Abstract

RECENT DEVELOPMENT APPLICATIONS OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN CANCER: A LITERATURE REVIEW OF IMAGING AND TREATMENT

Yogesh Nikalaje and *Vaibhav Shend

ABSTRACT

Recent advances in the application of nanotechnology in medicine, often referred to as nanomedicine, may revolutionize our approach to healthcare. Cancer nanotechnology is a relatively novel interdisciplinary area of comprehensive research that combines the basic sciences, like biology and chemistry, with engineering and medicine. Nanotechnology involves creating and utilizing the constructs of variable chemistry and architecture with dimensions at the nanoscale level comparable to those of biomolecules or biological vesicles in the human body. Operating with sub- molecular interactions, it offers the potential for unique and novel approaches with a broad spectrum of applications in cancer treatment including new and efficient therapeutic approaches to cancer treatment that can overcome numerous barriers posed by the human body compared to conventional approaches. Improvement in chemotherapeutic delivery through enhanced solubility and prolonged retention time has been the focus of research in nanomedicine. The sub-microscopic size and flexibility of nanoparticles offers the promise of selective tumor access. Formulated from a variety of substances, nanoparticles are configured to transport myriad substances in a controlled and targeted fashion to malignant cells while minimizing the damage to normal cells. They are designed and developed to take advantage of the morphology and characteristics of a malignant tumor, such as leaky tumor vasculature, specific cell surface antigen expression, and rapid proliferation. Nanotechnology a revolutionary role in both diagnostics (imaging, immune-detection) and anti- angiogenesis). Moreover, nanoparticles may be designed to offer a multifunctional approach operating simultaneously as an effective and efficient anticancer drug as well as an imaging material to evaluate the efficacy of the drug for treatment follow-up. In recent years, nanomedicine has exhibited strong promise and progress in radically changing the approach to cancer detection and treatment.

Keywords: Nanotechnology; Cancer treatment; Imaging; Quantum dot; Carbon nanotube.
