A calcium phosphate drug carrier loading with 5-fluorouracil achieving a synergistic effect for pancreatic cancer therapy

Junzong Chen et al.

Summary: In this study, amino-capped polyamidoamine dendrimer was used as a macromolecular template to form amino-modified calcium phosphate hollow sphere for drug delivery application. The system loaded with 5-fluorouracil performed synergistic cancer chemotherapy by inducing calcium overload and reactive oxygen species accumulation in cancer cells, leading to apoptosis. The delivery system showed high tumor inhibition via chemotherapy with minimal impact on normal cells and organs, demonstrating good biocompatibility.

Anti-Oxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Astaxanthin on Gastrointestinal Diseases

Jaeeun Lee et al.

Summary: A moderate amount of ROS plays an important role in cell signaling and immune response, while excessive production can lead to inflammation and pathological conditions. The gastrointestinal mucosa is continuously exposed to ROS, increasing the risk of GI disorders. AST, a compound with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, has shown protective effects against GI diseases through various mechanisms, including ROS neutralization, enhancement of antioxidant enzyme activity, and suppression of inflammation.
