Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar levels. In recent years, T2DM has become a worldwide health issue due to an increase in incidence and prevalence. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is one of the devastating consequences of diabetes, especially owing to T2DM and the key clinical manifestation of DKD is weakened renal function and progressive proteinuria. DKD affects approximately 1/3r Read More

Controlled-release drug delivery systems (CRDDS) are more beneficial than conventional immediate release (IRDDS) for reduced intake, prolonged duration of action, lesser adverse effects, higher bioavailability, etc. The preparation of CRDDS is more complex than IRDDS. The hot melt extrusion (HME) technique is used for developing amorphous solid dispersion of poorly water soluble drugs to improve their dissolution rate and or Read More

Many brain diseases pose serious challenges to human life. Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and Parkinson's Disease (PD) are common neurodegenerative diseases that seriously threaten human health. Glioma is a common malignant tumor. However, drugs cannot cross physiological and pathological barriers and most therapeutic drugs cannot enter the brain because of the presence of the Blood-brain Barrier (BBB) and Bloodbrain Tu Read More

Chronic inflammation characterizes Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), encompassing Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Despite modest activity of disease in most UC patients, exacerbations occur, especially in those with severe symptoms, necessitating interventions, like colectomy. Current treatments for IBD, predominantly small molecule therapies, impose significant economic burdens. Drug repurposin Read More

Psoriasis (Pso) is an autoimmune inflammatory skin disease characterized by red plaques covered in silver scales. The existing treatments provide limited benefits and are associated with certain drawbacks which limit their use. Thus, there is a need to explore more options that are highly target-specific and associated with minimal side effects. Researchers have thoroughly investigated the use of herbal drugs for their ther Read More

A unique extreme acute breathing syndrome emerged in China and spread rapidly globally due to a newly diagnosed human coronavirus and declared a pandemic. COVID-19 was formally named by WHO, and the Global Committee on Taxonomy referred to it as extreme Acute respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Currently there is no efficient method to control the extent of SARS-CoV-2 other than social dista Read More

BackgroundEssential hypertension is a common clinical disease and a risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine, and hydrochlorothiazide are commonly used antihypertensive drugs. The aim of this study was to establish a robust UPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine, and hydrochlorothiazide in dog plasma. At th Read More
