We review studies on spin-dependent tunneling phenomena in systems containing ferromagnetic nanoparticles. We discuss preparation methods of assembling nanoparticles as well as the mechanisms and results of spin-dependent transport properties. The emphasis of this review is on characteristic spin-dependent tunneling phenomena such as enhanced tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) due to co-tunneling in the Coulomb blockade regime and sign changes of the TMR due to spin accumulation in nanoparticles.
