Nano-mupirocin as tumor-targeted antibiotic: Physicochemical, immunotoxicological and pharmacokinetic characterization, and effect on gut microbiome.

Nano-mupirocin is a PEGylated nano-liposomal formulation of the antibiotic mupirocin, undergoing evaluation for treating infectious diseases and intratumor bacteria. Intratumoral microbiota play an important role in the regulation of tumor progression and therapeutic efficacy. However, antibiotic use to target intratumoral bacteria should be performed in a way that will not affect the gut microbiota, found to enable the efficacy of cancer treatments.

Therapeutic efficacy and pharmacokinetics of liposomal-cannabidiol injection: a pilot clinical study in dogs with naturally-occurring osteoarthritis.

Introduction: Osteoarthritis is a common disease in dogs resulting in chronic pain and decreased wellbeing. Common analgesics such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatories may fail to control pain and can produce major adverse effects. Study objectives were to evaluate pharmacokinetics, therapeutic efficacy, and safety of subcutaneous liposomal-cannabidiol (CBD) as an additional analgesic therapy in dogs suffering from naturally-occurring osteoarthritis.

A Case Report of Subcutaneously Injected Liposomal Cannabidiol Formulation Used as a Compassion Therapy for Pain Management in a Dog.

A 14-year-old intact mixed breed dog (26 kg) was submitted for a novel cannabidiol (CBD) analgesic treatment. The dog was cachectic and had a testicular neoplasia, hip and elbow osteoarthritis and severe cervical pain. Analgesic treatment included canine osteoarthritic supplement, robencoxib and gabapentin.

Therapeutic Potential of Injectable Nano-Mupirocin Liposomes for Infections Involving Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria.

Antibiotic resistance is a global health threat. There are a few antibiotics under development, and even fewer with new modes of action and no cross-resistance to established antibiotics. Accordingly, reformulation of old antibiotics to overcome resistance is attractive.
