This study investigates a class of materials known as polymer nanodielectrics, which are formed by incorporating ceramic fillers into polymers. These materials offer the unique advantage of tunable electrical and optical properties. The research focuses on the incorporation of high-purity stannic oxide nanoparticles (SnO NPs) into a ternary blend matrix of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) using a solution casting method.

Current study aims exploration of -benzoxazole bearing -Schiff base scaffolds () as anti-Alzheimer's agents. 2-aminophenol is used as starting materials which react with different reagents in different step to give us -benzoxazole bearing -Schiff base analogs. NMR and HREI-MS techniques were used for characterization.

A well-known natural ingredient found in several medicinal plants, berberine (Ber), has been shown to have anticancer properties against a range of malignancies. The limited solubility and bioavailability of berberine can be addressed using Ber-loaded nanoparticles. In this study, we compared the in vitro cytotoxic effects of both Ber-loaded silver nanoparticles (Ber-AgNPs) and Ber-loaded selenium nanoparticles (Ber-SeNPs) in the human liver cancer cell line (HepG2) and mouse normal liver cells (BNL).

Cancer is recognized as the leading cause of death worldwide. The hippo signaling pathway regulates organ size by balancing cell proliferation and cell death; hence dysregulation of the hippo pathway promotes cancer‑like conditions. miRNAs are a type of non‑coding RNA that have been shown to regulate gene expression.
