What Role Does Nanotechnology Play in Cancer Therapy?
Nanotechnology has significantly advanced cancer therapy. Nanoparticles can be designed to deliver chemotherapeutic agents directly to tumor cells, reducing damage to healthy tissues and minimizing side effects. These nanoparticles can also be engineered to overcome drug resistance mechanisms in cancer cells. Additionally, they can be used for imaging and monitoring the treatment response, providing a theranostic approach that combines therapy and diagnostics.
