The third most common cancer worldwide is colon cancer (CC). Every year, there more cases are reported, yet there are not enough effective treatments. This emphasizes the need for new drug delivery strategies to increase the success rate and reduce side effects. Recently, a lot of trials have been done for developing natural and synthetic medicines for CC, among which the nanoparticle-based approach is the most trending. Dendrimers are one of the most utilized nanomaterials that are accessible and offer several benefits in the chemotherapy-based treatment of CC by improving the stability, solubility, and bioavailability of drugs. They are highly branched polymers, making it simple to conjugate and encapsulate medicines. Dendrimers have nanoscale features that enable the differentiation of inherent metabolic disparities between cancer cells and healthy cells, enabling the passive targeting of CC. Moreover, dendrimer surfaces can be easily functionalized to improve the specificity and enable active targeting of colon cancer. Therefore, dendrimers can be explored as smart nanocarriers for CC chemotherapy. |
