Understanding the Role of Delta-catenin in Virus-Positive Merkel Cell Carcinoma
Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) is a highly aggressive neuroendocrine skin cancer often driven by the integration of Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) into the host genome and the persistent expression of its viral oncoproteins, small tumor (ST) antigen and truncated large tumor (t-LT) antigen. However, …

Use of Aloe vera and Aloe marlothii materials as excipients in beads produced by extrusion–spheronization
Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is the most commonly used excipient in the manufacture of spherical particles or beads by extrusion spheronisation. However, the use of MCC in beads has its limitations such as prolonged release of drugs due to lack of disintegration. The aim of this study was to …
