Summary: A pod fruit model was proposed to predict residue concentrations in peas. Moderately-lipophilic pesticides showed higher simulated concentrations in peas at harvest compared to hydrophilic or highly-lipophilic pesticides due to their enhanced uptake process in the pod-pea system. Degradation kinetics had a significant impact on moderately-lipophilic pesticides, resulting in substantial loss of residue mass via degradation.

Summary: The incorrect use of conventional drugs for intestinal infections has led to the spread of bacterial resistance. Antimicrobial peptide Ctx(Ile21)-Ha has shown effective antimicrobial activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, direct oral application is not feasible due to gastrointestinal degradation. In this study, alginate microparticles loaded with Ctx(Ile21)-Ha peptide were designed to protect it and release it in the intestine, providing a potential solution for combating intestinal pathogens.

Summary: Skin inflammation is a common symptom of various skin diseases, and the use of natural products with anti-inflammatory properties has become important in its treatment. This study focuses on formulating and characterizing lipid-surfactant-based systems for the delivery of ursolic acid (UA) to alleviate skin inflammation. Microemulsions and liquid crystalline systems were successfully developed and characterized using various techniques. In vivo studies demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory effects of the formulated systems. These findings support the development of colloidal systems for the delivery of UA in the treatment of skin inflammation.

Summary: This study provides fundamental understanding of mucus-modulatory strategies using charged bio-polymers of different molecular weights and surface charges. Biophysical evidence supports that the interactions between low-molecular-weight polycation chitosan oligosaccharides (COSs) and high-molecular-weight polyanion dextran sulfate (DS) with mucin (MUC) exhibit distinct thermodynamic signatures. The results suggest that electrostatics is not the driving force governing COS-MUC interactions.

Summary: Cancer is a major global health problem and treatment remains challenging. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), especially superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION), have been applied for cancer treatment by guiding them to the tumor microenvironment through external magnetic fields and transforming electromagnetic energy into heat for hyperthermia treatment. The low stability of MNPs requires coating, and lipid-based nanoparticles, especially liposomes, have been used to encapsulate MNPs for improved stability as a cancer treatment approach.

Summary: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive type of primary brain tumor, accounting for approximately 60% of cases of gliomas. However, the treatment of GBM is challenging due to the presence of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which limits the delivery of therapeutic drugs to the brain parenchyma. Nanocarriers with nanometric size and surface modifications show promise in improving the bioavailability and targeting of chemotherapeutic drugs to GBM cells. This review provides an overview of the most frequently overexpressed receptors in GBM cells and potential strategies for chemotherapeutic delivery and active targeting using nanocarriers.

Summary: Breast cancer is the primary cause of cancer-related mortality in women and the fifth leading cause of cancer death overall. Biocompatible metal-organic frameworks (bioMOFs) show promise as efficient drug absorption and delivery platforms. A drug delivery system using bioMOF-101 materials, incorporating curcumin (CCM), was developed with enhanced targeting to the tumor region through folate coating. The study found promising results, with high encapsulation efficiency and no toxicity observed in in vitro tests, suggesting the potential of these matrices for breast cancer treatment.

Summary: Crosslinking affects the mechanical behavior and tissue metabolism of collagen-based tissues. Aging and diabetes alter the crosslinking type and density, thus changing tissue properties. High-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking and advanced-glycation end-products result in uniform deformation under daily activity, while low-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking does not. High-connectivity model displays more sliding, while AGEs induce instability in structures near the binding sites.
