[Matricaria chamomilla (aqueous extract) improves atopic dermatitis-like lesions in a murine model].

Background: Matricaria Chamomilla L. (Mch), popularly known as chamomile, has been used for centuries as an herbolary remedy due to its broad clinical spectrum. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Mch associated to a vehicle with emollient function in induced atopic dermatitis (AD)-like lesions in a murine model.

Targeting Metabolic Remodeling in Triple Negative Breast Cancer in a Murine Model.

Chemotherapy is the backbone of systemic treatment for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), which is one of the most relevant breast cancers molecular types due to the ability of tumor cells to develop drug resistance, highlighting the urgent need to design newer and safer drug combinations for treatment. In this context, to overcome tumor cell drug resistance, we employed a novel combinatorial treatment including Doxorubicin, Metformin, and Sodium Oxamate (DoxMetOx). Such pharmacological combination targets indispensable hallmarks of cancer-related to aerobic glycolysis and DNA synthesis.

Preparation of (166)Dy/(166)Ho-EDTMP: a potential in vivo generator system for bone marrow ablation.

Background And Aim: Bone-seeking radiopharmaceuticals have been proposed for delivering ablative radiation doses to marrow in multiple myeloma and other haematological malignancies. The aim of this research was to examine the feasibility of labelling ethylenediaminetetramethylenephosphonate (EDTMP) with Dy/Ho as an in vivo generator system and to evaluate whether the in vitro and in vivo stability of Dy-EDTMP and Ho-EDTMP complexes is maintained when the daughter Ho is formed.

Methods: Dy was obtained by neutron irradiation of enriched Dy2O3 in a TRIGA Mark III reactor.
