Abstract
Nano metal organic frameworks (NMOFs) belong to the group of nanoporous materials. Over the decades, the conducted researches explored the area for the potential applications of NMOFs in areas like biomedical, chemical engineering and materials science. Recently, NMOFs have been explored for their potential use in cancer diagnosis and therapeutics. The excellent physico-chemical features of NMOFs also make them a potential candiadate to facilitate drug design, delivery and storage against cancer cells. In this review, we have explored the characterstic features, synthesis methods, NMOFs based drug delivery, diagnosis and imaging in various cancer types. In addition to this, we have also pondered on the stability and toxicological concerns of NMOFs. Despite, a significant research has been done for the potential use of NMOFs in cancer diagonostic and therapeutics, more information regarding the stability, in-vivo clearance, toxicology, and pharmacokinetics is still needed to ehnace the use of NMOFs in cancer diagonostic and therapeutics.
