Abstract Gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) are being increasingly used as constituents in
cosmetics, biosensors, bioimaging, photothermal therapy, and targeted drug delivery. This …

The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects and mechanism of
action of the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on vascular injury. In vitro vascular endothelial cell …

In this work, we evaluated the impact of gold nanoparticles on endothelial cell behavior and
function beyond the influence on cell viability. Five types of gold nanoparticles were studied …

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are relevant in nanomedicine for drug delivery in the vascular
system, where endothelial cells are the first point of contact. We investigated the uptake of …

This report examined blood-brain barrier (BBB) related proinflammatory mediators and
permeability changes in response to various sized gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs)(3, 5, 7, 10 …

PEGylated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have an extended circulation time after intravenous
injection in vivo and exhibit favorable properties for biosensing, diagnostic imaging, and …

The endothelium presents a formidable barrier for cancer nanomedicine, as the
intravenously introduced nanomedicine needs to leave the blood vessel at the tumor site …

Background Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) can enter the brain and induce neurotoxicity.
However, the toxicity of Ag-NPs on the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and the underlying …

Background Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) demonstrate clinical potential for drug delivery and
imaging diagnostics. As AuNPs aggregate in physiological fluids, polymer-surface …

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are used in many applications; however, their interactions with
cells and potential health risk (s) are not fully known. In this manuscript, we describe the …
