Can Nanotechnology Aid in Neuroprotection and Regeneration?
Neuroprotection and regeneration are crucial for treating neurodegenerative disorders. Nanofibers and nanotubes can be used to create scaffolds that support neuronal growth and repair. These scaffolds can be loaded with growth factors and other therapeutic agents to encourage the regeneration of damaged neurons. Additionally, nanoparticles can deliver antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents directly to the brain, providing neuroprotection.
