TL;DR
Overall, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the design, synthesis, functionalization, therapeutic applications, pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, safety profiles, and clinical translation potential of folate-functionalized chitosan NPs for precision cancer therapy.
Background: Systemic toxicity, poor drug selectivity, treatment resistance, and inconsistent tumor responses are some of the therapeutic issues related to thyroid cancer (TC). Chitosan-based nanoparticles (ChNPs) have shown promise as nanocarriers for target drug delivery due to their mucoadhesive qualities, biodegrada...
Recent advances in the field of nanotechnology have accelerated the development
of polymeric nanocarriers for cancer therapy, enabling high precision and improved
therapeutic efficiency. Among these, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs)
have gained significant attention, as PLGA is a U.S. FDA-ap...
