Preparation and Physicochemical Characterization of Hyaluronic Acid-Lysine Nanogels Containing Serratiopeptidase to Control Biofilm Formation.

Remarkable resistance of bacterial biofilms to high doses of antimicrobials and antibiotics is one of their main challenges. Encapsulation of proteolytic enzymes is one of the suggested strategies to tackle this problem. In this regard, the antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity of biocompatible hyaluronic acid- Lysine nanogels containing serratiopeptidase (SRP-loaded HA-Lys nanogel) was assessed against P.

Evaluation of the association between clinical parameters and ADAM33 and ORMDL3 asthma gene single-nucleotide polymorphisms with the severity of COVID-19.

Background: Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Patients had varying clinical symptoms and disease severity (mild, moderate, severe, and critical). Several risk factors, including genetic polymorphisms, have been reported to be associated with disease risk and severity.

Disulfiram-Loaded Niosomes Reduces Cancerous Phenotypes in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cells.

Objective: Surgery and chemotherapy are the most common therapeutic strategies proposed for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, some of the disadvantages associated with the current methods like unwanted side effects and poor drug response lead the scientist to seek for novel modalities and delivery approaches to enhance the efficacy of treatments. The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of disulfiram (DSF)-loaded Niosomes on cancerous phenotypes of the OSCC cells.

Co-delivery of doxorubicin and paclitaxel via noisome nanocarriers attenuates cancerous phenotypes in gastric cancer cells.

Gastric cancer (GC) is known as a deadly malignancy all over the world, yet none of the current therapeutic regimens have achieved efficacy. this current study has aimed to optimize and reduce treatment doses and overcome multidrug resistance in GC by developing optimum niosomal formulation for the delivery of doxorubicin (DXR), paclitaxel (PTX), and their co-delivery. The particles' size, polydispersity index (PDI), and entrapment efficacy (EE%) were optimized using statistical techniques, i.
