Transformable nanoparticles to bypass biological barriers in cancer treatment

Nanoscale Adv. 2022 Sep 14;4(21):4470-4480. doi: 10.1039/d2na00485b. eCollection 2022 Oct 25.

Abstract

Nanomedicine based drug delivery platforms provide an interesting avenue to explore for the future of cancer treatment. Here we discuss the barriers for drug delivery in cancer therapeutics and how nanomaterials have been designed to bypass these blockades through stimuli responsive transformation in the most recent update. Nanomaterials that address the challenges of each step provide a promising solution for new cancer therapeutics.
