Influence of Dietary Biosynthesized Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles on Broiler Zinc Uptake, Bone Quality, and Antioxidative Status

Hidayat Mohd Yusof et al.

Summary: Traditionally, higher levels of inorganic zinc (Zn) were added to broiler chicken diets to meet optimal body requirements, but this can lead to heavy metal contamination. Nanomaterial ZnO NPs have unique properties that increase nutrient utilization and improve broiler physiological function and production. This study found that dietary biosynthesized ZnO NPs increased Zn absorption in broiler chickens, improved tibia bone development, and enhanced antioxidative status in serum and liver tissue.

Anticancer properties of ZnO-Curcumin nanocomposite against melanoma cancer and its genotoxicity profiling

Shruti S. Deshpande et al.

Summary: In this study, chitosan-coated ZnO nanoparticles were used as a nanocarrier to enhance the bioavailability of curcumin. The synthesized ZnO-curcumin nanocomposite showed improved solubility, drug loading, entrapment, and drug release efficiencies. It exhibited biocompatibility towards normal cells and selectively toxic effects on melanoma cancer cells. The release of curcumin from the nanocomposite was facilitated by the acidic pH of the tumor microenvironment, leading to cell death through ROS production and apoptosis. In vivo studies confirmed the anticancer properties of ZnCurNC and showed reduced tumor volume. Safety profiles of ZnCurNC revealed no genotoxicity. Overall, this research highlights the potential of ZnCurNC as an effective and safe anticancer agent for melanoma treatment.

Protein corona formation on silver nanoparticles under different conditions

Aysel Tomak et al.

Summary: Nanoparticle surfaces can be covered by biomolecules, forming a protein 'corona' that alters the characteristics and biological activity of the materials. The composition of the protein corona is dynamic, with initially bound abundant biomolecules being replaced by less abundant but more tightly bound ones. This study investigated the formation of the silver nanoparticle protein corona in cell culture media and found that the physiological environment directly affects the formation of the corona. Differences in the amount of bound proteins were observed depending on incubation conditions.
