What are Some Examples of Nanotechnology-Based Combination Therapies?
Several examples illustrate the potential of nanotechnology in combination therapies:
Cancer Treatment: Nanoparticles can deliver a combination of chemotherapeutic drugs and gene therapy agents to cancer cells, enhancing treatment efficacy and overcoming drug resistance. Infectious Diseases: Nanocarriers can be used to deliver a combination of antibiotics and immune-modulating agents to fight resistant bacterial infections. Neurodegenerative Diseases: Nanoparticles can cross the blood-brain barrier to deliver a combination of neuroprotective drugs and anti-inflammatory agents to the brain.
