Novel Therapeutics for Malaria

A systematic review of gold nanoparticles as novel cancer therapeutics

Objective(s):The current systematic study has reviewed the therapeutic potential of gold nanoparticles as nano radiosensitizers for cancer radiation therapy.   Materials and Methods: This study was done to review nano radiosensitizers. PubMed, Ovid Medline, Science Direct, SCOPUS, ISI web of knowledge, Springer databases were searched from 2000 to September 2013 to identify appropriate studies....

Resistance to chloroquine unhinges vivax malaria therapeutics.

Antibody- and Fc-receptor-based therapeutics for malaria.

Abs (antibodies) are complex glycoproteins that play a crucial role in protective immunity to malaria, but their effectiveness in mediating resistance can be enhanced by genetically engineered modifications that improve on nature. These Abs also aid investigation of immune mechanisms operating to control the disease and are valuable tools in developing neutralization assays for vaccine design. ...

Functionalized CNTs for delivery of therapeutics

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are high aspect ratio allotropes of carbon. Because of their unique physical and chemical characteristics, they are nominated for a vast variety of applications in the biomedical field. Their very low solubility is the only problem of them which is solved by different methods of Functionalization. After discoveries in the last few years of the capacity of CNTs to penetra...
