A new generation of “theranostic” nanoparticles has been shown to both detect and reduce plaques in the arteries. Nanoparticles absorbed by immune cells in the arteries, where they work to lower ...

A team developed a nanoparticle technology that offers an effective solution to diagnose and treat atherosclerosis, in a non-invasive manner. Atherosclerosis is the build-up of plaque in the arteries ...

Scientists develop nanoparticles that detect and shrink arterial plaque by reducing inflammation and cholesterol, offering a new tool against heart disease. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at SAHMRI are ...

Theranostic nanomaterials, tiny particles that can diagnose and treat TBI, cross the blood-brain barrier to deliver drugs directly to damaged tissue while tracking treatment in real time. Traumatic ...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains one of the most pressing public health challenges, leaving millions with lasting disabilities each year. When the brain suffers a sudden impact, from a fall, ...
