چکیده
The use of nanoparticles as novel diagnostic and therapeutic tools has gained immense attention in the field of cancer management. Nano-based therapies offer numerous possibilities such as enhanced drug solubility and stability, extended circulation times, tissue, cell, organelle-specific targeting, early detection and monitoring of diseases, stimuli-controlled drug release and co-delivery of multiple agents, all contributing to a safer drug delivery with minimized dose-limiting side-effects [1]. Several nanomedicines bearing these features are already on the market with many others following in the pipeline.

Mediating the potent ROS toxicity of acrolein in neurons with silica nanoparticles and a natural product approach
Acrolein, a very reactive aldehyde, is a culprit in the biochemical cascade after primary, mechanical spinal cord injury (SCI), which leads to the destruction of tissue initially unharmed, referred to as “secondary injury”. Additionally, in models of multiple sclerosis (MS) and some clinical research, acrolein levels are significantly increased. Due to its ability to make more copies of itself ...
متن کاملBeyond human subjects: risk, ethics, and clinical development of nanomedicines.
Clinical testing of nanomedicines presents two challenges to prevailing, human subject-centered frameworks governing research ethics. First, some nanomedical applications may present risk to persons other than research subjects. Second, pressures encountered in testing nanomedicines may present threats to the kinds of collaborations and collective activities needed for supporting clinical trans...
