The development of drug resistance in cancer cells is one of the major obstacles to achieving effective chemotherapy. We hypothesized that the combination of a doxorubicin (Dox) prodrug and microRNA (miR)21 inhibitor might show synergistic antitumor ...
Sensitive determination of the pharmacokinetics of PEGylated molecules can accelerate the process of drug development. Here, we combined different anti-PEG Fab expressing 293T cells as capture cells (293T/3.3, 293T/6.3, and 293T/15-2b cells) with fou...
There is huge interest in biosensors as a result of the demand for personalized medicine. In biomolecular detection, transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can be used as signal-enhancing elements. Herein, we utilize a solution-based electrochemical...

Problems commonly associated with using nanoemulsions are their cytotoxic effects and low stability profiles. Here, for the first time, concentrations of ingredients of a nanoemulsion system were investigated to obtain the most stable nanoemulsion sy...
A predictive model of a virgin coconut oil (VCO) nanoemulsion system for the topical delivery of copper peptide (an anti-aging compound) was developed using an artificial neural network (ANN) to investigate the factors that influence particle size. F...
Materials science is undergoing a revolution, generating valuable new materials such as flexible solar panels, biomaterials and printable tissues, new catalysts, polymers, and porous materials with unprecedented properties. However, the number of pot...
