The loss and dysfunction of neurons characterize these disorders. Effective therapeutic guidelines are still elusive despite advances in our comprehension of NDs, in part because of unanswered questions about the safety and efficacy of natural therapies. On the other hand, preclinical models have shown that natural products-such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, herbs, and phytoconstituents found in freshwater and marine flora-have neuroprotective effects. These substances have the ability to work through a variety of pathways, halting cell death and reinstating neuronal activity. According to recent research, adding these phytoconstituents to nanocarriers, such as nanoparticles, can improve their selectivity and stability, possibly boosting the effectiveness of treatment. By making these agents more specific to target sites, nanotechnology presents a promising treatment option for NDs. Clinical trials assessing the efficacy of these natural compounds in treating neurological conditions are becoming more common as research advances, underscoring their potential as neuroprotective drugs. This study primarily focuses on the therapeutic efficacy of specific natural compounds and their bioactive components, which exhibit neuroprotective benefits in conditions associated with undiagnosed depression. Several preclinical models have demonstrated better results when natural derivatives are used, which has led to an increase in the use of natural therapies for treating NDs.

Pathologically, AD is associated with the accumulation of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques, tau tangles, mitochondrial dysfunction, and chronic neuroinflammation. The activation of the NOD-like receptor pyrin domain- containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome by Aβ clusters triggers microglial activation, leading to a cascade of inflammatory responses. Similarly, tau tangles stimulate neuronal and glial cells, further amplifying NLRP3 activation and perpetuating a cycle of chronic inflammation. Mitochondrial dysfunction exacerbates this process by increasing oxidative stress and inflammasome activation. Additionally, purinergic receptor P2X7 (P2X7R) activation in microglia plays a crucial role in initiating neuroinflammation, making it a potential therapeutic target. Despite extensive research, current AD therapies remain symptomatic rather than disease-modifying. Targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome offers a promising strategy for mitigating AD progression. Various small-molecule inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies, and repurposed drugs have been explored to inhibit NLRP3 activation and its downstream signaling pathways. Preclinical studies suggest that NLRP3 inhibitors effectively reduce Aβ- and tau-induced neuroinflammation while improving mitochondrial function and overall neuronal survival. This review summarizes NLRP3 inflammasome priming, activation, and the therapeutic potential of its inhibitors in AD, highlighting challenges such as tau pathology, biomarker limitations, and treatment optimization. While NLRP3 remains a promising target, most inhibitors are in the early stages with uncertain long-term efficacy and BBB penetration. Future research should explore genetic variability, sex differences, and alternative approaches to enhance neuroprotective strategies.</p>","PeriodicalId":93947,"journal":{"name":"CNS & neurological disorders drug targets","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144144961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And then, reperfusion includes components such as ion imbalance, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, Ca2+ overload, and apoptosis, which do not cause tissue damage. Autophagy also occurs in CIRI due to oxygen deficiency, and autophagy has been shown to protect cells from ischemic injury. Flavonoids are a class of essential and diversified secondary plant metabolites found in different concentrations in leaves, flowers, roots, and fruits. Various studies have shown that flavonoids have healing qualifications such as anti-inflammatory, antimutagenic, anticarcinogenic, and antimicrobial. We aim to determine how flavonoids may affect signaling pathways and kinases in rats with CIRI. The results show that the activity of JAK2/STAT3, NF-κB, RhoA/ROCK, JNK-p38, and cAMKII signaling pathways increases under CIRI, and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway is suppressed. Studies using various flavonoids (kaempferol, chrysin, naringin, naringenin, quercetin, wogonin) have shown a neuroprotective effect by reversing the situation in signaling pathways during CIRI damage.</p>","PeriodicalId":93947,"journal":{"name":"CNS & neurological disorders drug targets","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144055148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
