Abstract:

The challenges of delivering therapeutic agents to the central nervous system (CNS) have spurred interest in exosomes as versatile drug delivery vehicles. These small vesicles, derived from various cells, possess unique attributes such as low immunogenicity and the ability to traverse the blood-brain barrier, making them promising tools for CNS-targeted therapies. This review provides an overview of recent progress in using exosomes for drug delivery in the treatment of neurological disorders. It will also assess administration routes, methods of drug loading, and modifications designed to enhance specificity for the CNS. Our study also addresses existing challenges and future directions for clinical implementation, underscoring the dual role of exosomes as therapeutic carriers and diagnostic biomarkers for neurological diseases.

Overview of Exosomes

Overview of Exosomes

Exosomes are stable, lipid bilayer-enclosed vesicles capable of crossing biological barriers. They can carry a wide range of molecules required for intercellular communication. Once exosomes are released from the cell where they originated, they enter a recipient cell through various pathways such as fusion, receptor-mediated endocytosis, macropinocytosis, and phagocytosis.
Stahl et al. discovered exosomes in 1983, but the exosomes were initially considered waste products released from the...

Drug Delivery: Parenteral Route

Drug Delivery: Parenteral Route

The parenteral route is a critical method of drug administration. It delivers compounds directly into the systemic circulation and bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. This approach is particularly advantageous for drugs that exhibit poor absorption or instability when administered orally.
There are three primary parenteral routes: intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), and subcutaneous (SC). The IV route introduces the drug directly into the bloodstream, ensuring immediate action. The IM route...
