Abstract

    Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory and autoimmune disease that describes the joints persistent inflammation and tendon sheets synovial lining. The primary symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis are stiffness, pain, and swelling of peripheral joints. Persistent inflammation results in many systemic and extra-articular manifestations involving many organ systems. Rheumatoid arthritis treatment goals ... Details

Abstract

    The bio/muco-adhesive auxiliary agents are considered as a promising strategy for the administration of various challenging drugs including peptides, proteins and oligosaccharides therapeutics. The delivery of such therapeutics is hampered due to rapid degradation, restricted uptake, short residence time, poor solubility and limited half-life. The recent emergence of nanomedicine based on bio/muco... Details

Abstract

    Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) belong to the fullerene family, also known as graphene. These graphenes are similar to the graphite sheets and when these are turn up in the cylindrical form they are known as carbon nanotubes. Currently, the most common methods used for CNTs preparation are: Electric-arc-discharge methods, Chemical-vapor-deposition method and Laserablation method. In order to cross the cel... Details

Abstract

    A multiple dose regimen is a concept that is used for certain diseases as arthritis, heart diseases etc. It is used to increase the therapeutic activity and clinical efficacy of the drugs. Drugs are usually used in single doses to produce acute effect but in cases where chronic affect is required multiple dosage regimen is required. Designing the dosage regimen and maintaining the drug concentrati... Details
