Background: This study compared the drug release kinetics of mediated selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) gel and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) gel for their potential in local drug delivery for chronic periodontitis.
Material And Method: The drug release was evaluated in-vitro by conducting tests on different formulations, including 1 %, 2 %, 3 %, 4 %, and 5 % mediated SeNPs gel and ZnONPs gel. Each sample, approximately 0.1 mg, was mixed with 10 mL of phosphate buffer saline (PBS) at various pH levels and maintained at 37 °C. The suspension was then placed in an incubated shaker at 120 rpm for 1 h. Five-milliliter samples were withdrawn from the dissolution medium at 30-min intervals and replaced with fresh PBS buffer to maintain a constant volume. The released drug amount was measured using a UV spectrophotometer (Systronics, India) at 290 nm.
Result: The investigation revealed that SeNPs gel exhibited higher drug release percentages compared to ZnONPs gel across various concentrations and time points. The sustained release profiles of both formulations suggest effective control over drug release, maintaining therapeutic drug levels over an extended period. The near-complete release of the drug at 500 min highlights the potential for prolonged therapeutic efficacy, reducing the need for frequent dosing and enhancing patient compliance.
Conclusion: mediated SeNPs gel shows promise for more rapid and sustained drug delivery in the management of chronic periodontitis through local drug delivery systems.

Positive surgical margins following radical prostatectomy significantly contribute to tumor recurrence. While systemic chemotherapy demonstrates limited efficacy in this context, local chemotherapy drug delivery systems based on nanomaterials offer promising strategies to address this issue by modifying drug release kinetics and distribution, thereby enhancing antitumor effects while minimizing the toxicities associated with systemic chemotherapy. In this study, we utilized electrospun nanofibrous mats loaded with docetaxel for sustained drug delivery.

Diabetic nephropathy is a severe chronic complication characterized by cytotoxicity, inflammation, and fibrosis, ultimately leading to renal failure. This study systematically investigated the effects of the PARP1 inhibitor PJ-34 on high glucose-induced cytotoxicity, inflammation, and fibrosis in HK-2 cells, as well as its improvement on neuropathic pain response and transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) expression in a type 1 diabetes mellitus diabetic nephropathy mouse model. Through cellular and animal experiments, we observed that PJ-34 significantly enhanced the proliferative capacity of cells damaged by high glucose, reduced apoptosis, and decreased the release of proinflammatory factors TGFα, interleukin-6, and interleukin-1β.

Postoperative abdominal adhesions are the leading cause of bowel obstruction and a cause of chronic pain and infertility. Adhesion formation occurs after 50 to 90% of abdominal operations and has no proven preventative or treatment strategy. Abdominal adhesions derive primarily from the visceral peritoneum and are composed of polyclonally proliferating tissue-resident fibroblasts.

Background: Strontium ranelate (SR) is an effective bone regeneration drug; however, its low bioavailability and strong hydrophilicity cause a strong cytotoxicity, venous thrombosis, and allergic reactions when administered in its free form. This study aims to enhance the SR bioavailability by utilizing nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) as a drug delivery system (DDS).
Methods: To improve the drug delivery efficiency and sustained release of the NLC, their surfaces were coated with chitosan oligosaccharide (COS), a natural polymer.

Cancer continues to be a significant global health concern, consistently ranking as one of the leading causes of mortality across diverse populations and socio-economic contexts. Genistein, a soy-derived isoflavonoid, has gained significant attention for its diverse health benefits, particularly its potent anticancer activity. Emerging pre-clinical and clinical evidences highlights its ability to modulate key cellular processes, including apoptosis, autophagy, angiogenesis, metastasis, immune responses and cell cycle regulation.
