Intracellular gold nanoparticles increase neuronal excitability and aggravate seizure activity in the mouse brain.
Due to their inert property, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have drawn considerable attention; their biological application has recently expanded to include nanomedicine and neuroscience. However, the effect of AuNPs on the bioelectrical properties of a single neuron remains unknown. Here we present the...
