"A team of scientists co-led by the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) and West China Hospital Sichuan University (WCHSU), in collaboration with UK researchers, has developed a nanotechnology-based treatment that successfully reverses Alzheimer’s disease in mice. Unlike conventional nanomedicine, which typically uses nanoparticles to deliver drugs, this new strategy relies on nanoparticles that are therapeutic themselves, described as “supramolecular drugs.”"
Apparently, permeability of the blood-brain barrier is a factor in removal of amyloid-β which is part of Alzheimer’s. They saw dramatic improvements in mice one hour after injection.
This is the sort of research that is worth every penny spent unlike research that tries to catrgorize math as systemic racism.
