Anti-inflammatory potential of platinum nanozymes: mechanisms and perspectives
Giuseppe Bardi, Luca Boselli, Pier Paolo Pompa
Abstract
. Size/shape/surface engineering of the nanozymes could also potentiate their efficacy to act at different sites and/or steps of the inflammation process, such as cytokine removal or specific targeting of activated leukocytes. In the present review, we analyze key inflammation triggering processes and the effects of platinum nanozymes under exemplificative inflammatory conditions. We further discuss potential platinum nanozyme design and improvements to modulate and expand their anti-inflammatory action.
