| Title |
Nanomedicine making headway across the blood brain barrier |
| Date |
2012-01-01 |
| Description |
Nanotechnological advances implemented by nanomedicine have allowed significant development of imaging strategies, therapeutics and theranostics for many severe and life threatening diseases such as brain tumors, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and other neurological disorders. The Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) and the Blood-Cerebrospinal Fluid Barrier (BCSF) have hindered the effective delivery of brain imaging agents and therapeutics. However, within the last decade, innovations in the design of nanoparticles are proving to be very exciting. |
