Abstract
Nanotheranostics and theranostic nanomedicine are innovative strategies that allow an integrative approach an integrative approach related to diagnostic and therapeutic properties in one single entity in order to pursue an extremely innovative, personalized medicine for diseases and cancer treatment. Theranostic nanomedicine is a convergent field between nanotechnology, chemistry, materials science, and synthetic biology. Nanotheranostics can be loaded with a multiple choice of therapeutic drugs, targeting moieties, and diagnostic dyes to simultaneously perform diagnosis and specific targeted therapy (theranostics-applied tools) by directly connecting the detection of a biosensor to a therapeutic return. Nanotheranostics have three main properties: nanodimensions, therapeutic effect, and diagnostic agent. Several types of nanocarriers were developed so far for nanotheranostics, which include dendrimers, liposomes, micelles, polymer conjugations, metal and inorganic nanoparticles (NPs), solid lipid NPs, carbon nanotubes. The great goal of nanotheranostics could be in future to be used for cancer treatment, noninvasively discover and target image biomarkers, biomarker identification, drug delivery.
