Abstract
Molecular imprinting has become an effective technology in the realm of diagnosing diseases, providing unparalleled specificity and sensitivity. This method is a promising trend in current medical research. This review examines the utilization of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) in theranostic that integrates diagnostic functionalities for personalized medicine. The present work briefly discusses the fundamental concepts of molecular imprinting and how it has evolved into a versatile platform. Subsequently, the utilization of MIPs in the advancement of biosensors is focused, specifically emphasizing their contribution to the detection and diagnosis of diseases. The therapeutic potential of MIPs, focusing on targeted drug delivery and controlled release systems and the integration of MIPs into theranostic platforms is explored through case studies, showcasing the technology’s ability to simultaneously diagnose and treat diseases. Finally, we address the current challenges facing MIPs and discuss future perspectives, emphasizing the potential of this technology to revolutionize the next generation.
期刊介绍:
Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results.
We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
