Zein nanoparticles (ZNPs) have gained significant attention as biocompatible and biodegradable nanocarrier systems for brain-targeted drug delivery. Their ability to encapsulate hydrophobic drugs undergo surface modifications enables effective blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetration through receptor-mediated transcytosis. Functionalization approaches, such PEGylation ligand conjugation, been explored enhance BBB transport improve bioavailability. Additionally, ZNPs hold the potential theranostic applications, integrating delivery with real-time diagnostics facilitate personalized treatment strategies. This review provides a comprehensive evaluation of ZNPs, discussing their fabrication techniques, modifications, mechanisms across BBB. A comparative analysis other (liposomes, polymeric NPs, dendrimers, lipid-based carbon nanotubes) highlights superior biodegradability, lower toxicity, clinical translation. Furthermore, we explore latest advancements in ZNP-based neurological disorders, including glioblastoma, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's. Despite advantages, translation remains challenging due scalability issues, batch-to-batch variability, regulatory constraints. Future research should optimize functionalization strategies, release kinetics, conduct long-term safety evaluations. With continued nanotechnology pharmaceutical engineering, represent promising, sustainable platform improving therapeutic interventions.

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a critical structure that maintains brain homeostasis by selectively regulating nutrient influx and waste efflux. Not surprisingly, it often compromised in neurodegenerative diseases. In addition to its involvement these pathologies, the BBB also represents significant challenge for drug delivery into central nervous system. Nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely explored as carriers capable of overcoming this effectively transporting therapies brain. However, their potential directly address ameliorate dysfunction has received limited attention. review, we examine how NPs enhance across treat diseases explore emerging strategies restore integrity vital structure.

Ischemic stroke is a prevalent form of cerebrovascular accident, with its pathogenesis involving the intricate interplay between neuroinflammation and energy metabolism. Cerebral ischemia disrupts oxygen supply, triggering metabolic dysregulation activating neuroinflammatory responses, ultimately resulting in cellular damage. This review provides an exhaustive analysis complex mechanisms ischemic stroke, particular focus on interaction The interruption supply due to cerebral initiates activates including release inflammatory cytokines activation immune cells, contributing damage further disturbances. Studies indicate that metabolism significantly impairs neural cell function interacts neuroinflammation, exacerbating brain injury. Therapeutic strategies primarily concentrate modulating suppressing emphasizing importance in-depth research into their provide theoretical foundation for new treatment stroke. Future should how balance anti-inflammatory regulation minimize promote recovery.
