Lung cancer remains a major public health problem both in terms of incidence and specific mortality despite recent developments prevention, such as smoking reduction policies clinical management advances. Better lung prognosis could be achieved by early accurate diagnosis improved therapeutic interventions. Nanotechnology is dynamic fast-developing field; various medical applications have been developed deployed, more exist proofs concepts or experimental models. We aim to summarize current knowledge relevant the use nanotechnology management. Starting from chemical structure-based classification nanoparticles, we identify review practical implementations roughly organized diagnostic scope, ranging innovative contrast agents targeted drug carriers. Available data are presented starting with standards practice moving highly methods concept; particularities, advantages, limits future directions explored, focusing on potential impact prognosis.

Carbon Nanostructures as promising Targeted Drug Delivery systems of Anticancer Agents

International Journal of Cancer and Biomedical Research, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 8(1), С. 1 - 15

Nanotechnology has opened new paths for cancer treatment, with carbon nanostructures (CNSs) becoming drug delivery vehicles. This review examines fullerenes, nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, and their derivatives as effective vehicles anticancer therapies. Their high surface area, ease of functionalization, exceptional thermal electrical conductivity, ability to cross biological barriers make them ideal candidates improving specificity, bioavailability, therapeutic efficacy while minimizing systemic toxicity. The biocompatibility changeable surfaces CNSs provide targeted treat cell heterogeneity. precision targeting reduces chemotherapy side effects. Adding ligands, antibodies, peptides makes more selective cells, letting the payload go tumor site. Because they absorb a lot light, graphene-based can be used in photothermal therapy photoacoustic imaging keep an eye on cancers without cutting open. multimodal treatment techniques, such radio-chemotherapy, may improve treatment. After clinical research improvements, could transform precise, efficient, less toxic choices. Thus, using marks breakthrough nanomedicine age focused treatments.
