Penetrating the Blood-Brain Barrier: Promise of Novel Nanoplatforms and Delivery Vehicles

摘要

Multifunctional nanoplatforms combining versatile therapeutic modalities with a variety of imaging options have the potential to diagnose, monitor, and treat brain diseases. The promise of nanotechnology can only be realized by the simultaneous development of innovative brain-targeting delivery vehicles capable of penetrating the blood brain barrier without compromising its structural integrity.
