Review Article: Advancing Cancer Treatment With Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticle-Based Theranostics
Abstract
Cancer is a major cause of death globally. It is often detected at a late stage, while
conventional treatments are more effective during the early and middle stages.
These traditional treatments also cause many side effects due to the lack of
targeted delivery. Nanotechnology, particularly mesoporous silica nanoparticles
(MSNs), has been investigated for cancer treatment and diagnosis. Theranostics,
which combine therapy and diagnostics, can provide simultaneous treatment and
detection, potentially lowering mortality rates. A literature review was conducted
using keywords such as mesoporous silica nanoparticles, cancer, diagnosis, and
therapy in online databases like PubMed. The results of this review were analyzed
and compared with existing literature, aiming to provide a comprehensive
overview of mesoporous silica nanoparticles as current cancer treatment and
diagnosis.
Keywords: MSNs, cancer, theranostic, therapy, literature.
