For instance, for treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, molecules for a prospective gene silencing therapy must be delivered to the brain. The <a href="/wiki/Blood%E2%80%93brain_barrier" title="Blood–brain barrier">blood–brain barrier</a> makes it difficult to deliver molecules into the brain through the bloodstream by preventing the passage of the majority of molecules that are injected or absorbed into the blood.<sup id="cite_ref-stanford_63-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-stanford-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>63<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-mantha_64-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-mantha-64"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>64<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Thus, researchers have found that they must directly inject the molecules or implant pumps that push them into the brain.<sup id="cite_ref-stanford_63-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-stanford-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>63<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Once inside the brain, however, the molecules must move inside of the targeted cells.
