Nanocarriers for Organ-Specific and Localized Drug Delivery summarizes targeted drug delivery systems and approaches to the major organs of the body. The book shows how drugs can be specifically targeted to the pathological area within an organ in a viable way. Employing pharmaceutical nanocarriers for drug delivery targeted to specific organs of the body requires a comprehensive knowledge of the disease site’s pathophysiology as well as physical, chemical and pharmaceutical techniques for modification or functionalization of the nanocarriers.
Combining theoretical principles and practical applications of various nanocarriers for organ-specific drug delivery, this is an important reference source for all those seeking to increase their understanding of how pharmaceutical nanocarriers are being used to create more efficient drug delivery systems.
- Outlines the underlying principles for the design of advanced pharmaceutical nanocarriers for organ specific drug delivery
- Includes guidance on how to exploit the pathophysiology and microenvironment of the diseased sites for targeted drug delivery
- Assesses the major challenges for creating pharmaceutical nanocarriers on a mass scale
