CARDIOPROTECTIVE EFFECT OF AESCIN ON ANTIOXIDANT AND LIPID PROFILE IN ISOPROTERENOL-INDUCED MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION IN RATS
The efficacy of aescin on the liver and cardiac markers, lipid profile, and antioxidant status in rats with myocardial infarction (MI) induced by isoproterenol (ISO) was investigated in this study. Three doses of aescin (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg of b.w) were administered to rats for the first 21 days. After the treatment period, ISO (60 mg/kg of b.w) was given subcutaneously to the rats on the 22nd and...

DEVELOPMENT AND EVALUATION OF PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE COMPLEXES OF ARBUTIN AS SKIN WHITENING AGENT
Introduction: Disorders of hyperpigmentation are difficult to treat, particularly in dark skin individuals. There is a dramatic enhancement of skin permeability of phytoconstituents due to their complexation with phospholipids. Complexation leads to better permeation through the skin, which is otherwise not possible. Research work focused on the development and evaluation of phos-phatidylcholine c...

DEVELOPMENT AND EVALUATION OF PEPTIDE LOADED MUCOADHESIVE MICROSPHERES: IN AN EFFORT TO IMPROVE NASAL BIOAVAILABILITY OF PEPTIDE
The nasal drug delivery system has been a promising route for delivery of proteins and peptides as it can avoid degradation in the gastrointestinal tract and metabolism by liver enzymes. However, due to the rapid mucociliary clearance, the bioavailability of proteins and peptides is still low. Hence, mucoadhesive microspheres may prolong the residence time of peptide drugs in nasal cavity and impr...
