Cardiovascular breakthrough: Nanoparticle therapy cuts plaque buildup in arteries | The new therapy works by identifying and attacking the specific areas of inflammation in the arteries.


Researchers at Michigan State University have developed a new nanotherapy infusion for the treatment of arterial plaque inflammation.

Researchers at Michigan State University have developed a new nanotherapy infusion for the treatment of arterial plaque inflammation. “We showed in animal models such as pigs that we can decrease the levels of inflammation in the plaque based not only on this clinically used PET imaging technique but also by molecular assays. Her work has been featured in well-known publications including Nature India, Supercluster, The Weather Channel and Astronomy magazine.
