Abstract
Nanomaterials with unparalleled physical and chemical attributes have become a cornerstone in the field of nanomedicine delivery. These materials can be engineered into various functionalized nanocarriers, which have become the focus of research. Stimulus-responsive nanodrug delivery systems (SRDDS) stand out as a sophisticated class of nanocarriers that can release drugs in response to environmental cues. Due to the complex pathogenesis and the multifaceted pathological environment of the nervous system, developing accurate and effective drug therapy with low side-effects is a formidable task. In recent years, SRDDS have been widely used in the treatment of neurological diseases. By customizing SRDDS to align with the specific microenvironment of the nervous system tissues or external stimulation, the efficacy of drug delivery can be enhanced. This review provides an in-depth look at the characteristics of the microenvironment of neurological diseases and highlights case studies of SRDDS tailored to treat these disorders based on the unique stimulation criteria of nervous system tissues or external triggers. Additionally, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the progress and future prospects of SRDDS technology in the treatment of neurological diseases, providing valuable guidance for its transition from fundamental research to clinical application.
