Evaluating the anticancer properties of liposomal copper in a nude xenograft mouse model of human prostate cancer: formulation, in vitro, in vivo, histology and tissue distribution studies.

Pharm. Res. 31(11) , 3106-19, (2014)

Although Cu complexes have been investigated as anticancer agents, there has been no description of Cu itself as a cancer killing agent. A stealth liposomal Cu formulation (LpCu) was studied in vitro ...

Rational Design of Photonic Dust from Nanoporous Anodic Alumina Films: A Versatile Photonic Nanotool for Visual Sensing.

Sci. Rep. 5 , 12893, (2015)

Herein, we present a systematic study on the development, optimisation and applicability of interferometrically coloured distributed Bragg reflectors based on nanoporous anodic alumina (NAA-DBRs) in t...

An orphan esterase ABHD10 modulates probenecid acyl glucuronidation in human liver.

Drug Metab. Dispos. 42(12) , 2109-16, (2014)

Probenecid, a widely used uricosuric agent, is mainly metabolized to probenecid acyl glucuronide (PRAG), which is considered a causal substance of severe allergic or anaphylactoid reactions. PRAG can ...
