摘要

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a non-recoverable progressive neurodegenerative disorder most prevalent but not limited to the old age population. After all the scientific efforts, there are still many unmet criteria and loopholes in available treatment and diagnostic strategies, limiting their efficacy. The poor drug efficacy is attributed to various biological hurdles, including blood-brain barrier (BBB) and peripheral side effects as most prominent ones and the lack of promising carriers to precisely deliver the drug to the brain by conserving its therapeutic potency. The increasing disease prevalence and unavailability of effective therapy calls for developing a more innovative, convenient and affordable way to treat AD. To fulfill such need, researchers explored various biomaterials to develop potential vectors or other forms to target the bioactives in the brain by preserving their inherent properties, improving the existing lacuna like poor solubility, permeability and bioavailability etc. and minimize the side effect. The unique characteristic properties of biomaterials are used to develop different drug carriers, surface modifying target active ligands, functional carriers, drug conjugate, biosensing probe, diagnostic tool and many more. The nanoparticulate system and other colloidal carriers like hydrogel and biodegradable scaffold can effectively target the drug moieties to the brain. Also, the use of different target-acting ligands and stimuli-responsive carriers assures the site-specificity and controlled release at the desired site by interaction with receptors and various exo-and endogenous stimuli. This review article has highlighted the application of biomaterials for targeting the drug to the brain and as promising diagnostic tools to detect the markers for better AD management. The work particularly focuses on the use of biomaterials as smart drug carriers including pH, thermo, photo, electro and magnetically triggered system; novel drug carriers for brain targeting including polymeric carriers (polymeric nanoparticle, dendrimer and polymeric micelle); lipid carrier (liposome, nano emulsion, NLC and SLN); inorganic nanoparticles (quantum dots, gold nanoparticles etc.); and other drug vectors (hydrogel, biodegradable scaffold, and carbon nanotube) in treatment of AD. It also highlighted the application of some novel carrier systems and biomaterials as biosensor and other diagnostic tools for early and precise AD diagnosis.
