Description
Summary:This book comprehensively reviews the recent progress in the pathogenesis and management approaches for neurological disorders. It focuses on understanding the molecular mechanism, pathology, and novel nanotechnology-based approaches against stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington’s disease, Multiple sclerosis, and Epilepsy. The book provides a basic understanding of the development and progression of these diseases, and recent pharmacotherapeutic approaches for their management. It also discusses challenges in drug development for neurological disorders, including preclinical models of disorders, the need for drugs to cross the blood-brain barrier, and a limited understanding of relevant pathophysiology. The book also focuses on different conventional and novel strategies for drug delivery in neurological disorders. Towards the end, the book reviews the applications of nanotechnology for the diagnosis of neurological disorders. One of the chapters is focused on the role of herbal actives in the treatment of neurological disorders. Finally, a chapter is included on nanotechnology-based approaches for the diagnosis of neurological disorders. This book is a useful resource for students and researchers of pharmaceutical sciences, life sciences, material sciences, and nano sciences
