Catalytic nanoceria are preferentially retained in the rat retina and are not cytotoxic after intravitreal injection.
Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria) possess catalytic and regenerative radical scavenging activities. The ability of nanoceria to maintain cellular redox balance makes them ideal candidates for treatment of retinal diseases whose development is tightly associated with oxidative damage. We have de...
