Metal-Based Nanoparticles as Antimicrobial Agents: An Overview
Sánchez-López, Elena; Gomes, Daniela; Esteruelas, Gerard; Bonilla, Lorena; Lopez-Machado, Ana Laura; Galindo, Ruth; Cano, Amanda; Espina, MartaMetal-based nanoparticles have been extensively investigated for a set of biomedical applications. According to the World Health Organization, in addition to their reduced size and selectivity for bacteria, metal-based nanoparticles have also proved to be effective against pathogens listed as a priority. Metal-based nanoparticles are known to have non-specific bacterial toxicity mechanisms (they do not bind to ...

Cano, Amanda; Sánchez-López, Elena; Ettcheto, Miren; López-Machado, Ana; Espina, Marta; Souto, Eliana B.; Galindo, Ruth; Camins, AntonioEffective intervention is essential to combat the coming epidemic of neurodegenerative (ND) diseases. Nanomedicine can overcome restrictions of CNS delivery imposed by the bloodbrain barrier, and thus be instrumental in preclinical discovery and therapeutic intervention of ND diseases. Polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs) have shown great potential and versatility to encapsulate several compounds simultaneously in co...
