lüll Silk-based delivery systems of bioactive molecules Numata K; Kaplan DLAdv Drug Deliv Rev 2010[Dec]; 62 (15): 1497-508Silks are biodegradable, biocompatible, self-assembling proteins that can also be tailored via genetic engineering to contain specific chemical features, offering utility for drug and gene delivery. Silkworm silk has been used in biomedical sutures for decades and has recently achieved Food and Drug Administration approval for expanded biomaterials device utility. With the diversity and control of size, structure and chemistry, modified or recombinant silk proteins can be designed and utilized in various biomedical application, such as for the delivery of bioactive molecules. This review focuses on the biosynthesis and applications of silk-based multi-block copolymer systems and related silk protein drug delivery systems. The utility of these systems for the delivery of small molecule drugs, proteins and genes is reviewed.|Biocompatible Materials/administration & dosage/chemistry[MESH]|Biopolymers/*administration & dosage/*chemistry[MESH]|Drug Delivery Systems/*methods[MESH]|Fibroins/*administration & dosage/*chemistry[MESH]|Fibronectins/*administration & dosage/*chemistry[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Recombinant Fusion Proteins/*administration & dosage/*chemistry[MESH]|Recombinant Proteins/administration & dosage/chemistry[MESH]|Silk/*chemistry[MESH] |
