Lapatinib (LPT) is an orally administered drug for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. For expanding its therapeutic horizon, we have prepared its nanocrystals (LPT-NCs) that were subsequently coated with hyaluronic acid (HA) to produce LPT-HA-NCs. The detailed in-vitro and in-vivo investigation of LPT-HA-NCs showed the superior anticancer activity due to active targeting to CD44 receptors than the counterparts LPT-NCs and free LPT.

Withania somnifera Dunal (Solanaceae) known as Ashwagandha, a popular plant of Indian origin is known to possess tremedous medicinal potential, often used as anti-inflammatory, anti-platelet, antihypertensive, hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic and adaptogenic candidate. Some of its chemotypes developed by CSIR, India includes NMITLI-101, NMITLI-118, NMITLI-128. In this study the investigators have attempted development of a phytosomal complex of NMITLI118RT + (standardized ethanolic extract of a new chemotype of W.

Bicalutamide is a non-steroidal anti-androgen drug used for the treatment of androgen-dependent prostate cancer. Hesperetin is a natural bioflavonoid that can be used in combination with bicalutamide to improve efficacy and decrease tolerance. The aim of the present work was to develop and validate a simple, sensitive, rapid reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatographic method for simultaneous estimation of bicalutamide and hesperetin.

Pneumocephalus is a rare condition characterized by the presence of gas within the cranial cavity. This gas may arise either from a trauma, a tumor, a surgical, or a diagnostic procedure or occasionally from an infection. Pneumocephalus as a complication of bacterial meningitis, in absence of trauma or a procedure, is extremely rare, particularly in a newborn.

Pneumocephalus is a rare condition, characterized by the presence of gas in the cranial cavity, resulting from trauma, tumors and surgical or diagnostic procedures. Intracranial infection, without any predisposing factor like trauma or surgical intervention as a cause of pneumocephalus is relatively uncommon. While, intracranial infections by gas producing organisms as a cause of pneumocephalus are well known, a spontaneous intracranial infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus causing pneumocephalus is little known.
