Pulmonary delivered polymeric micelles - pharmacokinetic evaluation and biodistribution studies
(2014)Polymeric micelles represent interesting delivery systems for pulmonary sustained release. However, little is known about their in vivo release and translocation profile after delivery to the lungs. In the present study, ... -
Pharmacological and toxicological effects of co-exposure of human gingival fibroblasts to silver nanoparticles and sodium fluoride
(2014)BACKGROUND: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and fluoride (F) are pharmacological agents widely used in oral medicine and dental practice due to their anti-microbial/anti-cavity properties. However, risks associated with ... -

Sodium-23 magnetic resonance imaging has potential for improving penumbra detection but not for estimating stroke onset time
(2015)Tissue sodium concentration increases in irreversibly damaged (core) tissue following ischemic stroke and can potentially help to differentiate the core from the adjacent hypoperfused but viable penumbra. To test this, ... -
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles enhance production of superoxide anion and alter the antioxidant system in human osteoblast cells
(2015)Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) are manufactured worldwide for a variety of engineering and bioengineering applications. TiO2NPs are frequently used as a material for orthopedic implants. However, to the best ... -
CdTe quantum dots induce activation of human platelets: implications for particle hemocompatibility.
(2015)New nanomaterials intended for systemic administration have raised concerns regarding their biocompatibility and hemocompatibility. Quantum dots (QD) nanoparticles have been used for diagnostics, and recent work suggests ... -
Self-assembled hyaluronate/protamine polyelectrolyte nanoplexes: synthesis, stability, biocompatibility and potential use as peptide carriers
(2014)This work investigates a new type of polyelectrolyte complex nanocarrier composed of hyaluronic acid (HA) and protamine (PROT). Small (approximately 60 nm) and negatively charged nanoparticles (NPs) with a polydispersity ... -
Heat induced evaporative antisolvent nanoprecipitation (HIEAN) of itraconazole.
(2014)traconazole (ITR) is an antifungal drug with a limited bioavailability due to its poor aqueous solubility. In this study, ITR was used to investigate the impact of nanonisation and solid state change on drug's apparent ...
