Due to the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and issues with oral and other traditional routes of administration, psychiatric disorders present significant challenges in getting therapeutics into the brain. The nose-to-brain pathway, also known as intranasal delivery, has shown promise in overcoming these barriers since it targets the brain directly and bypasses the BBB. This review explores nanocarriers' potential for intranasal delivery of therapeutics in the treatment of psychiatric disorders.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition. Natural products have gained traction in AD treatment due to their accessibility, low toxicity, and favorable pharmacological properties. However, their application is primarily constrained by poor solubility, instability, and limited permeability.

Article Synopsis
  • Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease characterized by cartilage destruction and inflammation, recognized as a metabolic disease linked to cholesterol metabolism in chondrocytes.
  • A new study combines bioactive hydrogels that recruit stem cells with lipid nanoparticles to create a regenerative environment for treating OA.
  • This method promotes the differentiation of stem cells into chondrocytes and improves inflammation, presenting a promising nonsurgical treatment option for cartilage restoration in OA patients.

Pharmaceutical Development of Green Innovations Group (PDGIG), Department of Industrial Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Silpakorn University, Nakhon Pathom, Thailand; Research and Innovation Center for Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products, Faculty of Pharmacy, Silpakorn University, Nakhon Pathom 73000, Thailand. Electronic address:

The current study focused on the development of crosslinked hydrogel microneedle patches (cHMNs) incorporating 5-FU-hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complex-loaded flexible PEGylated liposomes (5-FU-HPβCD-loaded FP-LPs) to enhance treatment efficacy and reduce drug toxicity. The research utilized artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to design, optimize, and evaluate the cHMNs. Various AI models were assessed for accuracy, with metrics such as root mean square error and coefficient of determination guiding the selection of the most effective formulation.
