Kidneys Toxicity and Biodistribution of Albumin-Based Gold and Silver Nanoclusters
The identified renal toxicity linked to BSA-AgNCs, despite their lower kidney accumulation than BSA-AuNCs, illuminates the intricate interplay between nanoparticle biodistribution and toxicity. This underscores the significance of considering the core metal type in nanoparticle design and evaluation. Further investigation is needed to clarify the underlying molecular mechanisms of the observed biodistribution and toxicity.
