Erythrocytes Nanoparticle Delivery: A Boon for Targeting Tumor.

Although nanoparticles (NPs) have many advantages as drug delivery systems, their poor stability in circulation, premature drug release, and nonspecific uptake in non-target organs have prompted biomimetic approaches to camouflage nano vehicles using natural cell membranes. Among them, which are extensively studied in erythrocytes, are the most abundant circulating blood cells. They are specially used for biomimetic coating on artificial NPs due to their excellent properties of good biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-immunogenicity, and long-term blood circulation.

Novel Approaches to Control Diabetes.

Diabetes is a chronic, long-term, incurable, but controllable condition. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic disorders characterized by hyperglycemia that results from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. People who have diabetes often experience a variety of symptoms, including blurry vision, excessive thirst, fatigue, frequent urination, hunger, and weight loss.

Nanoparticle: A Unique Strategy for Antifungal Agents.

Nanomaterials are emerging as an innovative and efficient instrument for the transport and cellular translocation of therapeutic compounds, namely, biopharmaceuticals. The use of nanoparticles as drug carriers in the healthcare industry, for instance, in several applications, with drug delivery being among the most significant. These nanomaterials are adaptable and have qualities that are good for delivering compounds that are biologically active.

Formulation and Development of Transferrin Targeted Solid Lipid Nanoparticles for Breast Cancer Therapy.

Breast cancer is conventionally treated by surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy followed by post operational hormonal therapy. Tamoxifen citrate is a best option to treat breast cancer because its selective estrogen receptor modulation activity. Owing to its antiestrogenic action on breast as well as uterine cells, Tamoxifen citrate shows uterine toxicity.
