Nanotechnology promises a revolution in pharmacology to improve or create ex novo therapies. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria), well-known as catalysts, possess an astonishing pharmacological potential due to their antioxidant properties, deriving from a fraction of Ce(3+) ions present in CeO(2).

Cerium is a member of the lanthanide series or rare earth elements which exert diverse biological effects mainly by their resemblance to calcium. This similarity, which is particularly characteristic for the lighter members of the lanthanide series, enables these elements
