Cannabidiol nanoparticles with targeting molecules improve brain delivery and ease thinking and metabolic problems by influencing the gut-brain connection in an Alzheimer's model

Abstract

Evidence suggests a link between gut-brain axis dysfunction and metabolic disturbances in Alzheimer's disease.

  • Alzheimer's disease is associated with cognitive decline and neuronal loss.
  • Dysfunction in the gut-brain axis may contribute to the progression of Alzheimer's disease.
  • Metabolic disturbances could play a role in the development of Alzheimer's disease.
  • Cannabidiol has potential neuroprotective effects but faces challenges due to poor bioavailability and delivery to the brain.
