Innovation of Nano-Technology in Cancer Treatment- A Systematic Overview

Abstract

Cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality which is the result of unhealthy practices in daily lifestyle. Although extensive techniques are in use for diagnosis as well as treatment with intention of reduction in death rate, chronic pain, and improvement in the life of valiant. Cancer therapy with nanotechnology proves to be an effective solution .Nanotechnology along with the diverse conventional therapeutic techniques imparts eminent outcomes. Nanomaterials are increasingly used as drug carriers for cancer therapy. Nanomaterials also appeal to researchers in the areas of cancer diagnosis and biomarker discovery. Among the newly developed nanomedicine and nanodevices such as quantum dots, nanowires, nanotubes, nanocantilevers, and nanopores, nanoshells and nanoparticlesare the most promising applications for various cancer treatments. This article aims at giving a present status of nanotechnology in cancer therapy and the prospects of nanomaterials as drug carriers for future clinical applications.
