Alopecia Management Potential of Rosemary-Based Nanoemulgel Loaded with Metformin: Approach Combining Active Essential Oil and Repurposed Drug.

Introduction: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a multifactorial and age-related dermatological disease that affects both males and females, usually at older ages. Traditional hair repair drugs exemplified by minoxidil have limitations such as skin irritation and hypertrichosis. Thus, attention has been shifted to the use of repurposing drugs.

Rosuvastatin Flexible Chitosomes: Development, In Vitro Evaluation and Enhancement of Anticancer Efficacy Against HepG2 and MCF7 Cell Lines.

Rosuvastatin (ROS), a statin drug with promising anticancer properties has a low bioavailability of approximately 20% due to lipophilicity and first-pass metabolism. This study aimed to enhance ROS anticancer efficacy through loading into flexible chitosomes. The chitosomes were prepared starting from negatively charged liposomes through electrostatic interactions with chitosan.

Oleuropein Relieves Pancreatic Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in Rats by Suppressing Inflammation and Oxidative Stress through HMGB1/NF-κB Pathway.

Oleuropein (OLP) is a naturally occurring phenolic compound in olive plant with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential and can possibly be used in treating pancreatic injuries. This investigation aimed to follow the molecular mechanism behind the potential therapeutic effect of OLP against pancreatic injury persuaded by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Pancreatic I/R injury was induced by splenic artery occlusion for 60 min followed by reperfusion.
