The analytical power and versatility of current laser-based flow cytometry systems have strengthened relatively new fields of research, such as nanotechnology. Flow cytometry has proven to be a very powerful technique for investigating cellular events related to cancer, such as oxidative stress, autophagy, changes in the cell cycle and apoptosis. In the cellular uptake process, it can be …
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive and prevalent variation of glioma. The first choice treatment is temozolamide (TMZ), an alkylating agent administered orally or intravenously. However, the drug has some limitations, such as the difficulty in crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the cellular efflux mechanism resistance. As a consequence, the survival rate of pati…
Candida albicans is the most prevalent yeast in vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) episodes. Currently, the available therapy for this infection involves the administration of drugs, however, several resistance cases has been observed. Due to these factors, the search for new sources of antifungal molecules, among them, the natural products derivatives is in expansion. The hypericin (HIP) is …

Current anticancer therapies often demonstrate reduced safety and efficacy, so the development of new therapeutic approaches to cancer has been the goal of much research. In this context, activation of the host immune system against tumor antigens has received special attention as it represents a significantly safer and more effective alternative than chemotherapy and other conventional c…

Worldwide, colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, with high incidence rates. The conventional treatment for CRC is intravenous chemotherapy, which typically presents limited bioavailability, nonspecific biodistribution, adverse effects, and therapeutic resistance by patients. Camptothecin (CPT) is an alkaloid with known antineoplastic action on CRC;…
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by genetic mutations in cells, leading to the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. Among the most common types, colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third in global cancer-related deaths and is one of the five most diagnosed cancers worldwide. The conventional treatment for CRC is intravenous therapy; however, the lack of drug specificity can result …
Glioblastoma multiforme is considered the most aggressive type of brain tumor and presents limitations in conventional therapies, due to the difficulty of drugs in crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB), requiring high doses to obtain the therapeutic effect, and thus contributing to the occurrence of numerous adverse effects. Temozolomide is the gold standard chemotherapy drug for treatme…

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by a progressive cognitive decline and represents a significant concern for public health worldwide, predominating as the leading cause of dementia among the elderly and encompassing 60 to 80% of all dementia cases worldwide. Current pharmacological therapies act only on symptoms, leaving gaps in the effective treatment of the condition, which mot…
Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third in terms of global cancer-related deaths, being one of the five most diagnosed types of cancer worldwide. The therapeutic management of this condition must be carried out under careful analysis since currently, available therapeutic measures can negatively impact the patient's quality of life. 5-fluorouracil (5-FLU) is the drug of choice for the treatme…
Arboviruses are diseases transmitted by hematophagous arthropods, especially the Aedes genus. In Brazil, in the first three months of 2024, 1,433,467 cases of dengue and 62,105 of Chikungunya have already been confirmed. As neglected diseases have difficult access to specific treatment, the use of repellents is described as the best form of prevention. Formulations with synthetic active r…

Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's,share the common feature of pathological protein aggregation that becomes toxic to braintissue, leading to cell death. While in Alzheimer's, beta-amyloid (¿A) and Tau proteinsaggregate in insoluble amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, in Parkinson'sdisease (PD) alpha-synuclein (aSyn), a presynaptic neur…
Arboviruses are diseases transmitted by hematophagous arthropods, especially the Aedes genus. As neglected diseases have difficulty accessing specific treatment, the use of repellents is described as the best form of prevention. Formulations with synthetic active repellents are widespread on the market. However, they can create risks for the user, as well as damage the environment. In add…
Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third in global cancer-related deaths and is one of the five most commonly diagnosed types of cancer worldwide. 5-fluorouracil (5-FLU) is the drug of choice for the treatment of CRC; however, it presents unstable absorption in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), problems related to its high hydrophilicity, short plasma half-life, and variation in its pharmacoki…

Postbiotics are substances released or produced by the metabolic activity of microorganisms, which exert a beneficial effect on the host, directly or indirectly, and may include many different constituents, in which short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) stand out. due to their excellent anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties in combating prevalent intestinal diseases, however, SCFAs h…
Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) characterized by chronic inflammation without cure in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), mainly in the colon. Treatment focuses on controlling the disease, preventing recurrence, and improving the patient's quality of life. Mesalazine (MLZ) is the drug of first choice for the treatment of IBD but has lim…
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most frequent and most aggressive Central Nervous System (CNS) cancer. Temozolomide (TMZ), the first-line drug for the treatment of GBM, has clinical efficacy, but treatment with this drug is associated with the development of resistance in more advanced stages of the disease, in addition to the fact that TMZ has physical-chemical limitations that hind…
