Paeonol – an actor against cancer related inflammation (CRI)

In mouse melanoma cells paeonol had an effect on cell proliferation, apoptosis and the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines, like TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and TGF-β. In vivo the results showed an attenuation of lung metastases accompanied by a downregulation of proinflammatory cytokines in the serum. The authors indicate that the anti-tumor activity of this compound is […]

Zinc oxide

Hatamie A et al. showed that a ZnO-based textile has photocatalytic and antibacterial activities. In addition the textile exhibited a promising sensing response. The modified textile was created by direct in situ growth of vertically aligned one-dimensional ZnO NRs onto textile surfaces. The effects provided by ZnO are a new approach to create smart textiles: […]
