Gross anatomy of vascular supply and drainage of mammary fat pads in mice models.

This work extensively studied the vasculature of mice mammary fat pads (BALB/c and C57BL/6) with special reference to haematogenous drainage routes. Mammary fat pads were five pairs (first cervical, second and third thoracic, fourth abdominal and fifth inguinal), bilaterally symmetrical, extending laterally and continuously with the subcutaneous fascia. The superficial cervical artery and vein primarily accomplished the blood vasculature of the first mammary fat pad, while the lateral thoracic and external thoracic arteries and veins supplied the second and third mammary fat pads.

Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative condition associated with ageing, can occur. AD gradually impairs memory and cognitive function, which leads to abnormal behavior, incapacity, and reliance. By 2050, there will likely be 100 million cases of AD in the world's population.

Naringenin Sensitizes Resistant C6 Glioma Cells with a Repressive Impact on the Migrating Ability.

Background: Glioma, the most common form of a malignant brain tumour is characterised by a poor prognosis, which is attributable to its resistance against current therapeutic approaches. Temozolomide (TMZ), a DNA alkylating agent, is the first-line drug for glioma treatment. Long-term treatment using TMZ was reported to culminate in the development of resistance with overexpression of multidrug resistance 1 gene coded protein P-glycoprotein, which in turn releases the drugs from the tumour cells.

Trigonelline-loaded chitosan nanoparticles prompted antitumor activity on glioma cells and biocompatibility with pheochromocytoma cells.

Trigonelline-loaded water-soluble chitosan nanoparticles (Trigo-WSCS NPs) were prepared for the treatment of glioblastoma (targeting C6 glioma cells) and also evaluated its biocompatibility with rat adrenal pheochromocytoma cells (PC12 cells). WSCS-Trigo NPs characteristics were determined using UV-Visible spectrophotometer, FTIR, XRD, TEM, DLS, and Zeta potential. Trigo-WSCS NPs were noted to have a spherical shape, with an average size of 356 nm.
