Abstract
Brain and nervous system disorders represent a large unmet medical need. Central nervous system drug development is hampered by the restricted transport of drugs across the blood-brain barrier. Different strategies to deliver drugs to the brain have been developed. We discuss the current status of development of liposomal drug delivery to the brain. There is a growing interest in targeted delivery of liposomes to the brain and much progress has been made towards successful development of novel treatments for patients with devastating brain diseases.
