Evaluation of Anti-Stroke Drugs
Stroke, also known as transient ischemic attack or cerebrovascular accident, is an acute brain disease. Usually, a sudden rupture of a blood vessel in the brain or a blockage of a blood vessel that prevents blood from flowing to the brain can cause damage to brain tissue, resulting in a stroke. Long-term strokes can lead to brain damage, disability and even death. The brain serves as a ...

Pooled Human Cryopreserved Hepatocytes
Hepatocytes are the chief functional cells of the liver, responsible for the selective uptake, metabolism and excretion of most drugs. Cells for use in plate cultures or suspension assays represent a key tool for predicting properties such as hepatotoxicity, metabolism, and potential drug-drug interactions. Since these cells mimic the properties of the liver, researchers can evaluate the ...

Liposomes in Anti-tumour Drug Carriers
Introduction Chemotherapy with anti-tumor agents is currently one of the most important systemic treatments for cancer. However, direct treatment with drugs lacks specificity and sensitivity and tends to attack normal cells indiscriminately, resulting in side effects. Liposomes, as drug carriers, provide a superior solution for maintaining or enhancing the efficacy of chemotherapy while reducing ...
