Trichinella spiralis can cause systemic inflammatory manifestations all over the body beforehabituating their destination in striated muscles. Its new borne larvae (NBL) most dangerousphase go via bloodstream of different organs during migration.This study explored anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects Curcumin(Cur) Curcumin nanoparticles (Cur-Nano) on pathological changes o...

Abstract Background Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder, which caused by the CFTR protein defects. Along with dysfunction, inflammation plays key role in disease outcomes. Inflammation may develop due to internal dysfunction of or external factors. Curcumin affects function primarily as corrector and potentiator secondary an anti-inflammatory antimicrobial agent. The present study aims a...

pH-sensitive micelles with hydrophilic core and hydrophilic corona were fabricated by self-assembling of triblock copolymer of poly(methylacrylic acid)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(methylacrylic acid) at lower solution pH. Transmission electron microscopy and laser light scattering studies showed micelles were in nano-scale with narrow size distribution. Solution pH value and the micelles concent...

d-Glucosamine (DG) was conjugated to a core-cross linked polymeric micelle (CCPM) system equipped with both a near-infrared fluorophore (NIRF) and a gamma emitter (111In). The resultant nano-scale tumor-targeting imaging tracer, 111In-DG-NIRF-CCPM, selectively accumulated in a human epithelial carcinoma A-431 xenograft model in mice. At 24 hrs post injection, the tumor uptake was 2.62 ± 0.80 % ...

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with nano-curcumin (NCur) and a nano-curcumin/chitosan blend (NCur/Ch) on growth performance, digestibility, immune response, antioxidant status, intestinal morphometric characters, gene regulation in Nile tilapia. Fish (n = 180, initial body weight 12.0 ± 0.53 g) received supplementary NCur at rates 0 (control), 0.00625, 0.012...

Oleanolic acid (OA) is a triterpenoid found in various fruits and vegetables and used in traditional Chinese medicine. OA plays a crucial role in the treatment of several cancers, but poor water solubility, low permeability, and significant efflux have limited its widespread clinical use. Vitamin E-d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (vitamin E-TPGS) and Pluronic P105 were used to impr...

Curcumin is an herbal plant with great therapeutic applications. Although it is useful in treating several diseases, its low solubility in water and low bioavailability in living systems are limiting factors in using curcumin as a medicine. One way to overcome these shortcomings is the production of curcumin micro/nano particles. In this research, the particles of curcumin loaded with polycapro...

Surfactant flooding is a common technique in tertiary oil recovery. However, due to the high temperature of some reservoirs and strong heterogeneity caused by their own geological conditions, use surfactants high-temperature limited. Temperature - resistant can reduce interfacial tension, improve conformance increase washing efficiency In this paper, temperature-resistant nano-type surface acti...

Objective: Despite the prevalence of obesity related liver disease in many countries, there is still no definitive pathway for prevention and treatment. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of combining resistance training and curcumin supplementation on liver enzyme in inactive obese and overweight Females. Materials and Methods: The study was done in a quasi-experimental trial. ...
