Quick Hits: New Nanoparticle Eats Plaques That Cause Heart Attacks

Scientists from Michigan State University and Stanford University have developed a nanoparticle that targets atherosclerotic plaque.

Plaque accumulates in arteries when cholesterol, white blood cells, and calcium build up on the artery wall. If the clot grows large enough, it can block the flow of blood through the coronary artery and cause a heart attack. According to a recent MSU Today article, scientists at Michigan State University and Stanford University have invented a nanoparticle that zeros in on the portions of plaque that causes heart attacks, and eats it away from the inside out.
