Nano-Warriors Against Cancer: Who Won?

Abstract

One of nanotechnology's most rapidly expanding fields, nanomedicine has the potential to revolutionize healthcare and medicine by creating ground-breaking new diagnostic and therapeutic instruments. According to the definition of nanotechnology, it is the deliberate design, characterization, manufacture, and uses of materials, structures, devices, and systems by regulating their size and form in the nanoscale range (1 to 100 nm). Currently, nanomaterials are being developed to help molecules pass past biological barriers, to access molecules, to mediate interactions between molecules, and to detect molecular changes in a sensitive, highly efficient manner [1].
