Delivery systems
Methods for manufacturing drug delivery systems are provided. The drug delivery systems may include a substrate coated with at least one polymer and at least one active compound. The substrate may include yarns, yarn precursors, threads, filaments, fibers, and/or other suitable substrates. The methods may include disposing a solution including a monomer and an active compound on the substrate. The methods may also include exposing the solution and the substrate to UV light to initiate polymerization of the solution.

NANOPARTICLES COMPRISING DRUG DIMERS, AND USE THEREOF
The present invention relates to a nanoparticle comprising a drug dimer and a use thereof. The nanoparticle comprising a drug dimer of the present invention can increase the drug content and improve the dispersibility of the drug. In addition, the nanoparticle has increased targeting efficiency. Therefore, an effective pharmacological effect can be obtained by using a drug in a less amount, and thus the nanoparticle has excellent commercial applicability.
Prevention and treatment of inflammatory conditions
The present embodiments relate to methods for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory conditions such as alcoholic liver disease (ALD). More specifically the present embodiments relate to the prevention and treatment of ALD through the administration of an Retinoic Acid Receptor (RAR) agonist. Some embodiments relate to use of tazarotene in the prevention and treatment of alcohol-induced liver injury, alcohol-related liver disease, fatty liver disease, hepatic steatosis, alcoholic hepatitis or alcoholic cirrhosis.
