Cyclodextrin-based materials for pulmonary delivery: Insights and challenges
The literature provides a large range of information on the manufacturing of CD-based materials for pulmonary delivery, the characterization of
Cyclodextrin Complexes: A New Hope Against Atherosclerosis
Recently, increasing evidence shows that cyclodextrins have an inhibitory effect against atherosclerosis, a chronic disease inducing atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVDs).
A Piezoelectric and Suture-Free Cardiac Patch Assembled by all FDA-approved Materials Achieves a Minimally Invasive Gene Therapy
Balancing biosafety with multifunctionality remains a critical challenge in biopatch development, impeding clinical translation. This study introduces a minimally invasive
The revival of cyclodextrins as active pharmaceutical ingredients
Discovered in 1891, cyclodextrins, derived from starchy food, have found many applications in the cosmetic, agriculture, food and pharmaceutical industries
Serum-free media
Albumin is a crucial component of serum-free media, playing a significant role in ex vivo cell culture as a lipid carrier
Supramolecular polyrotaxane-based nano-theranostics enable cancer-cell stiffening for enhanced T-cell-mediated anticancer immunotherapy
Redox-responsive Methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MeβCD)-based supramolecular polyrotaxanes (MSPs) were fabricated: the amphiphilic diselenide-bridged axle polymer was loaded by MeβCD via the host-guest
