Marine collagen peptides (MCPs) are natural products prepared by hydrolyzing marine protein through a variety of chemical methods or enzymes. MCPs have range structures and biological activities widely present in species. also small molecular weight, easily modified, absorbed the body. These properties attracted great interest from researchers studying antioxidant, anti-tumor, anti-aging activi...

Coxsackievirus A21 (CAVATAKTM) is a bio-selected oncolytic immunotherapy virus. Following intratumoral (i.t) injection, CAVATAK selectively infects ICAM-1expressing tumor cells, resulting in tumor cell lysis and a systemic immune-mediated anti-tumor response. A Phase II trial of i.t delivered CAVATAK (NCT01227551) in advanced melanoma patients has highlighted antitumor activity in both injected...

the methanolic extract of whole plants of solanum nigrum l. was investigated for anti-inflammatory activity on the experimental animal models. the methanolic extract at a concentration of 100 mg.kg-1 and 200 mg.kg-1, p.o. showed the significant dose dependent anti-inflammatory activity in carrageenin and egg white induced hind paw oedema in rats. anti-inflammatory activity of the tested extract...
