(
Bentham Science Publishers
, 2018 , Article Review)
The FOXO (Forkhead box O) transcription factors are implicated in several signaling pathways and play a vital role in various cellular and physiological processes include for instance, ROS (reactive oxygen species) response, ...
Letrozole-loaded nonionic surfactant vesicles prepared via a slurry-based proniosome technology: Formulation development and characterization
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Slurry-based Letrozole (LTZ)-loaded proniosomes were designed using sucrose or sorbitol as carriers and various ratios of cholesterol (CH) and Tween 80 (T80) as lipid composition. Proniosomes were hydrated and probe-sonicated ...

(
BMC
, 2020 , Article Review)
Early-stage detection of leukemia is a critical determinant for successful treatment of the disease and can increase the survival rate of leukemia patients. The factors limiting the current screening approaches to leukemia ...
Expression profile of MicroRNA: An Emerging Hallmark of Cancer.
(
Bentham Science Publishers
, 2019 , Article Review)
MicroRNA (miRNAs), a class of small, endogenous non-coding RNA molecules of about 21-24 nucleotides in length, have unraveled a new modulatory network of RNAs that form an additional level of post-transcriptional gene ...
Characterization of MXene as a Cancer Photothermal Agent Under Physiological Conditions
(
Frontiers Media
, 2021 , Article)
A growing interest has recently emerged in the use of nanomaterials in medical applications. Nanomaterials, such as MXene, have unique properties due to their 2D ultra-thin structure, which is potentially useful in cancer ...

(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are new generation of anti-cancer drugs with very high efficiency against cancer cells. However, TKIs are associated with severe cardiotoxicity limiting their clinical benefits. One TKI ...
Role of NAD+ in regulating cellular and metabolic signaling pathways
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article Review)
BackgroundNicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a critical coenzyme present in every living cell, is involved in a myriad of metabolic processes associated with cellular bioenergetics. For this reason, NAD+ is often ...
miRNAs as novel immunoregulators in cancer
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article Review)
The immune system is a well-known vital regulator of tumor growth, and one of the main hallmarks of cancer is evading the immune system. Immune system deregulation can lead to immune surveillance evasion, sustained cancer ...
