β-cyclodextrin-based multifunctional carriers for colon-targeted drug delivery: advances in hydrogel systems and mucoadhesive strategies by Mousmee Sharma, Parteek Prasher, Rabab Fatima, Daniela Calina, Javad Sharifi-Rad

“…Abstract Oral drug delivery to the colon remains a formidable challenge due to the harsh conditions of the upper gastrointestinal tract, including variable pH, enzymatic degradation, and limited mucosal permeability. β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD), a cyclic oligosaccharide with a hydrophobic cavity and hydrophilic exterior, offers a promising approach to overcome these barriers by forming stable inclusion complexes that protect sensitive drugs and modulate their release profile. This review explores the use of native and chemically modified β-CDs as functional carriers for colonic drug delivery, with a focus on hydrogel-based systems, mucoadhesive derivatives, and microbiota-responsive formulations. …”
