Targeted DPPC/DMPG surface-modified voriconazole lipid nanoparticles control invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in immunocompromised population: in-vitro and in-vivo assessment.

Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is the most devastating Aspergillus-related lung disease. Voriconazole (VRZ) is the first-line treatment against IPA. Despite availability in oral and parenteral dosage forms, risks of systemic toxicity dictate alternative pulmonary administration.

Engineered Microencapsulated Lactoferrin Nanoconjugates for Oral Targeted Treatment of Colon Cancer.

Despite current progress in the development of targeted therapies for cancer treatment, there is a lack in convenient therapeutics for colorectal cancer (CRC). Lactoferrin nanoparticles (Lf NPs) are a promising drug delivery system in cancer therapy. However, numerous obstacles impede their oral delivery, including instability against stomach enzymes and premature uptake during passage through the small intestine.

Iron Acquisition Proteins of as Potential Vaccine Targets: In Silico Analysis and In Vivo Evaluation of Protective Efficacy of the Hemophore HasAp.

Background: (PA) is a Gram-negative pathogen responsible for fatal nosocomial infections worldwide. Iron is essential for Gram-negative bacteria to establish an infection. Therefore, iron acquisition proteins (IAPs) of bacteria are attractive vaccine targets.

Bacterial Ghosts of as a Promising Candidate Vaccine and Its Application in Diabetic Rats.

Infections with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) pose a major clinical threat worldwide especially to immunocompromised patients. As a novel vaccine network for many kinds of bacteria, bacterial ghosts (BGs) have recently been introduced. In the present research, using Sponge-Like Reduced Protocol, P.

Recombinant Ax21 protein is a promising subunit vaccine candidate against Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in a murine infection model.

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an emerging pathogen that can cause several disease manifestations such as bacteremia, meningitis, respiratory tract infections and others. More seriously, this pathogen has a highly evolving antibiotic resistance profile. Antibiotic misuse is further aggravating the situation by inducing the development of multi- and even pan-resistance.
