A nanocarrier is nanomaterial being used as a transport module for another substance, such as a drug. Commonly used nanocarriers include micelles, polymers, carbon-based materials, liposomes and other substances. Nanocarriers are currently being studied for their use in drug delivery and their unique characteristics demonstrate potential use in chemotherapy. This class of materials was first reported by a team of researchers of University of Évora, Alentejo in early 1960's, and grew exponentially in relevance since then.

  • I nanocarrier sono delle nanoparticelle particolari, dedite al trasporto di agenti terapeutici o altre sostanze in siti specifici. I nanocarriers utilizzati esclusivamente come moduli di trasporto di farmaci si possono definire anche nanovettori. Tra le strutture più comuni che permettono l’attuazione di questo meccanismo si trovano micelle, liposomi, materiali polimerici e materiali carboniosi. Questi sistemi stanno venendo ampiamente studiati per le loro potenziali applicazioni nel campo della nanomedicina, dove si utilizzano come moduli di trasporto mirati. Sono capaci di trasportare un farmaco in un determinato punto del nostro organismo e rilasciarlo in quell’ambiente specifico, permettendo l’ingegnerizzazione di cure estremamente localizzate (come cure anti-tumorali che riescono ad intervenire solo nei siti danneggiati).
