Silver nanoparticles reduce brain inflammation and related neurotoxicity through induction of H2S-synthesizing enzymes
Silver nanoparticles (AgNP) are known to penetrate into the brain and cause neuronal death. However, there is a paucity in studies examining the effect of AgNP on the resident immune cells of the brain, microglia. Given microglia are implicated in neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's...
