Self-assembled amphiphilic N-(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-chitosan-cholic acid (DHP-CS-CHO) micelle was prepared as a carrier for paclitaxel. DHP-CS-CHO was synthesized by grafted small molecules cholic acid and glycidol onto primary amine group of chitosan, respectively. The DHP-CS-CHO formed uniform micelles (size=212.4±3.1 nm) with a

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, one of the most prevalent liver disorders in Western countries, is characterized by hepatic accumulation of triglycerides. Bile acids have long been known to affect triglyceride homeostasis through a not completely understood mechanism. To analyse the

New breads fortified with two different forms of grape by-products, namely dried powdered skins (PGP) and freeze-dried extract therefrom (EGP), were characterised and their protective effect against hypercholesterolaemia in rats was studied. The phenolic compound profiles of supplemented breads were
To develop a feasible and efficient nanocarrier for potential clinical application, a series of photo and redox dual responsive reversibly cross-linked micelles have been developed for the targeted anticancer drug delivery. The nanocarrier can be cross-linked efficiently via a clean
Post-operative increases in circulating bile acids have been suggested to contribute to the metabolic benefits of bariatric surgery; however, their mechanistic contributions remain undefined. We have previously reported that ileal interposition (IT) surgery delays the onset of type 2 diabetes
