Riluzole is commonly used as a neuroprotective agent for treating traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI), which works by blocking the influx of sodium and calcium ions reducing glutamate activity. However, its clinical application limited because poor solubility, short half-life, potential organ toxicity, insufficient bioabilities toward upregulated inflammation oxidative stress levels. To address this issue, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), natural polyphenol, was employed to fabricate nanoparticles (NPs) with riluzole enhance effects. The resulting NPs demonstrated good biocompatibility, excellent antioxidative properties, promising regulation effects from M1 M2 macrophages. Furthermore, an in vivo SCI model successfully established, could be obviously aggregated at site. More interestingly, properties through regulating levels stress, inflammation, ion channels fully RNA sequencing sophisticated biochemistry evaluations. Together, work provided new opportunities design fabrication robust multifunctional inflammation-related diseases via biological integration polyphenols small-molecule drugs.

Brain diseases including brain tumor, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's etc. are difficult to treat. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a major obstacle for drug delivery into the brain. Although nano-package and receptor-mediated of nanomedicine markedly increases BBB penetration, it yet did not extensively improve clinical cure rate. Recently, extracellular space (ECS) interstitial fluid (ISF) drainage in ECS have been found determine whether dissolved ISF can reach its target cells. Notably, an increase tortuosity associated with slower induced by accumulated harmful substances, such as: amyloid-beta (Aβ), α-synuclein, metabolic wastes, causes failure.The methods penetration efficacy nanomedicines across assessed.Invasive delivering via noninvasive near-infrared photo-sensitive may provide promising benefit patients disease.

Chronic skin exposure to external hostile agents (e.g., UV radiation, microorganisms, and oxidizing chemicals) may increase oxidative stress, causing damage aging. Because of their well-known skincare protective benefits, quercetin (Q) omega-3 fatty acids (ω3) have attracted the attention dermocosmetic pharmaceutical sectors. However, both bioactives inherent properties that limit efficient delivery. Therefore, nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) enriched PFC® hydrogels (HGs) been developed as a dual-approach vehicle for Q and/or ω3 topical administration improve bioactives’ stability permeation. Two NLC formulations were prepared with same composition but differing in surfactant (NLC1—soy lecithin poloxamer 407; NLC2—Tween® 80 dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate (DOSS)), which an impact on physicochemical therapeutic performance. Despite NLCs presenting high loading capacity, NLC2′s make them more suitable ensure longer colloidal stability. Additionally, NLC2 demonstrated sustained release, indicating higher bioactive storage while improving permeability. The occlusive effect NLCs-enriched HGs also has positive Q-loaded NLC2, or without ω3, -enriched efficacy antioxidant photoprotective well effective reduction S. aureus growth, they constitute promising approach prevent aging other damaging cutaneous processes.
