In present work we have designed and synthesized total twelve novel 3-(3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-3-phenylpropanoyl)-4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one derivatives 13(a-l) using Ho(3+) doped CoFe2O4 nanoparticles as catalyst and evaluated for their potential antileis...
Chitosan/DNA polyplexes have been optimized for efficient and safe in vitro and in vivo gene delivery. Clinical application of this technology requires the development of formulations with higher concentrations to reach therapeutic dosages. Polyplexe...
Because of the insolubility of miriplatin in water, miriplatin and lipiodol suspension is the sole formulation of miriplatin approved in Japan to treat hepatocellular carcinoma by transcatheter arterial chemoembolization. Until now, there have been n...
