Advances in screening and diagnostic lab-on-chip tools for gynaecological cancers - a review
Artif Cells Nanomed Biotechnol. 2023 Dec;51(1):618-629. doi: 10.1080/21691401.2023.2274047. Epub 2023 Nov 7.ABSTRACTGynaecological cancers are a major global health concern due to the lack of effective screening programmes for ovarian and endometrial cancer, for example, and variable access to vaccination and screening tests for cervical cancer in many countries. Recent research on portable and cost-effective lab-on-a-chip (LoC) technologies show promise for mass screening and diagnostic procedures for gynaecological cancers. However, most LoCs for gynaecological cancer are still in development, with a need to establish an...

Niosomes gel of apigenin to improve the topical delivery: development, optimization, < em > ex vivo < /em > permeation, antioxidant study, and < em > in  vivo < /em > evaluation
Artif Cells Nanomed Biotechnol. 2023 Dec;51(1):604-617. doi: 10.1080/21691401.2023.2274526. Epub 2023 Nov 1.ABSTRACTNiosomes (NS) are the promising and novel carrier of the drug for effective transdermal delivery. Apigenin (AN) is a natural bioactive compound and has various pharmacological activities. AN is poorly water soluble which directly affects therapeutic efficacy. The aim of this research work was to develop the AN-NS gel to improve transdermal delivery. The thin-film hydration method was used for the development of AN-NS. The optimized AN-NS (AN-NS2) has a vesicle size of 272.56 ± 12.49 nm, PDI is 0.249, zeta po...

A study on the therapeutic potential of graphene titanate nanocomposite for treating chemically induced arthritis in rats
Artif Cells Nanomed Biotechnol. 2023 Dec;51(1):590-603. doi: 10.1080/21691401.2023.2268653. Epub 2023 Oct 30.ABSTRACTNanotechnology holds substantial promise in the innovative therapies for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The current study was designed to synthesize and characterize a new graphene titanate nanocomposite (GTNc) and explore its anti-arthritic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant potencies against Complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced arthritis in rats, as well as investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms. Our characterization methods included XRD, FT-IR, SEM, EDX, zeta potential, practical size, and XRF t...

Cancer reduction in mice with Prakasine nanomedicine immunotherapy
In this study, non-toxic mercury nanoparticle Prakasine (PRK-NP) was synthesized as per 'Prakash theory of metal drugs' and nanoparticle's non toxicity has been demonstrated by employing in vitro MTT (dose = 320ug/ml), SBR (dose = 80ug/ml) and apoptosis assays (dose = 320ug/ml), and in vivo acute and chronic toxicity studies in mice (n = 12, dose = 900 mg/kg body weight oral), rat (n = 14, dose = 500 mg/kg body weight oral for 18 months), rabbit (n = 14, dose = 500 mg/kg body weight oral for 18 months) and dogs (n = 14, dose = 500 mg/kg body weight oral for 18 months). The MTT, SBR and apoptosis assays established no cytot...
