Newest firstMaintaining a quiescent uterus until labor is of utmost importance for a successful pregnancy and still represents the most challenging issue in clinical practice. Despite the existence of standard approaches (short-term use of tocolytic agents or preventive use of vaginal progesterone), whose efficacy is still controversial, several natural molecules have garnered attention in recent years as an effective therape…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background/Objectives: This study presents the development and characterization of a novel thermoresponsive hydrogel composed of hyaluronic acid (HA), poloxamer 407, cannabidiol (CBD), and colloidal silver (Ag), designed for topical antimicrobial therapy. Methods: The Ag-CBD complex was first synthesized and subsequently incorporated into a HA-poloxamer gel matrix to produce a stable, sprayable formulation with su…
Enterococcus faecalis is a common cause of healthcare acquired bloodstream infections and catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) in both adults and children. Treatment of E. faecalis infection is frequently complicated by multi-drug resistance. Based on protein homology, E. faecalis encodes two putative hyaluronidases, EF3023 (HylA) and EF0818 (HylB). In other Gram-positive pathogens, hyaluronidases…
Nanoemulsion systems receive a significant amount of interest nowadays due to their promising potential in biomedicine and food technology. Using a two-step process, we produced a series of nanoemulsion systems with different concentrations of hemp seed oil (HSO) stabilized with Aesculus hippocastanum L. extract (AHE). Water and commercially-available low-concentrated hyaluronic acid (HA) were used as the liquid p…
The demonstrated expression of endocannabinoid receptors in myofascial tissue suggested the role of fascia as a source and modulator of pain. Fibroblasts can modulate the production of the various components of the extracellular matrix, according to type of stimuli: physical, mechanical, hormonal, and pharmacological. In this work, fascial fibroblasts were isolated from small samples of human fascia lata of the th…
Most medications targeting optic neuropathies are administered as eye drops. However, their corneal penetration efficiencies are typically < 5%. There is a clear, unmet need for novel transcorneal drug delivery vehicles. To this end, we have developed a stimulus-responsive, in situ-forming, nanoparticle-laden hydrogel for controlled release of poorly bioavailable drugs into the aqueous humor of the eye. The hydrog…
