Oxidative stress and inflammatory markers in streptozotocin-induced acute and subacute toxicity response.

Streptozotocin (STZ) is used as a diabetes-inducing agent in experimental animal studies. However, it is known that STZ-induced diabetic animals show significant increases in oxidative stress parameters and neurodegeneration besides their blood glucose level. In this study, the acute and subacute toxic effects of STZ on the liver, sciatic nerve, and brain tissues were investigated rat model.

Receptor mediated targeting of EGF-conjugated alginate-PAMAM nanoparticles to lung adenocarcinoma: 2D/3D in vitro and in vivo evaluation.

Carboplatin (cis-diamine (1,1-cyclobutandicarboxylaso)‑platinum (II)) is a second-generation antineoplastic drug, which is widely used for chemotherapy of lung, colon, breast, cervix, testicular and digestive system cancers. Although preferred over cisplatin due to the lower incidence of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity, efficient carboplatin delivery remains as a major challenge. In this study, carboplatin loaded alginate- poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) hybrid nanoparticles (CAPs) with mean sizes of 192.

Single and repeat-dose toxicity and local tolerance assessment of newly developed oil emulsion adjuvant formulations for veterinary purposes.

Adjuvants are components of vaccines that boost the intensity, duration, and breadth of the immune response. Insight into the mechanisms responsible for the immunotoxicity of both local and systemic adverse reactions following the use of adjuvants has been gained through research over the past twenty years. In the present study, single and repeated-dose toxicity and local tolerance of newly developed Water-in-Oil (W/O) and Water-in-Oil-in-Water (W/O/W) Emulsion adjuvants (Coralvac RZ 528, Coralvac RZ 506, Coralvac AT 318, Coralvac AT 318 SIS and Coralvac 252) by Coral Biotechnology Industry and Trade Incorporated Company were demonstrated after intramuscular injection in mice.
