Grant Activity:
Shear-activated nanotherapeutics to selectively enhance collateral cerebral blood flow during ischaemic stroke
Purpose:
Selectively increasing blood flow through bypass vessels can help save the brain from stroke. We have teamed up with researchers from Harvard University who produce vasodilating drugs, which are packaged into incredibly small delivery devices called nanoparticles. These nanoparticles only release the drug when exposed to levels of shear stress only found in brain bypass vessels. This grant will explore the potential of these nanoparticles as a new therapy for stroke.
