NANOENCAPSULATED SUPEROXIDE DISMUTASE AND CATALASE FOR TREATING SPINAL CORD INJURY

摘要

The invention is directed to a method of treating a spinal cord injury, a neurodegenerative disease or a neuronal injury in an individual in need thereof comprising administering an effective amount of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase to the individual, wherein the superoxide dismutase and the catalase are encapsulated in one or more nanoparticles that release the SOD and catalase upon administration. Another aspect of the invention is directed to compositions comprising superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase encapsulated in one or more nanoparticles.
