Silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles activate microglia and induce neurotoxic d-serine secretion
Abstract Background Nanoparticles have been studied for brain imaging, diagnosis, and drug delivery owing to their versatile properties due to their small sizes. However, there are growing concerns that nanoparticles may exert toxic effects in the brain. In this study, we assessed direct nanotoxicit...
