Women are impacted by the extremely common cancer known as cervical cancer worldwide. Although preventive vaccines for cervical cancer are successful, treatment of cervical cancer is far less satisfactory because of multidrug resistance and side effects. There is an increasing need for alternative treatment modalities due to the rather aggressive and non-specific nature of conventional chemotherapeutics. With the adv Read More

Nano-Structured Lipid Carriers (NLCs) are improved Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNs) that recover the permanency and capacity of drug payload. There are 3 different types of NLCs which have been anticipated. The aforementioned Lipid Nano Particles (LNPs) possess possible tenders in drug delivery systems, cosmeceuticals, clinical research and many others. Here, we highlight the structure, ingredients, different manufacturi Read More

Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) are one of the extensively utilized nanocarriers in the pharmaceutical field due to their biocompatibility and biodegradability. These features of the carrier system have fuelled its use as the drug delivery system since the last three decades. This review presents different SLN preparation techniques, such as high shear homogenization, hot homogenization, cold homogenization, microem Read More

Due to the complexities of the eye's anatomy and physiology, achieving targeted drug delivery with minimal harm to healthy eye tissues has proven to be difficult. The focus of the review is on the potential of lipid and polymer micelle-based drug delivery systems, specifically nanomicelles, to overcome these challenges and improve the absorption of insoluble drugs. Nanomicelles offer several advantages, such as enhanced dr Read More

IntroductionMetal nanoparticles have received much attention due to their unique physical dynamics, chemical reactivity, and promising biological applications. Green synthesis using natural compounds is an alternative to traditional chemical methods for the synthesis of nanoparticles.Materials and MethodsHerein, two secondary metabolites were isolated from different fractions of methanolic extract of Citrullus colocynthis (bitt Read More

BackgroundNimodipine (ND) is a vasodilator drug that is used for acute subarachnoid hemorrhage. It has a predominant hydrophobic property, causing low solubility and low bioavailability. Spanlastics are elastic nanovesicular systems based on non-ionic surfactants and edge activators as major components. The goal of this work is to formulate ND as spanlastic nanovesicles to improve the drug's bioavailability.MethodsSpa Read More

ObjectiveThe study aimed to address the limitations of oral delivery and enhance the bioavailability of Cilnidipine (often prescribed as antihypertensive drug) (CND) through the development of transdermal patches containing ultra-deformable transferosomes.MethodsCND, known for its low oral bioavailability and adverse effects, was encapsulated in transferosomes using a thin film hydration method. Seventeen fo Read More
