Abstract

Abstract: Cancer therapy has evolved in recent times on diagnostic and therapeutic grounds. Nanotechnology is the latest technique used to design nanoparticles having therapeutic applications in diseases like cancer. There are various such nanoparticles types made up of gold, silver, iron, and other compounds. Much recent are the bioinspired and theragnostic nanoparticles which exhibit good biocompatibility and much more effective drug delivery compared to the traditional drug delivery mechanisms. Bioimaging is a visualization process that aids to locate the target cancer cell or tumor-targeted delivered nanoparticles to understand and study the actual status of the disease conditions. In this review, we have discussed these various nanomaterials and its counterparts having applications in cancer.
