High-fat diet (HFD) decreases insulin sensitivity. How high-fat diet causes insulin resistance
is largely unknown. Here, we show that lean mice become insulin resistant after being …

The ability of chitosan (CTS) to promote mucoadhesion, trigger positive/negative surface
interactions, and open tight junctions has inspired researchers to coat lipid-based and …

Due to complicated anatomical and physical properties, targeted drug delivery to ocular
tissues continues to be a key challenge for formulation scientists. Various attempts are …

Chitin, a polysaccharide that occurs abundantly in nature after cellulose, has attracted the
interest of the scientific community due to its plenty of availability and low cost. Mostly, it is …

Biomimetic has emerged as a multi-disciplinary science in several biomedical subjects in
recent decades, including biomaterials and dentistry. In restorative dentistry, biomimetic …
