Tissue distribution of gold nanoparticles after single intravenous administration in mice.
Journal Title: Pharmacological Reports - Year 2013, Vol 65, Issue 4
Abstract
Nanoparticles (a part of matter which size is less than 100 nm) have numerous potential applications in biomedicine, due to their unique surface, electronic and optical properties. The goal of the present study was to examine the distribution of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in mice after single intravenous administration.

Kynurenic acid and kynurenine aminotransferases in retinal aging and neurodegeneration.
The kynurenine aminotransferases (KATs) KAT I and KAT II are pivotal to the synthesis of kynurenic acid (KYNA), the only known endogenous glutamate receptor antagonist and neuroprotectant. KAT I and II have been found in...
Influence of ABCB1, CYP3A4*18B and CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms on cyclosporine A pharmacokinetics in bone marrow transplant recipients.
The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the effect of polymorphisms in the CYP3A4, CYP3A5 and ABCB1 genes on the dose-adjusted concentration and dose requirement of cyclosporine A(CsA) in Chinese recipients...
Effect of repeated co-treatment with imipramine and metyrapone on the behavioral reactivity of the central serotonin, dopamine and alpha(1)-adrenergic systems in rats.
The aim of present study was to examine the effect of repeated co-treatment with imipramine and metyrapone on the development of adaptive changes in the function of central serotonin 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2A), dopamine D(2/3...
Yohimbine-induced alterations in alpha(2)-adrenoceptors in kidney regions of the spontaneously hypertensive rats: an autoradiographic analysis.
We have tested the hypothesis that a pharmacologically determined alteration in renal alpha(2)-adrenoceptor (alpha(2)-AR) density might be a pathophysiologically important factor of genetic hypertension in the spontaneou...
