Improved chemotherapeutic efficacy of injectable chrysin encapsulated by copolymer nanoparticles
Chrysin is a flavone that is found in several plants and in honeycomb and possesses various biological activities. However, its low solubility means it has poor bioavailability, which must be resolved to enable its pharmaceutical applications. In the present study, chrysin was incorporated into methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-β-polycaprolactone nanoparticles (chrysin-NPs) using the oil-in-water t...
متن کاملTherapeutic efficacy of Poly(DL-lactide-Co-Glycolide)-encapsulated antitubercular drugs against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection induced in mice.
Poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLG) microparticles were developed as carriers for isoniazid and rifampin in order to improve compliance of tuberculous chemotherapy. Antitubercular drugs encapsulated in PLG polymers and injected in a single dose subcutaneously resulted in a sustained release (up to 6 weeks) of drugs in various organs of mice. Further, Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv-infected ...
متن کاملLocal bacteria affect the efficacy of chemotherapeutic drugs
In this study, the potential effects of bacteria on the efficacy of frequently used chemotherapies was examined. Bacteria and cancer cell lines were examined in vitro and in vivo for changes in the efficacy of cancer cell killing mediated by chemotherapeutic agents. Of 30 drugs examined in vitro, the efficacy of 10 was found to be significantly inhibited by certain bacteria, while the same bact...
متن کاملChemotherapeutic drugs in pregnancy.
Chemotherapy may be indicated for the treatment of cancer during pregnancy. The decision to use chemotherapy significantly impacts the pregnancy, and in turn the pregnancy may affect the treatment options available to patients with cancer. This review provides information about the effects of chemotherapeutic agents in pregnancy, taking into account both the mother and the fetus. For convenienc...
متن کاملBiodistribution Study of Nanoparticle Encapsulated Photodynamic Therapy Drugs Using Multispectral Imaging.
Photodynamictherapy (PDT) uses a drug called a photosensitizer that is excited by irradiation with a laser light of a particular wavelength, which generates reactive singlet oxygen that damages the tumor cells. The photosensitizer and light are inert; therefore, systemic toxicities are minimized in PDT. The synthesis of novel PDT drugs and the use of nanosized carriers for photosensitizers may ...
