Because of expanding presence nanomaterials, there has been an increase in the exposure humans to nanoparticles that is why nanotoxicology studies are important. A number on effects nanomatrials vitro and vivo systems have published. Currently cytotoxicity different assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay cell lines determine viability, a tedious expensive method. The aim this study was evaluate Artemia salina test comparison with MTT...

Curcumin is a multitherapeutic agent with great therapeutic potential in central nervous system (CNS) diseases. In the current study, curcumin was encapsulated solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and nanostructured carriers (NLCs) for purpose of increasing brain accumulation. The preparation processes have been optimized using experimental design multiobjective optimization methods. Entrapment efficiency SLNs NLCs found to be 82% ± 0.49 94% 0.74, respectively. pharmacokinetic studies showed...

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are the most commonly used negative MRI contrast agent which affect transverse (T2) relaxation time. The aim of present study was to investigate impact various polymeric coatings on performance magnetite as agents. Ferrofluids based (Fe3O4) were synthesized via chemical co-precipitation method and coated with different biocompatible polymer including mPEG-PCL, chitosan dextran. bonding status polymers surface confirmed by Fourier transform...

Repaglinide is an efficient anti-diabetic drug which prescribed widely as multi-dosage oral daily regimens. Due to the low compliance inherent each regimen, development of prolonged-release formulations could enhance overall efficacy in patient populations. Repaglinide-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) were developed and characterized vitro. Various surfactants used this study during nanocarrier preparation procedure their corresponding effects on some physicochemical properties SLNs...

A conjugate of the antihypertensive drug, lisinopril, with triblock poly(lactic acid)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(lactic acid) (PLA-PEG-PLA) copolymer was synthesized by reaction PLA-PEG-PLA lisinopril in presence dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and dimethylaminopyridine. The conjugated characterized vitro hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance (HNMR), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) gel permeation chromatography (GPC) techniques. Then, were self-assembled...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases and caused by accumulation amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide associated with neurological abnormalities in learning memory. The protective role curcumin on nerve cells, along a potent antioxidant free r adical scavenging activity, has been widely studied. However, its low bioavailability limited transport ability across blood-brain barrier are two major drawbacks application treatment different diseases. present study was...

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) acts as a physical/biochemical that protects brain parenchyma from potential hazards exerted by different xenobiotics found in the systemic circulation. This is created "a lipophilic gate" well series of highly organized influx/efflux mechanisms. BBB bottleneck adversely affects efficacy chemotherapeutic agents treating CNS malignancies such glioblastoma, an aggressive type cancer affecting brain. In present study, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were...

The purpose of this study was to prepare nanoparticles made tri-block poly(lactide)–poly(ethylene glycol)–poly (lactide) (PLA–PEG–PLA) with controlled size as drug carrier. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) were used identify factors which influence particle size. In way, PLA–PEG–PLA synthesized and into by nanoprecipitation under different conditions. copolymer the resulting characterized various techniques such proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared gel...

Introduction: Expansion of efficacious theranostic systems is pivotal significance for medicine and human healthcare. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are known as drug delivery system magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent. MNPs carriers have attracted significant attention because the drugs loaded onto to solid tumors, maintaining them in target site by an external electromagnetic field, subsequently releasing a controlled manner. On other hand, it believed that possess high...
