Ovarian cancer is considered a predominant female reproductive malignancy and poses a significant threat due to its 80-90% fatality rate. The typical approach involves surgery and chemotherapy, which due to problems such as drug resistance,…
OBJECTIVE: One of the challenges in gene therapy is the transfer of the gene to the target cell. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression after transcription by binding directly to the messenger and play a vital role in cell behaviors an…
Abstract Study question Is effective miRNA 503 conjugation with PLGA nanoparticle in apoptosis of human endometriosis cells? Summary answer Cell death increased with increasing the concentration of miRNA; thus, it can be suggested as a trea…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. The main causes of MS disease progression, demyelination, and tissue damage are oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Hence, the latte…
The integration of multiple therapeutic and diagnostic functions into a single nanoplatform for image-guided cancer therapy has been an emerging trend in nanomedicine. We show here that multifunctional theranostic nanostructures consisting …
Nanoparticles (NPs) have many toxic effects on fertility and can prevent successful implantation by affecting the maternal uterine tissue. Herein, by deploying 30 female NMRI mice, the effect of silver NPs on the endometrium and implantatio…
Although multimodal cancer therapy has shown superior antitumor efficacy in comparison to individual therapy due to the potential generation of synergistic interactions among the treatments, its clinical usage is highly hampered by systemic…
In this article, we report a targeted cancer treatment strategy using nano-photo-thermal therapy (NPTT) and radiotherapy (RT) methods. Gold nanorods (AuNRs) without and with folic acid (FA) conjugation were firstly synthesized and then char…
