Figure Lengend Snippet: X-ray radiographic of ankle joints of hind legs from different animal groups. Negative control rats show a normal structure of the joint; the Positive control group shows the induced arthritis with swelling of soft tissue on the hind paw (red circle), joint destruction, bone erosion, and deformities. Abbreviations: GI (healthy negative control), GII (RA model, untreated), GIII (treated with Naringin gel containing 2% w/w HPMC), GIV (treated with Naringin-loaded terpesomes in gel with 2% w/w HPMC), and GV (treated with Naringin-loaded terpesomes incorporated in Hyaluronic acid microneedles).

Figure Lengend Snippet: (a)Immunohistochemical photomicrographs of lung sections stained for Transforming Growth Factor-Beta (TGF-β) expression in different groups. Severe positive TGF-β expression is indicated in neoplastic cells (arrows). Group assignments: GI (healthy negative control), GII (RA model, untreated), GIII (treated with Naringin gel containing 2% w/w HPMC), GIV (treated with Naringin-loaded terpesomes in gel with 2% w/w HPMC), and GV (treated with Naringin-loaded terpesomes incorporated in Hyaluronic acid microneedles).
