Recent Insights into Nano-mediated siRNA Drug Delivery.

Gene silencing is the characteristic that inhibits gene expression afforded by siRNA interference. The efficacy of the delivery system in terms of precision, efficacy, and stability can be enhanced by genebased drug delivery options. The delivery challenges and their associated side effects create a challenge for the delivery of gene-based drug delivery carriers.

Recent Progress in Stimuli-Responsive Intelligent Nano Scale Drug Delivery Systems: A Special Focus Towards pH-Sensitive Systems.

Stimuli-responsive nanocarriers are gaining much attention due to their versatile multifunctional activities, including disease diagnosis and treatment. Recently, clinical applications of nano-drug delivery systems for cancer treatment pose a challenge due to their limited cellular uptake, low bioavailability, poor targetability, stability issues, and unfavourable pharmacokinetics. To overcome these issues, researchers are focussing on stimuli-responsive systems.

In vivo synergistic anti-tumor effect of lumefantrine combined with pH responsive behavior of nano calcium phosphate based lipid nanoparticles on lung cancer.

Conventional treatment options for lung cancer treatment were restricted due to non-specific nature and side effects, with this associated problem and to overcome this we had developed lumefantrine with nano calcium phosphate loaded lipid nanoparticles (LF- CaP- Ls) affording pH sensitive mechanism. Herein, the present study the in vivo anti-cancer property of LF-CaP-Ls was checked in mice models. Further, reduced lung cancer progression of lumefantrine with nano calcium phosphate loaded lipid nanoparticles (LF-CaP-Ls) treated mice were assessed by measuring the 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF) in serum.

Development of Methotrexate and Minocycline Loaded Nanoparticles for the Effective Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that leads to cartilage destruction, synovial joint inflammation, and bacterial joint/bone infections. In the present work, methotrexate and minocycline-loaded nanoparticles (MMNPs) were developed with an aim to provide relief from inflammation and disease progression/joints stiffness and to control the bacterial infections associated with rheumatoid arthritis. MMNPs were developed and optimized by solvent evaporation along with high-pressure homogenization technique using poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (50:50%) copolymer.

New Disposable Nitric Oxide Sensor Fabrication Using GaN Nanowires.

Gallium nitride (GaN) nanowires anchored on the surface of cost-effective pencil graphite electrodes (PGEs) have been developed as a new disposable nitric oxide (NO) sensor through a hydrothermal method followed by annealing treatment. The as-obtained nanomaterials were examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and EIS. Concurrently, the electrocatalytic performance has been analyzed using cyclic voltammetry and amperometric measurements.

Combinatorial analysis of quercetin and resveratrol by HPTLC in /phyto-based nanoformulations.

A sensitive HPTLC method was developed for the simultaneous estimation of quercetin (QUR) and resveratrol (RES). The chromatographic separation was achieved using mobile phase toluene:chloroform:ethyl acetate:formic acid (3:2:4.9:0.

pH responsive delivery of lumefantrine with calcium phosphate nanoparticles loaded lipidic cubosomes for the site specific treatment of lung cancer.

The present work aim to develop pH responsive nanosystem comprising lumefantrine with calcium phosphate nanoparticles loaded lipidic cubosomes for the effective treatment of lung cancer. FTIR results showed that, compatibility nature of selected excipients for the synthesis of LF-CaP-Cs. The XRD results showed developed LF-CaP-Cs were non crystalline in nature.

Novel nano therapeutic materials for the effective treatment of rheumatoid arthritis-recent insights.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common complex multifactorial joint related autoimmune inflammatory disease with unknown etiology accomplished with increased cardiovascular risks. RA is characterized by the clinical findings of synovial inflammation, autoantibody production, and cartilage/bone destruction, cardiovascular, pulmonary and skeletal disorders. Pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10 were responsible for the induction of inflammation in RA patients.
