Clemson University researchers
have developed nanoparticles that can deliver drugs targeting damaged
arteries, a non-invasive method to fight heart disease. Heart
disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S., according to the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. One of the standard ways to
treat clogged and damaged arteries currently is to implant vascular
stents, which hold the vessels open and release such drugs as
paclitaxel. The researchers,
led by Clemson bioengineering professor Naren Vyavahare, hope their
advanced nanoparticles could be used alongside stents or in lieu of
them.
