Nanoparticles Used To Deliver Treatment For Brain, Spinal Cord Injuries

Researchers have developed a method of using nanoparticles to deliver treatments to injured brain and spinal cord cells. Scientists coated silica nanoparticles with a polymer to target and repair injured guinea pig spinal cords. They then used the coated nanoparticles to deliver both the polymer and hydralazine to cells with secondary damage from a naturally produced toxin.
