Applications of polydopaminic nanomaterials in mucosal drug delivery
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article Review)Polydopamine (PDA) is a biopolymer with unique physicochemical properties, including free-radical scavenging, high photothermal conversion efficiency, biocompatibility, biodegradability, excellent fluorescent and theranostic ... -
Circulating exosomal immuno-oncological checkpoints and cytokines are potential biomarkers to monitor tumor response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy in non-small cell lung cancer patients
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2023 , Article)Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) including anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 antibodies, have significantly changed the treatment outcomes of NSCLC patients with better overall survival. However, 15-40% of the patients still ... -
Guggulsterone Induces Apoptosis in Multiple Myeloma Cells by Targeting High Mobility Group Box 1 via Janus Activated Kinase/Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription Pathway
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2022 , Article)Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological disorder characterized by the abnormal expansion of plasma cells in the bone marrow. Despite great advances over the past three decades in discovering the efficacious therapies for ... -
Nano-vitamin C: A promising candidate for therapeutic applications
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article Review)Vitamin C is an important nutrient implicated in different physiological functions in humans. Despite its important biological functions, therapeutic applications of vitamin C are rare and its use is further impacted by ... -
A novel approach of encapsulating curcumin and succinylated derivative in mannosylated-chitosan nanoparticles
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Curcumin (CUR) manifests anti-colon cancer activity but suffers from low solubility, bioavailability, and instability, rendering it not as effective as its chemotherapeutic cousins. Here, we conjugate CUR to succinic ... -
Role of HMGB1 and its associated signaling pathways in human malignancies
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)The High-Mobility Group Box-1 (HMGB1), a non-histone chromatin-associated protein, plays a crucial role in cancer growth and response to therapy as it retains a pivotal role in promoting both cell death and survival. HMGB1 ... -
Studies on anti-colon cancer potential of nanoformulations of curcumin and succinylated curcumin in mannosylated chitosan
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Colon cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of death and the third most diagnosed cancer worldwide. Although curcumin (CUR) has demonstrated a potent anticancer activity, it is characterized by its poor solubility, low ... -
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling in tumour vascularization: Potential and challenges
( Bentham , 2017 , Article)Angiogenesis is defined as the physiological process by which new blood vessels develop from pre-existing vessels; either by sprouting or intussusception. Inhibition of angiogenesis is one of the most encouraging strategies ...
