The effect of cerium dioxide nanoparticles on the viability of hippocampal neurons in Alzheimer's disease modeling.

The possibilities of using nanoparticle materials based on cerium dioxide (CNPs) are exciting since they are low toxic and have specific redox, antiradical properties. It can be supposed that CNPs' biomedical use is also relevant in neurodegenerative diseases, especially Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is known as the pathologies leading to progressive dementia in the elderly.
