de Barros D, Fonseca L, Goncalves L, Serrano D, Oliva A
Pharmaceutics . 2024 Jun; 16(6). PMID: 38931876
Biodegradable aliphatic polyester formulations as carriers for topical drug delivery show the potential to encapsulate structurally different therapeutic compounds. Poly(octamethylene suberate) (POS) nanoparticles (POS-NPs) were used as a matrix to...

de Barros D, Santos R, Reed P, Fonseca L, Oliva A
Molecules . 2022 Dec; 27(24). PMID: 36557947
The biological activity of natural plant-oil-based nanostructured lipid carriers (NPO-NLCs) can be enhanced by the encapsulation of bioactive compounds, and they in turn can improve topical delivery of the drugs....

Oliveira S, Sarmento E, Marinho V, Pereira R, Fonseca L, Ferreira I
Molecules . 2022 Aug; 27(16). PMID: 36014427
This work developd nanomaterials formulated from annatto seed oily extract (ASE), myristic acid (tetradecanoic acid), and their fatty acid esters. The annatto seed oily extract was obtained using only soybean...

da Cunha B, Zoio P, Fonseca L, Calado C
Antibiotics (Basel) . 2021 Jun; 10(5). PMID: 34065815
There are two main strategies for antibiotic discovery: target-based and phenotypic screening. The latter has been much more successful in delivering first-in-class antibiotics, despite the major bottleneck of delayed Mechanism-of-Action...

da Cunha B, Fonseca L, Calado C
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol . 2021 Jan; 105(3):1269-1286. PMID: 33443637
The low rate of discovery and rapid spread of resistant pathogens have made antibiotic discovery a worldwide priority. In cell-based screening, the mechanism of action (MOA) is identified after antimicrobial...
