What Are the Advantages of Nanoparticle-Based Drug Delivery?
One of the significant challenges in cancer treatment is the delivery of chemotherapeutic agents to the tumor site while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. Nanoparticles can be designed to deliver drugs directly to cancer cells, enhancing the efficacy of the treatment and reducing side effects. These drug delivery systems can be engineered to release their payload in response to specific stimuli like pH changes, temperature, or enzymatic activity, ensuring targeted therapy.
