Objective: To prepare resveratrol solid lipid nanoparticles (Res-SLN) and investigate its physical and chemical speciality and anticancer effects in vitro.
Methods: Res-SLN was prepared by the solvent emulsification-evaporation method. Its morphology, particle size and zata potential were examined by transmission electron microscope and laser granularity equipment. Its entrapment efficiency, drug loading, release concentration were determined by HPLC. Its anticancer effect of Res-SLN in vitro were studied by MTT.
Results: Res-SLN assumed spherical shape. Its distribution of diameter was even with average particle size of 96. 7 nm, zata potential was--16.3mV, drug loading was (7.95 +/- 0.21)%, entrapment efficiency was (91.34 +/- 0.18)%; Res-SLN could retard drug release in vitro and its cytotoxicity was significantly higher than that of oridonin solution against HepG2 cells.
Conclusion: Res-SLN has high entrapment efficiency and drug loading, uniform particle size, and can retard drug release in vitro and enhance anticancer effect.

Alcoholic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (AIONFH) is caused by long-term heavy drinking, which leads to abnormal alcohol and lipid metabolism, resulting in femoral head tissue damage, and then pathological necrosis of femoral head tissue. If not treated in time in clinical practice, it will seriously affect the quality of life of patients and even require hip replacement to treat alcoholic femoral head necrosis. This study will confirm whether M2 macrophage exosome (M2-Exo) miR-122 mediates alcohol-induced BMSCs osteogenic differentiation, ultimately leading to the inhibition of femoral head necrosis.

Powder-based fire extinguishing agents have become a kind of promising substitutes for halon extinguishing agents in civil aircrafts. However, their storage lifespan, significantly influenced by the thermal aging, emerges as a crucial yet overlooked aspect for aviation use. This study investigates the effects of thermal aging cycles on various parameters of ordinary dry powder extinguishing agent (ODPEA) and novel superhydrophobic and oleophobic ultra-fine dry powder extinguishing agent (SHOU DPEA), including surface microscopic morphology, D90 (the diameter at which 90% of the cumulative volume of particles are equal to or smaller than this value), chemical structure, hydrophobic and oleophobic angles, flowability, extinguishing time and effectiveness.

Amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) is one of the most studied strategies for improving the dissolution performance of poorly water-soluble drugs, but ASDs often have low drug loadings, thereby necessitating larger dosage sizes. This study intended to create Soluplus® (SOL)-based microparticle ASDs with high drug loading (up to 60 w/w%) and long-term stability (at least 16 months) using electrospraying to enhance the dissolution of poorly water-soluble celecoxib (CEL). X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses showed that the electrosprayed SOL-CEL microparticles were amorphous, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) data indicated the presence of hydrogen bonding between SOL and CEL in the microparticles, which helped stabilize the ASDs.

Direct force measurements by atomic force microscopy (AFM) have become an indispensable analytical tool in the last decades. Force measurements have been widely used for adhesion measurements, often in combination with the colloidal probe technique. For the latter technique, a colloidal particle is attached to the end of an AFM cantilever, proving great flexibility in terms of colloid/surface interaction to be studied.

Lung cancer (LC) represents a catastrophically huge problem and it is a worldwide issue that has to be resolved. There is a declining confidence in classic cancer treatments as they lack selectivity, spur widespread harm, and exacerbate the suffering of LC patients. The poor solubility and extensive cell damage of Gefitinib limit its use in treating LC.
