Abstract
Current developments in nanotechnology have brought prominent benefits to design drug delivery systems for neural tissue engineering. It is crucial to choose the proper drug delivery system for numerous neural diseases such as Alzheimer disease, bipolar disorder, Parkinson disease, schizophrenia, etc., due to the pathophysiology of diseases and physicochemical properties of drugs used in their treatment. In this chapter, we focus on the drug delivery systems for neural tissue engineering. The detailed definition, features, and applications were given for drug delivery systems such as polymeric, silica, magnetic, metallic, lipid, lipoplex, and polyplex nanoparticles; quantum dots, dendrimers, nanoemulsions, micelles, liposomes, hydrogels, nanofibers, and carbon nanotubes used in neural tissue engineering. Then, the samples were described with materials, drugs, administration route, production technique, in vitro and in vivo test models, and applications. Consequently, the existing challenges and prospects for future applications of drug delivery systems for neural tissue engineering are discussed.
