TL;DR: Oral treatment of APPswe/PS1dE9 mice with EGCG/AA NPs resulted in a marked increase in synapses, as judged by synaptophysin (SYP) expression, and reduction of neuroinflammation as well as amyloid &bgr; (A&b gr;) plaque burden and cortical levels of soluble and insoluble A&b Gr;(1‐42) peptide.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Histological studies confirmed that MEM–PEG–PLGA NPs reduced β-amyloid plaques and the associated inflammation characteristic of Alzheimer’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flurbiprofen loaded biodegradable nanoparticles for ophtalmic administration.
TL;DR: In vivo anti-inflammatory efficacy was assessed in the rabbit eye after topical instillation of sodium arachidonate (SA).
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipid nanoparticles (SLN, NLC): Overcoming the anatomical and physiological barriers of the eye - Part II - Ocular drug-loaded lipid nanoparticles.
TL;DR: The latest findings, potential applications, and challenges related to the use of lipid nanoparticles for ocular drug delivery are comprehensively discussed.
