| Abstract | Metal ions are involved in Aβ aggregate deposition and neurotoxicity via various processes, including acceleration of Aβ aggregation, disruption of normal metal homeostasis, and formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Although metal chelation is a promising therapeutic strategy for Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the widespread use of chelation therapy faces a significant problem; namely, it is difficult to differentiate toxic metals associated with Aβ plaques from those required by normal metal homeostasis. Furthermore, the multifactorial nature of AD and the current lack of an accepted unitary theory to account for AD neurodegeneration also restrict AD treatment through a single therapeutic strategy. This paper presents a novel bifunctional platform by integrating nonpharmacological and pharmacological cues into one system for AD treatment. This electrically responsive drug release platform, based on conducting polymer polypyrrole (PPy) incorporated with graphene-mesoporous silica nanohybrids (GSN) nanoreserviors, could realize on-demand controlled drug delivery with spatial and temporal control. Electrochemical stimulation can treat peripheral nerve injury (PNI) to stimulate neurite outgrowth. This novel system can also effectively inhibit Aβ aggregate formation, decrease cellular ROS, and protect cells from Aβ-related toxicity. The purpose of this research is to promote the design of noninvasive remote-controlled multifunctional systems for AD treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
