Gliclazide (GLZ), an oral antihyperglycemic medication, has additional beneficial effects, such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, besides lowering blood glucose levels. In this study, the radio-protective effect of GLZ was evaluated against ionizing radiation (IR)-induced intestinal injury in mice. Eight groups of mice were randomized as follows: control, GLZ (5, 10, and 25 mg/kg), IR (6 Gy), and IR + GLZ (at 5, 10, and 25 mg/kg).

Exposure to mid-energy radiation poses significant health risks, necessitating the development of effective shielding materials. Traditional lead-based shields, while effective, have significant drawbacks including toxicity and environmental concerns. This study investigates the potential of lead-free epoxy resin nanocomposites, incorporating bismuth oxide, nickel oxide, and cerium oxide, for mid-energy radiation protection.

Introducing multiple physical cues to control cell behaviors effectively is considered as a promising strategy in developing bioactive wound dressings. Silk nanofiber-based cryogels are developed to favor angiogenesis and tissue regeneration through tuning hydrated state, microporous structure, and mechanical property, but remained a challenge to endow with more physical cues. Here, β-sheet rich silk nanofibers are used to develop cryogels with nanopore structure.
