Polymer lipid hybrid nanoparticles for phytochemical delivery: challenges, progress, and future prospects.

Phytochemicals, naturally occurring compounds in plants, possess a wide range of therapeutic properties, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antimicrobial activities. However, their clinical application is often hindered by poor water solubility, low bioavailability, rapid metabolism, and instability under physiological conditions. Polymer lipid hybrid nanoparticles (PLHNPs) have emerged as a novel delivery system that combines the advantages of both polymeric and lipid-based nanoparticles to overcome these challenges.

Formulation and evaluation of cetuximab functionalized phospholipid modified nanocrystals of paclitaxel for non-small cell lung cancer therapy.

Present work aims to prepare Soluplus stabilized, phospholipid-modified, and cetuximab-conjugated paclitaxel nanocrystals (NCs) as stable nanocarriers for targeted drug delivery. The NCs, prepared using concurrent antisolvent precipitation cum cold crystallization method followed by probe sonication, were found to be monodispersed particles with sub-200 nm size. The microscopic analysis uncovered rod and spherical anisotropy for Soluplus stabilized (PTX-NCs) and phospholipid modified (Lipid/PTX-NCs) nanocrystals, respectively.

Silent risk: the vertical transmission of Oropouche virus.

The Oropouche virus (OROV), a member of the Orthobunyavirus genus, poses a significant public health challenge due to its potential for vertical transmission and lack of approved vaccines or antiviral treatments. Recent outbreaks have highlighted the association of OROV infection in pregnant women with severe outcomes, including spontaneous abortions, congenital anomalies, and fetal deaths. This letter to the editor emphasizes the need for a multifaceted approach to address the potential for vertical transmission of OROV, including the use of small animal models, detailed pathological studies, and robust preventive measures.

Evaluation of Quercetin's Bioenhancing Effect on Oral Pharmacokinetics of Rosuvastatin in Wistar Rats Using RP-HPLC Method.

Background: The absolute oral bioavailability of rosuvastatin (RST), a secondgeneration statin, is low i.e. 20% and only 10% is recovered as metabolite N-desmethy l rosuvistatin.

Role of the Stem Cells from Human Deciduous Teeth in Dentistry: A Review.

Stem cells isolated from human exfoliated deciduous teeth or SHED possess high rate of proliferation along with high osteogenic as well as neurogenic differentiation when compared with dental pulpal stem cells. This stem cell population is an important source for therapeutic regeneration of tissues. Hence, the aim of present review article was to analyze the potential applications of SHED.

Immunohistochemical analysis of p53 and p63 in selected odontogenic cysts and tumours.

Background: It is a well-recognized fact that abnormal cell proliferation plays a crucial role in the development of odontogenic lesions. p53 is a tumour-suppressor gene which assists in cell cycle regulation and p63 is a homolog of p53 responsible for ectodermal differentiation and maintenance of stratified epithelial progenitor-cell. Analysing the tissue expression of p53 and p63 in odontogenic lesions may provide us with an insight into their potential role in the development of these lesions.
