Nanoparticle-Based Drug Delivery

This cluster of papers focuses on the development and application of nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems, particularly for cancer therapy. It covers topics such as nanocarriers, surface engineering of nanoparticles, magnetic nanoparticles, tumor targeting, polymeric nanoparticles, and the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. The research explores the synthesis, functionalization, and biomedical applications of various types of nanoparticles for drug delivery.

Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
