Evolution of blood–brain barrier in brain diseases and related systemic nanoscale brain-targeting drug delivery strategies
Open accessAbstract
Blood–brain barrier (BBB) strictly controls matter exchange between blood and brain, and severely limits brain penetration of systemically administered drugs, resulting in ineffective drug therapy of brain diseases. However, during the onset and progression of brain diseases, BBB alterations evolve inevitably. In this review, we focus on nanoscale brain-targeting drug delivery strategies designed based on BBB evolutions and related applications in various brain diseases including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, stroke, traumatic brain injury and brain tumor. The advances on optimization of small molecules for BBB crossing and non-systemic administration routes (e.g., intranasal treatment) for BBB bypassing are not included in this review.

Delivery strategies can be divided into three main approaches, taking into account pathological changes to the BBB in AD: receptor-mediated transport, passive accumulation through disrupted tight junctions, and neuroinflammation-mediated transport.
“Delivery strategies can be divided into three main approaches, taking into account the pathological changes to the BBB in AD [88]. The first is the use of receptor-mediated transport (RMT), for example, via the transferrin receptor or LRP1 (angiopep-2 peptide). The second is passive accumulation through areas with disrupted tight junction integrity (analogous to the EPR effect), where the optimal”

The paper describes receptor-mediated delivery for AD in “Evolutionary RMT and CMT based strategy,” and its “Applications > AD” section describes nanocarriers entering through a compromised BBB. It also presents a “Neuroinflammation based strategy,” but does not establish these as the three main approaches specifically for AD; that strategy is discussed across brain diseases. The AD section further cautions that tight-junction loss alone was insufficient to increase influx of small-molecule drugs. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredRAGE is elevated in AD brain vasculature and activated microglia.
“To enhance brain enrichment, we exploited the elevated expression of RAGE in AD brain vasculature and activated microglia [ 15, 46, 47 ].”

The Applications > AD section states that RAGE expression increases in AD brain microvasculature and describes using that pathway for drug delivery. It discusses delivering treatments to microglia, but does not say that RAGE expression is elevated in activated microglia; that part of the attributed claim is unsupported. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredAD BBB integrity varies by disease stage rather than remaining static.
“As Han and Jiang [88] review, AD BBB integrity varies by disease stage rather than remaining static.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
