A new method for three-dimensional visualization of nanoplastic distribution in the neonatal mouse brain has been established, revealing particle-size-dependent biodistribution patterns. The study found that smaller particles (50 nm) were widely distributed throughout the brain, while larger particles (500 nm) showed weaker accumulation.
Researchers have shown that repeated administration of lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated mRNA therapy significantly extended survival and reduced serum leucine levels in a mouse model of maple syrup urine disease. The treatment approach may represent a potential long-term universal treatment for MSUD.
Researchers from Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University found that brain stimulation combined with a nose spray containing nanoparticles can improve recovery after ischemic stroke. The treatment increased cognitive and motor functions, and weighed more quickly than those treated with TMS alone.
The study investigates the biodistribution of AAV gene transfer vectors in nonhuman primates using quantitative positron emission tomography (PET). The results show that both AAVrsh.10 and AAV9 vectors distribute primarily to the liver, with lesser detection in the brain after intravenous administration.
Researchers used total-body PET imaging to track the distribution of 89Zr-labeled antibodies in preclinical trials, achieving excellent image quality up to 30 days after injection. The study demonstrates the potential of this technique for extended imaging windows and low-dose radioactivity.
