Convolutions in the rendition of nose to brain therapeutics from bench to bedside: Feats & fallacies.

Brain, a subtle organ of multifarious nature presents plethora of physiological, metabolic and bio-chemical convolutions that impede the delivery of biomolecules and thereby resulting in truncated therapeutic outcome in pathological conditions of central nervous system (CNS). The absolute bottleneck in the therapeutic management of such devastating CNS ailments is the BBB. Another pitfall is the lack of efficient technological platforms (due to high cost and low approval rates) as well as limited clinical trials (due to failures of neuro‑leads in late-stage pipelines) for CNS disorders which has become a literal brain drain with poorest success rates compared to other therapeutic areas, owing to time consuming processes, tremendous convolutions and conceivable adverse effects.

Bio-Inspired Strategies against Diabetes and Associated Complications: A Review.

Bio-molecules are the most important target to be considered while designing any drug delivery system. The logic lies in using such bio-sensing or bio-mimicking systems in their formulations that can mimic the active site of those receptors to which the drug is going to bind. Polymers mimicking the active site of target enzymes are regarded as bio-inspired polymers and can be used to ameliorate many diseased conditions.
