Theranostic Implications of Nanotechnology in Multiple Sclerosis: A Future Perspectiv

Theranostic Implications of [URL="http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ad/2012/160830/"][U]Nanotechnology[/U][/URL] in Multiple Sclerosis: A Future Perspective
[QUOTE][B]Abstract[/B]

Multiple Sclerosis is a multifactorial disease with several pathogenic mechanisms and pathways. Successful MS management and medical care requires early accurate diagnosis along with specific treatment protocols based upon multifunctional nanotechnology approach.

This paper highlights advances in nanotechnology that have enabled the clinician to target the brain and CNS in patient with multiple sclerosis with nanoparticles having therapeutic and imaging components. The multipartite theranostic (thera(py) + (diag)nostics) approach puts forth strong implications for medical care and cure in MS.

The current nanotheranostics utilize tamed drug vehicles and contain cargo, targeting ligands, and imaging labels for delivery to specific tissues, cells, or subcellular components. A brief overview of nonsurgical nanorepair advances as future perspective is also described.

Considering the potential inflammatory triggers in MS pathogenesis, a multifunctional nanotechnology approach will be needed for the prognosis.[/QUOTE]

Boeiend artikel; Dr. Z ook op het nano-terrein actief :)

Dit geeft toch weer hoop.
