Nanoformulations of Antimicrobial Chemotherapeutics
Bacterial infections represent an increasing worldwide threat. The number of untreatable diseases decreased after the 1950s due to the introduction of antimicrobial agents. However, since the 1980s, morbidity has risen again, and mortality due to respiratory infections, AIDS and tuberculosis now represents about 85% of world mortality from infections [1,2]. The increase in the number of new inf...
متن کاملEffect of Aromatic Substitution of Curcumin Nanoformulations on Their Stability
Curcumin, a poorly water-soluble bioactive compound, was successfully loaded into three different aromatic contents of hydroxypropylmethacrylamide (HPMA)-based polymeric micelles in order to develop water-soluble curcumin nanoformulations (Cur-Nano). The stability study of Cur-Nano was done by keeping the formulations at 4, 30, and 40 °C for 90 days. The physical appearance, curcumin remaining,...

متن کاملInteraction of curcumin nanoformulations with human plasma proteins and erythrocytes
BACKGROUND Recent studies report curcumin nanoformulation(s) based on polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), β-cyclodextrin, cellulose, nanogel, and dendrimers to have anticancer potential. However, no comparative data are currently available for the interaction of curcumin nanoformulations with blood proteins and erythrocytes. The objective of this study was to examine the interaction of curcumin...
متن کاملDevelopment of curcumin as an epigenetic agent.
The clinical benefits of curcumin as a single agent were demonstrated in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer in a phase 2 study despite pharmacokinetic analysis showing a much lower plasma concentration of curcumin in humans than in vitro. The diverse and broad biological activities of curcumin are mediated through direct interaction of curcumin with target proteins as well as epigenetic m...
