Social stigma affects self-esteem, especially in cultural contexts, exacerbating the need for culturally sensitive support.

Protocol of Jojoba ( (Link) Schneider) Callus Induction.

Background And Objectives: Presently, determination of optimum protocol for callus induction of any plant is an important issue in tissue culture technology. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to find out an optimum protocol for callus induction from in vitro cultured jojoba by determining the optimum explant and the best growth regulators mixture for callus induction.

Materials And Methods: The study used three variant explants namely the leaf disks, seeds and nodal segments for callus formation.

Micellar formulations of Crizotinib and Dasatinib in the management of glioblastoma multiforme.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) defies the currently practiced management of radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery and hence, it is associated with a high fatality rate with a median survival of 14.6 months. In our previous work investigating different tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), we established that a combination of Crizotinib and Dasatinib exerted the most potent effect on different GBM cell lines.

Styrene maleic acid encapsulated raloxifene micelles for management of inflammatory bowel disease.

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) comprises a group of disorders that manifest through chronic inflammation of the colon and small intestine. Although the exact cause of IBD is still unclear, dysfunctional immunoregulation involving overproduction of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, and IL-6 have been implicated in pathogenesis. Current therapy relies on immunosuppression, cytotoxic drugs, and monoclonal antibodies against TNF-α.
