Gold Nanoparticles and cancer



Lopez-Quintela and colleagues (J Invest Dermatol. 2007 Jul;127(7):1701-12) have recently reported that inorganic nanoparticles (smaller than 10 nm) may penetrate human skin and occasionally permeate the skin. Skin penetration through the stratum corneum lipidic matrix with nanoparticles could be a very powerful drug delivery strategy.






M.A. Lopez-Quintela is part of the scientific advisory board of Nanogap. He is leading the biomedical researchs of Nanogap, aided by Prof. Fernando Domínguez and Prof. Benito Regueiro.
