Abstract Aging has been reported to deteriorate the quantity and quality of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which affect their therapeutic use in regenerative medicine. A dearth of age-related stem cell research further restricts their clinical applications. The present study explores…
Abstract PurposeThe aggressive nature of a tumor is presumably its inherent one, but different environmental cues can manipulate it in many ways. In this context, the influence of metabolic stresses on tumor behavior needs to be analyzed to understand their…
Abstract Gold nanoparticles are widely used for biomedical applications owing to their biocompatibility, ease of functionalization and relatively non-toxic nature. In recent years, biogenic nanoparticles have gained attention as an eco-friendly alternative for a variety of applications. In this report,…
Abstract The work presented in this study, elucidates the change in surface properties of UHMWPE polymer, as a result of microwave assisted Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) plasma. The ECR plasma was found to be suitable to enhance the surface energy…
Abstract Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been a major contributor to the anabolic therapy for osteoporosis, but its delivery to bone without losing activity and avoiding adverse local effects remain a challenge. Being the natural component of bone, use of hydroxyapatite…
Abstract Green chemistry approaches for designing therapeutically significant nanomedicine have gained considerable attention in the past decade. Herein, we report for the first time on anticancer potential of phytogenic platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) and palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) using a medicinal plant…
Abstract ObjectivesPostmenopausal osteoporosis is one of most commonly occurring skeletal diseases leading to bone loss and fragility. Probiotics have been associated with various immunomodulatory properties and thus can be exploited to enhance bone health. In the present study, we report,…
Abstract Osteoporosis is one of the most important but often neglected bone disease associated with aging and postmenopausal condition leading to bone loss and fragility. Probiotics have been associated with various immunomodulatory properties and have the potential to ameliorate several…
Abstract Nanomedicines are emerging outcomes of nanobiotechnology which have promising pharmaceutical applications. Although there are various physical and chemical methods for synthesis of nanoparticles, most of them involve hazardous and toxic chemicals. Thus, there is a continuously growing need for…
Abstract Designing of novel environmentally benign route for synthesis of nanoparticles is a prerequisite for developing nanomedicine. Medicinal plants serve as rich source of diverse phytochemicals which not only synthesize but also stabilize the bioreduced nanoparticles. Herein we report for…
