This overcomes issues with pronuclear microinjection in agricultural animals. Nanoinjection uses electroporation, generating a localized electric field to insert DNA without fluid. Nanoparticles can also deliver therapeutic genes for conditions like retinopathies, protecting against viruses while targeting delivery and limiting expression time. Various nanoparticle types including polymers, gold, and magnetic varieties show promise for gene therapy applications.

Nano-Biomaterials and Their Biocompatibility in Restorative Dentistry: A Reviewinventionjournals
Human healthcare is facing a major uprising in the wake of ongoing technological expansions in the field of nanotechnology. Incorporation of nanotechnology into dentistry will make possible the maintenance of near perfect oral environment by using nanomaterials, including tissue engineering, and ultimately, dental nanorobots. New potential treatment prospects in dentistry may include: dentition renaturalization and permanent hypersensitivity cure, local anaesthesia, complete orthodontic realignments during a single office visit, covalently bonded diamondised enamel, and oral health maintenance using mechanical dentifrobots, to destroy bacteria in the mouth that cause dental caries or even repair spots on the teeth where decay has set in, by use of computer to direct these tiny workers in their tasks. Nanodentistry still faces many significant challenges in realizing its tremendous potential. There are larger social issues of public acceptance, regulations, ethics and human safety that must be taken into consideration before molecular nano-technology can enter the modern medical armamentarium. However, there is equally powerful motivation to surmount these various challenges such as the possibility of providing high quality dental care to 80% of the population that at present receives no noteworthy dental care. Time, financial and scientific resources, specific advances and human needs will conclude which of the applications to be realized first!

A nanomedicine approach for ocular neuroprotection in glaucoma
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Glaucoma is an eye disease in which the optic nerve is damaged, leading to
progressive and irreversible loss of vision. It is often, but not always, associated with increased pressure
of the fluid in the eye. In the early stages of the disease, there may be no symptoms. Depending upon
the type of glaucoma, treatment may include medication, usually prescription eyedrops, or surgery to
lower the pressure in the eye and prevent further damage to the optic nerve. While there is no cure as
yet for glaucoma, early diagnosis and continuing treatment can preserve eyesight.
Medical researchers believe that the best way to protect the eye from glaucoma is to protect the optic
nerve from a sudden increase in intraocular pressure since ocular hypertension is the most important
risk factor for glaucoma.
Accordingly, for the past few years, huge research efforts have been made to develop a powerful
biotechnical approach to protect the optic nerve. As a result, scientists discovered that Heat Shock
Proteins (HSPs) can be a new powerful modality for the protection of optic nerves – ocular
neuroprotection – from glaucoma.
"The HSPs, called by stress proteins, are a group of proteins that exist in all living creatures, from
bacteria to human beings," Seongtae Bae explains to Nanowerk. "They can be induced in living cells by
hyperthermia, metabolic stress, or oxygen deprivation. In particular, HSPs 70 families in the mammalian
central nervous system have been known to enhance neuronal tolerance against ischemic insults and
confirmed to be effective for neuroprotection against light-induced injuries in a rat retina."
Although a variety of methods to induce HSPs have been developed and tried, they all were found to be
ineffective for the induction of HSPs from the optic nerve due to side effects including chemical and
physical side effects.
A novel nanomedicine modality has now been shown to be feasible for ocular neuroprotection in
glaucoma cases.
Bae, an assistant professor and supervisor of the Biomagnetics Laboratory (BML) at the Department of
Electrical and Computer Engineering at National University of Singapore, and his team, together with a
medical research collaborator team from Seoul National University (SNU), led by Ki Ho Park, a
professor in the Department of Ophthalmology at SNU's School of Medicine have developed an
approach that induces localized HSPs by local magnetic hyperthermia using engineered
superparamagnetic nanoparticle agents with a 5.5 nm mean particle size.

Reporting their findings in the September 28, 2010, online issue of Biomaterials ("Engineered
superparamagnetic Mn0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanoparticles as a heat shock protein induction agent for ocular
neuroprotection in glaucoma"), the team summarizes their scientific findings in three main areas. Says
Bae:
1) "We developed a new infusion technique of nanoparticles to the retina through the vitreous body
(most of the current technology regarding infusions is through intravenous injection through blood
vessels; but the eye does not have any blood vessel except for Choroid so we developed a new
technique through the vitreous body). Here, the nanoparticles are injected into the eyeball and are
diffused through the vitreous body to the surface of the retina;
2) "We developed a very small size of nanoparticle with 5.5 nm mean diameter, which exhibited a higher
SAR (specific absorption rate) as well as higher heat generation in a short time and can be easily
transported in the eye by developing a new synthesis method (for more on this, see "Effects of Mn
