The Future of Medicine: Nanodrugs
Nanodrugs have emerged
from the collaboration between nanotechnology and biomedical studies. The
development of nanodrugs aims to achieve specific drug
targeting and delivery, improved safety and biocompatibility, and improved
pharmacokinetic behavior. The promising properties of nanodrugs have led to
considerable improvements in the treatment of pulmonary, central nervous system and cardiovascular
diseases, vascular thrombosis; gene therapy,
nanonephrology, and cancer treatment.Intr

Fullerenes, their Properties, Medical Applications of them, and their Role in Drug Delivery
In 1985, three
scientists produced a fullerene, named C60, in fewer quantities by vaporizing
the graphite in the arc or the laser beam or with an electric current in a
low-pressure argon or helium atmosphere. Since then, they have gained
significant attention in different fields. The newly found molecule was named
by these scientists after Richard Buckminster Fuller, in 1967, he made a dome
of shape like the carbon cluster, whereas, in 1970, the possibility of
fullerenes existence wa
