Nanoformulation Strategies for Cancer Treatment provides an
up-to-date review on current developments and regulatory and
clinical challenges in the field of nanopharmaceuticals and the
effective treatment of diverse varieties of cancer. This important
reference source is ideal for biomaterials scientists and
pharmaceutical scientists working in the area of cancer diagnosis
and therapy. Due to the high cost of traditional cancer treatment
types, researchers have increasingly looked for new ways to augment
the therapeutic performance of existing drug candidates. The use of
nanotechnology-based approaches have gained significant momentum,
thus leading to the launch of a series of new drug products. As
nanopharmaceuticals improve the therapeutic performance of cancer
therapy drugs, but also provide opportunities for site-specific
drug targeting in tumors, this work is a welcomed resource on the
topics discussed.
Advances in technology permeates every aspect of life, including
the healthcare system. Nanotechnology based systems have gained
popularity based upon their promise, size, and other
characteristics. Multifunctional Nanocarriers for Contemporary
Healthcare Applications is a critical academic publication that
explores advancements in nanostructured systems, applications of
these systems in healthcare, and biomedical applications of these
systems. Featuring coverage on a wide range of topics, such as
hydrogels, controlled drug delivery systems, and nanomedicine, this
book is geared toward researchers, students, and academicians
seeking current research on advancements and applications of
nanostructured systems in the healthcare industry.
Ocular drug delivery is one of the most interesting and challenging
endeavours because the anatomy and physiology of the eye render
this organ exquisitely impervious to foreign substances including
drugs. Conventional ocular formulations are no longer adequate and
currently, nanocarriers for delivering drugs to the eye is emerging
as an important area of drug delivery research. This book,
therefore, focuses on PLGA-chitosan Nanoplexes as novel
nanocarriers for ocular therapeutics. The development of Nanoplex
carriers, their uptake mechanism and interaction with ocular
surface, and their use for the treatment of ocular keratitis are
discussed. The results should help shed some light on the use of
these novel nanocarriers for ocular therapeutics, and should be
especially useful to researchers or scientists working in the field
of nanotechnology and drug delivery, pharmaceutical companies
dealing with ocular therapeutics, and upto some extent to
professionals associated with health care.
