Fabrication, optimization, and characterization of pH-responsive PEGylated nanoniosomes containing gingerol for enhanced treatment of breast cancer.

Multiple potential drug delivery strategies have emerged as a result of recent advances in nanotechnology and nanomedicine. The aim of this research was to prepare an optimized system of PEGylated gingerol-loaded niosomes (Nio-Gin@PEG) as an excellent candidate for the treatment of human breast cancer cells. The preparation procedure was modified by adjusting the drug concentration, lipid content, and Span60/Tween60 ratio, resulting in high encapsulation efficacy (EE%), rapid release rate, and reduced size.

In silico and in vitro studies of GENT-EDTA encapsulated niosomes: A novel approach to enhance the antibacterial activity and biofilm inhibition in drug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) is a common pathogen inducing catheter-related biofilm infections. Developing effective therapy to overcome antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Kp is a severe therapeutic challenge that must be solved. This study aimed to prepare niosome-encapsulated GENT (Gentamicin) and EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) (GENT-EDTA/Nio) to evaluate its efficacy toward Kp strains.

Folate-Targeted Curcumin-Loaded Niosomes for Site-Specific Delivery in Breast Cancer Treatment: In Silico and In Vitro Study.

As the most common cancer in women, efforts have been made to develop novel nanomedicine-based therapeutics for breast cancer. In the present study, the in silico curcumin (Cur) properties were investigated, and we found some important drawbacks of Cur. To enhance cancer therapeutics of Cur, three different nonionic surfactants (span 20, 60, and 80) were used to prepare various Cur-loaded niosomes (Nio-Cur).

Ecofriendly Biomolecule-Capped -Manufactured Silver Nanoparticles and Efflux Pump Genes Expression Alteration in .

is currently considered as an immediate threat to human health due to its various multidrug efflux pumps. Microbially synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are an attractive and eco-friendly approach to prevent antibiotic resistance in bacteria. In the present study, we compared the inhibitory effect of both commercial and green AgNPs by on OxqAB efflux pump genes in ciprofloxacin-resistant strains of .
