1.	Infections 03/23/2016 - "The present study investigates the capacity of two clay nanoparticles (NPs) with opposite surface charges, namely synthetic layered double hydroxide (LDH) and hectorite (HEC) NPs as adjuvants to promote strong immune responses against the infections. "
2.	Carcinogenesis 01/01/2023 - "Microarray analysis showed that FGF19, TGM2, and SERPINA3, whose expression is reportedly increased in colon cancer tissues and is related to tumorigenesis or metastasis, were upregulated in HT-29 spheroids formed using synthetic hectorite compared with those in control spheroids. "
3.	Colorectal Neoplasms (Colorectal Cancer) 01/01/2023 - "A novel application of hectorite nanoclay for preparation of colorectal cancer spheroids with malignant potential."
4.	Neoplasm Metastasis (Metastasis) 01/01/2023 - "Microarray analysis showed that FGF19, TGM2, and SERPINA3, whose expression is reportedly increased in colon cancer tissues and is related to tumorigenesis or metastasis, were upregulated in HT-29 spheroids formed using synthetic hectorite compared with those in control spheroids. "
5.	Inflammation (Inflammations) 04/01/2004 - "Extracts of the low aluminium clays (montmorillonite and hectorite) did not prevent DQ12 induced haemolysis, although the hectorite extract did prevent inflammation. "
