R. S. H. Mansour et al.
Kazunori etal. 1993; Otsuka etal. 2003). These micellar systems can increase the solubilization of hydrophobic drugs (Otsuka etal. 2003).
5.6.3 Added Advantages ofDrug Solubility Enhancement by
Nanocarriers PEGylation
An added advantage of dendrimer PEGylation in solubility enhancement is the improved drug loading. The encapsulation of the drug in the dendrimers will increase since the PEG chains will aid in loading additional drug molecules within PEG chains. For example, the enhanced encapsulation of 5-uorouracil using PEGylated PAMAM dendrimers was reported (Bhadra etal. 2003).
5.6.4 Factors Affecting Drug Solubilization Propensity
ofPEGylated Dendritic Nanocarriers
5.6.4.1 PEG Chain Length/Molecular Weight
In general, longer PEG chains, i.e., chains with higher molecular weight, are expected to exert a better solubility enhancement effect. Attachment of shorter PEG arms provides little improvement of drug solubility in comparison to the parent dendrimers.
In generation three PEGyated PAMAM dendrimers, the PEG arm length was found to signicantly affect pyrene water solubility (Fig.5.14). The short PEG arms (PEG 750) did not substantially change solubility compared to the parent dendrimers. It was hypothesized that these short chains produce a relatively open cavity due to weak interaction. Increasing the PEG arm length to 2000 Da led to a noticeable increase in pyrene solubility. This effect was attributed to forming a network of a thick

PEG layer at the surface of the dendrimer, within which pyrene can bind. These longer PEG chains gave each unimolecular micelle an isolated space to encapsulate the drug. However, PEG 5000 showed a lower capability for solubility enhancement compared to that of PEG 2000, and this could be a result of the higher tendency of the formed unimolecular micelles to aggregate, thus shielding some of the potential sites avail­able for drug binding because of PEG chains entanglement (Yang etal. 2004).
Partially PEGylated generation four PAMAM dendrimers were used to enhance the water solubility of silybin. The longer PEG chain (PEG 2000) resulted in a higher increase in silybin solubility compared to the shorter chain (PEG 550) (Diaz etal. 2018). Similarly, PAMAM dendrimers PEGylated with PEG 2000 were found to encapsulate higher number of molecules of adriamycin and methotrexate com­pared to those PEGylated with PEG 550. This effect was justied by the inability of the shorter PEG chain to cover and stabilize the drug in addition to the ability of the longer chains to modify the conformation of the dendrimer chain, making the inner space of the dendrimer larger (Kojima etal. 2000).
5.6.4.2 Extent/Density/Substitution Percentage ofPEGylation
Increasing the PEGylation extent is supposed to provide better drug solubility enhancement. Nevertheless, the number of PEG chains attached to the surface of the dendrimer should be carefully controlled in order to preserve the exibility of the nanosystem, which is an essential characteristic of using dendrimers in drug deliv­ery. Moreover, crowded PEG arms may result in steric hindrance that reduces fur­ther coupling with other small molecules of interest to the dendrimer surface. To illustrate the effect of PEGylation extent, diamino butane-64-poly(propylene imine) dendrimers were PEGylated at two different levels. The densely PEGylated den­drimers showed a better ability to solubilize pyrene, betamethasone valerate, and betamethasone dipropionate (Sideratou etal. 2001). Paclitaxel solubility was also increased with increasing the generation of polyglycerol dendrimers, generations 3, 4, and 5 (Ooya etal. 2003).

5.6.4.3 Generation andConcentration oftheDendrimer
Similar to non-PEGylated dendrimers, the ability of the PEGylated derivatives to enhance hydrophobic drug solubility increases with increasing dendrimer genera­tion and concentration.
As shown in Fig. 5.10, PEGylated 4,4-bis(4-hydroxy phenyl) pentanol den­drimers of generation three were found superior to generation two in solubilizing pyrene. The latter was also better at solubilizing pyrene than generation one. Similarly, the effect of increasing the corresponding dendrimer concentration on the enhanced drug solubility is evident (Liu etal. 2000). PEGylated lysine dendrimers of generation 5 solubilized 0.411±0.11g of artemether/g of dendrimers compared to 0.35±0.08g/g of generation 4 dendrimers (Bhadra etal. 2005). The solubility of pyrene increases with increasing concentration of generation 3 PEGyated PAMAM dendrimers, as shown in Fig.5.14 (Yang etal. 2004).
It is worth mentioning that even though higher generations of the dendrimers are associated with higher drug solubilization of higher generation as they have a higher tendency to entrap more hydrophobic drug molecules, PEGylation of the lower genera­tion dendrimers may cause an enhanced drug solubility compared to the parent den­drimers. PEGylation will induce stretching out of the surface sites of the dendrimers as a result of the PEG arms. Consequently, the dendritic inner space will expand to the maximum in the aqueous phase providing a space for drug binding (Yang etal. 2004).
5.7 Conclusion andFuture Perspective
The wide range of promising potential pharmaceutical and biomedical applications of PEGylated nanocarriers provides many advantageous criteria. The advantageous enhanced solubility of these systems and the drugs they carry necessitate further efforts to specically approach solubility issues of different types of nanocarriers. Pharmaceutical solubilization of nanocarriers by PEGylation compromises a rich area of research. Within the same context, protein PEGylation as a means to solubi­lize enzymes and proteins for facilitated nanoparticle production has also emerged.
This chapter discussed the amount of knowledge available in the literature per­taining to different aspects of solubility and solubility-related issues of PEGylated nanocarriers. In most of the illustrated research, general approaches were employed with no focus on detailed aspects. Specic focus on the factors affecting the solubi­lization, in addition to the relation between the PEGylated nanocarriers’ solubility and the other advantages offered by them, is worthy of investigation.
