同时预防性传播感染和意外怀孕的多用途预防技术是全球卫生的优先事项。结合化学和物理屏障为设计有效的MPT提供了最大的潜力,但将两种功能模式整合到单个设备中一直具有挑战性。在这里,我们表明,设计用于局部药物递送的药物洗脱纤维网可以作为化学和物理屏障MPT的组合。使用FDA批准的聚合物,我们制造了具有可调纤维尺寸和受控降解动力学的可降解网状物,有助于同时释放多种抗HIV-1,HSV-2和精子的药物。我们观察到,载药网片在体外抑制HIV-1感染,并在物理上阻碍精子穿透。此外,我们报告了一个以前未知的活性甘油单月桂酸酯(GML),以有效地抑制精子活力和活力。用于HIV-1预防和精子抑制的药物洗脱纳米纤维的应用可以作为将药物递送到女性下生殖道的创新平台技术。
Multipurpose prevention technologies (MPTs) that simultaneously prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancy are a global health priority. Combining chemical and physical barriers offers the greatest potential to design effective MPTs, but integrating both functional modalities into a single device has been challenging. Here we show that drug-eluting fiber meshes designed for topical drug delivery can function as a combination chemical and physical barrier MPT. Using FDA-approved polymers, we fabricated nanofiber meshes with tunable fiber size and controlled degradation kinetics that facilitate simultaneous release of multiple agents against HIV-1, HSV-2, and sperm. We observed that drug-loaded meshes inhibited HIV-1 infection in vitro and physically obstructed sperm penetration. Furthermore, we report on a previously unknown activity of glycerol monolaurate (GML) to potently inhibit sperm motility and viability. The application of drug-eluting nanofibers for HIV-1 prevention and sperm inhibition may serve as an innovative platform technology for drug delivery to the lower female reproductive tract.
