Visual Prostheses Based Upon Fiber-Optic Uncaging of Neurotransmitter Substances

Detailed Description A fiber optic cable may also be used to deliver light. The drug delivery system selectively delivers drugs to various types of neurological cells. In operation a solution of photoactivatable neuro-active drug is delivered to a pre-selected area in vivo and photoactivated in the solution at the pre-selected area to stimulate neurological...

Drug-Dendrimer Nanoparticles for Targeted Treatment of Neuroinflammation

Highly effective dendrimer-drug based compositions and methods for treatment have been developed that target neuroinflammation both in the brain and the retina upon intravenous administration. The nanodevices overcome the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and deliver drugs to target cells (activated microglia and astrocytes) producing dramatic therapeutic improvements....
