Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The population is aging in the world, and the elderly population is expected to exceed 1.4 billion by 2050. Patients with central nervous system (CNS) diseases is expected to increase exponentially in the aging society. Although pharmaceutical companies have been making strenuous efforts to develop CNS drugs, the success rate of CNS drug is still the lowest among diseases. One of the reasons is that blood-brain barrier (BBB) prevents drug delivery to the brain. In this study, we attempted to develop a method to deliver drugs to the brain across the BBB, and we proved a novel concept for drug delivery to the brain. We will investigate safety and efficacy of the developed method.
