Non-Invasive Strategy Delivers Nanoparticles to the Brain nanoparticles nanomedicine nanotechnology
Sep 29 2022Reviewed by Skyla Baily Brain stimulation paired with a nose spray comprised of nanoparticles can increase recovery after ischemic stroke in an animal model, according to scientists from Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University and other universities in China.
After an ischemic stroke, rats administered a combination of nanoparticle and TMS treatment every 24 hours for 14 days had improved health, gained weight faster, and enhanced cognitive and motor abilities when compared to those treated with TMS alone. From Impossible to Possible The study solves a major question in nanomedicine: Is it possible to improve TMS by delivering nanoparticles into the brain non-invasively? Top experts have previously said that it was nearly impossible due to the blood-brain barrier. This physical barrier divides the brain from the rest of the bloodstream in the body.
