Background: Nanotechnology has emerged as a promising field for the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of respiratory tract infections (RTIs). By leveraging the unique properties of nanoscale delivery systems, nanotechnology can significantly enhance the selectivity and efficacy of antimicrobials, thereby reducing off-target effects.

Objective: This review explores the development and application of targeted nanosystems in combating viral, bacterial, and fungal RTIs.

Purpose: The primary objectives of this trial were aimed at exploring the pharmacokinetic profiles and the human bioequivalence of an intravenous liposomal injection of doxorubicin hydrochloride in comparison with a reference formulation in Chinese patients diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer.

Methods: To achieve these goals, the trial employed a randomized, open-label, two-formulation crossover dosing strategy among Chinese patients with metastatic breast cancer. Pharmacokinetic (PK) evaluation was conducted through the collection of blood samples, and the liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) method was leveraged to quantify plasma concentrations of both liposome-encapsulated doxorubicin and non-encapsulated doxorubicin in patients.

Auricular Mucormycosis: Comprehensive Literature Review.

Ear Nose Throat J

January 2025

Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Al Mouwasat University Hospital, Damascus University, Damascus, Syria.

Auricular mucormycosis is an exceptionally rare and aggressive fungal infection primarily affecting immunocompromised individuals, particularly those with poorly controlled diabetes. This report presents the case of a 54-year-old diabetic woman with isolated auricular mucormycosis and facial nerve palsy. The patient developed right auricular edema, necrosis, and severe pain, progressing over 10 days, with no history of trauma.

Objective: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women, posing significant health risks. This study investigates niosome nanoparticles as a delivery system for Cyclophosphamide (CYC) and Sodium Oxamate (SO) to target apoptotic pathways in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells.

Methods: Lipid-based niosomes were prepared using the thin-film hydration method and characterized for size, zeta potential, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) profiles.

SRT3025-loaded cell membrane hybrid liposomes (3025@ML) enhanced anti-tumor activity of Oxaliplatin via inhibiting pyruvate kinase M2 and fatty acid synthase.

Lipids Health Dis

January 2025

Department of Urology, Henan Provincial People's Hospital, Zhengzhou University People's Hospital, Henan University People's Hospital, Zhengzhou, 450003, China.

Background: Bladder cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the urinary system. Despite significant advances in diagnosis and treatment, the compromised therapeutic effect of chemotherapeutic agents, such as Oxaliplatin (OXA), remains a major clinical challenge. Thus, a combination therapy is required to enhance the OXA's therapeutic effectiveness and improve patient outcomes.
