Neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple sclerosis (MS), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Huntington's disease (HD), represent a significant challenge to global health due to their progressive nature and the absence of curative treatments. These disorders are characterized by oxidative stress, protein misfolding, and neuroinflammation, which collectively contribute to neuronal damage and death. Recent advancements in nanotechnology have introduced nanozymes-engineered nanomaterials that mimic enzyme-like activities-as promising therapeutic agents. This review explores the multifaceted roles of nanozymes in combating oxidative stress and inflammation in neurodegenerative conditions. By harnessing their potent antioxidant properties, nanozymes can effectively scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) and restore redox balance, thereby protecting neuronal function. Their ability to modify surface properties enhances targeted delivery and biocompatibility, making them suitable for various biomedical applications. In this review, we highlight recent findings on the design, functionality, and therapeutic potential of nanozymes, emphasizing their dual role in addressing oxidative stress and pathological features such as protein aggregation. This synthesis of current research underscores the innovative potential of nanozymes as a proactive therapeutic strategy to halt disease progression and improve patient outcomes in neurodegenerative disorders.
神经退行性疾病,包括阿尔茨海默病(AD)、帕金森病(PD)、多发性硬化症(MS)、肌萎缩侧索硬化症(ALS)和亨廷顿病(HD),由于其渐进性和缺乏治愈性治疗方法,对全球健康构成了重大挑战。这些疾病的特征是氧化应激、蛋白质错误折叠和神经炎症,它们共同导致神经元损伤和死亡。纳米技术的最新进展引入了模拟酶样活性的纳米酶工程纳米材料,作为有前景的治疗剂。这篇综述探讨了纳米酶在对抗神经退行性疾病中的氧化应激和炎症方面的多方面作用。通过利用其强大的抗氧化特性,纳米酶可以有效地清除活性氧(ROS)并恢复氧化还原平衡,从而保护神经元功能。它们修饰表面性质的能力增强了靶向递送和生物相容性,使其适用于各种生物医学应用。在这篇综述中,我们重点介绍了关于纳米酶的设计、功能和治疗潜力的最新发现,强调了它们在解决氧化应激和蛋白质聚集等病理特征方面的双重作用。当前研究的综合强调了纳米酶作为一种主动治疗策略的创新潜力,以阻止神经退行性疾病的进展并改善患者的预后。
