Research progress of targeted nanomaterials on cancer diagnose and therapy / 国际生物医学工程杂志

ABSTRACT

Tumor is still an unresolved health problem for human.The main obstacle for tumor cure is that precise diagnosis of tumor at the early stage can't be realized,which leads to the mortality increased year by year due to missing the best time of the treatment.Furthermore,lack of targeted ability and serious side effects of the medicine used for tumor treatment also limit the clinical application.Therefore,it is urgent to design and develop a novel targeted drug delivery vehicle.Recent studies show that targeted nanomaterials are superior on tumor-specific diagnosis and target therapy.This review will highlight the current advances in the targeted nanomaterials effect on tumor diagnosis and treatment in recent years and prospect the foreground of future development.
