摘要
Cancer has caused the deaths of millions of people around the world.Negative side effects are associated with the conventional therapies currently used to treat cancer.This finding prompted scientists to investigate novel treatment approaches that offer a better b enefit-to-risk ra tio.Nanoparticles ra nging from 1 to 100 nm in size have emerged as promising tools in cancer therapy.Magnetic nanoparticles,in particular,have garnered attention for their unique magnetic properties and versatile biomedical applications.These goals are pursued by nanotechnology,which provides a vast array of nanoscale systems capable of combining therapeutic and diagnostic capabilities for real-time cancer treatment monitoring.Magnetic nanosystems stand out in the realm of nanotechnology due to their advanced nature and potential for magnetic properties.These qualities enable the application of these constructions in thermal therapy and magnetic resonance imaging.Additionally,because magnetic nanoparticles may be functionalized with therapeutic,contrast,and targeting agents and adjusted for increased specificity and reduced toxicity,they show marked promise as multifunctional nanoplatforms for cancer theranostics.A comprehensive description of the current designs,synthesis procedures,characterization techniques,and roles of magnetic nanoparticles as possible nanotheranostic agents is the aim of the current article.
