Oxidative stress and neuroinflammation play a pivotal role in pathomechanisms of brain ischemia. Our research aimed to formulate a nanotheranostic system for delivering carnosic acid as a neuroprotective agent with anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties to ischemic brain tissue, mimicked by organotypic hippocampal cultures (OHCs) exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). In the first part of this study, the nanocarriers were formulated by encapsulating two types of nanocores (nanoemulsion (AOT) and polymeric (PCL)) containing CA into multilayer shells using the sequential adsorption of charged nanoobjects method.

The special structure of eyes and the existence of various physiological barriers make ocular drug delivery one of the most difficult problems in the pharmaceutical field. Considering the problems of patient compliance, local administration remains the preferred method of drug administration in the anterior part of eyes. However, local administration suffers from poor bioavailability, need for frequent administration, and systemic toxicity.

Disruptions in the central circadian clock (CC), located in the brain, accelerate AD pathogenesis, making the CC a promising target. In preclinical trials, this strategy have shown efficacy but clinical results are inconsistent.

Lumbar injections into this space represent a clinically used approach for delivering therapeutics directly to the brain, bypassing critical barriers such as the blood-brain and blood-cerebrospinal fluid barriers. A nuanced understanding of CSF dynamics is vital for comprehending physiological states of the CNS for drug delivery.

Background: Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), the accumulation of amyloid proteins in the cerebral vasculature, increases the risk of stroke and vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID). Not only is there no treatment for CAA, but the condition is also highly comorbid with Alzheimer's disease (AD), and its presence may serve as a contraindication to treating patients with anti-amyloid therapies due to an increased risk of hemorrhage and edema. Therefore, it is crucial to identify novel treatments for individuals with CAA.
