Iron oxide nanoparticles may damage to the neural tissue through iron accumulation, oxidative stress, and protein aggregation
Abstract Background In the recent decade, iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have been proposed for several applications in the central nervous system (CNS), including targeting amyloid beta (Aβ) in the arteries, inhibiting the microglial cells, delivering drugs, and increasing contrast in magnetic re...
