Nanoparticle design for drug delivery to atherosclerotic plaques

2020-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Cardiovascular disease remains the main cause of death worldwide, and at the core of most cardiac problems is atherosclerosis. This progressive condition is characterised by the hardening and narrowing of the arteries. Often a cholesterol-lowering drug known as a statin is prescribed. Studies have shown these drugs to have many advantageous properties including an anti-inflammatory effect, the ability to improve e...
