Complete article is available here, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5800098/#MOESM1 Abstract Background Obesity is a high risk for multiple metabolic disorders due to excessive influx of energy, glucose and lipid, often from a western based diet. Low-grade inflammation plays a key role in the progression of such metabolic disorders. The anti-inflammatory property of gold compounds has been used in…… Continue reading Gold Nanoparticles Improve Metabolism, May Manage Obesity

from https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/adma.200602098 Abstract Gold nanoparticles significantly inhibit proliferation in multiple myeloma cell lines (see figure) in a dose‐dependent manner. Gold‐treated multiple myeloma cells show cell‐cycle arrest in the G1‐phase (the phase when chromosomes prepare for replication) by up‐regulation of cell‐cycle cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor proteins p21 and p27. Gold nanoparticles do not affect normal peripheral blood…… Continue reading Gold Nanoparticles Inhibit the Proliferation of Multiple Myeloma Cells (cancer of plasma cells in bone marrow)

Full article here, https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/892250 Excerpt 1 Preclinical studies in animal models of multiple sclerosis (MS) have found that faceted crystalline gold nanoparticles can induce remyelination of axons and even improve motor function. The research addresses an underlying cause of dysfunction associated with MS disease activity. “We are proposing that this gold nanocrystal can actually promote…… Continue reading Gold Nanoparticles Demonstrate Myelin Repair

The use of nanoparticles is of the methods which have recently been applied in the anti-parasitic studies and have showed the acceptable results. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the…… Continue reading The Investigation of Nanoparticles of Gold’s Fatality Effect on Toxoplasma gondii Parasite in an In vitro Study

Complete paper is available here, https://www.academia.edu/3571111/Preparation_of_gold_nanoparticles_by_arc_discharge_in_water Abstract Gold nanoparticles have been attracting attention due to their extensive application in chemistry, physics, material science, electronics, catalysis and bionanotechnology. Synthesis of gold nanoparticles often involves toxic and expensive physical-chemistry methods. Preparation of gold nanoparticles by arc discharge in water is proposed for the first time. Fabrication of…… Continue reading Preparation of gold nanoparticles by arc discharge in water
