| Abstract:
|
Nanotechnology is a multidisciplinary d0omain which has provoked a significant impact on clinical medicine.
Throughout the years nanotechnology has evolved in various aspects rendering multiple applications in the
field of pharmaceutical development and overcoming the problems of conventional techniques.
Nanotechnology has already acquainted with oncology facilitating the treatment of tumours. Nanotechnology
posses various characteristics like preferential accumulation of chemotherapeutics in tumour, low distribution
in normal tissues, pharmacokinetics, biodistribution and clearanceproviding improved diagnosis and tumour
treatment. Though the field of oncology developed massively, limitations still exists in treating neuronal
tumours due to intricate structure of the blood–brain barrier. Nanotechnology with its feasibility to
attachvarious molecules on their surface and transform them into excellent transport vehicles with ability to
cross cell and/or tissue barriers, including the BBB. This review elaborately delivers the techniques and
strategies used to improve the diagnosis and to treat neuronal tumours unlike conventional cancer therapies.
