The battle against TC is hampered by the lack of effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. The effectiveness of surgical procedures, such as thyroidectomy and nutraceutical treatments, are accompanied by several difficulties and still require further research. Alternatively, the DNA-damaging traditional model of chemotherapy is linked to poor solubility, untoward systemic effects, and associated cytotoxicity, instituting an urgent need to establish a specialized, factual, and reliable delivery tool. In order to overcome the limitations of conventional delivery systems, nanotechnology-based delivery tools have shown the potential of articulating endless inherent implementations. The probable benefits of emerging nanotechnology-based diagnostic techniques include rapid screening and early illness diagnosis, which draws investigators to investigate and assess the possibility of this treatment for TC. Subsequently, organic (e.g., liposomes, polymer-based, and dendrimers) and inorganic (e.g., gold, carbon-based, mesoporous silica, magnetic, and quantum dots) NPs and hybrids thereof (liposome-silica, chitosan-carbon, and cell membrane-coated) have been projected for TC biomarker screening, therapy, and detection, providing better outcomes than traditional diagnostic and treatment techniques. Therefore, this review aims to offer a broad perspective on nanoplatform in TC, accompanied by present and potential future treatment options and screening techniques; including the innovative patents utilized in the realm of thyroid cancer using nanocarriers. The goal of cancer therapy has traditionally been to \"search a thorn in a hayloft\"; therefore, this article raises the possibility of treating TC using nano-oncotherapeutics, which might be useful clinically and will encourage future researchers to explore this tool's potential and drawbacks.</p>","PeriodicalId":49324,"journal":{"name":"Recent Patents on Nanotechnology","volume":" ","pages":"381-394"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41240277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Amyloid beta (Aβ)- accumulating macromolecules in the brain are the primary cause of the disease's chronic symptoms, according to analysis carried out during the last 20 years. Plaques and clumps of amyloid- build up in the brain, obstructing neuronal signals and destroying neural connections. Tau, a protein that results in the formation of \"neurofibrillary tangles\" in the brain, another hallmark of neuronal death, has been the focus of a lot of research. Dendrimers Delivery (DDs) is one of the most promising advancements in nanotechnology for biomedical applications, particularly drug delivery. Some of the main categories of dendrimers employed in the successful management of neurodegenerative illnesses are polyamidoamine dendrimers (PAMAM) dendrimers, polypropylenimine dendrimers (PPI), Poly-l-lysine dendrimers (PLL), and carbosilane dendrimers. The tight blood-brain barrier (BBB), which limits the entry of medications or therapeutic agents, makes it difficult to treat central nervous system disorders. Dendrimers have attracted the attention of scientists more than other non-invasive methods of drug delivery across the BBB and improve the uptake of medicines in the brain's target tissues. The major benefits of dendrimers include their adaptability, biocompatibility, ability to load pharmaceuticals into the core and surface, and nanosize. The patents provide \"composition of matter\" protection for Starpharma's dendrimer technologies for drug delivery out to 2029 in the United States, which is the world's largest pharmaceutical market for several important drug classes.
