Astrocytes Are More Vulnerable than Neurons to Silicon Dioxide Nanoparticle Toxicity in Vitro

Astrocytes Are More Vulnerable than Neurons to Silicon Dioxide Nanoparticle Toxicity in Vitro

Some studies have shown that silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO<sub>2</sub>-NPs) can reach different regions of the brain and cause toxicity; however, the consequences of SiO<sub>2</sub>-NPs exposure on the diverse brain cell lineages is limited. We aimed to investigate the n...
