• Sommario/riassunto: Tuer quelqu’un, ou l’absolue transgression : l’Antiquité grecque, une fois de plus, nous parle. Le parricide Oreste subit les assauts des impitoyables Érinyes. Dans la plaine de Troie, Achille et Hector, tueurs héroïques, sont portés par un instinct de mort qui a pour nom Arès. Aux rives de la mer Noire, vers 400 avant J.-C., les rescapés de l’armée des Dix Mille prennent part à une mystérieuse cérémonie de purification. Ailleurs, l’orateur Antiphon agite une étrange croyance : la souillure de l’homicide se répandrait partout, le fantôme de la victime criant vengeance. Et, dans un coin de la Sicile, la magie de rituels curieux chasserait les démons du meurtre. L’Athènes démocratique, inventive, n’est pas en reste ; ici, elle laisse s’exiler l’assassin, s’il le ; veut, avant même la fin de son procès ; là, elle promulgue une loi encourageant l’assassinat de quelque apprenti tyran qui menacerait son existence. Mais Aristote met en garde : l’homicide constitue en toute circonstance, sans exception, une faute. Littérature, histoire, droit, philosophie, anthropologie contribuent à cette étude approfondie des représentations, lato sensu, de la mort violente chez les Grecs. Le tableau d’ensemble est, pourrait-on dire, versicolore. Versicolores, aussi, les paroles ailées de l’immortel Homère, pour l’instant fatal où le guerrier s’effondre : « La mort rouge et le puissant destin se sont emparés de ses yeux ».

PLGA Based Drug Carrier and Pharmaceutical Applications

• Sommario/riassunto: Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) is one of the most successful polymers used for producing therapeutic devices, such as drug carriers (DC). PLGA is one of the few polymers that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved for human administration due to its biocompatibility and biodegradability. In recent years, DC produced with PLGA has gained enormous attention for its versatility in transporting different type of drugs, e.g., hydrophilic or hydrophobic ; small molecules, or macromolecules with a controlled drug release without modifying the physiochemical properties of the drugs. These drug delivery systems have the possibility/potential to modify their surface properties with functional groups, peptides, or other coatings to improve the interactions with biological materials. Furthermore, they present the possibility to be conjugated with specific target molecules to reach specific tissues or cells. They are also used for different therapeutic applications, such as in vaccinations, cancer treatment, neurological disorder treatment, and as anti-inflammatory agents. This book aims to focus on the recent progress of PLGA as a drug carrier and their new pharmaceutical applications.
