Counteracting Alzheimer's disease via normalizing neurovascular unit with a self-regulated multi-functional nano-modulator

The neurovascular unit(NVU)is highly responsible for cerebral homeostasis and its dysfunc-tion emerges as a critical contributor to Alzheimer's disease(AD)pathology.Hence,rescuing NVU dysfunction might be a viable approach to AD treatments.Here,we fabricated a self-regulated muti-func-tional nano-modulator(siR/PIO@RP)that can intelligently navigate to damaged blood-brain barrier and release therapeutical cargoes for synergetic AD therapy.The resulting siR/PIO@RP enables self-regulation of its distribution in accordance with the physio/pathological state(low/high RAGE expression)of the target site via a feedback loop.siR/PIO@RP is capable of performing intricate tasks and goes beyond the capabilities of single-target therapeutic agents utilized in AD therapy,such as reducing cerebral Aβ load,relieving neuroinflammation,and alleviating the dysfunction of NVU.Overall,the current study provides proof of concept that normalizing NVU holds promise as a means of alleviating AD symptoms.
