Description

by Lalit Kumar (Author)
 

Nanocarriers for Drug-Targeting Brain Tumors covers different types of nanocarriers and  their design and development for targeting drugs to the brain. The book also presents case studies and the mechanism of action of nanocarriers in drug targeting to a specific site. This helps researchers and clinicians understand the design, development and mechanism of action of nanocarriers. As brain tumors continue to be a significant health problem globally, and very complex for targeting drugs, conventional dosage forms are not very effective and side-effects are a major concern. Functionalized nanocarriers can address these problems.
Furthermore, the targeting of nanocarriers is preferred for reducing toxicity and improving the effectiveness of the drugs. However, there is a need for understanding the design and development of formulation with the mechanism of action of nanocarriers for brain targeting.
Provides information on the design and development of nanocarriers for targeting brain tumors Outlines the working principles of different nanocarriers for targeting brain tumors Includes case studies of different nanocarriers for targeting brain tumors
