Abstract:Hypothesis:
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) for cochlear drug delivery can be precisely engineered for biocompatibility in the cochlea.
Background:
MNPs are promising drug delivery vehicles that can enhance the penetration of both small and macromolecular therapeutics into the cochlea. However, concerns exist regarding the application of oxidative, metal-based nanomaterials to delicate sensory tissues of the inner ear. Translational development of MNPs fo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
