Antimalarial Delivery with a Ferritin-Based Protein Cage: A Step toward Developing Smart Therapeutics against Malaria.

Over the past two decades, the utilization of protein cages has witnessed exponential growth driven by their extensive applications in biotechnology and therapeutics. In the context of the recent Covid-19 pandemic, protein-cage-based scaffolds played a pivotal role in vaccine development. Beyond vaccines, these protein cages have proven valuable in diverse drug delivery applications thanks to their distinctive architecture and structural stability.

Myco-synthesis of multi-twinned silver nanoparticles as potential antibacterial and antimalarial agents.

In recent days, biogenic and green approaches for synthesizing nanostructures have gained much attention in biological and biomedical applications. Endophytic fungi have been recognized to produce several important biomolecules for use in various fields. The present work describes the use of endophytic fungi isolated from for the synthesis of multi-twinned silver nanoparticles (MT-AgNPs) and their successful applications in antimicrobial and antimalarial studies.
