Nanoteranostikler

Abstract

Objective: In recent years, significant advances have been made in early diagnosis and treatment of diseases, thanks to advances in nanotechnology. With the birth of the concept of "theranostic", a concept that combines diagnostic imaging methods with therapeutic methods, cancer nanotherapy has started to rise rapidly. In this review, it is aimed to review the recent studies on these subjects by giving information about the theranostic concept, cancer nanotherapy, drug and gene delivery systems, nanoprobes, nanosensors, personalized therapy, and active and passive targeting. Result and Discussion: The use of nanostructures carrying various targeted drugs, genes and imaging agents has provided new possibilities for personalized medicine. In medicine, by overcoming biological barriers in the body with nanoscale drug delivery systems, targeted diagnosis with imaging systems and treatment with theranostics are provided. We believe that the use of nanoteranostic in medicine, which provides early diagnosis and treatment of cancer, which is the main cause of death in the world, will take up a wider place day by day.
