It has been established by medical practitioners that current wound therapies are not perfectly effective and are far from satisfactory. Meanwhile, nanotechnologies have made it possible to develop pharmaceutical formulations that can elevate the effectiveness of conventional pharmacotherapies to entirely new heights. Most nanostructured biomaterials used to treat wounds, including those that have helped establish this fascinating subject, have been polymeric. The bibliographic analysis presented here shows a steady growth in the research output of studies on the use of polymeric nanoparticles in wound healing therapies. This article provides an overview of polymeric nanoparticles for the treatment of wounds with an emphasis on different chemistries and polymer-drug combinations that have been proven the most effective. The wound age, pathophysiology, wound healing treatments of the present and past, as well as the physicochemical nature and methods for the synthesis of polymeric nanoparticles, are all covered in the opening parts of the review. The existing polymeric nano-drug delivery systems with the greatest promise for wound healing and skin regeneration are subsequently addressed and their potentials summarized.</p>","PeriodicalId":19774,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical nanotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141158288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This severe corneal infection typically suppurates and eventually ulcerates, ultimately causing blindness or decreased vision. According to epidemiological studies, FK is more common in warm, humid places with an agricultural economy. The use of nanoemulsion carriers for ocular fungal infection has been promoting better treatment and patient compliance. The persistent fungal infection like FK, affecting particularly the stroma heralds complications thereby posing difficulty in diagnosis and treatment. To help treat refractory cases and improve outcomes, recently targeted drug delivery techniques and novel antifungal drugs shall be explored. A delay in diagnosis may cause corneal fungal infections to have irreversible consequences, which cannot be avoided. However, infections can develop into ocular perforation even after receiving intense care. The commonly used chemotherapy for FK is based on topical (natamycin 5% is typically first-line therapy) and systemic administration of azole drugs. To address the problems related to better treatment, various nanoemulsion carriers were discussed. Novel drug delivery systems based on nanoemulsions are a viable therapeutic option for treating keratomycosis and may be a candidate method for overcoming obstacles in the treatment of many other ocular illnesses when combined with different hydrophobic medicines. With a brief explanation of the pathogenesis, this article seeks to give readers a thorough analysis of current trends, various treatment choices, and care strategies for fungal keratitis.</p>","PeriodicalId":19774,"journal":{"name":"Pharmaceutical nanotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141155583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Novel drug delivery vehicles can be designed by programming the supramolecular features of biomolecules to achieve multiple therapeutic goals at once, including efficient in vivo transport and targeted drug administration. Proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides can all be engineered into multipurpose nanomedicines. Even while numerous cancer medications reduce mortality, they are still insufficient. Early cancer cell detection and high-specificity therapeutic administration optimise treatment and prevent toxicity. Nanotechnology is improving cancer diagnosis and treatment due to increased systemic toxicity and refractoriness with current methods. Nanotechnology-based immunotherapeutic drugs have reduced cancer cell invasiveness while protecting healthy cells in several cancer types. Carbon nanotubes, polymeric micelles, and liposomes improve cancer medication pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
