The Uniqueness of Albumin as a Carrier in Nanodrug Delivery

Molecular Pharmaceutics, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 18(5), С. 1862 - 1894

Опубликована: Март 31, 2021

Albumin is an appealing carrier in nanomedicine because of its unique features. First, it the most abundant protein plasma, endowing high biocompatibility, biodegradability, nonimmunogenicity, and safety for clinical application. Second, albumin chemical structure conformation allows interaction with many different drugs, potentially protecting them from elimination metabolism vivo, thus improving their pharmacokinetic properties. Finally, can interact receptors overexpressed diseased tissues cells, providing a feature active targeting disease site without addition specific ligands to nanocarrier. For this reason, albumin, characterized by extended serum half-life around 19 days, has potential promoting extension targeted delivery drugs. Therefore, article focuses on importance as nanodrug hydrophobic taking advantage passive well Particular attention paid breakthrough NAB-Technology, emphasis advantages Nab-Paclitaxel (Abraxane), compared solvent-based formulations Paclitaxel, i.e., CrEL-paclitaxel (Taxol) setting. role carrying anticancer compounds depicted, particular focus albumin-based that are currently undergoing trials. The sheds light power endogenous substance, such drug system, signifies vehicle performance biological systems, highlights possible future trends use system.

Stimuli‐responsive nanotherapeutics for precision drug delivery and cancer therapy

Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology, Год журнала: 2018, Номер 11(1)

Опубликована: Май 4, 2018

Cancer remains one of the world's leading causes death. However, most conventional chemotherapeutic drugs only show a narrow therapeutic window in patients because their inability to discriminate cancer cells from healthy cells. Nanoparticle-based therapeutics (termed nanotherapeutics) have emerged as potential solutions mitigate many obstacles posed by these free drugs. Deep insights into knowledge tumor microenvironment and materials science make it possible construct nanotherapeutics that are able release cargoes response variety internal stimuli external triggers. Therefore, such highly sophisticated nanosystems could help impede premature toxic blood circulation or tissues, thus enhancing safety profiles encapsulated In this context, review offers comprehensive overview several specific stimuli, including (e.g., pH, temperature, enzyme, redox, H2 O2 ) magnetic, photo, ultrasound). We envision applications smart can benefit provide good chance for clinical translation nanoparticle formulas. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine Oncologic Disease Diagnostic Tools Nanodevices vitro Nanoparticle-Based Sensing.
