MN was very rapid and almost 100% of drug was released from MN within 5 min. In addition, a rapid increase in the plasma concentration of hPTH was observed after the application of hPTH-MN to the skin. Furthermore,hPTH-MN has pharmacological effect for the treatment of osteoporosis in animal model. Finally, it was found that after the application of hPTH-MN to the skin, the transepidermal water loss (TEWL) value slightly increased, but was recovered to the control level, suggesting the safety of hPTH-MN. These findings indicated that the application of hPTH-MN to the skin is a very effective and safe administration method for the treatment of osteoporosis.
