Cationic and anionic PLGA-cholesterol hybrid nanoparticles as promising platforms to enhance the trypanocidal efficacy of benznidazole and drug delivery in Trypanosoma cruzi-infected cells.

Chagas disease is a neglected tropical disease caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, remains a significant global health challenge. Currently, benznidazole (BNZ) is the primary treatment in many countries. However, this drug is limited by low bioavailability, significant host toxicity, and reduced efficacy in chronic disease phase.

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles derived from algae and their larvicidal properties to control .

Mosquito vectors such as . are responsible for the transmission of arboviruses that have a major impact on public health. Therefore, it is necessary to search for ways to control these insects, avoiding the use of conventional chemical insecticides that are proven to be toxic to nature.
