bioactive products from snail slime of “helix” specie have potential applications in preventing and/or treating several human diseases and in cancer diagnosis. however, the poor pharmacokinetics characteristics of these natural compounds limit their use. nanotechnology offers promising solutions for the enhanced formulation of these molecules through the synthesis of nanosized drug delivery sys...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the changes in the localisation of glycoconjugates caused by 5-minute-long ischaemia as a consequence of bilateral ligation of common carotid arteries. Histochemical evaluation was performed using specific lectins that recognize the following sugar residues: 1) alpha-D-galactosyl and N-acetylgalactosaminyl (Bandeiraea simplicifolia agglutinin, BS-...
