Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) and the resulting neurological trauma commonly result in complete or incomplete neurological dysfunctionand there are few effective treatments for primary SCI. However, the following secondary SCI, including the changes of microvasculature, inflammatory responseand oxidative stress around the injury site, may provide promising therapeutic targets. The advances of nanomaterials hold promise for delivering therapeutics to alleviate secondary SCI and promote functional recovery. In this review, we highlight recent achievements of nanomaterial-based therapy, specifically targeting blood-spinal cord barrier disruption, mitigation of the inflammatory response and lightening of oxidative stress after spinal cord injury.
