The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a specialized semipermeable structure that highly regulates exchanges between the central nervous system parenchyma and blood vessels. Thus, BBB also prevents passage of various forms therapeutic agents, nanocarriers, their cargos. Recently, many multidisciplinary studies focus on developing cargo-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) to overcome these challenges, which are emerging as safe effective vehicles in neurotheranostics. In this Review, first we introduce anatomical physiological functions BBB. Second, present endogenous exogenous transport mechanisms by NPs cross We report nanomaterials, carriers, cargos, with detailed uptake permeability characteristics. Third, describe effect regulating size, shape, charge, surface ligands affect permeability, can be exploited enhance promote classify typical functionalized nanomaterials developed for crossing. Fourth, provide comprehensive review recent progress functional polymeric applications multimodal bioimaging, therapeutics, drug delivery.

Neurological disorders (NDs) are recognized as one of the major health concerns globally. According to World Health Organization (WHO), neurological main causes mortality worldwide. include Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson′s Huntington′s Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Frontotemporal dementia, Prion Brain tumor, Spinal cord injury, and Stroke. These diseases considered incurable because no specific therapies available cross blood-brain barrier (BBB) reach brain in a significant amount for pharmacological effect brain. There is need development strategies that can improve efficacy drugs circumvent BBB. One promising approaches use different types nano-scale materials. nano-based have ability increase therapeutic effect, reduce toxicity, exhibit good stability, targeted delivery, drug loading capacity. Different shapes nanomaterials been widely used treatment disorders, including quantum dots, dendrimers, metallic nanoparticles, polymeric carbon nanotubes, liposomes, micelles. nanoparticles unique characteristics, sensitivity, selectivity, BBB when nano-sized particles, imaging studies NDs. In this review, we briefly summarized recent literature on various their mechanism action disorders.
