Abstract
Nanotechnology-enabled drug delivery strategies have made significant advances in recent years. While there are many potential applications for nanotechnology-enabled drug delivery, their role in kidney-related conditions is especially significant. Innovations in chemistry have allowed for the creation of nano-sized delivery strategies. Nanoparticles, particles in the 1–100 nm range, can be used to effectively introduce drugs into the body where they last long enough to elicit therapeutic action before leaving the system in fragments through the kidney. We discuss recent advances in nano-encapsulation strategies to circumvent drug-induced kidney injury and targeted nanomedicines to treat kidney diseases.
期刊介绍:
The aims and scope of Current Opinion in Toxicology is to systematically provide the reader with timely and provocative views and opinions of the highest qualified and recognized experts on current advances in selected topics within the field of toxicology. The goal is that Current Opinion in Toxicology will be an invaluable source of information and perspective for researchers, teachers, managers and administrators, policy makers and students. Division of the subject into sections: For this purpose, the scope of Toxicology is divided into six selected high impact themed sections, each of which is reviewed once a year: Mechanistic Toxicology, Metabolic Toxicology, Risk assessment in Toxicology, Genomic Toxicology, Systems Toxicology, Translational Toxicology.
