Micelles of hyaluronic acid-hexadecylamine derivatives for ocular release of hydrophobic durgs
2016
The topical route is the ideal way to release drugs to the eye. Unfortunately, the low ocular drug bioavailability associated with this route of administration, makes not very efficient the treatment of several ocular diseases. Nowadays, polymeric micelles occupy a significant role in the field of ocular drug delivery thanks to the advantages that they offer in comparison with the administration of drugs in the free form. Indeed, polymeric micelles are suitable for delivering hydrophobic drugs and they seem to be very promising in ocular drug delivery for their high kinetic and thermodynamic stability. Also, micellar systems are able to give a controlled drug release and to act as absorptio…

Complement Protein C1q Binds to Hyaluronic Acid in the Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma Microenvironment and Promotes Tumor Growth
2017
C1q is the first recognition subcomponent of the complement classical pathway, which acts towards the clearance of pathogens and apoptotic cells. C1q is also known to modulate a range of functions of immune and non-immune cells, including their involvement in placental development and sensorial synaptic pruning. We have recently shown that C1q can promote tumour by encouraging their adhesion, migration and proliferation in addition to angiogenesis and metastasis. In this study, we have examined the role of C1q in the microenvironment of malignant pleuric mesothelioma (MPM), a rare form of cancer commonly associated with exposure to asbestos. We found that C1q was highly expressed in all MPM…
Hyaluronic Acid Present in the Tumor Microenvironment Can Negate the Pro-apototic Effect of a Recombinant Fragment of Human Surfactant Protein D on B…

Human surfactant protein D (SP-D) belongs to the family of collectins that is composed of a characteristic amino-terminal collagenous region and a carboxy-terminal C-type lectin domain. Being present at the mucosal surfaces, SP-D acts as is a potent innate immune molecule and offers protection against non-self and altered self-such as pathogens, allergens, and tumour. Here, we examined the effect of a recombinant fragment of human SP-D (rfhSP-D) on a range of breast cancer lines. Breast cancer has four molecular subtypes characterised by varied expression of oes…
