To treat diabetic wound healing with a novel Thymoquinone (TQ) loaded nanoformulation by using combination of essentials oils. TQ nanoemulsion (NE) was developed with seabuckthorn & lavender essential oils by phase inversion method and mixture design. Further, DIAGEL is obtained by incorporating NE into 1% carbopol934.

Based on structure-based virtual screening (PDB ID: 4KW5), a focused library of thirty-one skeletally diverse benzothiazole amides was prepared, and the compounds were assessed for their antitubercular activity against H37Ra. Most potent compounds and were further evaluated against the H37Rv strain by the microdilution assay method.

One of the major factors responsible for MDR is the upregulation of efflux pumps. Permeation-glycoprotein (P-gp), an efflux pump, hinders the bioavailability of the administered drugs inside the infected cells.

Osimertinib mesylate (OSM) is a tyrosine-kinase-inhibitor which can effectively treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but still there are certain limitations and side effects which could be circumvented by polymeric nanoparticles approach. Hence, this research was aimed to develop drug-loaded biodegradable polycaprolactone nanoparticles (PCL-NPs) such as OSM-loaded PCL-NPs (PCL-OSM-NPs) and chitosan fabricated OSM-loaded PCL-NPs (CS-PCL-OSM-NPs) to achieve active-targeting of OSM in the cancerous lung tissue.
