Investigation of Different types of Nanomaterials used in Cancer Research Paper

Investigation of Different types of Nanomaterials use in Cancer therapy - Research Paper causaeat advancements in the field of medicines and medical sciences but still it was difficult to control and suggest a proper treatment for cancer and according to the statistics, thither have 13% deaths all over the world caused by cancer (Heath and Davis 02).If we analyse the trend of cancer patients then the result shows that there have been straight increase in the number of cancer patients over last 70 years as compare to other diseases like heart attack, pneumonia or any other disease and the problem seemed to be out of control. Cancer could be cured by destroying the group of the damaged cells and stop supplying the blood to such(prenominal) cells so they may not grow further. But after several researches and studies chemotherapy and radiotherapy were introduced as a treatment for cancer. But the problem with these treatments is that these treatments not exactly affects the cancer ce lls but they also set the normal cells of the patients thus leaving dangerous side effectuate. It is almost predestined to occur the dangerous side effects of these chemotherapy treatments because it is a whole body treatment and in any way it will cause the harm. The most commonly used chemotherapeutic agents that are used are cyclophosphamide, fluorouracil, platinumbased compounds, anthracycline, and hydroxycamptothecin with quite harmful side effects.That was the reason that it was a real need to research and invent a new treatment for cancer as the previous one was not a suitable one. And the recent improvisations in the medical sciences and the invention of nanotechnology are most likely a great favorable reception for the scientists who have been researching to find a different solution for cancer besides chemotherapy. Nanotechnology is basically related with the study of delivery of drug molecules with a particular target in the affected or diseased areas of the patients. This treatment not only offers the targeted delivery of drugs but with that it protects from dreadful conditions and controls
