Brain Targeted Drug Delivery Systems: A Focus on Nanotechnology and
Nanoparticulates provides a guide on nanoparticulates to both
academic and industry researchers. The book discusses key points in
the development of brain targeted drug delivery, summarizes
available strategies, and considers the main problems and pitfalls
evidenced in current studies on brain targeted drug delivery
systems. As the brain is the most important organ in the human
body, and disorders of the central nervous system (CNS) are the
most serious threat to human life, this book highlights advances
and new research in drug delivery methods to the brain.
Neurotoxicity of Nanomaterials and Nanomedicine presents an
overview of the exciting research in neurotoxicity and
nanomaterials. Nanomaterials have been extensively used in
medicine, including diagnosis probes, drug carriers, and embedded
materials. While some have been approved for clinical use, most
nanomaterials are waiting to be transferred from lab to clinic.
However, the toxicity is a main barrier that restricts the
translation. This comprehensive book includes chapters on the most
commonly used individual nanoparticles, with information on the
applications, neurotoxicity, and related mechanisms of each,
providing the most in-depth and current information available. The
book examines the pathways that nanomaterials enter into, and
eliminate, from the brain, along with the strategies that could
reduce the neurotoxicity of nanomaterials. Providing a background
to the subject, detailed information, and ideas for future
directions in research, the book is essential for students and
researchers in toxicology, and for those in medicine, neurology,
pharmacology, pharmaceutical science, and materials science who are
researching nanomaterials.
