The increase in the variety of nano-based tools offers new possibilities to approach therapy poorly treatable tumors, which includes glioblastoma multiforme (GBM; a primary brain tumor). available nanocomplexes exhibit great potential as vehicles for targeted delivery anti-GBM compounds, including chemotherapeutics, nucleic acids, and inhibitors. main advantages nanoparticles (NPs) include improved drug stability, increased penetration blood-brain barrier, better precision tumor targeting. Importantly, alongside their drug-delivery ability, NPs may also present theranostic properties, applications imaging or photothermal malignant cells. can be classified into two categories according core, metal non-metal based. Among NPs, most studied regard GBM treatment are exosomes, liposomes, cubosomes, polymeric micelles, dendrimers, nanogels, carbon nanotubes, silica- selenium-based NPs. They characterized by satisfactory stability biocompatibility, limited toxicity, high accumulation tissue. Moreover, they easily functionalized cargo Therefore, discussed here, offer promising improving outcomes aggressive tumors.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a prevalent type of malignancy within the central nervous system (CNS) that associated with poor prognosis. The standard treatment for GBM includes surgical resection tumor, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy; yet, despite these interventions, overall outcomes remain suboptimal. blood–brain barrier (BBB), which plays crucial role in maintaining stability brain tissue under normal physiological conditions CNS, also poses significant obstacle to effective delivery therapeutic agents GBMs. Recent preclinical studies have demonstrated nanomedicine systems (NDDSs) offer promising results, demonstrating both targeting safety, thereby presenting potential solution targeted drug delivery. In this review, we first explore various strategies employed overcome BBB Subsequently, results clinical translation NDDSs are summarized, highlighting progress made. Finally, discuss advancing development accelerating their translational research through well-designed trials therapy.

Over the last decades, silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) have been studied for their applications in biomedicine as an alternative used conventional diagnostics and treatments. Since properties can be modified adjusted desired use, they many different potential medicine: diagnosis because of ability to loaded with dyes increased selectivity sensitivity, which improve quality diagnostic process. SiNPs functionalized by targeting ligands or molecules detect certain cellular processes biomarkers better precision. Targeted delivery is another fundamental use SiNPs. They could drug systems (DDS) since structure allows loading therapeutic agents other compounds, studies demonstrated biocompatibility. When are DDS, drug’s toxicity off-target effects reduced significantly, treat conditions like cancer neurological diseases even aid regenerative processes, such wound healing bone repair.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-neurotoxic, phytocannabinoid from cannabis with reported medicinal properties, including antiepileptic and anti-inflammatory activity. Several in vitro vivo studies have shown that CBD has antitumor potential against colorectal cancer (CRC), the third deadliest world. However, as different mutations influence effects can bind variety of receptors, it yet to be determined whether specific CRC affect CBD's efficacy treatment CRC.

Brain metastasis (BM) from colon cancer is associated with a poor prognosis and restricted treatment alternatives, largely due to issues related blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability the negative effects of standard chemotherapy. Nanotechnology improves efficacy by enabling targeted controlled drug delivery. This review article evaluates potential nanotechnology-based therapies for treating BM, emphasizing their capacity cross BBB, diminish metastatic growth, enhance overall survival rates. A multiple studies evaluated nanoparticles (NPs) as carriers chemotherapy, focusing on parameters including particle size, surface charge, drug-loading capacity. The study also reviewed that examined BBB penetration, in vitro tumor accumulation, vivo growth inhibition. In findings indicated NPs accumulate more efficiently BM tissue than healthy brain show significant penetration. vivo, nanotherapy markedly inhibited prolonged relative conventional chemotherapy or control treatments while exhibiting reduced side effects. Recent demonstrated plant extracts can effectively safely synthesize nanomaterials, positioning them viable environmentally friendly precursor nanomaterial production.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly invasive malignancy with poor prognosis, primarily attributable to its diffuse infiltration into adjacent brain tissue, thereby complicating effective surgical resection. Current imaging modalities often struggle accurately identify tumor boundaries.
