Efficacy of Camel Whey Protein and Camel Whey Protein Nanoparticles for Treating Intra-bony Periodontal Defects
Sponsor: Kafrelsheikh University
Summary
Intraosseous bone defects (IOBDs) are a significant challenge in the treatment of periodontal disease. Several bone graft materials can be used for bone defect regeneration. Camel whey protein (CWP) has emerged as a promising alternative due to its unique properties, including: High biological value containing essential amino acids, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects. However, the therapeutic application of CWP for bone regeneration can be limited by its solubility and bioavailability . Nanoparticles offer a novel approach to enhance drug delivery and improve therapeutic efficacy. Introduction of bone grafts in the form of nanoparticles was found to improve the bioactivity and biocompatibility of artificial bone graft. Nanoparticles (NPs) can efficiently enter biological organisms due to their very tiny size. The ability of NPs to easily pass through even the smallest blood capillaries and escape being phagocytized due to their small size (1-100 nm) extends their plasma half-life and permits a more progressive release of the medication. Nanoparticles have quicker absorption and a relatively greater drug loading arise from interactions at the surface. NPs increased antibacterial action may be attributed to their huge surface area and high charge density, which allows them to interact with the negatively charged surface of bacterial cells
