Role of nanocarrier-based inhalation L-type calcium channel modulators with antioxidant role to support cardiac myocyte
18 Nov 2021In India, over 80% of cardiovascular disease (CVD) deaths result from ischemic heart disease and stroke. Here, Radhakrishnan et al., describe their study aiming to develop nanoparticle-based inhalational L-type calcium channel modulators to support the failing cardiac myocyte. Download now to discover how the study provides proof of concept for an innovative, safe, and efficient personalized inhalational medicine for a failing heart that is designed to prevent the progression of heart failure.

Cellular PathologyCellular Pathology deals with the microscopic analysis of tissue samples and cells. Sample preparation and processing includes fixation, staining, sectioning and slide mounting, using equipment such microtomes and cryostats. In choosing immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry kits, consider chromogens, staining method, antibodies, microscopes and imaging.Biopharmaceutical AdvancesBiopharmaceutical advances follow the development of pharmaceuticals derived from biotechnology, also known as biotechnology medicines. Biopharmaceuticals may be produced from cell lines, plants, or microbial cells. Important considerations of biopharmaceutical use include application, cost, production process and purification.Drug DeliveryDrug Delivery refers to dosage form, route of administration, formulations, technologies, and systems for transporting a pharmaceutical compound in the body as needed to safely achieve its desired therapeutic effect. Drug delivery is often approached via the biopharmaceutical or small molecule drug's formulation, but it may also involve medical devices or drug-device combination products. Considerations include instrumentation, software and services. NanotechnologyNanotechnology, or nanotech, is an engineering technique using molecular scale functional systems. Applications of nanotechnology include medicine and medical devices, electronics, air and water purification, food science and energy production.Personalized medicinePersonalized medicine refers to the idea of customized healthcare, where medical decisions and treatments are tailored to the individual patient. Molecular diagnostics, companion diagnostics and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) play a pivotal role in this approach.BiopharmaceuticalsBiopharmaceuticals are proteins and other compounds (such as nucleic acids) produced by living organisms that have uses as therapeutics or for in vivo diagnostics. The most well known example of a biopharmaceutical product, and the first to be approved for therapeutic use, was recombinant human insulin.Heart AttackCardiovascular DiseaseCardiovascular disease refers to a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels, including heart attacks, strokes, and high blood pressure. Early diagnosis and effective treatment are essential for improving patient outcomes.
