Treating Wounds Using Nano Drugs Delivery Systems: Focusing On Metal Nanoparticles
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Managing the multi-stage biological process of wound healing can be challenging, especially in cases that are chronic. Metal nanoparticles have emerged as promising agents for improving wound healing via novel drug delivery systems as nanotechnology advances. This review examines the current trends and applications of nano-based drug delivery systems, with a particular emphasis on silver and gold nanoparticles. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are known for their strong antimicrobial properties, which speed up wound healing by reducing bacterial colonization and promoting tissue regeneration. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have significant advantages due to their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making them useful in chronic wound management. We investigate these nanoparticles' mechanisms of action, production methods, and promise to transform wound care, along with the difficulties encountered in implementing them in clinical settings. The analysis ends with a summary of potential future developments, with a focus on the use of nano-drug systems to personalized and precision medicine for the treatment of wound care.
