Abstract
Conjugated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) have been shown to be promising in cancer-targeted accumulation and is biocompatible, easily excreted, and possesses little toxicity. The present study aims at reviewing the recent advancements in carbon nanotubes especially SWNT for improving the treatment of breast cancer. Nanotube drug delivery system is a potential high efficacy therapy with minimum side effects for future tumor therapy with low doses of drug.
期刊介绍:
Drug Research (formerly Arzneimittelforschung) is an international peer-reviewed journal with expedited processing times presenting the very latest research results related to novel and established drug molecules and the evaluation of new drug development. A key focus of the publication is translational medicine and the application of biological discoveries in the development of drugs for use in the clinical environment. Articles and experimental data from across the field of drug research address not only the issue of drug discovery, but also the mathematical and statistical methods for evaluating results from industrial investigations and clinical trials. Publishing twelve times a year, Drug Research includes original research articles as well as reviews, commentaries and short communications in the following areas: analytics applied to clinical trials chemistry and biochemistry clinical and experimental pharmacology drug interactions efficacy testing pharmacodynamics pharmacokinetics teratology toxicology.
