Nose-to-brain delivery of BACE1 siRNA loaded in solid lipid nanoparticles for Alzheimer’s therapy
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
Abstract We designed a delivery system to obtain an efficient and optimal nose-to-brain transport of BACE1 siRNA, potentially useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. We selected a cell-penetrating peptide, the short ...
Nephroprotective Effects of Metformin in Diabetic Nephropathy
(
Wiley
, 2017 , Article)
Metformin, a well-known anti-diabetic agent, is very effective in lowering blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes with minimal side-effects. Metformin is also being recommended in the treatment of obesity and ...

(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
Abstract AimsAlthough type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a common disease in the Arab nations, there is no data available on the prevalence of peripheral neuropathy (PN) among T1D subjects in Arab countries. The aim of this study ...
Structural Analysis of G1691S Variant in the Human Filamin B Gene Responsible for Larsen Syndrome: A Comparative Computational Approach
(
Wiley Periodicals, Inc
, 2017 , Article)
Larsen syndrome (LRS) is a rare genetic disease associated with variable manifestations including skeletal malformations, dislocations of the large joints, and notable changes in facial and limb features. Genetic variants ...
Green tea epigallocatechin 3-gallate alleviates hyperglycemia and reduces advanced glycation end products via nrf2 pathway in mice with high fat diet-induced obesity
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
Abstract Epigallocatechin 3-gallate (EGCG) from green tea may reduce plasma glucose and alleviate complications of diabetes by attenuating advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation. We hypothesized that EGCG would ...
Effect of using Cement Kiln Dust as a nano-material on the strength of cement mortars
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
In this experimental study, the effects of using nano-sized Cement Kiln Dust (CKD) as a partial replacement for Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) on the strength of cement mortars is investigated. The CKD was milled up to 4 ...
Chitosan gold nanoparticles for detection of amplified nucleic acids isolated from sputum
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
A platform for nucleic acid detection employing chitosan and chitosan coated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)
was developed. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) was used as a model target. MTB DNA was extracted
from sputum using ...
Low electro-synthesis potentials improve permselectivity of polymerized natural phenols in biosensor applications
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
First-generation amperometric biosensors are often based on the electro-oxidation of oxidase-generated H2O2. At the applied potential used in most studies, other molecules such as ascorbic acid or dopamine can be oxidized. ...
Specific bioactive compounds in ginger and apple alleviate hyperglycemia in mice with high fat diet-induced obesity via Nrf2 mediated pathway
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
Prolonged hyperglycemia activates the formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). Major
dicarbonyl compounds such as methylglyoxal or glyoxal are found to be the main precursors of AGEs
and N(e)-(carboxymethyl)lysine ...
