Background Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is an abnormal growth of cells that leads to tumor formation in the head and neck region. Several genes and genetic networks are involved in the process of carcinogenesis. Aim The aim of the present study is to unravel the prognostic marker from a pool of interacting networks governed by the ZEB2gene Materials and methods Computational analysis was employed to identify the protein network interactions, genetic alterations, gene expression, and the survival analysis of the ZEB2 dysregulated network in the head and neck cancer dataset (HNSCC) from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Firehose Legacy.

Self assembling peptidebased hydrogel has been explored for delivering growth factors, anticancer drugs, antibiotics etc. Here, RADA 16-I (RADARADARADARADA), an ionic self complementary peptide that forms a well defined nanohydrogel has been studied for its ability to deliver PDGF-BB in a sustained manner and to destruct biofilm formed by wound specific pathogens. Results of the structural analysis of the nanohydrogel studied through AFM, FeSEM, CD, FT-IR and Rheometry, revealed the hydrogel forming ability of RADA 16-I with stable β-sheet structure at room temperature.
