Abstract
In the treatment of central nervous system disease, the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a major obstruction to drug delivery that must be overcome. In this study, we propose a brain-targeted delivery strategy based on selective opening of the BBB. This strategy allows some simple bare nanoparticles to enter the brain when mixed with special opening material; however, the BBB still maintains the ability to completely block molecules from passing through. Based on the screening of BBB opening and matrix delivery materials, we determined that phospholipase A2-catalyzed 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoserine liposomes can efficiently carry drugs into the brain immediately. At an effective dose, this delivery system is safe, especially with its effect on the BBB being reversible. This mix & act delivery system has a simple structure and rapid preparation, making it a strong potential candidate for drug delivery across the BBB.
