Abstract
Restoration of blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction, which drives worse outcomes of ischemic stroke, is a potential target for therapeutic opportunities, whereas a sealed BBB blocks the therapeutics entrance into the brain, making the BBB protection strategy paradoxical. Post ischemic stroke, hypoxia/hypoglycemia provokes the up-regulation of transmembrane glucose transporters and iron transporters due to multiple metabolic disorders, especially in brain endothelial cells. Herein, we develop a myricetin oligomer-derived nanostructure doped with Ce to bypass the BBB which is cointermediated by glucose transporters and iron transporters such as glucose transporters 1 (GLUT1), sodium/glucose cotransporters 1 (SGLT1), and transferrin(Tf) reporter (TfR). Moreover, it exhibits BBB restoration capacity by regulating the expression of tight junctions (TJs) through the activation of protective autophagy. The myricetin oligomers scaffold not only acts as targeting moiety but is the prominent active entity that inherits all diverse pharmacological activities of myricetin. The suppression of oxidative damage, M1 microglia activation, and inflammatory factors makes it a multitasking nanoagent with a single component as the scaffold, targeting domain and curative components.

Abstract
Inflammation-associated diseases encompass a range of infectious diseases and non-infectious inflammatory diseases, which continuously pose one of the most serious threats to human health, attributed to factors such as the emergence of new pathogens, increasing drug resistance, changes in living environments and lifestyles, and the aging population. Despite rapid advancements in mechanistic research and drug development for these diseases, current treatments often have limited efficacy and notable side effects, necessitating the development of more effective and targeted anti-inflammatory therapies. In recent years, the rapid development of nanotechnology has provided crucial technological support for the prevention, treatment, and detection of inflammation-associated diseases. Various types of nanoparticles (NPs) play significant roles, serving as vaccine vehicles to enhance immunogenicity and as drug carriers to improve targeting and bioavailability. NPs can also directly combat pathogens and inflammation. In addition, nanotechnology has facilitated the development of biosensors for pathogen detection and imaging techniques for inflammatory diseases. This review categorizes and characterizes different types of NPs, summarizes their applications in the prevention, treatment, and detection of infectious and inflammatory diseases. It also discusses the challenges associated with clinical translation in this field and explores the latest developments and prospects. In conclusion, nanotechnology opens up new possibilities for the comprehensive management of infectious and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is one of the major causes of death and disability worldwide, and an effective and timely treatment of ischemic stroke has been a challenge because of the narrow therapeutic window and the poor affinity with thrombus of the thrombolytic agent. In this study, rPZDCu, a multifunctional nanoparticle (NP) with the effects of thrombolysis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging, and neuroprotection, was synthesized based on an ultrasmall Cu4.6O NP, the thrombolytic agent rt-PA, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which is a major component of the neuronal membrane. rPZDCu showed strong thrombus-targeting ability, which was achieved by the platelet cell membrane coating on the NP surface, and a good thrombolytic effect in both the common carotid artery clot model and embolic middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model of rats. Furthermore, rPZDCu exhibited a good escape from the phagocytosis of macrophages, effective promotion of the polarization of microglia, and efficient recovery of neurobiological and behavioral functions in the embolic MCAO model of rats. This is a heuristic report of (1) the Cu0/Cu+ NP for the treatments of brain diseases, (2) the integration of DHA and ROS scavengers for central nervous system therapies, and (3) diselenide-based ROS-responsive NPs for ischemic stroke treatments. This study also offers an example of cell membrane-camouflaged stimuli-responsive nanomedicine for brain-targeting drug delivery.

Abstract
Stroke is a serious public health problem that raises expenses for society and causes long-term impairment and death. However, due to restricted blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetration, there are few treatment alternatives for treating stroke. Recanalization techniques, neuroprotective medications, and recovery techniques are all forms of treatment. The ischemic stroke treatment window is too narrow for logical and efficient therapy, and detection is possible only in advanced stages. BBB integrity disruption, neurotoxicity, and the brief half-life of therapeutic thrombolytics are the key molecular pathogenic causes of ischemic stroke. Existing neuroprotective drugs' inability to promote the recovery of ischemic brain tissue after a stroke is another factor that contributes to the disease's progression, chronic nature, and severity. A possible approach to getting around these medication restrictions and boosting the effectiveness of therapies is nanotechnology. In order to get around these drug-related restrictions and boost the effectiveness of therapies for neurological conditions such as stroke, nanotechnology has emerged as a viable option. These problems might be avoided by using nanoparticle-based methods to create a thrombolytic medication that is safe to use after the tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) treatment window has passed. The idea of using biomimetic nanoparticles in the future for the treatment of ischemic stroke through immunotherapy and stem cell therapy is highlighted, along with recent advancements in the study of nanomaterials for ischemic stroke diagnostics and treatment.

Abstract
Stroke is responsible for 11% of all deaths worldwide, the majority of which are caused by ischemic strokes, thus making the need to urgently find safe and effective therapies. Today, these can be cured either by mechanical thrombectomy when the thrombus is accessible, or by intravenous injection of fibrinolytics. However, the latter present several limitations, such as potential severe side effects, few eligible patients and low rate of partial and full recovery. To design safer and more effective treatments, nanomedicine appeared in this medical field a few decades ago. This review will explain why nanoparticle-based therapies and imaging techniques are relevant for ischemic stroke management. Then, it will present the different nanoparticle types that have been recently developed to treat this pathology. It will also study the various targeting strategies used to bring nanoparticles to the stroke site, thereby limiting side effects and improving the therapeutic efficacy. Finally, this review will present the few clinical studies testing nanomedicine on stroke and discuss potential causes for their scarcity.

Abstract
Stroke is currently one of the primary causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Unfortunately, there has been a lack of effective stroke treatment. Therefore, novel treatment strategies are needed to decrease stroke-induced morbidity and promote the patient's quality of life. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been recognized as one of the major causes of brain injury after ischemic stroke. Antioxidant therapy seems to be an effective treatment in the management of oxidative stress relevant to inflammatory disorders like stroke. However, the in vivo efficacy of traditional anti-oxidative substances is greatly limited due to their non-specific distribution and poor localization in the disease region. In recent years, antioxidant nanoparticles (NPs) have demonstrated a clinical breakthrough for stroke treatment. Some NPs have intrinsic antioxidant properties and act as antioxidants to scavenge ROS. Moreover, NPs provide protection to the antioxidant agents/enzymes while effectively delivering them into unreachable areas like the brain. Because of their nanoscale dimensions, NPs are able to efficiently pass through the BBB, and easily reach the damaged site. Here, we discuss the challenges, recent advances, and perspectives of antioxidant NPs in stroke treatment.

Abstract
Targeting nanoparticle is a very promising therapeutic approach that can precisely target specific sites to treat diseases. Research on nanoscale drug delivery systems has made great progress in the past few years, making targeting nanoparticles a promising prospect. However, selective targeting nanoparticles designed for specific organs still face several challenges, one of which is the unknown fate of nanoparticles in vivo. This review starts with the in vivo journey of nanoparticles and describes the biological barriers and some targeting strategies for nanoparticles to target specific organs. Then, through the collection of literature in recent years, the design of selective targeting nanoparticles for various organs is illustrated, which provides a reference strategy for people to study the design of selective organ targeting nanoparticles. Ultimately, the prospect and challenge of selective organ targeting nanoparticles are discussed by collecting the data of clinical trials and marketed drugs.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke, a significant neurovascular disorder, currently lacks effective restorative medication. However, recently developed nanomedicines bring renewed promise for alleviating ischemia's effects and facilitating the healing of neurological and physical functions. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the efficacy of nanotherapies in animal models of stroke and their potential impact on future stroke therapies. We also assessed the scientific quality of current research focused on nanoparticle-based treatments for ischemic stroke in animal models. We summarized the effectiveness of nanotherapies in these models, considering multiple factors such as their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and angiogenetic properties, as well as their safety and biodistribution. We conclude that the application of nanomedicines may reduce infarct size and improve neurological function post-stroke without causing significant organ toxicity.

Abstract
Treatments for disease in the central nervous system (CNS) are limited because of difficulties in agent penetration through the blood-brain barrier, achieving optimal dosing, and mitigating off-target effects. The prospect of precision medicine in CNS treatment suggests an opportunity for therapeutic nanotechnology, which offers tunability and adaptability to address specific diseases as well as targetability when combined with antibodies (Abs). Here, we review the strategies to attach Abs to nanoparticles (NPs), including conventional approaches of chemisorption and physisorption as well as attempts to combine irreversible Ab immobilization with controlled orientation. We also summarize trends that have been observed through studies of systemically delivered Ab-NP conjugates in animals. Finally, we discuss the future outlook for Ab-NPs to deliver therapeutics into the CNS.

Abstract
Oxidative stress after ischemia reperfusion can cause irreversible brain damage. Thus, it is vital to timely consume excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and conduct molecular imaging monitoring on the brain injury site. However, previous studies have focused on how to scavenge ROS while ignoring the mechanism of relieving the reperfusion injury. Herein, we reported a layered double hydroxide (LDH)-based nanozyme (denoted as ALDzyme), which was fabricated by the confinement of astaxanthin (AST) with LDH. This ALDzyme can mimic natural enzymes, which include superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT). Furthermore, the SOD-like activity of ALDzyme is 16.3 times higher than that of CeO2 (a typical ROS scavenger). Based on these enzyme-mimicking properties, this one-of-a-kind ALDzyme offers strong anti-oxidative properties as well as high biocompatibility. Importantly, this unique ALDzyme can establish an efficient magnetic resonance imaging platform, thus guiding the in vivo details. As a result, the infarct area can be reduced by 77% after reperfusion therapy, and the neurological impairment score can be lowered from 3-4 to 0-1. Density functional theory computations can reveal more about the mechanism of this ALDzyme's significant ROS consumption. These findings provide a method for unraveling the neuroprotection application process in ischemia reperfusion injury using an LDH-based nanozyme as a remedial nanoplatform.

Abstract
Small interfering RNA (siRNA)-based gene therapy represents a promising strategy for tumor treatment. Novel gene vectors that can achieve targeted delivery of siRNA to the tumor cells without causing any side effects are urgently needed. To this end, the large amino acid mimicking carbon dots with guanidinium functionalization (LAAM GUA-CDs) are designed and synthesized by choosing arginine and dopamine hydrochloride as precursors. LAAM GUA-CDs can load siRNA through the multiple hydrogen bonds between their guanidinium groups and phosphate groups in siRNA. Meanwhile, the amino acid groups at the edges of LAAM GUA-CDs endow them the capacity to target tumors. After loading siBcl-2 as a therapeutic agent, LAAM GUA-CDs/siBcl-2 has a high tumor inhibition rate of up to 68%, which is twice more than that of commercial Lipofectamine 2000. Furthermore, LAAM GUA-CDs do not cause side effect during antitumor treatment owing to their high tumor-targeting ability, thus providing a versatile strategy for tumor-targeted siRNA delivery and cancer therapy.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive tumor of the central nervous system and remains universally lethal due to lack of effective treatment options and their inefficient delivery to the brain. Here the development of multifunctional polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) for effective treatment of GBM is reported. The NPs are synthesized using a novel glutathione (GSH)-reactive poly (2,2″-thiodiethylene 3,3″-dithiodipropionate) (PTD) polymer and engineered for brain penetration through neutrophil elastase-triggered shrinkability, iRGD-mediated targeted delivery, and lexiscan-induced autocatalysis. It is found that the resulting lexiscan-loaded, iRGD-conjugated, shrinkable PTD NPs, or LiPTD NPs, efficiently penetrate brain tumors with high specificity after intravenous administration. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that LiPTD NPs are capable of efficient encapsulation and delivery of chemotherapy doxorubicin and sonosensitizer chlorin e6 to achieve combined chemotherapy and sonodynamic therapy (SDT). It is demonstrated that the capability of GSH depletion of LiPTD NPs further augments the tumor cell killing effect triggered by SDT. As a result, treatment with LiPTD NPs effectively inhibits tumor growth and prolongs the survival of tumor-bearing mice. This study may suggest a potential new approach for effective GBM treatment.
