Nanoparticles On My Mind
By KIM BELLARD Nanoparticles are everywhere!  By that I mean, of course, that there seems to be a lot of news about them lately, particularly in regard to health and healthcare.   But, of course, literally they could be anywhere and everywhere, which helps account for their potential, and their potential danger. Let’s start with one of the more startling developments: a team at the University of Miami’s College of Engineering, led by Professor Sakhrat Khizroev, believes it has figured out a way to use nanoparticles to “talk” to the brain without wires or implants.  They use “a novel clas...

Determination of the melting temperature of spherical nanoparticles in dilute solution as a function of their radius by exclusively using the small-angle X-ray scattering technique
In this investigation the dependence on radius of the melting temperature of dilute sets of spherical nanocrystals with wide radius distributions was determined by a novel procedure exclusively using the results of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements. This procedure is based on the sensitivity of the SAXS function to small and rather sharp variations in the size and electron density of nanocrystals at their melting temperature. The input for this procedure is a set of experimental SAXS intensity functions at selected q values for varying sample temperatures. In practice, the sample is heated from a minimum tem...

Evaluation of the effect of guanabenz-loaded nanoparticles on chronic toxoplasmosis in mice
Exp Parasitol. 2023 Jan 12:108460. doi: 10.1016/j.exppara.2023.108460. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChronic toxoplasmosis which is positively correlated with many neuropsychiatric problems has no curative treatment till now; due to the resistant tissue cysts especially in the brain. In search of an effective treatment guanabenz-loaded polyethylene glycol poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PEG-PLGA) nanoparticles was evaluated against chronic experimental toxoplasmosis. For this purpose, each mouse was infected with 10 cysts of Toxoplasma gondii (ME 49 strain). Treated mice received either guanabenz alone (5 mg/kg/day) in subgr...

Rare-earth nanoparticles induce depression, anxiety-like behavior, and memory impairment in mice
Food Chem Toxicol. 2021 Jul 28:112442. doi: 10.1016/j.fct.2021.112442. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRare-earth nanoparticles have been widely studied for disease diagnosis, in vivo optical imaging, biosensing, and drug delivery. However, the effects of rare-earth nanoparticles on a central nervous system remain unclear. Here, we report that the continuous exposure to rare-earth nanoparticles in mice can cause behavioral alterations including cognitive deficits, anxiety, and depression-like behavior. Using an open-field test and a morris water maze, we showed that long-term exposure to rare-earth nanoparticles may lead to ...

Evaluation of the Therapeutic Effect of Curcumin-Conjugated Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles on Reserpine-Induced Depression in Wistar Rats
In conclusion, curcumin-conjugated zinc oxide nanoparticles demonstrate potent antidepressant effects, alleviating depressive-like behavior in rats. These findings support Zn(cur)O NPs as a promising therapeutic strategy for depression management, warranting further investigation and clinical validation.PMID:37713054 | DOI:10.1007/s12011-023-03849-z
