nano-silver (agnp) has biological properties which are significant for consumer products, food technology, textiles and medical applications (e.g. wound care products, implantable medical devices, in diagnosis, drug delivery, and imaging). for their antibacterial activity, silver nanoparticles are largely used in various commercially available products. thus, the use of nano-silver is becoming ...

Adoptive therapies employing T cells engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) have produced curative outcomes in refractory, progressive hematologic cancers, yet the same potential has be fully realized epithelial-derived solid tumors. A major obstacle is limited portfolio of cancer-restricted, cell-surface targets without expression normal tissues. Desmoglein 2 (DSG2) desmosomal...

conclusions with regard to the potent antioxidant properties of silymarin, the neuroprotective effects of this natural compound suggested in the current study may in part be mediated through inhibition of oxidative stress. results exposure to acr reduced cell viability in pc12 cells. pre-treatment of cells with silymarin (100 µm) significantly reduced acr-induced toxicity. in addition, administ...

 Nanotechnology presents countless opportunities to develop new and improved consumer products for the benefit of the society . A most prominent nanoproduct is nanosilver. Nanosilver particles are generally smaller than 100 nm and contain 20–15,000 silver atoms. Despite the wide application of nanomaterials, there is a serious lack of information concerning their impact on human health. In the ...

Dichloroacetate (DCA) as a small, cheap and available anticancer agent, is a pyruvate mimetic compound that stimulates the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) enzyme through inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases (PDHK1-4). DCA turns on programed cell death (apoptosis) which suppressed in tumor cells and therefore inhibits tumor growth. DCA also interferes with the glucose uses of ca...
