Abstract

Nervous system diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, stroke, and Parkinson's disease, are spreading around the world. These diseases involve complicatedly pathological processes, and so far, there are no effective medicines for therapy. Another type of psychiatric disorder is induced by drugs. The synthetic drugs, represented by methamphetamine, are becoming widely abuse. At present, the cure of methamphetamine dependence is mainly symptomatic treatment, but the recurrence rate is very high. As the common brain impairments in neuropsychiatric disease, it is necessary to summary novel strategies effectively restored brain function. In recent years, carbon nanotubes have attracted the attention due to their unique properties in the field of translational medicine. Recently, new advances reported that carbon nanotubes as a nanomedicine to treat various neuropsychiatric disorders. The purpose of this review is to introduce the therapeutic approaches and mechanisms of carbon nanotubes on neuropsychiatric disorders.
