Abstract:
Alzheimer's disease(AD)has attracted widespread attention due to its extremely complex pathogenic mechanisms,multiple pathogenic factors,and its heavy burden on patients and the society.In recent years,several studies have revealed various pathogenic mechanisms of AD,and the AD treatments based on these mechanisms become research hotspot in nanomedicine.Nanomaterials with unique physi-cochemical properties show great potential in AD treatment.Nanomaterials possess good biocompatibility.Moreover,they can regulate and release therapeutic drugs continuously and steadily to ensure the ideal concentrations of drugs reach in the target site.Meanwhile,they can bind with the therapeutic targets precisely to treat AD.Therefore,the development of novel nanodrugs has become an important research area in AD treatment.This article reviews the main pathological features and pathogenic mechanisms of AD,including β-amyloid plaque aggregation,Tau protein hyperphosphorylation,oxidative stress,and neuroinflammation.Additionally,this review mainly discusses the therapeutic strategies of nanomaterials in clearing pathological proteins(such as β-amyloid and Tau proteins),inhibiting oxidative stress,and alleviating neuroinflammation.Finally,this review prospects the risks and challenges faced on current AD treatment strategies by nanomaterials,such as low drug delivery efficiency to the brain and potential side effects after treatment.We also provide suggestions for the future directions in this research field.This review aims to promote the clinical translation of nanomaterials in AD treatment by discussing the research status of this field.
