Hydrogels have been employed in the context of stroke to treat focal damage by precisely depositing therapeutic agents in the sites of interest or delivering drugs/factors directly into the brain (i.e., within the stroke cavity or the peri-lesional area)
3,4,5 A recent study utilizing advanced technologies determined a more precise half-life of approximately 19 h, which is still less than 1 day
This GSH-responsive behavior not only caused contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging, but also contributed to the tumor site-specific release of loaded therapeutic agents for realizing selective cancer therapy ( More interestingly, several semimetallic nanomaterials, such as selenium (Se)- and tellurium (Te)-based nanoparticles, can also decrease intracellular GSH levels

It enhances the activity of immune cells and also functions as an antioxidant within them
