Nano-drug Delivery System: Applications in Veterinary Medicine and Animal Health
نویسنده
چکیده
Nano-drug delivery systems have several advantages compared to the traditional forms of drugs. A nanocarrier sytem transport the drug to the site of action, hence, its influence on vital tissues and undesirable side effects can be minimized. Accumulation of therapeutic compounds in the target site increases and, consequently, the required doses of drugs are lower. Cell-specific targeting can be accomplished by attaching drugs to specially designed nanocarriers. Various nanostructures, including liposomes, polymers, dendrimers, carbon materials, and magnetic nanoparticles, have been tested as carriers in drug delivery systems.

متن کاملDesign, Synthesis and Characterization of Nano niosomal Delivery system Containing paclitaxel drug for Drug Delivery to Osteosarcoma Cell Line (Saos-2)
Introduction: Osteosarcoma is one of the cancers that current treatment strategies using chemotherapy drugs have not been very successful due to multiple drug resistance and harmful side effects. The use of nano-niosomal systems in the delivery of paclitaxel is one of the attractive approaches to overcome these limitations. paclitaxel is a powerful anticancer agent used in the treatment of many...
