Abstract
Modern nanotechnologies provide various possibilities for efficiently delivering drugs to biological targets. This review focuses on using functionalized gold nanoparticles (GNPs) as a drug delivery platform. Owing to their exceptional size and surface characteristics, GNPs are a perfect drug delivery vehicle for targeted and selective distribution. Several in vitro and in vivo tests have shown how simple it is to tailor these particles to administer chemical medications straight to tumors. The GNP surface can also be coated with ligands to modify drug release or improve selectivity. Moreover, the pharmacological activity can be enhanced by using the photothermal characteristics of the particles.
