Popis: | Background: Potential therapeutic benefits of natural phytoconstituents and the emergence of nano-structured drug delivery systems have expanded the scope of enhanced chemotherapy with minimal adverse effects. Various in vivo and in vitro studies have revealed Resveratrol to be a potent anti-carcinogenic agent. Researchers are currently applying the concept of nano-science for enhancing the delivery of phyto-drugs like resveratrol, in order to carry the drug to the affected tissues and organs of cancer patients with much ease and efficiency. Methods: The current review emphasizes the use of inorganic nanoparticles for enhancing the delivery and efficacy of resveratrol into otherwise inaccessible tumorigenic tissues. Conclusion: The present review work summarizes a comprehensive update on the mechanism of actions of the resveratrol-based inorganic nanocomposite particles that are currently being studied against various cancer models. This work may be significant in laying the foundation for the future of metallic nanoparticles-based delivery and efficacy of phytochemicals in general and resveratrol in specific against non-invasive metastatic cancer. |
