Therapeutic Applications of Stimuli‐Based Release and Engineering of Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the effects of endogenous and exogenous stimuli, their effects on the natural release of extracellular vesicles, as well as their uptake and release. It also gives an overview of stimuli‐responsive EVs and their therapeutic applications. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), nano‐ to microsized lipid bilayer membrane‐bound particles, are

Sucrose Concentration and Osmolarity as Factors Affecting in Vitro Wax Accumulation in Jojoba Embryos

HortScience, 1986
Abstract Immature zygotic embryos of jojoba ( Simmondsia chinensis Link) (average 5.6 mm in length about 2 months after pollination) were cultured on semisolid or in liquid basal medium for 8 weeks.

The role of DNA-fragmentation in contrast-induced tubular cell damage

, 2014
Background: Intravascular administration of iodinated contrast is a common cause of hospital-acquired acute kidney injury. Evidence suggests that radiocontrast agent induced nephrotoxicity is associated with increased oxidative stress, leading to renal ...

Evaluation of oral rehydration solution by whole-gut perfusion in rats: effect of osmolarity, sodium concentration and resistant starch [PDF]

, 2006
Background: Reduced osmolarity oral rehydration solution (ORS) improved small bowel absorption of fluid and electrolytes in segmental perfusion in experimental animals; this was borne out in clinical practice.

Tunable Regional Targeting of Self‐Assembling Peptide Nanomaterials in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
In a rat model of acute myocardial infarction, intravascular delivery of peptide nanofibers with a collagen‐targeting peptide bound to the infarct vasculature while globular peptide nanoparticles penetrated into the infarct area. This study demonstrated that size, shape, and surface chemistry of nanomaterials control the delivery location within the ...

Pentavalent antimonial nephrotoxicity in the rat Disfunção tubular renal em ratos tratados com antimoniais pentavalentes

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1990
Aspects of the renal function were assessed in rats treated with the pentavalent antimonials Glucantime (Meglumine Antimoniate, Rhodia) or Pentostam (Sodium Stibogluconate, Wellcome). In dose of 30 mg of Sb v (Glucantime or Pentostam) by 100 mg of weight

Net absorption of water, chloride and hexose from the intestine of dogs

, 1961
Hexose and/or NaCl solutions were perfused at about 100 cm H2O pressure through small intestinal loops in unanesthetized dogs. The rate of glucose absorption increased in curvilinear fashion as the glucose concentration of the infusate ranged from 1% to
