Development of a new micellar formulation of carvedilol and curcumin to enhance blood pressure reduction in a spontaneously hypertensive rat model.

Cardiovascular diseases remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, requiring innovative therapeutic strategies. This project explores a nano-pharmaceutical approach to enhance the efficacy of cardiovascular drugs, focusing on carvedilol and curcumin. These agents, known for their potential cardiovascular benefits, are encapsulated within Soluplus® micelles to form a novel drug delivery system.

Postoperative Feeding in Cleft Surgery: A Systematic Review.

Introduction: Postoperative feeding is crucial for the recovery of children after cleft surgery. The literature outlines diverse feeding methods with varying recommendations on the duration of non-nipple feeding postsurgery. This study aims to explore reported postoperative feeding modalities for infants undergoing primary cleft lip/palate repair, concentrating on their influence on feeding improvement and complication reduction.

Glutathione overproduction mediates lymphoma initiating cells survival and has a sex-dependent effect on lymphomagenesis.

Lymphoid tumor patients often exhibit resistance to standard therapies or experience relapse post-remission. Relapse is driven by Tumor Initiating Cells (TICs), a subset of tumor cells capable of regrowing the tumor and highly resistant to therapy. Growing cells in 3D gels is a method to discern tumorigenic cells because it strongly correlates with tumorigenicity.

Decoding ribosome complexity: role of ribosomal proteins in cancer and disease.

The ribosome is a remarkably complex machinery, at the interface with diverse cellular functions and processes. Evolutionarily conserved, yet intricately regulated, ribosomes play pivotal roles in decoding genetic information into the synthesis of proteins and in the generation of biomass critical for cellular physiological functions. Recent insights have revealed the existence of ribosome heterogeneity at multiple levels.
