Silver Nanoparticle‐Mediated Antiviral Efficacy against Enveloped Viruses: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2025.
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibit broad‐spectrum antiviral activity by targeting key viral structures and processes. They disrupt viral envelopes, compromising integrity, and bind to nucleocapsids, impairing viral replication. AgNPs also inhibit glycoprotein interactions, preventing viral attachment and entry into host cells.

Scp776, A Novel IGF‐1 Fusion Protein for Acute Therapy to Promote Escape From Apoptosis in Tissues Affected by Ischemic Injury: 2 Randomized Placebo‐Controlled Phase 1 Studies in Healthy Adults

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 65-78, January 2025.
Abstract Apoptosis is a major driver of cell loss and infarct expansion in ischemic injuries such as acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Insulin‐like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐1) can mitigate cell death and potentiate recovery following acute ischemic injury, but short half‐life and nonspecificity limit its therapeutic ...
