Thymoquinone, as a Novel Therapeutic Candidate of Cancers
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
To date, natural products are widely used as pharmaceutical agents for many human
diseases and cancers. One of the most popular natural products that have been studied for anticancer
properties is thymoquinone (TQ). As ...

© 2020 The Author(s). Published by IOP Publishing Ltd on behalf of the Institute of Physics and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft. DNA detection has revolutionized medical and biological research fields. It provides a ...
Design of Nanoparticulate Group 2 Influenza Virus Hemagglutinin Stem Antigens That Activate Unmutated Ancestor B Cell Receptors of Broadly Neutralizing Antibody Lineages.
(
American Society for Microbiology
, 2019 , Article)
Influenza vaccines targeting the highly conserved stem of the hemagglutinin (HA) surface glycoprotein have the potential to protect against pandemic and drifted seasonal influenza viruses not covered by current vaccines. ...
Mosaic nanoparticle display of diverse influenza virus hemagglutinins elicits broad B cell responses.
(
Nature Research
, 2019 , Article)
The present vaccine against influenza virus has the inevitable risk of antigenic discordance between the vaccine and the circulating strains, which diminishes vaccine efficacy. This necessitates new approaches that provide ...
Strength optimisation of mortar with CNTs and nanoclays
(
Thomas Telford Services Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This study explores the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nanoclays in cement mortars. The paper presents modelling and optimisation of the compressive and flexural strengths of cement mortars containing CNTs and the ...
Neutralization of MERS coronavirus through a scalable nanoparticle vaccine
(
Springer Nature
, 2021 , Article)
MERS-CoV continues to cause human outbreaks, so far in 27 countries worldwide following the first registered epidemic in Saudi Arabia in 2012. In this study, we produced a nanovaccine based on virus-like particles (VLPs). ...
Electroactive and Optically Adaptive Bionanocomposite for Reconfigurable Microlens
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
This paper introduces an electroactive bionanocomposite based on poly(diethylene glycol adipate) (PDEGA) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). The bionanocomposites were made using CNCs extracted from cotton and by optimizing ...
Soft-shear induced phase-separated nanoparticle string-structures in polymer thin films
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
Application of shear stress has been shown to unidirectionally orient the microstructures of block copolymers and polymer blends. In the present work, we study the phase separation of a novel nanoparticle (NP)-polymer blend ...
Streamlined Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles with Tunable Curvature from Interfacial Dynamic-Migration Strategy for Nanomotors
(
American Chemical Society
, 2021 , Article)
Streamlined architectures with a low fluid-resistance coefficient have been receiving great attention in various fields. However, it is still a great challenge to synthesize streamlined architecture with tunable surface ...
Nanotoxicology of dendrimers in the mammalian heart: Ex vivo and in vivo administration of g6 pamam nanoparticles impairs recovery of cardiac function following ischemia-reperfusion injury
(
Dove Medical Press Ltd.
, 2020 , Article)
Aim: The effects of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers on the mammalian heart are not completely understood. In this study, we have investigated the effects of a sixth-generation cationic dendrimer (G6 PAMAM) on cardiac ...
