Significance The iron-exporting protein ferroportin is recognized as central to systemic iron regulation, but its role in tissues other than those involved handling unknown. This study shows that expression cardiomyocytes essential intracellular homeostasis and normal cardiac function. It also demonstrates the site of accumulation iron-overloaded heart depends on whether expressed cardiomyocytes. further functional significance overload highly dependent upon accumulation. These findings...

The increasing emergence of skin diseases and the difficulty in treating damaged using conventional therapies have been calling for development novel drug delivery systems towards an effective topical administration. Drug are able to produce these results by means improved features, including controlled release, increased permeation retention, decreased systemic adverse effects. Natural polymers proved be good excipients incorporation hybrid (nanocarriers dispersed a semisolid base)...

Transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDSs) have provided many priorities over other administration routes, especially the oral route. Despite their advantages, there are some limitations regarding TDDSs, including those dedicated to use of hydrophobic drugs. The emergence novel nanostructures has presented various opportunities develop advanced TDDSs overcome challenges on using these systems. Polymeric nanofibers present a unique structure for applications due large loading capacity and ease...
