In this work, a novel risk-based methodology for lot release is proposed. Its objective is to assess the risk that a lot declared to have passed truly meets product specifications. The methodology consists of 3 parts: adaptive sample size determination, estimation of the probability that the product was within specifications, and the lot-release decision. The methodology provides a probabilistic statement about the true quality of the batch. Having a probability estimate is the essential condition of risk-based decision-making. We demonstrate the proposed methodology on experimental data generated from 17 immediate-release solid oral drug products from a number of different manufacturers with 5 to 10 lots per manufacturer.

Titanium dioxide (TiO) nanoparticles are being extensively used in a wide range of industrial applications for producing a variety of different consumer products, including medicines and even food items. The consumption of these products is increasing at an alarming rate, and this results in the release of these nanoparticles in the environment, causing a threat to organisms thriving in aquatic as well as terrestrial ecosystems. That is why screening such materials for their genotoxic effects, if any, becomes essential.

Since its discovery in 1992, the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) has emerged as a key receptor in many pathological conditions, especially in inflammatory conditions. RAGE is expressed by most, if not all, immune cells and can be activated by many ligands. One characteristic of RAGE is that its ligands are structurally very diverse and belong to different classes of molecules, making RAGE a promiscuous receptor.

Background: Acute lung injury (ALI) significantly impacts the survival rates in intensive care units (ICU). Releasing a lot of pro-inflammatory mediators during the progression of the disease is a core feature of ALI, which may lead to uncontrolled inflammation and further damages the tissues and organs of patients. This study explores the potential therapeutic mechanisms of Dexmedetomidine (Dex) in ALI.

Background: Bile salts enriched nanovesicles (bilosomes) have been attention worthy in the past few years due to their distinctive effect on the enhancement of drug delivery through various physiological administration routes. Oral delivery of multifunctioning phytochemical curcumin has faced a lot of difficulties due to its scarce solubility and poor oral bioavailability.
Objective: The current investigation aimed to develop curcumin loaded bilosomes for improvement of oral curcumin bioavailability with maximum efficiency and safety.

Polymeric biomaterials have important applications in aiding clinical disease treatment, including drug delivery, bioimaging, and tissue engineering. Currently, conventional tumor chemotherapy faces obstacles such as poor solubility/stability, inability to target, and uncontrolled drug release in clinical trials, for which the emergence of supramolecular material therapeutics combining non-covalent interactions with conventional therapies is a very promising candidate. Due to their molecular recognition abilities with a range of biomolecules, cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n]), a type of macrocyclic receptors with robust backbones, hydrophobic cavities, and carbonyl-binding channels, have garnered a lot of attention.
