Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death globally, responsible for millions of lives lost each year. As medical science advances, new avenues for treatment and prevention continue to emerge. One of the areas receiving increasing attention is the role of platelet activation proteins in combatting heart disease mortality. Understanding the function of these proteins in relation to blood clotting, inflammation, and cardiovascular health opens up new possibilities for reducing mortality from heart…

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating condition that affects millions worldwide, limiting mobility and causing chronic pain. While several treatment options exist, ranging from medications to surgical interventions, many patients continue to seek more effective and less invasive alternatives. Recently, innovations in biomaterials and regenerative medicine have opened up new possibilities for treating osteoarthritis. One such promising avenue is the use of injectable self-lubricating supramolecular polymer hydrogels loaded with platelet lysate. These advanced materials could…

Introduction In the ever-evolving field of medicine, the development of drug delivery systems that are both efficient and adaptable remains a priority. From the early days of oral and topical administration methods to the modern advancements in targeted therapy, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors have relentlessly pursued strategies to deliver therapeutic agents in a controlled and sustained manner. Among the cutting-edge developments, polymer-based drug delivery systems have garnered significant attention. Notably, implantable networks and…

Introduction Drug delivery has always been a cornerstone of medical science, determining the effectiveness of various treatments. The challenge of delivering drugs precisely to targeted sites without causing side effects has driven scientists to explore innovative solutions. One of the most promising avenues in modern medicine is the use of colloidal carriers for drug delivery. These carriers, which include micro and nanoparticles, micelles, and micro/nanogels, have the potential to revolutionize how we treat diseases…
