Abstract
To improve the retention time of tilisolol in the precorneal area or vitreous body, we prepared liposomes incorporating the O-palmitoyl prodrug of tilisolol. O-Palmitoyl tilisolol was completely incorporated in the liposomes. After topical administration of O-palmitoyl tilisolol liposomes to the rabbit eye, O-palmitoyl tilisolol rapidly disappeared from the tear fluid. The inclusion of 2% carmellose sodium slightly prolonged the retention of O-palmitoyl tilisolol in the tear fluid. After intravitreal injection of O-palmitoyl tilisolol liposomes, there was a relatively prolonged retention of O-palmitoyl tilisolol in the vitreous body. At 24 and 48 h after intravitreal injection of O-palmitoyl tilisolol liposomes, the tilisolol concentration in the vitreous body was significantly higher compared with the concentration after intravitreal injection of tilisolol liposomes.
