A novel amphiphilic copolymer, folate-poly(PEG-cyanoacrylate-co-cholesteryl cyanoacrylate) (FA-PEG-PCHL) was synthesized to modify docetaxel-loaded nanostructured lipid carrier to lead to a long blood circulating effect and targeting ability for the delivery of antitumor drug in cancer. To investigate the characteristics of modified docetaxel-loaded nanostructured lipid carrier in vivo, a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for the determination of docetaxel in rat plasma and tumor-bearing mouse tissue samples. The biosamples were extracted by liquid-liquid extraction method with ether and separated on a C(18) column (150 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) using a mobile phase consisting of methanol-0.01% formic acid water (82:18, v/v). The standard curves were linear over the ranges of 0.01-4.0 μg/mL for plasma and 0.02-8.0 μg/g for tissue samples, respectively. The validated method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study in rat plasma and tissue distribution study in mouse tissues of docetaxel after an intravenous administration of docetaxel injection (DTX injection), docetaxel-loaded nanostructured lipid carrier (DTX-NLC) and FA-PEG-PCHL-modified docetaxel-loaded nanostructured lipid carrier (FA-DTX-NLC), respectively. The results indicated that the FA-DTX-NLC led to significant differences in pharmacokinetic profile and tissue distribution. Nanostructured lipid carrier modified by FA-PEG-PCHL could be one of the promising suspensions for the delivery of docetaxel in cancer.

Ocular surface chemical injuries often result in permanent visual impairment and necessitate complex, long-term treatments. Immediate and extensive irrigation serves as the first-line intervention, followed by various therapeutic protocols applied throughout different stages of the condition. To optimize outcomes, conventional regimens increasingly incorporate biological agents and surgical techniques.

The development of tumor vaccines represents a significant focus within cancer therapeutics research. Nonetheless, the efficiency of antigen presentation in tumor vaccine remains suboptimal. We introduce an innovative mRNA-lipid nanoparticle platform designed to express tumor antigenic epitopes fused with the transmembrane domain and cytoplasmic tail of the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn).

Background: Tavaborole (TAV), a benzoxaborole derivative, is an FDA-approved antifungal agent for treating onychomycosis, a common and persistent fungal infection of the toenails.
Objective: This study aimed to develop a robust stability-indicating HPTLC method to determine TAV in nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) using a comprehensive approach that includes risk assessment, and Analytical Quality by Design.
Methods: The critical method parameters influencing the HPTLC results were screened using a Placket-Burman screening design followed by its optimization using a central composite optimization design.
Comparison of oxidative stress status in the kidney tissue of male rats treated with paraquat and nanoparaquat.

The study aimed to compare the oxidative stress status in the kidney tissue of rats treated with paraquat and nanoparaquat. The levels of oxidative stress markers, including malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and thiol groups (TTG), were measured in the kidney tissue samples. A total of forty male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to eight groups, each consisting of five rats: a control group, a paraquat (PQ) group, an N-acetylcysteine (NAC) group, groups receiving nanoparaquat α and β (α and β), groups receiving PQ and NAC (PQ + NAC), and groups receiving nanoparaquat α and β with NAC (+ NACα and β).
