Therapeutic efficiency of Tamoxifen/Orlistat nanocrystals against solid ehrlich carcinoma via targeting TXNIP/HIF1-α/MMP-9/P27 and BAX/Bcl2/P53 signaling pathways.

Background: Orlistat (Orli) is an anti-obesity medication that has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. It has relatively limited oral bioavailability with promising inhibitory effects on cell proliferation as well as reducing the growth of tumors.

Aims: This investigation was done to evaluate the potential protective effect of Tamoxifen/Orlistat nanocrystals alone or in combination against Solid Ehrlich Carcinoma (SEC) and to clarify the possible underlying influences.

In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation of Dark Chocolate as Age-appropriate Oral Matrix.

Swallowing difficulties encountered by geriatric patients who undergo polypharmacy represent a significant challenge that hampers patient compliance and therapeutic management. As an appealing and sensory-pleasing, chocolate-based formulations have emerged as a potential alternative oral dosage form suitable for both the elderly and paediatric populations. However, the extent to which the incorporation of drugs into a chocolate matrix affects their oral availability remains unclear.

Hypolipidaemic and Insulin Secretagogue Activities of (R)-(-)-Carvone.

Background: Dyslipidaemias are common in patients with diabetes mellitus. A high prevalence of type 2 diabetes in hyperlipidaemic patients also exists. The aim of this study was to find a treatment that lowers both blood glucose and lipid levels simultaneously.
