‘Nanoflowers’ can heal brain cells and protect against diseases
‘Nanoflowers’ can heal brain cells and protect against diseases Nanoflowers, metallic flower-shaped nanoparticles, have been shown to protect and heal brain cells by promoting mitochondrial health and turnover. The nanoflowers target the underlying mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, rather than just managing symptoms. By improving mitochondrial function, the nanoflowers help address one […]
