Novel doxorubicin / folate-targeted trans-ferulic acid-loaded PLGA nanoparticles combination: In-vivo superiority over standard chemotherapeutic regimen for breast cancer treatment.

Aim: Doxorubicin/Cyclophosphamide (AC) is one of the standard adjuvant anthracycline-containing regimens that is still in use for breast cancer treatment. Cancer cell resistance and AC-induced side effects make treatment suboptimal and worsen patients' quality of life. This study aimed to improve trans-ferulic acid's (TFA) efficiency via loading into folate-receptor-targeted-poly lactic-co-glycolic acid nanoparticles (FA-PLGA-TFA NPs).

Experimental Investigation of Fabricated Graphene Nanoplates/Polystyrene Nanofibrous Membrane for DCMD.

In recent decades, the fabrication of composite membranes using nanoparticles has played a vital role in membrane distillation (MD) technique. It could make available membranes with superior characteristics as excellent candidates for MD technique. The most well-known obstacles regarding the MD method are the low productivity and high cost.

Modeling and Simulation of Fabricated Graphene Nanoplates/Polystyrene Nanofibrous Membrane for DCMD.

Membrane distillation is an active technique that provides pure water with very good rejection and could be applied to water of extremely high salinity. The low productivity of membrane distillation needs intensive efforts to be competitive with other desalination techniques. In this current study, a composite (PS/GNP) membrane, which is composed of polystyrene (PS) based and 0.

Extranodal extension is a strong prognosticator in HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective: To comprehensively examine the prognostic significance of extranodal extension (ENE) in human papillomavirus-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPV-positive OPSCC).

Methods: Retrospective cohort of cases diagnosed with HPV-positive OPSCC from 2010 to 2015 in the National Cancer Database. Inclusion of all OPSCC HPV-positive cases with appropriate International Classification of Diseases-0-3 codes that received surgery with a neck dissection.

Malignant Transformation of a Desmoplastic Ameloblastoma to Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Case Report.

Ameloblastomas are the most common odontogenic tumors, excluding odontomas. Several morphologic variants have been described including follicular, plexiform, acanthomatous, granular cell, basaloid and desmoplastic. Desmoplastic ameloblastoma differs from other conventional ameloblastomas microscopically, clinically, and radiographically.
