Journal ArticleDOI

Edible ginger-derived nanoparticles: A novel therapeutic approach for the prevention and treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and colitis-associated cancer.

TL;DR: GDNPs 2, nanoparticles derived from edible ginger, represent a novel, natural delivery mechanism for improving IBD prevention and treatment with an added benefit of overcoming limitations such as potential toxicity and limited production scale that are common with synthetic nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Edible Ginger-derived Nano-lipids Loaded with Doxorubicin as a Novel Drug-delivery Approach for Colon Cancer Therapy.

TL;DR: A nanovector made from ginger-derived lipids that can serve as a delivery platform for the therapeutic agent doxorubicin (Dox) to treat colon cancer and was capable of loading Dox with high efficiency and showed a better pH-dependent drug-release profile than commercially available liposomal-Dox.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoparticles with surface antibody against CD98 and carrying CD98 small interfering RNA reduce colitis in mice

TL;DR: Nanoparticles containing surface CD98 antibody and loaded with siCD98 reduce expression of this protein by colonic epithelial cells and macrophages, and oral administration decreases the severity of colitis in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combination Therapy for Ulcerative Colitis: Orally Targeted Nanoparticles Prevent Mucosal Damage and Relieve Inflammation.

TL;DR: This study shows the promising capability of the co-delivered siCD98 and CUR for boosting the conventional monotherapy via this novel nanotherapeutic agent, which offers a structurally simple platform for orally administered delivery of drugs to target cells in UC therapy.
