Abstract
Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic progressive neurodegenerative disease that constitutes the third most common cause of death among elderly individuals. AD patients suffer from behavioral problems regularly, like memory loss, thinking deficits, and cognitive disorders. Currently, the incidence rate of AD has been on the rise worldwide. Therefore, it is imperative to develop effective strategies for the treatment and prevention of AD. The inherent characteristics of low‐dimensional nanomaterials, primarily their smaller size and surface structure, make them well‐suited for fulfilling the essential requirements of therapeutic drug design. Consequently, these nanomaterials offer a highly appealing and alternative approach to treating AD. Here, the low‐dimensional nanomaterials used in the treatment of AD to provide new ideas, methods, and comprehensive perspectives for the management of AD are reviewed. This review will advance the comprehensive understanding of the potential of low‐dimensional nanomaterials in the field of neuro medicine, which also will have a positive impact on future research.
