Smart Drug Delivery Tech May Help Treat Neurological Disorders – Technology Networks
A team of researchers has created a smart drug delivery technology that reduces inflammation in damaged nervous tissues. The delivery system could be used to help treat spinal cord injuries and other neurological disorders.
A Rutgers-led team has created a smart drug delivery system that reduces inflammation in damaged nervous tissues and may help treat spinal cord injuries and other neurological disorders.
The system, which uses extremely thin biomaterials implanted in the body, also protects nerve fibers (axons) that connect nerve cells in injured neural tissues, according to a study in the journal Advanced Materials.
Inflammation typically is a major factor during recovery from central nervous system diseases …
