Transient Optical Opening of the Blood-Brain Barrier by Laser Excitation of Plasmonic Nanoparticles

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) poses a low permeability to most drugs and poses a significant challenge to effective treatment of brain diseases. The BBB restricts the delivery of most drug molecules into the brain by tight junctions (TJs) that seal gaps between adjacent endothelial cells, displaying low permeability and high electrical resistance. Herein,...
