Multi-Faceted Anti-inflammatory Neuroprotective Nanoparticles for Treating Alzheimer’s Disease
Invention Summary:
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and a high mortality rate in the elderly. Current therapeutic strategies fall short in halting the underlying cognitive decline and nerve cell damage. The primary features of AD are the accumulation of extracellular amyloid plaques, uncontrolled...
