With its minimal rejection rate, remarkable ease of administration, and remarkable patient comfort and perseverance, the transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) is the most attractive of them all. The skincare industry, which includes cosmetics, may also find use for TDDS in addition to the pharmaceutical industry. As this strategy mainly entails local drug administration, it can prevent untargeted drug delivery to tissues not intended for the treatment and buildup of localized drug concentrations. Transdermal delivery is hampered by a number of physicochemical characteristics of the skin, which have led to a great deal of research into ways to get over these barriers. The majority of transdermal medicines that have proved effective do so by using smaller lipophilic compounds, which have a molecular weight of a few 100 Daltons. Transferosomes have proven to be an effective method for transdermal distribution of a range of therapies, including hydrophilic actives, bigger molecules, peptides, proteins, and nucleic acids, in order to get around the medications' size and lipophilicity limits. Because of their flexible form and increased surface hydrophilicity, transferosomes are essential for the delivery of medicines and other solutes through and into the skin by exploiting hydration gradients a source of energy. As a result, the medication is released into the skin layers under regulated conditions and has improved overall penetration. In this section we outline the development of transferosomes from liposomes and solid lipid nanoparticles, as well as their subsequent advancements as commercially available dosage forms, physical-chemical characteristics, and cutaneous kinetics.</p>","PeriodicalId":23985,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo ying yong sheng li xue za zhi = Zhongguo yingyong shenglixue zazhi = Chinese journal of applied physiology","volume":"40 ","pages":"e20240031"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142509341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effects of the extracts on rodents' ketamine-induced hyperactivity, amphetamine-induced stereotypy, forced swim test, conditioned avoidance response, and catalepsy were assessed. According to the findings, EECA and EECD both significantly outperformed typical antipsychotic medications in antipsychotic-like behaviours across a variety of behavioural paradigms. The extracts exhibited a 50-75% reduction in ketamine-induced hyperactivity, indicating a possible impact on glutamatergic signalling. Additionally, they greatly reduced amphetamine-induced stereotypy, suggesting a potential antagonistic interaction with the dopamine D2 receptor. Similar to haloperidol, EECD at 400 mg/kg dramatically decreased avoidance behaviour in the conditioned avoidance response test. Though less so than with haloperidol, both extracts caused catalepsy in rodents. The reversal of ketamine's effect in the forced swim test suggests that it may be effective in preventing psychosis's negative symptoms. Given that oxidative stress is a contributing factor to psychotic disorders, the antipsychotic effect of these extracts may be associated with their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant characteristics. These results bolster the long-standing usage of Crinum species in the treatment of mental illnesses and imply that they could be rich sources of new antipsychotic chemicals.

This review aims to compare the regulatory processes and requirements for generic drug approval in India, Europe, and the US, highlighting key differences and challenges. The involvement of regulatory authorities in the drug development process is crucial for expediting approval and addressing queries, helping to minimize delays. The Common Technical Document (CTD) format is employed across regions to harmonize submission requirements. This study underscores the differences in dossier submission for generics across the three regions, illustrating India's position in the global generic drug approval landscape. By comparing approval requirements, this work provides insight into the hurdles India must overcome to streamline its approval process. The ANDA allows generic manufacturers to submit bioequivalence studies, using the original innovator's safety and efficacy data. However, obtaining approval simultaneously from multiple regulatory authorities remains a challenging task. Careful review of regulatory documents by skilled personnel can reduce regulatory queries, ultimately accelerating the market launch of generic drugs.

The current review summarizes the complex relationships that exist between oxidative stress and tau illness, with particular attention to the roles played by the tau protein, reactive oxygen species and their consequences, and tau phosphorylation and oxidative stress. Two key elements of detrimental cycle that are critical in neurodegenerative tauopathies are tau hyperphosphorylation and oxidative stress. When tau and microtubules are not connected properly, microtubule instability, issues with microtubule transport, and ultimately neuronal death result. While the causes of the more prevalent sporadic late-onset variants and the connections between tau hyperphosphorylation and neurodegeneration remain largely unknown, mutations in the microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) gene have been identified in familial cases of early-onset tauopathies. Another detrimental feature of tauopathies is oxidative stress, but the exact role it plays in the development of the disease is unclear. The source of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which lead to oxidative stress within neural tissue, remains an unresolved topic. Although mitochondria have historically been thought to be a primary source of oxidative stress, microglial cells have recently been discovered to create reactive oxygen species in tauopathies. In conclusion, enhancing our comprehension of the impact of oxidative stress on various diseases could facilitate the identification of new disease markers and lead to the formulation of treatment strategies aimed at halting, reversing, or mitigating disease progression.</p>","PeriodicalId":23985,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo ying yong sheng li xue za zhi = Zhongguo yingyong shenglixue zazhi = Chinese journal of applied physiology","volume":"40 ","pages":"e20240028"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142393781","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
