Ultrasound Combined With Microbubbles Loading BDNF Retrovirus to Open Blood–Brain Barrier for Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease

Background: Brain-derived nerve growth factor (BDNF) is a promising effective target for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). BDNF, which has a high molecular weight, has difficulty in crossing the blood–brain barrier (BBB). The study aimed to prepare microbubbles loading brain-derived nerve g...
